Something very unusual this afternoon, an Ashen Breeder walked right into the main lobby. Most seems to be very cautious of the creature as it stands there, idly rubbing on one of its breasts as it looks around. It makes some churping noises as its pink eyes roam about the room. The light rain outside has made the poor creature quite wet, and it shivers from time to time as it continues to gaze at the people about.
When the creature stepped through the doors, Max was seated at a table, mulling something over with slow sips from a glass of soft drink. The rather tame choice of beverage rather spoiled the image, really, of the male 'drinking his sorrows away', as it were. But as the Ashen wanders through the doors, he can't help but watch... Each momentary shiver crossing its body making him grow more concerned. It... Seemed docile enough. And the guards had let it through, so it surely wasn't any danger... And reaching into his pack, the raccoon pulls out a dry towel, rising from his seat and stepping over toward the poor thing... Seemingly intent on helping it dry off, at least, and become a little further shielded from the cold.
Outside, the rain seemed to pick up for a couple of moments. A gust of wind opens the front doors wide as wind seems to be blowing directily into the room, but yet not blowing anything over. The doors close and the wind start to pull together. The silloette of a person seems to be incased in the condensing wind. The figure puts their feet on the ground. "Hi Max. Like my new form?" the figure says. Its vocie seems familiar yet different. Finally noticing the ashen, the winds decrease around the being, making it easier to see who it is. Taking a few careful steps, Alta slowly kneels and extends a hand with some food in it. "its ok. we won't hurt you." shi says to the ashen, obviously trying to comfort it.
Spade comes into the lobby, having just spoke to someone about how she might best eliminate promethean propaganda, when she stumbles across a strange sight. She eyes the breeder, her body tensing up as she prepares to flail on it. She chitters "Umm... so..." as she loosens up a bit, watching Max pull out a towel to help them out. Perhaps they're just one of those tamed ferals. She watches it carefully just in case, bracing herself slightly at the sight of wind. She doesn't seem sure how to act to a ashen breeder barging into the zephyr lobby.
In the Corner of the room looking at a map is a fluffy three headed dog, "I don't think we should be picking fight with the Survivalist just for their gear." The left head says, "But maybe we could just ask or offer to do a little work." The Right head says, "Hmmmmm I used to be a survivalist think they would let be me back in if I looked mildly human? I really want those sexy sexy weapons." All there hears turn the the ashen and she pads over to the creature as her heads shift into a single wolf head as she sniff her from a distance.
Sithra was standing in the corner of the lobby and drinking tea, when Ashen Breeder comes in. He spits up a little of tea as he sees the creature. His body tenses up, and his hand starts searching for a weapon, but sadly he leaved his beloved RPD at home today. But then he sees a raccoon pulls out a towel and comes closer to the Ashen. "Seems like it's another charmed feral, just like my Illya." he mumbles as his body loses it's tense a little.
From the downstairs passage rises the regular silver and semi-formally dressed silver lion. Finally reaching the peak of the steps, the relatively tall feline tucks at his seemingly recently cleaned suit and pants and starts to straighten them out with loving care. Satisfied with his appearance, Dio scans the lobby with a newly grown grin and a slight wag of his tail. Spotting a particularly crowded yet wet looking ashen, Dio simply had to come over and help. He strides his way over towards the growing crowd and smiles. "Awful day, isn't it? As a gentleman, your condition is something I simply can't ignore," the lion says with a bow. "Things should seem a little warmer in a few moments." With the use of thermal nanomagic, Dio concentrates and attempts to warm the area around him to help warm those affected by the rain.
The Ashen looks to Max as he brings a towel over to it, and as Max pats on it, it murrs and moans slightly, however it seems very of put by the sudden storm coming inside the room. It looks over to the creature which braught it in and chirps angerly for a while. It didn't come up to fight with a storm.... So it slinks against Maxwell, rubbing itself upon the raccoon, a bit more.. affectionate then he might like. It seems to ignore Spade and Kilsa's actions, listening with its drooped ears though as Spade stutters at it. When Dio walks up to, and starts to warm the room, it trills in a seemingly happy mannor, but continues to rub and nussle on Max.
Maxwell doesn't quite expect the storm to roll into the building itself, his body jolting a bit was the wind swirls around in a seemingly confined space, and he doesn't seem too pertrubed as the creature comes in closer toward him, rationalizing it as a rather understandable response to the very essence of the storm raging about outside coming into the building. However, as it rubs and nuzzles at him he can't help but flush a bit... Nonetherless continuing the task he had set out to do. Dry the poor thing off. As others come in still, he nods to each in turn, before returning to patting and rubbing on the creature with the towel, trying to cleanse it of the rain that coated its body, and... Trying not to be too invasive about it.
Upon seeing the Ashen Breeder move away from hir, Alta almost seems shocked. Then shi remembers hir current form and smiles. The winds around hir die down as much as pssoible as a purple fog surrounds hir. When the fog clears, the image of a purple-tinted human is standing where the wind was. Shiu smiles and waves to everybody in the room. "Hello Max and Spade." Shi loks to the others in the room and gives a simple greeting. "Sorry if I frightened you guys. My name is Alta." The second part is said mostly to the ones shi doesn't know. Hir voice has not changed since shi last spoke, and if one were to get close enough to hir they would still feel hir winds. But for now, hir apperance looks human, abit a purple one. Shi loks back to the Ashen, and gently rolls an apple towards it. "I think it likes you Max." Alta jests at the coon.
Spade shakes her head the the unneeded and offputting display, but waves to Alta. "Hello there... so... are you going to find out what it wants?" she chitters, gettinig directly to theh point. She watches the being get chummy with Maxwell, recoil from the others and just listen to her, and decides to move slightly closer. "So why is it here? What has made the sewers so much more uninviting that it would venture up here?" she ponders aloud, her plated hide clicking as she moves across the floor towards the strange ashen.
Kilsa steps back finally deciding to give the creature a little space as she retreat to her corner and began to shift her body again. She kept an ear out to the group but back in her hand is the map from eariler as she speak to the group. She smiles at spade comment, "Shi isn't attacking us, She doesn't seem to be violent so just let her walk around keep an eye on here. Lets be honest any one of us in this room could shatter her spine so why not see if letting her relax improves overall relations with the Ashen. I'm doing my part.." The now Ashen matriach Kilsa chuckles.
Sithra comes a little bit closer to crowd to get a better view. As he sees Ashen rubbing against raccoon he says, "That would be..." then he sees someone shifting into a Ashen Matriarch and hears their words, "...very intresting. He smiles and takes a few steps back so the crowd wouldn't notice him, but then he feels someone pulling his coat. He turns and sees a small felinoid girl. "Hey, Sith what's going on in here? Why that thing is here and why everyone is staring at it?", says girl with a really loud voice.
Dio looks at the cute scene between the raccoon and ashen and chuckles lightly. It's been quite awhile since the lion's had a chance to have a bit of casual social interaction. "You make quite a cute pair if you don't mind me saying." Dio's attention was then caught by an interesting fog. "Hello ma'am," he says with a wave towards Alta, "Lovely to meet you. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Dio. I see you have some of the same... skills as me." Being an illusionist himself, Dio saw right through Alta's trick. He then shifts his glance towards Spade. "And a hello to you too, fellow co-worker. I'd say this is a good time as any to start asking questions, but it does seem quite docile." Crouching down a little, Dio hopes that he can create the least intimidating persona a lion possibly could. Although, people usually seemed to find a gentleman lion with a suit not all that intimidating at first anyways. With a soft and smooth tone, Dio begins to talk to the feral seeming ashen. "I suppose my first question would be, can you talk or communicate in some way? Besides drying off and escaping the rain, are you in any trouble or require assistance? I'd be more than happy to help."
The doors slide open to let yet another into the strangely packed lobby, what looks like a curvy husky with an umbrella over... his head. It is indeed male, if the lack of breasts and straining bulge in his pants were any indication. Shivering in his jacket, the rare male husky pulls his umbrella tight against itself, shaking it off outside before he wraps it up and moves further inside. Confined to a slight waddle, he moves further into the room before glancing around, finding just the one he was looking for. "A-ahh, Max..." he calls casually over to the raccoon, trailing off at the sight of the ashen cuddling up to him. His head tilting for a moment, he slowly moves towards them, carrying the dripping umbrella with him.
Alta but how close to me? becasue within a few feet of me you would feel the wind from me since i hid my apperance. more than that and you wouldn't feel my wind.
The shivering creature seems very comforted by Max's continued attempts to dry it off, as well as the gental warmth coming from the lion. It nuzzles against the raccoon a bit more, dripping tits likely cuasing patches of mosture upon his clothes. It seems to relax more as Alta's winds die down and she takes a less threatening form. It looks over to Sithra as he moves about and another creature joins in beside him. She trills a bit at Spade when he talks about finding out what it wants, and nuzzles against Max a bit more. However, its focus changes quickly when Kilsa becomes a Matriarch. The creature churps and trills very happily, taking a hold of Max's hand and trying to bring him over to Kilsa. Weither he goes with it or not, the creature does walk over to Kilsa, starting to study the map along with her for a while.
Maxwell tries to continue on in the task, leaving the Ashen nice and dry, at least of the rain, but as Nyo's call causes his attention to alter, the creature suddenly clutches at a paw, tugging him away towards... Wait, another Ashen? When did this happen!? Nonetherless, he takes a moment, a small motion telling the creature to give him a second, if indeed it understood it, before he turns to the husky. "Hey there, Nyo...", he greets, offering a small smile. "This poor thing stumbled in from the rain... I'm just offering it some help." That said, he does start walking after the creature, seemingly intent on making sure it remains alright during its stay, but a paw motions the canine to follow, if he so wished.
Alta nods to Dio with a smile. Shi goes to try and give Nyo a welcoming handshake but decides against it. Seeing Max strongly encouraged to follow the Ashen towards Kilsa, Alta chuckles a little bit. "Hey Max, Kilsa, see if it is hurt or hungry. I can help with both of those." shi says as the purple version of hir goes near Spade, but hir true self staying where it is. Hir fog turns to Spade and Pats her on the shoulder. "Never a dull day in fairhaven huh?" Shi sighs when a girl comes in and talks in a loud voice to Sithra. "We are all right here. no need to shout." the psuedo-woman says.
Spade looks to the incoming Nyo and offers them a wave, before turning her attention to the now matriach Kilsa. She notes the immediate interest the ashen provides her, using this time to approach them slowly, showing her interst in the map. "I never said we should cause them harm or throw her out, just that we should address her immediate concerns." she chitters and gently taps the ashen on the back. "Are you okay? Did you come up here because you're injured, or someone is in trouble?" she says, trying to wrap her head around their presence.
The now Ashen Matriarch Kilsa smiles and reaches down to gently stroke the head of the smaller Ashen breeder. Kilsa reaches into her bag and pulls out a bag of jelly beans, She opens the bad and give her a few placing them near her nose before giving her the back. Kilsa contines to pet and rub the creature looking her over, "She doesn't seem hurt and she seem kinda cute." She lets the smaller creature play with her map and jelly beans while closing her bag.
Sithra looks at girl that appeared behind him so suddenly. "Illya, what are you doing here?!" says he quietly, "And don't be so loud, everyone heard you.". Girl grins and says with quiet voice too, "Staying at home for a whole day is boring. And I've prepared some food for you so go home already.". Sithra covers his face with a paw, and says, "You sound just like my mom..." he sighs, "I'll be home a bit later, so you go ahead.". Girl sighs and leaves with a sad expression on her face. As she leaves Sithra mumbles, "That girl..." then he turns to crowd and says, "Sorry for that people." he comes closer, "Any clues of whats it doing in here?".
It would appear that the lion's questions have been more or less ignored by the rain-touched ashen. Dio only shrugs at the idea, as he didn't really expect much of an answer from it anyways. However, he couldn't shake the feeling that this ashen came up to the lobby for an important reason. With soft footsteps, Dio follows after the ashen and stands in a new position not too far away from the group growing around Kilsa. "It is rather cute, isn't it," murmurs the large lion. Dio nods at Spade after shi asks hir questions. "I'm interested in why this Ashen has strolled in here. I suppose it doesn't need a reason, but I still find it a bit strange." Dio then points to the map. "I wonder if it's actually reading or just enjoying the pictures. Perhaps it could write as well?" The lion crosses his arms and thinks for a bit. "How about this... If you're in need of any assistance, simply nod your head and we'll do our best to help you."
