[pointing to a vile.]

That's mine.

[Ara glances at it curiously.] What is it?

[caged_darling]

It's dust. [Not a complete lie since it is pixie dust. Also not the whole truth.] May I please have it back?

[lyrical_soul]

[Rolling the vial around her palm, her long fingers touched it lightly before handing it back.]

Curious dust, my apologies.

[kepthimhuman]

Pixie dust? I thought there wasn't any on the island.

[caged_darling]

[There's a sigh of relief when she carefully takes the bottle back.] You've no need to apologize. I'm the one who should apologize, as I didn't mean to sound short. The dust is just... it's very important to me.

[She offers a friendly smile in greet.] I'm Wendy.

[caged_darling]

Mhmm. The last of it. [for him, she'll offer over the vile for a better look.] Being so high in the tree tops had at least one reward.

[kepthimhuman]

[He takes it and studies it for a moment, then hands it back.] It could be useful. Does anyone know you have it?

[lyrical_soul]

[Ara was curious as to why the vial was so important while she chose her words carefully for a change.] Not necessary, although it is curious as to why dust would be so special.

[She smiles in return and offers her hand.] Nice to meet you, mine is Aranka but I go by Ara for the most part.

[caged_darling]

Useful if someone can get it to work. I've tried and failed. [a slight shake of the vile to loosen the particles and maybe see the magic spark in the dust again.] No one other than you. I've kept it hidden for a long time. So I'm sure if anyone else knew they'd take it.

[kepthimhuman]

We won't tell anyone then.

Tinkerbell is here, maybe she can use it.

[caged_darling]

It's a way home. [her voice is low with the explanation as she wraps the chained vile of dust back around her neck to drape.] Or so I hope it'll be one day.

[accepting the hand Wendy gives it a gentle shake.] Aranka. It's a beautiful name and it's very nice to meet you, too, Ara.

[caged_darling]

Do you think she'll take it if I offer it to her? If anyone can get it to work it'd be Tink.

[kepthimhuman]

I think she would. It would be safer to give it to her than to certain others.

[inquisitive_nature]

My apologies, madam? [A quick glance to the vial in hand is enough to tell him it certainly isn't his; the glass is all wrong and he really doesn't recognize whatever is inside.]

It must have gotten mixed with my own somehow. A dreadful mistake. [Plucking the vial from its holding place on his belt, he offers it to the young woman.] Please forgive this misunderstanding.

[lyrical_soul]

A way home?... [That was an odd explanation. What did she mean?]

[Shaking hers in turn, Ara let go with a puzzled expression.] Thank you, you as well, Wendy.
