If the little rabbit wanted someone to catch him, Blanche wasn't doing too badly a job. Admitting she wasn't as fast as Oleo, but her keen little paws fled along those floors all the same. She skidded around every corner, paws quickly pulling her white body in a completely different direction. Of course this couldn't happen without the help of her wings, which she pulled out flat for a little bit of air resistance at every turn.
If he didn't jump she could do this. Not realizing the other gryphon was actually slowing down, Blanche jauntily met up with Oleo. Her paws skimmed across the floor, black beak preening out towards the fellow white body. A few more steps and she had him, leaning forward to gently tap the male Aerandir on the back.
"It's nice to see her getting along with other gryphon's, as I'm afraid we've both been a bit of a hermit shell," Emi spoke quietly. It seemed smiling was becoming contagious, and it was no different for the keppit furry. The tip of one furry ear twitched not seeming to be able to stay still on this midday meeting, on second thought, if Air had noticed neither of the large ears seeming to stay still for very long no matter the time.
"Found her?" Metallic blue eyes watched Keen's every move for a moment - those large black wings, pitch black beak and creamy white feathers which held her dark red pupils.
"Maybe she's got some part of Kite in her? She's got to be a predator by the shape of those claws, I'm afraid I'll never be a bird expert, but that's one guess," The older woman suggested, really - she hadn't studied birds much, bar taken a few clear cut photographs of them back in Gaia.
Once tapped, Blanche put on a bout of speed. It wasn't going to be fast enough, as the gryphon was starting to heat up: after all, a thick layer of white fur (even on a cooler day) meant she couldn't heat up too much. She tried though, zipping around the edge of the cardboard box as not to get caught.

'Yes, now it is my turn' tought Oleo as he was tagged. Trying to slow down to turn around towards Blanche he almost crashed against the wall. If he hadn't extended his wings to slow down he could have.
"Ah, well, it's not like we go out too often" she said seeing the sudden closeness of Oleo to the wall. "Ah, yes, well, actually Oleo found her, and when I found Oleo I found her", she was trying to get around the fact that Oleo had gone lost for almost three days straight. "A kite eh? I'll go look later for some bird books at the lodge, I'm very curious as to what she is too."
'Behind the box, that woon't work' chirped Oleo as he jumped on top of the box. To his surprise the top had been left open by Keen not long ago, so instead of staying on top, he dropped in with the rest of his toys. A loud "TUD" was heard as he fell with the balls, newspaper and a keychain.

For once, Blanche hadn't even noticed Oleo almost crashing into the wall. Still assuming she was being followed, the white gryphon put on the best burst of speed she could to round the corner: ending up behind the cardboard box. Her white chest heaved, spreading her wings out to thermoregulate her small body.
Actually, she looked quite funny: large wings spread wide at either side of her, while her golden yellow eyes were fixed upon the box above. Her ears twitched as he chirped, readying her paws to run again if needs be. Yet, there wasn't any need.
Thump.
Twitching her wings, Blanche pushed her front paws against the front of the box. Where had he gone? Stretching her white paws out, she shuffled up against the box, standing up on the tips of her back paws. Struggling to see over the lip, she slipped up onto the very edge of her furry paws, peering inside the box down at Keen and Oleo. What exactly was he doing down there?
"Those wings remind me of a kite, but don't take my complete word for it," What else could she be? Taking another sip from her glass, Emi's ears tensed up as Oleo almost came face-to-face with the rather hard wall. He wasn't going to bound into it, was he?
Her ears almost visibly exhaled a long breath of relief (in their own way) as he bounded off in the other direction: a happy bunny once more.
"It's strange how even though we're on an Island, I don't see very many people. Especially with the proximity we're all in," Commenting on the turtle shell world she lived in, Emi returned to watching all three of the gryphons with the cardboard box.
Clicking in the back of her throat, Blanche clacked her beak together in a questioning click. Strutting her white tail out behind her, Blanche preened her head out towards the two in the box.

'It was open!' Oleo chirped back at blanche, he was lying flat on his back and was trying to get the bothersome newspaper sheet of himself.
Keen, still lying on the plush by the kitchen floor. Clicked her beak, obviously making fun of Oleo.
After fighting of the newspaper he stood on his backpaws, resting the front ones at the edge of the box, until his face was besides Blanche's. He nipped lightly once more on one of Blanche's ear, a sign of friendship and peace in his bunny-like language. 'I'm tired' he said going back into the box to shake himself off the hit. He then jumped out and laid on the corner yawning. It had been a busy day for him.
"I know, very odd. Maybe we should make a party or something, just so we all get out at the same time" she said laughting, half jocking. "It seems Oleo's finally tired, at least I know he'll sleep all night today" she smiled. It was good for him to be around other gryphs.

"A party might be good, or if not, we could always organize an event? We'll have to get together again to work out the finer details, if you like?" Finishing off the last of her lemonade, Emi slid onto her paws. Oleo was looking tired, and she didn't want to outstay her welcome. Making her way to the washing up bowel, she slid the glass back down into the plastic basin: it was Emi's way; she couldn't just leave something like that standing out and not actually clear it up afterwards.
Open? Tilting her head to one side, Blanche c**k-eyeingly closed her right eye tightly as he nipped upon her ear. Yet, it didn't hurt once again. Picking up one paw after the other, Blanche followed him to the corner; watching his beak open just to clack back against the bottom in a bird-like yawn. For now, she ignored Keen.
Leaning down, she gently nuzzled her softer rounded cheek to his ears. It was only brief, the gryphon crooning softly as he settled. Turning on her paws, she wearily padded her way back to Emi: chest still heaving in an out in what could have been classified as a pant, wings outspread just to cool down as much as possible.
"We best be off, I've got a dog waiting at home for me," Emi commented, bending down to pluck the tired gryphon from the floor. Cradling Blanche under one arm, Emi gently tucked one furry finger around to run it from Blanche's nape of her neck and along her spine. The gryphon rippled in her grasp, flopping her paws either side of Emi's arm. She couldn't help it: games of tag did tire her out.
"Thank you so much for the drink," Large tail flicking around behind her, out of the corner of her eye she spotted the orange blanket. Leaning over, she tucked the neatly folded material next to Blanche, grinning up towards Air. It had been nice talking to someone, even if it had only been for a few hours.

"So you do like the idea? yes, I think we should make something" air nodded in a rather childish way. "Oh just leave it like t.." Air was unnable to finish, since Emi had already gone to the bowel.
He would have tough Blanche was gonna stay to sleep with them, and was rather dissappointed when she walked away after the nuzzle.
Keen was now finding a rather comfortable position over the bear so as to take a nap.
Emi took he little gryphin after she walked up to her, placing Blanche rather nicely in her arm. "You're very welcome! It was very nice having a visit. Feel free to come again any time you wish!". Air petted Blanche's head and said "and make sure you come again too". Since Emi had Blanche in one arm and the blanket in the other Air accompanied them to the door. "Let me help you!" she said opening it for her. "Remember we still gotta sort the details for that event!" she smiled.
