"Spring-spring, I love spring!" The reddish hued girl bounced along, her scarf trailing behind her as she did. A few spins, twirls and slipping on damp grass to come crashing to the ground. A brilliant display as far as she was concerned.
Her sister thought quite the opposite. Though she did love the brilliant light that was being cast down. She didn't enjoy the fact her sister was bouncing around like a five year old that was high on some serious crack. Or something... God she wasn't even sure what her sister looked like, but it was definitely not dignified. Especially with the rolling around in the grass before bouncing back up, mismatched wings shifting to rid themselves of a few stray drops. Yep, far from dignified. "Lyneas..." The word was more of a hiss than anything as she inched her gaze across the few starring passerby. "Behave." must her sister always make her look like a nut as well?
The girl first perked up at the sound of her name, a childish grin tugging it's way along her face. Then dropping momentarily as the second word was said. "Aww, but it's sunny out. This is how you act when you're happy to see the sun. That's what I was told."
A hand reached up to massage her forehead slightly, eyeing her sister from behind her palm. "And let me guess, Mr. Fluffles told you that?"
"Ya-huh." The reply was instantaneous as she started to take the hands of some invisable thing and began dancing around. "An' he says you should have more fun too. Dun let the aliens ruin your fun!"
Eren sighed, rubbing her forehead further as she attempted to wipe the latest set of nonsense from her brain. "Tell Mr. Fluffles he's as nuts as you." Another day in the park with her sister. Because heaven only knew what chaos she'd cause anywhere else if she could make such a mess here.

"Wow, Bee! Look at all the flowers!" Isvara skipped daintily through the park, stopping every few seconds to carefully smell one of the blossoms that grew alongside the path. The fact that most were the same type of flower didn't make this any less interesting. After all, everything was so beautiful!
Stumping along behind, Bian paused to kick a tree. "How come we have to stay out here? I wanted to stay with the dragon." Of course, the dragon had been trying to eat her arm before, and it was wrapped in a bit of gauze to keep her several small cuts from bleeding, but that didn't dampen Bian's resolve to beat the monster. "I almost had it!"
Why did she always have to fight? Sighing, Isvara leaned against a tree. She knew they weren't supposed to run too far ahead, but the flowers were so pretty! Still, that meant that they were ahead of the grown-up, and if Bian got mad, she would get hurt. So instead of saying what she felt, she kept her mouth shut for another five seconds while she looked around, and spotted a girl dancing a short distance away. Whatever she was doing, she looked like she was having fun.
"Hey," Isvara called, "I like your scarf!" And with that she bounced towards the stranger. A pretty scarf and a fun dance were all that the green girl needed to deem someone a friend.

Lyneas had started to turn to give her sister a look of pity when she paused briefly. Something about her scarf? Another quick twirl as her twin was dismissed for the moment as she spotted the green thing. "S'like a clover ain't it, Mr. Fluffles?" She called happily watching the pale haired creature a moment longer. Then glancing to listen to her invisable friend as a broad smile appeared on her face. "Oh, really!?" An excited hop as she quickly darted straight at the other child.
She had a peace sign on her head. and white. Thus, she'd been told the creature was a kind of dove. They always had peace signs. Seeing as she'd never sean a dove before, and one that hadn't been tampered with by aliens obviously, she was more than equally eager to meet this creature. "HI HI HI!"
Eren blinked at the disregard she got. It wasn't often her sister let such a comment drop, even if the girl was a bit over the edge. Then again, taking the new distraction into account... it made sense. Why would anyone suggest that scarf was nice though? Oh well, classic company for Lyneas. Anyone who liked her scarf.
A few moments of wonderng if following her sister was worth it and Eren started to stalk along with far less vigor than her sibling. She had to make sure the girl didn't run out in the street afterall. Because Lyneas didn't have the common sense to avoid it on her own.
The dark skinned girl hopped a few steps to a halt after closing in on the other creature, giving it an eager lookover. "Dovies are a lot like Lyneas', Mr. Fluffles." Was all she had to say on the matter. Afterall, the thing had two wings and a tail. It was a lot like her.

Oh good, the girl was nice! For a few fleeting moments Isvara had been worried that she might be mean, like Bian. They were, after all, very similar in color. But Bee never danced, unless she was to get something out of it.
"Hiiiiiii!" Isvara returned, picking up the pace. "What's your name?"
Since Isvara was running, Bian had to run too, if only so that her nitwit sister wouldn't beat her at anything. Not even sure what the finish line was, she sped forwards, running straight past the new girl and tagging a tree a few yards away. "I win!"
"Win?" What was Bian talking about? "Bee, you're so silly," Isvara giggled.
Bian scowled, then noticed the other girl- or was it girls? "Who're you supposed to be?"

Lyneas was still sort of leaning from side to side to peer at the dove-thing as gave it's own greeting. Then simply asked what her name was. A brief look then a glance at the creature darting by before it's declaration. "Winning isn't the point." Was the minor mumble she coughed out before brightening back up and turning back to the dove. "I'm Lyneas and this is Mr. Fluffles!" She gestured to the air next to her as she mentioned the second name. "He's my best friend."
Eren arrived as her sister was introducing her 'best buddy' in the world. In other words the non-existant freak in her brain. "Please forgive Lyneas, she doesn't realize he's not real." Which she knew would earn her a quip about aliens, but at least they'd know SHE wasn't a nutcase. "She's my sister. I'm Eren." Even if she was to be associated with the girl who couldn't tell reality and fantasy apart.
"Eren just doesn't realize her head is muddled up by the aliens." The sentence was whispered into Isvara's ear as Lyn let her head drop a bit. What a sad day. Her sister was still a mess cause of those bad bad aliens.

"Winning is always the point!" Bian countered hotly. If you didn't win, you lost, and that was absolutely not allowed to happen. She was a winner. No matter what, she had to win.
Isvara, on the other hand, nodded cheerily. "I think so too! It's not whether you win or lose," she quoted, "it's how you play the game. Because playing games is fun. And your name is so pretty! But I don't see Mr. Fluffles. Is he invisimable?"
Rolling her eyes, Bian glanced at the other girl. Not real. Well, that made sense, but she wouldn't be willing to admit it. Instead she crossed her arms and sized up the pair. The crazy one was completely wrong, she knew that already. But the other one might be worth something.
"It's nice to meet you," Isvara said politely, the comment about being real or not going over her head. "I'm Isvara, and my sister is Bian. Except she's mad now, aren't you, Bee?"
"No." She couldn't agree with Isvara after all. Never in a million years.

Eren didn't see too much of a point to winning. At least not everything. It could matter occaisionally. Arguments with her sister, sometimes games... but nothing like a nonexistant race. Which is what she decided the current bit was about. There certainly didn't seem much else around to win. So perhaps all reddish girls where a bit odd. Not just Lyneas.
Lyneas beamed happil at Isvara. "He's all hiddeny unless you believe he's there. Then he's there." She pipped out happily while eyeing the other girl.
"T- isn't. Cause Mr. Fluffles says it's not. Least not unless it's beating the aliens and saving th' world." She quickly babbled. Shifting her scarf a bit. "Cause they shouldn't be messing up our brains at all. S'what Mr. Fluffles says."
Mad? As in grumpy obviously. The pale girl gave the grumpy looking thing a glance as it snapped out it's reply. So Bian was a touch on the snappy side. Best to avoid her then. "It's nice to meet you both." At least, that was the proper reply. Even if she thought both where a touch insane. Bian for her obsession with winning something nonexistant. Isvara for her ability to agree with Lyneas of all people.
"It's good to meet you both! Mr. Fluffles says so too! Since ya can't see him and all!"

"Oh, that's so cool!" Isvara's eyes widened as she looked at the space where Mr. Fluffles was supposed to be. "Is it like magic? Mama Ray does magic, but we're not allowed to look yet." But that didn't stop Isvara from trying to peek, when Anoki was getting his magic lessons. It looked like so much fun.
What was a Mr. Fluffles? And what aliens? Bian frowned, and looked from Lyneas- who seemed both ignorant and blissful- to Isvara, who was smiling her usual goofy smile. It made Bian want to puke. Instead, she looked at Eren, and commented casually. "Do you know what she means?"
During much of Lyneas' speech, Isvara's eyes were glazed over. At the end, however, she perked up again. "Wow, you can hear him too! That's incredimable!"

Lyn nodded eagerly before looking completely lost. Magic? She frowned before glancing at the empty space as some form of explaination was obviously being given. then a grin. "Ah, that's what it is?" A quick turn back to Isvara as she shook her head. "It's not magic. It's technologies. Mr. Fluffles is as advanced as the aliens or more. I think he's more cause he knows how to beat the aliens."
Eren sighed, shaking her head at the question. "Not really. It's all in her head. Aliens are some odd creatures that supposedly mess with peoples brains. It's as fake as that buddy of her's Mr. Fluffles. Ignore it." So maybe this Bian wasn't so cazy. At least she saw through the nonsense that was her sibling. Definitely earned her a few points on the reality-check scale.
"Of course I can hear him. How else could he be my best friend?" What a silly thing to say.

Wow, Lyneas was so smart! She knew all sorts of big words that Isvara could only guess about. "What's a tekno-logic? Did Mr. Fluffles tell you about it? Mama Ray tells us about magic, sometimes." More accurately, she told them that they were magical research projects, which always made Isvara feel special.
"So she's just pretending? Lame," Bian said scathingly, glaring at the other red girl. They might have had a few things in common appearance-wise, but they were nothing alike. And that girl had nothing useful to offer. At least the purple one explained things.
Was it just her, or was there scorn in that comment? Hurt, Isvara twirled one finger in her hair. "How could I know? Not everyone talks, after all."

"It's um... a..." The girl frowned, twisting her foot into the ground. It was just a word Mr. Fluffles said. "It's being really smart and having shiny things ther to special stuff." It's what she knew on the subject anyway. "Metaly things that do stuff with power. Not magic." Not that she really knew much about magic either. Still, it was the best makeshift explaination she could come up with. A quick glance to the side as if the clarify that it was well enough. "Yea, no magicy. It's the opposite of magicy."
Eren nodded with a sigh. "To Lyneas it's reality because... she just won't listen to anyone. She thinks it's real, but it's not." The girl crossed her arms frowning. "Mr. Fluffles doesn't exist and neither do aliens. She just wants to think they do."
The girl shook her head. "Everyone talks. Just not the same as everyone else sometimes. You just gotta find out how they talk. Just cause you can't hear them doesn't mean they don't talk." It was the same as seeing Mr. Fluffles afterall. Just because they didn't see him didn't mean he wasn't there.

Despite Lyneas' careful explanations, Isvara was still confused. "But that sounds just like magic! Mama Ray uses shiny things and power. And so does 'Noki's dragon. He really likes shinies." Then, however, there was a word she did understand. "Oh, oppy-sits! Like me and Bee!"
"That's still pretending," Bian insisted. "So silly." How could someone pretend so hard that it was real? That sounded like magic to her- another bit of Raven that had sunk in during her research- but Bian didn't say that. She was there to listen, not to talk, and if she knew more she would have the upper hand.
Isvara shook her head. "Nuh-uh. Babies don't talk. And dragon's don't either. At least, not until they know how. But I'm sorry if I made Mr. Fluffles mad."

Dragon. Lyneas knew what a dragon was. There was the one that lived at the house. A big one named Ymir. "Draggies dun like shinies." She quickly countered. She'd never seen Ymir try to get any shiny things. He was always hanging around Keanu. "Draggies like fluffy things." Ah yes, a very good explaination. "Yea, opposites. Does same things, but not the same." The perfect explaination. At least in her opinion. Mr. Fluffles didn't have anything against it, so she'd stick with that.
"It is, I keep telling her not to. She just doesn't listen." The girl sighed, rubbing her head lightly as she did. "It's a real headache dealing with her everyday."
Lyneas shook her head as well. "Th' froggy talks. Just not like normal." She quickly chirped. It wasn't that she didn't like Isvara, just that she wasn't right. "Mr. Fluffles is nice, he doesn't get mad. So he's fine, he still wants to be your friend."

Isvara didn't want to argue, not with a friend. She did enough of it with Bian, and it was quite tiring. But she knew that dragons liked shiny things. "Maybe some like fluffy things," she said carefully, "and some like shinies."
"I bet," Bian said. Finally, someone to commiserate with. "Izzy's hard too. She wants to make friends with everyone. Silly."
Still trying to avoid conflict, Isvara let the comment about the frogs slide. Instead, she brightened. "I'm glad he's not mad! And I want to be his friend too. He sounds really nice, like you!"

The new suggestion was plausible. She thought a moment before a quick glance to her friend and a nod. "Yea. Mr. Fluffles says that's probably right. Draggies can like many things he says." And if Mr. Fluffles said it it was true. As far as Lyneas was concerned anyway.
"Lyneas just wants to save everyone from the aliens. Or drag them down into her madness." She shook her head. "It's how she makes friends."
Lyneas beamed at the comment. "Mr. Fluffles is the best! He knows everything about well... EVERYTHING! And he's nice too! He's why I'm nice, caus ehe said being mean is bad." If there was one thing Lyneas was an expert it was her best friend and how great he was. "He taught me everything I know!" Which was alot in her opinion.
