I FLEW TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN-
There was something intoxicating about the bubbling activity usually found within the tavern, something so ... exhilarating about the different kinds of people and stories that they could tell you all about. They'd been drawn in from riding warm drafts out above the ocean, the hankering for communication and the familiar warmth of a drink all but driving the Icarian back to shore and the familiar faces of their groupmates. What they wouldn't give to have a new friend, even better if they had wings, to go about the territory with. An excited screech left them as they dove through the air in a head-first plummet south to the sandy beaches below, wings folded close before snapping open at the last second. Drifting down, they closed their wings when it was a safe distance to drop to the sands, shaking out their dark and pale fur before trotting into camp.
The sounds of the tavern all but leaked out of the building and pulled a twitch of their whiskers. What was going on there? They were all but drawn into the hub-bub and excitement of their fellow pirates, the hybrid chirping as they tripped over a passed out NPC. Righting themself, they headed for the tavern, just seeing the last of Disco Hijack disappearing into it's entry. Flicking an ear, the feline trotted forward, wings folded to their sides to give others space as they padded in, mindless of the pause in sound, smiling and laughing along with some of the younger members, tossing out a few flirtatious comments to those that winked or smiled at them.
Smoothing down ruffled fur upon their chest and shoulders, they shuffled towards the bar, drinking in the scents and sounds with delight. It was lively, and they were happy for it. It wasn't so long ago that a storm had threatened them all and their happiness here, the damage could still be seen in places but recovery was more apparent. Padding up beside Disco Hijack, they offered the other a smile, "Same for me, boss!", they echoed his own order, sitting down and shaking out their wings with a shudder, "Well 'ello there! Are ya' new to these parts? Don't think 've seen you're pelt around, yet. Sabbath, pleasure to meet ya'.", they offered him their paw to shake, a pleasant smile on their face.
AND I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT'S GOLDEN TEARS.
