At length, Mauli tramped back in, placing a stack of painting paper on the table, and a cup of brushes and water beside the stack. Then, arranging a small container of watercolor palletes between the two things, she grinned, changing back to her adult stage.
"Have fun." Then, with that, she padded back to Isto, sitting down. "So, fifth stage item... When d'you think you'll use it?"
Remy beamed, then grabbed a brush, winking at Banda. "Dig in!"

Isto didn't notice that Mauli had returned until she spoke, slowly looking up at the sound of her voice. He shrugs slightly, opening his fist and dropping the item-- a small screw-- on the floor. "I dunno. I'm not sure if I will use it, actually."
Banda hadn't been paying enough attention to know exactly what Remy said, but he knew it was something along the lines of 'Go ahead and paint!'. Glancing around the newly delivered items, he picks up a paintbrush and reaches for the watercolors, picking one color and beginning to paint.

"Why not?" Mauli stared at the small screw, hunching down to get a closer look. "The fifth stage is awesome... You get opposable thumbs, and you can always change back to the adult stage whenever you want. I'm sure we could find a way to use the screw that would stay..." She then looked from Isto's paw to his skull, eyes shining, as if they were pleading.
Remy began to paint as well, his brow furrowing as he dipped the wet brush from the red color to the paper. Now to the blue... and then the yellow... and why was his brush suddenly making everything brown?!

"You don't think..." He pauses, hesitating, eyes turning back to the screw. "...it's some kind of joke? You get fifth stage items based on your personality...your interests... but mine's neither. I got a screw." He scowls, glaring down at the little piece of metal. "And a bunch of the keepers made fun of me for it. You don't think it's a joke? QS could have easily just dug around a drawer and found a screw and thought 'Let's mess with Isto's mind'. What if I try to use it and nothing ever happens...?"
Banda was thoroughly enjoying himself, switching from one color to another, frequently washing clean his brush. The picture was slowly forming..nothing. But it was rather pretty, nonetheless.

"I don't think QS is that mean." Mauli shrugs. "'Sides, I think it's ingenius. And even if she is just being mean... You'll never know until you try, right? You could put it on without anyone ever knowing, cover it up with something shiny, or a glove maybe... And, in a week, if you haven't changed or felt anything, no one had to ever know you had used it."
Still, Remy's brush would only give him brown, and he was getting rather frustrated. It wasn't even a pretty brown! Just a baby-poop colored one.

Essence smiled as they exited, breathing in the fresh air. It was nice to finally get out. She started to sing softly to herself, as she was feeling a little down as of late.
"He's holding back, he's hiding, from what I can't decide. Why won't he be the king I know he is, the king I see inside? Can you feel the love tonight ..."
She trailed off, smiling at Odd. She felt slightly embarrased, staring up at the sky above.

Hanyuu stopped in front of the dens door. Staring at the cat flap as it swayed back and forth. "I'm not even going to try..." she sighed as she turned around and made her way around the back of the HQ's building, looking for the open window to the playroom, or den.
Looking upwards she seen there was a window open so hopped up onto its ledge, pawing at the window to open it wide enough for her newly large body to fit through. "Excess large'ness can be a pain..." she whimpered sarcastically as she led down on the window sill and looked around the playroom.

Outside, Endymion decided not to magically poof herself into the HQ today, instead, several cracks of a whip were heard, until Endymion was able to have it latch onto the doorknob. With a pull, the door opened up and as she let the whip go limp, it slipped off the knob like water. She stepped inside, a haughty air about her. Hannah gently floated around Endy, afraid of the whip. It had a very painful side effect for anyone but Endy who touched it. "Good...nobody here...time for cookies," Endymion spoke to herself, heading from the main room to the kitchen.

"Something leather hitting wood..." Once again Hanyuu's hearing didn't let her down, if anything her senses had become more in tuned to the world around her. "Maybe an item acquired, or maybe a shoe lace. A wood cutter chopping wood, or someone horse riding..." She mumbled onto herself, as she stayed deathly still and gazed around the playroom. Although she seen nothing she felt the presence of someone, or something. Most likely a Skull Monkey.
"Can I be bothered to see?" she almost silently asked herself as she seen movement in the direction of the kitchen. "Lay low Mr Curiosity" She told herself as her tail picked up its inquisitive wagging rhythm.
[ Shower time, Be back in 20 mins or somerthing, NaH'. ]

Essence sub-consciously poked her head once more, and almost fell in shock. She had, a Skull? She started to breath heavily, her heart racing. She had a Skull. After all the waiting, and the poking, she had a Skull. She broke into song, and started to dance, wiggling her hips.
"I feel good, I knew that I would now .. I feeel good. I know that I should now. So good, so good .. I've got you."
She fell down onto her back, giggling sighing heavily. Finally, she could relax, and read without that though in the back of her head. Finally, she had a skull.

((*Figures that HQ means the lake outside of HQ as well* o.<))
The day was surprisingly nice, one of the few sunny ones that happened to grace the HQ. Isto hardly noticed. He was more concerned with the tiny screw resting on a rock near the water. Sure, it didn't look significant, but fifth stage items were a lot more then they appeared. And he still wasn't sure if he wanted to use it or not. Figures, don't it?

Essence glanced over from her sing and dance number at Isto, raising an eyebrow slightly. She sat upstraight, moving over to him, tilting her head. "Right then .. Why are you staring at a Screw? On .. a rock?" She asked, giving him a worried glance.
