Name: Erynn Age (optional):15 Gender: Female Experience: I’ve done RP for about a year and a half now and have been on countless sites. How'd you find us?: Hm…I wonder. RP Sample:
Quote:
show me that you’ll softly touch my raised palms; never…until the end
How long had it been since she played?
Close your eyes NIGHT GROWING Recall That memory
Far, far too long, she decided.
Bite your frozen lips They appreciate each other's shoulders The last day I saw you Is hidden in the depths of memory
The soft, trill sounds of a flute pierced the air around the mountain tops. It played in perfect harmony with the wind's whistling breeze, the breeze that only blew this high up from sea level. Despite the pp volume, the music was carried to who knows how far away at an mf volume, at least. It was unintentional for the player, but that wasn't any of her concern, as long as no humans heard. The expertly skilled fingers of one, lone vampiress danced across it's keys without hesitation.
Above the lake Walk that WONDERFUL VIEW
Aine loved her flute. Ever since she was a mortal girl and all they had were instruments made of wood, - unless of course, you were of high status in society - she loved to play. And since she 'died', she had unlimited time to perfect her musical ability. Even though her lips brought such pretty melodies, not many knew she played. Fahrenheit knew, but that was only because he had caught her - was it really only months ago? - down by the river, playing an elegant classical piece. And obviously, everyone, Vampire or Werewolf, knew she owned the local music store. They must have concluded she either played multiple instruments - which was true, too. She played dabbled in many, many instruments, but soft Wind Instruments were her passion.
Snow Kiss Don't say that I'm going to say 'GOODBYE' to you like this The time has come to a stop like to meet a beautiful starry sky
It was hardly rare for anyone of the local Coven to find her on the mountain tops. The red haired Seneschal often came here to think or to relax. There were too many werewolves that loved the beach nowadays, so she couldn't hang out there. Not unless she wanted to pick a fight or keel over from the stench. She loved the river, too, but she wanted to feel the wind in her hair today. Besides, this trek only took her ten minutes tops, to reach the summit. She didn't need all that complicated gear. Today, Aine danced gracefully to the top in a pale blue dress. To vampires, climbing was just as easy as walking up hill.
White, sparkling breath She gently to wrap up the ice following a change The darkness becomes an AURORA
Darkness to go to live YOU BABY Without crying Without crying The two walked out toward
At this moment, Aine sat perched on a high ledge. Her legs dangled off the side while she played her song effortlessly. The song she played had been one she heard a while ago, then re-composed it so that she could play it on the piano and with her flute. The up-beat chorus was now toned down so that it had a more...sad tone to it. She didn't mind though. She just simply enjoyed it when the sound reached her ears; another success.
Snow Kiss This is far, will not cry when I see that day, YOU WILL With breath abandoned
When her song started to come to a close, Aine could hear distant footsteps scaling the side of the cliff at a leisurely pace. When she took another breath to supply the next string of notes, she found she had nothing to worry about. It was another vampire. No one that was dangerous to her, nor someone she might have exposed herself to. She would greet this person, whoever it may be, when she finished.
With the last song phrase came a gust of wind that forced her dress to ruffle around her and her hair to whip wildly back and fourth. She payed no mind as the last note ended.
Snow Kiss Don't say that I'm going to say 'GOODBYE' to you like this Unable to see or feel scars Don't erase it
Don't erase it

All These Things That I've Done;;
Mother: Aisling Harper [Author] Father: Riley Harper [Musician-Pianist-] Siblings: Saoirse Harper Pets: Springer Spaniard named Nora Heritage: Almost all Irish, but a small percentage French Hometown: Kinsale, Southern Ireland
History:
Grace Harper was born on November fifteenth, nineteen-ninety-two to Riley and Aisling Harper in the large capital of Ireland. This bustling city was a bit much for the infantile couple and their new daughter, so soon after Grace was born they moved down south to Kinsale, (which lies on the coast). Both, young in age, hadn't really planned on having a child just yet but were thrilled to do so. Immediately Riley sought out a career he loved in music, while Aisling stayed home with her small child-just writing in her free time.
Riley's job as a piano artist and music writer was stable, but not the best paying occupation. The family lived humbly in a small two story home. Grace was a playful child that lead a good life while being home schooled by her mother. It was happily just the three of them. That was, until the year two-thousand when Saoirse was born. That was when the thirty-two year-old mother decided that she should also find a paying job to now support her family of four.
It took a short amount of time even while carrying a baby on her back (not to mention helping a eight-year-old Grace) to find someone interested in her dabbling in creative writing. Not long after Saoirse's first birthday, Aisling's first book was published.
The book was successful in the ranks and the family soon gained a better sum of steady income for the family. They moved to a larger home and obtained the classic family pet.
As years went by, the two sisters got along very well, Grace being much more like a second mother to little Saoirse. She was very giving and shared all of her things with the toddler, (which is odd if you think about it). The two grew up quickly, but it soon became apparent that the two had very different personalities; pretty much the total opposite of each other. But that didn't pull them apart at all.
By the time she was eleven, Grace's vocabulary was abnormally large from reading multiple books and her writing skills were very good for her age. Her mother took pride in her daughter and has begun teaching her everything she knew.
But, when the time came, Aisling found that her shy daughter should go to a real school; but she wanted to make sure Grace could become a writer there. This lead to her sending the now sophomore girl to the boarding school in Massachusetts called Davenport.
