[Open] This mellifluous tongue

Sep 07, 2011 23:38

It's a fresh autumn afternoon and Merlin is taking a break from his winter preparations. He's found a hollow piece of wood, and he's played with it, crafted it into a rudimentary flute. He's sitting on a tree stub out in a clearing and playing it slowly, experimenting. It's sometimes good, sometimes terrible, sometimes soulful, sometimes playful.

A bird!Merlin would be good to start with, please! ggrindelwald September 8 2011, 10:24:20 UTC
Gellert is wandering, admiring the autumn foliage. He had always enjoyed the colours of this season.

The sunlight is fading as the afternoon draws to a close but he isn't in a hurry to get inside because of any approaching darkness.

Ah, Merlin has a few words to have with you, Mr. Grindelwald. Excellent.

Through the foliage, there is a merlin - a bird, not a man, peering at the wandering youth with curiosity.

He spots the bird after a moment and grins a little.

"Hello there." He likes birds - they don't growl at him like many animals do. He holds out a crooked arm as if inviting the bird to land on it.

The bird cocks his head at Gellert, coos, and seems to be examining him curiously.

He cocks his head too, also observing the bird and almost mimicing Merlin's movements.

The bird eventually accepts the invitation, and lands on Gellert's shoulder.

"Gellleeeeeert," the Merlin!bird crows. "Gelleeeeeeert."

Gellert laughs. "You know my name!"

He cocks his head again, makes a cooing sound. "And other things too!" the bird announces.

"You are a very clever bird then...," he grins.

The bird crows, as if appreciating the compliment.

Gellert laughs and reaches out to try to stroke the bird's head.

The bird shies away from it at first, then allows it.

"So doesn't somebody own you or are you wild?"

The bird crows at the world wild, and flaps its wings.

"Wild then," Gellert eyes the bird thoughtfully, musing aloud. "Birds would sometimes land on me when I was in the forests near my home. The animals would growl at me or run away but the birds were never afraid."

"Never afraid!" the bird quips again. "Never afraid?"
