Now we all understand that children, especially Forest Fawns, always seem to ask *headtilt* "Why?"
Here are a few Questions that Jupiter has about her new home. I would appreciate if your older, wiser deer answered them for her.
Jupiter asks:
- Why do deer wear masks? Don't they like their faces?
- Why do they fight? Don't they love each other?
- Why can I not keep magic? Don't the Gods like me?
- Can you Hear me? Why don't others answer back when I call for them? Why don't the Gods answer back when I ask them questions?
As you can see, she is just full of difficult questions today...... >.<
Bumping for you and tracking
- The stag flushed a little
- "Of course many deer here love each other, it's just- not everyone always gets along as they should. Every deer is different and special, and so they each like and dislike different things. That's a good thing, but sometimes it causes fighting."
- Zevi smiled at the third question. "Well when I was a fawn, I always wanted a certain mask and a certain pelt. But if I had been able to keep magic, then I wouldn't have been able to find the magic I currently wear, which suits me so well. Fawns often change their minds a lot, but as a fawn they can explore different things without having to stick with it. Like- dressup. It's fun, and you don't have to decide anything at the moment. I'm sure the twin gods know that, so they made it so you can just enjoy your fawnhood while it lasts, without caring what you look like."
- "Don't worry, I'm sure that soon you will make lots of steadfast friends, that will answer you when you need them. Just take time to listen rather than call- and I am sure you shall find many deer to meet. And the gods... are often busy."
Wall of text >.> I never realized how much of a rambler Zevi was, kind of like me.
The fawn listened intently,
"Thank you, Zevi."
(A second set of questions will appear here soon )

I'm gonna have my stag Queze
"Some hide behind them, some are protected by them, some masks are magic. It depends on the face behind them really, it's personal. Still, I think most deer here just like the look of them."
"Why would you think everyone loves everyone else?"
"I don't know, that's just the way it is. It's best not to question why."
"Perhaps you are not speaking the right way? Gods have their own language you know. Have you offered them anything, a sacrifice, something that tells them you are humble, serious?"
tracking, will answer later
Phaios cocks her head to one
She remains attentive for the second inquiry. "Many deer do love one another, but sometimes they just don't get along. Other deer are simply unkind."
Oh.. lots of questions! The doe can't help but smile. "I'm sure the gods like you just fine. You are young, is all, and like all things, magic takes practicing. When you are older, you will be able to work the magic as long as you like - just keep trying."
Her ears prick forward. "I can hear you just fine. Maybe the others just don't know that you're calling to them. It's hard to tell, sometimes, from far away - especially if someone doesn't know your voice yet." She takes a little longer to contemplate the second part of this question. "Gods are strange creatures. They are often not among us in a way we can see, and it is not their job to answer all our questions. Sometimes it's best that we find our own answers; it makes us stronger."
[Cute fawn o3o Hope to see you two around sometime]
@tera "I thought all masks
"I thought all masks were magic, Queze?" Her head tilted as she spoke, obviously confused. And... "Should everybody not love everyone else? We are all children of the Gods after all." The fawn shuffled her hooves, stirring up a little cloud of dirt. A sprout sprung up, obviously having been covered in the dust from who knows what. It didn't seem to phase her much, and so she continued to give her own contributions to Queze's answers.
Then... it shook her. "Oh! Momma never said that the Gods had a language of their own! Teach me, Queze? I mean... I had used my Serious Voice and prayed to them to ask... but I think all they heard was...umm... well my voice is too small anyway. I have to learn the language of the Gods to make it bigger, I think." That look on her face was priceless, determination that only a child could seem to have.
@Phaios
"Why doesn't MY soul need to be protected? I mean, if I can't keep magic to wear the masks... My soul is all out there for whatever it....oh....ohmy." The fawn seemed a little shocked. But wait, what was a soul exactly? It definitely had to do with your face. Thinking of what her face appeared as, Jupiter judged that it must be... well, she has a nose, eyes, cheeks, lips, and a mouth. But nobody told her what those dots on her face were. Those must be her soul. They got more numerous every day as she grew, so maybe it was growing with her? She had bits of her soul on her face!
"Oh... I just saw all the big deer with all of that magic and thought maybe it just stuck to you like that yellow stuff that gets everywhere when you lay in a flower patch." Her tongue licked her lips in thought and she knitted her brows. She needed to practice a LOT before the bits of her soul were taken away.
"That's why... Queze told me that is because I have to learn their language. I can't see them and I dunno what they say, so I have to learn how to talk to them so they can tell me- wait... they don't answer all of our questions? Oh, so we have to learn too, like I am doing right now. I think they will answer me if I learn more like this." A wide smile of accomplishment spread across her face. "Thank you, Phaios. You taught me a lot of things. I think the Gods like you because you're a good teacher."

fff aw she's such a sweetie!
^^ Im going to have Xiar
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Xiar paused in his casual walk, hearing the conversation to his left. Lifting an ear he listened as the inquesitive fawn, Jupiter, and the wise stag spoke to one another. Desiding to take a chance he to stepped forward slowly, baring his own mask. Once close enough to hear he spoke in a voice still seeming young "Masks -for me- are ment for fun." he stated,tilting his head so his own slipped forward onto the countaince of Jupiter. "See?" he chuckled softly, his mask being far to large looked rather silly on the fawn. With a gentle smile he returned the mask to his person, and spoke again "I've known some deer, who have been unhappy with themselves...but they do alright with a kind word or two." He finished, noting the few others that still gathered nearer.
The next question sat apon the stags mind in a different way "Some deer fight becuase its there wish..." he sighed before adding "but others do it to protect the ones they care for." He lowered himself to the grass, now looking eye to eye with the young fawn "Fawns get the joy of being loved by all, this includes the Gods. All fawns are gifts to us who miss the freedom it came with." He smiled, tapping his brow against hers. "And, I hear you very well. If the Twin Gods had anwsered you, then I wouldn't have gotten to meet you. Would I?" He anwsered her finale question, light shinning behind his mask. Xiar missed speaking with the fawns, and now treasured this moment he had despite the fact he felt he wasn't wise enough nor near old enough to be advising Jupiter.

^^ That wasnt too long lol but it was fun!
Jupiter smiled, nuzzling Xiar
The fawn pondered these things along with all of the others. The world was confusing.

((d'aaaw)) Xiar
Xiar pondered her newest question for a moment "I talk to them, they don't anwser me, but I feel them listening." He said slowly, before her question of being romoved cuased a small frown against his mask "I don't think they would do that Jupiter." He said to her softly "Why would they do that, if you were ment to be here?" He asked, mainly to himself. Xair didn't expect an anwser, but the fact it had bothered the young fawn so troubled him. So much so that he nuzzled the fawns frame "Don't think about that, you were ment to be here, so here you will stay." He said with a conferming snort and a smile.
Jupitur reminded Xiar of his own fawn-hood, so many worries and questions from such a small source. The thought made him smile, and he made a mentle note to remember the fawns pictogram so he would be able to find her again. That is, if, she wanted him to leave.

o3o this is cute! Xiar is normaly so anti-social! XD

Phai quirks a brow. "Don't
"I don't know who Queze is, but the gods I've met have spoken to me with the same words you and I speak now." She smiles softly. "And yes, learning everything you can is a good place to start."
A good teacher, huh? The compliment gives her a warm feeling.

He smiled. "You're

Bits of soul on her face... She is so adorable ♥ I'm going to continue reading all of these, I imagine we most be confusing her with all of our wildly different answers though.

"This fawn..." he thought, "Shes so small, but her soul and spirit could fill the whole forest." he smiled to himself, glancing back at the fawns features to her large and warm eyes.
(( o3o FaunGrae, what does your pictogram look like??? ))
"Magic... It smells. I mean,
