The search for a song (C'bana)

[Stormelle]

Fana'lalii chuckled but she stopped short at Lwasana'Cayimaii's question. "I..." she hesitated, there where probably several reasons she could say no but as she spun the flower slightly inbetween her thumb and 'finger' her mind was decided for her, "I'd love to." she smiled now as she looked up from her flower.
"Which ever is easier for you." she said, meaning in the way she meet him, she could probably go with her but then a glimmer of gold reminded her. "Ah....But I should stay, though we're in the middle of a forest I would probably be chased if I left it here unguarded..."

(Oooo, that's exciting. Well...Somewhat by sound anyway...^^; )

[Janalee]

At Fana'lalii's answer, Lwasana'Cayimaii smiled excitedly, and perhaps a bit victoriously; when she hears the last statement though, she raises an eyebrow and can't help asking, "Chased?" Afraid to give her any time to change her mind though, she shrugs off her curiosity and continues nonchalantly, "It'd probably be better that way any way; if he happens to have gone off from where I left him, I'd just end up looking foolish for leading you to an empty glen and forcing you to hunt for him with me."
She smirks, before standing up. "Shall I fetch him now then?"


(The seed, or the seed collecting? *grins* I don't know that it's as exciting as digging up cacti with pick axes, but it certainly had its moments. Hard to beat a job where you get to walk about randomly and look at plants, even if it did seem tedious after awhile. ^^)

[Stormelle]

"Alright...Umm..." she paused, not sure what she would do while she waited. "I suppose I'll just go back to my playing while your gone...It'll make it easier to find me again anyways." she smiled, not really sure if there was something she should be doing.

(I dunno...Both? ^^; Sorry for the short reply...I'm soooo tired today....)

[Janalee]

Lwasana'Cayimaii nods agreeably and smiles. "Sounds like a good idea; you can never give me too much help when I'm trying to find someone." She winks, before trotting back the way she came; as she gets to the first tree though, she looks over her shoulder at the mare. "I'll try to make it as fast as I possibly can. See you again shortly!" With one last nod, she takes off at a brisk pace, sending old leaves into the air as she quickly disappears into the forest.


(*smiles* No worries, I can certainly understand being tired.)

[Stormelle]

(And now I'm an odd combination of happiness, annoyance, and erm...Other things...Gah...>.<; )

Fane'lalii smiled, "Of corse!" she smiled and as the other mare vanished she put the flower, as gently as was possible, into her mouth and troted back to her harp. Placing the flower on the ground she watched it for a moment as a sudden burst of wind made the petals dance.
Sudden inspiration struck her as she reared back onto her hind legs and pulled her harp to her, she began to play a melody that often seemed to dance within her head, again humming softly as she did so.

(Hrm..I think what she's playing may be somewhat remanisent of 'Once Upon a December' www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vFS8Gz708o Though I'm not sure why...)

[Janalee]

Nearly half an hour later, a distant, teasing conversation starts drawing closer to the clearing.
"Do you have your eyes closed yet?"
"By which you must mean, 'am I obscuring your seeing anything at all,' and I think you already know. Why the secrets?"
"Oh, I already startled one C'bana today, I thought it only fair if I surprised you too."
"Another...?"
The stallion stops abruptly as the music finally finds its way through the lull in their chatter; realizing that there was no point in leading him on any more, Lwasana'Cayimaii moves the tip of her tail from his eyes, and instead faces him with a triumphant grin. Besides the confusion, his expression was nearly impossible to read; someone who knew him really well though might notice a mixture of disapproval of Lwasana'Cayimaii's methods and pleasure at seeing the lovely musician again. With an encouraging nudge, the mare trots forward energetically, leaving the stallion to follow a few steps behind her in his stately fashion. Deciding they were finally close enough, she calls out cheerfully, "Fane'lalii! Meet Mwrey'du'Simba; Mwrey'du'Simba, Fane'lalii."
Coming before Fane'lalii, the stallion goes into a full bow, his face once again completely reserved and respectful. "Well met, m'lady."


(Hm, that is a rather odd combination; but at least it has happiness too, right? I'm going to hope I'm not part of the annoyance... *half grin* And I think 'because it's pretty' is reason enough to play anything, really. ^^)

[Stormelle]

(No, no, you're not. Tis my friends...Namely one of my guy friends. *throws a pillow at him* Hehe, probably...And also my extreme love for that song...x3 )

Fane'lalii, who had just been finishing one of her songs as she heard the voices paused, sitting back once more she look away from her harp and toward the two approaching C'bana, she smiled at Lwasana's cheerfulness and peered curiously at Mwrey as he bowed before returning his bow with one of her own.
"It's a pleasure to meet you." she smiled again, not truly sure what more to say.

[Janalee]

Lwasana'Cayimaii smirks amusedly to herself as she watches both of them; apparently getting them together in the same place was only going to be her first step after all. Trying to nudge them into a conversation, she says to Mwrey'du'Simba, "I had been mentioning to Fane'lalii how beautifully you thought she played before."
He looks at her for a brief moment, wondering what else she had been mentioning to the mare; dismissing the thought though, he turns back to Fane'lalii with a slight smile that was more in his eyes than his face. "Indeed; I've doubts she could have said enough in that regard. What were you playing just now, as we disturbed you?"
Though he didn't glance at her, Lwasana'Cayimaii knew the last few words were probably added as a subtle chastisement for her. Completely ignoring it though, she smiles at the other mare, simply pleased and a touch surprised that Mwrey'du'Simba had chosen to ask a question at all.


(Ah; I've some more pillows here if you need them then. *smiles* And sorry for disappearing for a bit; a friend of mine was in town, and things got a bit busier than I was expecting. And I may be gone for the next two days as well, just so you know. ^^)

[Stormelle]

Fane'lalii turned her head toward Lwasana as she spoke and tehn turned it back toward Mwrey'du'Simba again. "You're to kind, truly, I don't think I've ever been complimented so many times in one day." she said, smiling now. "I'm not entirely sure of the title, it's a song Stormelle enjoys...Something to the effect of December. She loves when I play it." she smiled once more.

"So..." she paused attempting to think of a question. "What brought you two here anyways? Not that I'm displeased, but I'm curious."

(*grins* Nah...I'm good now...But we'll see what tommorow brings. Tis fine. ^.^ And thanks for the warning!)

[Janalee]

"Besides the obvious answer of Lwasana'Cayimaii now..."
At his pause, she looks at the stallion, and laughingly adds, "And of you beforehand..."
Mwrey'du'Simba shrugs and smiles noncommittally at her response, before continuing, "Nothing more or less than the wind. I simply went were it led me, and it brought the sound of your songs to me. I'm glad you are not displeased though."
Not entirely sure that his response told enough, the mare leans in towards Fane'lalii in a teasing, mock-confidentiality, and tells her, "We came to see the festivities, and I suspect he was wandering off to avoid my dragging him out to be too social, little good it did him." She winks at her, before smirking at Mwrey'du'Simba, who maintains his noncommittal expression and his silence.

[Pega]

((OOC: Juniper shakes the Scepter of Awesomeness at you!! This means, well... that you're doing AWESOMELY!! Keep up the good work!

))

[Stormelle]

Fane'lalii chuckled slightly "Are you talking about Juniper's festival?" she questioned them both, again, as Lwasana'Cayimaii made mention of the fetivities. "Or my playing...?" she added after a moment, tilting her head to the side slightly.

(>.<' )

[Janalee]

"Juniper? That sounds about right..." She glances at Mwrey'du'Simba as she trails off questioningly, and he replies by nodding calmly and affirmatively. Glad to have the correct name, she turns back to Fane'lalii with a smile. "I'm afraid we haven't actually had the pleasure of meeting her yet; I just figured we shouldn't miss an opportunity to go to something called the 'Festival of Awesomeness.'" She winks merrily, before continuing, "If I had heard of a festival for your music though, I most certainly would want to attend that too."
"Would prefer to attend that, actually." At his soft-spoken comment, Lwasana'Cayimaii can't hide the surprise from her expression; she does manage to bite her tongue to stop herself from giggling happily though.


(Not something I did again, is it? I'm beginning to wonder if there should be a meter showing how well or poorly I'm roleplaying... *half grin* But, yay for Scepters of Awesomeness! ^^)

[Stormelle]

"Her parents are in the same herd as my own. She's quite silly, not that it's bad but this Festival of Awesomeness was deffinetly something good for her to put her energy into." Fane'lalii hadn't really meant a festival to her music, she'd probably be much to nervous to do such a thing but perhapse if she was sure her family and friends where present.

"Thank you..." she said, bowing her head slightly. "So..." she again came to blank, she seemed to be doing that a lot today, which was especially abnormal.

(Oh, no, no! My little face was about my short reply...^^; And yes, huzzah!)

[Janalee]

At Fane'lalii's pause, Lwasana'Cayimaii chuckles softly and returns to her first comments. "Silliness with a purpose is something I can approve of; maybe I'll have to run off and find this Juniper sometime soon."
The mare glances at Mwrey'du'Simba to see if he approved of her proposal; if he saw a hint in it though, he gave no outward sign besides looking at her curiously. A sudden, mischievous thought flashes through her mind as she looks at him, quickly followed by an impish grin. "You know, I just noticed- your feet and face are similar to the color of Fane'lalii's harp, and her colors are similar to your mask. Maybe you should let her try it on for fun?"
At her suggestion, Mwrey'du'Simba can only gaze in wide-eyed shock, too flustered to think of anything to say in response, especially in front of Fane'lalii. Knowing full well she was going to hear about this later, but more than willing to enjoy her fun now, Lwasana'Cayimaii turns to the other mare with a gleam in her eye. "What do you think?"


(Nothing wrong with short replies; just wait till Lwasana'Cayimaii decides to leave Mwrey'du'Simba to his own devices. ^^)
