[glow=purple,2,300]Dovie watched Aylen with intrigue as she waited for any sign of her special kingfisher. It was, of course, dwarfed immensly by the owls, and very difficult to spot unless.. "Ah-ha, there you are, my pretty birdie." Dovie's eyes scrunched up as she gave a very large smile. Her kingfisher landed on her shoulder and carried a very, very small note. Then again, her family didn't write very long letters, and they didn't have large handwriting. Dovie's kingfisher whistled as it twittered about her plate, picking at the toast she'd just barely had a bite of. "Ah well, thank you too, silly bird." Dovie tapped its beak, making it nip at her fingers. "Oh, hush now, no need to peck at me." Dovie rolled her eyes and slowly unrolled her note, placing the dark burgundy ribbon to the side. She read that her Austrian Shephard Kacey was going to arrive at the school within the next day or two, and her smile grew large as she saw a recent picture of Kacey chewing at the pants leg of her brother's favorite pair of jeans. She gave a short laugh and nibbled on her pear before looking up at Rune and Aylen, wondering what kind of mail they got, and hoping it was all good. [/glow]

Apparently, Mercury had no reason to be in the Great Hall other than to be a nuisance. He didn't have a note of any sort. "Hey, if don't have anything to give me, you don't need those sausages!" He grabbed at them, with no avail.

Rune looked up and spotted her barn owl,Herbert.The bird landed on the table,nearly missing Rune's plate.He had a small note attached to her leg. "Let's see,what have you got for me?"She asked and gave a piece of toast to the bird.While the owl began eating Rune took her nite from Herbert and read it. Her cousin,Karin wrote to her from Milan.She wrote about how happy she is there and sent a beautiful little drawing of Rune. The Rune looked at Aylen's haw. "Nice bird!It must be interesting raising hawks.And as for wolfs,well some say that the founder of my family was a lycan,Bardo Wolf. Hey,nice bird you got Dovie!What is it exactly?I'v never seen such!"she said.

[glow=purple,2,300]Dovie glanced up at Rune and smiled. "It's called a Kingfisher, and they're native to the States. Beautiful birds, really, especially when they're diving for fish." she smiled and ruffled the feathers under its neck slightly before looking back up. "Beautiful Hawk you have there, Aylen... what kind is it?" Dovie chuckled a little as she watched Aylen try several times to get his sausage links back for himself, but failed. She slid her plate towards him. "Here, haven't even touched the sausage. Guess I'm just not very hungry today." Dovie smiled and pet the soft feathers of her kingfisher's head as she listened to its sweet song.[/glow]

Aylen took one last swipe at Mercury, overbalanced, and fell face firt into a plate of hash browns. "Plck," Aylen spluttered. "Stupid merlin." Mercury hopped up and down happily as he finished the sausages off. He wiped the last of the potatoes off his face. "That would be my merlin, Mercury," Aylen grumbled. Then Dovie slid her plate over to him. "Really? I love sausages. Unfortunatey, so does he." He pointed at Mercury preening himself.

"Are you OK?"Rune asked Aylen after he felt into the bowl of food. "Here wipe your face!"she gave him her napkin.

Aylen had cleaned of his face already, but he accepted the napkin anyway. "thanks," he said, and then threw the napkin at the bird. Mercury hopped around in agitation as his vision was suddenly impaired by the thick cloth. " He squawked grumpily as Aylen caught him. "Gotcha! Thanks again, Rune."

[glow=purple,2,300]Dovie chuckled happily at Aylen's antics. "Smooth, real smooth...And yes, you may certainly have the rest of sausage links on my plate..I honestly don't like 'em, blech." Dovie made a face, but smiled immediately afterwards in her usual joking manner.[/glow]#nosmileys

"Sure, you can pet him," Aylen said as removed the cloth from a very ruffled bird. "He's a little grumpy right now." He held him out on his arm. "And thanks for the extra sausages, Dovie." "Squawk," Mercury protested.

"My,my,arent you a nice bird Mercury?Gosh,his feathers are so soft.He looks smart.Do you use him for hunting too?"Rune asked. Then she turned to Dovie. "So you don't like sousages?Then what are your favorite foods?Mine is pizza."Rune said.

[glow=purple,2,300]"Certainly!" Dovie spoke to Aylen, then to Rune. "And no, I don't really like sausage much." she paused for a moment as Rune spoke again. "Ah, pizza's good, pizza is very good... My favorite food though..." She paused to think on it. "I know this sounds way strange, but corn. I loooooooooove Indian Corn, mm..red, yellow, white, it's delicious food! And we use it to make all sorts of things! Corn soup, corn meal, corn flour for frybread. My favorite meal is something along the lines of corn soup with a little deer meat in it, broiled Buffalo brisket with some buffalo hump meat on the side, and some type of tea, maybe hanging moss tea, I dunno..." Dovie's eyes grew glassy for a few moments, imagining the meal that was her last dinner at home before coming here. "I know I'm strange, but it really is wonderful food ^^;; "[/glow]

"Hunting?" Aylen asked. "I don't do much hunting. But Mercury can hunt for himself." Aylen coughed loudly at this, but the hawk took no notice. His eyes were half closed from being petting and made a type of purring sound as Rune stroked him.

"I don't think Mercury wants to hear you Aylen!"Rune giggled a bit. "He's just like my cat,Freya.You see,if she doesn't want to hear what you're saying then she doesn't listen to you.I think Mercury's just like that."She said.
