I have met some who say, "I was human, once. A two-legged creature who walked streets and huddled with my kind like bees. Our hives were many stories tall. We lived without meaning or purpose, and died the same. Yes, a human..."

I remember such creatures, surely.

Creatures who floated below me,
Swimming 'round a clear fish bowl.

I remember this much.

But I feel I've forgotten something.
Something important.
A face. A smile.

Two eyes that haunt me.

My little fish, my little bee,
Thousands of miles below.
Iron Loyalty

♣ Mattie, Ravus
I don't care. Don't care what we said or did, or what I thought. None of it matters. I just want you both by my side again. Nothing matters, nothing is important, if I can't accomplish that.

"I'm sorry I kept abandoning

"I'm sorry I kept abandoning you, my little darling. Ravus is so rarely sad... I never know what to do, but I needed to try something."

"Something" being attempted butt nuzzles..... >>;;

((Buttnuzzles seemed to be working, didn't it? Phy is a bundle of entertainment- big, fluffy entertainment.<3 We may sit more frequently, I'm getting tired- and so is Darling.. Actually, I'm exhausted.. and forgive me for not typing his reply, I haven't really thought of how to portray him through text, yet.))

edit: Mmmff, total adoration. I'm going to bed, soon, though..

edit(again): By the way, was he once someone's pet bird? Or perhaps.. hm.

❀❀❀
shaku's picture

Indeed, they did XD And you

Indeed, they did XD And you don't need to reply unless you feel compelled~ I just find that I'm too often apologizing for my boys when they could be apologizing for themselves. And Phylux is perfectly happy sitting, haha~

Ninja'd by edits! Aww, Phy will be very sad to see him go.

Ooooh, good guess~ And that actually sounds like a really cool idea. But no, he was nothing earthly, although you can look at his last form as a sort of pet, as he kind of still is XD He has unwavering loyalty and gives his heart very innocently and very easily, much like a dog~

Darling's picture

I understand, it's pleasant

I understand, it's pleasant to hear what he has to say. My Darling is a creature of few words. He doesn't even really bleat much, unless he's calling for someone(or I happen to hit the wrong hotkey, hehe..)

Oh, hum.. I haven't a clue, then. Don't tell me, though, I want to figure it out~

Mm.. pillow is calling me.. time for goodbyes..

Phylux can be very talkative

Phylux can be very talkative XD;; But has no problem with silence, either.
(Lol, like when I accidentally had him lower his antlers when he was laughpouting over the pelt spell? I was like, "AHHH LAUGH LAUGH SEE NOT ANGRY")

It isn't really... like... a "thing," although it's based on quite a few things XD;; So don't push yourself too hard. It isn't really a secret, I just haven't gotten around to revealing his storyline yet XD

;A; I wish mine would do that... Good night!

For some reason, its only creatrue spells. >.<

Lol! You mean thanks for that

Lol! You mean thanks for that ONE spell Phy cast that turned her into a dove?

But if we're judging by "it's the thought that counts," you're welcome XD Haha~

xDD Sorry I had to cut it

xDD Sorry I had to cut it short. Dinner time. ♥

Nice to have Dinamo meet Phylux, anyways! ;D

The silver-sided doe, still

The silver-sided doe, still slightly fuming from a recent encounter with Gustiro, sat in the Blue Bowl with a slight scowl upon her face. She was having staring contests with blueberries to take her mind off of the red stag. Of course, she couldn't really win against an inanimate and eyeless object, so she eventually resorted to simply laying down her head and listening to the birds that rested in her antlers.

~random suggestion~ Methinks

~random suggestion~ Methinks his character could better be portrayed in forest by the antelope(owl)mask ^^

He is so fluffy and adorable

Dinamo; Sorry for my late

Dinamo; Sorry for my late response! I didn't see this! D:

Ryff:
Phylux sniffed the air, catching a familiar scent on the breeze. It had been a long time since they'd met, but he was sure he recognized it. The fact that it was surrounded by the sweet smell of flowers only spurred him faster toward the blue bowl.

ForTwoLifetimes; The owl mask, to me, seems very unhappy :3 Phy is anything but. The skull mask, aside from actually matching his pelt, has a smile on its face. But thank you for your input! I love character feedback.

The sound of approaching

The sound of approaching hooves alerted the molting hind to the approach of a large stag. Not just any stag. She could smell him and almost immediately recognized who it was, but she couldn't place the name. Looking up to the direction of the hoofbeats, she saw a large creature with black 'swirly thingies' on his back...and a beak. Why, that wasn't just any stag! "Phylux?" she asked, stunned to see an old aquaintance.

A quick screenie edit. <3

LMFAO @ that screenie! Ohman,

LMFAO @ that screenie! Ohman, that's totally Phy... oblivious XD;;

The stag wove his way through the blue flowers toward the source of the voice. "Ryff," he croaked, pausing once he noticed her somewhat sour expression. She was... not pleased to see him? Or something else, perhaps? "Are you alright, little miss?"

I'm sorry, my eyes seemed to have fallen out of my head and rolled away from the awesomeness. ^^

LMAO. Thank you very much! XD

LMAO.
Thank you very much! XD I could say the same thing about Namaste's bio!

Now seeing him clearly, her

Now seeing him clearly, her expression softened into a small smile. "Oh, I'm fine. Just...a little peeved at someone." She rose from the flowers and shook out her fur, sending flower petals everywhere. Her once grey fur had become metallic blue, similar to the sky just after sunset. "Nothing to worry about. My, where have you been? I haven't seen you at all in ages."

Ryff; Phylux cocked his head

Ryff;
Phylux cocked his head with curiosity, although he didn't press the matter. If she didn't want to talk about it, he wasn't going to force her. "I've been... about. Trying to find warmth in a forest gone cold. It wasn't an easy task," he chuckled, remembering his various failures. Now that the forest was warm again, his winter coat was beginning to fall, leaving feathers and fur tufts in his wake.

ElMuerteRojo; Thank you~!

Wew am I ever late. Well.

Wew am I ever late. Well. Mini-Ryff (which is now perma-Ryff) is quite happy snuggled up with Phy.

"You make a great blanket. ~<3"

Lol! I love these little

Lol! I love these little mini-RPs because they're so informal~

"Do I? And you are a good pillow," Phylux cawed, smiling as best a beaked deer could smile. He was more than pleased to see his friend, and had been pleasantly surprised at her small physique.

And way eaier to stay on top

And way eaier to stay on top of.

She curled her face into his belly fluff and let out a muffled grunt. "Hush, Mr. Blanket. Blankets don't talk."
shaku's picture

Tell me about it

Tell me about it XD

Phylux let out a low snort, but complied, delicately preening her small head. It was difficult to resist something so tiny.

Ryff's dark blue ear flicked

Ryff's dark blue ear flicked as a wayward feather brushed against it but remained otherwise still, until she returned the gesture and groomed his strong, white side.

Phylux paused, turning his

Phylux paused, turning his head slightly. He wasn't used to others grooming him in return, especially not when they were in his charge. He was supposed to be taking care of her, yes? And would she rise to her feet, antlers bared, if they were attacked? The mental image made him smile. Still, it was nice, this returned favor.

^ She probably would. And get

^ She probably would. And get mauled. xD
--------

It was simply how she thought it should be; someone does something for you, no matter what it is, you always do something in return. So she gently and somewhat clumsily groomed his feathers, swishing her little tail happily.

I love this character! I’ve

I love this character! I’ve seen art of him before and I just love his look. Very valiant how he was trying to protect Herla too. Hope to see more of him around. Smiling

Ryff; ♥ I think I'll leave it there, if that's okay with you? (Rofl late reply is late...) I like that image :3

Sighthound; I had seen art of your Herla on dA, but didn't know her picto! I'm sure you'll see plenty of him, once he and Ravus patch things up. He's extremely fond of minis~

Love the colors. Track

Love the colors. Track <3
Soft steps making almost no sound as the doe walked, and wings so white they seemed to glow, Wings- the doe, seemed like she was floating. She didn't know where she going, but her thin legs pushed on. A smell drifted into her nose, one of a deer.. or was it? She looked around, spotting what seemed like black wings. Demon? She froze. "Hello?" The doe asked cautiously.
shaku's picture

(Thankyooou! &hearts;

(Thankyooou! ♥ X3)

Phylux looked up from the pond, his hooves and legs covered in dried, flaking mud. His gaze was hollow as it locked on the soft form of the doe. Seemingly gentle, with delicate features... but her muscles looked strong enough. She had no need for him. Therefore, he had no energy to spare for her. Still, there was no reason to make enemies. His throat cracked, dry from disuse, as he simply replied, "Can I help you?" It was, of course, a rhetorical question, ironically mirroring a deep-seeded desire that the doe could not satisfy.

FeatherBound's picture

The doe was caught in her own

The doe was caught in her own mind when the stag spoke, and she flinched reflexively. "Sorry to bother you... I was spooked for a moment." She peered behind the long grass and saw the male, sitting next to the pond. She ruffled her wings in anticipation. "I guess I was just looking for company.. I'm Wings. Do you mind if I sit?" Her head cocked slightly at the question, her voice fluid; but guarded.
shaku's picture

An ear pricked at her words.

An ear pricked at her words. Spooked? That was a natural reaction to a threat, but there was no threat to her here. Strange. "I am not bothered," he said truthfully. "But if you are looking for company, you may find me inadequate." Upon closer inspection, one would find his pelt littered with small twigs, grass, and dirt. For those who had known him, it would've been difficult to imagine that a bird so keen on hygiene sat in such filth.
