Jun gently nosed three little bodies away from the home she shared with her human and several other demons. "Come on now, don't dawdle." She said kindly. She did enjoy watching them as they wiggled about as they walked. "Don't go to far. Robin, please stay close." Herding cats. She remembered hearing someone say It's like herding cats and finally, the phrase made sense. It's almost impossible.Robin sighed as he trotted back towards his mother. He had seen a thing, and wanted to know what it was, but mom knew more about the world. Maybe he should stick close. For now. He looked at his brother, who was practically glued to his mother's leg as they walked, and his sister. "Where are we going mama?" "We're going to see daddy.""Oh." Boy, won't Wally be surprised... Jun mused as they walked. She almost tripped over Jih more then once and ended up picking him up by the nape and carrying him so he wasn't in the way.
There. Up ahead she could see the familiar log cabin. Would Wally be in the garden? Or would he be inside?

Wallace was busy working on his cucumber garden. It was a pleasant day out but he was frustrated cause one row seemed to be wilting. "You're getting just as much water as everyone else. I don't know why you insist on being so ornery." He mumbled aloud to his plants often. He thought they grew better when he talked to them. Not that he would admit that to anyone...

Jun set Jih down as she heard Wally speak. "Mmm. Talking to your garden? Or are you saying I'm ornery?" She teased.
Robin was looking up at this large male demon, and trying to decide if this was "daddy" or not. Jih sort of backed up against his mother's legs. After a moment, Robin shrugged and trotted over next to Wallace and looked at the plants. Then quickly pawed a bug off of one of the leaves. "What's this?"
"Oh, and Wally my dear... Surprise."

Wally turned around to give Jun a sarcastic reply and a kiss, then stopped dead in his tracks. What. The. Hell. Why were there three tiny demons following Jun around? And why did they look like him? "Oh crap. We spawned more?" He stared down at the one who had wandered over to the garden. "Hey, you. Careful with those leaves. Those are my cucumbers and if you hurt them I will be a very unhappy daddy." He gave Jun a sideways look. "So..... when exactly did this happen??"
Gabrielle tottled over to her brother and pounced on the bug he'd just knocked off. Then picked the insect up happily in her mouth and trotted back over to her mom and dropped it at her feet. "Look mama!" She smiled., very pleased with herself.

Jun shrugged. "Night at the beach? The evening after when we were watching that movie? I don't know. But they're obviously yours." She looked down at the bug that Gabrielle dropped. "Very good dear." Jun toyed with the thing with her claws a moment. "Do you know what to do with it?"
Robin pouted. "But... the bug eats the plant... doesn't it? HEY!" He shot his sister an annoyed glance when she took it then growled. "That was mine."
Moving her paw away from the bug, she gently pushed Jih forward. "Say hello."
"...lo..." he shuffled his feet a bit before looking up at Wally. The pool on his head rippled as he moved.

He gave Jun a look. "Well they better be mine!" He sighed and looked down at the three and slightly smiled. "I guess they are pretty cute... What are their names?" He raised an eyebrow at the little red one. "Don't growl at your sister.' He said sternly. He was going to need to teach these kids some manners.
He peered over at the little shy one hiding by Jun and grinned with some weird fatherly pride when he saw the little head pool swish about. He bent down enough so that the little guy good see his own watery head. "Lookin' good little one."
Gabby looked at her brother and grinned then stuck out her tongue. "Well maybe you should be faster next time." Though she felt kind of bad and kicked it back over to him with a smile. She peered up at her moms face way above her. "Do ya kick it around?"

"She shouldn't steal." Robin replied before stepping on the bug.
Jun was laughing. Gabrielle was just so darling. "Yes, that's one thing we do with bugs. Eating them is also acceptable. But only in moderation. And it's fun to gross out humans by doing that." She turned her eyes to Wally. "Well I don't know who else could father such sexy children. No one else meets my standards anyways."
When Wallace bent down, Jih looked up at him, and instantly his face brightened. He had the same head water! This caused the pale green one to purr just a little. He was afraid that he was weird. His mom didn't have water on her head, neither did his brothers or sisters. But daddy!
"I'm Jih!" He blurted out, beaming at his dad before his eyes were drawn by the dangling rock on Wally's horn. He reached out and batted it gently. "Like mama's!"
Jun laughed slightly. "Yes, this little one is Jih, that strapping young one with the shell is Robin, and this little lady is Gabrielle. Children, this is your father."

He smirked at Jun and glanced at his new offspring. They were damn sexy. He rolled his eyes at Robin. What a little smart a**. Takes after his dad, he thought with a grin. Though Jun was equally as snarky. Good genes these kids got.
He grinned at Jih and wiggled his head back and forth so the rock would sway more.
Gabby cocked her head and a big smile spread over her face. "We can EAT them??" She ran over to the bug Robin had just squished and pushed him out of the way in her excitement. She licked up the smooshed bug guts and swallowed. Then made a face. "Blech! I dunno. They don't taste too good... Hey, what's that?" She was staring at the reflection of the sun hitting the water of the pond. Before awaiting an answer she started running towards it.

Kitten instincts took over. Jih sat back on his haunches and raised his paws to bat at the shiny dangly thing. He had a high purr as he amused himself with the shiny thing.
Jun about burst into laughter at the face Gabrielle made. Priceless. She was about to tell her that they didn't need to eat bugs, and most didn't taste good, but the child was off like a rocket. "What is it with our girls and having that much energy and speed?" She watched the girl. "Oh crap. She's going towards the water, we haven't taught her how to swim!" Jun jumped over Robin and the cucumber patch in a single bound to race after the girl- just in case. She would let her explore, but if she fell in or panicked, Jun would be right there.
Robin and Jih both looked at her as she left, then looked at Wallace. "Are we going to?" Jih asked, wondering what the excitement was all about.

Wally wasn't too worried about Gabrielle. She had two pretty awesome parents after all. Plus, Jun had her covered. He pulled his head and pendant gently out of reach of Jih's little claws and smiled down at his boys. "It's up to you. You kids wanna go check it out?"
Gabby ran up to the water and, without realizing it wasn't solid, fell face first when her paws gave way into the muddy bank. "Gah!!" She came back up snorting water out her nose and frowning. She could still stand, but now she was stuck in the mud and was slightly angry. "HEY! That was mean." She frowned down at the pond where her legs had vanished up to her tummy.

Jih was about to say no, he didn't want to go. But before he could say it, Robin perked up with a squeal. "YES! I wanna see the blue thing too!" He shook himself and was about to go charging through Wally's garden, but stopped, remembering the warning, and carefully walked around the patch of cucumbers before he began stumbling as quick as he could down towards the water. Jih sighed and looked up at his father.
"We got lefted."
Jun slowed down and trotted up beside Gabrielle and looked down at her with a smile. "Do you like the water?" She asked softly, eyeing her critically, in case she was hurt. She looked fine, just mad at the water, and a little muddy. Jun did her best not to laugh at how silly she looked with her face soaked and the mud up her legs. "Are you stuck?"

Wally perked an eyebrow as Robin ran off to the pond, but skillfully avoided his precious cucumbers. Maybe that kid wasn't going to be such a brat after all. He glanced down at Jih and tried not to grin too hard when the little one sighed. "That we did. C'mon, let's go see what they're up to." He nudged Jih with his nose and started walking to the pond slowly so Jih could stay right by him.
Gabby stuck her tongue out at the... water. Yeah, that's what her mama had called it. "No. I DON'T like the water. It's mean." She wiggled her toes in the mud and tried to pull one leg out but failed and only succeeded in sinking a little lower. She was slightly alarmed, but stubborn. "Nope! Not stuck. I'll be fine." She wiggled the other leg around, trying to pull it free without letting her mom figure out what she was doing.
She saw her brother running up and grinned with a mischevious twinkle in her eyes. "Hey, Robin! You should come in. It's fun!"

Jun smiled and lay down. "Alright. Mmmm this is a nice spot to sun myself." She said, keeping an eye on the little girl.
When Robin heard that whatever that was was fun, he picked up speed. "INCOMING!" He squealed before leaping over his sister, using her butt as a springboard, into the water. His mother frowned at the water droplets that pelted her from the little one's splash.
Jih trotted as fast as his dad, keeping up. "So what is that? That thing that's eating Gabby? That... Robin just ... well... you saw. Why isn't mama going in? Does mama not like it?" He couldn't help but ask questions. This was all very very new. It seemed that as soon as the three of them were standing, Jun was ushering them out of the human's house and into the world.
It was huge! Huge and green.

Wally laughed and tried to keep up with all Jih's questions. "Well, that's called a pond. It's made of water. It's VERY fun to swim in. If you don't get stuck in the mud like your sister." He grinned at Gabby as he padded up next to Jun and lay down next to her. "Everyone ok?" He asked with a nuzzle to her neck.
Gabby's butt squished down in the mud, but the force of Robin pouncing on her popped her front legs out. Now her whole bottom half was stuck in the mud, but her top half was free. She sighed in annoyance and looked down at the water, perplexed. She'd figure it out eventually. She craned her neck around to see how Robin was doing.

Glancing at their daughter, Jun just smiled. "Seems like they're all doing fine." She purred, rubbing her head under Wally's chin as he lay beside her.
Robin bobbed up and began flailing in the water a little. He didn't look in trouble. But he was trying to swim. He just hadn't coordinated his feet yet, and in some ways, his legs were being counter productive in swimming.
Jih was looking at his sister, then his brother. "So... to go have fun like Robin, I have to get past the muck that Gabby's in?" This seemed like a problem. But, daddy said swimming in the pond-thing was fun, and Jih really liked fun. "Alright!" He bound closer to the water, a bit away from his sister, and began testing the marshy ground, and very VERY slowly began to inch his way to the water. If he started sinking too much, he pulled his paw back and stared at the mud.
