Aladon grimaced at the high-pitched squeal of Aphrodite a little amused with himself. His dirty claw went to bush against the soft side of the wasp girl and a little tentatively he ran one of them down her side. He leaned closer to examinee with his week eyesight the young girl tiny clothes and all, he pulled at his mothers arm egger to show her his new “discovery.”
Kanilea was a little preoccupied. After she had planted the thyme in her hand she was focusing on making a tiny bubble in her hand impenetrable to anything. It was clear that the tiny shimmer, which had brought beads of sweat across her brow, was supper fiscal only as Aladon stuck a claw through it pining for attention. She laughed at herself, “I guess you are a trifle more powerful and talented than I, I can’t imagine carrying on a conversation while doing that. I’m more into the teaching, researching aspect of old magic.” Noticing her own child’s attack on her arm, “Yes, dear, that is Aphroditie she is what you are to me, only to Catherine.” She flipped Aladon around and placed him back were he had been in order to satisfy his playfulness. “Now play nice, and I would beware of that stinger if I were you.” She whispered in his ear.
This caused him to giggle, and return his attention to the little girl.
Kanilea turned her attention back to the flat of plants, “Any plans for this Yule?” She kept on of her eyes on Aladon, not wanting him to hurt or worse eat his acquaintance, but she did not want to intrude on the children’s interactions. She picked up another plant, patchouli, she loved that smell.

" .. Hmm.. I don't know." She blinked thinking. "I was thinking about going out with Salem.. somewhere.. he's my boyfriend. "She smiled a bit. "... The kids might stay here with Baxterfullous, he was my caretaker. Very good with children." She smiled, seeing Aphrodite out of the basket.
"You know you are silly baby." She pointed up at him.

Jizzy Jazz Jizzy arched an eyebrow at the wink, but smilled and waved a hello all the same.
Deimos's eyebrow wings gave a short flutter as the gryphon spoke to him. "How'd you know these things?' He asked, not really convinced with this Uncle Gryff. He looked just like an oversized bird up close.
'Good bye, and don't you throw that look at me, Rex. I'm not dead, nor dying.' The gryphon spread his wings out and bowed to everyone before him. 'Farewell, my lovelies, may we meet again sometime. Have a nice day.
With that he turned and swooped down the stairs, followed by a rather disheartened Rex. As the boy's head poked 'round the corner, his shoulders drooped, followed by a sigh.
"Gone again, like always."
Back at the bench with Jizzy, Silencer shook her head, smiling. Poor boy, he's always wanting to be with Gryff, yet the gryphon was always away. Chuckling to herself, she picked Leyrandia off her head and stood, turning to Jizzy. "Well. Gryff's gone, and I think it's Rex and my turn to poof too. Sorry I can't stay any longer."

"It's alright." She said softly, smiling. "Just make sure you get to me on what you want this Christmas, k?"
Deimos stood there, eyeborw wings extended and arched. He had his spources? He had his sources?!? "Uncle Griff's silly." He said, and not in the good silly way. He had his sources, psshh.

"Same with you. Don't forget!" Silencer smiled and bowed at Jizzy, before making her way towards the boys.
"And what's this about Gryff being silly?" The guardian asked, appearing suddenly from behind Deimos.
"Dei asked how Uncle Gryff know 'bout him, and he said he's got sources."
"Pssh, silly gryphon. Going around making a fool out of himself again." Silencer laughed, shaking her head and rolling her eyes. Typical, that bird.
"But I don--" Rex started a little defensively, but was promptly cut off by his guardian.
"Well, we go." Silencer turned to Deimos and smiled pleasantly at him. "Good bye, Deimos. See you around sometime." With that the guardian nodded a goodbye and headed towards the stair.
"Feh." Rex got up and brushed dirt off him, turning to Deimos. "Bye Dei, we meet again sometimes to explore the new HQ, 'kay?" The boy grinned and bounded off after Silencer without waiting for a reply.

"No, Bergerac. That's fish food. You don't eat that."
"Fooooo...."
"No. It tastes disgusting, and will make you ill. And being ill is bad."
Bergerac tilted her head to the side, one small hand clutching some fish food. She was seated in Varlen's lap at the edge of the pond, and he was showing her how to feed the fish. Well, Varlen was trying. Bergerac seemed to think that it was some strange new form of food, and so kept trying to eat it. He'd been trying to dissuade her from eating for nearly five minutes now. However, she still wanted to eat it. Varlen sighed and shrugged, finally giving up.
"Fine, fine. If you want to get sick, go on and eat it..."

"I win!" Kunjiro cried as he reached the indoor garden, leaving Xiao Ling behind. Not long after Kunjiro's arrival, Xiao Ling came in, too tired to move.
"Alright, you win," she said. "What do you want?"
Before answering Xiao Ling's questions, the mushroom boy ran towards the pond but stopped whe he saw two people at the pond. "Heh, someone here," he said to himself. Without calling his mother, Kunjiro walked towards them. "Hello," he said cheerfully.

Varlen's head whipped around to the sourse of the voice, crimson eyes already narrowed.. but sighed when he saw it was just a kid. An odd-looking one at that. No matter. Varlen had seen stranger before. He gave the child a small nod in his own greeting.
"Hello..." he replied off-handedly, meanwhile batting Bergerac's hand away from her mouth. She was trying to eat the fish food again, trying to take advantage of Varlen's distraction.
Obviously she wasn't very pleased at having been caught, for Bergerac let out a little screech of protest. No! HER food!

"I'm Kunjiro," the mishap said, before taking a seat next to Varlen. "You, sir?"
"There you are," Xiao Ling said, after searching for Kunjiro for some time. Then she turned to Varlen, "I'm sorry if he's bothering you, sir."
Kunjiro was not paying attention to what Xiao Ling said, he was looking at Bergerac with fish food. "Baby a girl right? What is her name?" Kunjiro asked.

"Varlen," the drow replied. "And this is Bergerac. Yes, she's a girl."
Varlen didn't have to bat her hand away again, for it seemed that she had just noticed Kunjiro, and found him RATHER interesting. Well, she was staring at him with those odd blank eyes of hers, but that could mean anything. She seemed to like staring, especially at new or interesting things. Whatever it was that caused her to stare, it certainly made her forget to feed the fish food. She didn't even put up a struggle when Varlen absentmindedly pried her fingers open and took the food from her.
Tossing the food out into the pond so that she wouldn't try to eat it again, Varlen tilted his head back to glance up at Xiao Ling, shaking his head slowly. "No, he's fine at the moment, Madame..."

"Bergerac and Varlen..." the mishap said, trying to remember their names. He looked at Bergerac for a while and asked, "Lines on her face, what they for?"
"Oh, okay," Xiao Ling replied, relieved that Kunjiro was not causing any trouble. "Then I'll leave him here for a while, if you don't mind. I have to do something," she continued and pat Kunjiro on his mushroom hat before leaving, "Mama has things to do, I'll came back later, okay?"

Varlen opened his mouth to protest at playing babysitter, but alas. He was stuck with the mushroom kid, like it or not. He shot the retreating woman a somewhat resentful and irritated look, then let out a small sigh and turned his attentions back on Kunjiro.
"The lines are just there, kid. Nothing special about them..."
After staring for a few moments longer, Bergerac let out a burble before squirming out of Varlen's grasp and crawling rather akwardly towards Kunjiro. Ste stared up at him, her blank gaze filled with an awed look. Again she let out a burble and tugged rather curiously on his moss cape. How odd...

"Oh, nothing special," Kunjiro replied, dissapointed with what Varlen had said about the lines. "And my mom is busy always."
After that, Kunjiro sat on the floor quietly, enjoying the view of the indoor garden the pond. He gave a small yell when the cape was tugged, and turned around to see who did it. The moss boy was relieved when he saw it was Bergerac who did it, but he felt strange when it was tugged.

Varlen gave a shrug and turned back to stare out over the pond, seemingly lost in thought as he idly tossed the last remains of the fish food he had brought up. What he was thinking about, none could really say. He was probably still sulkng over having to play babysitter. Ah well. He'd probably get over it soon. Maybe.
Bergerac let out her own squeak of surprise at Kunjiro's yell, scrabbling backward and away from the source of the loud noise. She didn't go far before stopping and once again staring at Kunjiro oddly. However, she once again crawled forward, this time poking him experimentally on the shoulder. Maybe he wouldn't yell this time...

When Bergerac gave out a squeak, Kunjiro jumped a little as something was troubling him in his mind. He stared at Bergerac for a while before walking towards the pond to see what Varlen is throwing into the pond. "What is that, mister?"
The mushroom boy then sat in front of the pond, wanting to see the fish food Varlen threw but what he saw was a group of fishes gathering at one spot. Not long after that he was poked and this time, he did not yell.
Not knowing what to do, he stood up and digged his pockets and took out one packet of small biscuit. He then tore out the plastic wrapper and offered it to Bergerac, not knowing that babies cannot eat solid food.
