third glamour

[thatsnotnancy]

[Some distance from the castle, though still on the grounds, Nancy has found a nice little tree to sit beneath. She's sitting on a cozy looking blanket with legs crossed, and appears to be whittling a piece of wood with an ornate knife

[Peter Piper. Hooray. She needed some more of him in her life. She keeps her eyes on her handiwork.]

Gotta pass the time somehow. I figured, why not pick up a new hobby?

[thatsnotnancy]

That's not the point of whittling. The point is to make shit out of the wood.

[mmm_paradise]

[ooh, that looks rather creative! he'll saunter over and peer at what she's making for a second, and wiggle his fingers in greeting if she happens to look up.]

[also, he's wearing this. and rocking it. :>]

[thatsnotnancy]

[You're such a girl, Joshua. She notices his presence but doesn't look up immediately. She's determined to finish an intricate carving that she's been focused on and like hell is she going to let some pansy dressed in chick's clothes mess this up.

She exhales when it's finished and then finally looks up at him. Oh, she was right. ...Right? She can't tell right away what gender has just approached her, he's rockin' it so well. She raises her brows and wiggles fingers back at him.]

[mmm_paradise]

[he nods towards that little carving.] All done?

[thatsnotnancy]

[She turns the piece of wood in her hands, looking at it carefully.]

Not by a long shot. I'm patient.

[A human having a picnic in the snow is not really ordinary, but is ultimately not important enough for more than a fleeting glance. So you get a little 'whut' look as this elf lady passes by, but not much else, Nancy.]

[thatsnotnancy]

[Aaaand Nancy gives this thing a look that just begs to know what in the hell she's looking at. Those ears. They're so big and pointy.]

[arrowonthewind]

[Yes ... the staring does go noticed. And Alleria rolls her eyes upwards, then spins to face this human, arms folded over her chest.]

You need something?

[thatsnotnancy]

[Oh girl. Girl. You need to get yourself to a salon to tame those wild eyebrows before they run away on you.]

Nope. But you look like you could use a pair of earmuffs.

[Zelman'll approach in that bizarrely quiet way of his, totally under-dressed for the weather and not seeming to mind. he'll stop a polite distance away and lean interestedly forward.]

Waiting for a wolf, are you?

[thatsnotnancy]

[Boy, warn a lady before you creep up on her like that. On the outside she appears unfazed, but on the inside her heart might have skipped a beat, startled slightly as she is.]

What makes you say that?

[exanimatus]

[the little skip in her heartbeat just makes him smile more.]

A pretty girl under a tree, a basket set for two? And a knife--the scene is practically set.

[he'll lean back again.] But I suppose you could just as easily be waiting for someone perfectly nice to drop by.

[thatsnotnancy]

[When he lays it out like that...]

I'm certainly not on my way to Grandmother's house.

[She'll set aside her woodcraft in favor of folding her hands neatly atop her lap, leaning a forward where he has leaned away.]

There's still some left if you can eat. I'm not exactly sure what the vampire diet consists of outside of blood.

[after some distant shouting, Zuko comes jogging into view, glaring over his shoulder and waving his arms at the birds that seem to be following him. When they don't leave him alone, he throws out a hand and sends an angry arc of flame in their direction]

Leave me alone!

[he's...kind of heading right towards her]

[thatsnotnancy]

[The fire? That's impressive.

The fact that he's dragging birds with him? NOT SO MUCH. Only she's allowed to torment others with birds, not the other way around!

She quickly stands up when she sees him heading toward her and moves her hands out in front of her. All at once, any remaining birds following him are thrust backward by an invisible gust of wind that pointedly avoids him.]

[honorinflames]

What the--

[whirling around, he spots her. Give him a couple seconds to blink, confused, looking between her and where the birds used to be]

...Did you do that?

[thatsnotnancy]

[Exhaling loudly, she drops her hands at her sides.]

Yeah. Like hell was I going to let you drag all those birds this way. I've had enough surprise kisses to last me for a while.
