 You have come to the Notebook of Xee and Jaser. Please do not post unless you have their permission.
About Dust Storms A dust storm is a meteorological phenomenon common on the Great Plains of North America, the desert southwest of the United States, before the summer monsoon in Arabia, in the eastern Mediterranean, and in Cyprus, the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, the Taklamakan Desert of northwest China, the Sahara Desert of northern Africa, the Thar Desert of India, and other arid and semi-arid regions. Such a storm is usually the result of convection currents created by intense heating of the ground. The air over the sand becomes hot, and rises. This creates differences in air pressure and temperature, and the cooler winds begin to rush in. The wind is strong enough to move dunes, and it often interferes with travel, sometimes obliterating roads in flat, dry regions. Severe dust storms can reduce visibility to zero, making travel impossible, and can blow away valuable topsoil, while depositing soil in places where it may not be wanted. Drought and wind contribute to the emergence of dust storms, as do poor farming and grazing practices. The dust picked up in such a storm can be carried thousands of kilometers: Sahara dust storms influence plankton growth in the western Atlantic Ocean and, according to some scientists, are an important source of scarce minerals for the plants of the Amazon rainforest.
Please keep it warm and dry.

Home
Xee's house is rather small but she couldn't possible mind and it doesn't even seem that she notices. Her kitchen, bathroom, living room, and two small bedrooms one which has been converted are her pride and joy.
It is the request that Xee keep this little one in an area that is dry and lacking rain. Being from a place that is hot and known for its rather unusual weather Xee has a feeling the set up that she has in a room is perfect.
Unlike other who like it etremely cool, Xee is actually the opposite in nature being from a valley/ dessert climate, it is common to find her in the heat even when it is too hot for others. She had designed a room in the back of her living space that is designated for creatures of a nature that she has become accustom too.
In the room sits a sandy set up for lizards, tarantulas, cacti, and other such animals. Though this is an oddity she does have other animals that come at random looking for a hand out or two. She is overly caring about anyone or any creature that has been abandon.

The Arrival! Noctryn Directed at Xenostatica - Noctryn leads the puff towards you. "Now be a good puff cause I don't want to babysit you anymore!" she says. Quickly putting her arms around it and giving it a squeeze she looks at you and says, "I'm not crying, I'm melting. There's a difference."
Sniffing, she dissipates. The dust storm Wethkin is left, staring at you... 
Xee smiled at how Noctryn reacted to leaving the small puff. She left too quickly for her to thank Noctryn for bringing him to her. In fact, she left the puff staring at Xee in a strange curious manner.
"Well, um...Hello Jaser, it's really nice to finally meet you," she was getting a little nervous as the puff grinned at her with all his teeth showing and her holding her hand out to him. "I'm Xee, I hope that we can be the best of friends and I can take great care of you..."
He seemed skeetish as he wiggle up her arm. He seemd to be sweet, though that is not the disposition that Xee was getting from him, there was something mischief in his little eyes. It was like he was plotting something and he would wait a moment to execute his plans.

Xee was walking around the house when she heard a rather loud screech noise come from the dessert room. She had made a play pin for Jaser to crawl in and around in as she would come check on him if anything sounded weird on his baby monitor, but this was loud enough that she didn't need the monitor.
"What, what is wrong?" she rushed in to find the little one sitting in the middle of his play pin, but she found there was not okay. She was watching as the little puff sucked on one of her roadrunner. The poor roadrunner was screeching as the the feathers of the tail was pulled out of his tail and being knawed on. "Jaser?! You need to put it down and let it be happy."
Jaser looked at her with feathers hanging out of his mouth. He slowly opened up and let them fall on the ground, he then just blinked at Xee curious to what she would do.
"You need to learn that is a no no!" Xee picked up Jaser and walked over to the terrorfied roadrunner that now was quivering in the corner. Xee pulled out some seed and held it out for the bird but had Jaser in the other hand. It took a moment but the bird pecked slowly watching the puff. As the bird ate the puff would open his mouth to grab at the bird and Xee would pull him away which made him cry.
He would cry and Xee would put him near the bird, if he opened his mouth Xee would agian pull him away. When the bird finished it walked off. She put Jaser down and watched as he crawled toward the bird but was soon distracted the lizard that ran by and he crawled after that. The lizard lost its tail in fear and rushed off leaving the wiggling piece there. Jaser in curiosity scooped it into his mouth.
"No, no Jasper?!" Xee fingered his mouth opened and pulled out the still wiggling tail. Ugh, she thought as she threw it down. She turned the puff around and popped him softly on the end, "We don't put stuff in our mouth that we don't know what it is!" The puffs eyes swelt up and he cried loud.
Xee put him back in his pin and waited for him to stop crying which took some time. He soon stopped realizing that she wouldn't pick him up when he cried, his eyes still watery he looked at her, "I didn't think you could cry that much!" She wiped his tears away in fear they would damage his delicate nature and tempature. "Now we know not to eat live creatures don't we!" he just blinked at her as she lectured him. "They are our friends and we want to take care of them as they keep this place clean and health for you to live in my puff. We thank them as they help keep you safe!" She pushed gently on the spot where she thought his nose might be and smiled as he grinned back at her, "You are going to cause havic here aren't you!" He just blinked at her.

Xee was sitting next to Jaser in the desert room, this was where she now spent most of her time. She would urge the devious little puff not to eat other things and creatures while trying to get him to make some kind of noise to allow her to know about him.
He seemed to mutter to himself but it was rather low and she was not really able to identify what it was that the little one was so intent on keeping to himself. He would cause a little dust storm when he rushed around now appearing to be a little quicker and harder to catch.
She sat in the heat remind of home and would grin as the little puff would come up to try and nibble her as he would soon rush off at the sudden sound of her, "No!".
He would giggle and skeeter off and slip or bury himself in the sand. Xee had discovered that he liked playing hide-n-seek. He would bury or crawl into a bush and Xee would try and find him. Usually he won as he was the same color as the sand. He would skeeter and move as she looked for him, but would make slight noises such as sounds of the wind to give Xee a clue.
It wasn't till she was yelling out, "Oh where, oh where is my little puff gone. Oh where oh where could he be!?"
It was that little song that suddenly was sung back though it sounded more like, "ohwah, re, poof or be!" It wasn't the complete song and it was missing a few words, if any of those were words, but Xee knew it was Jaser. She was overly excited and quickly started scouting for him.
"Boo!" Jaser said as he jumped up from the sand, making a small dust ball in the air.
"Jaser?!" Xee went down and picked him up and cuddled him.
Jaser nipped Xee and made her put him down, he eyed her cautiously and then grinned. He crawled back into her arms and sat quietly as she talked to him.
"This is exciting I did not think you would learn yet to make the sounds?! I am quite sure that if we keep at this you will sooner or later master this language, but for now let's go see outside and take a walk to the shop."
She was quite proud that he was a little more trusting though he did have a habit of nesting in her hair or biting her when he was annoyed. He also nipped her when she gave him affection. but Xee was getting a little use to it, if this continued then she wouldnt mind at all.

Jaser sat content on Xee lap as she sat outside in the grass. It was a lazy, hot day in the summer, there was nothing to do but enjoy it.
She sneezed every now and then and it would make Jaser skeeter and scurry back and forth on her in a panic. He seemed to be sensitive to extremely uncommon sounds. Sneezing, coughing and such sounds of be sick often caused him to get into a diz.
There was a sound that was loud, sounding of two trash cans falling over. Jaser crawled into Xee hair and shook as he didn't know what else to do. "Do da com four ta ki?" he looked around and moved in her hair, tangling himself so much that he struggled to loosen his legs.
"Yes, I think so, it might be a little shower," Xee said getting up and heading to the house.
It started drizzling and Jaser screamed causing Xee to run quicker inside. She spend the next thiry minutes untangling Jaser from her hair. He wouldn't let go once he managed free though. He stayed plastered on her head.
"Don't be silly Jaser it was rain, you know water. It just comes from the sky," she was trying to figure a good way to explain to him what rain was.
"It bad. no right," Jaser seemed to be whispering.
"No, no it is good, just like you are good," Xee was still struggling to pull him off, "We need it for the grass, treas, animals, and everything else. You don't really need it because you are a dust storm so staying dry is important. You need to be able to spin and such like a tornado...hmm. It seems I should explain more to you but you are so young."
"I no tiny," Jaser said in as he stood on all his legs holding himself high.
"No, no, not tiny, you are young," she smiled, "You're going to learn all about what you can do and so will I." She took that time to grab him and pull him down with her, "Maybe we can go to the shop and see if anyone can help us. After the rain stops." She noticed him looking out the windo at the water that was falling out of the sky.

Xee was not really bothered that Jaser was now making noises and crashing around, it was his habit of wanting to put everything in his mouth that got to her. She would have to take him everywhere with her as if she left him alone for a moment as soon as she came back there was a guarntee that he had something in his mouth. It didn't seem to matter what it was: alive, dead, animal, insect, clothing, plants, or every now and then he would try to fit a whole pot in his mouth.
Even with that down side she was excited that he was talking. It really could be called talking as he seemed to mimic a sound back to someone when they spoke, but he was getting it. She was teaching him the alphabet, but all he could make was some sounds like the letters for sure. One could tell what he was saying if they listened closely. He associated everything by sight so Xee had to make him flash cards to words. Though there was one word that he needs no stressing to understand, as he heard it often was NO. He had learnt that if Xee said that he was in trouble. He would scrunch up and mumble as Xee would pick him up and move him away from the thing that he had been after.
It was not uncommon for him to try something more then twice to see what Xee's reaction to it was. He tested her limits and tried new things to see what he could and couldn't do. He was curious as all little puffs were though Xee wondered if this was how they all where together or was he exceptionally curious with his habit of experiencing everything with his mouth.
There was something that Xee was curious about that made her sit and watch him for hours about. He seemed to move in the sand and when he did so instead of it moving aside as it does when someone steps on it, it seems to whirl around him a little. It was like a dust cold, of course, she knew he was a dust storm but it was like he could make small ones with his motion. This was interesting and she would have to ask someone about it.

Xee carried the little puff with her as she did her casual shopping at the farmer's market. She enjoyed the smell of fresh vegetables and fruits. She want Jaser to enjoy the outside as well, having him couped up in the house and limiting him to the yard would not be the way to get him to interact with others.
Jaser on the other hand seemed more intent on eating Xee's hand that was holding him. He knawed on her fingers even with their protest he kept his attention on getting them in his mouth.
Xee, with one hand, examined a tomato as Jaser blinked and stared at the farmer behind the stand who was also returning the looks. With a weed sticking out he looked over at Xee, "That's one mean mutt you got there!"
Xee looked at the man puzzled, "Mean mutt?" she looked down around her.
"I mean that thing ya got ther an that hand of yars," he said as he turned and spat on the ground near him.
"This isn't a dog, this is Jaser, his a weather puff," Xee smiled softly and pat Jaser with her other hand that had held a tomato a moment before.
"A we'her poof? What the heck?" The man scratched his head.
"Don't worry about it, this cute here is on my care, if he isn't doing anything, you don't need to bother him," she walked away. She was not fond of the idea that the man had called Jaser a mutt, he in no manner looked like a mutt. He was kind of like a tick or dust mite.

Xee struggled with the trash bag that Jaser decided that he should have as a snack. She was afraid of it ripping and the garbage going everywhere. This was his plan of course, he didn't want to the bag he wanted what was inside. She had provened him from getting it during the times that they made trash, he had figured out that when she took it out it was vunerable and he could get to the treasure inside.
This looked to be a battle that neither of them would win.

Xee glanced over her newprint pad. "Jaser, quite eating the fake fruit! Stay on the pedistual!" She would move her artist's stand and move toward Jaser, that is when he would go back to his position and grin evilly at her as he would pose again.
"Oh you!" she would poke him softly and return to the drawing. He would bat his eyes sweetly as she continued the doodles.
This was suppose to be a figure study but he was not the exact figure that she was needing but he wouold do as the model was scared off by Jaser's rather sharp and shining teeth. He had grinned a little too much for her which caused her to freak and then she would move or shift from her position. This was not what she was there for and such and such, so Xee let her go. It was a problem for Jaser, Xee figured as he tended to be rather annoyed with strangers and models weere the strangest of the bunch to her.
Jaser wiggled each leg tired but happy as Xee had his attention and she would pay heed to anything she wanted as long as he was rewarded. That was the deal. He wiggled front leg mimicing a wave at Xee. She had taken him out to some of the garden out at the park, maybe they would do more if she finished what it was she was doing with the things and marks she made with the stuff in her hand.

((
**squeals** Sorry I should have been posting as much as possible when I was not sick... sorry for that. I will make that up in this post if I can.)))
Xee struggled to carry the youngin' but with his terrible temper he would often n** a finger and cause Xee to almost free him. He had become an extreme handful as he learned that Xee would be so busy. He had come to say little things now. It took a month of starting but Jaser was able to sing the alphabet and say small sentences. He seemed to do many thing when Xee wasn't around, but she figured that was normal now. He had stopped trying to eat everything now, but sometimes he had to just stick it in his mouth.
"Jaser, please we have to hurry to the gallery," Xee shifted the portfolio of work from one shoulder to the other while trying not to let the little duststorm loose on all around her.
"Please, please please," his little legs stretched out forward for him to latch to something as a way to pull away from Xee.
"No, Jaser. You knew that we had to do this, we'll get something to snack on if you are on your best behavior," Xee strutted passed the people staring at her as if she was mad. "This gallery might actually take my work instead of using it as something that is fireplace fuel," she sighed at the comment.
"Good, Good, you good at it, " Jaser tried hard to form a comment to stop the pain that appeared but in fustration of her, he resorted to a bite on her thumb.
Xee realised that he was trying his hardest to help her understand. She smiled hard at him and with her right hand tickled him enough to get him to let go. "You're right, patience and work that is what will get us ahead. Cause this is all because of you," she smiled as they had managed to get to the gallery. "This is it..." She took a deep breath and laughed softly as they headed in.
