The cliffs had always brought change.
Whether it had been that bit of inspiration to a camera lens or those small colored bottles she had found a bit back, the cliffs to the northwest of the city had always been a great source of inspiration. The bottles in question had been tied gently in a pouch together, though the girl still didn't understand the reasoning why she had even kept them to this point. Today though wasn't really about the bottles.
She had brought her art supplies today; camera, sketchpad and pastels to hopefully find a bit of inspiration like she had found many a time before. However, inspiration seemed to be in a mischevious mood and it only made the starving artist all the more maddened because of it. So, sketchbook and supplies aside, she pulled out the two bottles she had from their cloth pouch and looked through them in the waning light.
The wind whistled as a gust blew through, lifting a bottle from her outstretched hands. Eyes widening, she leapt for the small container just as the wind dropped its fierce gale. The wiry female then quickly crashed to the ground, both bottles now held even more tightly as she turned and raised her gaze. Even with the dimming light, she could make out a figure, someone young it seemed. She stumbled for a flashlight and turned it in the direction of the young man, illuminating the dulled sky and scenery around them.
"H-Hello?" she managed to get out of her mouth, one hand clasped around the light with the other tightly cradling the bottles.

A chuckled escaped Inge, a clutzy time? He was glad that he didn't have 'clutzy times' like her - he'd constantly be falling off the boat and into the sea, the extent of his clumsiness was the occasional dropped fish, which were wet and normally writhing; attempting to get out of his grasp anyway. However, despite his amusement he moved to her side, making sure that she really was ok.. If she was still clutzy so close to the edge of the cliff it made Inge nervous, he would hate her to topple over the edge if she tripped again.. "So long as you're ok now.. It's a long drop down there." He motioned to the cliff's edge, "And I wouldn't want to see you tripping to a long fall.."
At her mention of his bottle Inge placed a hand to the place it rested at his side. She'd spotted his bottle just as he'd spotted her's. "Uh, yes.. It's a bottle.." He replied, taking it from where he was keeping it and holding it fully visible in the light. Now that they were placed next to each other Inge couldn't help noticing more similarities between the bottles. Not only did her pair have something strange emanating from them but on closer inspection they appeared to be almost exactly the same shape as his and, yes, they had the same internal glimmer.
His mouth formed a small 'o' as these similarities registered fully. Maybe her bottles actually were the same as his and he rushed to find out more.
"Awfully similar aren't they! Where did you find yours?"

Rose looked over the edge and gasped before stepping away a bit. "Yeah...wouldn't want to be taking that drop for sure..." she added, turning back to the boy. "Yeah, I'm alright, but thank you very much for asking." she replied with a bow.
She watched him put his bottle next to hers and looked at the three bottles with interest. His had a sort of rust surrounding the bottle's rim and form, while hers had those transparent wings. Perhaps the bottles did have something in common, like that glitter within it that swirled and twisted like the wind.
"My bottles?" She asked before smiling. "Actually, I found them right here on this very cliff. Or cliff range, I should say." Rose nodded, pointing to a spot near the cliff's edge. "It was a day a lot different then this one, where the wind blew, the sun shown and the bottles sat together, illuminated by everything around them." She let her thoughts move back to that day before she turned back to him and repeated the question he had asked her.
"What about yours? Where did you find your bottle at?" she asked quietly, before holding out a hand. "I'm Rose, by the way."

Taking her hand and shaking it the teen introduced himself; "Inge Lekan. Nice to meet you."
She found them on the cliff? That definitely wasn't similar to how Inge had received his own bottle.. "Sounds so mysterious and magical.." He sighed, picturing the bottles neatly placed on the cliff-top, glittering the in sun and singing in the wind. It sounded like something a bard would describe; mystical and alluring.. "I'm afraid the way that I got this thing isn't so like a fairytale." He winced, glancing at the bottles. Perhaps it could be considered almost fitting - her fantasy winged bottles were deserving of a graceful way of entering someone's possession. But his rusty old thing..? Well, it also seemed about right. "I found mine tucked away in the cupboard, I was just looking for some fishing gear and I stumbled across it..." He tapped a finger on it's side, the aura of rust tingling against his skin.
"It didn't always have this rust stuff." He explained, running a hand absent mindedly through the brown oxidised shroud that surrounded the bottle. "It just suddenly appeared - the insides flashed and... then it got this... rusty mist?" He frowned, recalling the event quite clearly as it had not been long ago at all. He'd been sitting with the bottle, watching it and holding it casually - then totally unprovoked, it'd decided to step up the corrosion power alongside looking slightly different. "Did your bottles always have those wings?" He asked.. Trying to piece together the evidence they had to form some answers.

Rose laughed after shaking his hand and hearing him call it a fairytale. "Actually, it wasn't as glamorous as it sounds. I almost flew off of that cliff trying to get those bottles!" She listened to his words with care nodding and shaking her head when appropriate. His tale was equally fascinating to her, especially the fact that he hadn't almost died trying to claim his bottle!
"Yeah, mine didn't always have this glittering substance through them either really. One day, while I was cleaning out my apartment the sun shone through the windows and then...poof! Instant flowing glitter." She put a finger to her lip. "Well, maybe not poof, but you get the idea." She held out her bottles next to his again and shook her head.
"Well, now that you mention it, the bottles did have wings on them but I really couldn't tell very much at the time. Once the glitter started to swirl though, it was much easier to take a look at them." Rose glanced up at the growing clouds and back down to Inge. "Looks like a storm may be coming in...are you needed somewhere anytime soon?" she looked at him with inquistive eyes. "If you aren't, and don't mind a bit more research with these bottles, I'll treat you to a snack at the local cafe. Plus, who knows...maybe we'll find out a bit more why we have these bottles in the first place."
