[ 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.

[ 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.

[ 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.    ”

[ 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.

[ 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.    ”

[ help ]  for  allie  to  lean  on  pips  for  support

          “    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.

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.
