[Aphrodite Bellamont]

It's Aphrodite, Chienne!

Aphrodite walked out of the building into the day. Today wasn't really warm but it wasn't really cold either. Most people were inside, studying or something. Of course she wasn't, she'd study most of yesterday and wasn't going to waste today. She wanted to go see Ares. He didn't really like the busy building so he only came in when he had too.

Aphrodite slowly reached the steps of the Owlery. She looked up to the top of the building. It was a long way up there but whatever, she had nothing better to do. She took the first step making sure it was slick or anything. She started up the steps, taking her sweet time.

She looked around the Owlery. There were so many owls! Ares was easy to spot. He was sitting on the window sill, staring at her with those bright orange eyes. Aphrodite walked toward him. She sat on the sill next to him. "Hello Ares. Have you made an owl friends?" She said to him as she petted the feathers on the back of his head.

She looked down at his feet. He was on a tan colored envelope. It had 'To My RhiRhi.' As soon as she read that she knew who it was from. She pulled the envelope from under the bird. He flew up and landed on her shoulder, careful not to dig his talons into her flesh. She quickly pulled out the letter and read it. Tristan was coming! She was so happy. She loved Tristan more than anything, except Riker that is. Her brothers were amazing and they were coming here.

She was in a great mood. At least she'd have people to talk to. She had been so excited to meet new people these year, but she hadn't met one. Not one! It was sad. She hoped someone else had the urge to visit an owl. That would be great.
