Fantasy Skin to Scales (Modern Fantasy Dragon RP)

[seasonedcat]

Coffee? Why did Cleo want to meet at coffee? These silly english customs always alude Bembe, why is coffee even a place you meet up it's a drink?! And to try to pass it off as some fancy place they put it in french, it was one of the few french words Bembe did know, cafe. It seems that she may never wrap her head around this. She had no idea where she would find coffee so she decided her best bet would to be to meet up with Cleo at her house. She had been there once before when the girl first moved, she had provided assistance in carrying some of the furniture into the respect rooms, or helping doing some chores around the house. She came to Pearl to deliver some fish every now and then and used those silly phone boxes to call up Cleo so they could meet after she found out the girl was moving to one of the ports she visited.

Cleo and her had met when Cleo visited her island while she was backpacking trying to find herself or something. Cleo had stayed in her house during her stay at the island and the other girl taught her some of the english customs while Bembe taught her a few of her own. The island didn't have much of a post, not many people sending them letters to begin with, however the letters that came in few that were sent were picked up in the main land by Bembe, giving the two a slow but a way to communicate.

Now she was delivering more fish to Pearl and was on her way to visit Cleo at coffee. which she had no idea the location of. So she walked down the streets in the cold rain shivering under her thick winter jacket walking towards her friends house. However, lucky her, she caughts sight of Cleo racing down the street on a bike. Bembe smiled her huge toothy grin and called out to the girl, "Morn' gal, how ya' doin' now?!" the other girl would most surely recognize the others thick, and hard to miss, accent so Bembe knew the girl would hear and listen to her booming voice. She waved at the girl not seeing that there was a little man that she would most likely hit if she continued on her course.

Pausing for a moment, his hand falling back to his side from its grip on the door, hearing the girl he had smiled at ramble an ill choreographed greeting. Alex smoothly turned his body back to facing Ash, checking from curiosity to see if she was foaming at the mouth, as a sign of a seizure. Nope, no foam. She simply seemed to be a bit on the shy end, Alex supposed.

"Hm," He hummed as though mulling over her recovery statement, "I suppose you did seriously just say that." His tone mimicked her playfully as he casually brushed off the beginnings of an awkward conversation. "Pleasure to meet you Ashlynn. I'm Alex, short for Alexandru-- which is quite the mouthful." He chuckled.

Flashing his teeth in a friendly grin the dark brunette smoothly raised his right arm in gesture for a formal acquaintance. "Must be quite the song to invoke such a sweet smile."

"I'm almost jealous."

Ash gritted her teeth in mild irritation at his mocking tone, then tried her best to smile. "It was just a pleasant memory of more innocent days, that's all." She settled into a less relaxed and more attentive position in her chair, and took a deep breath before replying. "Alexandru, huh?" She said, trying to ignore the fact that she had completely messed up, "Well, pleasure to meet you, then."

The song wasn't long enough, as always, and as the final note faded out Cleo was left with a boring stretch of silence as the previous MP3 file ended and a new one began. However, it was long enough for a single voice to rise above the rain, one that was about as familiar as it was unique. Rich and smooth like chocolate, Cleo could easily pick it out in a crowd.

Bembe smiled her huge toothy grin and called out to the girl, "Morn' gal, how ya' doin' now?!"

Cleo turned her head towards the sound, momentarily forgetting she was riding a bike at high speeds through a crowded streets. Lacquer skin and wrapped in a winter coat... had to be her for sure. It was strange that she was not at the Rose n' Thorn Cafe, as they had arranged, but she didn't care... it was a delight to see her friend again after so long. She raised up a hand to return the wave and cheerfully called out to her. "Bembe, mate!"

Better slow down, she thought while returning her gaze to where she was going. That's when she noticed three things at the same time. 1, There was now a person in front of the previously empty library doors; 2, he was less than a meter away; and 3, she had not seen hair that purple since high school. "OSHIT! WATCHOUT!" she blurted out in warning but it was too late. In one last effort to avoid a collision Cleo swerved to the side, her bike tires screeching in protest as they caught on the pavement. Cleo could feel her center of gravity shifting out of her control as she and her bike flew sideways in a collision course for the poor man. (or the ground should Jiahao avoid the Cleo-missile)

*Cleo doesn't have to hit your character, it's up to you and how fast Jiahao's reflexes or superpowers are >;3

I don't know what Cleo's wearing so I'm gonna wing it. People need to find out and band together eventually, haha.

"OSHIT! WATCHOUT!"

With the apathetic glance of the male's tired eyes directed to the source of the seemingly ear-piercing exclamation, Jiahao only sucked his teeth in vexation as her figure got closer and surrounding background characters began to train their sights on the dangerous series of events. Lacking any second thought, he casually took a step back into the library, standing at the door and thus keeping it open. This caused the girl to take a harsh tumble into the cemented ground which was probably loud enough for others in the building to hear. Before the boy did anything else he caught a partial glimpse of a familiar marking on the unnamed girl's right thigh, one with an electric yellow hue that most likely signified a lightning-based affinity. His immediate recognition came from that fact that he had a similar marking hidden behind his thick tresses of hair.

Jiahao turned his head slightly in search of his dark haired 'friend', only to find him talking up yet another random girl who unsurprisingly didn't react too positively. So far the day had gone the opposite of how Jiahao wanted it to go, from getting completely soaked to almost getting completely toppled over by an annoying girl with her annoying bike. If there was one thing to count on it would be Alex giving him a donut but with the way things were going, that seemed pretty unlikely to happen. Letting out an inaudible sigh the male returned his harsh, judging gaze to the fallen female. Seriously, what the hell was her problem.

"Cào nî zûzōng shíbā dài," he stated cooly, not expecting her to understand what it meant–but even if she did, he wouldn't care either way.

"Pleasant memory hm," Alex's smile still firmly in place, despite the girls somewhat soured reaction. Oh well, if she can't handle a little fun she definitely does not belong around me. His thoughts growing passive as he figured what she was feeling, or at the very least sensing her discontent. His hand moving from its hovering position to latch onto his messenger bag, brushing off her ignoring of the gesture.

"Ah, well I--" Whatever the brunette was attempting to say was interrupted as he hear the door open, and a loud crash. Jiahao had pushed backwards into the building avoiding a speeding girl with a quickness. Meeting his sopping friends eyes he winced, whatever playful things he was planning next were dried up on his tongue. Last thing we need is a sugar low Jiahao.

"I," The word was stretched out as he turned his eyes back to the somewhat irritable girl, "Think I must be going now. Seems as though someone might have possibly spotted your dazzling smile and fallen out of shock." His joke seemed to fall a little flat as his tone darkened a bit with the change of mood. With a casual wave to the girl he approached Jiahao, "Que hiciste ahora?"

Ash gave out a large exhale through her nose and nodded. "Alright. I'm not here to stop you on your way to...wherever your going. Hopefully I'll see you around, yes?" She gave a small smile and waved as she slipped deeper into the library. Walking among rows of books--some dusty, some newer--she approached the specimens in the back. Slipping her headphones back on--switching to a quiet older blues song--the gaze of her eyes settled on the display cases. There were mostly bugs, due in part to how a library this size wouldn't have such a large collection of things other than such. Assorted beetles and cicadas sat in long glass cases, with the walls filled with boards of butterflies and moths. There was even a large, out-of-place centipede in the most right case. Despite the specimens mostly being once-living small scale animals, there were still some plants. Pressed flowers and leaves sat in open books on tables, breaking the flow of the bug exhibits. It all created a odd sense of harmony throughout the back. But then there was the twig. A birch twig with two leaves at one end. And that was it. There was nothing notable about this piece of wood except for a carved heart you'd find in any other tree. Ash looked at this branch for a long time, trying to figure out why they'd have something so unimpressive on display. Passing it off as nothing, she walked over to look at that centipede again.

Glimpsing the pavement approaching, Cleo abandoned her bike and quickly tucked in her arms and legs defensively. By the looks of it, she seemed experienced in this sort of thing. She rolled across the sidewalk for a distance before losing momentum and skidding to a stop. With a cough she pulled herself up into a sitting position and, after waiting for her vision to realign, looked around for her bike. She soon spotted it, overturned and leaning precariously against a lightpost with its wheels slowly rotating in the air. She squinted at it, trying to determine if it broke in the collision but was soon distracted by a voice beside her.

"Cào nî zûzōng shíbā dài," he stated cooly, not expecting her to understand what it meant–but even if she did, he wouldn't care either way.

"Huh?" she mumbled, looking at the man while rubbed the back of her head.

Sadly she didn't understand a word of what he just said. All she knew was that it sounded like something in Chinese. Or... Japanese? Korean? She really didn't know but judging by his face he wasn't happy.

That was bad.

Not so much because she caused an inconvenience but because she was trying to hold in her laughter. She twisted her lips together in a valiant attempt to keep it in, her face going red from the effort, but it didn't take much for her discipline to break. It all burst out in a huge guffaw and before she knew it she was bent over in laughter. Well, as much as one could be while sitting down on pavement. "Crikey that was a real bingle!" she said once she had recovered enough to speak and wiped a tear out of her eye. "That was a close one! I really thought I was gonna get you for sure... hah, should have seen the look on your face, mate! Glad you're okay though!"

The same fortune didn't seem to have befell her. Most of her skin was scuffed up from the pavement and her knees and hands were bleeding lightly, though she didn't seem to notice it much. The only place she seemed to mind was the tattoo-esque marking on the side of her right thigh, which she gingerly pressed down on. Though she didn't know the true meaning of it, she was made constantly aware of how sensitive it was.

Bingle --> accident or collision.

Bembe approached her fallen friend with booming laughter. She gave the girl a rough slap on the shoulder, "Ya' need to watch where ya' goin' Cleo! You almost hit de' little man!" Bembe spoke faster than a local and with her accent to boot her speech could be hard to decipher, and she had been asked to repeat herself more than once on the different occasions of her being in english communities. So the two males standing in the doorway near them may have heard a jumble of thickly worded blable if they hadn't been listening closely.

"Always keep eye on de' road they say in my island. Or you hit little man. I say de' saying applies here." she once again roared in laughter as she picked the smaller girl up by her armpits with ease and stood her on her two feet. She then turned to the two males one at which was glaring at her friend, "Little man! No need to get yer panties in a twist eh'? You no get hit, and you watch person who almost hit you hit ground, fair trade, no?" Bembe ended with a short, loud laugh giving the little man a wide questioning grin.

While studying the centipede, Ash felt a soft tap on her shoulder from behind. Turning around and removing her headphones, she found herself facing a pale brown haired girl about the same age as her wearing a tan sweater. Before Ashlynn could ask anything, the girl piped in. "Hi, I'm Penny, the librarian's niece. I've been helping out at the library occasionally. So, you need help finding anything?" She chirped, an unbelievably goofy smile spreading across her face. In response to this Ash merely shook her head. The smile on Penny's face fell quickly, then she gave a firm nod. "Well, if you need help, I'll be by the non-fiction books," Penny confirmed. "Don't hesitate to ask!" With that the girl shuffled away from Ash, leaving her again with the specimens. She then turned to look again at the basic twig kept there for seemingly no reason.

Three dropouts and one uncertain. I’m not sure if everyone would like to, but I think it’s for the best if we put a pin in this for a bit. Partially because we’re now short a few, and partially because I’m on vacation with my only way to certainly access here being an IPad, and I hate typing with a tablet.
