Xiu Xue's brows furrowed in confusion. "I suppose so-" she stopped herself from finishing. The law certainly didn't consider her a woman, merely a child still. She didn't think it mattered to Reiha though. Giving a smile, she merely shook her head. "Are you here by yourself, Reiha?"
"Why would I want you to leave?" he asked looking at his sister. If this was teaching him anything, it was that girls were confusing. He tilted his head, "We could read about birds together, Reiha. Korbin could read with us, too." He smiled nodding his head.

No, the law was an anoyence to her, nothing more, nothing less. Reiha wasn't concered with it. She might be some day, as something to learn. Till then she just saw it as the thing stoping her from being alone.
"No, Adian's around here somewhere" she said with a shrug, not really caring.Then she looked to Kasch with surpise. She thought she was anoying him, but he didn't seem to want her to leave. She glanced at Korbin, "Can you read?"
Korbin glared up at her, lovingly of course but he glared at everyone. "No of course not" he said with a sort. "I have no use for reading" he said, almost proudly. He was hapy being an animal. He only wished he could be human because then he could protect Reiha better. Love her better.
"Korbin doesn't read" Reiha translated for Kash, "but I would like to read about birds" she said honestly. "We can read about blackbirds. I'd like to meet your bird sometime. What is he like? Does he have a name?"

"He can look at the pictures with us." Kasch suggested with a smile looking at Korbin. "Well, I haven't named him. Once he's healed he'll be leaving. I'm just taking care of him. Someone hurt him and the nice man, Pere, gave him to me when I got off the train." His face went from embarrassed to sad and then to happy, smiling as if everyone came off a train or something. Then again it was Gaia and stranger things had happened to others, not that he knew this but it didn't occur to him that it might be strange. It didn't occur that they might have both come off the train either and it wasn't like he had a reason to hide where he came from.
"I'll let you two read for awhile then. Perhaps I can find yo-I mean, Adian." She gave a smile her white furred skin blanching at her mistake. Saying that Adian was her father just seemed like a bad idea from the aura the girl gave off, she obviously didn't think she needed anyone. Xiu Xue doubted that Reiha thought she needed a father or thought of Adian that way. No one she knew called their guardians or parents by their first name.

"I think Korbin will like that" Reiha said with a smile. He was nice, really nice. She would try to be nice back. Or at least as nice as she got. "Oh, so you aren't going to keep him?" she asked, "That's too bad, I mean I don't aprove of forcing them to stay. Korbin stays because he wants to and no other reason" Reiha said asured. She would hate if she thought Korbin was staying because he felt he had to.
Reiha glanced up at the woman girl and nodded, "He's lurking over there" she informed her, pointing to Adian who did look like he was lurking. Standing there in the shadows, trying to keep a good eye on Reiha without dealing with bugging her.

"He's taking care of my bird egg until it hatches. And I'm taking care of him." Kasch smiled nodding his head as he opened the book. Rather than move, he plopped down seeing no reason to move. No one else was around so they weren't in anyones way or anything. Plus it provided shelter from the librarians so they couldn't see Korbin as well.
Xiu Xue thanked Reiha. She made her way over to Aidan and gave a smile. "Adian? I'm Xiu Xue, Kasch's sister," she introduced herself. She offered her hand, her puppy dog ears swiveling back waiting to see if he was nice or not.

"You're welcome" Reiha commented as she sat next to the winged boy and then reached up to feel one of his wings. She was never a shy girl, or one to worry to much about permision, she wasn't hurting him and he was nice. He shouldn't get mad, she just wanted to now what it felt like.
"So you have an egg? Cool, Korbin came to me all grown up. I'd love to take care of an egg though. Can I see your egg sometime?" Reiha quired, that be cool.
Adian smiled a bit as the girl walked over. He wasn't picky when it came to females. He found many, hell most, beautiful. That was his favorite part about women was that there was something beautiful about each of them. Or at least most. Some just seem pretty.
"Hi, I'm going to asume Kasch is Wingy over here" Adian said, jabbing his thumb to the white winged boy. "He's cute, the brat over there is my charge, Reiha"

Kasch's wings fluttered, startled by the sudden touch. He looked at Reiha giving a blush. "You startled me," he confessed giving a laugh. Listening to her questions, he pondered. "Ok," he nodded.
"Yes, he's the one with the wings," she nodded. She tilted her head, "She does seem opinated." She didn't want to agree that Reiha was a brat and she really didn't know the girl.

She gave him a sheepish sort of grin, "I just really like your wings" she explained and then shrugged, She gave him a smile thought. "It feels soft" she added him to him and then glanced down at the book, almost feeling shy. Almost.
She ignored the feeling by contrating on the book till it passed. She didn't like that feeling, so she ignored it. She would not settle for being shy. Shy would hold her back and Reiha wouldn't let that happen.
Adian laughed, "Which is a nice way to say she's a brat" he said with a grin, "I know, I sound awful but it's true" he told her seriously. "She can be nice, if she likes you, other wise she's a huge brat. At least she's open about her dislike. Not one to lie much, Reiha"

"S'okay. Just startled me," he said settling his wings down. He smiled looking at the book. The title image looked exactly like his bird and he pointed to it. "I hope that's what my egg grows up to be. I don't know of any birds that lay black eggs though," he admitted.
"It's good that she doesn't lie, you don't have to worry if she's telling the truth," Xiu Xue piped up but really she didn't know what else to say. She wasn't sure what to think of Reiha to be honest. Giving a shrug of her shoulders, she pondered silently for a moment. "I take it then, Reiha isn't your daughter by birth. If she is, I do apologize."

"I bet we can find out" she told him, raising, up and looking at all the books. "How big is the egg?" she asked him, "I think ostrishes lay blackish eggs but they are very big" she sid with a sort of 'that would be obvious' shurg. She sat back down to look at the bird and smiled. It was a pretty bird. Reiha moved so Korbin, who rested in her arms, could see it.
Adian laughed again and slipped his hands into his pockets. "Naw, I didn't get to do anything fun to get this chick" He said with the shake of his hed, "I found the little brat and that bitter crow on train" he said, with a shrug not all that unlike Reiha's.

"It's small, it fits in my hand." He lifted his hands up, using his fingers to measure his palm. He squinted as he tried to figure out how big it was. "An inch?" he guessed, his cheeks a soft pink as he blushed.
The dog tahnee looked at him, her ears perking up. Train? "A train? That's interesting. Adam said he found Kasch on a train," the last part she whispered more to herself. Maybe the gargoyle had been telling the truth for once about where he got something. "I think he said it was called the Naviat, is that where you got Reiha?" she asked intrigued.
"Well then it's proably not an ostridge" Reiha said with a grin, "but there asked to be something else. Maybe it's a special bird" she suggested as she looked at the fingers on his palm. It was small, very small. She smiled, she bet a pretty bird came out of it, then Kasch could have a nice bird. Reiha held Korbin close. Having a bird for a friend was great.
Adian shrugged, "Didn't notice a name" he said honestly, "Wasn't aware trains were named. But I met this other chick who got a kid this way" Adian mentioned, "She runs this place that goes with it with a friend" he tried to explain. "Apparently there are a few of these kids"
Kasch flipped the pages looking for any sign of blackbird eggs. They didn't were black. That didn't mean it couldn't be or wasn't a blackbird. He pondered quietly before looking to Reiha. "Does Korbin like to other birds much?" he asked glancing at the crow. He wondered if Korbin would like his bird once it hatched, it would be a disappointment if the crow didn't. Birds should have other bird friends, shouldn't they?
"Oh." She gave a slight sigh. That wasn't really helpful but she guess she should've expected it. She doubted someone would've taken detailed notes of the train's name and the color, what it was like and where exactly they found the child, and the child's first words. No, that was expecting too much. "I'd like to meet some of the others," she mumbled ignoring the word chick. She was thankful no one called her that, it sounded so possessive in a sense.

"I don't know" Reiha admited honestly, "I never seen him with any other birds" She looked down at Korbin worried. She knew he didn't like people because they hurt her but birds? Why did he not like birds?
"Korbin do you like other birds?"
Korbin shifted, a bit tired of being held but Reiha seemed to like it so he didn't want to complain about it. Korbin glared at the winged boy, he nliked th eother one better. Sei was afraid of Korbin there for Korbin knew he wouldn't dare hurt Reiha was Korbin was around in fear of getting attacked. Which was just how he liked it. Kasch on the other hand seemed merely intrested, which wasn't useful at all.
"Not really" he grumbled, "They're slow compared to you." Korbin said, almost proudly.
"Korbin says he doesn't because they're slow" Reiha informed Kasch, since she was the messenger he didn't put an apology in her tone. She was saying what Korbin thought and nothing more. Then she added on what she thought, "I'm sure he like your bird though Kasch" she said with a smile.
Adian grined at the odd girl. he didn't think much about his words, unless he was trying to flirt. He didn't see a problem in calling a girl a chick. He didn't see the insult in it. And peopel who did was stuck up in his mind. Still he just grined at the dog tahnee.
"Yeah I would too" he said honetly, "though Reiha is at least making friends. Maybe I should have your number so she can call for a play date sometime" Adian said, he thought quite smothly.

"That's a shame, I hope he will like my bird. He should have a bird friend," Kasch thought. He nodded his head in agreement with himself. Some birds probably were slow compared to most people. It really wasn't in their nature to converse like humans but some birds were special.
"It's nice to see Kasch has met a friend. I'm sure he'll want to see Reiha again. You can reach us at 555-2995 but you shouldn't call at night," Xiu Xue added. Adam would most likely chew him out. She sighed at the thought, he was impossible.

Adian grined, sweet, a number. He dug though his pockets, grabbing the pen and paper he slipped into all of his clothes. Now it was mostly due to habit but that habit was made just for situations like these. "555-2995" he said as he wrote, above it he wrote Wingy and beow xiu xie, no night. "Okay got it" he said and slipped it away before grining at her warmly.
Reiha glanced up and saw Adian then rolled her eyes, "Adian's acting stupid again" she mummbled anoyed, "He got that stupid grin that says he wants to talk oddly to women. He only talks that way to girls, or woman girls"

"Should I tell my sister to stay away from him then?" Kasch asked. He turned to look at the two and wasn't fond of the way Adian seemed to be looking at his sister. He wasn't sure if it was bad or not but it wasn't good.
Xiu Xue was rather oblivious. "We should probably go soon," she said referring to her and Kasch. She wanted to get her little brother home.
