Ammy liked to get out early in the mornings and stretch her legs before classes kept her tied to one place all day, and today her walks took her on a long, loping path past the lake, where she was quick to spot a human she hadn't seen before. She paused, watching the girl's movements--she didn't recognize them but they seemed graceful--before padding over to watch more closely. Hopefully this girl wouldn't react as badly as the boy from before had.

Olivia had her eyes closed as she silently went through the graceful movements, but she still had her senses expanded so that she could remain in contact with her surroundings. It was the only reason she noticed a sudden change, a presence before Ammy had even come within a few dozen feet of her.

She opened her eyes, letting out a breath before falling to her knees to pet Ammy. She was still silent however, falling back on old habits.

Ammy's tail wagged as she leaned up to be petted; yes, this was going much better than before. The girl seemed nice enough, and quiet, which was unusual enough in this school for Ammy to be pleasantly surprised.

Olivia closed her eyes even as she ran her fingers through Ammy's fur, extending her senses to confirm a suspicion. Ah. That was it - appearances were deceiving. Nature did not lie - while this creature was extremely close to a canine, there was a spirit about it that was inherently human.

She opened her eyes again and smiled down at the dog. Deception, but not bad.

Early morning walks had become routine for Wendy, and this was no different from normal. A red feather from a Neverland bird had been waiting on her bed this morning, and she spun it idly between her fingers while she walked the grounds.

There was one patch of grass that was a slightly different green from the rest of the lawn. It was here that Wendy found herself every morning to practice her control over her powers. She dried the spot of any extra water before laying down, and placed the feather on the grass before her. She watched the sun rise in silence, sighing happily at the peaceful sight of the feather illuminated by the sun's glow.

Movement nearby caught her eye. Another girl, around her age, one she would have recognized anywhere. "Tiger Lily!" It was out before she had the chance to think of the girl's real name. Wendy shot up to a sitting position. "Olivia!"

Olivia wasn't wearing her hearing aid - she never did whenever she did these morning routines. But her powers quietly alerted her to a life force familiar and friendly nearby, something unlike the steady heartbeat of nature around her.

She smiled, eyes still closed, quietly mouthing, Wendy.

Wendy was far beyond glad to see someone else from Neverland (not everything is Neverland, Wendy). While she was a trifle upset that it wasn't John or Michael--they would never send her brothers over, not at this rate, not with giant monsters disturbing field trips!--it was still nice to see another female from the illusions who wasn't TinkTina.

Olivia didn't seem to hear her right off, but that hardly phased Wendy. She simply needed to get where the other girl could see her. They could both communicate that way. She was careful to give Olivia plenty of room to see her before stepping closer. With a bright smile, she gave Olivia a small wave.

Olivia smiled at Wendy, reigning in her senses. She quietly spoke while simultaneously signing what she was saying, "How are you?"
