[Papa~ emotion_bigheart ]
Seth: *is amused to have been invited over to the mocktail's 'home' and does not decline the offer. Knocks lightly on the door before opening it a small bit* Hello? Did I make it on time? *hasn't seen Mirth in quite a while actually. Assumes she's been well*
Mirth: Come in~ *has decided the human-child sized chair is a loss and has had Kirel haul up one of her-sized chairs on top of the table, the better to see a sitting Hyte. Also, so he can see her pretty dress. It's been awhile since she's had company over and she's dressed to impress. The golden firelizard is curled up behind her, snoozing away, as Mirth sips tea out of a her-sized teacup* How do you do~? ^__^
Seth: I am well, and you? *smiles* You look lovely.
Mirth: Very well, thank you~ >w< *she can see why Dacj-mama fancies him. He's very nice~* Please sit down~ And help yourself to some tea if you'd like. *has a bigger teapot and cup for him* I'd pour but I'm very small XD;;
Seth: Why thank you. *sits down as best he can on the child-sized chair, but whereas it's too giant for /her/ it's a bit too small for him. Mostly just carefully perched on the edge of it* I don't mind pouring. How did you make the tea? =o *the pot was bigger than she was. Pours for her cup first*
Mirth: Auntie Missy helped. She picked out my dress too <3 Thank you for the tea. *sips some more* ...so, since you married my Mama... *was at the ceremony too of course, she just mostly slept through it XD; She didn't mean to be sleepy all the time, but sometimes it just couldn't be helped*
Seth: Ah, I see. And you're quite welcome. *pours himself some tea too to be polite. Ears perk curiously as she speaks again* Yes? *wonders what she's getting at*
Mirth: ...that makes you my papa, doesn't it? ^___^
Seth: *blinks a second before smiling* I suppose it sorta does. =) *<3* I hope you don't mind that. ^^;
Mirth: Oh, no, not at all~! Mama likes you very much, and you're very nice ^__^ But if you're going to be...er...are my papa, then we should play more often! *resolute nod*
Seth: *chuckles* That sounds fair. *takes a sip of the tea* What do you like to do aside from tea parties?
Mirth: Adventure! Well. It can be more quiet sorts of adventures if I'm really sleepy, but I like flying with Kirel and playing Princess Escaping The Tower and Dread Pirate of the Bathtub and all kinds of things~ We could play...hmmm...Stalking in the Savannah? :3
Seth: *chuckles* Those do all sound like quite exciting games. XD *Oh childhood imagination... He wondered if he might have ever developed that had he been a kid longer* How does that game work?
Mirth: Mm, they're really fun! *looks thoughtful, adopting the same finger-tapping-lip pose Dacj has* Well. First, we may want to go outside in the grass. So I'd have to change first, really. And second...well. We could play cheetah-and-gazelle or cheetah papa teaching cub to hunt~ ^___^ *tailors it to cheetahs 'cuze obviously that's what Seth is gonna like*
Seth: *is pretty much just amused really* Hmm... If Kirel was awake we could always tailor it to be a hunt for the wild Kirel. wink I could even bring Ruby along if you'd like.
Mirth: Oooh, that would be even better! I like it when Ruby visits to play <3
Seth: Well then, we'll have to do that. =) This is rather nice tea though, I must say. Thank you again for inviting me.
Mirth: You're welcome. I'm glad you came~ Maybe sometime I can come sleep over at your and Mama's other place? :3
Seth: Ah, sure. ^_^ We wouldn't mind having you over. *they'd just keep their sleeping limited to cuddling was all* It's not quite as nice as the treehouse though.
Mirth: Oh, I'm sure it's plenty lovely. Mama's been living there for awhile now, right? XD She likes decorating things~ *gestures to Mirth's own rooms*
Seth: *chuckles* Well she's certainly made the place more homey, but I'd still say the treehouse looks nice.
Mirth: It is nice~ Kirel flies me up there when I want to visit <3 I don't think we could fly to your other place though, it's too far and I'm not allowed between ^^;;
Seth: Ah. ^^;; *probably a safe restriction to have* Well, when you want to come over we can give you a ride you know. =)
Mirth: I was counting on it~ Shoulders are very comfy things. Mama has a bag I can curl up to nap in too. She says it might be claus...claustrophobic for some people, but I don't mind it~
Seth: That's a good thing then; otherwise you wouldn't have a bag for napping, yes? XD *he'd take her word on the shoulder thing*
Mirth: Mmm~ *sets tea cup aside and hops off her mini chair on top of the table* So, in the meantime, since Kirel is napping, what should we do? :3
Seth: Well, I'd say perhaps a tour of your home, but I can't quite fit in the other rooms. ^^;
Mirth: If you put me on your shoulder, I can show you the catch that makes the wall on this side come up. That's how Mama plays with me when she comes over. She says it's like a reallyreally big dollhouse~
Seth: Ah, sure. ^__^ *carefully offers her a step up onto his hands so that he can lift her to his shoulder before standing up* So, which room shall we go to first?
Mirth: *making sure she is firmly on his shoulder and keeps a gentle hold on a length of spotted hair the better to keep her perch. That situated, she leans forward to give the Hyte a kiss on the cheek. Papas get kisses, after all~* <3 We can start at the top then~ My bedroom has strawberries on the wallpaper~ <3
Seth: *faint happy flush, but nods and heads over to the indicated room. Once she's instructed him on how to open up the wall he does so, revealing a very doolhouse-esque type of set-up indeed* Oooh, very nice. =) Did you choose the wallpaper?
Mirth: Mmhmm! Strawberries are my favorite. *fingers strawberry clip in her hair* My drink is made out of lots of sweet things, after all~ <3
Seth: *amused* Is that why you're so sweet then? *playful pun*
Mirth: It could very well be~ ^__^ *pulls a tiny pout* But you don't like eating sweet things, Mama said so :<
Seth: *laughs* Isn't that a good thing for you then? XD *kidding*
Mirth: I thought you might not like sweet things at all <<; *leans against Seth best she can from her shoulder perch* I don't think I taste much like my drink XD; And no one, not even Mama, ever tried to drink me when I was one, so...
Seth: *shakes* I don't think that was something that would have been worth the risk. ^^; And the only sweet things I'm not fond of is /taste/. All other forms of 'sweet' are fine though. =)
Mirth: That Mama didn't tells you it wasn't. She's the type to sneak a sip if she thought it would be okay XD;; And I'm glad to hear it~ *yawns as she snuggles against his neck*
Seth: *amused smile* Are you sure you wouldn't rather take a nap? There's no rush to play. *and she certainly had always been a very sleepy little mocktail*
Mirth: But then I'm not... *yawn* ...being a good hostess :< *won't deny she's sleepy though*
Seth: You've been a perfectly fine hostess. ^^ Would it not be better to rest now than to fall asleep later in the middle of something?
Mirth: I suppose ^^;; Wouldn't you get bored though?
Seth: *shakes head* Not at all. ^^ I wouldn't mind taking a nap myself. *and if he actually got 'bored' he could just text Dacj or something*
Mirth: I'm sure you can use the guest bedroom~ Since it's not very comfortable to try and sleep in here on the floor XD; If it's really okay...I guess I should go ahead, so I'm ready to play with all my energy when I wake up!
Seth: I'm a cat. I can sleep pretty much anywhere. XD And whether you wish to stay on my shoulder or sleep in your own bed is up to you. =) *has the advantage of purring, but won't bring that up just yet*
Mirth: Trees even? Other than Mama's treehouse, I mean~ *looks thoughtful again* Maybe in the crook of your arm, if it's not too much trouble ^^ *shoulder-sleeping was doable, but somewhat precarious and she didn't want him to worry about her if he was napping too*
Seth: I haven't really 'tried' a tree, but I probably could, yes. =) And my arm's no trouble. Let me just close up your room here first. *puts her wall back into place before finding a comfy corner to sit and lean against* Need help getting down?
Mirth: I can do it myself ^__^ *carefully turns around so she can start climbing down feet first, hands gripping the fabric of his shirt carefully until she feels somewhat steadied by his hand beneath her feet*
Seth: *is careful not to let her fall as they both get into position* Comfortable there?
Mirth: *sits on his arm, turning in towards him with a happy, sleepy smile* Mmm~ It's very comfortable here. *he was warm like Mama <3 *
Seth: *warm smile* Sleep well then. *begins to purr very softly to help lull her to sleep*
Mirth: *yawns* You...too...Papa... *her eyes flutter closed as he begins to purr, and the soft rumblings made more audible by her leaning in close are very pleasant sounds that have her dreaming in no time at all~*
Seth: *the purrs become less of a conscious effort as she falls asleep, and he can't really help the warm happy feelings from being called 'papa'. Lays his head back against the wall, but it will probably be a while before he himself falls asleep, if at all. He didn't want to risk dropping her*
