Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mori dragged the big box into the room she and Loki had been staying with the egg. Slightly cursing to herself about how bothersom the box was to move

Loki watched as Mori dragged the box. He would have been more willing to help if it wasn't for the little one at his feet.

Eir looked in awe as she saw her 'mommy' dragging something big, really big.

Mori twitched a little as she saw Eir sitting with Loki "Ahh, I see you decided to join us today. Did you have fun hatching?" As she plopped he box onto the bed. The box then bouncing on the bed as if it were playing

Loki walked over to help Mori unpack everything, though he had no idea as to what he was supposed to be doing.

Eir looked at Mori with a blank look of interest. "Hatching?"

Mori laughed a little "Well, you used to be an egg. Or do you not remember? Oh well, it doesnt matter." She took the instructions from the opened box. She looked at all the pictures and gave the faintest smile "Well, it shouldnt be too hard."

Loki laughed lightly. "I hope not..." He looked at all the seemingly random peices, not being able to imagine how it could be a crib. "I hope you're better at this stuff than I'm going to be."

Eir continued to look at Mori. "What is egg?"

Mori nodded slightly "Yeah...me too.... We just have to make sure not to loose any screws or the tiny peices." She set the directions down and carefully opened the bag of screws. "Luckily Shippo lent us a screwdriver too." She then looked over at Eir "Uhhh, its round and what chickens lay."

Loki picked up the screwdriver and went about making sure all of the bolts and nuts were separated to that they would be easier to find. He then grabbed a peice of wood and looked at the diagram.

Eir cocked her head again. "Me from chicken? What chicken?"

Mori paused as she looked over Loki's shoulder at the directions. Holding her own peice of wood. "Uhhh.....The bravest chicken around. Thats why its not here to help us right now, because its off fighting dragons and rescuing princess. Protecting the land so its little girl can sleep safely at night. And to make sure you sleep extra safe, we're building this crib."

Loki placed some wood together as he began to make what appeared to be the framework of the crib.

Eir's face lit up and she giggled. "Really?

Morri nodded at the small kit, wood still in her hand "Mhm. I believe last I heard it had just saved Lady Alanna from the Beast of Toraggen. It almost lost its arm if it wernt for your da with her, helping to save us all. He fixed her right up." She saw where the piece in her hand went to as Loki pieced his parts together and placed it in. After screwing it tight, she gave a small smile to Loki, hoping he would forgive her for telling such a tall tale

Loki looked over at Eir, and felt his face flush as he saw her rare smile. He looked back down at the piece he was working on with a small one of his own.

Eir laughed and lay down contentedly. "Cool!"

Mori was glad the little kit believed her. "Thats why they cant be here right now. But we are going t be your mommy and daddy now. ....I dont know if you will ever see your birth parents, since protecting a kingdom is a lot of work. THough I'm sure if you wish hard, they will send a postcard of their travels and how much they miss you...." MOri realized how deep she was getting with her story. Even if she had to write a postcard every week for the rest of her life, she'd make that little kit happy and like her birth parents. She went back to concentrating on the crib, glad that it was going well. She looked for the screwdriver and saw loki had it. So she sat paticently till he finished.

Loki felt himself growing happier as he heard Mori weave her tale. He could tell that making his sister happy was first on her mind as it was on his, and he was growing confident that she would be. He handed Mori the screwdriver as he had a feeling she needed it.

Eir giggled happily again as she let Mori's story form pictures in her mind. "Okay!"

Mori took it from him softly as he handed it to her. She screwed in one of the walls and held up another for him to screw in "Uhhh... Eir, why dont you go ask Shippo for some markers and paper and you can draw us a picture of your chicken mum fighting dragons and going on adventures? I'm sure its boring just watching us...."

Mori walked through the door of her house, looking for Loki and her new teen.

Loki sat on the ground, playing with his little sister.

Eir laughed as she ran around her brother, whom she considered her father.

Mori walked into their room and smiled. It seemed it was easyer to smile now that she had Loki and Eir. They still wernt the biggest smiles, but bigger then they had once been. She snuck up behind Loki and jumped on him "Gotcha! Eir! Quick, tickle him while I've got him pinned!"

Loki's ear twitched as he looked over at the sound he heard, blinded by the light entering the room to be able to tell who it was at first. He laughed some and playfully wiggled a little under her paws.

Eir smiled as Mori came in and waved at her. She laughed and was obidient in following what her "mother" said to do. "Sure thing!" She growled lightly and pounced on top of Loki, who squirmed in responce.

Mori gave a tiny laugh, this also was softer in its tone then it used to be. "Good girl! And now he shall never escape!" She tried to do her pretend evil lagh "BWahahaha."

Just then a little head poked into the doorway "Someone being attacked in here o3o?" She looked at Loki ad gasped "I shall save you!!" She ran in and poked Eir wih her nose "I shall rescue you!"

Loki pretended to struggle. "Oh no! Anything but that!" He laughed a little until he heard someone come in. He once again looked over to no avail at the blinding white light from outside the room, and saw nothing. His ear twitched as he felt someone by him.

Eir strained to see out the door, a blurry shape a little smaller than herself visable to her. She cocked her head at first, but smiled as she came closer and she could see her more clearly. "Oh, Hello!" She said as she was poked. "Rescue me? From what?"

Mori laughed "Hello Parisa. We were just torturing Loki with the tickle bug."

Parisa smiled at Eir "Not chu, the big red female ^_^. Juu were attacking her D=!" She then looked at Mori confusedly "Tickle...bug?" She looked around the room worriedly, not likeing crawly bugs.

Loki sweatdropped at the word. "Fe...male...?;"

Eir cocked her head. "That's not a female. That's my dad!" She hopped off of Loki and followed after her best she could. "What'cha looking for?"

Parisa cocked her head to the side "Nu-uh, my daddy is a lot bigger. And Mori and mommy are female. and the red one is the size of them, so she must be a fem ^__^!" "And you said there was a buggy in the room, so I'm looking for it so I can squish it! I dont like crawly buggies." Ad she scrunched her nose.

Mori tried to hide a giggle at the little kits explination of why she thought Loki was a female. She smiled over at Loki "Well, she does have a point, you are the same size as me."

Eir blinked as Parisa's explanation was good. She looked over at Loki, almost asking if he really is a girl. She looked back at Parisa. "I can help you find it!"

Loki sweatdroppped even more and tried to sit up. "That still doen't mean I'm a female. And if she were older I'd have proof." He blinked as he said that. "But... not proof in a dirty way or anything." He lightly blushed and looked away.

Mori tousled Lokis hair lovingly "Ahhh, such an aqward little minion. How adorable ^_^." She chuckled again. "Parisa, Uhm, your da's an Elder. That meas that he has so much knowledge and love3 that he has grown more then Loki and me. There are also female Elders."

Parisa glanced at Loki and blinked "....Des that mean the redone is stupid o3o??" She then looked at Mori "How come juu not an elwrar then? I know juu is smart ^_^." She then looked over at Eir "Yaay! We can look for the tickle bug together then! Do you know what it looks like?"

Loki looked up at Mori and pouted just slightly, still blushing. "Should I feel complemented at that or insulted?" He looked again at Parisa, everything this kit was saying about him seemed to offend him, even when he tried to use her age as the reason she was acting like that he still felt annoyed.

Eir shook her head at Parisa. "No, he's not stupid! He's just not the smartest." She smiled, unaware how what she said could be taken wrongly, before shrugging. "I dunno... Just like any old bug I think."

Mori sighed a little and kissed the side of Lokis cheek "Ahh, kits. See, isnt it nice that Eir is such a good little girl?" She gave a little wink to Eir then went back to talking to Parisa "The gods have gifted your Da with such growth. It is not yet Loki and mine's turn yet. If the gods decide to grace us as they have with your Da, then we will gladly accept it. But that doesnt mean Loki isnt smart. The gods just havent gotten around to him yet." For the frst time, Mori gave a warm smile to Loki, almost lovingly.

Parisa tried to listen. It all sounded so complicated "Ah... Sorry the gods havent graced you yet mister." She got distracted by a bug on the window and yelled "TICKLE BUG!!" And pointed to the window so Eir would see it.

Loki's face couldn't have been redder at the kiss of the cheek. After this long of raising Eir together, such motions of affection were not rare, but they never ceased to warm him up. Just as Mori's ability to talk her way out of a problem never ceased to amaze him. He smiled at the young kit. "It's okay. If my time comes, it comes."

Eir jumped lightly, and stared at the square that she saw at the window. "I odon't see a bug..." She said sas she walked closer. Then she saw and and screamed. "Tickle Bug!"

Mori laughed at his face and put her arm through his "Though, he isnt allowed to grow without me" she winked at him "God or not, hes stickin with me."

Parisa's jaw dropped a little in awe. "Wow Mori!!! You can stop the gods?!?"

Mori's mouth curved up "If it separates me from Loki, it aint happenin. God or not, I'll stand by him. Even if he is just my precious minion."

Parisa was then distracted by the srceam "ZHOMYGOSH!!!!" She screamed and slapped the window. Though the bug as on the other side so it did nothing to the bug "No tickling in here from you mister bug!"

Loki blinked, but didn't figth it when they linked arms. He laughed some. "Yeah, a boss and her minion can stop just about anything." But that's all they were, and all they were going to be. Boss and minion. No affections there, there didn't need to be. That's how the two of them would forever remain, right?

Eir made a face and stuck her tounge out at the bug as it seemed to mock them. "No coming inside tickle bug! You're not allowed as of now!" She emphasised the word now with a small stomp, only to get a slight look from Loki that said don't do that. Sme put on an awkward smile. "Sorry."

Mori hid a chuckle with her paw "You knooow Parisa, the door is open, so maybe another tickle bug came in." She stalked over to her and said "Hmmm, maybe like right.....HERE!" She pounced the small kit gently and tickled her.

Parisa laughed hard "Eir! Help me! Mori is attcking with the tickle bug!"

Loki laughed at the return of the tickle bug, and quietly snuck up on his sister.

Eir stared for a moment. "Oh, okay!" She started to run towards Parisa to help her.

Loki grabbed his sister. "There's another tickle bug right here!" He said with a mischevious gleme in his eye that he could have only gotten from his mother, and he began to tickle Eir.

Eir wiggled and kicked and squealed as Loki tickled her. "Ah! Loki is attacking with a tickle bug too! Someone should help!"

Parisa was laughing so hard, but she tried to crawl over to Eir and help her "EIIIR!!!!" Laughing, she gripped Eirs hand and hung on for dear life

Mori laughed, a kinder laugh that only echoed her old cynical laugh now. "Oh dear me, what ever shall we do! I keep trying to get the bug off, but it keeps crawling over you" Her finger crawling over Parisa to tickle her.

Eir squealed with laughter as she reached out. "P-PARISA!" She laughed out as she grabbed her hand tightly.

Mori lifted up Parisa, herself laying on her back now. "Oh! Maybe I should just Shake it off. If tickling isnt working." Mori wiggled her in the air a little then threw her out of her paws a few inches. Just enough so Parisa could feel the air, but still be able to catch her.

Parisa had to let go when Mori layed on her back. She squeeled happily HO no Mori! Get it off get it off!" She squeeked at being flown in the air, a huge smile on her face.

Loki laughed with Eir, not hardly being able to continue with this little game anymore. He continued to tickle Eir a little. "I think I've almost got it."

Eir pulled her hand in as Parisa let go, before looking up at her brother. "Can Mori" she laughed some before continuing. "Get mine off?"

Loki nodded as he let of of Eir long enough for her to scramble over to Mori.

Mori gave a fake yelp of surprise. "Rawwwr, I can scare yours off" Her grin turning mischevious and her eyes a little wicked. "Or I can just try and shake yours off too! Umph, lets see if I can do this >3<" She set Parisa on one of her palms and picked Eir up with the other. Hoping her arms were strong enough, she began to toss them up in the air, catching them in her palm "What do you think Eir, you think that baggu will let go any time soon?" And laughed.

Parisa once again took Eirs paw, though it was hard to hang on when one was in a paw and the other in the air. "Wheeeehehehe!!!!" Looking over at Eir and smiling widly "eir, will you be my new friend ^__^??"

Loki sat up as he watched Mori with the kits, he couldn't beleive that at one time she said she wasn't good with them, or that she wasn't very good with namrah in particular. She just seemed so wonderful at everything she tried. though he may not have realised it, his crush on Mori was very much noticable to everyone, save for himself.

Eir giggled as her "mama" picked her up and began to shake off her tickle bug. She grabbed onto Parisa's paw and smiled at her. "Only if you'll be mine!"

Parisa giggled "Siiiilly!" she had to say it longer for her laugh would have cut it off compleatly if she hadent "How can I want you to be my friend and not want to be yours?" And squeezed her paw a little to prove she wasnt going to let go of her paw, our their new found friendship.

Mori smiled at the to kits. She was glad Eir was making a friend, and thought each kit had made a good dicision choosing the other. She looked over to Loki to see if he was having fun too. She tilted her head a little though, as much as the floor would permit her. "Is something wrong? You have a weird look on your face...."

Loki shook his head. "Nothing is wrong. Actually, everything is the most right as it's ever been." He was so happy at this moment.

Eir beamed as she continued to grab onto Parisa's paw. "Yay! Eir is happy!" She really was, asd she was so lucky, as Loki knew, to have been raised by him and not their mother.

Mori smiled at Loki. Shed hate it if there was something he wasnt happy with. She let the kits fall down to her chest lightly "Oomph, haha, okay you too, I think those bugs are off now. But they might come back!" She grinned "Especially in here, there seems to be a ton in here." Her grin a little devilishly.

Eir gasped as her breath had run out from giggling "Parisa is happy too!" She snuggled into Eir a little as they were on Mori's chest. Happy to feel the warmth. Her eyes went wide as she heard of more "Oh no! I dont think I can take any more tickle bugs! Eir we gotta get outta here!" She gave a last snuggle to Eir then ran out the room, stopping to check if Eir was behind her before rushing down the stairs.

Mori called after them "Dont go out of site from the house! And dont go too deep in the water!!" :And for gosh sakes young one, dont run down the stairs!" She gave a slight chuckle as she shook her head at Parisa.

Eir snuggled into Mori's chest for the moment that she lay there, feeling whole and loved by her little mismatched family. Her ears twitched at mention of the tickle bugs. "Oh no!" She crawled off and waved. "By Mori! Bye Loki!" She ran after Parisa, yelling back a distant "Okay!" At all of Mori's instructions.

Loki waved goodbye to the kits as they left. "And don't get into the fridge and spoil your suppers!" He chuckled to himself before looking over and smiling at Mori. He walked over and sat down by her.

Mori took a deep breath and chuckled again "You know, I hadent even thought of that." Laughing she explained "Probably because after I moved in here, I I did it all the time. Though we did have nearly as good food back them." Talking about how the house always seemd to be full of delicious snacks since Shani had moved in. She absentmindedly rolled over and snuggled his leg, she had worn herself out entertaining Parisa and Eir.

Parisa ran down the stairs and stopped right in time to be able to open the door and not run into it. She flung it open and dived into a mud puddle "Yay!" She rested in the puddle and let it soak into her fur happily replenishing her sillky fur.

Loki laughed lightly, but with a dark air to it. "I never really got snacks, I always had to stay by mother. When I was allowed to eat, it didn't matter what it was, as I was always hungry." He looked down at her with a serene face, a calm look that could only be gained through knowing how fortunate you were to have what you did. Without even realising it he reached down and lightly stroked the top of her head.

Eir was careful as she slowly went down the stairs, her vision often made her clumsy. After nearly walking into the door she stood at the doorway and looked at the brown blob that was Parisa. She cocked her head to the side.

Mori opend her eyes, a little saddness to her face as she knew the feeling of not having something you desired as a child. It was why they had promiced themselves they would make Eir's childhood wonderful. Her eyes grew surpried as he touched her head. She froze for a second, then realized she liked the feeling and nuzzled her head deeper into his paw. She took a deep breath and smiled "I...I think I'm strong enough to sit up now..." She paused as she sat up "But I'll have to lean against you, I hope you dont mind." As her body leaned against his, not even waiting for his responce. Not wanting him to refuse.

Parisa looked over to Eir and gave a smile like 'yeah, I know I'm weird^^;;'. "Momma says mud is good for your skin.. has a lot of nu-nu...nutriants in it." She gigled. "Whatever those are." She layed on her back and started to make a mud angle as she looked at Eir "But it makes my fur really silky, and its almost the only time my sister will play with me ^__^"

Loki's smile grew softer and warmed as he stroked her head. He pulled his hand back as she spoke, blushing lightly. "O-Okay." His mouth open to reply to her, his face broke out in a small blush as she leaned on him and his ear twitched. "S-sure..."

Eir stared at the brown mass that was mud. "Loki-dad says not to get in the mud because it makes my fur dirty and that can make me sick." She cocked her head to the other side. "You have siblings? I don't have any siblings. Just Loki-dad and Mori-mommy."

Parisa looked at her confused "Really? Laylah drags me in all the time and I seem to be okay ^^;;." She tilted her head again "How come you dont just say mommy and daddy?"

Mori sighed, she was happy and learning to show it. Before, when she was a kit in the forest, you could never show feeling in less it was anger or toughness. Othwise you'de be killed by whatever was bigger then you. "Loki?.....You know how we stay together because of Eir?" She took another breath "Well....I think I'd stay with you even if we didnt have Eir." And tilted her head to look at him.

Eir shiften uncomfortably and looked down. "Cause they're not my real mommy and daddy... I don't know who they are... Loki-dad and Mori-mommy sort of adopted me."

Loki smiled to himself. It was almost unimaginable that two namrah, both with twisted childhoods remarkably alike, could come together and make the other so happy. At least, he thought she was happy. He didn't know what he would do if she wasn't and it was because of him. "Yeah... I'm really thank-" He didn't have time to finish his sentence before she cut him off. He blinked and looked at her, the blush which had disappeared spreading scross his face once more.

Mori hadent notticed how close her face was to hers when she had gone to look at him. Their lips touched in a warm embrace as her heart pounded when she realized what as hapening. Before she could control herserf, she pushed more into the kiss so her lips pressed hard against hers.

Parisa stared at her trying to understand "Hmmm, well, you dun really look look that Loki guy cause he is mostly red and you are mostly yellow." She paused thinking. "And I know Mori is supposed to have been here for a very long time." Not realizing her words might hurt Eir before she spoke them. "....But I'm really glad they found you!" She said and pounced out of the puddle and onto her new best friend.

Loki's eyes widened as their lips touched, an accident that he couldn't have wished less of. He could feel his heartbeat growing faster, and a lone bead of sweat fell down the side of his face. His eyes squinted together as more pressure was placed onto them, and he tilted his head to the side as he returned it.

Eir was beginning to wish to go somewhere else. The topic of families and parents tended to be a sore subject for her. It saddened her, as she didn't have a real one. Sure, she had Loki and Mori and they were great, but they weren't the same. It just wasn't the same. She took a step back as Parisa came closer, her eyes slightly wide half out of shock that she had appeared out of seemingly nowhere, and half out of the shock that she had mud on her now.

Mori almost exploded with happyness when she felt him p-ress his lips to hers in return. A small tear rolling out of her eye as they closed, a little moan of happyness, before it exploded her compleatly. And she was glad the kits had not been here for such a moment.

Parisa grinned foolishly as she had realized she had gotten mud on her "I'm so sorry Eir! I wanted to give you a hug cause you looked sad T__T." She then came up with an idea "We can go to the lake and you can rinse off 8D"

Loki felt himself smiling as they kissed, what seemed to him to be the most wonderful moment of his life. Not even hardly controlling hsi body, he felt a soft growl from the back of his throat. With a small gasp he pulled ever so softly away. And stayed like that a few moments before carefully opening his eyes.

Eir folded her ears down. "I-It's okay." She could feel ehrself on the verge of tears at the thought of disobaying Loki. She shook her head. "Th-they said not to go away form the house."

Mori's voice was soft, almost pleading "Dont stop...." tacking a hold of one of his paws.

"Oh! Its okay!" Parisa smiled. "Its behind the house. you can even still see Aze's and Elle's house ^__^." And started to run to the back

Loki looked down, a little away from Mori. "W-what if the kits come back?" Truthfully he was a little scared, he'd never had a kiss before, and this was the first time for the two of them to be holding paws.

Eir pouted and hesitated before following after Parisa. If she went anywhere farther than just behind the house, she wouldn't follow.

Parisa stopped at the end of the house before the back started and pointed "See, its right there. Not even 200 feet away ^_^." she skipped to the lake and washed off her paws. She was used to coming here by now.

Mori smiled foxily "we can always lock the door...." She felt hot all over her body. And as if she had an itch she couldnt scratch in less he held her in his arms.

Eir looked back at the house, still feeling like she was being disobidient, before scurrying over after Parisa and washing off her paws.

Loki laughed lightly, half out of disbeleif and half out of pure shock about what she was implying. He pretended to shrug as if he didn't care. "If you want"

Mori's eyes shot up to his, looking as it there was fire in them. Her smile wickedly playful "Oh, I want. But I wont do anything my minion doesnt want me to do." Edging a little closer to the door. As if even he refused, she would get what she wanted.

Loki's ears shot straight up and he awkwardly smiled at her look. "I-I... I don't know... I'm a little frightened truthfully." He wasn't about so say he didn't want anything. Weather or not he wanted it wasn't the matter, it was more about weather or not he was mentally ready for something like what was being hinted at.

The fire in her eyes ebbed a little. His tone forcing her heat down a little. As she clicked the door shut, she pulled her paw from it before locking it and let it fall back to her side. She looked at him with a warm, almost understanding smile. Thouvgh her eyes still had the fire in them "I do not with to make you do anything you dont think you are ready for." She locked the door before walking over to him "Do....do you think we could maybe at least lay down?....together?"

Loki nodded solemly, feeling like he was letting her down some. Heck, he had basically raised himself in a forrest since birth. He'd lived on rations most namrah wouldn't think possible. He'd been through some of the worst conditions, mentally and physically, so why should he feel anything frightening about this? He leaned over and gave her a kiss on the cheek when she got close enough, and smiled at her softly.

Moris heart still glowed with warmth. She wasnt dissapointed at all. She led him to the bed and pushed him gently onto it. After crawling into it, she held out her arms, open for him to join her. Efen if they wernt going to do anything, she still wanted to feel his warmth beside her.

Parisa splashed into the water clumsily. She took a deep breath and tryed to swim fast in circles. The water jetting over her wasd the mud off her fur. Coming back up to spit water near Eir. Smiling brightly. She had always enjoyed water.

Loki followed with Mori to the bed and climbed into it. He looked at her with soft eyes and held out his own arms so that he could embrase her close when they got closed. He sighed happily and gave her a light kiss on the cheek.

Eir stayed at the shore of the pond and moves slightly to the side when Parisa spit at her. She laughed lightly, but wouldn't feel comfortable until they were back inside.

She let her cheek rest on his lips for a fe seconds. letting the warmth spread into her. She held him close. "....You make the cold go away Loki." She looked deep into his eyes "I dont know what I'd do if you went aay and that cold came back.....I'd....I'd die Loki." Kissing his cheek then and resting her head next to his on the pillow.

Loki tried to get a joke in even during this serious moment. "It's my arms and tail, isn't it?" He chuckled lightly before putting on a more serious note. "Don't worry, I don't imagine I'll be going anywhere anytime soon." He smiled at her. "Your minion is happy just where he is."

She chuckled a little and rolled her eyes "Oh yush, because your tail is oh so fluffy. and the fire look of your pelt confuses my brain to think its in front of a fire." she gave him a tiny squeeze to tell him she still liked him even if that was the reason. "Good, minions are supposed to stay forever. Or their masters have to find them and punish them." A light tone in her voice. so light it seemed almost eerie.

Loki smirked slightly. "Oh? You'd punish me? How so?" He questioned with a slightly edge to his voice, as if he was suconciously asking for it.

Mori made a look like she was deep thinking, but not actually doing it. "Hmmm, well, I dunno. I'd have to make it something where the pain wouldnt stay for long, so you could go back to helping me after you learned your lesson. But it would have to be something to leave a scar, so you remember NOT to dissobay again." A slight fire in her eye again, the the kind one would get if they enjoyed tugging butterfly wings off.. She no longer did things like that, for she didnt want to dissapoint Loki. "But it would deffinently have to be something to teach you your lesson." Biteing his neck lightly with her fangs

Loki bit his lip as a chill went up his spine, first cold that hot. He looked up at her with a wanting in his eyes and in his whole body that he just couldn't explain.

Mori nibbled it a little, then chuckled. Licking the little amount of saliva she had left on his neck. "See, thats just me nibbling. I might have to bite harder if you dissobayd."

Loki's ears twitched, his eyes closed, and he felt his head leaning towards his shoulder, giving her more room to nibble on if she desired. Another chill went up his spine and he reopened his eyes with an almost coy smirk. "Hmm... What would be classified as disobaying?"

Mori put her arm over the pilllow so she could put her head in her paw "Hmmm, I donno. Anything I disliked I would suppose. Or not ding as you are told if I really wanted you to do it."

Loki rolled his eyes in mock sarcasm. "Well, then I guess I'll just go to sleep now. G'night." He turned his back to her and layed his head on a pillow, half wondering and half hoping if what he thought she would do next would happen.

She pouted, feeling ignoired. "But...but.....I still wanna talk..." Her voice trailed off as the feeling of lonlyness from the forest crept into her. Her oldinstincts creeping along with them and she bit the side of his hip "I wasnt done talking!" She said as her teeth poked into his skin slightly.

Loki opened an eye and pouted, not having wanted to make her feel bad. He blinked and twitched over as she bit his hip, blushing lightly. "W-What was that for?!"

She stared off to the wall for a moment "You turned away... I couldnt reach your neck anymore. she pulled him twards her a little so he was on his back and she could comfterably rest her head in his crotch and smile over at him.

Loki blinked, not fighting this new feeling, but not sure what to think of it. His face was completly flushed. "Um... could you maybe move your head more... up here?" He motioned more towards his head.

She gave a tiny laugh, not knowing why her head in that place would make a difference. "I gueeeese....." She kissed him before moving her head to his chest and closed her eyes comfterably."

Loki sweatdropped lightly, glad though that she seemed happy agian. He placed one of his arms around her and sighed happily and he closed his eyes as well.

Mori fell into a soft sleep. Loki's heart beating in a gentle lullabye.

Cosmo walked up the Loki's house and knocked on the door.

Eir flicked her ears as she heard a knock, and walked over to the door. "Who's there?"

Loki was laying around, halfway asleep.

Mori playedwith one of Loki's ears as he twitched, falling asleep

Cosmo was a tid bit nervous, "It's Cosmo..." he replied.

Eir blinked and folded her ears down at the sound of his voice. She was still uncomfortable about the last time she had met him. "W-What do you want?"

Loki's ears twitched as she played with them, the only thing keeping him awake.

Mori giggled andkissed his forehead "Bwaha, I shall keep you up." She smiled, thinking that evil. She had no idea the effect Loki had had on her.

Cosmo's ears folded, "I would like to talk to Loki." he told her.

Eir opened the door and looked at him. "Why?"

Loki flicked an eye open and looked up at Mori. "Yes, you will always keep me up when I try to sleep, unless you are sleepy as well. Then I shall keep you up until I am sleepy."

More chuckled. "Seems fare. But I'm not sleepy right now, so its my turn to keep you awake >3"

Cosmo looked down, "I want to live here..." he replied.

Eir blinked, before looking down too. "o-oh... umm... you can come in..." She held the door for him, before running upstairs and knocking on mori and lokis room

Loki chuckled. "It would appear so." He turned his head slightly at the knock

Mori looked at the door too. She smiled "Hello dear." Seeing the look on her face she tilted her head "Something wrong?"

Cosmo tried to cheer back up but couldnt get the unwanting voice of Eir out of his head.

Eir tried to force on a smile at her 'mother'. "N-nothing. It's Cosmo, he wants to speak to Loki."

Loki's ear flicked as he was singled out, and he sat up, yawning. "What does he want?" He didn't mean to sound cold, but he was tired at the moment and he hadn't been expecting his half-brother to show up.

Mori kept her head tilted "Cosmo? I dont think I've heard that name before." She gave a tiny smile to her daughter and patted the bed "Why dont you come sit with us?" Sencing that Eir was hiding her feelings, she wantedto comfort her.

Cosmo sighed, "What am I doing here" he said quietly to himself.

Eir didn't want to go over to Mori, but being the obidient child she was she walked over. "He wants to speak to Loki. He'd like to live here."

Now Loki was interested. "Is that so?" He asked, before stretching. "Guess I better go talk to him, seeing as he is my half brother and all." He then proceded to walk out of the room and over to where COsmo was.

Cosmo looked up, Hi Loki" he said.

Loki smiled slightly at Cosmo. "Hello Cosmo. Any particular reason for this unexpected visit?"

Mori was interested now "Another sibling? Geez, how many of you guys are out there?" She smiled at Eir and tossled her hair. "Why does he want to move in?" She asked her daughter

Cosmo tried to smile, "I'd like to move in with you guys..." he told Loki, "I want to get to know the rest of my family..." he added

Loki cocked his head slightly to the side. "And your parents were fine with this?"

Eir shrugged. "I dunno."

Cosmo nodded, "My mother and father are fine with it.." he said

Mori peted Eirs head a little and went to the door to listen to the conversation.

Loki ran a paw through his hair, this was really unexpected. "Well, if you want to live here you'll have to get an okay form Mori and Eir. Personally, I don't see the harm in it." He shrugged. "But's it's Eir's room you'd end up sharing."

Eirs ears folded down as she was pat, and looked at the blurry figured of Cosmo and Loki.

Cosmo sighed, "I don't think Eir cares for me in the slightest..." he mentioned

Loki shrugged again. "You never know."

Mori's face grew stern. "It is true, this is orrigonaly my house. But my thoughts of you staying only involve my daughter and my lover. It appears to be fine for my lover." She looked over at Eir and paused "You will have to earn yourself into this household.

Cosmo looked over at Mori, "Seems reasonible..." he told her.

Eir just stared at the group.

Loki smiled slightly. "Well, there you have it. Though I don't know what she means by earning your place."

Cosmo sighed, "Not quite sure either.."

Mori smiled at Loki "One has to be proven worthy of such a gift, dear." She stared down at Cosmo. "Though you will have to figure out how to be worthy by yourself."

Cosmo blinked, "alright..." he said uncertain...

Loki shrugged. "Well, what the mistress of the house says goes." He looked over to Cosmo. "You may help youself to the couch." He yawned. "Though for myself, sleep awaits me. Good day Cosmo." He walked over to Mori and Eir.

Cosmo looked at the floor, "goodnight..."

Mori nuzzled Loki's cheek with hers. "Theres food in the fridge if you geet hungry."

Cosmo nodded, "thank you..."

Loki met his cheek with Moris. "Goodnight." He then wlaked into their room.

Morilooked at Eir for a moment "Dear.... its not good to dislike ones family.... I've known such dislike before, all it leads to is self loathing." She kissedher daughters forehead "And one such as you should never hate yourself." and walked to thei room with Loki

Eir folded her ears down as Mori kissed her, and looked down. "Yes mother..." She mumbled to the floor
