It's Dangerous To Go Alone, Take This (test scene)
"Annivila... Annivila Restituos, are you heeding my words?" Oberon, father of all High Fairies, King of the Fey, and Lord of the kingdom of Fairyland on the island of Avalon, in Otherworld, called for his granddaughter's renewed attention, his voice a low and ethereal rumble.

"Hrm?" Annivilla Restituos Wisdom, daughter of Tinkabelinos Hardleg and Peter Wisdom, looked up. Most of her attention had been on the bone she'd just snapped open to suck the marrow from. "Of course, Grandfather. We were talking about my magic lessons." She flitted up to his shoulder, munching on the now emptied bone.

"Not precisely, child. We were discussing the conclusion of your lessons." Oberon corrected her. "We have always known that your mixed blood has made you unique among our people, and your talent does you and our line credit, but your skils in invocation, have--"

"-have dead-ended, you can get to the point, Grandfather. Daddy taught me all about how people in charge like taking so long getting to the point." Anni interrupted, kicking her legs back and forth, gently tapping her heels against Oberon's shoulder armor, as she finished the bone. "There's something wrong inside me, isn't there?"

Oberon bristled, but continued, amidst the wariness of his retainers. "Yes. There is still much more for you to learn, and to inspire, however. You cannot stagnate, granddaughter. To that end, your mother and I have discussed matters, and agreed that it is time for you to reside with your father."

"You're sending me to live with Daddy? Aces!" She flies in a circle around Oberon's head, before swinging in to gently kiss his forehead, beneath the brow of his helmet. "Thank you, Grandfather! There's so much I've been wanting to see. First I'm going to get Daddy to take me to the Louvre, and then to America so I can see all the museums in New York, and--"

"ANNIVILA." Oberon's voice shook the chamber, and the half-fairy immediately settled down, descending and folding her wings obediently.

"Yes, Grandfather."

"While your father and his allies are...formidable, I am not so convinced of his ability to keep you safe. To that end, I have arranged for you to bring a retainer with you. He is of suitable station, and his loyalty has been without question."

"He?"

"Zephyros, you may enter." Oberon beckons, and a pair of attendants draw back a mossy curtain.

	Zip enters and bows, a little nervous. This was big. "Thank you, Majesty." (Reply to this)(Thread)

Anni flits over, circling the wind sprite as he enters, eyes wide, but saying nothing.

Oberon does not wait for his granddaughter's curiosity to subside. "Zephyros, as I have discussed with Annivila, she will be departing for the human world. Your tutors inform me of you proficiency both with you magicks and your knowledge of the human world. Along with your flawless loyalty, I have chosen you to accompany her, to see to her safety and acclimation.

Her father... has an unfortunate trend with the women in his life. I would not see the Princess share the same fate."

	Zip nods, swallowing. "I will do my utmost to live up to their confidence, Majesty." This was big. Taking care of the princess. Taking his studies beyond the academic level. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anni circles the young sprite a few more times, before moving in close, practically nose to nose with him. She glances between him and Oberon a few times. "You're very pretty. Do you like art?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank you, Highness. So are you. Yes, I like art." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"My hair's always getting messy, and it's impossible to get a good pair of jeans here. I keep wearing out the ones Daddy gets me. I'm going to have a lot of shopping to do, and I'll need to practice my magics to make sure my clothes change with me. Can't very well turn back to full size in the middle of a tube ride and be in my starkers.

I want to study the great works in the human world. Are you okay with going to museums?

Also, I eat a lot of curry, and fried chicken." She chatters at him as she flits from point to point in her questioning, although she seems to have stopped circling.

Oberon rumbles. "I believe the two of you will serve your respective duties well. You will leave one fortnight hence." He dismisses them.

	Zip bows and exits, then answers. "I am fine with museums, Highness. And we will be careful about clothing issues." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Anni flits up to kiss her grandfather on the cheek, then back to her new companion, as she exits with him.

"I'll have to get you something. Daddy says that with all the mutants and such popping up left and right, wings and similar bits and bobs aren't an issue, but clothing can still be striking. Hmmm." She briefly paws at his collar.

"We'll need to get yours custom made. A nice suit with assurances of no metal in the waist catch or cufflinks." And she'll prattle on, a general sign of approval of a situation.

	Anni cringed. "Are you going to be 'highness'ing me a lot? I really don't go for all that formal court stuff. Of course, your name sounds pretty formal all by itself." She peered at him. "I think I'm going to call you... Zip." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"..That will suffice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, come on then... I suppose I'd better go help you get packed. Then we can work on my stuff." She flashes him a toothy smile and flies in a small loop, before hovering behind him, expectantly. (Reply to this)(Parent)
