HOKAY so, I feel like I've been working on this all month and just barely getting it done in the neck of time (thank you so much to the extensions) but guh... it's done.

Some preface; since in my current timeline with my poufs, Cres and Symphony are supposed to be higher tiered mages than Dusk, and his plot line is still waiting for a third player (but now I'm not sure how I'm going to come about his means since myos are no longer available ;;') in any case, I decided that Cres and Symp should be worked on in the mean time.

So, this is technically 'in the past' when Cres and Symp are younger and still learning magics~ hence why there's some differences you may notice in their designs (Symph doesn't have her white streak, both their antlers are smaller, hair is shorter, etc.~) which it's in this manner that I'll conduct all their future prompts as well so hopefully it will be interesting to see them when they were younger. Also, random babes are random ;; i forgot to look for people interested in a feature~

Anyhows, here's an introduction to what's going on~

-----

“Hurry up Sym, we’re going to be late!” the young pouflon called over her shoulder being steadily pursued by another; though her speed was not as full of life as her friend, and certainly in no immediate rush. “It’s not like two minutes is really going to make much of a difference Cres…” the other called after, keeping up her steady trot as they headed towards Crysanthos’ orphanage. It was early in the day, and a rather sunny one at that; beautiful outside and perfect weather for enjoying the sun, however, for these two poufs in particular, it was a day not for relaxing outdoors, but instead, spending time indoors with some young poufs in need of entertainment.

 

Granted, the orphanage almost always had plenty of staff on hoof to care for the little ones, but recently, a call went out asking for volunteers to help keep the buds entertained while some staff changes were processed. Of course, Crescendo volunteered herself, always willing to spend time at the orphanage and lend a helping hoof if it was asked of her; Symphony just so happened to be dragged along after a long speech by her friend- half of which she actually listened to, and the other half she swore she had heard before when there was a need for help at the local bakery. Needless to say, by Symphony’s calculations, they were in a rush for now reason, as a few minutes past the hour wouldn’t matter to a bunch of rowdy baby poufs, too busy playing with toys or tormenting their caregivers to notice the time. Yet, Crescendo insisted and here they were, trotting their way up to the palace.

 

Still trying to wake up, Symphony was behind Crescendo by a slowly increasing amount of paces, though, eventually she was able to catch up as Crescendo spoke to the doormen about their mission and possibly her entire life story while she was at it. After confirming with the other caregivers, the two poufs were allowed in and quickly debriefed on what would be going on that day; which to Crescendo, sounded like a very thought out plan and detailed situation with guidelines and time frames and whatnot, but what Symphony heard was “We need you guys to entertain them for a few hours while we take a vacation” feel free to choose who you’d rather believe, but in any case, it wasn’t long before they were lead into the nursery, where the sound of rambunctious pouf babes were running about and playing in their free time.

 

With an excited clap of her hooves, Crescendo eagerly awaited as the attention of the babes were acquired by the caregiver and she explained what herself and Symphony were doing there that day. With all eager eyes on them, Crescendo thanked the caregiver as she left and then addressed the small audience herself. “Hello there young ones, my name is Crescendo, but feel free to call me Cres if that’s easier for you…my friend here is named Symphony, and she’ll be giving me a hoof with showing you guys some magic tricks… are you excited to see some magic?” A little cheer went up from the crowd, filling Crescendo with pride and a tinge of nervousness, though after glancing to Symphony, nodded and cleared her throat.

 

“Alright, this is a little something I’ve been working on, and I hope you enjoy it…” after a moment of silence, Crescendo began to sing, her voice ringing like a clear bell on a misty morning; soft and gentle, but crisp and clear at the same time, echoing gently through the halls of the orphanage and filling the air with a gentle melody. At first, nothing spectacular happened, but after a moment, the ribbon tied around her neck began to wiggle and move, slowly coming to life. The light in the young pouf’s eyes quickly brightened with awe and wonder as the ribbon began to unravel and float freely into the air. Though most stayed hushed and awestruck, several began to whisper and wiggle with excitement; it wasn’t often that they got to see such a performance, and with having rarely heard of any pouf actually being able to meld their voice with magic, it was certainly a spectacular sight to see.

 

The little show went on for as long as Crescendo’s song lasted, her final note ending with her ribbon being wrapped and tied right back around her neck. With pride in her eyes, the crimson pouflon looked to the young ones as they all started talking at once, many questions of ‘how did you do that?’ and others of the same sort flew at her, though all she could do was chuckle and shake her head. “I’m sorry children, but I’m afraid my best answer is time and practice. Perhaps one day you all might be where I’m sitting now and showing off your own magical talents to wide eyed and bushy tailed buds like yourself… but for now, my friend may also have a show to put on for you as well…if you ask her nicely…” Crescendo smiled, and just like that, suddenly, all the attention was on Symphony.

 

With a dreaded swallow, Symphony sat up and offered the kiddos a smile. “Alright, if you insist…”
