It was time for the morning walk again.
The weather had been rainy all week, but it had eased up after the night, and Ilja decided to take the chance and go for a stroll with his blue little protégè. Prepared for the occassional breeze and rainshower, he had dressed Annea in a soft smoky blue hoodie and dark corduroy pants, and himself in the tightest jeans and t-shirt possible, covered by a giant grey parka. He wasn't used to waking up this early on a regular basis, but he had started to realize it wasn't so bad - the park was deserted, and he was even less a people person than he was a morning person.
Sand rattled under the wheels of the old-fashioned wicker carriage. Annea sat comfortably, supported by a small mountain of pillows, and gazed around. Whatever they did, the girl seemed to be infinitely interested in everything, but never commented on it. She was silent today as well.
"Youre not very talkative, are you?" Ilja smiled as he pulled the breaks on the carriage and sat on a white bench, lighting a cigarette. "Blah!" Annea chuckled and clapped her hands together once, looking very pleased.
"True, I know. No sense in talking of you've got nothing to say. Even less so when you can't properly talk, eh?"
[ ooc: Feel free to magically appear from nowhere into the park and start playing! I don't wanna make a monologue ;D ]

Knowing that on damp mornings the trees and bushes in the park always seemed to glow, Raspberry, an unusually pink nymph, decided to go to this miraculous place. She didn't even think about dressing up in warmer clothes then the outfit she wore every day. Especially since it was an early morning, she expected to find the park as empty as usually. "Normal people usually sleep at that time," she thought and walked around in the park freely. Her short skirt fluttered through the wind as a stronger breeze blew past her. After running after some early morning butterflies, she suddenly noticed, that she wasn't alone in the park after all. Raspberry noticed them just then, when the person, who was sitting on a quite broad white bench, said, "Even less so when you can't properly talk, eh?" Raspberry instantly hid herself behind the nearest tree. Although the nature of the girl nymph was quite adventerous, she didn't have the courage to walk up to a stranger, especially when she was in an almost empty park on an early and moist morning. She turned to see, if the person had noticed her, but at that time, she crushed an old twig underneath her right leg. "Oh no! I bet they heard me!" She thought and looked at the bench more accurately this time, still tying to hide herself. She could barely see the person on the bench due to the leftovers of the morning mist.

Leaning agasint her aparment's wall - or rather, Jeshi's aparment - Pri continued to rehearse the spell. Flash fingers, coil, concerate... The babble of water collected itself from the air perfectly, and began to float before Pri's outstreched fingers. It enchanted Pri, which was probably why all her spells ended up failing... She got too carried away looking at the shimmering water, which held all the shades of blue she could image. The water splattered to the carpeted ground. Pri let out a yelp, quickly running her fingers over the wet spot, desperately trying to get rid of it before Jeshi saw. The smart thing to do would be to get a towel, she thought, and stood up to do so.
It attracted Jeshi's gaze, however, and seeing the soaked circle wasn't a good way for her to wake up.
"Argh---Pri!" She started, storming over to the nymph. Pri was grateful she had already jumped to her feet, and rushed to the door.
"I-i'm going for a walk!" She called, barely cracking the door as she slipped out, and slamming it behind her, the child prepared to race down the hall.
"Fine!" Jeshi's muffle yell could be heard through the brown oak door - rather quality for an apartment building - "Good!" She continued to boom, "Go outside if you want to practice magic!"
Pri did so, scuttling out of the building. The only place she knew the way to was the park, so she began to run there, eager to escape the honking streets. Even for the morning, the city was pretty alive, though not too badly.
Reaching the park - which looked simply delightful with faint dewdrops pulling down delicate tree leaves that surrounded the play area - Pri was instantly humored by the scene. A little baby and it's guardian were sitting on a bench, with a bundle of a pink girl peeping shyly from behind a tree. Creeping around so she wouldn't be spotted, Pri snuck up to the girl from behind.
It had to be the girl, Pri thought. The one that Jeshi had told her about... The oldest nymph (currently, anyway). She shivered violently, the cold starting to claim her, and the fact that she was about to try and startle a stranger. What was with Pri this morning? Maybe she shouldn't. But maybe...
"Boo," Pri whispered into the taller girl's ear, having to stand on her very tippiest tippy toes. Then, falling back onto her heels and taking a polite step backwards, Pri continued to mutter, "Um, are you Raspy? I'm Pri..." She was, indeed, a very curious nymph. "Why are you spying on them? Oh--am I giving you away? I'm sorry..." She had started to stare at the ground, and couldn't see how Raspy - if it was Raspy - had reacted to anything she had said.
((sorry, I don't have time to proof-read. ^^;;; Hope it's okay!))

Raspberry was so concentrated in hiding herself, that she couldn't hear the younger nymph sneak up to her. But after she heard a silent whisper right next to her ear, Raspberry clinged to the tree. She was so startled, that she was afraid to look back. "Um, are you Raspy?" The same voice said and then raspberry took all her courage together and looked back. "Ah. you're Pri?" she then said and let go of the tree. "Tea told me a little about you. But it's nice to finally meet you." She then added and grabbed her skirt instead. She didn't want to look weird on their first encounter, so she tried to keep her skirt in one piece. "I wasn't spying on them, I was just hiding. I don't now who they are, so I got scared a bit." she then explained and blushed lightly.
((<<; when ever my rp gets lamer, let me know and I'll rewrite or stuff...))

It just so happened that Annea's nose was very itchy, and she sneezed on exactly the same moment that the twig cracked, covering the sound. Ilja smiled at her and turned to look at a crow picking around the grass, oblivious of the little spying girl. She didn't go unnoticed, however: the forever curious Annea peered all around the park (she had been there before, but everything's new every day to babies), and finally noticed Raspberry peeking from behind the tree. There was something familiar about her - Annea felt more close to this half-hidden stranger than to her human caretaker. She watched the girl close, a smile flickering on her lips when Pri approached. She let out a chuckle, a delighted "Tah!" and flung her arms up in the air when she saw the surprised look on Raspberry's face. Her shout alerted Ilja, who turned around to look at the baby girl. "What is it, plum?" he asked her. Annea answered with a gurle and waved to the two girls behind the tree, a broad smile on her face. The man turned to look where she was looking, noticed the girls, and waved too.
"New friends, you think?"
"Huuu."

Pri nodded in agreement, "Sure, that's understandable." The words flowed easily from her mouth; maybe it was the person or maybe it was that she was a fellow nymph - the first real one for Pri to see -, but Pri didn't mind talking to Raspberry. Raspberry looked pretty nervous, though, so she decided to smile and make sure the pink nymph knew everything was alright. She had the warm smile down when she peered over Raspberry's shoulder - just for a second - towards the bench.
The smile vanished.
"Umm, Raspberry," Suddenly Pri felt that the other girl was her ally, above anything else, "We've been spotted." As she whispered in a weak little voice, Pri made an awkward, open-mouth smile and did a jerky wave back.
lame lame lame lame lame. =3=

Seeing, that Pri smiled, made her cheer up a bit, but as her smile dissappeared and she heard that they had been sighted, she looked back and saw the man on the bench wave at them. Since Raspberry was tought to be polite, she let one hand loose from her skirt and waved back also. She felt a bit uneasy and rude for hiding like that, so she said, "I guess we should go to them and introduce ourselves. It's not polite to hide like this." She then looked down to her other hand that was still holding the skirt together and started to regret what she had just suggested. "No, I've gotta be a bit more brave." She said to herselt and let go of her skirt compleatly. After that she took a few steps torwards the bench and then stopped. "Will you come with me, Pri?" she asked as she looked back with a worried look on her face. The faint strands of fog dissappeared with a stronger gust of wind and the park was now cleared from the early morning signs.

Pri nodded, and timidly holding her left hand to her heart, hurried to catch up with Raspberry and go to the new people. She recognized the adorable baby as a nymph - how cute!
"H-hi," Pri sputtered, instinctively dipping down into a bow, "Nice to meet you. I'm Pri."
((lamer than lame. I'll add details later, but that's what she's gonna do for you all. sorry for making you wait!))

Raspberry copied Pris actions and also bowed. When she stood up straight again, she said, "I am Raspberry. Pleased to meet you." She then sighted the baby in the baby carriage. "Annea? is that you?" She then added and walked to the carriage. She let Annea take her finger in her little hand and played with her a bit. Raspberry smiled warmly as she calmed down from playing with another nymph.
