"Oh, I don't know. She's just a toddler. Just like any, I guess." Waikiki KiKi didn't know much about them anyway. So, if she was odd KiKi wouldn't have noticed.
Hula Bob chuckled. "So, Texas Pete what do you like to do? I like to surf, hula, limbo and take care of my bar." He nodded and pointed down the beach to his bar and home.

"Criofan was a toddler a little while ago. Now he's a kid." He tapped his chin. He had never known his sisters as toddlers, though. That was a good thing to him. The less he knew of those two nuisances, the better it was for him...
What did he like to do? He turned to Hula Bob with a pensive expression as he thought carefully about what he enjoyed. "Well, I enjoy being outdoors." That was a pretty basic answer. What else could he say? "I like exploring new things, relaxing, and being brave. 'cause I'm very, very brave." He liked to think himself brave, anyway. Typically, he did seem to be a very confident child.

Waikiki KiKi chuckled. "Yeah? I like being outdoors too, but I don't like mud. It's yucky and not fun. Surfing is though, you shoudl try it sometime."
"Being brave? That's a nice thing. It's always good to protect others..." Hula Bob trailed off. He wasn't brave. He knew that if he was he'd be able to leave the beach.

"Surfing?" Texas tilted his head. What was surfing? It must have had something to do with the outdoors and probably with the beach they were at, but that was all he could decipher. Did it have to do with being brave? Texas liked being brave.
"Uh-huh, it's good to be brave," he quickly affirmed for Hula Bob. "I saved my bestest friend once!" It was hard to tell if he was exaggerating or telling the truth from the sound of his voice, though Texas was certain that he had saved him from certain doom. Then, he asked, "Is surfing a brave thing to do?"

"I guess surfing is brave if you happen to be scared of water or something." Hula Bob smiled. It wasn't really, but hey might as well make it look better. "Surfing it riding the water waves and currents on a piece of wood."
Waikiki KiKi giggled. "It's really fun. You should get lessons sometime. Grand Hula Daddy is great at it!"

The little boy nodded in intrigue when Hula Bob referred to surfing as brave. If it was brave, Texas needed to learn how to surf. After all, he needed to be as brave as he could be so he was better than his older sisters.
"Yeah! I should learn to surf!" Kiki had a great idea! He should learn to surf some day, so he could be better. Of course, Texas would like to try it out himself first; as unwise as that seemed, it was brave!

Hula Bob smiled and nodded. "Well, whever you want to learn I teach down the beach near my bar. It's awesome." Hula Bob looked out to the water. He really needed to surf again too.
"I learned and it was fun. Then it got all stormy and then it rained. My mom and dad made me and my twin go in. It was a bummer really." Waikiki KiKi explained.

"Okay! I'll come down sometime!" Yeah, he would go learn to surf so he could be awesome! It would make his older sisters mad, and that was all Texas ever wanted, it seemed. His sisters also seemed to be the only two people he actually couldn't find it in himself to like no matter what they did.
Though, what he despised more than them was that icky rain. He had met Cinthy through the rain, but that was the only good it did. "Eww, rain! I don't like rain. It was annoying when I had to stay inside for so long. There was nothing to do!" He pouted.

"Yeah, and I had to use the bath tube to try my power." Waikik KiKi added to Texas's reasons for the rain being unfun. "Though, I guess that worked pretty well." She smiled.
"Rain may not be fun for us, but it is needed. All plants and life need water. So, it's a needed annoyance." Hula Bob explained to the young ones.

Texas turned his attention to Hula Bob. All plants and life needed water? Well, that made sense. Some seemed to need it more than others, like his sister Aysu. "Aysu needs a lot of water. She's a naiad." He had already said that earlier, but it seemed necessary for him to repeat for some reason. Then, he turned his attention to the water.
"Did rain help the lake come?" Rain was water, right? So maybe all the rain helped the lake develop over time.

"Yes, she would. Naiads need more then the rest of us." Hula Bob smiled. "Oh, well maybe it did in the beginning. I wouldn't know. I am old, but I'm totally not that old."
Waikiki KiKi giggled. She knew he was old as he was 'Great' that was even older then her grandma Luau LuLu.

Texas couldn't help his own childish giggles. "If you're not quite that old, how old are you?" Kiki referred to him as a Great Hula Granddaddy, so Texas could only assume that Hula Bob was quite old already. However, Texas couldn't make any guesses to how old he was only because Texas didn't know how old being a Great Hula Granddaddy made someone.

Hula Bob shook his head. "I'm old enough let's just say." He was now over 2 years old, but what was that really? He also had great grand kids. Some older them him didn't have those...then again some older then him had ever more relations.
"I think you are just right, Great Hula Grandaddy!" She said as she jumped into his lap. She wanted him to feel better and not old.

Texas Pete snickered. "Okay, that works. You make yourself sound older when you say that, though." Unfortunately, kids tended to be terribly blunt. At least it let Hula Bob know that Texas saw him as very old, but he didn't seem to be very phased by it. He had to be pretty cool to be a surfer, right? Surfers were brave if surfing was a brave activity, and brave people were cool!
"I don't have any Great Hula Granddaddies. I'm first in line!" He pointed to himself proudly, even if his sentence didn't make a whole lot of sense to someone who didn't know the context.

Hula Bob just shook his head. "Trust me age is all in the mind. However age you feel is how old you are. And I'm totally not old." He winked. Hula Bob didn't mind it much to a child he was old, but to Bob he was far from it. There were paes even older then him after all.
"You cant' be a Great Hula Grandaddy, he is the only one. He is mine, Keanu and June's." She hugged her great grandpa around the middle with a smile,
