LAST YEARS WISHES ARE THIS YEAR'S APOLOGIES Kalypso had settled significantly since the stranger had first intruded. She remained coiled in the blanketing darkness. But the woman was trained well enough not to betray her tense muscles. They were eased, but eager to be brought to attention. She was a dancer before the performance. Flaming eyes were incandescent with renewed vigor. They focused entirely on the curiosity that had presented itself - what had brought her out? It was flattery that fell from the lips of the girl. Syllables fell into the air from an eager student searching a mentor. Knowledge... I seek it. The merle queen wanted nothing more than to scoff at the girl. Knowledge? Search elsewhere, hon. But the words didn't escape from Kalypso's thoughts. They clung to the lobes of her brain and her lips did not part to allow them passage. Not even the usual quip entered into the air. In fact, the Darksidy woman did not say anything. Moments passed in the swirling darkness. Her eyes danced across the girl that had presented herself in such a plain manner. It was something that Kalypso was appreciative of. The girl was not one for idle chit chat. She knew what she wanted, and knew how to get it. Perhaps that was why Kalypso would break her own traditions: Hmm... Molten eyes gave the girl another once-over, sizing her up yet again. I suppose so; you don't seem utterly incompetent. Sedition is always so much more fun with a partner. Her voice had only just finished resonating in the night wind when another cracked the air. Merle head turned to the source of the disturbance, ears quickly pricking forward. I really hope I'm intruding. Oh yay... more company. Perhaps we'll create a band of very merry thieves. Her contralto voice was less than enthusiastic about the addition to their meeting in the solitary night. Perhaps this new stranger would be less needy? |
