Type: Flash Rune"Speckles and Gold""The weekend was coming up and I thought that I would take Muse and Summanus out on an expedition. Delyth wanted some quiet time and surprisingly enough, Phaedrus elected to stay home as well. This time, we didn't wander too far from home for multiple reasons, the main one being that I was wishing shortly that I had brought along leashes for the two Runes. Getting Muse and Summanus together is like mixing soda and mentos: explosive and amusing as long as it doesn't directly involve you. I was planning to look around a nearby glade in the forest that surrounded my house, one where I was certain I had seen signs of a wild Rune. Well...all I really had to go off of was a single feather, certainly not of avian relation, beautiful and golden in color. It shone in the light like organic metal and I had tucked it away into the band of my hat as decoration. We were delayed in getting to the glade because Summanus decided that it would be sweet of him to get us some wild honey. Muse thought she could convince the bees to let us have some, but all we really did was run (and fly) away screaming as they chased us.
We did make it to the glade and we all paused to look around. I had one Rune on each shoulder and for a while, it was blissful. The ground was covered in a thick bed of moss, so soft that I kicked off my shoes and walked out onto it. The boulders were granite and sparkled in the dappled sunlight that pierced through the canopy of leaves. Small wildflowers grew where they could, in colors of ice-blue and butter-yellow. The breeze wasn't too cold or too warm. It was when I sat down that Summanus decided it was too quiet for him. Even Muse looked mildly disturbed at the raucous singing that seemed to send the leaves into shivers of disdain. A sharp whistle interrupted his song and something blurred into him with an audible WHUMP. Summanus was sent sprawling on the moss while the strange Rune I had suspected lived here now sat in his place, her fluffy ears laid back and body-length ruff standing on end.
Your singing is atrocious. Please cease and desist. Her voice echoed in my mind, steely soft in tone. Summanus was definitely offended, but seemed to know better than to challenge her, since she was larger than him. And you, human. That's my feather. I would like it back. Blinking, I reached up into the band of my hat and held out the feather to her. Taking it in her mouth, she lifted off with a quiet flutter of her wings and vanished into the canopy once more. Summanus hopped over to my lap and snuggled into it, feeling pitiful to himself while Muse chattered softly to him. I could tell she was consoling him. All of us flinched as the strange Rune landed on the boulder once more, looking much more happy. She was positively cute with those ears perked forwards. Would you mind if I stayed with you for a while? I've been watching you and you seem nice. Despite the grumbling protest from Summanus, I nodded. How could I resist those spots?
Genevieve has been with us for a week or two now and is still settling in. She likes her little bauble that she found out in the woods one day and I made her a collar that she could wear in order to show it off. As much as she didn't hit it off with Summanus at the start, I think they're getting to be better friends as each day goes back. You know...hold on a second...I think I heard something smash in the kitchen. ...never mind."
