From Prompt One
Whoa. Some weird looking person just approached you about becoming a parent... to a piece of paper. What do you say when they come back for an answer? How did they find out about you to begin with?
-+-+-
Alarai growled as someone knocked on the door.
"I’ll get it." Papina called out from her room. She managed to get all the way to the living room before Alarai cut in front of her, scowling. Papina rolled her eyes, but headed back to her room without a complaint. She was used to her mom’s paranoia/fear of the Templars coming to their house. She didn’t think it likely, but it was best if she just humored her mother. Alarai grumbled as she headed for the door and opened it a crack, wishing yet again that she could both find a peephole and figure out how to install it. "Yes?" she gruffly asked, not instantly recognizing the person outside her door since they were too short to be Mr. Mysterious. A soft, familiar voice asked, "May I come in, Alarai?" Alarai's eyes got wide, but she opened the door wider to admit Nara into the house before she firmly shut the door once the scroll relic was safely inside. Nara pulled the hood of her cloak back before looking at Alarai, who winced when she saw how gaunt the scroll relic was. Nara sighed before pulling out a scroll case-shaped bundle to hold in both hands. "I know you have been having your hands full with Papina, but you've been doing such a wonderful job..." Alarai's eyes were drawn to the bundle as Nara carefully pulled away some of the wrapping, revealing a scroll case. Another scroll child? Alarai wondered before she looked up to gaze into Nara's eyes. Nara closed her eyes briefly, before sighing and opening them again. "Please, Alarai..." She held the scroll out. Alarai sputtered, "Ah... Of course..." before she held her hands out. Nara dropped the case into Alarai's hands, tucking the protective fabric into one of the cloak's pockets. She pulled the hood back up and ghosted towards the door. Alarai gripped the case's strap tightly in one hand as she dashed forward to open the door for Nara. Nara gave Alarai a nod and walked through the door, leaving Alarai with a scroll whose image she didn't know, and several questions, such as Why me?

Takes Place Immediately After Unsealing: Nara and Luna

Papina stared at the door as it clicked shut behind Nara's fleeing form. Luna heaved a sad sigh before she removed her thumb long enough to say, "Almost-Mommy wan way..." Papina turned to look at Luna as Alarai paused in place before they both blinked at her. That would explain why Nara left in a hurry, Alarai mused. After all, she always seemed anxious when she asked if the new guardian wanted to keep the child or not once they were unsealed... Papina walked over to Luna and knelt down to look at the toddler eye to eye. "If Nara is Almost-Mommy, who am I?" Luna looked blankly at Papina for a moment before her eyes lit up. "Sister!" Alarai chuckled before she started to move again towards the kitchen, hoping she still had some formula for Luna. Papina hadn't needed nearly as much as she had thought, since she had been unsealed at an older age then Luna had. Papina raised an eyebrow at Luna's excited response as she followed her mother and new sibling into the kitchen. Alarai passed Luna over to Papina, freeing both arms to she could rummage around in first the fridge, then the cabinets.

Luna blinked at Papina as Papina blinked at Luna, the two both taking in the sight of the other. Papina had on a red dress of sorts, with a gold hem on the bottom. She had beads in her hair, gloves on her hands, and something odd on top of her head. Luna started to fuss, trying to pull herself higher so she could look at the strange stuff better. Were those leaves? Papina tilted her head down as she hefted the child up higher. Finally. Luna reached out and grabbed hold of the stuff on Papina's head before she dragged them towards herself and stuck them in her mouth, trying to figure out what they were. Yup they were leaves. Now were they eatable? She bit down. Papina let out a yell of shock, pain, and a tinge of anger, trying to pull Luna away from her. Luna spat the abused leaves out and made a face. Ick. Nothing worth trying to eat. She still didn’t know why there were leaves on Papina's head, tho...

Meanwhile, Alarai hurried to find some formula, hoping that something to eat would keep Luna from tasting everything. She finally found some formula in one of the upper cabinets and brought it down, taking a glance at the back to try and remember how to make it. She zipped around the kitchen, getting everything together. She finally popped the lid onto the bottle and about shoved it into Luna's mouth. Luna promptly started to drink the formula, feeling starved. She finished off the last few drops and yawned, dropping off into a deep slumber, leaving the two to stare at her in amazement. Alarai could only think that she was glad Papina had been unsealed at an older age - toddlers were exhausting. Papina tenderly touched the leaves on top of her head, whimpering as realization dawned on her face; Alarai figured that Papina just figured out that she'd have to live with Luna.

..:: Alarai's Journal Entry: #001 ::..

Good grief! It started out as a normal day when Papina answered a knock on the door. I don't think either of us was expecting it to be Nara! I hadn't even thought that she was well enough to move around then. Apparently, Nara had come to give me the care of another scroll child - a moon scroll this time. Well, I had been having my hands full with Papina recently becoming a teen and all... but when Nara asked me like that... Well, I couldn't help but say yes and take the scroll.

So now I have another kid, a small silver-tinted-in-moonlight kid with a puppy-eyed look and a blanket that I think she sucks on. I really need to do laundry more often. I'm still not quite certain why I've been chosen to care for Luna, but here I am, caring for Luna.

Actually, I'm letting Papina do a lot of caring for her. I don't want that kid to be getting any ideas of having kids of her own any time soon, and the way she's being talking about this one boy she's been meeting lately... ((Alarai growls after writing that part.))

So, anyways, I now have two scroll children, but I think I might do better with Luna. After all, I have had Papina to practice on...

Hmmm... I wonder if I should get Luna a plain journal or one with a moon on the cover...
