Charna sighed, looking upward toward the sky as she heard Nunzio and Helen fly by, discussing his daughter, "I never said all normals were great. But you ignore it, be the bigger Kitsu and do not use your anger of them against others that may want your friendship. You will make more enemies if you out and out attack every normal you meet, and it does you no good to live your life wondering who might take revenge on you."
She got up and scratched behind her horn, her anger over his ignorant rantings gone for now and she turned to head back to the group that Lucia and gently manuevered away, "Hale'oki doesn't have to be your only family..." she said, as if offering her own to his.
She then trotted away towards the group, gently scolding Mami for trying to lay on her belly.

"It must have taken you a long time to turn your back on the Nightmare's bloodbound hatred for those unlike ourselves." He frowned. "Though maybe your statement will prove right one day. I have never met a Normal Kitsusagi that did not seek to ridicule me." He raised his ears at her last statement. Hale'oki didn't have to be his only family? It didn't sound very safe to accept others like that just yet.
In time though, maybe.
Zephyrizon flicked an ear. He turned his head towards Hale, and curiously noted her stance - she looked... unhappy? He knew how to fix that, at least. He moved over to her, making a loud hatchling-like chirp, bumping her hard in the side with his snout.
"I still smell that scent on you..." He began to comment, grinning. "What is it, anyway?"
Hale made an abrupt grunt, shaking her head. "It's actually nothing but your imagination."
"Damn," He mused. "My imagination must be really good then." He watched Charna move over to the Kitsusagi that looked like it had eaten some Kits. At least in his aura senses anyway. He moved over to Mami cautiously, tilting his head, one gold-banded ear lopping onto it's side.
"Uh..." He began, not really knowing how he should speak to somebody unlike his kind. "Are you unwell, there? The food in your stomach still seems to be still alive."

Mami blinked at that and then softly giggled, shaking her head and rubbing at her belly, "Oh, it's not food in my stomach, I'm carrying eggs, I'm pregnant! I feel three moving about, I can't wait to lay them!" she said kindly. But soon her brother and the others were fussing over her to get back inside so she could lay on a pillow or something soft and she fussed right back at them that she was just fine and dandy.

"Eggs, huh?" Zephyrizon licked his lips. He often liked to sniff around other Normal Kitsusagi in the Mountain and threaten to eat their eggs, but he had never actually honestly tried. He also didn't know if he actually wanted to. It was fun to rile them up, though.
He lowered his head, moving his bony maw closer to Mami's swollen belly. "They are interesting colours," He grinned. "Going to eat the eggs over easy, or hardboiled?" He made a soft amused huckering hiss and flicked his tongue out of his mouth.
"Zephyrizon!!" Hale roared at him, tails swishing.
"Oh relax, mother, I wasn't..." He sighed and shook his head. "Relax, it's just a joke."

But Mami only laughed at that, both paws on her belly, "Oh I don't know, I like my eggs scrambled, and with these three, they move about enough to be scrambled!" she said, joking along with him.
Pika raised his paw to get attention on him, a smile on his face, "Oh, oh, can I have them fried with cheese!" he said in a joking manner. "Oh yea, then we can sprinkle salt and pepper on them, then they'll be really tasty!" Balen said, nudging at Pika, both males laughing.

Zephyr continued his loud huckering snicker. A Kitsusagi outside of his own species that could take a joke and not see it as a threat? This was a good thing.
"I hear the best way to eat em' is raw," He smirked. "So you can buff up and have big muscles."
He rose to his feet, moving further into their territory, his curiousity piqued. He looked around for that winged one he had 'seen' earlier. He had only heard stories that Angelics were judgemental and critical of his kind, but he wanted to know for sure.
Meanwhile, Hale kept a mindful 'watch' of Zephyr for the time being, ears raised, wondering what he would do. She still didn't trust him completely just now. She flicked her tongue out of her mouth, wondering where Adjo had gone. When it was safe and quiet, she would move back over to him.

This caused the others to laugh and they all started joking around about how to eat eggs. Adjo himself wasn't among the group, instead he was off at a small distance, laid out on his side and Lucia laying half her body on his front half. She was currently grooming at his ears and horns, both purring.
They had been doing this since Lucia was a baby and Adjo had to look after her from time to time. She would crawl her way on top of him and groom at his ears and horns and he would just lay there and take it, enjoying the attention.
The Angelic raised her head when she heard the male Nitemare approach, but she just gave a friendly smile and went back to groom, Adjo letting out a loud, heavy purr.

Zephyr drew his breath in with a loud noise, sucking air in onto his tongue via his nostrils. It was about the only effective way he had of using his nostrils to smell, at least without flicking his tongue out of his mouth.
He was mostly silent as he padded towards the winged one who was preening... that other Nightmare that had been with the angry one. He sat down nearby her and made a soft squeaking noise, then moved his head out towards her nearest wing, attempting to n** at some her wing feathers.
He normally chewed at things when he was curious, ever since he was a hatchling. It did not occur to him that it might hurt, or annoy the other Kitsu.

Lucia's winged flicked a little bit, but she did not move it, nor did she yelp or anything of the sort. She just continued in her groom of Adjo, not minding of the other one wanted to check her out. Charna meanwhile finally got Mami to get up and escorted her inside, telling Hanzi, Pika and Balen to not cause trouble or they would be dumped in the lake, as well as her son.

"Eeep!" Zephyrizon let go of the wing feathers and jerked back in surprise as the wing moved. He stood back, tilting his head slightly, before cautiously moving his head in again. He lightly poked at the wing with his maw, and then finally reached up to pat it, curious.
"What fun," He said finally. "I wish I had wings. I would think it'd be fun to fly. I can only jump high, but the wind blowing over my face is still a rush." He nudged the wing with his paw again, lightly batting at it, his guard down completely now, behaving much like a curious hatchling who had found a new toy.
"But you're... you're an Angelic, right? Why aren't you condemning me, or telling about how I'm damned?"
Meanwhile, Hale listened to the noises of the other Kitsusagi nearby. She grinned as she heard them escort the pregnant one inside. It was for the best. She made a mental note to remember the threat of throwing somebody in the lake - it was very funny, and certainly an effective way of cooling somebody off.

Lucia blinked at that and then smiled gently, "Now why would I do as something as foolish as that? I have more things to worry about then condemning someone or damning them. Besides, it's not my place, the only real power I have is what I got from my daddy, the power to calm the mind." she said in reassurance, laying her head down on top of Adjos, nuzzling him lovingly.
"It's true, her, Uncle Nunzio and Faye all have the power to calm just about anybody down. It's really great when everyone seems to lose their tempers." he said in a rumbly purr, a small on his maw.

"Ah, I see," Zeph nodded. "That can be a valuable power to have. I don't know who I inherited my power from, I never knew my parents. They abandoned me before I hatched. Anyway, my power's fairly simple. I see in a world of black and neon." He stepped back until he was a safe distance. "I can also do this."
He opened his maw as wide as it would go, a small light ball forming at a pinpoint in the air in the space of his open jaws, growing in size by the moment. It crackled and sparked as it grew larger, and then he fired it into the air, practically being knocked onto his back in the process.
The ball shot into the sky and promptly exploded, sending showers of sparks everywhere, which quickly disintergrated.
"Being able to sense aura, and a projectile explosive weapon..." He mumbled, quite exhausted now. "I dont know what use they are exactly, but this is what the gods have done..."

Lucia watched wide eyes and she gasped, sitting up, "Tha was amazing!!! I have never met a Kitsu that has an offensive power like that! Oh Auntie Helen would love to meet you and probably train with you!" she said with a smile, praising Zeph on his display.

"T-train...?" If Zephy had eyes right now, he would be blinking dumbly. "But... why would you willingly teach me how to do things, I mean.. you know I'm supposed to be evil, right? My kind being evil and cursed and all. So er, why would you aid me in the first place? It doesn't make sense..."

Lucia giggled lightly, holding a paw to her muzzle, "Oh your not evil, or Auntie Charna would have threw you out by your ear! I don't sense any evil from you, and I don't believe all Nitemares are evil, though I do wish I had the power to lift this curse you all have, but....I'm not that powerful....I doubt I ever will be..." she said a bit sadly, nuzzling Adjo when he nuzzled her to reassure her.
