Sand flew as Buce rolled, wings flailing and sending sand flying into the air. It felt wonderful, the sand scratching away every itch and insect that dared to bother his ebony coat. Azeeza occupied herself with watching the flaming falcon wraith that had begun to follow the pair around ever since their return to the Throat, her golden orbs suspicious and not at all liking the potential competition for Buce's affections. Done with his sandbath, the Morningstar got to his feet, shaking himself thoroughly; once... twice... three times, until he was positive he got most of the grains of sand out from his more... private places. His gilded gaze found Azeeza, and he regarded the pair with amusement; Azeeza with her ruffled nape, and the flaming falcon that just stared deadpan at them both. Buce didn't think that he somehow managed to obtain a second companion, no... far more likely that this was the Sun God's work. "Zee, don't mess with it. You'll just burn yourself" He called as he watched them, the juvenile falcon shooting him a look before continuing her staredown with the firebird. Lips curling into a soft smile, the black turned his head and began running his lips over his wings, dislodging sand and plucking feathers that were too ragged or rough, feathers that would hamper his speed in the air. Soon one wing was finished, the dark feathers as sleek and black as his companion's, the sharp-edged wings built for speed something the pair had in common. Azeeza gave up trying to stare down the phantom, and instead took off to hunt, her thoughts dark with jealousy and a desire to chase away the invader, tempered only by Buce's constant, gentle reminder that the bird was... you know... made of fire, and she of flesh. Buce watched the falcon as she flew away, before he began to work on the other wing, perfectly relaxed, though as ever his body was in a constant state of motion; shoulder-feathers ruffling before lying flat, tail swishing, his body rocking back and forth ever so slightly. His energy had returned, his spirit once again whole and strong, restoring him to his former good humor. @[Ranjiri] Bucephalus
