[ eat ] + reverse  for  pips  offering  jaq  food

         “    you  haven’t  seen  anything  yet.  check  this  out.    ”    flying while at a human size was a little tricky, he felt weighed down and heavy but his wings supported him all the same as he hopped up into the air with an easy lift. a green glow engulfed the ferngully fey as he walked across the air and beneath him the long dead dirt of the isle’s barren wasteland seemed to shiver with life. for a moment, that was all it did, but with a little more will and snap of pips fingers, lush green grass sprouted from the dirt. from it grew more, roots of small plants that grew bigger, fresher, and more vibrant than anything ever seen on the isle. fruit plums, peach trees and strawberries began to spread where ever pips hovered, the scent of them almost intoxicating and pips bent forward to snatch up one of the strawberries.

pips dropped back to the hard ground floor and offered the scarlet red fruit to the pirate with a wide and toothy smile,    “    tah - dah !    ”

[ run ]  pips  carries  harriet  to  his  house  home

          “    up  we  go !    ”    it was the only warning pips offered as he dove towards her, his wings fluttering at his back, he caught sight of harriet’s widened gaze moments before he scooped her up into his arms and zipped high into the air. the wind rushed past his ears as a whistle, hair blowing out into the wind and in a streak of green light.    “    hold  on  tight !    ”    pips shouted over the sound of the rushing wind. he climbed higher and higher into the air until the island grew further and further away and the horizon stretched out before them.

it had taken him a handful of years to learn how to fairy travel, how to bend their realms together in order to travel long distances in a short amount of time. the easiest way to describe it, was that he folded the realms together in order to skip between places. much of the magic depended largely on his own power, but places and locations also paid a part in the travel. while the isle itself was mostly barren of the familiar footprints of magic, the area surrounding the isle, particularly the space above the isle, tingled with it, no doubt a lingering affect of the anti-magic barrier that had once been there.

          pips took that lingering magic and used it as fuel. the air seemed to constrict and implode. one moment, he and harriet were high above the isle of the lost and the next, they were high above the familiar forests of ferngully.

[ eat ]  for  jane  to  offer  pips  food

          “    oh,  i  didn’t  get  you  anything.    ”    pips said in a somewhat deflated tone as jane presented him with a little woven basket of fruit and treats. he looked over the ripe plums and bunches of red and purple grapes to the small bag of what he now recognized to be chocolate truffles complete with a small pink bow. pips hummed for a moment before he lifted his hand, with a little will and a little thought, there within the palm of his hand sprouted a small bunch of forget-me-nots with it’s roots spreading out like webbing. pips smiled widely and tucked the flowers behind jane’s ear,    “    there  you  go.  it  matches  your  dress.    ”

          he added and only then did he accept the basket, taking one of the grapes and tossing it into his mouth with a pleased sound.

[ flower ]  for  allie  to  offer  pips  her  favourite  flower

          pips recognized the plant clutched within allie’s hands instantly and his expression brightened at the sight of the familiar yellow dandelions. the leaves always looked meaner than they really were,    “    is  this  for  me ?    ”    pips asked as she presented the potted clipping to him. pips leaned forward as if to give the yellow buds a sniff only to open his mouth and bite the puff ball off at the stem. pips leaned back as he chewed and poked allie fondly in the ribs.    “    thanks,  little.    ”

[ run ] for  evie  to  run  her  fingers  through  pips  hair

          “    you  can  touch  it  if  you  want.    ”    pips offered with a slightly crooked smile. he bent forward, letting crimson locks fall over his shoulders in messy waves and after a moment of hesitation and shy smile, evie done so. pips watched her reach out and tentatively run her fingers along a handful of his locks and when he didn’t move away, she threaded her fingers between them. the smile of the fey grew wider, emerald hues brightening beneath the attention that she adorned to him while she let his locks slip between her fingers and twirl within the palm of her hand.

    “    i  was  a  little  worried  that  i  wouldn’t  be  able  to  keep  them  tidy  outside  of  ferngully,    ”    pips admitted conversationally,    “    but  i  found  some  good  stuff  out  here.  like  coconut  oil !    ”

[ dream ]  for  pips  to  share  a  dream  with  allie

          “    i  dream  sometimes.    ”    pips admitted thoughtfully from where he lounged upon a banana leaf, one leg hanging over one side while he tapped his fingers idly against his reed pipes. he watched allie tend to her plants lazily, humming contently whenever he felt the way that they seemed to beam and sway with approval and happiness beneath allie’s gentle loving care.    “    sometimes  i  don’t  remember  them,  sometimes  they  don’t  really  make  sense.  like  there’s  floating  trees  and  people  speak  backwards.    ”

bizarre and fantastical dreams the feel as if they are visiting visions from different realms. he wondered if allie had meant literal dreams when she had asked if he had any, or if she were wondering about his life goals, but sometimes his dreams and his life goals were one in the same.    “    i  had  a  dream  once  that  i  went  back  home  but  no  one  was  there.  it  was  like  they  all  just  disappeared.    ”

          “    uh  oh,  sorry  about  that.  i’m  still  getting  the  hang  of  doing  stuff  like  this.    ”    pips informed as he reached out to place his hands upon allie’s waist to steady her as she swayed. shrinking her down to ferngully size hadn’t taken as much effort as he had initially believed that it would, but he hadn’t quite thought ahead for the disorientation of the world suddenly becoming so much larger than life once she was standing at under four inches tall. pips laughed, patting her gently on the shoulder.

          “    you’ll  get  used  to  it !  now,  let’s  teach  you  how  to  fly !    ”

WORD  PROMPT  COMPILATION ↳↳ accepting  ( @marisouls​ )

[ run ]  for  marisol  to  run  her  fingers  through  pips  hair

          the world was so much greater than the elders could have ever described. forests tall as the clouds and seas so deep and so wide that they seemed endless. pips had met all manner of creature and human during his travels but marisol was the first sea witch and he found her tactile familiarity endearing. she curled her fingers around the end of a thick lock, her ebony black nails a startling contrast against the crimson of his hair, and twirled it around her finger.     “    what’s  the  big  deal,  huh ?  you’re  acting  like  you’ve  never  seen  hair  like  this  before.    ”    pips said, the corners of his mouth curling upwards into a wide smile that flashed the peaks of his sharp canines. marisol gave his lock a playful tug and pips leaned forward quickly, raising an arm to rest against the forest trunk beside her so that he could bring their faces to a level height. 

     “    hey,  if  you  wanted  me  closer  you  just  had  to  ask.    ”

Ferngully (1992) for @riddlebat

[furnborn]

A guide for exploring the woods

Only go in the summer. The winter court will do you no favours. The summer court is less malevolent, but no safer.

When you enter, know that time will not work in your favour. You may lose entire lifetimes within hours. 

Choose a new name, but don’t keep it for too long, otherwise you will belong to it. 

Bring cold iron, wear red.

Carry red berries from a rowan, mountain ash, or holly tree. St. John’s Wort or red verbena flowers are acceptable as well. They will keep you safe, but not for long.

To see through the glamours, place four-leaf clovers in a pouch around your neck. It may help.

Children should wear crowns of daisies. 

If you return home, and your child is different, do not go looking for what you have lost. 

Leave the same way you entered, but never return through the same entrance. The second time, they will know enough to keep you. 

Do not stand in the mushroom rings. If someone you know enters a ring, you cannot save them. 

Never accept a gift. They will want something in return.

Be polite, but do not say thank you.

The food will be the best you have ever tasted. Only eat it if you wish to never leave. 

If you must stay the night, sleep under the rowan, holly, or ash tree. The elder wood will make you tired. Do not close your eyes.

If you hear music, you are running out of time. If you hear harps, your time is up. 

Don’t join the dancing unless they give you a token.

You cannot become one of them, however much you desire to leave your life behind. 

If you see an alder tree, know you will not be lucky enough to go home unscathed. 

Sit under a hawthrone tree or an elderwood tree on midsummer’s eve if you need to find the courts.

Place salt on your windowsills if you make it back, otherwise they will follow you home.

If you meet other explorers in the woods, do not help them. They have been there too long. Do not let them know you can leave, otherwise they will try come with you. Do not let them help you, they will try make you stay.
