NEPHELE
The exuberance is unexpected, the woman's wings fluttering uncertainly behind her, but the emotion seems genuine. And only then does Nephele smile, reluctantly charmed by the fact that the other redheaded lass is excited by the prospect of her - or, more likely, the Fae in general - being able to cross the border once more. "Yes, the borders are open once more." Her voice is much warmer, a small smile playing at the edges of her lips. But she is still curious, and nudges at the ball to draw Lily's attention back to her original question. The woman's flushed face makes her grin, pleased, and she drifts away through the air as Lily retrieves her toy.
"Hmm, yes. It has certainly been...friskier. Inclined to a weird sort of sentience." She winks at the word, if only because the stranger is gorgeous even without wings that would make Nephele more inclined to get to know her. Lowering herself, she stretches one foot towards the mud, giving a shocked little laugh when it swipes at her lazily. Turning gleaming hazel eyes to the other woman, she grins. "Perhaps we should play with it?"

and I stood there waiting
even as the first drop fell
wondering why the water burned
