Damien's eyes rolled with Syrea's words when she started with 'I say...'. She had the best, funnest ideas, didn't she now? Of course Dai's sarcastic assumptions wouldn't be sensible in the eyes of another foal, because his idea of fun no doubt differed from others'.
Quarter Kalona blood really said a lot in means of play. He and his sister 'played' by way of friendly duels when their grandparents weren't watching. Damien smirked thinking about it; How childish and stupid foolish foal games looked from his perspective.. But they were children, and he couldn't forget that! Van and Taigi always told him that he was the brother so he had to take care of his sister, and this made him feel significantly older and more responsible, even though Cecilia hardly needed taking care of.
And aside from this fact that he felt responsible and tough, he had adventures every day. This in itself was an adventure, as a matter of fact! Living, meeting new Soquili, these were all parts of one grand adventure called life. But for once he didn't voice his opinion and did a very un-Damien thing, smiling and saying, "okay." Because, feeling responsible as he did all of a sudden, he felt a need to play with these foalish foals with whom he didn't feel like he belonged, yet somehow did.
