Scare grinned back at Dorphin, even though that menacing grin was obviously not meant for her, and showed her teeth. Not particularily even, and none to pleasing to the eye, being longer than acceptible and pointed. "Fsssssssssssssss!"

Valerian turned towards Endorphin said in a low tone of voice. "You should be careful who you shows those too. Fairlies collect teeth you know, white perfect teeth. Pretty teeth, pretty teeth all in a row. Take one out and he'll scream no."
Valerian fluttered over towards Scare's shoulder and found a good place to land grabbing onto her for support as he landed on her.
"I don't think he likes you." Valerian wispered to Scare.

Scare twisted her head at a strange angle to stare at Valerian. "F-f-f-ff-fsssss-sssssss...?!" That was an oddity of a statement. If Dorphin didn't like her, Scare reasoned, he would most likely have killed her when he had the chance... And he had obviously been able to.
Scare settled further down into the leaves, even though Val was on her shoulder, and replaced her usual vaguely demented expression of elated interest and slight obsession with a faint smile of peace.

" after a while Zolah stood up smiling, she felt how her power was fully back. now it was enough of feeding time for some conversations."
- So.. I dont really remember but who was it that game me the bottle or blood? i was very near to go back to my slumber without that. I must say I am very gratefull. Is there any particular reasons people just came here? you must excuse me, my mind was very clouded while i was in deep hunger.

"I'm here because of that spider web." Valerian said matter of factly.
At the mention the large black and purple spider skittered out again from where it was hidding and skittered over towards Valerian like a puppy looking for attention. Valerian was rather preoccupied either didn't see it or paid the spider no mind as it ran up to Scare's leg and started to skitter around her in a circle.

"It is odd." Endorphin fingered a canine tooth gingerly. He was rather fond of his teeth, but he was pretty sure the fairy was bluffing. "So many species. Strange we all came here. Very strange." He inhaled suspiciously, trying to pinpoint the culprit.

Scare reached down and scooped the adorable little arachnid up. She pet it's soft head lightly with a pinky finger, and continued listening to the conversation, occasionally emitting a curious "Fssssssssssss"-ing noise, before joining in. "But of course! So many different species meeting eachother in the woods around a fire by what may seem happenstance..." she perked up, and showed her teeth in a grin. "The makin's of an excellent story!" and then proceeded to internally rant on about stuff such as what really lies over the rainbow, and why people eat all natural foods if most animals generally die of natural causes.

Endorphin gurmbled and look away. His voice, when he spoke, was far too quite for any but those closest to him to hear. It was different - smooth and dreamy, far more suitable for his appearance than his usual coarse manner with words. "The sentiment is appreciated, but I fear I do not care for stories with the same enthusiasm as our strange young friend with the needle-filled grin..."

Scare appeared taken aback. "But... Stories! They're the essense of all existance! Without stories our lives would be... They would be... Them's would be simple, blobby things without aim!" She almost dropped the spider, but caught it before it fell to the ground. Someone who didn't believe in stories. She had thought she would never meet the like...

A little shudder went through Dorphin, then he turned around and tilted his head at Scare in a manner that betrayed great confusion. Had that comment been directed at him? "You are a strange creature. I have said nothing." His voice was back to its normal, harsh tones. The curious thing was, he didn't appear to be lying. Either he hadn't realized he'd spoken, or he was a very good acter.

Dorphin definately wasn't lying...Oooh! Multiple personallity disorder! ...Plot device! Dare she tell him what had just happened? Of course! "Well, I said this has the makin's of an excellent story, and you said, and I quote-" here, she appeared to prodd something in the air, and an instant replay of what you Dorphin said earlier seems to pop out of the air. "See?"

Endorphin gave a jolt as if he recognized that smooth, articulate version of his voice...
He had recognized it! It was the same voice that had whispered strange human words into his ear that long night when he had lain in a fever, moaning as the magic changed his body and mind...
He placed a hand on the bridge of his nose, about to rub his eyes until he remembered the empty sockets that he had no intention of reveiling. Instead he spoke. "That... It means nothing."

Aislinn looked up from the book she had taken out of her bag and grinned at Zolah. "I just came out of curiosity. And I wanted some fish." she added. While her appetite was sated, her curiosity wasn't.

OOC: Keep in mind that Rolf is paranoid and tends to be hard on himself.
Rolf sat down and began to talk to everyone.
"I know why your all here, Its my fault. I found a rune washed up in the river recently and began to experiment on it. Eventually a voice came from the rune. It asked me to inscribe a single-word wish onto the rune itself. My body you see, has been stolen and replaced by the one you see before you. I feel life is meaningless if I do not know what my true life is. So I simply inscribed "help" onto the rune. I think it brought you here to help me, but I don't wish for any of you to be harmed. You aren't expected to help my selfish cause."

Well, Since I have been at rest for a longer time it would be entertaining with some adventure. Do yu know who took your bosy? and... what does it look like, any specific cause they would want it?

Rolf replied
"I'm sorry but I don't know who stole it or why, but I do know where he or she would most likely be. I can sort of sense it."

Endorphin looked up with the first real interest he had displayed in something that wasn't edible. "Someone stole your body?" He leaned in towards Rolf, ignoring all laws of personal space, to get a good sniff. Then sneezed. "Ugh. You smell like human stuff." He sat back.
The story sounded familiar. After all, he too was in a strange body. However, he didn't think he had stolen someone else's. It felt like his, just changed by powerful magic. "Stupid thing to steal."

"Maybe he was a stupid theif." Valerian said.
The spider was once more quite content in Scare's care and nessled in comfortably despite the early near dropping.
OOC: You can have the spider scare if you want. You seem to like it more then Valerian does.

An eyebrow raised visably over his dark glasses. He and Valerian.... in agreement with something? Now that was a trifle unexpected.

OOC. Yay! Indeed she does. Scare adores animals of all denominations. Scare pondered on for a moment or two, and sat down lightly on a pile of leaves that had conveniantly placed themselves about her feet. A stolen body? Perhaps... Indeed! Yes! But of course! A brilliant title for a story... "The Stolen Body".

Dorphin knew what he had to say. "Someone must have stolen my mind" he snarled softly before nodding curtly towards Rolf. "In this case... I will help you." He scowled around at the assembled characters, his nostrals flaring defiantly. "Treat me as a monster, if you must. If I am treated as an animal.... measures will be taken." His piece being said, he turned back to the food (despite having already made a sizable dent in the feast singlehandedly).

" As zolah started to grow more confident by these creatures she took a seat near a tree and rested her head against it. "
- It is problebly a piece of cake to get that body back.. and if it isnt i can make a new one for you...
" she yawned and looked at the others "

"I really don't know much about this. I really only know where to look. I don't remember what my body looked like, but I have the memory of the last second before it was stolen."
Rolf reluctently took a muffin from the table a took a bite.

"Sounds like a trap." Valerian said matter-of-factly, Valerian didn't know if it actually sounded like a trap or not but it had certainly felt good saying so and his mind quickly worked to rationalize the impulsive statement. "If this guy stole your body why did he leave you with a new one, why not kill you, and if he has your body and you can sense that well then maybe he can sense this body, and maybe he hoped you would bring help so that he can ambush us and steal our bodies too and sell them on the black market (I'd be a pleasure slave obviously), and then give us ugly weak bodies with no memory to repeat the process, or maybe he didn't steal your body he stole your mind and/or he is just messed with your mind enough to make you think your body has been stolen, or maybe you are actually an artificial construct....." at this point Valerian had to pause for breath and in that moment was distracted and lost his train of thought.
Valerian blinked twice then fluttered behind scare again. “Pssst I think he wants your body.”

“Or his body could have been stolen as part of a nefarious plot of a group of evil mystics to summon an ancient demon from a distant plane to our world to wreak havoc upon all life as we know it.” Aislinn said dryly, “But we’re never going to find out just sitting around and worrying. Count me in, Rolf. This sounds too fun to pass up.”

Endorphin stretched out and snorted. People were so strange, thinking up these crazy plots. The world was simple, why did they have to complicate it? There was something missing, and he was going to be part of the hunt. He wasn't sure if he could call it 'fun,' but he was good at hunting and had an unusual attraction towards this mottley group.

"The Stolen Body?" Scare beamed. "Count me in!" she then proceeded to mutter on about perhaps needing a little back story on the characters, and on whether there was going to be any tragedy, comedy or romance in the story to unfold... And then decided she would let things carry on with their own buisness.
