001 🌺 An Angel [Open]

Who; Inësa/Angel & YOU!
What; Cherishment Event~
Where; Around the city.
When; The month of February.
Warnings; N/A

Inësa was unfamiliar with the event but the idea of Cherishment sent a thrill of excitement down her spine. She wanted to celebrate appropriately.

It was important to learn the various celebrations of mankind and to partake in her own unique way.

Flowing threads of pale wheat-colored hair draped over her shoulders while light pink ribbons weaved through the silky strands. Braids were twisted and tied, pulling her hair away from her face while a wide collection of flowers were artistically arranged to appear as if they were flowing along each braid. Inësa picked out a light pink dress with an open back to allow her wings to stretch before adding white lace cuffs to complete her attire. Her final decision was to forego shoes and wear lace around her ankles instead. It will be cold in the air but she wasn't worried.

Inësa hoped that she looked like a real angel.

Flowers & Flying

The wind cradled her slender frame as Inësa fell into the sky. It was exhilarating to soar through the air and feel the current curl around her wings, lifting her into the clouds. The turbulent currents attempted to hinder her path but a little magic was all it took to calm the circling air.

In her hand was a small woven basket filled with various flowers and crowns that she had collected and weaved together earlier that morning. She didn't have a set plan but she hoped to spot friends and those in need of a smile. With a shift of her wings, she dropped, expanding her wings only when she was closer to the sidewalk. The wind picked up to those on the streets, carrying flower petals across the street as Inësa's bare feet landed on the sidewalk.

"Hello. This is for you." She spoke as she offered a single flower or a crown of roses to her target, a sweet innocent smile shaping her lips.

Chocolates & Cherishment

It was like May Day when she lived in the Sphere but there were more than just flowers and ribbons being sold from the vendors on the streets. There was a menagerie of gifts on display and at the centerpiece of it, all was a set of delectable chocolates.

Inesa took some time to wander through the many shops and view the various trinkets that lined the streets. She wasn't working today but she peeked into A Cut Above to see if they were busy but she hadn't been needed.

There was so much excitement buzzing in the air that she didn't know what to do with herself. She eventually found herself sitting with a box of chocolates that she'd purchased. Of course, she'd heard the rumors about the chocolate's odd effects but she assumed they were innocent. Perhaps the chocolate changed her hair color or made her eyes sparkle. It felt as if something familiar had happened in the past but her memories were too hazy to properly recall.

After tasting a sweet minty flavored truffle Inesa offered chocolates to those she saw walking by. It wasn't that she didn't like them but she didn't need to eat and these sorts of treats tasted better when they were shared and enjoyed with others.

[ooc: feel free to select any chocolate effects or do something that isn't like either of these starters or takes place while Inesa is wandering around the city. I'll roll with anything.]

"That is true. If not for my magic I do not know if I would be able to fly safely." Though she hoped to never find out. Her magic was as much a part of her as a soul was to a human.

"Excuse my rudeness. I do not believe I caught your name." She hoped that she hadn't forgotten it. Her memory wasn't the best though Inesa was trying her best to improve.

"Nor have I caught yours. But I am Lauri-Ell, called Lauri by some," she explained. "I have known some with magic, but not like yours. Yours is like art."

"Lauri-Ell?" Her head tilted to the side as the name resounded within her memories. "LAURI!" Inesa explained excitedly. "Yes, Mr. Llewellyn told me that I should meet you. He said that you had a greenhouse on the roof of the blue apartment building. I love plants and flowers too!"

She flushed at her sudden rambling. "I would love to see it sometime. Oh! And my name is Inesa. That is what people call me."

She's shocked at how eager the woman is in reacting in her name. That was shocking, and when it's explained she's still shocked. Then she's smiling.

"I love plants very much. And to have been growing things has been nice. Young Master Yuki and I, we grow things that are food, or for medicine for the poor. We are helping."

Love to see it? Lauri smiles wider.

"I would be happy to show it to you, Inesa!"

"That is wonderful." She hadn't known that the garden was used for those in need but that knowledge made the entire situation even more exciting. "I apologize if I surprised you. I am an old friend of Llewellyn's and we had been talking about plants and flowers the other day."

Inesa was clueless when it came to social cues but she knew her excitement had been rather unexpected. She'd been surprised at the giddy feeling that overflowed from her chest.

"I would love to see it and help if you need it. My magic works best with healing and nurturing. My friend here is also a water spirit." She placed her hand on her chest and a soft blue glow flickered between her fingertips before disappearing. "Ah. But it is quite shy." She wanted to go look at the garden this instant but Inesa worried that her request would be too much.

"The surprise is as pleasant as you are," Lauri-Ell assured her. But truly, Lauri-Ell was unbothered by the energy and excitement of the other. No, she was glad that her friends spoke well of her. Which is amazing. She loved being known.

"I have never thought of nurturing magic. What does that mean, if I might ask. And I do not know what a water spirit is."

"Ah. Thank you."

Inesa bobbed her head in an excited nod. "I can show you." She looked down at the palm of her hand as it rest against her chest, silently calling the little blue water spirit from within, but there was no light to indicate his presence. "My little spirit friend is shy but maybe when there are more plants around." He liked plants and would often hop between them even if there were people around to see.

"But I can show you some of my magic." Her hands moved to form a cup in front of her as she focused on the space above her fingertips. Inesa exhaled slowly as silver light began to glittens and dance in the air. "My magic helps things grow or heal. It puts the world in the order that it's meant to be." Her cheeks warmed as she tried to remember her teachings. "I admit, I did not finish my studies. So I do not know exactly how it works. I only had two years of learning."

Yes, there was no little blue water spirit, though Lauri-Ell wished there had been. It would be something worth seeing. Magic, though, that was something she'd always be happy to see.

"The Prince's magic creates, but in different ways. Yours would be quite new to me. And I have never seen it silver. It is beautiful as you are."

Ineas hoped that soon they'd be able to go to the garden that she'd been told about. At that time she was sure that her little spirit friend would come out and say hello to Lauri.

"You have a prince?" Her head tilted to the side as if she was unable to imagine such a concept. "Oh." Inesa's cheeks turned red. She wasn't used to this many compliments. "Thank you. Depending on the magic I use it changes color." Her fingers curled inward and a small seed began to grow from her palm, surrounded by a vibrant green glow before forming into a small white flower. "What is your prince's magic like? Is he the only one who can use magic?"

Yes, that should be possible, were she specifically asked to guide the woman.

"Prince-Consort, married to the Emperor. Prince-Consort William is a reality warper mage. What he speaks and wills comes to pass. But his limitation is his own physical strength and stamina I believe. And the fact that I understand he knows he must not solve all problems for all."

"I see." Inesa thought about her own magic and knew that its limitations were set by the culture of Heaven and the teaching of the elders. She hadn't finished her studies and it was for this reason that she rarely used her magic. "My magic is able to do a great deal but I do not alter the world outside of what it knows. It can disrupt the balance and cause more damage. I imagine that your Prince-Consort must keep this in mind as well. If he holds such a high position, he must be very wise."

She thought about her magic and decided that she wanted to help. "Maybe I can use my magic to help in your green house too. If there are any plants that are struggling. I would not mind helping." She didn't know if there were such plants but she wanted to help in some way.

Inesa really liked flowers and plants.

"I do not know if he is wise or not, but he has a good heart," Lauri-Ell answered. And the Emperor loved him. LAuri-Ell was certain that the Emperor was wise.

Or maybe that was just her opinion. One she was quick to share.

"Yuki and I would love that," Lauri-Ell admitted. Because they were not always certain of signs of when things aren't working or are unhealthy.

"That is a type of wisdom too." Inesa grinned happily. She really liked talking to people about their homes and the things they cared about. It was one of those wonderful aspects of life and society that she'd been introduced too since leaving home. Everyone had thought the same way there and it'd been incredibly confining.

"I am glad to hear that. The garden is on the roof of one of the buildings, yes? The blue one. Could you maybe show me around sometime? I would love a tour of the garden and the plants you have there." She didn't want to just barge in.

"Blue dorm," she agreed with a nod. "It will take me a little to get there, if you would like a tour now."

It was not like she had other things now.

"Are you free?" Inesa pushed the basket of flowers to rest on the inside of her elbow before holding out her hand to Lauri-Ell. "I can fly us there." It would be a short flight and the building roofs were flat, making landing much easier than some of the ornate buildings in the city.

"You can trust me." She wouldn't drop her.

"I am giving out gifts, so yes, in many ways, yes, I am quite free."

Though Lauri-Ell would expect herself too heavy to be carried.

"I fear it may be difficult to carry me."

Inesa shook her head gently from left to right. "I will use magic to carry you. So it does not matter what you weigh but it is okay if you are uncertain. We have only just met." She wasn't going to force someone into the air, it could be scary if you weren't ready for it.

"But if you want to, I would be happy to fly us there." It would be a quick flight since they were in the center of the town. "Or we can meet there later tonight."

"No, if you believe it possible, then I will agree," she said with a smile. It was that simple to trust. She knew many who could fly after all. Too bad her hammer didn't seem to confer it here as it should.

"But I've many packages to deliver. Later would be better."

"Later then." Inesa agreed with her usual smile. She wasn't going to force Lauri-Ell to adhere to her schedule. They would find a time and be able to talk more freely. "Please let me know when you are available. My schedule is a bit turbulent."

Working part-time instead of full-time meant that her hours often shifted from week to week to cover those who needed time off.

"I believe we can reach each other using these talk phones."

"I promise I shall," Lauri-Ell smiled. To be able to show the things she and Yuki have encouraged into life would be a proud moment for her.

"And yes, I shall try and call you."

"Thank you Lauri" Inesa smiled before gently stretching her wings and lifting herself into the sky. "I will see you then."

She tried to be careful but there was a bit of wind washing over the walkway as Inesa lifted herself into the sky.
