It was the kind of day when doing nothing basically constituted doing something, and Isaiah was happily Doing Nothing. Uziri was in her makeshift carrier at his side, happily nestled into a nest of blankets in her beat-up old cardboard box. The sun was beginning to set, but gave enough light to the world to point out the paradox of a vampire wandering freely in sunlight.
It was times like this Isaiah dwelled on the amusing notion that evidently he was supposed to burst into flames or something if sunlight touched him.
"And that's just silly, ain't it, Zee?" he asked the baby.
"Frrrt," Uziri sagely replied, her purplish, wriggly shadow-aura wiggling in grave amusement.
"Right. That's what I say."

(( woooo a vampire! kindred soouullss! lols ...sorry XD wink )
Risika and Elazu were walking down the street, hand in hand. The pair was usualy found around this, mainly due to the fact that Elazu hated being out in the sun, and because hiw gaurdian hated it aswell, for reasons he didnt understand.
Nevertheless, he skipped happily at her side, singing a tune that only he knew while all his gaurdian could do was smile and make sure she had a good hold of his hand.

((woooo kindred! xD <3))
Uziri heard the singing and gave a toothless grin at the sound of it. Pretty! Sure, she didn't understand a word of it, but she liked it.
"Bnah," she burbled urgently at Isaiah. She wanted to see the singing thing, but it was getting Big Thing to understand her desires that was the hard part. "Bnah!"
"What is it, Zee?" Isaiah asked warily. He was never sure what the baby wanted, and this occasion was no exception.
"BNAH!"

(( lol *is lame* X3 ))
As the pair made their way past the burbling child and other vampire, Elazu stopped, his humming becoming slower as he caught sight of the box. With baby noises coming from, his young mind could only think of one thing.
" Mister mister! Are you giving away puppies?!" Elazu broke free or Risika's hand, making his way hurriedly towards the box, peering in. His large smile curled into a confused one as he saw that it was a child before him, not a litter of puppies.
Risika frowned, calling after Elazu as he ran towards the stranger. She sighed, chasing after him at a small jog. As she came closer to the man, however, she frowned slightly becoming very wary. " Elazu don't bother strangers please, its very rude." She smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, he's very curious."

"Bwuh?"
Isaiah's response was hardly the most intelligent, and he was perfectly aware of this. He cleared his throat and hoped the kid's companion hadn't heard him, and shook his head.
"Puppies? Heh, no...that's Uziri."
He noted the woman's expression and grinned slightly, trying to look as non-threatening as possible. Given his demeanor, this wasn't too hard.
"It's not a big deal," he said. "No harm done."
Uziri's eyes widened and she stared at the new creature. It wasn't big, but it wasn't small. It didn't look pleased to see her, but she was greatly pleased to see it- it was new, and fluffy (that hair! Oh, she wanted to pull it!), and it had come to visit her.
"Bnaaaaah!"

Elazu watched the baby for a moment then grinned widely, holding out a hand toward the baby, waggling his fingers. " Hellooo there Uzzy!"
Risika smirked, a hand on her hip as she watched her social butterfly play with the baby. " Uziri? Thats a really interesting name. His name is Elazu, while I'm Risika. Sorry to barge in on your quiet time."

Uziri's shadow-aura wiggled in joy as she basked in the attention, grabbing up towards Elazu and smiling wide.
"Bnah!" she repeated, enthralled. Fluffy Thing liked her!
"It suits her, I think," Isaiah said, looking down at the baby. "I'm Isaiah. Nice to meet you."
At the words 'quiet time', Iz couldn't resist a laugh.
"No no, nothing of the sort. Zee doesn't know the meaning of the word 'quiet', I'm afraid."
He glanced down at Elazu and noticed the tail for the first time. Not wanting to seem like he was giving Risika a once-over, he nodded casually at the appendage and resisted the urge to check if the woman had one too.
"Nifty tail."

Elazu stared at the child, his eyes growing slightly wider with excitement. He liked how babies always seemed to be thrilled by the littlest things. His own mother always told him that he was the same way, but it was different when he could entertain babies. He let the baby take hold of his hand, his eyes glancing at the shadowy form that wiggled around her.
" I agree. Not that I know the child much, but it's a lovely name." She laughed softly, remembering how fussy and talkative Elazu was when he was a baby. She knew exactly what Isaiah was talking about. A smirk crossed her lips as her own tail flicked out from behind her, the splitting image of Elazu's.
" It is indeed. Odd that of all things we would have a similar tail." She shrugged, choosing to sit down since Elazu seemed to be in no mood to leave any time soon. " So how did you happen to become caretaker of your little one?"

With an utterly contented burble, Uziri yanked Elazu's arm down and commenced to gnawing on his fingers. Her expression was delighted - Fluffy Thing was nice, very nice indeed.
Isaiah eyed Risika's unexpected limb with interest, then took a seat on the opposite side. He looked down into the box, sighing and poking Uziri.
"Zee. Let go of the poor kid."
He sighed again and rolled his eyes, grinning ruefully.
"Honestly? I was followed home one night. By a...floating rock. I went home, fell asleep and woke to a giant hole in my door, and there she was sitting on my bed," he said. "Interesting to say the least...how 'bout you?"

A surprised squeak escaped Elazu's lips as Uziri began gnawing on his fingers. He had forgotten that most babies don't have teeth, and had expected many of them to pierce his fingers.
He smiled in response, starting to make funny faces at the babe, utterly thrilled that she liked him so much.
" A floating....rock? Well that is interesting..." She thought back upon the day she had recieved Elazu, smiling fondly at the memory. " A spirit gave him to me. He said 'Take care of me', so I think ELazu is his reincarnation..." She shrugged not truly understanding what Elazu quite was yet. Reincarnation? Or a sort of shadow clone?

Uziri giggled at the faces, relinquishing her hold on Elazu's arm to clumsily clap her hands.
"Bfft!" she said, giggling louder. Beneath her, the shadow-aura wiggled, its"tentacles" writhing and twisting.
"Wow...that's really something."
Isaiah glanced at Elazu curiously. For all anyone knew, maybe he was the reincarnation of some big, mysterious and all-powerful spirit creature. Or, maybe he was just a kid with a tail that had a knack for making babies laugh. Either or. Laughing a bit belatedly, Isaiah ran a hand over his hair and sighed again.
"It was stranger to see than you'd think," he said. "The floating rock, I mean. Almost kinda creepy...but yeah."

Elazu grinned as he took his hand back, clapping his own hands together quickly. He instantly stopped, however, once he felt Uziri's drool dripping down his hands.
" Eewww," he muttered, wiping both of his hands on his pant legs. His emerald eyes flicked toward the aura thing that seemed to be attached to the baby. He arched a brow, reaching to touch it, if he would be allowed.
" Yea, really weird. But I trust him." She smiled again, looking over at Isaiah as he spoke about the floating rock experience. " I personally would have just freaked out." She laughed, then added, " Especially if it was following me."

"Ewwuuuwa," Uziri attempted to parrot, looking up at Elazu adoringly. As he reached for the aura, the baby giggled and shifted slightly. A smoky, transparent tentacle reached out and wrapped loosely 'round Elazu's wrist, but it didn't maintain its hold for long. It was a bit of an effort, and to her it felt exactly like muscles straining from reaching too far.
"Gnrrf," Uziri said solemnly.
"I ran away from it," Isaiah said, laughing a little self-consciously. " 'Course, the guy that got her twin...sister, I'm guessing, he got knocked in the head with a rock instead, so I guess being chased wasn't so bad in the long run."

Elazu watched the tenacle, moving his fingers slightly as he watched the tenacle slide over his skin.
" Oooh thats cool!" He grinned, moving his hand to pet the child's curly head. " You're cute!" He was deffiantely liking this baby, he hoped that after meeting her he would see her again.
" I don't blame you, I would have ran too." She winced at the thought of being hit in the head with a rock. " Is her 'twin' a bit more aggressive?" She laughed softly. " Because that would for sure be a good sign to it."

Uziri puffed up in babyish pride, preening. Her visitor was impressed, this was good! Maybe he'd want to visit her again if he thought she was cool.
"Gnaah," she said, reaching up for Elazu and making grabby hands. "Uppie!"
Isaiah thought on it, then shook his head.
"I dunno, really," he said. "Irizu seemed calm enough...though I didn't get to look her over too close, so you never know. She could be the evil twin."
He glanced down at Uziri.
"Though with my kind of luck, Zee might be the one that grows up to be a nutcase," he said fondly.
