"Um its mocha chocolate coffee." He managed to mumble between sips.
"Eh...er...um." Sciz backed up on the stump retracting from the sudden intrusion of his personal space bubble. Though he almost fell off when Kiarna screamed about the coffee. "I made some and brought it with me, do you want a cup?"

Kiarna threw her hands up in the air. "YES~nyu! COFFEE IS GOOD~nyu!" Then she looked down, scuffling her feet, trying (and failing) to look humble and hesitant. "That is, if you don't mind~nyu."
Phew, all thoughts about the 'secret' was gone.

Jayoku giggeled watching Kiarna spout on about coffee. "It was smar tof you to bring your own coffee." she said smiling gently at Sciz. "Though i don't like it very much i do wish i had some hot chocolate with me." she looked a bit sad and then found herself watching the little silver needle again. the gold thread clung to her shirt sleeve as if hugging it for warmth. It certainly was pretty thread though only a strand she wondered about the sybolism it may contain.
She then looked to watch Snake, Bear and Dragon (nicknames i am currently using) wondering what the children were doing.
"so do you look after that child?" Jay asked Sciz pointing in general towards the children.

Io wrinkled her nose a bit at all the excitement over coffee. She couldn't stand the stuff - nor could she hot chocolate, for that matter. In any case, groggy though she may get, she preferred to start her day uncaffeinated.
She was also not quite so easily distracted, and very much the sneak when it came to secret information. Her head tilted as she mulled over Sciz's words, glancing from her scythe to the odd children in the tree.
Hmmm. Curiosity teamed up with a few theories, gnawing at her like a teething mouse. Perhaps she would inquire about this "secret" later. Preferably when the others weren't around.
For now, however, she merely smirked, giving a short chuckle as she walked over to join the others, the end of the scythe's handle dragging on the ground.
"Oi, you're talking about them there?" She nodded in the tree's direction, reaching up to adjust her glasses as she did so. "Kinda antisocial little critters, aren't they? Not that I should talk or anything, but I haven't seen a single one of 'em deign to come down and chat." Her tone was jovial, but nonetheless curious. She was geniunely interested in them, despite the less than favorable glances the dragon had been casting about.
She would probably enjoy teasing the hell out of Tasius later. Ruffling feathers was something of a specialty of hers.

"Because she doesn't trust me, and she obviously trusts you. Besides, it's her I want in my box, not yourself."
Tasius glanced down at Kunii, making a face. "This doesn't concern you." He blinked slowly, then smiled, glancing at Seamus. "Or maybe... it does." He lowered his voice so that only Seamus would hear him. "Do you think if Kunii became trapped in the box, she'd rescue the poor sap?"
Fable sighed, running a hand through her hair and making her white cat meow kindly. "Kiarna, it was a joke. Keep that hair safe, it's important." She glanced to Sciz and smiled lightly. "Welcome back. Has Kunii been any trouble for you?"

Seamus nodded. "That has distinct possibilities." He looked at Kunii. "Very distinct. I would think she'd come t' trustin' the bear more'n she'd trust me. I'm too much like you. Him, though? Aye." He looked over at Fable and the others. "Your box'll keep the new ones from comin', too?"

"No I don't mind." Sciz put the mug down beside him for a moment. Pulling a thermos from his jacket he poured some of its contents into that cup top that the thermoses come with and handed it to Kiarna. "Here ya go." Sciz capped the thermos and stuck it back into the jacket.
"Well I thought I'd be out here a while so why not bring something to drink." He laughed lightly. Sciz watched Jayoku fiddle with the needle and thread again while sipping some more coffee. "Hmm? Oh yea I watch after 'Kunii' the one who looks like a polar bear."
"Kunii will probably come over one he realizes you're all here." Sciz laughed.
Kunii poated a bit but looked alittle more miffed and annoyed then sad. "okay FINE." He slid down the tree and looked back towards Sciz and suddenly noticed all the people. People ment attention, and being a typical little kid he wanted attention. So Kunii ran off back to Sciz.
"Hey you have fuzzy dice in your hair." Kunii oogled at the dice Kiarna wore.
"Why do you have a needle in your clothes?" He snapped his attention to Jayoku for a second.
"Isn't that heavy." He points at Io's scythe.
"Well that didn't take long." Sciz rolls his eyes.
"Othering then being an attention magnet like he is right now, not really." He leaned back glad the attention wasn't on him anymore.
((i just looked out the window and its snowing :B its a little earlier then usual this year. too bad its not going to stick))

The little boy who trotted up to them was imposibly cute. She loved how his attention seemed to be scattered only focusing on one thing for a moment before moving on.
"Um...yes that is a needle." she answered him, "you can look at it but i wouldn't advise touching. it looks pretty sharp." She kneeled so she could be eye level witht he boy a sign she was at the very least comfertable with children.

Kiarna sulked at Fable. "Nyuu, this is as safe as it's going to be~nyu!" she whined, stomping her foot childlishly.
"THANKYOUSOMUCH~nyu!" Kiarna grabbed the cup, and downed the contents all at once. "Nyu! Hot~nyu!" she yelped. But a slow grin spread across her face. "Tasty~nyu! Thank you~nyu!"
Kiarna beamed at Kunii. "Isn't it so stylish~nyu?" She struck an absurd pose.

Io gave something that was half-purr, half-chuckle at the boy's antics... and Kiarna's, for that matter. She ruffled Kunii's hair playfully as she responded to his query. "Sure it's heavy, kiddo. Probably weighs more than you! I'd offer to let you try and hold it to see, but little boys shouldn't be playing with things this sharp." She tapped the tip of the scythe to emphasize her point, only succeeding in pricking herself. She jerked her hand back and stuck her finger in her mouth, casting a slight glare about that clearly stated that she MEANT to do that.
Io HERSELF shouldn't be playing with something that sharp. That, however, was entirely beside the point. Honest.
((A LITTLE earlier, Sciz? xd We got a huge snowstorm on THANKSGIVING. Usually it really kicks in late-late December and into January here!))

Kunii leans in to look at the needle and thread stuck into her sleeve. "I dun like needles, they hurt. But you should be careful not to lose it. It looks really special." He looks at her with a serious face and nods. "Yea dun lose it."
He watches Kiarna strike a pose and considers copying it, but decides to try later to annoy his guardian. "Did Sciz give you that icky hot choclate." Kunii stuck his tounge out obiously having tried the coffee before and hating it.
His attention went back to Io when his hair was messed with. Kunii pulled back out off it to fix his hair back the best he could. "Oh I know about not to play with sharp objects. But I'm strong I could hold the scythe."
"Not while I'm here you're not."
Kunii sticks his tounge out at Sciz.
((yea i live about 2 hours south of Washington DC. sorry that i live in the south and don't get snow till Jan-Feb usually D: Its considered lucky to have a white x-mas at my moms house, an hour east of where I am. xD

If somebody could speak chat-speak, then Kiarna would have sounded something like this: "-poutpout~nyu- ONG 1 LYK C0F33~nyu!11!1!11!!!" But instead she had to settle with a very sulky look, while remarking, "But I like coffee~nyu! Especially chocolate coffee~nyu! Two of my favorite things combined in one~nyu!"
Then she proceeded to bound over to Io. "CAN I PLAY WITH SHARP THINGS~nyu?" She was like a puppy wanting a walk as of right now. "I promise I won't swing it round and round in circles and decapitate everyone even though that is very tempting~nyu!

"I am nothing like you," Tasius hissed, leaping off of the branch with his box, and letting the branch sway dangerously without his weight on it. Walking over to Kunii, he wrapped his arm around his shoulders and pulled him away, his voice dangerously cunning.
"I have something in this box for you," He murmured softly, dropping it on the ground and giving it a small kick so that it rolled a small ways away. "You just have to figure out how to get inside for it."

It was one of those times that Jay wanted to make sure that Kiarna didn't hurt herself. "Hun.." she spoke as she didn't know the girls name. " i am sure that scythe is really heavy. You wouldn't want to accidentally hurt someone with it or yourself for that matter." she continued placing a hand on the girls shoulder.
Her attention was then drawn to Io and she looked at the scythe it was a might and impressive weapon or work tool as some would call it. SHe passed a smile to the girl before her gaze was drawn to Tasius who had just recently arrived on the scene and pulled Kunii away from them.
She couldn't help but watch them for a breif period wondering what he spoke of as he then dropped a box to the ground and nudged it with his foot towards the bear boy. It wasn't really any of her busisness so she tried to focus her attention back to Sciz and the others. Her hand slipped off of Kiarna's shoulder and she held them clasped together in front of herself.
"I should probably introduce myself, my name is Jayoku. You can call me Jay for short if you like." she offered her hand to Sciz

Io narrowed her eyes at Kiarna. Io may be pretty oblivious at times, but she wasn't so oblivious as to not know a Very Bad Idea when she heard one.
"Nope, nuh-uh, sorry," she told her. "It's MY scythe. Mineminemine." She pet it affectionately, a devilish smile playing at her lips. "Anyone but me plays with it, and it's all fun and games until someone trips and heads start rolling."
Ah yes. Io, queen of mixed metaphors.
Unfortunately, Kiarna had managed to wrest her attention away from Kunii. She didn't notice the dragon boy whispering to him like that suspicious man on the street with a trenchcoat full of watches.
