*Entering and going back to her room. shutting the door but leaving it only Half shut now*

*after almost 2 hours, finally comes in*

*hears the door open and shut and pokes her head out* Nio?

hey mom

*Goes over and Hugs him tightly. and then Plucks one of his Shoulder feathers* Don't fly off like that! You had me worried... Now.. Come sit and talk to me.. Please?

okay. But don't throw away that feather. Can use it for the tea later.

*Rolls her eyes and places it on the table next to them. going to sit on the couch* Forget that right now.. Come and talk to me.. What happened? Why did you fly away like that? The girl was tryna talk to ya...

She... said she.. well you 'eard 'er mom.. And then there's the jealousy and da accusations. It all lines up. She be trying to push me friends away.

Nio.... You've known Twyla since you be Nestlings. When has she ever lied to ya or had reason to? And Just because you haven't seen these things yourself. does not make them untrue... I know myself how cruel females can be when they Desire a male.

21:42

When your... Uhm... Father first came to our Village. Many of the others were infatuated with his unique features.. They Bullied me to no end when they found out i became the mother of his nestling (edited)

Exactly. So if females be cruel to each other, who do I believe yeah? Who be bullying who? With Twyla, I now know why she would, but none of the other girls have made a move or said anything. So How do I know it's not a game like you said, they can be cruel to each other.

Because you know Twyla more than any of those others.. She's the only one that would actually care about you as an individual.. Not for your looks or popularity like the rest...

21:48

I mean if she was anything like them don't you think she'd be hounding you constantly and making it obvious from the start she wanted you?

But she not be like the others mom. She's quiet, and shy. But isn't that why she would want to push them away? No others around to have to compete against yeah?

No.. It's the reason They would target her in the first place.... She is smaller. Shy. Not our species... You don't think that wouldn't make her a target? It makes her the biggest of all of them.

But even if dat be true, den what? I don know if I be wanting to slow down and not be who I be motha? I like me friends, I like me parties. I have fun motha. What if I no want to be givin dat up?

*She just smiles. and caresses his cheek* Who you are. the way you are. That's what she loves about you. You'll Find middle ground.. You'll COMPLIMENT one another my son.. Not hold eachother back... You wouldn't want her to change herself. she would not want you to change yourself. you can only bring out the best sides of one another if you only gave it a chance..

21:57

But speak to her... And listen...

21:57

I know love when i see it...

But how do you know motha.... When did you decide... when did you decide you loved dad... and why did you let him leave...

I may not have seen Love in your fathers eyes. Certainly not what i would think was love. but i have seen the way others who love one another look at eachother... As... For your father... I Started to feel what i did for him when we.... When... When he... Gave me you.. That moment. His gentleness. The closeness i felt to him i... I didn't know what it was then.. I thought it was just the heat of the moment and... Because we went to sleep after the fact i didn't really have time to think too much about it... i had planned to talk to him about it when i woke up but... when i did. he was gone... and the pain came... the pain i never expected i'd feel.. and that's when i realized... I loved him... (edited)

22:04

We'd talked before that. about many things. and even before we made you that night. but it wasn't until our bodies finally connected i Truly felt it.. It was so passionate.. Not what you'd expect for a one night stand... and he was so sweet i... The feelings just finally came to the surface... but too late..

Okay mom... i'll listen... *hugging her* I wont make da same mistake. But mom... *he sits back hands on her shoulders* You need to tell dad how you feel yeah? If we be fixing my love life, we be fixing yours too yeah?

*Rests her hand on his he placed on her shoulder* Oh Nio... My sweet son... it's far too late for that now... and that isn't what matters... And besides.. nobody could know where to find him... Now go... Go find her yeah?..

22:11

I love you.. don't ever doubt that, Alright?..

I know mom.... but that can wait... I need to get your tea ready.

*She smiled a bit* Alright alright... if it means you'll stop Squawkin' at me about it yeah? (edited)

Just shut up and take yer medicine yeah? *he teases her, before standing to get it started*

*Looks down at the feather on the table he forgot to grab. and holds it between her thumb and pointer finger. looking at it for a long moment. and then over at him. and lays it on her lap for now. having gotten an idea*

*starts igniting the small fire, and setting the pot on the coals to wait for it to start heating up, meanwhile looking around for the other ingredients*

Nio?

Yeah mom?

I... Think i've got an idea...

Oh yeah? First one in a while yeah? *riffing on her being essentially a hermit for a while, still looking around for ingredients "let's see, some lavander, oh, and some honey... yeah that'll be good... hmmm... should I do jasmine flower? They are rare here... You know what dis is special.... " grabs it*

Well it's more often than not customary to give your chosen mate a gift... One of your Feathers. Something that's a part of you. But because Your father and i.... well... I got more than a feather.. But something just as if not more precious and valuable..

22:31

So... Assuming things go well. *Holding up the feather*

What? No! Mom... *comes over and takes the feather* That one is for you... You picked it... That makes it yours... *going over and tossing it in the pot* If things go "well" then maybe you can pick one for her yeah? But none of dat right now. We can talk about dat more after da tea yeah?

*She chuckles* Alright Alright...

Suddenly the door is on the floor as Uri kicks it in landing on it, in the center of their common room

Nio! I need to talk to you.

My door man...

Don't worry about that. Listen. we've been friends for a long time yeah?

You need to knock softer

Would you pay attention? Look. I talked to Twyla

Not not Uri

Yes! Now... *turns to Hula* Sorry ma'am... *turns back to Nio* We've been brothers for a while right. Well Twyla tells me some of the girls here are being cruel and...

I'm aware.

Then you know we need to do something about it right? Listen, I know you don't believe her, she's told me, but I have an idea. I just need you to trust me.

Hello to you too Uri..

How can I trust someone who murdered my door?

Will you forget about the door.. lifts it and shoves it against the wall where it "should" be Listen brotha... I have an idea.

I'm listening... as he's finishing her tea What?

Twyla's on her way here or... she will be look... I need you to go to the bar and get your drinks like you usally do.

Say no more brotha...

No no

You're saying more...

Listen damn it... after you get your drinks you and I are going to pretend to leave, but we'll hide nearby. You'll see how they are when they think you're gone. That's all I ask, then you do with that information what you will. All I want is for you to see the truth yourself.

That seems shady bro.

So is being a manipulative cunt, look, just do this for me okay..

Yeah yeah.. okay okay... go fix my door.

*Facepalms*

*goes to attempt to put the door back* Sorry again ma'am

*Just waves him off with her hand* It's quite alright it needs to be replaced anyhow..

I never be forgetting a good drink.... But I gotchu.. i'll be dere yeah? Now let me finish this okay brudda?

Fine.. but hurry up.

The party waits for me yeah? Relax, go get a couple in before I get there so you calm down yeah?

Yeah yeah.... see you out there.. *steps outside*

*finishes boiling the tea and starts pouring their cups* Sorry about that motha... Why do everyone be trying to get involved in my life all of a sudden...*sitting down with her* I was fine two days ago yeah? First the strangers, now all dis?

Not sure my son but... Don't worry about it too much. *She said. Taking her cup and swirling it around a little.* Thank you.

Oh motha.... you know you be da only one I be worrin about.

*She chuckles* I'll be fine.. *She takes a sip of her tea and sighs* You always did make the best tea..... Better than me even.

Hey, I learned form the best yeah? *hears the music* You coming tonight? It is about you after all...

Of course i will. it'd be very rude of me not to after all yeah?

Very rude... *he teases and heads out*

*Finishes her tea and follows after him*

*coming in with Twyla*

You know... I get why you told her to report to the elders, but... She is young.... They may show grace.... Hopefully....

It's not for me to decide, it's not our culture, and she knew dat. She'll take whatever punishment our elders see fit.

*she nods* I know.... I know.... I just.... I never wanted to cause any problems....

You didn't cause problems Twyla. You exposed them yeah? Thank you for trying to tell me. Even if I wasn't ready to listen eh. Come on... go get cleaned up. I'll wait here yeah?

*she smiles a little as she heads to clean herself up*

*waits*

*as she is washing her face in the mirror and water, she is trying hard not to cry. the words getting to her head more than she'd like to admit. "he doesn't love you", "you're being clingy and pushing him away", "he'd rather be partying than chained to your side"... sure, he knows the truth, but what now? what if he still doesn't feel that way for her? ..............what if this IS pity?.........these thoughts cirlce her head like vultures over a corpse. making her tremble from the weight of most of them. letting out quiet sobs. but she quickly tries to shove it all down so she can finish cleaning up and leave....and leave she does. walking back into the livingroom*

All betta?

For the most part.... *sits on the couch*

*was hoping they'd go back outside, but sits next to her* Hey what's wrong eh? Don tell me ye be belivin dem girls now.

*instantly goes quiet*.....

Hey come on now... You betta dan dem. You not fake. Dont be changin for dem, or me for dat mattah, I like you because you're you yeah? Don't go changin on me now.

You wouldn't like it more at all if I was more of a social butterfly?....

Hey I know a lot of dem types, but I only know one Twyla. And if dat don make ye special, i don know what will yeah?

I'm not special, Nio....

Well if you no special. den neither am I yeah?

What?... You're the most unique person I've ever met!... The way you stand out is the whole reason the Briar situation happened.... I wanted to help you figure out where your father may have been from.... And I still feel guilt over how that turned out.... I love that you always try to drag me to socialize... even if I protest, even if I try to make excuses, you still drag me along.... I love that you try to make sure everyone has a good time.... every single night... without fail... I love when your wings catch the sunlight and have this shiny effect.... I laugh every time Uri tries to beat you in a race and fails every time... *chuckles a little thinking about it* his reactions are pricelesss... he gets so frustrated.... and I love that you care about your mother so deeply... it's sweet.... I also love your horns.... there's none like them anywhere in Xexia as far as history books and travel guides go.... *takes his hand* I love you... you've always been there for me...
