ooc: No posting order. Please wait at least two posts before posting again. I will decide at the end for my WC Time: Dusk, the sun is setting Song:
I sat on my perch on a street lamp the oily light from the city blocking my view from the heavens. But still I would sing. The sun was setting and across the city the dim light from the street lamps flickered on. I was in the what the humans referred to as the slums. From here I would find a better place to see the stars. I was in the form of a large nightingale with dark feathers and white wing tips. Strange coloring for such a bird, but still I did not care. The smell from the lower commons was like a thick fog of unwashed bodies, human and animal waste, and of course death. My voice was as it always had been. Pure and powerful, made from the very first song that had ever graced the heavens. I was not in my spiritual form so that I could interact with those around me here on earth. Too bad most of the humans would not care in their short little lives, that their ears had been blessed with my voice. I sighed and then drew a breath and began to sing. The song was one of my favorites from this era of human living.
There on the dull gloomy streetlamp, outside of a whore house, I began to sing my sweetly depressing song. Causing a few humans to stop and look around wondering where such a voice was coming from. I looked up to the heavens and sang to my creator as I did every evening, hoping to be heard. I wanted to go home. I had made a foolish choice and I wanted to go back. But for years nothing had come of it. I was saddened and my heart wept for the loss of Eden. The humans around me were moved without knowing why. A few had their eyes shedding a few tears. I had that power over people. Misery loves company.
The sun is sleeping quietly Once upon a century Wistful oceans calm and red Ardent caresses laid to rest
For my dreams I hold my life For wishes I behold my night The truth at the end of time Losing faith makes a crime
I wish for this night-time to last for a lifetime The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea Oh how I wish to go down with the sun Sleeping Weeping With you

I was walking down the lower commons with a calmness that some might have found strange. A seventeen year old girl, seemingly on her own walking through this place that belonged to the heights. I was coming down here to meet with a friend that helped me better then any of my mother's doctors for the trauma that had plagued me from the night that I lose my purity. A possessed being, with a demon sealed within. Our connection bloodied, falling Sakura petals that symbolized my fall on both our back, I supposed. I said nothing about it to Ryota as I walked along the road, my eyes cast down on the streets for a moment before I looked up with a strong look on my face. That made most rapists and robbers avoid me, not to mention that one of my hands was hidden- what if I had a knife or a gun? They were too poor to even enjoy the moment if they had to worry about that. I wore my usual lolita glothic attire, with no platform shoes. My shoes themselves made light clicks on the ground as I watched where I was going. I had a sense that today might be a good day, for the simple fact that no one yet had tried anything. However, soon I encountered why. Some were entranced by this beatutiful and ye mournful song. I stopped for a moment, one arm gripping the other- I had to be strong. I looked around and then saw it. I stared right at the bird's eyes and walked towards it's perch as I placed a hand up to it, turned over for the bird to land on if it chose. I had Ryota to protect me if the need be. I was still a very sweet person and I gave this bird a very sweet smile, wondering if it would join me for the journey. My soft voice filtered from my lips in a sing song voice, i was to enhance the bird's song (after all, singing was one of my passions), though it was merely human, a sot repeat of the bird's words in a young girl's voice.
