Boian looked over at his friend and laughed, "Oh my would you really have eaten that?" he asked reaching over to take a hold of one of the squids. It was so slimy and awesome. He was glad that it was not moving before he did not know if he could feed one live thing to another.
Watching the sharks swim away he saw a ray coming over and he lowered his hand down with the squid dangled in the water. He had a hard time staying still as the ray swam over and sucked up the squid. He giggled and smiled up at his friend, "So hungry! You should feed a ray it almost sucks up your fingers!"

Ciúin jerked his head to look at Boian. The tone caused him to give a knee-jerk reaction of saying, "No." He calmed shortly after though, and watched as the ray sucked up the squid. He tilted his head to the side.
"I would like to try," he stated as he snagged another squid and held it out for a passing ray. The ray ignored it, however, and swam passed. A few sharks started to close in, but Ciúin quickly jerked his hand out of the water, scaring them off. When a ray came close again, he gently lowered his hand into the water. This ray had no qualms about taking the cephalopod from him. In an instant, the squid had disappeared into its mouth. "It was like a vacuum!"

Boian's ears flicked at Ciúin's quick response but he smiled at this larger friend. There was no need to get upset. "You should try it is cool!"
He leaned over the edge of the pool to look in and watch. "Aww! That one must be full." When he saw the next ray swim up he had to lean against his hands to keep from clapping but as soon as his friend turned back he giggled and clapped his hands, "Isn't it cool! Just fhoop and the squid is gone!" He looked back into the tank and wondered what they should try to feed next his tail wagged behind him as he glanced at the gluttony spawn, "Hey would you like to play fish? I can hold out the last squid for you, since you looked like you wanted to try the last one and you can pretend to be a fish and swim by and eat it up?"
Keal's eyes widened at Boian's suggestion. Did he not hear Moira say that the other spawn should not eat the squid. Man for a greed spawn he was rather giving. Though the boy could be very selfish in his own way and when it came to the ladies.

"Oh, no, no ,no, no, Boian," Moira quickly interjected before Ciúin had a chance to react. "That food's for the fish, not for spawn or people, Boian." She was ready to go and grab the last squid from either of the boys if she needed to, to prevent them from trying to eat it. But she hoped that what she'd said would be enough.
Ciúin looked from Boian, to his mother. What was going on here?

Boian looked at the squid in his hand and then at the woman who denied him from giving it to his friend. His lips fell into a pout but he gave a nod and turned back to Ciúin, "Here...you can feed the last one then we can go inside." He was not one to argue with a woman so he flashed a big smile at the larger child.

Ciúin took the last squid and dipped it in the water. A couple sharks swam by and snagged it, dragging it off and tearing it into pieces.
Ready to go inside, the larger spawn looked to his friend and smiled back, flashing his pointed teeth. "Ready?" He plodded along, entering the chilly building that was the aquarium. A shudder ran through him at the drastic difference in temperature.
As he stepped further inside, looking around and not paying attention to the floor. He felt a slight jerk that cause him to stumble a bit. He had wandered onto a moving sidewalk and was being drawn away from the rest of the group, into the underside viewing area of the aquarium. A worried look crossed Ciúin's face as he tried to walk against the current of the walkway. His slow pace, however, just caused him to stay in one place. "What is going on?"

Boian giggled as the sharks swam off, then he turned and followed his friend inside the building. He laughed and his tail flicked at the temperature difference but other than that it was nice being cooler. He could not believe everything that was on the walls and they were not even down any of the halls.
He had been keeping up with Ciúin but then suddenly his tall friend was not at his side. He turned in time to see the gluttony spawn moving in place. "Why are you moving funny?" He didn't understand about the moving floor until he almost stepped on it. Night next to the moving walkway was a sign that said "Watch your step." He then looked down and his eyes went wide. "Oh wow the floor is moving on its own! Father look!"
Keal laughed softly and shrugs, "Looks like we know where we are going first." He smiled, "Don't worry it is a moving walk way. You step on it and stand still and it will move you down a hall." he walked over to it, "We can go on it now if you want or I can help you off." He said holding out a hand for the tall spawn.

Moira smiled and signed to Ciúin that the floor was moving and that it was supposed to do that. "Just stay there, I'll be there in just a minute." She stepped around a few people and made her way to Ciúin, who immediately grabbed her hand. He definitely didn't like this moving walkway.
"I do not like-" he was cut off by as a dolphin swam over his head. He instantly forgot about his fear and ran over to the moving railing, peering over as the dolphin sped away. "What kind of fish is that?" He looked at Moira, pointing in the direction it had swam off in.
"That's actually a mammal. It's called a dolphin." she signed.
"Dolphin, not a fish," he repeated, looking back at the tank overhead.

Boian hurried himself onto the moving walkway and over next to his friend. And saw the strange grey tail disappear and listened about the dolphin. "So there is more than fish here? And things that are not fish can live in the water?" He was shocked and he giggled point up, "Look at the sigh of that ray!" he pointed up as one sway over them. "Oh wow this is so cool!"
Then Boian could see sharks swimming over them. He had not seen the glass separating the two tanks. "Sharks are meet eaters....wont they eat the dolphins?" He looked worried.
Keal smiled, "Don't worry Boian the dolphins are safe. There was some clear glass we just passed under. It is strong enough to keep both animals safe from each other but then we can see things a bit more like the wild. So you don't have to worry about them." he smiled and ruffled his son's hair.

"That is such a big ray!" Ciúin exclaimed as Boian pointed.
When the alarmed tone shown in Boian's voice, Ciúin looked to his mother, who signed everything for him, explaining the separate tanks. "Mom! We need to separate Bleez with glass! That way she will not fight with us!" His tail waggled at his own ingenious idea. Moira, struck by the idea could keep herself from laughing. She was laughing so hard that she couldn't sign that it wouldn't work like that. Ciúin tilted his head at her reaction.
After a few moments of her fit, she managed to calm herself enough to tell Ciúin that although it was a good idea, it sadly wouldn't work. Covering her mouth with a hand to stifle another laugh, she addressed Keal, "Kids' minds are so adorable."

Boian smiled at his friend and then at Moria as she started to laugh. He did not know Bleez or who she was but he did not like thinking of his friend fighting. Though he was more than sure that Ciúin could handle himself. He could just see how strong the older kid was. He could only wonder what this Bleez would be like. He wondered if he would ever get to meet her and wondered if he should ask for more information.
Keal could not help but laugh, "Yes kids will always be kids. They are very creative creatures." he said softly and smirked, "I had five brothers. I know how hard it is. Your the youngest right Ciúin? I have never had a sister though."

"I 'ave five siblings, too," Moira chuckled at Keal's comment. "What're the odds?"
Ciúin looked at Keal, then at Moira for her to sign the question. "Yes, I am the youngest. It is just me, my mom, and Bleez. But Bleez is not home often."

Boian tilted his head watching the adults. He was a bit annoyed that their conversation, thought kinda interesting was distracting from the animals swimming around them. His tail flicked irritatedly.
Keal gave a nod, "Such a small world huh? Well I guess I can say I am a brother short though, only four of us are still alive." he then looked down at the gluttony spawn, "Well it can be hard to be the youngest I am sure. I was one of the three oldest. I was a third of a set of triplets. So I take it she is lots older?"

Ciúin ignored or didn't hear the adults. He was busy watching the fish swim around. He didn't even acknowledge Keal when the man spoke directly to him.
"Oh, I'm so sorry about your brothers!" Moira gasp. "It's never easy losing family member!"
The Gluttony boy happened to follow a fish to a point where he saw that the edge of the moving sidewalk was coming up. "Mother!" He called out and pointed. It was still several feet off, but he wanted everyone to be alert.

Keal shrugs "Well it happens when one is in wars. We all were personally involved with a war of clan." He smiled softly "It was hard at first but it was one of the things that made us fight harder."
Hearing the call of the gluttony spawn he looked over and smiled, "Well looks like our ride is over."
Boian turned to look over at the end and frowned, "Aww its over already? That sucks! Whats next?" He smiled and jumped off when the end came and smiled brightly at the other spawn, "Come on lets go to that dark hall!" He said pointing to a darker hall that read something about the deeper waters and bio luminance sea creatures.
