White Squirrel and a Hare

[Bark Snowfur]

((Sorry guys, been gone but I'm back and ready to post!))

Bark jumped up at the crack of the twig. He sheathed his beautiful blade and nodded at the new squirrel. The hedgehog got it right, I'm Bark Twigrunner and this is Verbane. And what were you doing in the tree? I heard a crash," He said, al the while eyeing the new squirrel.

"Rather, who knew it rained flippin' squirrels in this part of the wood wot wot." She went back to eating and held a scone out to the newcomer. "Best thing for fallin' out of a tree, havin' a blinkin' bite to eat." She knew if it had been her food would have done the trick to get her back up on her paws.

Darman laughed heartilly. "Hoho, that's a good 'un. Raining squirrels!" Dar quickly looked around. He spotted something. "Yes! I see some blackberries!" he exclaimed, moving with a speed that defied his bulk

Than the group herd a voice merrily singing through the forest, seemingly without a care in the world. "Forth let the all creatures roam! Tierra lierra lierra! Roam, roam, far from home! Tierra lierra lo! Let a blessing of good charm them! Let no wicked thing harm them! Tierra lierra lierra, lierra! Oh! Grass grow green before them, evil things abhor them! Food and butter! Sweets and honey! Let all these things be plenty! Tierra lierra lierra, lo!" Than the singing stopped as a cloaked figure carrying a walking stick came upon the group. Jacob Grandomir paused and said, "What's this? A large hedgehog, a regular squirrel, a white squirrel, and a hare? What are you lot doing out in this neck of the woods? But where are my manners? Alow me to introduce myself. I am Jacob Gradnomir, the Wanderer. And you all are, my fine fellows?"

"Corks, Darman ol' chap, don't look now but I do believe we're surrounded by blinking tree wallopers." She turned to Bark and winked at the young one. "So much for a quiet stroll in the woods eh? wot wot." She looked at the way her traveling companion looked at the pretty female and smiled.

[Kal Skirata]

Darman laughed. "We may be surrounded, but I wager that the two of us could break our way out of this circle." he said as he picked some blackberries. "Want some?" he asked Verbade, holding out a pawful.

[Scarlet]

"Hello!" Scarlet says to the newcomer "The names Scarlet Rose Songtree. Call me Scarlet if you want."

OOC: Sorry about the really short post.... I kinda got lost in all of your posts. Been gone for the new year for three days.

[Bark Snowfur]

Bark nodded at the cloaked figure. "Bark Twigrunner is me name. That 'ole scoffwalloper right their is Verbane and the large beast is Darman," Bark nodded at Verbane and Darmon who were ravenously eating the blackberries. "Hey, save some for me, savages!"

[Kal Skirata]

((It's Darman.))

"Oho, savages, is it! Well, nobody calls me a savage! Here!" he said as he held out a double pawful of berries, which was quite a lot, considering the size of his paws. "Have some berries, O Lord Bark!" Darman laughed.

[Bark Snowfur]

((Sorry 'bout that, edited my post.))

Bark scooped up some of the blackberries in Darman's hand and began to eat them. The jucie blackberries were good and stained his mouth and the area around it black. He looked over at Verbane, who ahd blackberrie jucie all over her paws and mouth. He laughed, Verbane was quite the character sometimes.

[Kal Skirata]

((Thanks))
Darman looked around and saw that all three of them were covered in blackbery juice. "Hohoho" he said, "We are all turnin' purple, we are!" Remembering that there were others, he turned to Songtree and said "Would you like some blackberries, miss?"

[Scarlet]

(OOC:Songtree. I don't like to copy names from Brian Jacques books, though I do like to change them up a bit.

" Yes, indeed!" Scarlet says, grabbing a double pawful of the blackberries, though it wasn't much in her small, fragile paws. Soon Scarlet had blackberry juice dripping off her snout and purple stained paws.

[Kal Skirata]

"Heehee, now we're for purple beasts!" Darman said. he looked at the last member of the gathering. "And how about ye, Jacob? would ye fance some prime blackberries? they are real juicy, as ye can probably tell!" Darman exclaimed.

[princeire]

Jacob chuckled. "I can tell. And don't mind if I do, thank ye very much, Darman." Setting his walking stick against a log, Jacob bounded up to the group and took a handful of berries. After plopping several for a mouth the group sat chewing for awhile before Jacob swallowed. Wiping some berry juice from his chin he said, "You've found a nice berry bush right here, fellas. I'll make note of that if I pass through here again. Speaking of which, if ye don't mind me asking what brings all ye to the neck of the woods?"

[carabadgermum]

((Jacob gets the prize for providing us with a believable transition. ))

"Bark and I were off to the blinkin' ol' fire mountain, don't ya know. Martin the thinkamy sent us on a flippin' quest." She popped a last berry into her mouth and then pulled a handkerchief out of her pocket, poured some water on it from her canteen and began to dab at her mouth with it politely.
