To Be a Leanan sidhe
Lets start off with the common myth that has been told time and time again about the Leanan Sidhe. Rather then retype it out I will send you to the myths page to read it.
Now I find this quite true in my real life on some levels. I tend to attract men towards me even without trying. I find myself getting attached to the ones i've been a lover with and I find it VERY hard to get rid of them. I have kept in contact with almost all my lovers and am still friends with almost all of them. Only one I no longer speak with but believe me when I say it was incredibly hard to shake myself of him. I only feed of of my lovers. I will "nibble" on there energy during intimate moments. It's not until I got with my recent mate that I have actually feed of anothers blood. I have cut him and gorged on his blood. I didn't need it but boy do I love the untapped energy that is given freely from my mate. I find myself way to tempted to just take energy that I do not need and I feel a bit bad for hording it.
I don't need the energy it somehow makes me feel empowered when given energy by my mate. Makes me feel as if I have some domanance over them even if it's just this tiny little bit. Just like my mythical counterpart I hate breakups and losing a mate depresses me greatly. I feel as if I cannot function with another. My energy levels go screwy and I become intolerable. I start to pine and search out any other that I can be with to fill the void.
There are little things about my apprance that are unique. After talking to other sidhe's for a brief period I believe these are tied to that part of me. My hair hates to stay one colour when dyed it's a matter of about a week and I have highlights showing through. My eyes are never a plain colour they are always something unique like green with a gold ring, or blue with a goldish ring, that or a hazel hybrid. They do change colour not as often as when I was younger but they do love to do it from time to time to mess with people. I am also good at making myself invisible. Now I don't mean like physically see through but just putting off mellow like vibes so that people just waltz by me without a second glance...had they looked they would have noticed but most don't now i'm not sure that is unique to the Leanan Sidhe side but to all my fae links.
Now there might be more lurking under the surface that I haven't discovered to be quiet honest most of the urges I have conflict with the other type of Fae that I am which is a Dryad, and yes I will post a topic like this on the other type as well. I have yet to discover everything that makes myself tick, I very rarely let this side of me come out because it is quite dark and can take on a life of it's own. I don't always have control over the urges or things that i'd like to do. So I keep it tucked away and try not to let it out if possible until I can completely understand myself. I guess you can say i'm still on my journey of discovery.
