A girl and her Raptor! [Open]

Characters: Xue'Kol and you.
Setting: Floor Seventy Three
Format: Prose but I can do either.
Summary: Venturing into the comfort of the snowy floor, riding a raptor and eating a nice meal next to a cozy fire!
Warnings: None atm.

It had been... an eventful couple of months since she had ventured into this floor. But considering what had been occuring recently, she was pretty sure she needed some liesure time. And what's better than a loyal and close friend and good food in this lovely winter wonderland?! Swimming of course, but surprisingly enough, she wasn't in the mood for that today and she felt that she hasn't been too fair to Sweetfang as far as outtings went anyways.

After all their time here in the tower, Sweetfang had finally grown large enough to be a battle companion and a mount, much like it would be tradition back in her world. So first things first, she'd go out for a ride through the snow filled forrest and the ruins with him. Testing reflexes, speed, endurance and frankly, just to have tons of fun. Many cheers and laughs were had that afternoon between the two, anyone who passed by could see that their bond was strong and endearing.

After all the fun however, it was time for a well earned meal and some cozy time. Much like she would do back home, Xue cleared an area to camp and made a large, cozy fire for them to take comfort in. In addition, she had brought her day's hunt with them so they could have a nice, warm and satisfying meal. She divided the meat from the animal into sections that she could skewer with some vegetable she'd gathered and set them on the fire. The rest of the meat would be used on a thick stew she set on a pot with assorted seasonings and vegetables and let it cook.

Of course she also gave Sweetfang a large portion of the creature to feast on while the cooked meals were cooking for which he was more than grateful as he tore into the flesh and bone. Xue laid back against him and let out a relaxed sigh. If  it wasn't for the fact that she knew all too well where she was, this would feel incredibly like home right now... She misses it for sure.

Shion rarely came to this floor, but he was doing some exploring today. This floor interested him because it was like nothing he had seen before. Something from a story.

He avoided the castle itself, it held too many memories from Dark World. But he was determined not to let Ganondorf and Richtofen ruin this place for him.

He wandered until he saw the monster, he didn't see Xue'Kol at first, just the raptor, he held up his EMR and began backing off, hoping the creature didn't chase him.

His eyes flickered to the voice and his face relaxed into a smile. "Xue'kol... is this your friend?" He eyes the creature again.

snowdriftassassin: (Smile)

"Ey'! Nice seein' ya." she greeted as she motioned him over.

At his question, Xue'Kol laughed and nodded. "Aye, I be surprised ya don't recognize Sweetfang. 'Course he was just a hatchling when I be arrivin' here mah first time mon. But aftah all dis time, he be a grown raptor now." she said as she rubbed his side.
savedbyasong: (whaaa)

"That's Sweetfang?" The last time Shion had seen him he had been a tiny thing. "He's grown."

snowdriftassassin: (Talking/Overshoulder)

[personal profile] snowdriftassassin 2013-05-09 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Xue chuckled, "Aye, dat he be. Venomhide's tend ta grow real fast due to how harsh der habitats are. Considerin' how long we been in dis here place, he grew ratha healthy don'tcha tink?"

Sweetfang took a moment from his feast to look up at Shion. Recognizing the male, he acknowledged him before turning back to feasting.

"He did." Shion had no idea how large they usually were, he didn't think these creatures had ever existed in his world. Or if they had it had been so long ago the records had been lost.
snowdriftassassin: (Wink)

[personal profile] snowdriftassassin 2013-05-10 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
"C'mon now, he don't be bitin' joo. He woulda shown aggreshion if he didn't like ya mon. Besides, maybe ya want sum 'a da food I be cookin'. My treat?" she asked with a playful wink.

Shion smiled and edged closer, relieved when the creature made no move towards him. "Hello Sweetfang," he smiled and his smile grew at the mention of food.

"What are you making?"
savedbyasong: (tiny smiles)

[personal profile] savedbyasong 2013-05-10 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
He moved to sit near and smiled, "It really is a feast." He smiled, "I'll have whatever you have to spare."
savedbyasong: (cute smiles)

Shion took a kabob as well and bit into it. "It's delicious." He smiled, "You're a good cook."

Enoch was not normally on this floor. It was too cold for him, and he seemed to have forgotten his cloak. At first, he appears to be exploring the ruins, strange as it is without preparation like a cloak. He straightens up from a crouch on the floor as he hears someone approaching and turns...

...to see a familiar face, an acquaintance, riding something entirely unfamiliar and dangerous-looking.

"What..."
savedbyasong: (tiny smiles)

[personal profile] savedbyasong 2013-05-11 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
He nodded with a small smile, "What's a worg, Xue'Kol?"
snowdriftassassin: (Talking/Overshoulder)

[personal profile] snowdriftassassin 2013-05-12 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Huh? Oh, rite, different worlds heh. Well, a worg be like a much larger and strongah wolf if you know what dose be? From da canine family an' such. Dey be pack hunters, close clan ties and fiercely loyal."
savedbyasong: (serious)

[personal profile] savedbyasong 2013-05-12 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
A wolf, he nodded, "I know what a wolf is." Though he had never seen one in real life, only dogs.

"Were they part of your family?"

snowdriftassassin: (Tired/Thoughtful)

[personal profile] snowdriftassassin 2013-05-12 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Xue nodded, "Dat's rite mon, dey took care a' me an' I be takin' care a' dem."

Smiling fondly, Xue recalls warm memories of her group of misfits, the close knit pack that kept her company in her lonely mountain retreat. However, this was neither here no there and she turned back to Shion.

"How 'bout joo mon? Ya had anyting alike dat back home?"
savedbyasong: (cute smiles)

[personal profile] savedbyasong 2013-05-13 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
Shion smiled, it sounded nice. He thought about the question for a moment and then nodded, "Sort of... I had my mum, Safu, Rat, and Dog Keeper. He had a lot of dogs, they were his family, they raised him. I worked for him in West Town and my job was to wash all the dogs, so they were my friends too."

"It is." His words came with another stab of pain, because he had lost so many of those people, back in his world and here.
warriorscribe: (Calm)

"Ah...pleasant enough given the cold. I felt I shouldn't let it deter me from exploring this place."

That and in the twistier parts of the ruins it was fairly easy to lose his stalker retrieval unit for a bit.
