Thread: Practice... (2/1/10)

Sasha, in lupus form, is a tiny jet black wolf with greyish paws. She sits, quietly, trying to be unobtrusive as she watches Shawn. Her head tilts, waiting to see if he gets a reply.

"C'mon."

He holds his hand up to his ear.

"I'm sure you can hear me. How's this thing work?"

"I'm sure you can hear me, just tell me what I have to do to make it right. I won't tell anyone you 'bent the rules'."

Sasha quietly pads over to Shawn and sniffs the rock. She looks at him with absolutely no judgement in her eyes

"It's sleeping."

Shawn jumps.

"Wha?! Where'd you come from? Who are you?"

Sasha yips and jumps back, ready to pounce. She calms quickly as she realizes she is the one who startled Shawn.

"I am Sasha World Seer. Cliath Shadow Lord Theurge, homid born. And I came from over there by the trees. I saw you trying to talk to the rock, I was just explaining why it wasn't answering."

"Okay, a few things: You shouldn't sneak up on people scaring the piss out of them; I understood about half of your name; and thanks for the info."

He carefully puts the rock back down so as not to wake it.

Turning back to Sasha, "Hi, my names Shawn, um...Theurge...um....Yeah, that's about it. If it isn't too much trouble, could you tell me about shadow lords or if there's anything awake around here that I could try to talk to? I mean, besides you. Not that I don't want to talk to you 'cuz I'm sure you're great and everything, but I know how to talk to people, and apparently now I can talk to furries, too, but I am supposed to be able to talk to things, as I understand it."

Shawn pauses and then adds, "Oh, sorry I got to rambling there, I think I'll shut up now and let you answer the questions, 'cuz it isn't like you can answer the questions if I just keep talking and talking and never shut up....."

Sasha shifts to homid, she appears to be about 10 years old with solid black hair and blue eyes. She is a tiny girl but by no means frail. She grins as he rambles, her eyes intent on his lips as he speaks. Once he trails off she closes her eyes and begins talking

"Shawn, theurge, homid, cub. What do you want to know about Shadow Lords? There are lots of awakened things around here to talk to. I'm ok I guess. Obviously, yes you can, and I can help you learn to. Only if you want to. I already have, and that is very true.

"Ok, I think homid means human, so I'm Shawn homid theurge cub. Hmm. Or maybe Shawn theurge homid cub. Since you know all this other stuff, do you know what tribe I'm supposed to be in?"

Shawn shrugs, "I don't have anything specific I want to know about Shadow Lords, just whatever you wanna tell me, I guess. Since I'm new to all this, I figure I should learn as much as I can."
