One EGG-cellent Party! (Easter Event Bonding!)

Raeneth would have found the cymbals, but in her state, she was too intrigued by the fact that there was an egg in her hands to actually investigate. Instead, her drunk fingers released the item. She scrambled to catch the egg, but it fell to slam against the edge of the table instead.

"Uh oh."

Cain

Cain suppose he shouldn't have been too surprised that an egg that was a sort of puzzle would lead rise to two sphinxes. What he was more surprised at was that these were sphinxes he had seen before. Shaking his head, he suppose Layton and Sycamore was more than ready to settle down. And they chose him.

Well. At least they weren't canines.

Mildred

At this point, Mildred had decided she hated water. First Kemori. Now this...Whatever the heck it was. Wiping her hair back, she would apologize to those that got wet before turning her attention to the water cat shark thing. "Well, Shale. No one ever said you didn't make an entrance."

Tidesweep

Tide nearly jumped out of her skin when Goose appeared, but she would welcome the coastal with open arms. She had no secrets to hide after all and embarrassment usually wasn't a thing she was too worried about anyway.


Jeremi

Jeremi wasn't going to lie. After the shower from Mildred's new companion, the last thing he expected was a gryphon to be standing in front of him. But he wasn't about to turn Richard away. Not by a long shot.

Fredericke

Fredericke would let out a startled squeal at the sudden appearance of an eyeball. Bringing the telescope down, she looked Nomura over carefully before grinning. "Glad you think so. And as for interesting..." She rocked back and forth on her heels, hands going behind her back. "We can totally find that out later."

Frisk
The cream egg would be surprisingly simple to open, the 'shell' feeling loose and segmented so all it took was some pushing and jiggling to get it open.
Within was a small slip of paper that simply read: Look across the table.

And across the table where there hadn't been anyone before was a flash of light and glimmers that was visible for the merest second before they dashed across and through their chest painlessly. And appeared on the other side in her final form.

Hmm, yes. I can learn a lot with you, I feel.

Bond! Knowledge is Eternal Scholar, Thalalia to Frisk!


Dominic
The Stained Glass egg was probably the only egg that hinted at having something within visually even before it was opened, as upon close inspection Dominic would see a few small segments that were translucent. But what lay within would change with ever glimpse. Typical IF!

One panel would actually be hinged, pivoting open and letting a tiny pair of shiny spheres fall into his hands. Perhaps those with more understanding of oriental cultures like a certain sadly absent Kitsune would identify them as meditation spheres, the kind that chimed soothingly as they were rotated against one another in the palm. And it would only take a couple of passes before they attracted attention...and a fluffy, feathered-winged feline with a very colorful color scheme hopped daintily into his lap.

You look like you need some mothering, she purred, and hey weren't there studies and stuff about cats in the lap being comforting?

Bond! Mother of the Stars Female Nebula to Dominic!


Nec
The glitter egg would be just as one might expect a glitter egg to be, that is transferring glitter to Nec's fingers and anything else that happened to touch it. All part of the fun right?

Nec may have intended a gentle crack on the table, but what would happen instead could probably be blamed on the IF: the egg exploded into a detonation of glitter that would be temporarily blinding... and clinging, turning the Changeling into a shimmering version of himself. Kemori certainly would be laughing himself sick had he been present.

Was that really necessary? a voice all-but snarled, a frustrated, put-out Sharpblade trying to clean glitter from his face. Well, I suppose it could have been far worse. Nec would be scrutinized before the reptile would nod decisively even as a Rune mark such as carried by several other residents would form itself on the Changeling's body. I think we might just see eye to eye.

Bond! For my Kin, I'll Take Any Road Katana Sharpblade to Necthan!

((Also, you can choose the location of the Rune mark.))

Telmaril
It was a good thing that Telmaril was careful when he picked up the rainbow egg as it would feel far less tangible than it appeared. In fact, the more he handled it the less tangible it would be, until it simply faded away into nothingness leaving a vague clean sensation.

Or perhaps that was the presence of the light that flew through Telmaril from behind and formed in front of him into a new friend!

Bond! Find the Cure, Save the World Scholar to Telmaril!
((Also, I know this was fairly non-descriptive. The description I have for him was vague and slightly incomplete, so either I can complete it or you may!))


Dust
Thankfully for Dust the half gold-half red egg would be much simpler to open this time around, just a little bit of pressure along the division between the two colors and it opened with a soft pop!

Inside would be a piece of paper that, when pulled out and further inspected, would be an Arcane Script! Nice!


Jess
The green egg would faintly have a scent like the ocean though it would feel like a normal egg otherwise. Trying to open it, the shell would 'peel' away in a single piece, leaving a single piece base of shell in her palm. And of all things a necklace would be there, one of simple cord and Zaithand teeth. Such as they commonly gave to their Bondeds as gifts.

Hmm, that might explain the Zaithand that was suddenly at her side, perhaps.

You will be a fine addition to my Cove, she proclaimed, just as I hope I will be a good addition to your family.

Bond! The Majestic Crashing Waves Ocean Queen Zaithand to Jess!


Rune
The silver egg gleamed in the light, almost enough to make an onlooker believe that a silversmith had a hand in its creation instead of a chicken and a painter. A little examination revealed that the egg twisted open in almost a stair-step manner, first the top then a segment below and a segment below that and so forth until it was completely opened to the bottom segment.

And inside the base (yes, it shouldn't technically be sitting there because of the twist opening but IF) was a Red Mushroom! Better than a raw yolk, right?


Ixeh
Much as the appearance suggested, to open the ribbon-wrapped egg would involve Ixeh unwinding all the ribbons that were twined and layered upon it. She would amass a small pile of ribbons by the time the last one came away, and the egg would actually not be an egg, but a single Zaithand tooth on a hemp bracelet.

Such as was within the mouth of the grinning Zaithand who was watching her with a keen eye.

I'm glad you got through that ribbon so fast; it was very hard to wait!

Bond! The Wild Typhoon Estuary Male Zaithand to Ixeh!


Retsom
The string-wrapped egg would end up being wrapped in a single very, very long piece of string that shifted colors back and forth as it was unwound. At one point the egg spun almost like a top in his hand! Finally the end of the string was found attached to the top of the egg, and with a gentle tug the egg split and opened like the petals of a flower.

Nothing. Hmm...

The the string was given a gentle tugging on the trailing end of the string. Looking down, Retsom would see an ebony feline with feathered wings, barely more than a kitten, batting at it. Though it wouldn't be in play per say, as the kitten would look up at him with one of the cookies balanced on its other paw quite carefully.

You look hungry. Would you like this?

Bond! I Will Bleed My All Void to Retsom!


((Creatures to be PM'd shortly!))

The face Nec had made at the glitter sticking to his fingers (he should've expected that) was nothing against the face he made after the explosion of the stuff! Anyone laughing would likely get a handful of glitter thrown at them, there were more than enough, but Nec was soon distracted by the reptile half-snarling behind him.

Turning to look at the creature, recognizing it as the Sharpblade it was, the changeling looked him up and down in return. "I'm not the one who had to make an entrance like that. But if it was the IF I advise you to get use to it." Brushing himself off as well as he could (which didn't amount to much, given glitter's nature), Nec felt a tingling on the front of his left shoulder. Hm. Weird but not worrying, so eh. "Mind if I call you Mirum?"

Settling back, he didn't move to pick up another egg, but decided to stick around to catch up with those he knew, and get to know his new friends as well.

Frisk

The white egg rolled in its wobbly way across the table, and as it did so it seemed to unroll itself like a paper towel roll when you drop it down an incline! By the time it reached Frisk it had completely unraveled itself a feather lay on the last fragment. It fluttered in a breeze, then blew away...

...to smack into the face of a Gryphon standing nearby. He blew it away with a puff.

I've traveled quite far, he said to them, and I think together we will travel even farther.

Bond! Ferocious Anger Belongs to Beasts Order of Squires Male to Frisk!

****************

Dominic

The red egg would feel a bit... sandy? to the touch, though visibly there wouldn't be anything to it. Opening it would take a bit of codebreaking, or perhaps lockpicking, as squeezing the sides would reveal a seam. But not one that opened like a typical plastic egg that the zombie might be more familiar with. Rather this would be more like a medicine bottle with an addition: Squeeze, twist this way until it clicked, twist another way until it clicked, then back again for a final click, then POP! It opened!

A small fountain of warm water was the reward like the spray from a whale, then (try to figure the logistics of this out at your own risk!) a creature 'jumped' out from the egg to land lightly on paws before Dominic; a Zaithand. He favored the other with a serene smile, showing all those lovely teeth of theirs.

I bet some people are afraid of you, he murmured in a smooth voice, but I don't see why that should be. You're just you, and that's all there is to it. You seem perfectly nice to me.

Bond! Ocean of Glass Tributary Male Zaithand to Dominic!

******************

Jess

Surrounded by friends, Jess would find that the Orange egg was quite a treat - literally! The orange coloration would actually be a foil wrapper for a chocolate-orange egg, hollow inside by the feel and sound of it. Inside would be a shimmering Seasonal Star with a Pink Springtime Flower on it, perfect for a Bonded who might like a springtime makeover!

((I can make the design on a creature you desire if you want, or this can be saved as any mutation item.)

******************

Telmaril

Barely had the red-blue striped egg touched the healer's hand than it leapt up and straight out of it again, landing on the ground with a CRACK that shattered it in a small explosion of dust that was momentarily blinding. When Temlaril could see again, a Gryphon would be standing there, shaking his wings out to resettle the feathers.

Ah! she cried, almost a hawk-like screech of triumph, about TIME I was able to get out of there! She looked around, finding Telmaril quickly and grinned as much as a half-avian could. Yeah, I've been looking for someone like you! Someone who might be able to patch me up after a good scrap that is. Think you can handle it, m'lord?

Bond! Rage Can Sunder Mountains Order of the Blade Female to Telmaril!

**************

Dust

The yellow egg would be smooth and feel a little heavy in Dust's hand, yet impart a sensation of calm and confidence. The Guardian would feel something strange - a tingle on some part of his anatomy that now sported a rune mark in silver-blue, then when he turned back and Egg would be gone, just vanished.

And standing before him would be a regal Gryphon with the bearing of a knight, a Champion, in his every atom.

You know, he said quietly, voice further echoing the bearing the eyes revealed. You understand, personally, what it is to fight, to give everything for others regardless of the cost to yourself. Those who threaten what we hold dear will regret even considering it.

Bond! A Courageous Champion who Gives his All Male Honor Gryphon to Dust!

**************

And that's a wrap everyone! Thank you for participating in my little Event, and I hope everyone had fun. Remember, you will need to Name-Claim those that need it and to check with the Database if you're not sure if a species has any Naming conventions.

Until next EVENT! (Impending, lol! Look for it around July!)
