DANCING BEARS, PAINTED WINGS
Halloween.
It was absolutely foreign to her, she had only read about it being a way to scare away ghouls or demons with dressing up scary or whatnot. She could not recall all of which she read but mostly because she got bored of the subject as a whole so when the young femme heard voices outside it had piqued her interest. She should probably be sleeping but she was much too busy writing back to her penpals that resided within the Typhoon, she glanced over at her lantern that was lit only to pry her window open to get a good glimpse of who was out there. Some cheetah chick and Aurum, it was good to see a familiar face and it was enough to coax her outside as she turned the lantern off and put away her writing for later. Archimedes wasn't far behind as he glides down to the ground only to hop after Sophiea with a few soft shrieks leaving his beak, Sophie pushing the door open to her home only to glance over to Elsweyr and Aurum realizing that the both of them were wearing masks. It was enough to make her snout wrinkle with confusion as she stared at the both of them, Archimedes having been hopping behind her only to stop and hiss at the two of them.
"Ah... What are the masks for?" She began to inquire with an awkward shuffle of her forepaws only to lightly brush a single paw onto her owl companion to try and calm him though to her dismay it was barely working. A celebration? What kind of celebration? She could only imagine what it was but then again, she had only been within Tanglewood for some time and mostly stayed in the safety of her home. Her ears twitched lightly for a moment realizing that she should probably introduce herself, her jaws parted as she spoke after clearing her throat "How rude of me... My name is Sophiea, I have yet to meet you-" She glanced over to the cheetah though her gaze shifted over to Aurum as she continued with a soft snort "And I haven't seen a lot of you, you knob."
