Faisal laughed at his brother's ideas, "Sure, sure!" It would probably be far less painful too. Fai made a face before wobbling forward with his arms full of cherries. Already he could feel some of them smacking against his arms covering them with the sweet red juice as he accidentally hugged them too hard. Still he simply tried to do a strangely tuned hum as they moved forward. Fa, la, la, ta, daaaa~Then they were looking at the trees and as Fai let go of his bundle of fruit the boy pursed his lips thoughtfully, "Uh....hrm." He took a step away from the pile of cherries before closing his eyes and carefully spinning, "Tell me when to stop Dair and we'll go with that tree!" He just hoped his brother said stop soon else he would fall down again from being dizzy, whoooo!

Glancing over his shoulder as his brother set to humming he found himself asking, "Practicing to be a Bard, Fai?" Something that he couldn't help but to grin at. His brother was cute and his singing was good in Dair's mind, meaning he bet he'd make a good one and get all kinds of fans! Then again he was also extremely biased since his twin was his favorite person in the world so no matter what he did he felt that Fai would likely be the best at it... well, second to Dair at least who felt he was the best at all things ever! His ego talking loudly along with that thought. "Will do!" He said, giving a huge grin as his brother set to spinning. He waited and waited... and waited, leaving him to spin for a while before he announced loudly, "GO!" He was curious to see if his brother even made it to a tree after he was left spinning for so long... though if he did it would only prove that his brother was the best brother in the history of ever. If he failed he'd still remain the cutest brother, a good second place award.

Fai laughed, "You think?" The boy shook his head, "I couldn't be a bard though cause I like swords too much!" He loved how their father stood so proudly with a weapon - how could he not aspire to have something like that one day? Even though he loved music the idea of running after someone with a flute or a harp didn't seem quite the same. Though the images that flashed through his mind made him giggle, "Death by a flute, could you imagine?" Ugh he was so dizzy! "Daaaaaaaaaair." The name came out as a groan as Faisal wobbled on his feet and eventually smacked a hand into a tree, "You shoulda....stopped me sooner." His vision spinning the boy twisted as he flopped onto the ground, "Everything is flyiiiiiiiiiiiiing." Who knew that the plum trees could be so twisted looking and that the sky was actually the ground. Maybe he should spin more often if that was how he could see the world! Faisal laughed at the thought before rolling around some more and finally sitting up, "You climb first and I'll follow?"

"Death by flute would be an embarrassing way for someone to go." He agreed, giving a bit of a laugh as his brother struggled to keep himself up right despite how long Dair had left him to spin. As he was told he should have stopped him sooner he said, "Well, this makes it more interesting! Funnier too." Trotting over to his brother who was standing by the tree he gave him a pat on the head before he did as he Fai asked, heading up the tree first. He'd leave his brother to get his barrings back while he went up first, "Let's see what we can find from up here and then we can start painting with the over ripe cherries that we found." He said as he scaled the tree, taking it slowly enough that he wouldn't fall, but not too slow. He didn't want to spend all his time just clinging to the tree. Once he was up he looked down at his brother and asked, "You doing alright? Ready to join me?"

"Hahaha." Faisal pursed his lips at his brother's humor, "Next time you get ta spin and I'll say when you stop." He would have him spin for days if it were possible. Though Fai grinned at the thought since he did enjoy a little bit of that spinning from earlier. Not too much though else I'll never see straight again! He joked before watching his brother scale the tree before them, "I dunno, I could just catch them as you toss 'em." He joked lightly, "What do you think, Dair?" Maybe that way they could save more without all of them going squish against the ground. Though climbing was fun...but his butt was still pretty sore. Not that he would ever admit weakness to his brother! Nope, nope, and nope.

"You can always try spinning in the opposite direction! I've heard that if you do it will like... undizzify you." He said, making up the word but at least the idea of how to go about fixing his dizzyness should work. Maybe? He wasn't a professional when it came to such things so it was just him going off what he'd heard. Giving a curious sound he thought about it, then nodded, "I could probably do that. Let's see how many of them you can catch." He said as he picked a few of the plums. He tossed them up and down in his hands, then dropped one of them down to his twin brother. He'd take it easy on him at first, only dropping them one at a time, and if he did well he'd be sure to increase how many of them he dropped, just to test him.

"Show me how that works first and I'll do it." Teased Faisal in turn. Even though he loved his brother dearly the boy was still cautious about doing anymore spinning. At least for the rest of the day, maybe tomorrow he would spin and spin and then try that reverse-thingy-magig that his brother suggested. "Mk, let's do this thing!" Faisal opened his arms wide in preparation before pausing, "Don't try to burst them on me either!" He protested before moving forward to grab at the ones that were already beginning to drop. Sure there was one or two casualties but for the most part Faisal managed to cradle them in his arms before allowing them to gently tumble to the ground. "Dair we'll be here until we're older than mama and papa at this rate so come on! I'm ready~!"

Dair starred down at his brother, seeming to be debating over Fai's words, before he said, "Well, I can't really do that since I'm already up here. It'd be pretty difficult for me to go about spinning while I am up in a tree." That was a good a reason as any for why he wasn't able to try out the spinning experiment on himself. He'd leave it up for Fai to discover if it was even true or not. "I won't throw them at you, Fai, I promise! I will only drop them so that it's easier for you to..." He trailed off, then starred at him, "Oh? Is that so? Here I was trying to be nice but if you want to be like that then I will start dropping them more quickly." With that he set about dropping the fruit a little faster, curious if his brother would even get half of them. It was fine though since they'd have been just dropping them on the ground anyway if Fai had come up the tree with him.

"Later then." Called up Faisal, "We'll see who can spin and then de-dizzifi themselves first" Was that even the word his brother had used earlier? Oh well it was still something that seemed fun! Just not at the moment since he really was already struggling with keeping his gaze straight due to all the falling fruits. Oh what had he asked for? Faisal let out a squeak as he started to weave in between the falling fruits, "Got it, got it, got it!" Eventually the words blurred as he continued to drip fruits from his arms that were overflowing. Though not everything hit his arm as some rolled around his feet and one even managed to somehow land on his head and dripped down his dreads and his back. Oh well, at least he would smell super sweet! Eventually the boy stumbled over some and tipped the rest into the pile by accident. Some squished a bit, but for the most part he had a decent pile of actual salvaged plums. "Hah! What do you think Dair?" He panted as he caught one final fruit, "Is this enough for everyone?" He grinned upwards towards his brother as a piece of plum slowly fell from his hair and plopped onto the ground next to his feet.

"Hmmm... well, sounds like a thing that we should at least try once." While he was all for tricking Fai into spinning forever he felt that it wasn't something he could pass up when it was made into a challenge. He would have to participate to see who could make themselves not dizzy the fastest. The rain of fruit continued until Fai asked if there was enough for everyone. He stopped picking them so that he could look down at his brother who was splattered in the fruit that he couldn't catch before he gave a bit of a laugh, "I'm not sure, probably? I mean we do have both those and the cherries, so I think that there should be enough now." With that he set to climbing his way back down, grinning once his feet hit the ground again, "Made it!" He really was the best! Giving a smile he asked of his twin brother, "So! Should we bring them to Mom and Gram now? Or should we do our cherry paintings first?"

Fai grinned with excitement. Another thing to look forward to! If anything while he loved his brother he also loved competition. It was always fun to see who could beat the other in a new game! He would have to try his best to win though since Dair could kick his tail on occasion, not that he would openly admit to that though of course. And who knew maybe Fai would be the best at spinning? Only time would tell and he would maybe even train in secret to try and get a head start on Dair! He waited until his brother was next to him before playfully shaking his head free of the pieces of fruit and the juices. Just like some wet animal he made certain to get some splash damage in before stopping to laugh, "Paintings of course cause I don't know if we can come back outside right away so why not?" He managed before taking a few steps backwards to hide behind the fruit from his recently splashed brother, "Let's push these into a safe spot and then take others with us for the paintings!"

Dair nodded his head, "Yeah... that's true." Given the fact that the two of them were dirty from their trips up the tree and stained by the fruit it would be likely that they'd end up getting tossed in the tub. There was nothing worse then that... save for maybe those times that his mother tried to pin him down so she could do his hair. Giving a slight shake of his head he decided not to think about that right now even though their ultimate fate today would be that awful bath. He move to poke at some of the cherries, deciding which ones were the best for painting, and gathered those ones up into one hand. Once he picked out his painting berries he then set to moving the rest of the fruit in a shady, out of the way place, not wanting it to get stolen or stepped on. Giving a grin he looked at Fai and said, "Alright! It's painting time, Fai! Let's make all of the best cherry flavored art."

Glad that Dair had agreed with him Fai focused on helping to separate and gather the fruits, "Yeeees." He drawled out the word happily before taking his armload of 'paint' and scurrying on ahead. He knew the path well by now and twisted through the mazes of hedges and flowering bushes until they had passed the giant fountain in the center of the gardens and left the herb patches and gotten to the best part - the older walls where the gardeners tended to allow vines and other wildflowers to flourish. One wall in particular had some vines peeled away only leaving an area of stone to work with while the edges on top were slightly cracked. He had heard grandma wanted to hire someone to replace it so what was the harm in helping to decorate the old piece anyways? Grinning he dropped his fruits and waited for Dair, "What do ya think? Do we work on a giant painting of everyone or what?"

A grin on his face Dair moved to follow along after his brother with the paint that had in his hands. He was pretty excited that they were finally going to get to some painting. While he was a big fan of creating pretty art from whatever he and his brother could find but it wasn't like it was what he meant to when he got older. He couldn't really say yet what he wanted to do but it definitely wasn't art forever. "A painting of everyone? Maybe... I was thinking about doing a painting of a giant monster!" He said, a huge grin on his face as he thought about the fun that he could have creating a monster of his own from scratch on the wall. Giving a thoughtful hum as he glanced at his brother he added, "We can also do a drawing of mom though, she would like that! And... maybe we'll get in less trouble if we do that." That was what he hoped for at least.

Faisal grinned, "You callin' mom a giant monster?" He teased lightly before squishing a cherry in his hands, "Maybe we could draw mama and dad defeating a giant monster?" He gasped as the idea came to him, "They're heroes right so we can have them in an epic scene!" The hybrid looked at his brother in anticipation, "What do ya think, Dair?" His brother could then draw the monster he wanted while he tried to draw their parents! Then they could add that cool magical effect that their mother had when she cast spells and give their dad his epic sword!
