Welcome to Gaia! ::

Fui Fui was sitting on a rock, kicking her feel in the water, watching her momma who was currently gathering quite the crowd. Her momma really was the most amazing person that she'd ever met! The way that she sung, how she could gather such a crowd, how she held them mesmerized like the sirens from the stories that her father had told her. She wanted to be just like her when she grew up.

It was why Fui Fui found herself humming along with the song that her mother was singing, a look of delight on her face. She needed more practice with her singing, with her dancing, with being graceful in general, but one day she'd be just like her momma!

One song ended, gaining applause from those gathering Fui Fui included, and soon enough another one started up. More people gathered, causing Fui Fui to have to shift a bit, swimming up a bit higher so she could an eye on the woman, not wanting to lose sight of her. The idea was a big scary, especially given how easily she got lost when on her own.

Fui Fui paused in her humming, turning when she heard someone else singing along with her mother in their own way. She glanced from side to side, seeking out the voice, and when she finally found it she couldn't help but to stare a bit. Wait, what in the world... who was that?! Her bright eyes went wide as she saw really strange girl that had pretty green eyes, dark hair, and odd little decorations on her face. What were those? Whiskers?

Glancing at her momma for a moment she debated over things in her head before deciding that she was alright to go and peek at the other girl. So long as she could hear her mother singing then surely things would be alright, right? She couldn't be lost if she could still hear her momma. As such wandering just a little further away should be fine!

Swimming hurriedly over to the girl that currently held her interest she said in an excited, chirping tone of voice, "Hello there! You're very neat looking! What are those things are your face?" Lifting a hand she set to poking one of the barbels the strange looking girl had in a curious manner.

"Barbels." Fui Fui said, giving a humming sound and then a happy smile. So that's what they were called, huh? It was a normal thing for those from the swamp the girl spoke of to have those then? She gave a curious sound before she asked, "So then everyone from the 'swamp' have barbels? What are they for? Just being ticklish?" That would be a strange reason for them to exist but who was she to judge?

"Huh? Oh! Thank you! It's the color as my momma's hair." She sounded quite proud of that and she was, she was very happy to share such a pretty color of hair with her mother. Motioning to the side with one hand in an excited motion she said, "My momma is the one that's over there singing! Isn't she wonderful?" She really did love the woman and wanted everyone else to love her just as much.

Fui Fui nodded as the girl explained to her what barbels were needed for. It seemed as though they helped people to get around in muddy waters? Giving a bright smile she said, "Wow! That's amazing! Both what your barbels do and what your waters are like. I can't imagine that." Muddy waters. Here the worst it got was when someone kicked up the sand at the bottom of the water but that tended to clear up after a while.

Giving a rapid nod at the question she said, "Oh, yes! Everyone's hair here comes in all sorts of bright, pretty colors." She'd seen all manner of pretty colors though never any colors like that of the girl in front of her.

Smiling at the next question that was also sent her way she said, "My name is Fui Fui, what is your name?" She was rather curious about what her name was since she wanted to instantly declare this girl her new friend.

As the dark haired girl said that her mother was an amazing singer and that she wished she could sing like that Fui Fui nodded in agreement. Giving a glance toward her mother she said, "I want to sing as good as her too! I am learning, though it's gonna take a bit to catch up I think." Giving a clap of her hands as her new friend tried to sing a few notes she said, "Don't worry! You just need some practice and you will do well I bet!"

"It's very nice to meet you Liloa!" Fui Fui chirped in a happy, sing song sort of voice. The pretty girl seemed to be quite excited over the fact that she'd made a new friend. It was so very wonderful! She wanted to stick close to the girl and becomes great friends with her as long as she was in the area.

Giving a smile she said, "Well, I can try! I am still practicing myself but it might be fun to sing together with someone myself. A lot less daunting for us both as well." It meant that they would be able to sing together instead of singing alone. It was better then having to sing along side her mother since it was a bit of a challenge. She loved singing with her but she wanted time to practice so that she could hope to keep up with the woman.

"How about we pick a simple song and sing it together?" Fui Fui thought on it before she sang the first line of the most simple song that she knew of. Once she was done she looked to Liloa, "Did you get that? Or shall I repeat it?"

Fui Fui flushed a bit as Liloa responded her singing, "Thank you!" She chirped before motioning to Liloa, wanting to hear her sing next. It took other girl a moment to get her courage together but a moment later she was able to sing the words, seemingly able to recall the words that she'd sung for her. That in and of itself was impressive in Fui Fui's eyes.

Once Liloa finished she set to clapping her hands, "That was wonderful, Liloa! Especially for your first try at the song." As the other girl asked if they could sing together she nodded her head rapidly, "Sure! I would love to sing with you. I will count down! Ready?"

The purple haired girl set to counting down from five before starting the song.

After the song was over Fui Fui gave a happy sound, "Thank you for singing with me! It's really fun to get to sing with someone my own age sometimes." She liked that she got to sing with someone closer to her same singing level as well. It would allow both of them to get better together... well, provided Liloa wanted to sing more then just one or two songs that was.

Upon her new friend asking if there were other songs she knew though she set to nodding her head rapidly, "Oh! Yes, I know a lot of them. Want me to share them with you?" Instantly she set to thinking about it, about other songs that were easy to learn, after a moment she set to singing another one at a slow pace so that Liloa could catch all of the words to it.

"It's one that sort of just repeats the verse over and over, it's something to sing while doing chores to make them seem to go by a little quicker. That is what my mother told me at least." She didn't do a ton of chores so she couldn't really say one way or the other if the song worked though.

Fui Fui couldn't help but to giggle as Liloa set about singing some random notes before she said that they didn't sound as good as intended, "It's alright, we are still practicing so you don't have to worry about things not being perfect. We are both still learning after all." She didn't want her new friend to think that she was doing anything wrong. Not when she was working so hard from the looks of her. Instead Fui Fui wanted the two of them to have lots of fun with their singing attempts.

"Ohhh? You're going to unleash all of your powers? I would like very much to see that, Liloa!" She didn't know what it meant exactly but if she had some sort of hidden powers deep down then Fui Fui really wanted to see them! Or hear them, which ever way the powers would present themselves was good by her.
