Great...I've got horns in human form.
As I opened my mouth to begin explaining to my mother everything that had transpired between escaping Acheron, arriving at Gaia, and finally coming to her; a small
spindly creature dropped from the ceiling and landed on Shalimar's head. Screaming bloody murder, Shalimar leapt to her feet and ran in circles as the creature on her head giggled madly.
"Ahra!" I said, scooping the small creature off of Shalimar's head. "Ahra! I never thought I'd see you again!"
Carefully scrambling onto my mother's lap, Shalimar asked, "Momma? What is that?"
"This is Ahra," I said as the creature slipped out of my arms and perched on my head. "He's a Ruewuria. He was my pet when I was your age. He--" Feeling sharp teeth in my head, I ran around while screaming, "HE'S BITING MY HEAD! BAD AHRA! BAD! BAD AHRA!"
Making a trilling noise, my mother called Ahra over to him. With a quick motion, she snapped Ahra in half. Handing the small carcass over to Neiren, mom said, "I always told you that thing would bite you one day..."
"I'd say 'bite me' but that's already been done," I replied sourly. Feeling my head, I felt tiny bumps form where Ahra had bit me. Groaning with more fustration than pain, I felt the horns elonginate into speartips. "Lovely. Everyone back home is going to have fun with this."
"Momma's horny," Shalimar said innocently.
"Very horny judging by the looks," my mom said.
"Laugh it up, like I won't get enough of it when I go home" I said. Pointing at Neiren
[+1] I said, "Don't you dare say anything."
