Welcome to Gaia! ::

The twins slept soundly, any form of time slipped by them. Both Eriko and Amira had interesting dreams, but neither girl moved as they eventually steeped in to a deep sleep. To look at them one would never guess at how tough, and even violent, Eriko could get. Both girls looked innocent in their slumber.

At some point Eriko woke up, in a dozed short of way as she thought she'd heard something in the hallway, but after a moment she decided it was no threat and went back to sleep, Amira's scent easily lolling the black haired twin to sleep. The scent was known, safe, and constant, unlike everything else in her life. With that thought Eriko's eyes fluttered shut and she once again entered dreamland, her body long since accustomed to such interruptions in her sleep.

The twins had slept in and, by the time they woke they heard some noise outside. Stretching and yawning it was Eriko who got up to investigate the noise. Just as there was a knock on the door Eriko opened it, and nodded when told that there was food. That was different… But she’d take it for what she could. Nodding to the male she turned to her white haired twin, “Sorry to tell you, but you don’t have to cook breakfast.” She said, Amira, sitting on the bed, pouted but got up. “Ok” Was her only answer. Eriko looked as the Black haired male and nodded. “We’ll be out in a bit.” She said, her voice showing she’d just woken. Eriko could never jump out of bed and get right to stuff. it always took her some time to fully wake up, unless of course there’s danger nearby, but even then she reverts to protective mode without fully waking up. Sneaking up to her while she was sleeping/half asleep was a dangerous game to play, for anyone.

About five minutes later the girls were ready, Eriko was still partly asleep but awake enough, and Amira lead to the kitchen. Once at the doorway the girls paused before walking in, the food smelling amazing Amira located their plates and lead her twin to them, Eriko just following, not caring where Amira was really taking her.

Before heading down both girls made sure they were presentable looking. Eriko brushed her own hair, and then Amira’s, braiding her twin’s white hair quickly, a few strands stuck out but it almost added to the look. Eriko then braided her own hair, to keep it from tangling too much. The girls then left their room, and used their noses to find the kitchen. “You’re awfully energetic this morning.” Amira said quietly as they walked down the hall. Eriko only shrugged and lead her sister around a corner and into the room. They had just entered the room when Kit asked them what they’d like to do, ‘that was odd, usually it was them asking what was planned…’ Eriko thought, sharing it with Amira as they both shrugged in response. “What is your plains? “ Eriko asked, her ears flicking as she heard something, and as she looked she saw a bird near the window, Amira looked over and smiled at the bird.

The girls listened to their answers, and it was Amira who spoke up next. “Gardening sounds like fun.” She said, looking up at Eriko who thought a moment before nodding. She wouldn’t mind it, especially when she knew how much Amira really enjoyed working with the earth. Eriko figured that she’d help if needed, but if not then she could just watch, Amira always complained that Eriko didn’t go outside enough. Eriko made sure that Amira ate a good amount of food, though she herself only nibbled, but that was because Eriko was already used to giving most of her food to Amira and now her body simply couldn’t handle too much intake. Amira noticed but didn’t say anything about it, she’d already tried but her twin was just as stubborn as she was her twin.

Amira offered to help Jay with the dishes, but he’d had it under control, and Eriko just sat back and watched, half amused by it. The two girls went outside soon after Jay, neither of then ever bothered with shoes so it didn’t take them long to wash their hands after breakfast and then to head outside. Considering how quickly they got out both girls were surprised that everything was already ready to go. Eriko took a big breath of the air, and had to admit she liked it a whole lot more than the city air they were forced to breath in the past. “Hay, Ami, you smell that?” Eriko asked looking at her twin as Amira closed her eyes and took a big whiff of the air as well. When she opened her eyes the white haired girl smiled. “It’s sweet smelling!” She said, “There’s no smog or any nasty stuff in the air.” She added still happy causing Eriko to smile and nod “That’s right.” She agreed sitting in the grass watching her twin.

Amira looked over at Jay and smiled. “That’s a good point, I never really thought of all those buildings, but it makes sense.” She said, nodding when he mentioned home grown stuff tasting better. “That’s so true, even the scents when cooking smells so much better, and it’s a lot easier to work with because there’s not so many chemicals and still on them.” She said happily the white haired girl grabbed a pair of gloves and started helping him, before looking up to see Eriko just watching. Amira threw her sister the last pair of gloves. “Come on, I’ll show you what’s weeds.” She said, Eriko nodded and kneeled beside her sister to help as well. “We both love berries!” Amira said “But we like almost everything, except the typical nasty stuff like brussel sprouts, and asparagus that just smell awful no matter how you cook it.” She said wrinkling her nose as it the very mention of those foods was bad enough. Eriko, after pulling out a few weeds, settled for lying in the grass behind her sister and listing to the conversation.

Amira’a eyes lit up when he mentioned the wild berried, and her smile grew when he said he could pick some. “Really?! That’d be amazing! If you do then I can make a wild berry pie out of them!” She said, her excitement in her voice, Eriko smiled happy for her sister. Amira laughed a bit when told about how those two things weren’t liked there either. “Those things are horrible! The one time I had to sook them I almost did throw up, Eriko’s reaction was worse, that was the only time she couldn’t be in the same room as me for a few days until the smell wore off. Even I couldn’t stand smelling myself!” She said, shaking her head at the memory. Both of them had been younger then, Eriko’s sensed had just started to get stronger, and Amira’s wasn’t too far behind, those weren’t the best of times as they had no clue what to expect next.

Eriko looked over at Jay. “You said you’re half dragon, but your wings only appear in your other form, which is a wolf, right?” She asked, her question seemingly coming from nowhere but Amira didn’t seem so surprised. Eriko’s tail twitched contently as she laid in the grass, and the black haired girl looked relaxed enough, her ears twitching as she lazily kept a watch out for anything.
