This was nothing like the previous parties her friends had thrown her. Or rather... closer friends Tirry being the only one left in this little group before it diminished after most of them graduated. Practically her family. Calli remembered the nights visiting relatives with them and being hunkered down in log cabins somewhere in the mountains before exploring the town and their cafes, then being sung under heavy quilts for the night doing vodka shots and telling dumb stories while laughing loudly.

Calli let out a quiet sigh before a cup filled with spiced rum and fruit punch enticed her.

“I miss ‘em too girly,” Tirux spoke softly or as softly as an ogre could. Calli gave him a weak smile before downing her beverage.

“I...thanks Tirry. I mean it. Doing this for me--”

She didn’t finish her sentence before Tirry abruptly started greeting some guests that came trickling in. The first few Calli had never seen nor recognize...or did she? There was a wolf girl (Luperca) she had seen a while ago...part of Axel’s pack. She looked over at them briefly accompanied by another fairy tale who she was sure she had never seen before (Rosalind).

Calli watched them as the inspected the stage.

<span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">“Think we have our entertainment for the night,” Tirux mused watching them too. “They look like they want to <span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing…. <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">Calli cackled as he finished his sentence with an elaborate imitation of what he thought singing was.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">More new faces arrived and most of them were gravitating towards the snack table.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">Naturally <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">...Calli thought smirking.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">“ <span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">Hey-yo Calli.”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">Calli’s ears perked to full alert when she heard a familiar voice.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Scythe? Wow dude you actually came! Tirux this Scythe? That dude I told you about.”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Ha! Calli tells me you’re possibly the strongest dude in all of Ever After! I bet you must give her a serious run for her money when you two spar! Oh what was that she told me?” Tirux pondered. “That’s right! That you slammed her so hard into the ground there was a crater where she landed! HA! I wish I had been there. That must’ve been priceless! Drag the brat around a bit, eh?” <span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;line-height:1.38;white-space:pre-wrap;">Tirux’s eyes lit up warmly while he clapped a large clawed hand on Scythe’s shoulder.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Stupid! How much have you had to drink Tirry?” Calli looked flustered, rubbing the back of her neck giving Tirux a hard look.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">Tirux ruffled Calli’s hair again causing her bangs to fall wildly over her face. Subtly he was scoping Scythe out. He was <span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">handsome <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">. Sharp green eyes, a tall muscular figure and strong jaw… he was going to have to ask Calli more about him.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">Hopefully he wasn’t taken. ***

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“This for me?” Calli asked taking the bag from Scythe and looking curiously at it. From the sound of it there were a lot of bottles clinking together. “Thanks man. I really appreciate it.”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">She handed the gift to Tirux who was going to store it away somewhere safe before pulling Scythe into a tight hug and patting his back.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">Someone starting singing, that wolf girl <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">(Luperca). Calli internally grimaced at the music choice and she was sure Tirux did too.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">Then…

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“H-hi Calli…”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“I...hey Quinn…” Calli smiled bashfully at her.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">“ <span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">I… I g-got you something.”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Wha--you did?” Calli beamed at her and took the package from her dainty hands sensing that the weight was proving a bit much for her precious person.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Would y-you like to o-open it now or…?”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Oh...um that’s okay! I was just going to wait till things diminished a bit y’know?” Calli’s smile was huge and her fangs glinted in the strobe lighting. Then she felt in elbow into her ribcage and immediately knew who it was.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Soooo girly...is this her?”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">The girl’s trembling form, the way her eyes lit up when she regarded Calli, the coyote girl regarding her the same way like she was some precious treasure to behold… It told Tirux everything.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">Calli took a deep breath feeling somewhat elated herself having her girlfriend finally meet a childhood friend.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">“Quinn this is Tirry, er Tirux. Tirry this is Quinn.”

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;white-space:pre-wrap;line-height:1.38;">The girl was small. Smaller than Calli even with her frame shaking and the look of apprehension invading her otherwise honest wide set green eyes.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">And she was <span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">blonde <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="font-style:italic;font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">Always the blondes Calli...you’ve always liked your blondes… <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">Tirux thought smirking a little but he inspected the girl with his amber eyes were set ablaze by the multi-colored lights reflecting off of them.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">“Most just call me Tirry. I don’t prefer one over the other,” he gave a curt nod  at the tiny girl not feeling inclined to extend a massive paw for a handshake in fear of scaring her off. He mistook her speech impediment for intimidation. Tirux figured she found him opposing like most of the student populace did.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> <span style="font-weight:400;font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);white-space:pre-wrap;">'''((*** Yes Tirux is gay. Yes he finds Scythe attractive and wants Calli to hook him up. And Lupes voice seems pretty amazing))'''
