    It's midday. Funderland is still bustling with visitors. Private conversations would be next to impossible in the middle of families and couples herding from one attraction to the next. Which is why a young-ish brunette waits outside the main gate of the park, right beneath a park billboard with an unusual graffiti mark. She looks pensive, shifting from one foot to the other. Constantly looking around for whoever may show up. She's also leaving trails of colorful wildflowers in her wake. They sprout up within half a second from each step she takes, only to fade away into a shimmer of light another second or so later. Her brown hair isn't just brown, either, to those with an eye for her true nature; the green of flower-stems reflects like highlights in her hair.

    Blink






    The fairest's tattoos swirled with glowing light, as she walked up to the park. She wore a black tank top, some black yoga pants, athletic sneakers, and had a pack slung over her shoulder with a change of clothes and her meager possessions. For all intents and purposes, she looked as if she was coming from a gym. To the eyes of those that had been touched by a cruel and twisted destiny, she was radiant. That girl never hid behind a mask. If someone wanted a fight, she was more than happy to oblige.

    Blink noticed the stranger and without pause or hesitation, she made a beeline. She herself, was fairly new to the Freehold, and most of the Freehold were new faces. Blink was oblivious to the body language that showed the nervousness that the stranger exhibited. It just wasn't her forte...

    "Sup!" Blink called out as she drew near.

    Peter hadn't been many places in Sacramento yet, but one of them had been Funderland. There was a connection to the Lost there and it was certainly a place to start when it came to connecting more. The evening had allowed him to meet many new people, or at least to him, and the wave of memory flooded through him. What had been true among their words and what had been lies? Had he even been truthful. He thought he was, but maybe even he wasn't even sure what was true and what were lies anymore.

    He was wearing a simple short sleeve polo and khaki shorts with running shoes on, though he rarely ran. If he was being honest with himself, which he rarely was, he just felt they were comfortable. As he approached the very busy park he hardened his mask, keeping his true nature deeper within. His painted face was far too much for the mundies enjoying a day with their families. It was at that moment that Peter saw Blink, one of the people he'd met at the Mixer, and a woman he didn't know, but who he could immediately see was one of them.

    As he got close he raised a hand in a quick wave and said, "hey. How's it going. Hot day isn't it?" Small talk. He was good at that. It never had to be perfect or true, just simple.

    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    Cherry blossoms gilded in gold bloom from her hair, tumbling down as a warm rejuvenating spring breeze gently kisses the air with the scent of freshly cut grass. The sound of birds singing can be heard as the wildflowers grow and bloom in vibrant colors where she walks, swaying and lively in the breeze.

    A fairly tall woman, roughly 5'11 with long, wavy dark brown hair. Her eyes are an intense, deep bright blue, reminding one of sapphires. Her lips are full and her skin is flawless. With that perfection comes a body that men fawn and drool over, and women envy.

    Treasured Nix

    She didn’t feel like dressing up. Boyfriend style jeans, white tank top and a pair of sneakers was her attire for the day. Over which was her hedgespun waterfall style jacket, the lacey material looking very delicate. The necklace around her neck appeared to be fire topaz, its multifaceted colors picking up the suns rays. Her long silver and gold spun mane hung lose around her shoulders.

    Golden scales shimmering as she walked. Sapphires easily spot Emily, and the graffiti on the sign. She also see’s two other Lost with the girl, both fairly new, but friendly enough. A hand was raised,

    “Emily, hey.”
    Says the Nix when she was close enough. Looking to the others, “Hey guys, out enjoying the day?”

    Equipment: HS Jacket, HS Necklace(both linked in drop down) cell on silent

    Sasha

    The Dancer had been out and about, and knew there was work to be done. She had her dance bag with her, and a few things that could be easily carried into it. She'd picked up a telescoping staff a while ago at an open trade market in Sacramento. It seemed like anyone would sell whatever there, but a particular piece looked to be useful to her so she brought it with her. It probably wouldn't have been of interest to her at all, had it not been for Rick teaching her staff sparing.

    The flowers caught the Fairest's attention. They reminded her a lot of a former Spring Sovereign that flowed with flowers. The Fairest wore a simple outfit that she sometimes used in dance classes or out for a stroll. It made no sounds and was very slinky, which nearly made her fall from another dancer at the studio almost not catching her.

    "Hello everyone." She said with a small grin.

    "I'm Sasha by the by, I don't think we've formerly met." Nodding to both of the new Changelings. The Spring was at the last Freehold gathering, while handsome Darkling she'd never seen before today.

    Dance Bag/Backpack Equipment: rope, carabiners, telescoping staff, pocket knife, quiet soled shoes.

    The young woman hesitates a little when Blink first approaches, then seems to relax - if not actively run over and greet her. The same can't be said for her reaction to Peter. As disarming as he may sound, she's quick to assume a defensive posture. Her arms cross in defiance.

    "This guy with you?" she asks Blink, jerking her head in the aforementioned gentleman's direction.

    Her posture drops back down from defensive to simply anxious when Sera and Sasha make their appearances. "Seraphina. Sasha. I'm guessing Circe couldn't make it?" The flowering girl almost sounds relieved. "I don't mean to interrupt your little meet-and-greet, but if we're all here for the same reason, we need to lay down some ground rules. These two friends of yours?" Her question aimed and bounced between Sera and Sasha.

    "Hey." She responded the Peter.

    "Always." She responded to Sera.

    "Blink." She responded to Sasha.

    Blink kept it short, a rare feat for some of the fairest of them all. Her attention was darting back and forth, catching names and potential ground rules in one go. There was little need to respond to the question, concerning Peter, as the others had entered the fray on conversation. Indeed, now she seemed to simply be sitting on the sidelines watching Sera, Sasha, and Emily?

    Blink could have said more. She could have introduced Peter, but why steal that introduction from him? She was perfectly happy on the side, especially when she had little to no fucking clue what was going on.

    Peter looked to Sera and said, "Hey, good to see you again." They hadn't really talked at the mixer but they had met which was something.

    Sasha on the other hand he had not met yet. He simply said, "Hey. I'm Peter. Nice to meet you." Better to keep it simple.

    Then Emily spoke. Peter was not used to someone being put on the defensive so quickly by his presence. He prided himself on rarely being the center of attention. Rarely drawing more than a once glance, let alone a second. And yet Emily seemed apprehensive of him immediately, but she wasn't apprehensive of Blink, who stood out far more than he. His eyes glanced over her face, trying to infer where the animosity was coming from. Was it that he was male or was it that he was unknown? Maybe it was both?

    The chilled air helped announce the Dancers presence, and Sera smiles, “Hey Sasha.” And while she was tempted to ask her what the staff thing was, now wasn’t really the time.

    It was hard to not notice the change in Emily. While she was on edge when they first met, she seemed to warm a bit. But something had changed.

    Ground rules? There were ground rules now?

    Fighting the urge to roll her eyes,

    “Ground rules?” she asks, then shrugs, “Sure, why not.” She’ll play along.

    “Yeah, recent arrivals, but good people.” Least she hoped. She didn’t know either really well, but she didn’t want to spook Emily any more.
