Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aiden stroked Lainey's arm lightly, a soft smile showing how he was moved by her aproval of his appearance. "Aye, tha' she did."

Her upright ear flicked, the only sign Relm heard anything said as the five foot tall femme leaned into her beau's embrace to return his kiss with a passion she could not deny. Not with the way he was dressed, or the feel of his chest through the muscle shirt beneath her fingers as the pictomancer clutched as much as she dared in public. Which was far more than she intended to dare, feelings and longings having their own say beyond her logic. Breathlessly she pulled back, eyes glazed, before Rikku could shout something about the pot calling the kettle black. Love you, Keme. She mouthed silently, hands lightly stroking his chest. "I'll call the ninaus." Relm was about to whistle, when a blur of cyan zoomed from the house and around the side. Sounds of harnesses being attatched could be heard followed by the sound of heavy feet coming around the left side of the home. Relm smiled in a sheepish manner, leaning forward to rest her head upon Keme's chest, tucking her head beneath his chin and willing her heartbeat to return to some semblance of normal from his proximity -yet not wanting to step away as she should. "Guess Speedy's handling it. And sure. Why not, Romeo." Not like the Big Guy doesn't know the way.

Rikku laughed, pulling herself tigher to her shinobi as her own tail flicked about eagerly. "Told you Yahto was helpful, Relm!!"

The cyan blur returned, stopping with the others to grin broadly and look about. Now that he could be seen, it was apparant the yoshi audio still wore his lavender boots. Adding to the mix Relm had him dressed in red runing shorts with white trim -matching his shell and back-spines- with a lavender hawaiian print shirt with red & white hybiscus. Yahto had slashed the back up to the colar so that his spines & shell were not impeeded by the shirt. Seeing the full effect, Relm had to stifle a laugh into Keme's chest while trying to pull him towards where she knew the wagon would stop.

Yahto waved blithely to the group before his brown eyes landed on his friend Chii & he bounded over to her and the tall two-toned male with a grin. "Chii-friend! Hi!! And a friend! Hi! Oh! Metal parts like the kitsu that's been staying with us! Cool! I'm Yahto! Chii & me're dancing buds, right Chii?" Oh yea. No tact. No shame. But the smile was full and genuine and warm.

Now could be seen two large creatures whose broad backs were not quite 6 feet from the ground. Large eyes smiled in broad faces framed on one side with long flowing manes. Their wide feet were not quite cloven, seeming to consist of two wide frontward toes and a third backfacing toe all nearly hidden in the long sock fur. Their tails started like a lion's then feathered from that into a horse's. The larger of the two was white with gray markings, blue mane, tail, & eyes, with a pale blue moon upon the horns jutting backwards behind his ears. The other was more fidgety, stepping lightly with pent up energy that shifted his red mane & tail about as well as giving the illusion that the snowflake pattern of his coat moved. A wagon lined with weather-resistant cushions was attached to the pair & followed safely behind. Aiden grinned and tucked Lainey's hand into the crook of his arm. " Well, I dinnae see a reason te wait..." He said with a light chuckle, quickly but unhurriedly leading his lassie to their transportation. Rikku squealed & tugged Naruto so they could jump aboard.

Vash's two colored eyes watched as she split open her one of her 'ears'. He blinked at the wires, very briefly a thought ran through his mind before slipping out. I'm dating a robot... cyborg... thing?! He frowned slightly as he looked back to his fake arm. He didn't know how to explain that it wasn't real... well, she could probably guess that it wasn't real, but he meant that it was the only thing on him that wasn't real. He sighed in relief softly when the other audio joined them. He chuckled awkwardly as Chii introduced them and nodded to him in greeting. "It's nice to meet you Yahto. So, you taught Chii to dance? Either she or both of you would have to show me." At the sight of the wagon, or at least the creatures pulling them, his jaw dropped... quite literally almost. He's never seen anything like them. Actually, he wasn't sure what were more interesting, the creatures or Thomas'.

The Egyptian, on the otherhand, just huffed when the creatures came up with the wagon pulling behind them. Although he found them to be curious looking, he generally didn't care as he walked to the mode of transportation. Hearing word of sitting on other's laps, he huffed before climbing into a seat in the back. "I will kill anyone who sits on my lap..." He threatened, crossing his arms and glaring at the ones around him.

Hearing Mariku's threat, Gojyo rolled his eyes. "If someone needs to sit on your lap, you're letting them do it. Or I'm making you walk to the park." He replied with a threat of his own. He sighed and looked back to Morgana, watching her fiddle with the dark locks and the ribbon. "Don't worry about it Babe. You can tell me when you're ready." He told her as she motioned her over to the wagon so he could help her into it.

((O_O guys... it's a friggin' huge wagon. *rereads post* buggers... guess I wasn't clear about that. *sighs* Supposed to be big enough it needs two ninaus to pull it... thought that giving the height of their backs was enough. Ninaus can carry 2-3 audios or humans (size-wise, not weight) riding, and are even stronger than they look. Probably double or more the strength of a regular horse their size, if I remember correctly. *wishes winterfalcon was around to refresh memory*
oh well. Sorry. my bad. *figures a way to make it work & grins*))

Aiden's smile was both pleased and a little devious at his beloved's question. Putting his mouth to her ear he sucked in his breath slowly before softly murmuring "Aye, my bonnie love. 'Cause I wish i' too. So I can nibble on tha' lovely neck o' yers while ye be socializin' fer th' both o' us." With that he lightly hopped onto the steps from the back, holding her hand to guide her up.

Hering Morgan's question he gve her & the Kappa a light smile. "There'll be room, Lassie. Ye'll see." All the while the Highlander was figuring out how to have her on his lap the way he wanted without hurting her wings or them getting in the way. There was plenty of room -for like the rooms of the house it seemed to be bespelled & as the udios climbed aboard expanded to accomodte them all- but their was no reason for couples not to be close with stretch out room between them. Aiden finally decided that if Lainey pulled her wings close & wrapped them a little about her shoulders he would both be able to get to that neck of hers and hide a bit behind a wing if he wanted to, while still being able to wrap his arms tightly about her waist. He smiled, sitting down and patting his lap to invite his lass upon it.

Yahto cheerily hugged the AudioCom back with relish, innocent happy smile never faltering. In fact, it grew. "One just for you? That's great!" He grinned at Vash, honestly happy for them both. Yahto was not so dense he did not understand what a pairing was -even if it was highly unlikely he would ever think of one for himself. "Grats guys! That's terrific! & yeah, Chii & me'll teach ya to dance if you want Vash. Anything for my pal Chii's guy. Right, Chii?"

Rikku giggled, tail tightening around the ninja's as it wrapped around hers. It was always such fun when Naruto carried her about like that. She purred through her giggles, pressing her muzzle between his chin & neck. "Ha!! Maybe I'll be the one winning you prizes!!" She teased, heart thumping happily at the thought of how much fun they would be having today.

Relm gratefully leaned into her love as his hold turned possessive, letting her gaze follow his to Goyjo and surprisingly coming to a wrong conclusion. Still she waited to comment, letting herself float with happiness that Keme was taking charge once more in leading her to the wagon. She whispered in a consoling tone into Keme's ear just before he pulled her into his lap once they were on the wagon."He loves her, right? She'll be fine."

"C'mon! Let's get aboard!" Grinning, Yahto zipped into the wagon & quirked his head at the two grumblers before smilng brightly. "Hi! I'm Yahto! Who're you?" With that he flopped into the center, not even flinching as Relm stretched out her legs & used his prone body for a footstool.

Then Rikku looked up, swirling green eyes wide in sudden surprise. "Wait... Where're Yunie and Tidus?" A slow flash of inspiration lit her face with a brilliant light, her eyes laughing. "Maybe they had to ... 'sleep in' & they'll meet us there?" The Al Bhed giggled, turning her face into Naruto's chest as she shook with thoughts of what her cousin & the blitzer might be doing.

"Aww... but Babe, if you fly... I won't get to cuddle you like all the other couples are." Gojyo said playfully, wrapping his arms around her and leaning down to place a small kiss on her lips. He had decided to ignore Naruto's immature action and Keme's look to him for now, but if it continued later, things wouldn't be so peaceful.

His red eyes glanced up at the flutter winged audio when he spoke up. He then smirked as he looked back to his feather winged beauty. "See Babe, there's room for you. And if you're still not sure, you can sit on my lap. I can't guarantee that I won't poke you every now and again." He told her with a wink and a chuckle as he lead her to the wagon.

In the back of the wagon, Mariku was trying to filter out all the noise and chatter from the others, keeping his violet eyes closed so not to see any of the mushy stuff. He just waited for everyone to get in, so they can go and get this out of the way already... but of course, he couldn't get what he wanted, tail flicking aggrivatedly. Upon hearing someone's voice nearby, he just hoped they were speaking to someone else. Luckily, perhaps, someone did reply to the other, so the Egyptian remained silent, still waiting for departure.

Vash had let the previous occurance about his fake arm slip his mind as the two before him hugged and conversed. It was when Yahto had offered to help teach him how to dance when he chuckled awkwardly. With that, he lifted a hand to rub the back of his head. "Ahaha... no...no. That won't be neccisary. You see... I have two left feet." He told them before watching as the male zipped away and to the wagon. He blinked at the sheer speed, Did that really happen or am I just seeing things? He thought for a moment before hearing Chii's comment. It was there that his lips curled into a devious little grin, but then he remembered about Lainey and it quickly left. "Ahh... Chii can sit on Vash's lap if Chii wants... Chii doesn't have to though." He told her, offering his hand to her to walk her to the wagon.

But Aiden only chuckled softly with gold eyes glinting, placing a light n** on the back of Lainey's neck once she was in his lap and had paused in her talking. Having shifted to kiss Naruto's chin the blonde thief looked over to the firework female, eyes still big about her new wings but surprisingly her mouth did not comment on them. Aiden had warned them about Morgana & Lainey & Miranda's wings... but seeing them was another thing altogether. Of course it helped seeing her 'brother' treat his lass no different than before & it made her smile to see Morgy with the Perv... eh, Gojyo, because he made her smile. But the prizes.... Rikku grinned goofily. "Oh, we'll find a way! Won't we, my ninja?" Laughing she reached up and lightly pinched at his whisker-marks, swirling green eyes bright.

Relm had to chuckle, then glanced up at her own beau with an arched brow that said 'no need to prove your macho-ness to me with games' with a grin. She had twisted side ways a little to look up t him nd now her eyes slid down his chest and the form fitting shirt Keme wore making her shiver. It was going to be a long day, but Espers! Relm would certainly enjoy it!

If Yahto had heard Vash's comment about two left feet he showed no sign. Likely the yoshi would bring it up later with some oblivious statement that it sure looked like the two-toned male hd both a right & a left leg. But he grinned up at his new friend (everyone was a friend to Yahto) & waged his tail. "Pleased to meetcha, Hitsygaya Toushiro! Whew! That's a mouthful! Got something shorter than that?"

Once they were certain everyone was onboard the wagon the ninaus broke into a trot over the trail back out of the woods. Their great feet kicked up the sweet smell of the tiny purple blooms mid the green covering of the path as they trotted. Like the wagon, the path seemed to widen to accomodate their passage. The shocks on the wagon must have been great for bumps were barely noticble amid the gentle rolling even when the ninau reached open space and broke into a gallop. It would not take long to arrive at their destination

Then Rikku snapped to awareness again, having been caught offguard by Lainey's question. Twisting in Naruto's grip she looked from him to Keme to Morgy and back with a worried expression. "Yunie & Tidus are going to join us there? Right?" Her last word wavered heavily with emotion.

Mariku remained silent as he eyed the other audios in the wagon or climbing into the wagon. He tried his best to tune them out, but with so many of them around, he was having a problem. He would have even more of a problem once they got to the park. Idley, he tapped his fingers over the gold bands around his arms, trying his best to wait patiently for their departure.

Vash chuckled at her question. I should have known she wouldn't understand it. He thought before telling her with a slight shake of his head. "It's just an expression that means I'm too clumsy to learn how to dance." The tall audio had looked around to see where the others were at exactly and saw Lainey. He frowned slightly as he looked away before she could glare at him. He knew he started off on the wrong foot with her... perhaps there was a way to get in her good graces again? He would have to figure it out later, right now... to attend to Chii and make her happy. "Chii gets what Chii wants." So it was then that he led her to the wagon, climbing in and helping her up into and onto his lap.

When he helped Morgy up into the wagon, the kappa couldn't help but smirk at the sight he saw. After he was in the wagon and she was on his lap, he wrapped his arms around her. He glanced to the other couples and the two that didn't seem to have a pair... unless, they were the pair... before glancing back to her. He murred softly, happy to have her on his lap as he leaned over, kissing her ear and whispering softly. "Now I really guarantee that I won't poke you... especially after what I just saw."

((*giggles* Wasn't what Lainey said, just that what she said distracted Rikku a sec from her question. *winks*))

Golden eyes sparkled back at Lainey, showing Aiden was more than up for the challenge. He murmured his answer into her neck teasingly. "Aye, my bonnie lassie. Ye just tell me which ye want, an' I'll see te it tha' it's yers."

Yahto blinked at the exchange between siblings and grinned. "Kay, Hitsugaya! But what's with the Shiro-chan thing? Is that like Relm calling me Speedy? 'Cause it sounds nuthin' like your name."

Rikku meeped in surprise as she was suddenly a shield and had lost a bit of breath from the fierceness of the shinobi's hug, looking back and forth between Morgana and Keme in both confusion at what might have happened and delight that Yuna & Tidus would be joining them there. "Oh!! What did they do Ruto?"

"Yes... do tell, Naruto." Relm's eyes twinkled with something between danger and fun.

With a sideways glance at the others Aiden gave a soft smile before pulling his love tighter into his embrace and hugging her fiercely. When he answered his soft voice was in her ear to be heard by Lainey alone. "Ach, lassie. Tha' be one thing I cannae promise ye as tis nay in my power te control. A wee bairn grows, ye ken. But I promise te guide an' love an' mold our wee ones wit' ye, so that when i' comes time fer them te be grown, we can be proud o' th' choices they make bein' good."

The ninaus were surging forward, the wagon they pulled barely seeming to bump at all across the ground. Green eyes darted over those gathered, counting. Relm frowned slightly, then with a resigned sigh put her hand to her ear as they neared their destination. "Myr? I really hate asking this... but could you get one of the wizards to follow Bubbles' tracker & get her to the amusement park? hmm. Well, yeah.. but I didn't have the heart to leave Speedy behind... *sighs* yeah... I know... just do it, please? We're nearly there. Oh. And get her a sundress and some sandals or something, okay? Thanks, Myr." She glanced up sheepishly at Keme, her insides uneasy about the decision she had just made. But they needed to be even numbers.... Maybe we'll be lucky and she won't try to have sex with everyone who lets her near...

The parking lot and subsequent entrance of the park loomed before them. Yahto, laughing looked at everyone to share his mirth then realized there was one still who had not spoken. He grinned at the male who was tapping his fingers on shiny gold bands that were worn on his arms. "Hey! So what's your name?"
