[Maybe someday Phoenix will be used to living life as a non-human; the way things have been going lately, it seems that's the direction the castle is pushing him in. After all, it's going on a week since he woke up and found himself turned into a bird.

Well, not just a bird--a large, deep blue phoenix, because the castle has a very stupid sense of humor which he does not appreciate at all.

He's fully aware that he's stuck in this ridiculous form, but since he can't talk or communicate with anyone and he really doesn't want anyone to find out about this nonsense, he's been keeping to himself as much as possible. Unfortunately this means he's now officially run out of the junk food he's been eating in his room, and the castle--of course--isn't granting his wishes for more.

With no other solution presenting itself, he's forced to soar through the halls of the castle--and that's just what he's doing this evening... flying and searching and hoping to find food somewhere.]


((Phoenix is on a phoenix loss. Feel free to bother the huge fiery blue bird. ;D))

[Oh good, more food! But before he digs into the cookies, he's going to figure out this "thank you" conundrum.



He spreads his wings slowly and stretches out his neck, letting out a powerful squawk!]

[doublethefun]

[there's a laugh]

I shall assume that thou art grateful. [no magical understanding of bird-speak here] Thou art very welcome.

[she quietly noms a cookie, wondering what she's going to do with this phoenix. Resident? Pet? Human?]

[He's hesitant to take more of her food, so he only pecks at one cookie. She's been kind enough to him already, and he doesn't want to take advantage of that--particularly since he's eaten the vast majority of her salad. Still, the cookie is gone with a few pecks from the large beak he's wielding. This body is going to take a lot of getting used to...



Well, one thing's for sure. He's going to have a completely renewed respect for all the sentient animals living here in the castle after this. He waddles over to Luna and gives her a pat on the back with a wing, convinced it must be incredibly difficult to be a pony here.]

[she blinks in surprise for a moment, and then gingerly wraps a foreleg around the bird in something of a hug. And it's really not that bad - not if you've got both oddly dextrous hooves and magical abilities.

Hmm. She sees how he's scarfing down that cookie.] Dost thou still hunger? We can head to the kitchen.

[He's not about to ask her for any more than she's already done, so he shakes his head 'no.' He's good with a salad and a cookie... bad enough she's going to have to find herself another salad thanks to him!]
