Llujah waited until the twins and their mother boarded the car before he climbed on. Once they were all settled and buckled in, the car began to ascend into the sky. They gradually rose higher and higher and higher until Llu could see the orange and red stained ocean as the sun slowly set behind it. The city glowed softly with candle-like lights. Llu's eyes sparkled with delight. What a wonderful memory this would make...
He blinked. Iridian had asked him a question and he wasn't paying attention. He turned his focus back around to the toddler and laughed awkwardly. He smiled. "No, I've never been on a Ferris wheel before. It's such a gorgeous view." As he spoke, the spawn had realized that he had not introduced himself to the twins and their guardian.
"Whoops... I forgot to say what my name was! Sorry!" He scratched the back of his head and smiled once more. "It's Llujah. Llujah Malikov."

As the wheel started to take steps further and further skyward, Iridian began to get more and more fidgety. After all, the ride was still being boarded, and he wanted it to spin faster! They weren't to the top yet! To taper off the energy, he started playing with the buckle, tempted to unfasten it but deciding against it, if only for now. After all, his mom was eyeing him when she heard the clicking of the metal under the toddler's twitching hand.
Cheyenne, meanwhile, had cringed when he noticed the sun hadn't gone down yet; it looked darker on the ground than it did from the air! To counter it, he pulled down on the ear flaps of his hat, which slid his snowy bangs in front of his eyes like a screen. Simultaneously, he slid further down in his seat, a failed attempt at using the wall of the seat as a buffer against the setting sun, unintentionally leaning further into Otomeza to hide. At least the sun goes away fast... he grumbled to himself, hoping the ride didn't also make him feel sick.
Leaning over to see the view that Llu was talking about, Iridian managed to peek over enough to see all the lights of the amusement park from their vantage point. With a gasp and a wag of his stubby finned tail, like an overexcited puppy, he exclaimed, "Lookit all the fireflies!" Of course, he was referring to the rainbow of lights spread beneath him, but he wasn't very good at explaining the use of his imagination. "I never been on one a'fore, either! Is like we flying!" he added with a giggle, twitching the frame of his wings in emphasis.
Tilting his head to the side, Iridian tried to form the word in his mouth before trying to spit it out. "Loo-hah?" he tried, lingering on the vowels a little too long. Oh well; either way, he liked the name! Even if he needed the practice with pronouncing it.
Otomeza snickered at the toddler's attempt, shaking her head at the boy's first try in amusement. "Well it's lovely to meet you, Llujah Malikov," she stated with a sharp nod.
"Almos' to the staaars~!" Iridian nearly interrupted, trying to reach up to grab at one. His functional eye did tend to lie to him about the nearness of certain objects, but it was unclear whether or not this was one of those cases, or a case of wanting more attention. Otomeza was keeping a sharp eye on the rowdy kid, making sure he didn't try to hop up or something.
