[ Henry had never seen birds quite like this, and they resembled birds but also horses; honestly they were the cutest and coolest creatures he'd seen in a very long time, second only to short little pug-faced hooded creatures from a space-opera fantasy movie series that he could not for the life of himself remember the name to. And there were many different colours too, the sort of colours that were almost like a rainbow.

He quite liked that.

The blue ones were perhaps the ones that fascinated him the most. He came across them as he was heading to one of the swimming areas to make sure that he was maintaining some semblance of a fitness regime-- at his approach they flapped their wings in a way that was 'somewhat' wary? He dipped his toes in the water and decided to give them a wide berth. They resumed their very important blue chocobo routine and he resumed his though a few after having observed him for the space of a half hour was attempting to drift by closer.

Maybe he resembled a yellow chocobo with the way that his blonde hair was sticking up a'la Cloud. Soon they were gliding through the waters and floating alongside Prince Henry; he was not disappointed at all, they were actually pretty pleasant and relaxing to be around. And it was almost like they understood each other, that strange sort of companionship that two introverts could mutually agree upon. There was the sound of running and then Henry attempted to warn whoever by straightening up in the waters and calling out ] Do not scare the Blue Birds, it took me forever to come to a peace with them.

[ Oh, he hope he called out in time-- the birds have already flapped their wings in a gesture meant as part warning and part retreat. ]

As far as the eye could see there were gift boxes like how one saw in moves; boxes that were big-- some were small, some were even gift bags with bright colourful bows festooning down from the pinched top. It was like Christmas, and as he glanced around he could see that there were many people were out and about searching for gifts. There was someone a distance away who took the top off of a waist high gift box to lean in and tug out a potted plant, another had found a bag of M&Ms that seemed to be have been rebranded for this world.

He had never really had a whole lot of excitement for holidays; his father had made it enjoyable and so when he had passed away-- the entire thought of them had been something to get through as opposed to an enjoyable time with family. It was enough that him and Bea had retreated to the kitchens to have a cheese toastie feast. Next to them, there were some others who were assiduously searching. ]

Would you care for a partner in the hunt?

Hello everyone, I am Nia (zauberdecke) and I'm ready to get into the heart of Etraya! This Prince is friendly but definitely an introvert, which is me going "please harass him in the best possible way". He is willing to help people with anything, including hunt for their special treasures and/or attempting to make friends with the local chocobos.

(While he is not a big FF person, I am)

Feel free to choose one of the above prompts or toss me something new, I am just excited to be here! I also kept the prompts to a small margin because I want to tag out some interesting people as well!
