Blue Birds

[Sonnie Wu]

"I... wait, what?"

Sonnie was confused. The sudden shift in tone from Titania put her a little off-balance. One moment she was flustered and embarrassed, now she was all lusty and seductive? Talk about mood whiplash.

There was spots of color on Sonnie's cheeks when the Bright One leaned forward intimately. "Uh, are you drunk?" The Beast didn't really do anything, she just sort of watched, curious as to what the Fairest was up to. Then there was the briefest of kisses to... her tail? The surge of Glamour in the Contract caused her to jump suspiciously, but then she relaxed as she recognized the particular clause. Eternal Spring was a Contract she knew, herself, and was familiar with it's effects.

The monkey girl sat there, clutching her tail and staring at Titania, who was now once more a blanket-covered lump. She blinked her eyes, processing what just happened.

"I think I need an adult," she whispered hoarsely.

After a minute of silence and thought, she jabbed the lump with a finger. "Hey, Ms. Kissyface. You want me to dream walk with you?" Her eyes got shifty. "What... what sort of dream did you have in mind?"

Yes, her mind was going to lewd places, but she thought it best to be certain.

[Titania]

She lifted the blanket and her head emerged from underneath the covers, bearing a shifty-eyed leer for the monkey. "First, we're going to find the library of King Rhodes, then...", her tone grew moodier and much more serious, "have you ever heard of the leather apron? Jack the Ripper", she pushed the pillow closer to her chest.

[Sonnie Wu]

Her head titled to one side as she responded to the Bright One, "Um, isn't that library inside Rhodes' head? It was his dreamscape. Going there without his permission seems like a bad idea. And not the fun sort of bad idea. Violating the Autumn King's headspace would be a, um, violation." Sonnie shook her head as her last sentence got away from her.

Looking back to Titania, she tapped a forefinger against her lips in thought, "Leather apron? Everyone's heard of Jack the Ripper. Why?"

[Titania]

She gaped goggle-eyed at the monkey. Was she Symian accusing her of criminal trespassing? "Silly monkey, we're not going to lockpick our way in like two vulgar burglars", she giggled, "the Lord might not be asleep for the matter. No, we're going to explore a similar dream and then establish a contact from there", she huffed and tapped her forehead with her index, "duh". Sometimes the monkey didn't really make sense.
"Because I just read a book about Victorian age forensic medicine and another about sleep, you klutz. Of course we have to explore, theory and practice", she said, waving her hands left and right, pleading her case like a consummate thespian.

[Sonnie Wu]

"Vulgar burglars... vulglars!" she smiled and nodded, proud of the new word she had created for no apparent reason. "Good, good, no vulgling for us, then. So, we're going to a different dream library to... read about Jack the Ripper? Mmkay! Lead the way, Starlight!"

The Beast scrambled her way into the blanket next to Titania, causing the skybed to sway only slightly in the process. "So, do we spoon? And if so, do you prefer big or little spoon?"

[Titania]

"Spoon?", she shook her head, "no, thank you. I've already had Tea", again, she disappeared beneath the sheets.

[Sonnie Wu]

"No, spooning is like cuddling while asleep... nevermind. Let's just go to dreamland." Sonnie laughed and settled herself into the bed, getting comfortable so she could drift off reasonably quickly. After a moment, she spoke up.

"Titania? You still awake? Can I have a pillow? I didn't bring mine."

[Titania]

By George! For a wild animal, Sonja was incredibly high maintenance. "Gosh", she sighed, again, leaving the safety of her blankets.
"There you go", she said, launching the star shaped pillow at the monkey. But Fate wouldn't hear any of it, the pillow bounced against one of the vines and back into the Fairest's face, sending her head banging against the wooden headboard of the bed. "Oow", she said with a whimper, massaging the bump with her hand, not far from where her midnight rose lay perched. "This is your fault", the clumsy Fairest is ready to accuse.

  Dramatic Failure!

[Sonnie Wu]

The Beast watched it all play out like it was happening in slow motion. She didn't even have to move when her instincts told her to dodge the plush missile, the Fairest's throw was so bad. Her hands clapped over her mouth to keep herself from laughing at Titania's misfortune. Speak no evil.

Still, she moved over to inspect her fellow Spring's head with genuine concern, "Are you okay, hun? Let me see? I can fix your boo-boo! Can I have that bottle of water back?"

To her credit, she was ignoring the Bright One's blame, but she was also biting her lip to hold back the giggles.

[Titania]

"Sleep", and without further ado, still massaging the bump, she goes back under the covers.
