(OTA! Happy holidays! If you know Fin, Willy, Phouka, or Winter, feel free to assume they gave you an invite. If not, you can say your pup got an invite through a friend of a friend, someone who knows someone, ect. It IS invite over (no gate crashing pups please, Fin's a giver and would want everyone to feel included), but the pups hosting the party are pretty active and I believe they know almost everyone in the game. And the people they don't know surely know people who do. Even if you only met them once, you got an invite somehow! This gathering post is open all week, and beyond!)

"Ah, yes. I insisted we must have good wine. There is nothing sorrier than bad wine," he replied, shaking his head. His hair bounced as he moved it.

[whispersoflove]

"A sorry heart, I should think," Anael replied softly.

[willysilver]

"You are correct there. Which is why when I play on the street I always infuse my music with joy for the mortals. So long as they listen their worries are lighter," he replied. "I just adore the mortals. I adore living in this world."

[whispersoflove]

"Then we have that in common," Anael stated, and then smiled. "Well, not the living in it bit. But I do love this world, and the people in it." He had far too many duties in Heaven to be detached to Earth.

[willysilver]

"Do you take care of their needs when you can? I do, every chance I get. I always have. Most fae only trick and trap. And I will admit I will take advantage of a deal if someone makes a wish, but usually I do things because I like them," he confessed.

[whispersoflove]

"I try to help them, as much as I can," Anael answered, breathing right past that mention of deals, and taking advantage of them. Faes would be Faes, but this one, at least, seemed to care about mortals, or some of them, at least. He certainly loved Fin, in a beautiful, overwhelming way. "I don't like to see them hurt. I don't like to see anyone hurt."

[willysilver]

"We agree on that," he said with a nod. "They are quite special."

[whispersoflove]

"Everyone is," Anael answered honestly. His Love certainly did not end with men.

[willysilver]

"Seems we have quite a bit in common...but I do not think you and I are like the rest of our kind. Am I correct?" Will said. It seemed to him Anael was not cut from the same cloth as the angels of the cautionary tales of his youth.

[whispersoflove]

"I've known few Fae," Anael answered with a small smile, a slight joke about being unable to verify one half of the equation, "but most of my brethren do think me quite odd, yes." To put it nicely.

[willysilver]

"My family thinks the same of me, though odd may be the kindest word," Will laughed.

[whispersoflove]

Anael's smile stretched with real amusement, as Willy's words echoed his own thoughts. "Quite, yes. It makes the few to share my quirks all the more... precious," he settled on, eyes warm with his love for them.

[willysilver]

"There are two who are kin. Ah...the Phouka over there and...that is Winter," he said, pointing out the pair.

[whispersoflove]

Ah, the young pixie Anael had met at the ice rink. The angel had not known that fae considered pixie as family. It put a small smile on his lips, and looked back at Willy. "Yes, I've met Winter before."

[willysilver]

"He is very young," Will said, as if such a statement could explain everything about Winter. In many ways, it did. "He is my brother and he is learning. His childhood was stolen from him. He is making up for lost time."

[whispersoflove]

"How old is he?" Anael asked curiously, knowing very little about how long pixies might live, or how long their childhood might last. He only knew men to judge by.

[willysilver]

"Only thirty. Still a child to me," he said, hinting at his own age there.

[whispersoflove]

"Do you view all men as children, then?" Anael asked curiously.

[willysilver]

"No, men grow quickly, age and die. Not a luxury my kind has. We live for so very long. "

[whispersoflove]

"You view aging as a luxury?" Anael asked, slightly surprised and desirous to hear the Fae's reasons.

[willysilver]

"It is a luxury," Willy said. "To live as long as have, to have survived so many wars, the world can sometimes make me so weary. But these mortals with their short lives, they take in all they can. They love stronger, wish harder, delight in the smallest things. I envy that."

[whispersoflove]

"But we get to meet so many more of them," Anael answered, with a small smile. He had said 'meet', but he meant 'love', as often, in his case. "I hope I never grow weary of that."

[willysilver]

"This is true. And there are so many of them. And more and more every year," he replied with a smile.

[whispersoflove]

"It was - good to meet you, Willy," Anael stated honestly. He had not known whether that would be the case. "I ought to stop monopolising you." He was, after all, one of their hosts tonight, and Anael wanted to go and find Coby again.

[willysilver]

"Very good to meet you as well," he said, polite and quite formal. "Do enjoy the party."
