Welcome to Gaia! ::

It had infact been quite a good thing that Silv had decided to join Cliff for his morning run, ignoring the fact that although the shire was fit, incredibly fit infact, he really wasn't quite as fit as the percheron was.. It was physically impossible for anyone to be fitter than Cliff in fact was. He had run for a while, but only a little while, before he had fallen into a much easier pace with his much smaller friend, Briar, who he had decided really needed a walk this morning.

Briar had honestly thought otherwise, but he had at least found a new friend while walking, a tall, thin andalusian. He was obviously of good stock, just quite a nervous, slightly quiet fellow. Much like Briar himself was in actuality, so he followed on after them. Silv had found another distraction as well. A blue monster who seemed more than happy riding around on one of the giants shoulders, making content almost evil little noises at all of the blue objects he had found along the way. It was.. Kinda spooky, truth be told.

Silv paused, a slightly dumbfounded look of his face at the moment as he spotted the reluctant party of people infront of him then had quite suddenly sprung forward down the path towards them with a small bellow. The blue man on his shoulder seemed quite gleeful at this one, whooping happily to encourage him faster.
"You two! What on earth! Mummy doesn't need walkies!! That's only the other people! It's far too cold for him you know!"

Silv took the last few steps up to Alva, dislodging the bird from his shoulder as he did so,
"Oh oh! Hey there, love! You gettin' all silly now, huh..?" He extended his arms, wrapping them firmly around his be-coated torso, lifting him up, then reacheing down to lift some of the thick coils still sitting on the cold floor,
"Don;t you worry, love, we'll get you home.. We'll wrap you up in bed, eh? And have nice warm things to drink, huh?" He nuzzled at Alva's particularly chilly ear with a small smile before winking at Senne and the direction he saw his daughter scuttle,
"COme on you two! I know you used to drag mum out to make him more cuddly for me, but you do know he's a lot more affectionate now, eh?" He chuckled as his silly kids. One day he hoped they'd try and think more than he did.
"I dun' know what you were planning on when you'd got him this far out, but you're welcome to go do it now! Or you can come home with me. Up to you kiddos! COme on love, lets get you somewhere warm.." He said planting a firm kiss to the nagas lips as he set off in the direction of what he hoped would be a warm house provided the twins had remembered to close the front door.

Fear, having been dislodged from the shires shoulder, took a little bit of a bid-air tumble as he landed on his feet, just about, in a flurry of feathers, wings, tail and braids. He stood a little wide eyed before clearing his throat and plastering his usual look of wickedness back across his face.. Then he saw them.. And they were wearing blue.. MAGPIES.
His grin broadened and he confidently started walking right up to the male magpie, the one who wasn't hiding.
"Hi there! I'm Fear.. You're.. Really blue.. I love you wings, cutie!"

Briar just looked a little confused really.. I mean.. Was Silv still walking him? Should he go home? Hell!

Vidal, sadly looked just as confused. He on the other hand trembled a little.

Silv smiled a little more as he made his way back home swiftly, carrying his lover with great ease.
"Hmm..? I've gotta go to bed too, huh? Well I wouldn't be too adverse to that, you know.." Again he nuzzled his nose and lips against whichever parts of the nagas face he could reach, which wasn't difficult considering how Alva had wrapped himself around his chest. He rubbed his hands up and down hi back and briefly along his scales, it worried him how cold he was.. Hopefully he wouldn't suffer too much because of this..
"You want a bath, love..?" He said smooching his ear and nuzzling behind it as the house came into view.

Fear grinned broadly and nodded, leaning closer, his focus mainly admittedly on the blue sheened feathers he could see on the wings just beyond the magpies shoulder.
"Sure! You are cute after all! And those wings, they have such a nice sheen to them.." He quirked an eyebrow his eyes flicking from the wings to Senne's eyes at last. He chuckled softly, "Sure I'm blue! I'm a bower bird! I love blue stuff!! And uh.. I didn't catch your name then.."

Briar startled a little standing as tall as he could.. Which wasn't very tall at all, giving the man quite the wide eyed look, his tail held high.
"Ah-Uh-Hi!" He all but squeaked at the lemur, where on earth had he popped up from??

Vidal gave pretty much the same sort of display, though he stood a little taller than his tiny adopted friend, his ears flicked as far forward as they would go, one hand instinctively twitching towards the thin sword he kept to hand.. Not that he WANTED to use the thing! Unlike Briar, he quaked a little, but only briefly before giving the lemur a wary but incredibly inquisitive look through his silver hair.

The shire smiled fondly down at his lover, shifting him a little in his arms "Of course I'm warm, love! It wouldn't do us any good if I were cold blooded as well would it? Then we'd be stuffed if the kids did this to us!"
He continued to mumble randomly at Alva as he booted open the front door to their house and proceeded to manuver the freezing naga in through the oddly narrow doorway and up the twisty stairs into their more expansive bathroom, where true to his word, the Shire started running a nice warm bath for them both, removing the flimsy coats from his beloved.
"There you go, love.. Getting better already, huh?" He asked, distractedly kissing his way along one of Alvas bared shoulders as he slid his usual black shirt off him.

Fear continued his slightly wicked little smile as his eyes darted back to the wings once more, lingering there for quite a time,
"Senne.. You know, that's an equally cute name! Mind if I.." His fingers twitches at the flight feathers, "Y'know.. " Again he eyed the magpies face again, hopefully this time, "I am glad you like my colours and shi-.. Stuff! Does it make ya' wanna let me stroke your wings?"

Briar just continued to stare for a moment longer at the lemur with the extended hand.. Then at the hand a little..
"Oh!" He almost jumped as he spoke, nervous taking the lemurs hand giving it a gentle squeeze then letting go again just as quickly, "Briar! M'Briar!" He mumbled quickly, fiddling with his braid quite swiftly after that.

Vidal started off in much the same way that Briar had, though he gave Morgans hand a more curious than scared look, though he was more hesitant to take the hand. His ears flicked forewards even more, then back, then one foreward towards him as at last he carefully, almost gingerly took his hand. "Vidal Devante.. " He told him, his voice very clear, but softly spoken.
