Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Velcora, "I'm a grandmas."

---> Cheliyi found out that Hiresh is going to be adopted by Veara and Llani! Grandbaby :o

Velcora shuffles over to you and shyly takes your hand in their own.

Hiresh arrives in a cone of sparkling light.
Drifting upon argent wings, a silvery aura follows in the wake of a youthful strix as it manifests from the ether.
Flapjack the fox holds his head out to Hiresh for petting.

---> look Hiresh

She is a glistening mugwump lunar demigoddess of dark green with great splotches of black upon her extremities.  She stands at about average height being five and three-fifths feet.  Her lips and hair match in their absence of color, both shock white in appearance, while her eyes are the color of fresh amber.  Around her eyes and lips are sprinkled stars of black framing her feature.  Her face rests in the state of a slight frown with her brow slightly furrowed.  Her appearance is professional with nails neatly trimmed and hair pulled tight behind her head in a bun. A lush fragrance dances about her as she stands awash in the wild, prismatic colours of a truefavour from Maylea, Bloom of Serenity. Fading in and out like flickering lights, clusters of ethereal mooncloak butterflies trail in her wake, heralding the blessings of Lisaera, the Silver Goddess.
She is wearing:
a masculine pin-stripe suit cut for a woman
a small diamond lotus-shaped earring through her left ear
a small diamond lotus-shaped earring through her right ear
a translucent sapphire ring of intricately etched winds
a feminine watch of silver and copper
a ring of bone and fire opal
a flawless rainbow crown
a smooth pearl ring
silver suede sandals adorned with moonflowers
a storm glass amulet
a trout totem ring
a trout totem ring
a golden-leaf necklace bound with a moonfire gem
storm-glass prayer beads of the Silver Goddess
a small translucent blossom
an unfurling blossom
a silver-banded pin
a backpack embroidered with wildflowers and bumblebees
brightly embroidered sunflower stockings
a trout totem ring
an eyepatch of the aethers

Hiresh beams broadly.

You blink.
You stare blankly at Velcora.
With rising excitement, you say, "Did not say that she is a -mugwump- love."

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "This is Hiresh."
Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "Oh!"
Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "Right!"

You smile brightly at Hiresh, your frills puffing with joy.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh smiles and says, "Oh, I am a changeling."

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "She isn't always."

Velcora's mouth turns up as their face breaks into a smile.

Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say, "Is fine, is fine."

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "Mugwump is my second favorite form!"
The corners of Hiresh's mouth turn up as she grins mischievously.

Warmly, you say, "Still, is always a good shape to have."

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "It is a -very- good shape."
Velcora nods their head emphatically.
Velcora nods their head sagely.
Velcora's body and features begin to melt like wax, then solidifies into a mugwump.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says to you, "It's so exciting to meet you!"

Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Hiresh, "Ah, uh, anyways. Hello! I am Cheliyi. Is nicely to meet you as well."

Lashing out with his long tongue, Flapjack the fox ensares a nearby fly. Quickly capturing it in his mouth, Flapjack the fox chomps down hard, and a crunching sound reaches your ears.

Hiresh blinks incredulously at Flapjack the fox.

Flapjack the fox beams broadly.

Velcora's mouth turns up as their face breaks into a smile.

Amused, you say to Velcora, "They are tallers than me, I think."

---> look me

Small and cheery, she is a glistening mugwump tidal demigoddess of axolotl descent with pearly skin and six mauve-tinted frills. Her stature is not unnatural for a mugwump, barely above 4'3" and sturdy with a clear fitness that implies years of climbing about trees and swimming through swaths of swamp. A messy bob of magenta hair flows from her scalp, tangled with shiny knickknacks, small origami, and albino feathers. Carefully woven, a single braid hangs from her disheveled bangs, affectionately clipped with a small, sapphire bead. Affixed to one frill is a tiny set of bone chimes, so small that it almost seems like an earring. Her skin has a soft, oily sheen akin to most mugwumps, but strangely enough, the skin becomes abruptly dry and brittle in some places. Most notable of these places are her forearms and her eyes, her complexion discolored to an uncomfortable beige, rough to the touch. Glittering mists soothe the damaged areas, ebbing and flowing in a constant tide across her skin. Her eyes fare no better than her skin, the traditionally midnight orbs a clouded, milky grey. When caught at a certain angle, they seem to almost glow with a vibrant light that radiates from the mugwump's very being. A bright grin reveals normal teeth with suspiciously wooden canines, while thick bark clings to the soles of her webbed feet. A long, thick tail lined with a frilled fin twitches occasionally behind her, stirring up dust and litter with each sweep. The pale frills that would usually extend from her tail tip are torn and scarred, the wounds long since healed. A lush fragrance dances about her as she stands awash in the wild, prismatic colours of a truefavour from Maylea, Bloom of Serenity. Fading in and out like flickering lights, clusters of ethereal mooncloak butterflies trail in her wake, heralding the blessings of Lisaera, the Silver Goddess.
She is wearing:
a pair of supple leather hunting gloves fastened tightly to her palms
a leaf-green woollen blanket pinned over a dark moss-green linen shirt like a shawl
a dark moss-green linen shirt tucked into her skirt, the sleeves rolled just above her forearms
a circlet of living vines gently woven into her tight hair bun
a pair of thin spectacles tinted a smoky black to reduce incoming light
a water lily stud through her right ear - like frill
a sparkling pink conch earring through her left ear - like frill
a dangling earring of willow leaves through her right ear - like frill
a gentle water lily brooch proudly securing a leaf-green woollen blanket in place
Immaculate Prayer Beads of the Empyreal Goddess wrapped reverently around her bandaged right hand
a glass ampoule of bottled starlight hanging securely from her waist
the Mantle of Starlight folded neatly and hung from her belt
a vibrant snapdragon brooch drenched in watercolor
a frost-touched white rose wedding ring
a crystal star pendant
a dangling lily pad earring through her right ear - like frill

Velcora ponders Hiresh thoughtfully, looking her up and down.

You pet Flapjack the fox ingratiatingly.
Flapjack the fox beams broadly.

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "Looks like it to me."

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "I am not normally though! I am normally around.... six-ish inches?"

Showing that you understand, you nod your head slowly towards Hiresh.
You ponder Hiresh thoughtfully, looking her up and down.
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Hiresh, "You make a fine mugwumps, and I am sure a wonderful faelings."

Velcora's mouth turns up as their face breaks into a smile.

Hiresh giggles happily.

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "Hiresh has just been apponted Librarian."
Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "She is a poet, too."

Hiresh blushes furiously.

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "Apponted? appointed."

Hiresh beams broadly.

You have emoted: Cheliyi hums approvingly, adjusting her tinted spectacles. "Is amazing, yes. We definitely need people with better thinkings around here, yes. I've always been a hands person, so my words are not my strongest parts, no."

Softly, without insisting, Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says to you, "Your words are plenty strong, love."

Hiresh beams broadly.

You wave your hand dismissively.
You smile softly at Velcora.

Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say, "Nots the points."
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Hiresh, "So, what did draw you to mine-daughters?"
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say, "Do not mean to discredit, but am curious, yes."

Lunar Librarian Hiresh smiles and says to you, "I am a rather timid person, I let things happen instead of being the change that I want to happen. Veara does not let me do that, she has been pushing me since we met to be more proactive in my own life, to not settle for a bad situation. I was in a very miserable hole, and she helped teach me how to climb my own way out, instead of just offering a hand. I admire her, I try to emulate her and her quiet strength. I also adore how she speaks of Llani, how filled with love she is when she talks of her."

A rush of summer warmth passes through you as you smell grass and flowers and glimpse the limitless blue of a perfectly blue, sunlit sky.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "I did not find them either, they found me. It was them who suggested I might be their daughter."

Velcora smiles softly.

You have emoted: Cheliyi listens intently, her frills twitching as she takes in Hiresh's words. Her expression softens, and the mugwump nods in agreement. "Am glad she has been so inspiring for you. And, am glad such a lovely young persons wants to join Veara's family, yes."

Hiresh beams broadly at you.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "Forgive me, I am usually very talkative, I am just extremely nervous."

With a reassuring smile, Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "There's nothing to be nervous about."

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says to Velcora, "That is a very easy statement to make when one is not meeting their grandmother for the first time."

Velcora blushes furiously.

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "It certainly is."

Hiresh giggles happily.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says to you, "Do you... like poetry?"

You ponder the situation.
With widening eyes, you say, "Ohmygods Velcora."
You stare blankly at Velcora.
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Velcora, "I'm a grandmas."
Your eyes raise to the heavens as a look of hope flashes across your face.

Hiresh beams broadly.

Velcora giggles happily.

Laughing joyously, you say to Hiresh, "Yes, yes, I do likes poetry."
You reach over and ruffle Hiresh's hair fondly.

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "That's what we're trying to tell you."
Velcora's mouth turns up as their face breaks into a smile.

Hiresh giggles happily.

You giggle happily.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh smiles impishly and says, "I, uh, could read some? It's sort of my only party trick."

You nod your head sagely.
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say, "I would love to hear its, yes."

A look of understanding crossing her features, Hiresh nods her head slowly.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "She sits outside, the snow piling around her feet / How painful is must feel to know you have been beat / That your heart should yearn, but they hold another in their gaze / That no matter how much you should want, their affections are ever far away / So she shall sit outside, and let the falling snow be her friend / The pain will not last forever, it will numb her till it ends / To love and lose, that is merely life / it would hurt far worse, if she had never tried / Cry because it hurts, but find strength to try again / Love is truly beautiful, and worth pursuing til the end."

Pale gold in hue, the wreath about your brow shimmers in a steady pattern, like unto a heartbeat in its gentle pulsation, crowning you in a flickering halo before settling still once more.

Argent moonlight pierces the blue glow of the Flame of dae'Seren upon Velcora, enshrouding them momentarily in a silver mantle.

You have emoted: Cheliyi blinks slowly, her lips pulling into a sad smile as Hiresh recites her poem. She nods approvingly at the end, her frilled tail sweeping behind her in a slow motion. "Is good words. Did make me remember the times before I met your other grandma, yes."
You give Velcora a peck on the cheek.
A wry smile spreads across your face.

Hiresh's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.

Velcora hums quietly as their eyes flit between you and Hiresh with absolute delight.
Velcora squeezes your hand.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says to you, "You are adorable!"

You blink.
Lifting a dainty hand to finger your neckline, you glance about with uncertain disdain.
Pretending to be offended, you say, "I am a menace."
The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

Velcora nods their head at you, showing their acceptance.

The corners of Hiresh's mouth turn up as she grins mischievously.

You ponder Hiresh thoughtfully, looking her up and down.
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Hiresh, "Would you like a hug?"

Hiresh nods her head emphatically.
Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "More than anything."

A wry smile spreads across your face.
You hug Hiresh as best as you can, pulling them into a tight embrace.

Hiresh squeezes back, eagerly accepting the affection.

With a laugh, you say, "I used to give much better hugs as a tree, so this will have to do."
Leaning forward, you gently press a kiss to Hiresh's brow.

Hiresh giggles happily.

Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Hiresh, "Am happy to have you as my granddaughters, if all goes well. And even if the papers say no, you will be so in my hearts. My manse is always open."
You pat Hiresh in a friendly manner.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says to you, "Thank you, truly. But I am certain it will work, I will be your grand- am I your first granddaughter?"

Velcora's mouth turns up as their face breaks into a smile.

Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says, "Yes."
Vibrant Virtuoso Velcora Lunarose says to you, "Unless there are some things we need to talk about?"

Flapjack the fox gives Muginn, the ghost-feathered magpie a peck on the cheek.

Hiresh's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.
Lunar Librarian Hiresh says, "I dunno, I just thought you had grandkids all this time. It just dawned upon me when Grandma mentioned that she was a grandma that I must be the first one."

You ponder the situation.
Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Velcora, "Not that I know of."
You stare blankly into space.
With obvious joy, you say to Velcora, "They just called me grandma, love. I'm- my family, I've-."
You have emoted: Cheliyi inhales sharply, her eyes watering.
You smile brightly at Velcora, your frills puffing with joy.
Warbling, you say, "Sorry, sorry, I am having a moments."

Hiresh beams at her grandmothers, her own eyes growing wet with emotion.

You close your eyes and inhale deeply, absorbing the scent of your surroundings.
You let loose a long breath from your lungs, exhaling slowly.
Leaning forward, you gently press a kiss to Hiresh's brow.
You give Velcora a peck on the cheek.

Hiresh giggles happily.

Velcora flops themself into your arms.

You hug Velcora as best as you can, pulling them into a tight embrace.

You incline your head politely to those around you.

Lunar Librarian Hiresh says to you, "Thank you for accepting me, Grandmother."

Like a gentle ripple in a crystalline pool, you say to Muginn, the ghost-feathered magpie, "Watch over Velcora, don't bite Flapjack."

Flapjack the fox's ears perk up with a sudden interest.

The corners of Hiresh's mouth turn up as she grins mischievously.

Muginn, the ghost-feathered magpie rolls his eyes.

You smile wryly at Hiresh.
You reach over and ruffle Hiresh's hair fondly.
