10.26.15 Good-night my baby. Bio's going to stay up. Thanks for all the art of my boy. I'll be putting them back up in a bit.







Reate; male; bicorn/kirin mix. Player's interpretation of a "unicorn".

In Game Set: Secretary → Owl → Golden Butterfly → Noh | GB Mask | Flowers; Candles

7.19.13-10.26.15 15 years old.

Most bonds have been forgotten over his absence.

Instinct mixed with human curiosity and thought processes.

Mentally broken. Retreated to the forest from a ruined homeland. Returned to his rock tending, though on a grander scale. Talks to them and believes on some level that they are his deceased herdmates and family.
Body | Summer | Winter | Rut

Thanks for all the interest in him, you guys!


@Cali

Yeah we noticed that- was checking on the screen now and again while working away from the comp- the company was much appreciated.


One last hurrah before he becomes a menopausal woman. :I

The map is showing his picto and we were playing guess & check with it trying to find him. When she finally found the other picto with him and it was 2 fawns well.... figured checking was worth it. Lilith + invisible Reate = mindblown

Lilith convinced me to let her log off with the butterfly antenna thingies and a fawn got her with the peacock feathers so she decided to be 'half peacock' for a little while.

"It feels odd to not have to crane my neck to speak with you..." he reached out to poke her shoulder with his nose, "I am here."

She fluffed up at that comment and looked up at him. A small smile flickered on her little face. "Achilles has two children now. I'm worried about their family sticking together." Lilith dropped her head on his shoulder. "I'm glad you're back, I missed you."

(This is good timing then! I get that all the time with Lilith, silly quiet girl ^^)

"I missed you too, very much..." he curled his tail more about them, allowing an appropriate stretch of silence to fall between them, "Is this worry what is causing you to be small?"


(Yes, very good timing!)

She hummed very softly to the silence. The doe tilted her head slightly thinking over his question. "Yes and no. Worry makes this forest small so I shrank to give myself more room. I can grow and shrink whenever I wish though." She wrinkled her nose a bit. ""Don't often shrink though. Not overly fond of being squish sized."

"I find it to be a nice change, now I can nuzzle you and you can't get away as easily," he laughed gently at that, pretty much messing up her fur for the sheer joy of doing so.

Whether that was an invitation or not, Reate scooted closer and set to grooming her, "Why does the forest make you feel small, Lilith?"

"T's not so much me feeling

"T's not so much me feeling small but the forest." She snorted. "I'm big as a whale. I've lived a long time and I'll live much longer. When you are eternal it doesn't hold to stay in one place too long. I've already out stayed my welcome here but now I can not leave this place. I do not care to be around when the dimension, place or world withers away. I daresay I'll see this forest go, and all its soap bubble inhabits."
Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

"I don't understand. If you can't leave, but you can't go, what are you going to do then...?" he stopped grooming to look at her.

She met his gaze cool as a cucumber. "Could be a thousand years, could be tomorrow. Probably won't be tomorrow though, I keep coming back to this one. I'm a wanderer. Much as I'd like to stay some place and settle I can't. Raises too much suspicion in the Human world when one does not age. I'll be here awhile yet though. Maybe a few forays to the humans or my own plane but a few days will find me back here." She lowered her gaze. "There's too much worth staying for me to just up and leave. The boys, their new families. And you. I just get restless sometimes."

"I see..." he went silent, staring at the circle of stones in his vision, only to nod, "I understand that...I like to wander sometimes too."

(I know how that feels)

"The sea...?" he trailed off

"The sea...?" he trailed off in thought, "I've probably come across a sea once or twice...but I never stuck around. I've never got to really enjoy it though. So much energy...it's a wonderful feeling while it lasts."

"It truly is a wonderful

"It truly is a wonderful place, always shifting, always changing. Day in and day out." She closed her eyes for a short time picturing the roaring waves and the smell of salt. "It's been forever and a day since I last visited. Perhaps we could go together one day?"

"That would be wonderful..."

"That would be wonderful..." She said wistfully. Once the littles were grown enough to last on their own the ocean would be her first destination. "Speaking of traveling... where did you disappear off to for 19, or was it 20 days?"

Lilith understood that, she'd been through enough chapters. "Chapters need to be closed before another can begin. You have a new start now I'm guessing, a new chapter?" She fell silent for a minute. "[=white]If you don't mind me asking... how big is your magic?[/color"
