Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yes! We should. You know of course what you need to do first though right? Hand stands!" He told Fleur, grinning some. The skunks did hand stands and sprayed from that position, it might be important. Maybe to keep the scent from getting on them at all? So he would teach him hands stands for that! It was a fun thing to do and would distract the boy a bit at the same time. The first thing to get him to concentrate on a new thing instead of just worry about the scent, if he worried to much the poor boy would get an ulcer. He needed to have some fun!

Orpheus smiled, seeming quite glad to have caught the boy off guard, "Its something that your breed are quite good at actually." He said, watching his first attempt then nodded, "Not bad for a first try, biggest thing you have to remember is to to have your hands spaced so they are as far apart as your shoulders are, that way you have a good base for balance."

He knelt down and put his hands on the ground then pushed himself up on his hands to show the boy how it worked, hands stands were something he could do. After all if you asked Raven he was a 'glorified gym teacher' so the physical he was good at, "Ta-dah! And when you get good at it you will be able to walk on them." He took a few steps forward with his hands.

"Looking pretty good." Orpheus said, lowering down to his feet for a moment as the blood was rushing to his head and he felt like he was gonna fall over if he didn't sit upright for a moment, he grinned a bit, "Once your feeling ready try to take some steps." It was nessassary but walking around on your hands was a lot of fun, that was the point of the current exercise.

"Good job, your tail seems to be pretty helpful with balance. Lucky, wish I had me a tail some days... and wings on other days." He was half joking, though such things could come in handy. Not that he were about to ask any of the creepy labtechs for them mind you...

Orpheus pushed back up onto his hands to walk around a bit more, these classes were far to much fun. Always were until he had to teach something to fly.

Orpheus laughed, "All tail? Sounds like my younger son, Ter is a cobra child and doesn't have any legs at all." He said, "And Ligeia has a feathery tail that he uses in his flying."

Orpheus noticed something something as they talked and walked about on his hands, the smell. Well lack there of at least. It would seem he'd gotten the boy to 'control' the smell for at least the moment. To bad he had no idea how... He wouldn't say anything though since he didn't want to started the kid with the information. Instead the talking and walking was funner.

"Del? Ah! Yes, I had her in one of my classes before. How is she doing?" He asked of Fleur, it was a shame he didn't see his students often enough aside from the ones that made friends with his sons. He missed them after having the classes and getting to know them.

"Vorel? Scary?" He tried to piece that one together, "He's not to bad, its Baroness that is a bit scary only cause she is so spoiled." He shook his head, never had he seen such a bratty dragon and all because his son insisted upon making her that way...

"Knitting huh? Ligeia sews, he learned from Earako and from a lot of books she showed him." Well that made him feel better, to know that his boy wasn't the only one that had picked up hobbies like that. He was a little worried for Ligeia but this was a good sign right?

"Maybe Geia has a book that would help?" Unless Fleur already had all the books he could use on the subject.
