Eliot, having reverted back to her Human form smiled widly as she entwined her fingers with Warren's to squeeze and return his hug. "Well i grew up having to deal with littler sof pups, two children are not that difficult at all."
Jude was sitting in the kitchen munching on a piece of dried meat when Melikki walked in. "Ah, Okasan, have you seen Zell? he's run off again."

"I could know. If moonstone has the power to do it. You'd just have to trust me. and I'm not pushing for a relationship. I want one. I'm not going to try and say otherwise."
And he got up, and walked over to her.
"But you can't even let me touch you without acting like I'll rip you apart. even patting you on the back for doing a good job, or shaking your hand. you act like I'm going to rip your arm off and beat you with it."
A slight frown.
"Am I really that monstrous looking? Do I look so much a beast that you act like that? I noticed you didn't have near that reaction when Cedric and you danced, or when he's around you."
"Even friends touch. they have physical contact. a pat on the back, and hand on the shoulder, a friendly hug or high five."
"That's not a worry yet. when he gets good enough to fool actual animals, then we'll worry. other than that, my biggest worry is him wanting to explore more of the world around him."
A smirk.
"We can't keep him in the fortress forever."

"Yeah that would do just fine." Rusty replied and took hold of the pencil and notebook. "I'll give back once I'm done with it." He made a small nod as he talked as a sign of a thank you.
Rusty then turned to the Oracle who had just offered him some food. Just at the sound of the word eat, he realized that his stomach had been begging for food for a while now. I wonder if she'll have some seaweed is all he could think of. Seaweed was not only is main source of food because of the easy access to it but it was also his favorite food. Over the years he had almost come to forget that any other food existed.
He got up, stretched a little and followed Meilikki to the kitchen.

"You were luckey. I didn't have anyone to grow up with." Still that smile, he wasn't sad about that at all. He watched the kids playing on the floor with the dragons. "I wonder if they felt it when Alaran died? Perhaps we should go visit her grave next."
"It takes alot of effort on my part not to freak out, with Cedric too. You aren't always aroudn when he's around you know, you don't see everything."
"I don't think your monstrous looking. It's just harder with you because I know what you want."
"I'm trying. Isn't that enough?"
Moonstone helped Rusty if he stumbled, but the kid was otherwise okay. He was regaining energy fast with that little potion. He smilled and followed Meilikki inot the kitchen. He rarely said no to her cooking.
Inside the kitchen she put on an apron and began look through cuboards to see what was at hand. "Well Rusty, what do you like to eat?"
She patted jude's head and smiled warmly at him. "Why no Jude, I haven't seen him. I know he was in the enterance hall not long about, but that is about it. Do you want me to send Deidrich to find him for you?"

"Sure you say that now. First it's animals, then people, and then you're in trouble." It was a nifty trait if you could master it really. "Though the random animal picking up and bringing home is worrisome in itself...going to have to start checking his pockets for things when he goes out." Yes because there was nothing like a lizard, or an...oh deadly spider or snake in one's pocket. But a sigh and a smile. "Yes I know, we can't coop him up...that goes badly." Not a chance that she was going to try and coop him up...made young elves flighty. She knew that pesonally now didn't she?
Zykariel shook his head. "Not really." After all, it was just some pinpricks from teeth edges really, the dragon hadn't bit down too hard, more of just clenched its jaw. And a pet at Circa. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to step on your tail." A breif look over to Warren and Eliot before back to his friend, both boys sitting on the stone flooring and being rather well behaved. "We should build a fort."
Fort! That was a wonderful idea wasn't it? And forts could be used for all sorts of things....pirate coves, dragon caves, knight posts, treasure troves, castles...oh the endless possibilities. Then that sly look. "Where we gonna make it?" The answer should of been 'let's go to the nursery and make one' but hey, it was fun to play elsewhere...and someone would clean up after them. Mom and dad couldn't get too mad. Besides, they were expressing their building skills.

Eliot looked at the children before turning to warren's face. "Did you know her well Warren? I only met her briefly myself." She didn't have fond memories of the dragon, she didn't knwo if Eliot would be wanted at the grave site.
Jude sighed. "No thats alright Okasan, thank you. H elooke dup as moonstone and Rusty came in. He dipped his head. "Greetings Moonstone, who is your friend?"

"I don't mean to be like that. I've never been one to hide my emotions. that was my twin..even though we know now it's becuase of a lack of them. And I knwo your trying. It just...bothers me that....he still has a hold, even after death, and there's really nothing I can do to help you break it."
A frustrated sigh.
"It's like watching you get beaten up everyday and not being able to stop it from happening."
A slight grin.
"Let me do that. I know you...the second you pull out something you don't recognize your going to have a panic attack."
hey there were some pretty harmless though dangerous looking small animals. part of thier defense was looking more dangerous.
"So are you feeling better now, not so panicy and guilty?"

"I will not have a panic attack..." Hey now she'd been in the underdark for a good twenty plus years now...she could at least handle some freaky looking pocket sized things, right? Though it would still probably be funny to watch her indeed find something in his pockets she didn't recognize...Ramoth usually killed those kinds of things before she got a good look at them when they were still wandering all over the place. Or Malik squished them. She had never minded it. One less freaky thing to crawl on her while she was trying to get some reverie. "But if you want to investigate the pockets, be my guest." Giving him one of those little grins on hers before a nod. "I suppose...nothing like working off negativity by piercing inanimate objects...sometimes animate ones." The guilt? Well that was going to stick...after all, she was the cause and there was no denying that. But she'd have to learn to set it aside at least.

"Good, want to go back upstairs than, Chev?"
after all who knows what the kids are into by now...or what thier trying to do to warren and eliot.
"And yes, I'll take on the pocket checking duties."
Onyx caught a wif of a scent, and had Aella not been there, probably the most vicious and evil face he coudl make would have formed. But instead, he gave Aella a small grin, and took her hand, and before she could object, gave it a little kiss.
"Well..since we don't need to finish the play..why not go on back home. I have something that needs to be done first, adn then I'll meet you there. I'll bring you some candied apples back if you want."
and then off the roof to another, and moving swift and silent, following the scent, and tryin gvery much to stay downwind of it.

As Rusty stepped in the kitchen he spotted Jude. He stopped and made sure he wasn't in anyone's way then leaned on the wall a bit for support as he stood facing this new person.
He decided to let Moonstone introduce him since the question was directed at the fellow in the first place. He then turned to face Meilikki to answer her pending question. "Seawe-e-d... Ermm.. actually anything will be fine." He thought it'd be a good change to eat something else than seaweed for once.
He was now facing Moonstone hoping he would introduce him. Rusty wasn't the biggest chatter around.

"Might as well, after all...best to spend some time with them before we go off and have our own pirate games, yes?" Ah yes, referring back to the fun that was earlier being had. So then, standing up, pushing her hair back over her shoulders...it was one of those days where she just wanted to hack it off again...and grabbed her bow and quiver which was sitting on the next seat over. "Besides, can't be away too long, they'll escape surpervision and then all kinds of things will go on."

"Let's build it right hjere. We can pull the chairs from the dining room and we can use the books from the library as weights. That way we wont' have to carry things upstairs and stuff. Besides, this was a desert island a little while ago, why not make it a castle now? Rawr wants to play with us anyway." Oh yes, so many ideas scrolling through the little boy's mind. He wiped his hand on his tunic again, ignoring the blood that smeared and then grinned at the coq dragons. "And Circa and Eket can play too! And Miss Eliot and Mr. Warren if they want."
He got a poke for that one. "Fair enough. That's incentive enough to leave each other's things alone." Of course he said he wasn't buying new dishes with his steel but he would. It was a simple matter of taking his steel and buying new dishes. And he'd never know the difference either. He had enough of it after all and she'd make him dinner to make it up to him anyway.

Zykariel rolled over even as his internal clock went off, letting him know it was dark and early and for almost every morning from the time he was old enough to sleep in a bed, the time he got up. So his little eyes popped open and he yawned then kicked blankets off and sat up rubbing his eyes. Malikhai was passed out in peaceful reverie beside him and the tent they had built the night before was still standing. That was an exciting thing.
Pushing himself to his hands and knees, he crawled out of the small opening they had left between two chairs and brushed off his playclothes. Piper had made him change his clothes and had a cleric heal his hand so he was in green instead of orange but playclothes nonetheless. He glanced around and then headed for the stairs, crawling up them in cute childlike fashion before going to Malik and Piper's room. Knocking softly, he waited about five seconds before he pushed open the door and made a beeline for the bed. It didn't take long for him to crawl up and survey teh sleeping bodies, blinking when there were two. Daddy didn't sleep with other people...well except for him, and Zara sometimes but only when he was gone.
Maybe he shouldn't pounce on them like he did on Daddy? So slipping back down off the bed, he walked up the side to where a sleeping Piper had her face turned towards him and a bare blue arm wrapped around pale skin and tilted his head. "Miss Piper?" he whispered before a poke at her bare shoulder. "Miss Piper?"

Piper was quite happy and comfortable, after all after 'spending time in the cabin' with Malik for a good portion of the night she was quite happy to take her reverie and have it for however long she felt like it. But...she was also used to a little elf wanting her attention from time to time at the strangest hours. Though her reveries were restful these days, they were only but so deep so she could pull out of them easily. Thus at the sound of a little voice and a poke she roused a little, shifting against Malik and in his hold, triple colored eyes fluttering open. Though she didn't see the elf she was expecting. Taking hold of the sheet, she kept it at appropriate for children level and propped on an elbow some. "Zykariel? What's the matter?" A check on her internal clock...it was way too early...

Zykariel waited a moment and poked again then watched as Miss Piper stirred from her reverie. He tilted his head at her and rubbed at his eyes, while his tummy made itself known by growling. "It's morning." Then a pause as he waited for her to draw the obvious conclusion. when she stayed silent he continued. "I'm hungry Miss Piper. It's breakfast time." A nod of his head and he laid his little hand on the bed. "My tummy is talking again. Dinner is all gone."
