[The darkness doesn't bother her, not with her powers coming back online. The sun being blotted out unnaturally might be a little unnerving, but the fireworks make up for it, the sensation of new beginnings and hope make up for it. The steady increase of her order's voices inside her heart definitely make up for it, and they all have the same request.

She's missed their new years ritual at midnight, the augur's singing, the blaze of expectant glory that they put up, the drums and the dancing. It's been her dance for centuries, but just because she's here doesn't mean she gets to skimp on ritual. She takes herself out to the Ruins, the white temple stone seems apt enough, and she begins the firebird's dance. Death and rebirth, prayer and exultation. Those who watch her long enough will feel the urge to dance alongside her. Her movements are strangely graceful for the size of her body, for the power in her feet, each stomp of her feet sets the threads of magic in the air ringing joyfully.

It ends in flame, her head tilted back as the heat flares, engulfing her like a firework all her own, glimmers and then dies. She stands panting, sweaty and smiling.]

New Years. Who wants a kiss?

I hope this place doesn't turn nasty too often, but I think that's just me wishing.

[ Nope, steps are fine. She even hops to the next one once in a while, but then goes back to Paderau, almost circling her like the Birdie-phoenix would.

But she then stops and, as if sensing something off, she tilts her head, a little worried, shifting expressions so very fast. ]

Do you think she is dangerous, the Queen is, is she?

Can't say that yet, baby, but things like to change on a whim around here and that's dangerous.

[ Birdie stops, doesn't climb up the stairs, but then follows Paderau quickly - both because she likes her, very much, yes, and because the warmth is too inviting. She takes her hand in hers and looks up, little pouty face with a determined scowl that wouldn't scare away a fly in a petite face like hers. ]

I'll protect you.

You already did, sweetheart.

[ She doesn't look too convinced, but she nods and leans her head closer, almost as if trying to become one with Paderau. She breathes out slowly, looks up to the colourful sky and smiles, golden eyes shining with the many colours of the sparkles. ]

It is cold, outside, yes. [ She says after a while, closing her eyes. She's tired, little baby bird needs her sleep once in a while and Paderau is such a wonderful pillow! Warm too. ]

S'what happens when little birds lose their little bird clothes. Come on, lets get you snuggled down into your little nest.

[ Oh, Paddy, you spoil her rotten. She wraps her arms around her neck and rubs her nose on the warden's affectionately. ]

Will you stay, for a while, tonight? [ She smiles, the gold of her eyes full of hope and excitement. ]

Yeah. We'll get you warmed up.
