Still a little cranky from having to take some stupid detour around all the stupid packs cropping up in the middle of Boreas, Cael was trying to hurry along so she could get home faster but it seemed to be taking ages to get anywhere. Normally whens he was having fun traveling didn't feel like it took this long. Ugh. Was she there yet? No. Double ugh.

Finding herself passing through some fruit trees, she suddenly realized this was where she ate that fruit with that Ash guy. Ashmedy? Ashmuh... Oh, whatever, didn't matter, who knew if she'd ever even see him again. Fruit eating was definitely not on her mind at present though. Or, rather, drinking as the older male had called it. Was it really drinking if you had to chew though? She didn't think so.

Casting the frivolous thoughts from her mind, Cael moved from a brique trot to a lope in an effort to get through this area as quickly as possible.

She found herself admiring the views of the surrounding territories of her Kingdom now, stretching her limbs as she was Hannibal day to babysit. The three devil chops kept her as busy as possible as her paws were full with their nurturing, protection and lessong. They were still petite and harmless but their lesson started young; both her and Hannibal wanted them to become strong, bring them glory and honor, make them proud for raising Queens and Kings, Demi-Gods and Demi-Goddesses. The bronze babe found herself on familiar tracks, The Orchard in which her and Ash found themselves wraped in their delicious, carnal sin. Fiery orange optics gazed upon the avrious fruits, they seek the light in their upturned wine glass shape, but in their own chaotic way. Were it not for pruning they would be more unruly still with small off shoots determined to grow fruits they could not support. They'd look more like a unruly, unkept mane in the mornings than trees. Even with their pruning the orchard is all the more beautiful for its wildness, though it was still a mytsery how they managed to stay in the neat rows in which they were first planted. And she could not help but wonder how long ago was that. Deep in thought, she could not help but to notice the figure that crossed her path, something was familiar about her, something she could not put her claw on. Beautiful day, isn't it? sultry purrs escapped her full, succulent lips, wrapped in their usual vampiric allure. Pardeon me, love, have we met before? haunt me down

Attention always wandering as her curious mind sought any and all types of stimulation, Cael noted the strange brown wolf approaching and slowed her pace, studying the jewelry-clad woman with a brow raised. There was something familiar about this woman. No one that enchanting and fancily dressed could be easily forgotten. "I suppose it is," she mused dryly, glancing at the relatively clear sky. She wouldn't be tricked by a pretty day into believing it was a good day though.

When the woman asked if they'd met before Cael squinted at her. "I wanna say yes. Hmm..." It took a second but suddenly she had it! "Ohh, like a year ago, we met in a big group that just sort of... appeared. I don't recall your name though, sorry."

Ah. Now the bronze Goddess remembered, it all came back to her, her little and young crush on Ashiel had lead her to a strange group yet quite amusing and interesting if she remembers well. You were the girl that wanted to have fun. she purred, fiery orange optics registered her movements as she, herself, came to  a half before the girl. No. Before the woman. She was a woman now. Full grown just as herself and she was wondering where life has brought her, after all a year passed since their last meeting and she seemed to do quite well for herself even though the babe was quite sure she could see the same devilish glow in her eyes as back in the way. Still willing to seek excitemenet with strangers, love? the babe offered two melodic hums right after the other as she waited for a reply, her excessively long tail curled on her spine, her presence screamed dominance and royalty no matter form what angle you dared to observe her. haunt me down

Studying the gold-clad woman, Cael watched the recognition flicker over her face. The words she spoke made Cael smirk and laugh softly, an impish look already creeping onto her features as she recalled how she'd been this way since basically the time she could talk and walk. "You know it," she laughed.

The dark woman didn't offer a name, but that was well and good enough, since Cael actually did have places to be and all. Thoughts of continuing on her way were cut off however when the lady, who Cael was pretty sure actually had a name that either started with an N or an M, asked if she still was willing to have fun with strangers. Skeptical but curious nonetheless, Cael eyed her for a moment before drawling, "It's possible that I am. Did you have anything in particular in mind?" Her curiosity would probably be the death of her.

Oh it was her alright. She could tell by the way that devilish glimpse in her eyes lighten up by her statements. She was the saucy little minx that she meet at the youth meetings, if her ememory serves her right they were planning to do some mischevious little things together. Speaking of which.. Did you lot managed to create some troubles back then? she voiced her thoughts in the same vampiric sonnates, melodious to the ear and though hissed they did not hold any real malice, if anything, they hold a small thint of devious intent as her next questions graced her regal audits. We are in an Orchard after all. This man, Ash, offered me a drink. I am quite sure we can find some of his stash hidden somewhere around here. she voiced her ideas slowly, fiery orange gaze scanning the area before her attention returned towards the woman Or perhaps shrooms tickle more of your fancy? haunt me down

Cael thought back for a moment. They'd gone off to steal some alcohol hadn't they? "Not as much as I'd have liked." It definitely hadn't been as great of a night as she'd first hoped, but it was still better than it'd been before hand.

Ahh, so she'd met Ash too, huh? So the guy really did make a habit of drinking with anyone who happened by. She couldn't decide if it was amusing or a little bit... sad. He seemed like he was dealing with something. That or he was just addicted. Both were sad for different reasons. "Drinking I am familiar with, shrooms not so much." both ideas showed promise she supposed. Cael decided to just roll with whatever. "You decide."

It ws a long time since the bronze Goddess had a moment for herself in which thoughts did not attack her mind contantly; worries about her devil chops, about her man, about the High Lord seeming digust for her and the half albino man, every was a mess of information within her mind that she has to contantly rip apart and register, ponder, file, and register again and so on and forth. When was the last time she took a moment to just enjoy life? She could not even remember. There was a moment with Leera where they shared laughter however even then both of their situation where heavy. Shrooms it is. she purred in a sultry tone, her chest vibrating with the sonnates as her plush, coral tongue escaped her full, ebon lips only to wash over them once. She turned on her heel, shifting the weight of her reptilian body, as her hips moved in a seductive tango, We will find it in the woods, come. she purred softly, urging the other to follow and yet never once did she glanced back to see if she did or not for she already knew that the minx was always seeking trouble. Or was it that trouble always seemed to seek her? You want to look for the red ones with green specs. Those are the real deal. haunt me down

"Shrooms it is" the other woman crooned. Alrighty, looked like Cael was about to have a fun new experience. Or, at least a new experience, the fun part was yet to be determined. It was probably a good things her parents couldn't find out about her shenanigans anymore. Unless when they were gone they were able to know all about what she was doing, in which case... Nope, that didn't stop her either.

"Sweet," Cael chirped, padding after the exotic woman all too happily. "Red with green specs, got it." waltzing through the trees with hardly a care in the world, suddenly she'd entirely forgotten how irritated she'd been about walking home. Looked like she wasn't going to go home just yet, there was trouble to make and questionable choices right at her paws and she wasn't one to let such things escape. Perusing the forest floor, she found a good amount of partially wilted grass, some moss, a few funny orange bits of fungi on a sapling... No mushrooms though.

It should at least allow her to unwind quite a bit, this experience with her new...companion, yes, let's call it that for now. What was your name again? sultry tones were cast towards the other female who eagerly followed behind her. Her brow rose in a high arche as her pace lessened, pointing the female towards the right as she shall cover the left side of the forest. Dark spruce forest frowned on either side of the frozen waterway. The trees had been stripped by a recent wind of their white covering of frost, and they seemed to lean toward each other, black and ominous, in the fading light. A vast silence reigned over the land but alas, they were on a self imposed mission to find the shrooms. The bronze Goddess was not any more fortunate than the  other woman, all she managed to find was fungi and the babe could see worms nearly a foot in length crawling in and out of the porous stalks. The stench from the growth was nauseating and overpowering, utterly sickening; she had to depart from it. It was not like her to give up but a quick glance towards the other girl made her realize that she hasn't found anything either. Maybe a drink th--- mid sentence stop as her fiery orange gaze fell upon a little red dot in the distance, That's it! haunt me down

"Caelestis," came the automatic reply. "And yours?" she still really wanted to know if she was totally wrong about an N or M name. Apparently her memory wasn't anything exceptional, that that was fine, since neither was the other woman's. They'd only met once anyway.

Coming up with a big ol nothing, Cael huffed and kept looking, searching all around a rotting log she found but finding nothing but round white mushrooms she knew nothing about. Probably not edible. Just as she was beginning to feel a little like all hope was lost, she turned as her companion exclaimed, "That's it!"

Turning from the big patch of nothing at all important, Cael went to see what the shrooms they'd been looking for were like. Little crimson splotches against the otherwise green and brown forest were easy enough to spot, so at least she knew she probably hadn't accidentally passed any. "So you just eat them?"

You may call me Nephthys. she coeed softly, her tones were as melodious and harmonious as the sonnates of the birds. The bronze babe might now know this woman well but how else would one make friends and pleasant memories to recall upon old age if one those not take risks? More or less so, at least the mushrooms shall help ease the tension and hopefully something good shall come out of her little escapede from the responsabilities of the normal world within her Kingdom.  How else? a smirk crossed the woman beautiful visage as her fiery orange optics swallowed the woman hole, You take small bits of it and chew. It should not take long. she cooed her, encouraged her, like the little devil on her shoulder and if there was any doubt present in the other femme mind then she shall ease it all by trying to first. It was not get first tango with recreational drugs however shedid heard those particular mushrooms could produce more...interesting effects such as visual and auditory halucinations. This should be interesting. Like this. her regalian leaned towards the mushroom, she gave a wiff or two to make sure of its origins before she took a small bite of the head. Chewing and chewing and chewing, all the while her gaze never left the other woman. She was observing her movements as a smile spread across her visage. haunt me down

Nepthys. That was a different sounding name. Cael supposed she liked it though. She'd encountered all sorts of names and suspected that each had different origins, more common to certain regions. A good reason to enjoy wandering the many lands the world had to offer.

Thys explained how to do it, and Cael watched as the other woman demonstrated by taking a bite first and chewing up the bit of crimson mushroom. Needing no more prompting, Cael padded another step close and took a bite herself, slowly chewing it up and wondering what she ought to expect this thing to do. Drugs weren't like, her thing, but she was more than happy to try most things at least once. "How long does it take to work? What's it do?" most people would ask that first, huh?

The problem with the hallucinations were their unpredictability. The autumn babe felt like she'd stand more of a chance if they were always the same thing showing up at the same time whenever she used such recreational medicine. Her mind however was far more creative - her "new friends" could show up at any time and be anything. I see you are the type that jumps head first.she chuckled full heartedly, fiery, passionate gaze locked onto the woman lenses as she took another small bite. It should make you feel really good she commented as she chewed, small droplets of saliva dripping down her chin You will hear things and see things. she continued, expecting the woman to take another bite as well before she lunged herself back there. Everyone sees different stuff. she pressed on, her voice a joy to listen to, like tiny bells hitting each other in harmony. She took another bite before her paws jumped on her tail, pressing on tthe fur. Whaaa haunt me down

"I see you are the type that jumps head first."

Cael shrugged, busy chewing for a few seconds before she swallowed and smirked, "Life's too short not to be a little bit daring, isn't it?" Truthfully Caelestis never really though of herself as reckless. Maybe a little bit impulsive, maybe quick to act, but those didn't seem like bad things to her. The time between thought and action was just much shorter for her, and she was the type to try anything once. Probably a good thing her parents were no longer around to worry over her and her behavior.

Listening to the woman talk about the mushrooms, Cael took another bite as her new acquaintance did. "Should be interesting then," she mused as she finished chewing, waiting to see what would happen and silently hoping it would be as good as she'd been told. Things were starting to look... different, but in a way she couldn't quite put words to. And yet, nothing had changed at the same time. "You do this sort of thing often?" Cael suspected the answer was yes.

The problem with the hallucinations the mushroom induced were their unpredictability. The bronze babe felt like she'd stand more of a chance if they were always the same thing showing up at the same time. Her mind however was far more creative - her "new friends" could show up at any time and be anything. And they wer enot far behind. The sudden movement of her paws pressing on the egyptian silk fur of her tail was nothing but a twitch, the buttons were switced on and she could not help but let a chuckle erupt form the pit of her stomach, one that she did not seem to contain. Hey. she continued to chuckle between words, Hey, touch this. she could not stop now, it was full on and within her bizarre mind on mushrooms, she had never touched anything softer before in her life. Probably, if she was asked, she would even swore on it. Her gaze remained locke don her golden decorated tail and before her very eyes, it was moving, in shapes, like snakes but..nicer? What was for certain was the her tail was moving in tandems of a song that she started to hum aphonicly. Guess the mushrooms took away her singing voice? She certainly did not gave a damn but she was desperate to keep touching the softness, she kept poking it, stabbing it with her claws and stomping with her teacup paws. Isn't it the softest thing you ever touched? her paw rose to her pretty maw with an oops before she continued to chuckle. Like.. she erupted into a full on giggle, ...like grass? she had no idea why that sentence was particulary funny but for her, oh, for her it made her erupt into laughter, everything she said was hilarious. haunt me down
