I wanted to mess around more with the high ponytail hairstyle. And then a chair appeared. And then it became this XDD
@dancing-duo
The crew of Hammer and Thread were well over halfway through their latest trip, now headed toward Treno after their last stop in Lindblum. As usual, Rouge was at the helm, keeping a careful eye on the skies before them.
And, at the moment, she was additionally locked in conversation.
“So, I was thinking we could stop by the orphanage, before we set up,” she suggested, making a graceful gesture with her free hand. The other was kept lightly on the steering wheel. Beside her, perched atop a nearby chair, Taylor nodded, leaning back casually in his seat.
“We’ll go there first,” he agreed without protest. There was something else to say, too, and he opened his mouth to speak further-
Instead it was drowned out by a loud THUD against the front window.
…………
In the next second Taylor was on the move, headed for the hatch leading to the roof of the ship. His retreating form was followed by the words of Rouge, inquiring something along the lines of;
“…Was that a leg?”
When Engel wanted to have a “close up and personal interaction” with the residents of the sky today, he certainly had not meant it to result in a full on collision with an airship. In fact, the poor feathered being had not even realized the presence of the large vessel while swooping among the clouds. He had been dipping in and out of the floating clusters of condensed vapor and following a flock of birds. Once he was among them the lead fowl gave a squawk of alarm before all the birds darted away in formations. Engel hadn’t even the time to wonder if it was because of him they scattered or something else, for he ungracefully made greeting with the airships window as Engel exited out of the cloud cover.
Tumbling head over tail on the top of the ship, Engel became disoriented as to where was up versus down. A series of distressed chirps squeaked from him, almost masking the hardy RIIIIPP noise on his back. Gravity and friction at last brought the flustered being to a halt, every ebony feather puffed across his body. Engel folded his wings to keep from being swept airborne, fingers digging into the floor of the ship as a startled cat with sheathed claws might.
Engel huffed and puffed with agitation, visibly shaken. What a horrible accident! Where did the airship even come from? As trace feathers scattered in the wind from him, Engel’s gaze fell upon an approaching man with striking red hair. Oh dear, he hoped this encounter was not hostile for his mistake.
“Aah…h-hi? Hello? I’m terribly s-sorry for that…”
No doubt the leg Rouge saw was connected to the bird-like being currently clinging to the ship.
Taylor briefly observed the stranger, giving no real indication as to his intention. The passive tilt of his mouth helped matters little more. Though, upon taking in the sight of the other’s clothing…
He frowned.
“Your shirt. It’s damaged,” the redhead stated bluntly. It wasn’t exactly…hostile, at least. And, steady in his movements, he offered out his hand, ready to help the other up.
“Come inside. I’ll fix it.”
tailoringtay:
The clarification came just as curtly as his greeting.
“Yes.”
He led the way back to the interior’s entrance, standing by for Engel to enter first before making any move to follow suit.
Inside, Rouge had been keeping an eye on the stairs leading up to the deck (though her attention remained primarily on the window out front. One could never know when more legs might follow). As such, she was quick to speak up when footsteps came climbing down.
“Is everything alright?”
There was no turning back now. Engel had given trust to the red-haired stranger and entered into his domain. Call him naive to be so trusting, but truly the avian did not feel any need to fear…yet.
As he descended the stairway, the being flicked his feather tufts in the direction of the new voice. Entering into the room, Engel made way at the bottom for the man to descend. Waiting, he turned his attention to the dark beauty in the room.
“Hello. My apologies for crashing into your ship, ma’am. I suppose I caused you and your crew a bit of a disturbance. Engel Neuman.”
Taking a few steps towards the woman, he held out a gloved hand to shake in greeting.
Dark tired eyes, an exhausted slumped posture, this simply would not do. Soon the red haired tailor was draped in several blankets, some fluffed pillows, and the snuggled form of Engel pressed against Tay’s side and back. The feathered creature was in full bristle, soft ebony feathers puffed like a mama bird to cover its brood.
The stubborn, worn tailor needed rest. Thus, a forcement of “nesting” appeared to be in order. Hemming and embroidery could wait until the man had had a decent time to sleep.
Cue a muffled grunt, delayed til Engel was already half done with his plan.
This wouldn’t do. He was going to work. There was plenty strength in him to get up, even without much difficulty, bird or no. The tailor had every intent to do so-
“Blanket pile party!” Cookie exclaimed, flopping down next to Engel.
“Oof-” Tay wheezed in turn.
….
Scratch getting up.
Happy birthday @dancing-duo ~! :3
I hope you have an excellent one >8D
angel: do you like ‘bad boys’ or sweethearts more? 100th date: would you prefer to stay in or go out this valentine’s?
💌 25 valentine’s day asks
angel: do you like ‘bad boys’ or sweethearts more?
“Truth be told, I really enjoy the “bad boys” the most. They can be exciting and really give my heart a rush of adrenaline, like when I’m on stage performing. I love feeling protected and vulnerable at the same time. Even “bad boys” can have a tender, sweet side. I feel privileged if given the chance to witness that. Also...I’m mostly subdominant in relationships and love to have someone “boss” me around a bit~”
100th date: would you prefer to stay in or go out this valentine’s?
“I imagine I’ll be staying in this Valentine’s Day. Overall, I really don’t “go out” at all nowadays. Which is fine. I’d sooner curl up under some soft blankets with a good book than go out to a fancy restaurant. If...a colleague or friend wanted me to come hang out, I would consider it. Hopefully nothing too over zealous, maybe just hanging out together at each others home and sharing a cup of hot tea.”
11. In what situation was your character the most afraid they’ve ever been? (for Geoffrey)
Character Development “Hard Mode” Meme: send a number & character to my ask box and I’ll write an answer/headcanon in reply.
Geoffrey isn’t one to normally feel fear, however he has experience it :3 When the vampire was recaptured by his clan and threatened to be exterminated, Geoffrey’s response was cocky and taunting. However when put into a chamber and restrained, the executioners opened a hatch on the ceiling to expose sunlight.
As it crept closer towards Geoffrey he began to realize his true dire situation and begged for mercy. He was slightly burned from the sun but finally they spared him. The rouge vampire was then put through intense “therapy” to reintegrate him into their society.
14. Does your character remember names or faces easier? (For Max)
Character Development “Hard Mode” Meme: send a number & character to my ask box and I’ll write an answer/headcanon in reply.
Defiantly faces :3 Overtime Max begins to forget people’s names but will almost always remember their face. Since he is still artistic he will paint or draw faces he remembers. Perhaps it is to remind him he once had company, was loved, and had a life worth living. He is lonely and longing for his old life; the faces and recreating them give him a little of that satisfaction.
🧠 + clothing for Prism Hue
Send🧠+ a word for my a headcanon for my muse in association with that word.
Prism Hue loves to create with his drawing utensils. And guess what? Clothing is one of the things he has a high interest in!! His own design may be a bit too vibrant for some eyes, but he really does desire to learn how to design clothing better. Currently he can design and bring to reality basics, such as shirts with simple designs, pants and shorts, scarfs and hats. The creation enthusiast could certainly use some guidance and even consider becoming an apprentice if the chance were to arise ;)
