[Over the SFC]

[For anyone who hasn’t seen Lea yet, he appears to be some sort of bastard child between a large bird and fire, or ashes, depending on when someone sees him. Right now, it’s the point inbetween, with his currently gray hair just beginning to regain its spikiness, embers visible near his scalp. There are feathers along his jaw and the corners of his eyes, and also focused a great deal on his forearms and hands. His entire bottom half? That of a bird. The large wings attached to his back are a nice touch too. ]

[Right now, he looks a bit frustrated as he rubs his chin, one large talony-fingernail visible.]

So, I don’t suppose any of you really magical folk know how to make a bird-guy stop spontaneously combusting? Because that is some information I could really use. A lot. I’d try and use some of my usual magic, but I think I’m limited to fire magic right now.

…And also I have the voice of a freakin’ god, if I do say so myself, but that’s seriously not much use, know what I’m saying?

[Morning in the forest]

[Hop hop hop! Sure is Lea, carrying a basket of goodies and looking for a house of… some kind. Listen, he’s not much of a Little Red Riding Bird, but Carol said there was a Grandma's house he had to deliver these to…]

[Help a bird out?]

[Midday, the marketplace]

[Guess who’s gotten the hang of this whole ‘having wings’ thing since the curse started?]

[So if you’re wandering around today, then you might have a phoenix-boy suddenly come swooping down to try and land on your shoulders, if you’re big enough. Also? He’s a lot more… fiery than this morning. As in, really fiery.]

[Strangely enough, it doesn’t burn, but like anyone is going to notice that with a giant flaming bird all over them.]

[‘But wait!’ you may ask. ‘What if they’re not big enough to be landed on?’]

[Well, for those light enough in weight, they may find themselves being carried off by a grinning jackass of a phoenix boy.]

[He’s a sweetheart. Really. Probably.]

[Evening, wherever]

[And then a flaming pile of SOMETHING crashed near you.]

[…Sorry about that.]

[The fires go out quick enough, leaving an enormous pile of ash in their place. Something appears to be moving inside of them… Investigate?]

[... Why are all of his red haired friend suddenly turning into mythical creatures? But at least he knows where Axel got his bad luck from. Go figure.]

Speak for yourself!

[It's a hereditary thing, apparently. Or... a... self... thing.]

It's not my fault you haven't heard me sing, Sora. I'm amazing.

[Uh. This is Sora. Whatever way you explain it? He's not gonna get it.]

Oh yeah? Prove it.

Prepare to have your mind exploded, my good man.

[Laughing, Lea sets the SFC down and then hops back a bit until he's crouched down, bird legs and all, and clears his throat. He's never taken himself for a singer before, but this curse has done something amazing for his vocals. A deep breath...]

[It isn't normal human singing. That much is obvious. It almost seems instrumental, in a way, but still very much birdsong. Difficult to describe, in other words- that's just how a Phoenix song is. They can ensnare the attention of even a god sometimes.]
