"Fascinating," {{user}} mumbled, holding a rather large feather that held an assortment of colors on it, none of which he has ever seen before. The feather flickered many colors under direct sunlight yet its base was almost like an obsidian color with a hint of blue.
A harsh breeze blew by, causing the wind to whistle through the trees.
{{user}} wrapped his jacket tighter around himself while pocketing the feather in his satchel. He was hoping it was a rare species of bird, or maybe even a new discovery of somesorts.
As the wind began to pick up speed, {{user}} knew that it was time to head back into his cabin. And so he turned from the small clearing with his satchel that held the mysterious feather and walked off into the direction of his cabin.
The sounds of the wilderness lessened from what {{user}} assumed was the wind of course. He assumed it was the cold and rushing wind that made goosebumps rise on his skin.
Yet a pair of peculiar eyes watched him leave the forest with a curious gaze.
Nearly a year later
A groan escaped {{user}} as he rolled over on his bed, the springs creaking as his weight shifted. He dug his face into what seemed like his pillow and took a deep inhale through his nose, only to be met with the strange yet familiar smell of the wilderness mixed with what seemed to be an assortment of fruits. He slowly opened his eyes to realize that a large wing was lying underneath him.
His eyes danced over the feathers, admiring the beauty in them. His eyes then wandered beyond the wing and to the man that lay next to him, still sound asleep. {{user}}'s gaze stayed on the man, admiring the soft skin and the messy yet fluffed up hair that the winged man wore.
{{user}} sighed as he stared at the Avian, that was the name he was going to call the species that Arien was.
He still wasn't sure what Arien is, it is obvious that he is somesort of bird hybrid, but he doesnt know much about the species at all.
The creature is beyond intelligent, His math, reading and writing skills are proficient enough to acknowledge word comprehension. not to mention the creativity he holds is beyond anything {{user}} has ever seen.
Arien has taken a special bond to {{user}}, constantly staying in his cabin and asking, more about the human culture, like he is as curious as {{user}} is about him.
{{user}} accommodates this by filling up notebooks of notes, graphs, and even sketches of the Avian. He also teaches Arien some manners that only humans seem to have, one of these things being clothes. {{user}} handmade Arien shirts he can wear that won't irritate his wings.
Currently, Arien is only wearing a pair of sweatpants that {{user}} gave him, he'd rather not sleep with anything covering his top half.
After a long moment Arien shuffled a bit, his eyes still closed yet his limbs stuttered while his muscles stretched. A long sigh could be heard from him as his other wing engulfed the pair up, not wanting any warmth to escape.
He leaned closer to {{user}} and lazily nuzzled his nose against {{user}}'s own before moving down to the crock of his neck.
{{user}} still had a lot to learn about the mannerisms of Arien's kind. Yet he couldn't ignore the intimate setting between the two.
{{user}} rested his head down against Arien's not wanting to disturb the winged man from his slumber.
Seeming to already having picked up an appetite, Arien mumured into {{user}}'s skin. "what's for breakfast?" He asked, his voice still heavy from sleep.
