The little girl parroted her daemon. "Fun?" Sera asked with a smile, crawling over to where Lysium was sitting. She didn't know where her mommy was either, but she was sure that the woman was somewhere close by where she could still see Sera. It's not like the gypsy would leave her behind somewhere. She was curious about Lysium's pout, however, and imitated it while somehow still looking curious. Why was Lysium pouting?
Seduire, despite having a beak and not lips, give a birdy smile. Good! Again? The crane looked at Sera. She thought about it for a moment and shook her head. Somethin' else! She answered him, although she knew Lysium couldn't hear any of this. Maybe the older girl would just take the initiative? Maybe? Hopefully? Sera didn't know what else there was to do besides run around like the other kids!
Crescentia blinked. "..I do?" She sat up and let go of Faiga, leaning forward a little in her seat to watch his face. He was blushing so hard. "How? Why?" The gypsy honestly was curious...and clueless.

Lysium turned to look at Sera and shrugged. She didn't know if it was fun, but it probably had been alright. What she really liked was making stuff. Perhaps they could walk around and find precious things? Treasure hunt, Shiver?
The cat was glad to get distracted and shook his head. I would, but Lys has another idea. In fact he was sure that she had just saved his life.
"How 'bout...we go 'round and look for nice things to keep." She sometimes did that with nice stones on the Chocobo Farm. In this place they could find soo much!
Faiga sighed. He didn't really know how to lie good and so he probably had to be honest with her. Although it hurt his manly pride somehow. "Yes, you are...very beautiful and you touch me all the time. It's like...driving me crazy. I'm not used to it, I'm only living with birds to know. You probably recognised it by my smell." He lowered his head wondering if she would pick up Sera now and leave, quickly.

"'Kay!" Sera smiled big and pushed herself to her feet, and looking around. It'd take a lot of looking to find cool stuff! But that was half the fun, wasn't it?
Seduire perked up a bit when the girls decided they were going to do something else. Finally! No more going up and down! It was starting to hurt his still-developing wings! Seraphine took a moment to look around for their parents and make sure they were indeed still around and hadn't forgotten them. What a silly thought! How could Crescentia ever forget her? She was content with seeing them sitting with the other parents, although Sera did find it a little odd not to see her mother cuddling with Faiga like she cuddled with everyone else she was talking with. "Lessgooooo~!" Sera suddenly cheered, grabbing Lysium's hand and waiting for the older girl to lead the way. This treasure hunt was her idea after all! Maybe they'd find things that other little kids had dropped and lost!
The gypsy listened quietly to Faiga's explanation about his nervousness around her, propping her chin up in the palm of her hand. So it was just because of how she was? Oh dear...hm...he didn't seem hate it...he just wasn't used to affection? How sad! Crescentia smiled softly when he finished, leaning close for a moment to bury her face into his chest. "Birds must smell pretty good then!" She teased, sitting up again. "So I drive you crazy? I'm sorry, Faiga...it's just the way I am." Crescentia shrugged. "Would you like me to stop?"

Lysium was glad that the younger girl accepted her idea so willingly and gave Shiver a sign to follow. The cat made sure that he DIDN'T follow the sign and waited a few seconds before running after them.
So you know why everyone is a bird or a cat, but only one is a colour changing one? He tried to make some conversation with Seduire, although the question probably wouldn't make sense to the bird.
Quickly they moved towards a large area where lots of parents seemed to hang around. In fact it was the coffee shop. Lysium was sure that big people also had bigger treasures. At least Faiga had more nice things than she called her own. Pointing at some empty seats she nodded. "You and bird look down, we look up! Good? It was very unusual for her to talk so much, but she really liked that game.
That was a compliment, right? Faiga smiled faintly and then looked at the buried face right below his chin. Probably he just had to..."No, I will get used to it. I guess, one day." She just couldn't expect him to react in any way. He couldn't. "By the way...where did the kids go?"

Color changing? Seduire blinked and watched the cat curiously. Everyone was a bird or a cat? But only one was color changing? Was this a riddle or something? What do you mean? He asked as he shook a little, checking his feathers to make sure they were all properly in place. The crane hung back with Shiver, clearly interested in what the cat had to say since he seemed to be the most...sane daemon Seduire had met so far. Forget the fact that he's really only briefly met two others!
Sera toddled along beside Lysium as they walked up to the coffee shop, slowing down a little with a frown. They were leaving the playground? The young girl glanced back at where she'd last seen Faiga and Crescentia, looking a little wary of being out of her mother's sight...but if she stayed with Lysium and Shiver it'd be okay...right? Of course! Nothing bad could ever happen with all these adults around! How silly of her to think such a thing. After a moment of thought Sera smiled and nodded, getting down on her hands and knees to crawl so she was closer to the ground to see things; this felt more comfortable anyway. She was still getting used to walking. "'Kay!"
Be careful, Sera. Seduire tugged at one of the girl's blonde curls as a tiny warning to stay close to him. I will, Seduire! Don't worry!
Faiga was right to think of her comment as a compliment. "Alright then. I can wait for that!" Crescentia pressed another kiss to the man's cheek, giggling softly. "Thank you very much for telling me how you feel." His question didn't destroy her smile...yet. "Oh, that's easy. They're playing on the sl...ide?" When Crescentia had looked up to check the line for the slide she didn't see a bird, a cat, a pale girl in a colorful dress or her cute little ballerina! ...They were there two seconds ago! The gypsy blinked. "...But...but they were just...!" They were just there! They were little! Their legs were small! How could they have gotten out of sight so quickly?!

Shiver stopped to look at the bird. How was he able to explain it? You know, people like us. I met others and all of them were big cats and lots of birds, like you. And one...one was small with a tongue and was able to change her colour! He actually referred to Stealth, Althalus' lizard. He didn't know how the animal was called though, which made him feel a bit twitchy.
The daemon didn't seem to be a worried one. He quickly jumped onto the seat and looked down. Lysium followed him slowly, always making sure that her dress didn't get damaged. It was her favourite one and she feared that Faiga would buy something she didn't like. He was good at that. Golden eyes were looking for anything special. "Do you see something good?"
The father didn't think about her words, but finally became worried. Damn, how could he have forgotten to look after the malicious cat and Lysium once in a while? "They can't be far. I bet they went towards another kind of game. Let's look at the ball pit, Lysium once played there with somebody else." She seemed scared so he grabbed her hand and got up. "I bet they're alright. Lysium often strolls around alone on the farm."

Oh...I haven't met many others. Just a whale and a dragon. You're the first cat I've met. Seduire blinked. A small cat with a tongue and was able to change color? Weird! He'd have to meet this small, color changing cat with...a tongue...didn't all cats have tongues? Odd.
Seduire stayed close to Sera as they searched under chairs and tables, jumping a little when Sera startled a woman whose table she was crawling under. Careful! The crane warned again, stopping momentarily to pick up something shiny that'd caught his eye and putting it in front of his girl for her to find. Sera spotted it right as Lysium asked if she'd found anything. "Uh huh!" She sat down and held the item up in the palm of her open hand for Lysium to see; it was an earring someone must have lost without noticing. Just a dangly one with a bunch of loops and dots. "Good?" Sera asked excitedly, obviously proud of her find.
Faiga wasn't the only one at fault though! Crescentia had meant to check on them while he was speaking to her but...well...she forgot. "Sera hasn't played in a ball pit yet...so maybe..." It'd probably be easier for her to keep an eye out for the crane if that's where they were. She doubted Seduire would want to muss up his feathers in a ball pit. Probably wasn't a good activity for a bird anyway. The gypsy was faintly surprised when it was Faiga who grabbed her hand this time, but she still got up and followed him without a word of protest or comment. "She does? But there're people here..." Sera had sense enough to stay away from strangers for now at least.

What's a whale? Shiver asked while he climbed one of the tables and started chewing on a piece of cookie. It was quite delicious, but before he announced that he had found it, it was already gone. What a pity.
Lysium instead looked at the dangling thing and nodded approvingly. "Good. Not so nice, but ok. We need more." Quickly she grabbed one of the plastic spoons which lay on the table and tried to rub it dry on Shiver's fur.
Finally she was taking care of his fur! The daemon started to purr because of the treatment until he realised that something was STUCK in his hair. A spoon thing...
"That's indeed a good point." Faiga mumbled and allowed his eyes to take a pleasant journey through children and annoyed parents. There were people everywhere! Moving towards the ballpit he quickly noticed that no cat was to be seen - no cat, no Lys. Soon he started to become worried. "Ehm...any idea?"

It's...like a fish! Except it breathes air and its tail goes up and down, and it's bigger. Much bigger. The crane explained as best as he could. Watching Shiver eat a piece of cookie he'd found. Lucky! He wanted one too! Seduire lowered his head to peek under tables and chairs need them, giving a tiny squawk of pleasure when he found a large chunk of muffin. Perfect!
Sera blinked and looked at the earring. "Nosso nice?" She thought it was nice! Oh well, maybe Lysium knew better since she was older. The little girl giggled when Lysium stuck a spoon on her kitty, holding the earring carefully as she looked around for something else they could have. Adults dropped stuff a lot!
There wasn't even a single feather at the ballpit. Crescentia frowned and hugged Faiga's arm against her, looking carefully at every area she could see just from where she was standing. "Ooh! I'm such a terrible mother!" The gypsy sighed. Her mother never lost her like this. Somehow through all her worry she still smelled the cookies and muffins at the coffee shop; those smelled good! "...Sera likes cookies." She murmured suddenly, staring at the coffee shop sign she could see over the heads of other people.

Cool...fish. Fish is tasty. Faiga had given him one once and he had really enjoyed it. He had to ask Lysium if she could ask the man to give him one again. Do you like fish?
Lysium didn't intend to comment on the earring furthermore and rather looked around for more stuff. There was a coin. Now they could make something out of it. Ripping the spoon out of Shiver's fur without much damage, but with a lot of complaining on the daemon's side she asked for the earring. "We make a pretty thing. For you."
Faiga was bad at comforting people, but he tried his best to pad her shoulder lightly. "No, you're not. You're worried about her, bad mother's wouldn't be worried." Turning to look at the coffee shop he nodded. "Let's go and take a look there then."

Seduire gave a birdlike shrug. I haven't had fish yet. But it smelled and sounded like it'd be delicious! Perhaps he'd bug Sera to bug Crescentia into buying some with her adorable charms. The crane glanced at Sera for a moment...it could work.
"Meee?" She giggled and clapped with delight, smiling brightly. "Yaaaay!" A pretty thing for her! How nice of Lysium! But what would they make with a coin, a spoon, an earring and anything else they'd find here? Sera thought about what could possibly be made with this stuff as she handed over the earring to her new friend.
Crescentia smiled a little at Faiga's words; he was right, a bad mother wouldn't worry...how sad. She barely waited for Faiga's answer to her suggestion as she grabbed his hand and quickly led him to the coffee shop, blatantly ignoring parents she had to push past. You don't anger a worried gypsy! She'll curse you or something. The gypsy gasped loudly when she saw Seduire's head, letting go of Faiga to pick up Sera in a tight hug. "Here you are!"

We have fish in a pond, but those are not for eating. You need to go to a place called "market". There you find fish. Shiver said quite proudly. The little daemon was content that he had knowledge Seduire hadn't.
"Yes." Lysium replied firmly and accepted the earring with a slightly pleased smile. Quickly she bent the spoon and split its shaft into two pieces. Then she wrapped the white stuff around the earrings edges and as strange as it seemed it appeared to hold quite well. The coin was also attached to the earrings centre. Lysium didn't know HOW it worked, but it worked well and soon there was a white earring with loops and dots and a coin attached to it.
Just as she had finished she noticed that Sera was hugged by somebody. It was her Mommy! Frowning a bit she handed it over to the younger one quickly and looked at Faiga who smiled at her. "There you are, Lysium. What have you been doing here?"
"Earring." The Forgotten Document mumbled and was pulled onto her feet by her father. Shiver watched the prodecure cautiously. "I guess its time for a bath at home." Faiga announced.

I just haven't had the chance to try it. Of course Seduire knew about fish markets and ponds having fish, but he was too busy looking after his girl to worry about tasting fish. He'd try it one day. He'd just have to ask Sera to try and get him some...somehow...not sure how she'd do it.
Sera gasped and watched Lysium construct something with the objects she was given, her mouth forming a little 'o'. Wow! That was amazing! How did Lysium get the spoon to wrap around the earring like that? And then get the coin to stick in the middle? "Ooh!" Sera took the object when her new friend gave it to her, squirming a little at the displeasure of her mother suddenly coming up behind her and taking her away from her fun. MOMMY! She whined, ignoring Seduire's 'she can't hear you' comment.
"How lovely, Lysium!" Crescentia smiled, rubbing her cheek against Sera's. "Did she make that for you?" Sera nodded and grinned down at Lysium. She blinked when Lysium's father said it was time to go home for a bath, whining and opening her arms to Lysium for a hug, squirming against her mother even more.
"Noooo!" She whined stubbornly, pouting. Sera could see her mother nodding in agreement with Faiga until she'd whined and struggled; they were going home?! No fair!
"Ma cher, we have to go get your sister. You wouldn't want to leave her all alone, would you? Besides, you'll see each other again soon! And the three of you can play together!" Crescentia wasn't going to miss out on seeing the baby chocobo. Sera frowned a little more and gave in, hugging the object carefully to her chest. The little girl blinked when she was suddenly very close to Faiga for a brief moment, missing the kiss her mother had pressed to the corner of his mouth. "Commiato, dear Faiga, little Lysium, little Shiver." She giggled, waving with Sera as she walked away. Sera was still pouting the entire time.

Shiver nodded at Seduire and wished him the best to try fish one day. Then he quickly moved close to Faiga so he prevented being left behind. It looked like they wanted to go.
Lysium pouted a bit because they had been interrupted, but as she noticed the inevitable situation she just waved at Sera. There was nothing they could do about it and the other one had tried quite enough. Hopeless.
Her father didn't seem to notice anything anyway. Since Sera's mother had kissed him he seemed to be in a state of strange happiness. "Bath?" The Forgotten asked him as the others were gone for a while already and he was still standing there smiling.
Quite startled the man shook his head and then smiled at the Forgotten. "Yes, yes, sure." Lysium frowned. Parents were truly strange.
