"Whatever you like. Just Siv if you want ... " Then a wink "I'll remmeber the little people" Then a whisper "or DAME Kerri won't feed me" A look around "Pardon, I got to go thank Zara for putting up with this noise" A pat on Dag's shoulder "Falcon Lion contests later this week"

"Oh, you're ON."

Siv moves to Zara and says to her and Earl "Thank you so much for putting up with this" A grin.

Word does spread. Everyoen who got an outfit tonight gets to KEEP it

“Little people. Pah!” Piper sighs. “I should visit a boggan hold and feel tall for once.”

Zara smiles, if a bit strained. "I am glad to see it.. though... methinks it is time to check my Library."

"I understand completely," Siv says "I'll try to keep the crowds and friends away from there if they're still partying. You deserve some respite" A look "or maybe a snuggle with Earl."

Earl says "We don't snuggle in the library, but sometimes she uses me as a seat cushion, and that's quite pleasant"

Siv beams with delight at that

PINK.

Gerd looks at PIPER "Maybe your horns will grow yet? get that EXTRAA half inch?"

Siv smiles "Regardless, thank you both for coming. May the dustbunnies of your library be literate and loving" and with that blessing she moves on

A bow, and Zara retreats.

And Earl is gone with her

True to Siv's word, it seems the party has many facets, some more relaxed and informal, others wild and passionate, and even a bit of 'high class' .. something for everyone.

Dagmar meets a Gwydion childling girl who talks to her of the difficulties of 'herding Fiona' and gives her advice

Ha!

She does listen, very earnestly.

SUCH a handful they are.

And Connor might even make a friend in the soft spoken poodle pup boy who seems amazed at how BRAVE Connor is to be riding the backs of Giants. "You could fall to your death"

“It’s not so very far down, when you know they can’t let you fall.” He advises wisely.

"You have much to teach me, Monsieur Pupyakki" a sigh of respect

"When do we find the lassie bon bons?" And will let Enri hopefully lead him to a table of treats.

Enri gapes "You like treats? I thought it was just me!" And puffy tail wagging, he leads him to the table of treats!

And Piper gets to play, moving Siv to laughter and tears.

And from the Garden later comes Piper's voice, singing in honor of Siv's achievement!

You're a wise old owl when you're the cat's meow
If this were twelfth grade you'd be my cap and gown
If this were India then you'd be a sacred cow
and I'd bow down to you
So grateful to the gods for making you...

Fingers dancing along the guitar she borrowed from one of the troubadors.

You fuckin' did it?!
You really did it yeah!
You fuckin' did it!
You fuckin' did it!

Her smile infectious as she looks to the guest of honor, the song mirroring all of the achievements waiting the newest Fiona Knight.

You'll be standing up for the equal right of the American people
and you'll be meeting all the influential seekers with a similar dream!
You've got a front seat saved that's emblazed with your name-
and a super hero cape on!

You see the future as a sky full of possibility
With a spryness of mind and a psychic ability
You probably won't die at the hands of an enemy
and not in a den of inequity....

A giggle bubbling through at the 'den of inequity' - one never knows with a Fiona...

When you circumnavigating the turntable call and attracts
Like you be jumpin' in the water you be makin' a splash!
You be keepin' your heart beat going
and keepin' the harmony going...

Her voice a purr, she doesn't quite leak the gift of pan, but maybe later if no one objects - but for now, just boundless enthusiasm in her emotion!

You touch me like an iPhone application
Move me like a smooth jazz music station
Doin' what you do in the way that you choose to do them
oh my God...! (This- music paused and said with VIGOR!)

You're quick to be so quotable
Damn you got a way with words
You got a magical handshake for saving the earth
You are a generous knight!
You are so awesome it hurts

and you are A-W-E-S-O-M-E...
You really did it yeah!
You fuckin' did it!

There are more lines, but the point is made - SHE F-CKIN DID IT!

Cheers and claps and and yes a hug from Siv

Stevi, fellow satyress and one half the Troubadours at Earthrunes joins in and also offers to show a fellow commoner around anytime

Piper grins to Stevi, "I might just take you up on that!"

And, looks around for Jonas...

And she finds him. his eyes are on Siv as Siv goes about thanking folks, sharing drinks and more

But when he sees Piper, he smiles just a bit "Raucous but fitting serenade."

She makes her way over to his side. "I don't know how you did it, earlier." She comments softly. "My heart was in my throat watching her climb!"

"Trollish will power, blood pressure medicine, one of those" He says "You know I hear Liams join up they go nude. I was glad she didn't have to, but after this, I think maybe it would be less stressful. HOw are you doing?"

BLINK. A sudden mental image of a nude liam- NOPE, her head shakes vigorously to get rid of THAT.

"Now that's a picture I didn't need... I feel like I need fresh nudes to cleanse my palate."

A grin up at Jonas. "It's like, I KNEW she had this and wouldn't fall, but it still was nerve-wracking!"

A nod at her 'Nope' look, then smiling juust a bit "It was. " A worried look "I hope this doesn't change her too much"

She bites her lip. "She seems the same..." Gaze drifting back over to Siv.

Siv is positively glowing with energy. She'll never match a sidhe's shine, but the energy, the carefree joy of her is tangible

"...and happy."

A smile at that from him "yes, her delight is my delight" A sigh "I fear the woman has robbed me completely of a locus of the self. "

A soft sigh. "She has that affect on people, yeah...."

But then a smile, and she gives Jonas a nudge. "You've been by her side on this whole journey. You should enjoy the party together, no?"

"Oh I will. Right now she's slurping down water and acting like it's gin or something." he nods "After her 28th hand shake or hug I get to pull her away as she's 'had too much' " A nod

Then a smile at PIper "Piper... ah, Siv and I.. i'm not.. as open as any but, she asked if there was anyone I would welcome to.." A blush "Well, you care about her. I see that. So.. no pressure, but if you ever decide, let us know. "

Her head tilts to one side, and she reaches to take one of Jonas's larger hands within her own small ones. "Is this something -you- want? Or something that, maybe you want for her? I mean... oh, I'm no good with my own words." She pouts a moment as she searches. "If the welcome is from both of you... and isn't something where I'd be coming between what you two already have? I... I think I'd really like to be a part of something we can share."

He squeezes the hand back "I think there's a reason I say no to a lot of other people, and while I might have to think on WHY that is, I can say you are not unwelcome. But, if you want? The three of us will get together and talk about it. Perhaps in your apartment for lunch later? Congratulations on that by the way"

She beams up at him. "Thank you for understanding. I just... I like Siv a lot. And I like you, too. And that's not something I'd toss away at the chance for a fun night, right?" And with that, will let him mingle and go chat with Stevie a bit more, maybe see if there are any duets she knows to keep the party pumpin' - not that a Fiona shindig has any chance of winding down!

And off he goes. And oh, my... yeah, ain't no party quite like a Fiona party. And she's glad to notice the Fiona HERE Seem to be cooler and less manipulative than one jerk she knew

Z is in her library, Emma is dancing to music... Dagmar seems to have found a few other trolls and they are hurling heavy rocks in the garden and talking about technique.

Or Jedi and superheroes!
