Memory and Celestyn's attention both dropped from whatever they were doing and turned to look at the new boy. Celestyn tilted her head and gurgled something incomprihesible while pointing at him. She paused for a moment, split between Noi and the newcomer before crawling over to him and sitting down right in front of him.
She reached out a hand and placed it on his shoulder, as if she understood his predicament and sympathized.

Polo, slightly taken aback by the feel of a hand suddenly upon his shoulder, and looked at the girl in front of him. His face seemed to be a confused mask, as if he wasn't sure what to do. It was then that his suave attitude took over.
"Henno!" he burbled happily, a smooth grin across his face. He scooted closer to the pretty girl, and babbled a bit in her general direction.

Celestyn's eyes brightened at his response to her touch, and she began to babble with him. She kicked her feet against the ground, grinned, and abruptly became silent. Remembering the flowers she had uprooted from the pot for Noi, she crawled over to them, went back to Polo, and proceeded to drop the pathetic, sad bunch in his lap.

A small blush appeared on Polo's already-rosy cheeks. Bre grinned in the corner, pleased at her boy's having found suitable interaction.
Polo burbled a thank you (although it came out more like "Hahnyoo!") and looked at the flowers in his lap. A small grin came to his face, and he picked the prettiest 2 or 3 of the poor bunch to share with Celestyn.
"Porvoooo" he said happily.

Celestyn tilted her head to the side, confused. Was her gift being rejected? And if so, why? She tooked the offered flowers from Polo and studied them, picking off their petals one by one. Finding nothing wrong upon her inspection, she handed them back over to Polo and said one of the two words she knew.
"Ca'e."

Now Polo was confused. Did she not like him to share? What did he do wrong?
He tried to mimic Cel instead, to divert attention from the confusing subject of the flowers.
"nnnnnnnn! nn--" he stopped, frustrated. For whatever reason, he couldn't make that sound! Tears welled up in the boy's bright blue eyes behind the coke-bottle glasses.

Noi felt forgotten at the arrival of the noisier Soul, and thankfully she was in the height of her "up" moods, else this would have resulted in some heavy duty wailing and tantrum throwing. Instead of feeling sorry for herself, she squirmed her way towards Polo and Celestyn.
Once close enough, Noi prodded the new comer with one of her chubby fingers.

Celestyn grinned at both the Souls, happy to be in company other than her guardian. She clapped her hands together and giggled childishly.
"Ca'e ca'e," she continued. Celestyn smiled consolingly at Polo before turning her head to Noi and tilting it to the side, studying her.

Polo was startled by the prodding from Noi--he had seen her, of course, but hadn't noticed that she had moved. His hand moved unsteadily towards the bright soul and poked at her gently in return.
He burbled happily, enjoying Noi's bright clothing. He turned to Celestyn, his new friend, and pointed at the bright soul, a giggle escaping his pouty mouth.

Noi felt a little better now that Polo had noticed her, and was content to listening to both Souls. She truly wasn't the talkative sort, even in the highest peaks of her mood cycles. But was he laughing at her?
She cocked her head from side to side, her pig tails bobbing from the motion.
"A?" she repeated, pointing at the flowers then at Celestyn and ended with Polo.

The giggles ceased immediately so that Polo could hear the bright girl better. Now confused and hence uncomfortable, he fell into his shield and began to mimic Noi, cocking his head as well.
Unfortunately....Polo mimicked to the extreme. He nodded his head so quickly that it threw off his delicate balance, and the well-dressed boy fell over on his side. With that, he began to cry.

What just happened?! Noi blinked in horror at Polo's crying. Was it her fault that he fell over? He had been imitating her after all. Uncertainly, she looked to Celestyn then to Polo before squirming her way to him. She rested a tentative hand on Polo's head, stroking his hair gently.

Polo rolled on the ground, trying to right himself. Thankfully, Bre (and all the others) were spared the sound of Polo's crying as his attention was focused on the task at hand.
The slightly chubby child rocked back and forth, finally leaving himself satisfied on his stomach, looking up at the other two Souls. He burbled happily from this position, pretending to be content in their company.

Noi let out a sigh when he stopped crying. She felt it was her turn to do some mimicry. She got onto her own stomach and began to burble in delight before looking to Celestyn, hoping she'd do the same.
