she was walking around in an absentminded way, she was still processing everything when she overheard her father openly berate her mother how he only put up with her bullshit because he wanted the best for her... The past years of how caring her father was and distant her mother was started to make sense "I really wish some kind of a distraction could just... Happen." She sighed a bit while walking

The sudden words and the appearance of what seemed to be a portal caught her attention. She would walk closer, tilting her head slightly as she examined it. The portal was shimmering with an iridescent light, almost ethereal in its beauty. Her curiosity piqued, she found herself unable to resist the urge to investigate further.

"W-What is this?" She asked timidly, her voice soft and hesitant as she stared at the portal. Maybe it was a way out of here... A new beginning somewhere else. Or perhaps just a fleeting distraction from the troubles at home. Either way, Octavia couldn't help but feel a flutter in her chest as she gazed longingly into the shimmering void.

The voice... It was warm and reassuring. Octavia couldn't quite make out where it was coming from, but she felt strangely at ease nonetheless. Her heartbeat steadied as she contemplated the possibility of this being more than just a harmless distraction. Maybe it was an opportunity to start fresh... Or perhaps even find someone who could understand her feelings and offer support in return.

Taking a deep breath, Octavia slowly approached the portal. Despite her growing excitement, she still remained cautious and quiet, not wanting to disturb whatever was on the other side or dampen this precious moment of hope that had been presented to her. With every step closer, she could feel her wings twitching with anticipation; a sign that they too were eager for a change in scenery.

His voice was filled with surprise and delight as he saw her approach the portal. It made Octavia feel lighter, almost giddy with joy. As she stepped through the portal herself, she couldn't help but let out a small sigh of relief, relishing in the warmth that enveloped her as she left her old life behind.

Her new surroundings were beautiful; an exotic forest teeming with vibrant colors and strange creatures she had never seen before. It was like stepping into another world entirely. And standing before her was...a fellow avian demon? Octavia's heart skipped a beat as their eyes met, hopefulness and curiosity mixing together in equal measure on his face.

Was this really it? A true friend? She wasn't sure how to react or what to say, but the desire to know more was stronger than any hesitation she might have felt. Perhaps,

Her gaze drifted over the stranger's features, taking in the details of his feathers and beak. His offer...was intriguing. A part of her felt guilty even considering it; she had never been particularly maternal before. But maybe that was just because she hadn't met anyone she could trust or confide in until now. There was something about this avian demon that made her feel safe, accepted for who she was.

Tentatively, Octavia nodded in response. "I-I don't know if I'm ready for such a big responsibility," she admitted softly, "but... It might be nice to try." There it was; the small flicker of hope she had been searching for all along. Perhaps, just perhaps, things were finally starting to look up for her.

Taken aback by the suddenness and directness of his statement, Octavia's wings fluttered nervously. A multitude of thoughts raced through her mind; confusion, surprise, and a strange mix of desire she had never felt before. She swallowed hard before responding, her voice soft but steadier than she expected. "A-Alright," she managed to croak out. Her eyes darted between his beak and feathers, unsure of what was happening or what he wanted from her.

Slowly, hesitantly, she lowered herself onto the mossy ground beneath them, spreading her legs slightly as instructed. A shiver ran down her spine as anticipation took root in her belly; a foreign but exhilarating sensation that left her both terrified and incredibly aroused at once. It was then that she realized; perhaps this was more than just finding friendship or distraction here. Perhaps this was her chance for something new, something different, and perhaps even a little bit magical.
