Cal looked down that the doll that was looking at himself in a mirror. Cal couldn't beleieve how much Paven liked to look at himself. Or really anything. Paven just loved to stare. His eyes seemed to love watching her too. which dispite the fact that Paven seemed like her like a big sister it made her feel really uncomfortable. Not like Paven could even hurt her but still...
Calendra sighed and brushed back her hair as she tried to gather courage. She needed to make this call, she just had too. She had to know everything she could about Paven. It was one thing to walk away when she didn't beleive the women but now...what else would paven do. Would he grow? Would he change? She needed to know.
She picked up her phone and carefully dialed in the numbers. She put it to her ear and listened to the phone ring. Half of her hoped, hell most of her hoped, that Kami wouldn't pick up and she could leave a message for the woman to call her back. Then it wouldn't be in her court anymore and she wouldn't be controling his whole fissaco.

On the other end, at an overly clean apartment, Kami did, in fact, pick up the phone, despite Cal’s hope that she would not. Then again, it could have been worse; Zac could have picked up the phone.
Kami did not speak into the phone immediately after putting it to her ear, but instead, waited a moment. After a short silence, she finally spoke, “Hello?” Her voice over the phone was almost exactly the same as her voice in real life. It was, however, happier and less nervous sounding than the time Cal met her. Then again, her tone was overly cheerful for Kami anyways. It was always that way when she was on the phone. Even with the merry sounding voice one might have been able to hear a slight annoyance in it. This being said, the same person may have been able to tell it was not the phone that caused the irritation. It was simply something which happened on her side before the phone call. It was only a salutation though, and just taking it as simple greeting was probably the best way to go.

"Oh...um...you're there" Cal said embaressed and already flusters. Oh God, how in the world should she frase this? "Um...well you see, it's me. Calendra Emerson. You contacted me about Bellus Paua?" she asked, "And well...I geuss first off I'd like to apologize for my brother's rudeness and for nethir of us beleiveing you after you went though so much trouble to contact me and everything" Cal rambled. she tended to do that, ramble or not tlak. She was horrible at finding a good medium.
"But you see it just seemed so imposisble. Well...um...it doesn't seem as impossible anymore" CAl told the woman. "Paven...woke up? I don't know. He's moving though" A hint of fear entered her voice.
"Who are you talking to Cal?" Paven asked, looking away from the mirror when he heard Cal ramblign on nervusly. Cal was always nervous he noticed. About something, or more likely someone. The only time she didn't seem nervous was when she sat down with her pencial and drew in her book. She was pretty good, if paven could say so himself. At least he asumed she was good. He hadn't seen many other people draw.

“Oh. Um.” What was the deal with Cal always catching her without a plan? Kami had figured nothing would happen with Paven, and then it did… Kami wondered how far two nervous people on the phone could go. “He did…? Really…? He started to move…?” This conversation wasn’t going to go anywhere to fast with Kami just asking what has already been said. Fortunately, Kami knew this. Different questions will work a whole lot better. “When, then? How is he? What are you going to do? Can I do anything to help?”

Cal felt marginally better when she heard the nerves in MS voice. Good she wasn't alone. It wasn't that she was glad that Kami was uncomfortale but if she was nervous too then clearly she could be slightly less scared....Slightly.
'Yum, yes really, he started to talk too. He changed um two days ago I think. He's...pretty much okay, I have no idea what I'm going to do and yes you can help. Will...will you tell me more about what I should do? Will he change again?"
"Who are you talking to Cal?" Paven asked, completely ignoing on the phone ediquite. "Are you talking about me? Is the person nice? Can I talk? I wanna talk Cal. Please can I talk?"

“Talk? Really?” Kami was now slightly excited with the new information, and it showed in her voice, even with her nervousness. “I can’t get Yoru to talk, but then again, he’s a pain… I can’t say for sure if he will change again… Zac—you know, my crazy friend—has two dolls, and both of them changed into children one night… Well, sorta children” They still have skin like porcelain. I would suggest caring for Paven like you would a fragile child. I would feed him, too. Yoru enjoys eating, although it doesn’t seem like he has to, and he can sleep, even though he usually won’t.”
It took a moment for everything to finally click in Kami’s mind. She being a person so accustomed to the logic of life had finally accepted the dolls and had now added this into her own reasoning. It is this reason she actually paid attention to the second voice she heard coming over the line. She could not make out the words, but she knew it wasn’t one she had heard at the last meeting, and it seemed—well, she couldn’t pick out the word, but the tone reminded her of Tsurara after he began to speak. “Is Paven there with you now? Speaking to you, even?”

Cal was trying hard to comfort Paven and still listen to Kami but Paven wasn't one to be brushed off with a "That's nice honey, no go off and play". Cal was trying hard to listen to Kami, so she kept the phone to her ear so she couldn't cover it so Paven's voice wouldn't get over the line.
"I can't get him to be quiet" Cal told Kami, "He could turn into a child!?" Cal gasped. she went silent for a moment thinking that over. She....could be a mother. Like her mother...only not, because she didn't have sex to get Paven, Cal's cheeks blushed at the thought. Then she shook her head.
"Ah yes, he is, do you want to talk to him? I'm sure he like that"
Paven was jumping up and down now. Cal was ignoring him. That wasn't right. He wanted attention and he wanted it NOW! He waved his arms in the air while Cal talked on the phone, went silent, blushed, then spoke up again in that etneral quiet way she had of speaking. She had an apology permently caught in her throat.
"Ca-al" he whined in that special streatching out the words kinda way. "Who are you talking too? Why are you talking about me? What do you mean I could turn into a child?" he asked, "What's a child? Talk to me Cal. Please. Come on, please!?"

“Talk to…a doll…over the phone?” This was the first time Kami even considered something so strange, and it was taking a moment for her to actually think it out. If she was able to talk to a dolll—three dolls, in factl—in person, why couldn’t she talk to one over the phone? True, the twins had yet to use the phone, but what was the point when the two apartments were only a staircase away? “Sure, I can try talking to him,” she answered, finally accepting the idea of talking to a once inanimate object over the telephone.

"Great" Cal sounded really releived, it get the pressure off her for a least a little bit. She to talk to Kami again eventually but hopefully Paven could get rid of some of his extra energy if he directed all his questions to a person that wanted to awnser him. She let out a small sigh and then pulled away from the phone.
There was muffled sound of talking the phone swaping hands. Cal's careful voice explaining how a phone work came over the line till finally Paven was ready to talk.
Paven had a million questions for Cal once she would finally talk to her but she wouldn't awnser any. She was too busy trying to explain how to work that stupid phone thingy. He could of firgued it out on his own....he was pretty sure he could anyway. Still soon he was on the phone with someone else. Someone Cal said wanted to listen to her.
"Hi, who are you? I'm Paven. Cal said that you wanted to talk to me. Why do you want to talk to me? Will I really turn into a child? What's a child? What's your name? Do you have a doll like me? Can I meet the doll? I want to meet the doll. Do you know how to make Cal listen to you? Because she doesn' listen to me very well. So how are you?"

Kami was a bit—okay, much more than a bit—surprised by all the questions. She took a moment to gather her thoughts, but she hurriedly began to answer the questions as best she could, probably skipping and reordering quite a few. “Hello, I’m Kami. I have a doll named Yoru, and I’m pretty sure you can meet him if Cal says so. My friend’s two dolls became children, which are like smaller, younger versions of adults like Cal, but I don’t know if you or Yoru will. And…er…I’m fine. How are you?” The last question came out automatically for Kami. She was so used to replying that way, and when she was nervous, she had an even harder time keeping her mouth in check. She didn’t really think the phrase mattered much; she just felt strange asking it to a doll.

"I'm fine" Paven asured her. Cal hadn't had time to teach him manners yet so he didn't thank her. Or anything like that. "so why do you want to talk to me?" he asked again. "I would like to to meet the children. I think being a kid soudns cool. Will I not be made of glass anymore?"

Paven came at Kami with more questions, catching her off guard once again. Once more she attempted to answer as best she could. “I just wanted to meet you, is all, and I’m pretty sure the kids would agree with it being cool. My friend’s dolls—the ones who became children—are still made of porcelain, I think, or something close to it. I would guess you would be as well if you became a child. If you wish to meet the children, how about you ask Cal if you can? I’m fine with you meeting Yoru, and I’m sure my friend would allow her children to meet you.”
Kami was finally becoming more comfortable on the phone with Paven. Kami thought perhaps it was the relaxed vibe she was getting from Paven, but then again, many are more relaxed than Kami on the phone.

Paven wasn't one to wait. He turned quickly to Cal and yelled at her. "CA-al" he said making the single sllyble name two syllbles long. "Can I play with this girl's doll?" he asked. "I want to play with the doll? Please?" Paven looked at Cal who was finally able to get herself back under control.
Cal sighed, "Sure, you can play with her doll. When I get back on the phone I'll arrange a play date or something" though then she have to tell her brother and he be all suspious and stuff. Cal took a deep breath and sighed. Well she'll have to let Leo know about Paven ethir way. He was going to come over eventually. He always did when she stoped tlaking to epople in her family. She would of lost contact by now if it wasn't for her brother.
"Cal says yes" Paven informed Kami grandly. "She said she will make a play date with you when she's on the phone. What's a play date?" he asked her, all rather intrested. "What's your doll like? Is it a girl or a boy?" At least Paven knew genders. "What's your name? What's your dolls name? is the doll nice? Is it really still a doll if it talks? Am I doll? Are there lots of us out there?" Paven was asking all the questions Cal wanted to but was stubmling over.

“You ask a lot of questions, don’t you?” Kami chuckled a bit at Paven’s enthusiasm. He is much different from her own doll, that was for sure. “I think Yoru’s a boy, but I can’t be sure with him. He’s interacted with so few I can’t say how he would treat someone new. I don’t know if it is still a doll if it talks, but what else can you call what used to be an inactive doll? Er… You used to be a doll, and including you I only know of four dolls that have come to life, but I haven’t been looking long.” Kami was not really sure how to answer the many questions, and she knew she had skipped over some, but she wasn’t sure how to answer them all with someone as curious as Paven on the other end of the line. She answered those she remembered as well as she could and hoped that her answers wouldn’t cause any problems later on.
