Understand Me...Somehow (One or two at the most please)

Elathon bursts to his feet, looking at his hands, "Well..." he says softly, though the sound still echoes down the tunnel, "what an interesting concept, a body."

Phoenix watched him as she stood up again, staying quiet for the most part besides tilting her head. Lowering her hands to her sides as she watched him.

Elathon laughs again, deep dark blue lines spreading like veins from the corners of his eyes. "Why do I need to share such wonders?" He looks over at Phoenix, "so..." he stops and thinks for a second, "What do you think of this?"

Phoenix paused a bit and rubbed her arm, briefly thinking. "Still debating...but interesting..." she answered after a bit, really not knowing what to think much yet.

Elathon reaches a clawed hand out and touches her cheek, "interesting hmm? How little you know." His hands had also turned the deep majestic blue, with veins of it licking up his arms like azure fire.

Phoenix faintly glanced down his arm, having paused herself again before she focused back on his face, answering again quietly. "Very..."

"Heh, why be so quiet?" Elathon laughs, slightly harshly, "it could be worse." He bows deeply.

Phoenix raised an eyebrow but shrugged a bit, shifting a bit from the bow and inclined her head in response. "Don't need to know too much..." She said again to his previous question, her head tilted.

"Hmm... you sure are an interesting one." He straightens up, and grabs her chin roughly, "why not show a little..." His eye seems to shift slightly, the blue around them growing larger. "Fffang." He grins letting go again, and turning to walk further into the tunnel.

Phoenix just briefly shuddered as he did, watching him again. Her eyebrow raised again at the last word and her head fell an inch as he let go. she shook her head and sighed to herself, mumbling then walked after him, keeping her hands down at her sides and her thoughts to a minimum.

"You don't want that fool back do you?" Elathon laughs back, "'cause I'm going to put an end to his wishy-washy ways."

Phoenix sighed again, not answering right away as she continued walking behind him. She glanced up briefly, giving him a blank look as her only reaction and answer.

Elathon had turned back, walking quickly, watching the water growing redder and redder, until it almost mimicked his eyes

Phoenix continued to follow at the pace, vaguely noting the water as she thought a bit. She wondered what to do, confusion deepening, but she kept quiet.

Elathon stops as he reaches the end of the tunnel, a spring dribbling pure red liquid out . "Well, here he ends." he leans forward and presses his lips to the spring.

Phoenix watched briefly then slipped her hand behind her back, her index finger twitching. She didn't know even what she tried to do, but the liquid had turned diluted like the water she had tried. The dark red still flowed, but it changed whenever he tried to drink it.

Elathon drinks a bit anyway, but lifts his face up, one eye had returned to normal. "Well this is strange." He says in his normal voice.

Phoenix gave off a confused look, her hand stayed still behind her back as she glanced to the water, her eyes having turned back red again at the faintest smell of the 'earths' blood.

"I think it's trying to return order, that's all it does, but it does it in strange ways." He looks at Phoenix, "can I have a full drink now?"

Phoenix's lip twitched and she sighed. Grumbling to herself but she trusted him and she let her hand drop, shifting back a foot maybe and looked down.

Elathon nods and takes a sip from the spring, when he looks up again his face has returned to normal, "remind me not to manifest like that for a while."

"Surely..." She replied, shaking her head to herself before rubbing her jaw, glancing to the red water absently as her face creased dizzily.

"Do you want to drink? or leave?" Elathon asks softly, the weird echoing effect gone from his voice.

Phoenix thought a bit, trying to decide before she walked over to the water stiffly, kneeling down a bit and dipping her hand into the water.

Elathon stepped back gving her room, looking on silently.
