As she sees his wings tremble, she remembers the feather she has in a box in her room, next to the wooden sword from Mauli, and she smiles. "It IS good to have you back," she says. "Where did you go, anyway?" then she adds excitedly, "Did you see Paris? What about New York? Or--" she shuts up, realizing she isn't giving him a chance to speak.

"I was lots of places. I sent some pictures in one of my letters, y'know, and apparently it was one of the events for a contest. It's just like Mum to screw me over like that with my terrible pictures and all.."
He brushes and smoothes out a wing in contemplation. "But, yeah.. bringing home Milla was a highlight, and well, the whole fifth thing.." He lifts his head all of a sudden. "Did I even tell you about that?"
[I'll be back, as well.]

Moofuls ((Psh, Isto's a lazy butt ^_~ 'Course, it's Acia's fault... She keeps trying to take apart his arm, so he's hardly had a moments peace since he changed to fifth))
Though the pillow muffled most sounds, loudly screeching pipes were not one of them. Gritting his teeth, Isto pulls the pillow more tightly over his head. When that didn't help, he lifted it slightly, yelling out at the little brown SM. After all, it had to be Jen. Isto would know that pipe anywhere. "Jen, get a new hobby!" Jen startled at hearing a voice from the sofa... he stared wide eyed at an anthro Sm that he'd never seen before... "Sorry Sir... I didn't mean to wake you up... " There was something strange about him... Had Jen seen him before? He couldn't really tell... it's been a while since he'd been to the Hq... and there WERE a lot of new Sm's... ((Gee... could Gaia be any meaner to me? It kicked me of and I spent all this time trying to get back on!! stare ))

((WB, yo!!!! I thought you died o.o))
"Sir?" Isto reluctantly opens his eyes and sits up, yawning and setting the pillow aside. Almost without thinking he runs his fingers--the normal ones-- through his mohawk, checking to be sure it wasn't bent over sideways or anything. It wasn't. "Don't call me 'sir', short stuff. It makes me feel old." He pauses, grinning, then continues. "How've you been?"

Isto, his brain tells him.... it's Isto... He's not a... He's a... Jen continues to stare. This couldn't be right... Jen didn't even know that Isto had been one of the ones to get an Item... all of a sudden his breath came out in a sob... "Itso... you... you're..." He sobbed again... then he felt very stupid sitting there acting like a baby... but this only made him feel worse... so he quickly turned his head so Isto wouldn't see him cry in case he couldn't get ahold of himself... after a moment he spoke, still turned away... "You... look good."

That...wasn't the reaction he'd been expecting. In a matter of seconds Isto was back to his adult stage and squirming free of a t-shirt, moving around to face Jen. "Oi, what's wrong? Did I do something?"
((Sorry, brb, dinner))

((Sorry, brb, dinner)) "NO... no... I'm just tired... I've been here all day... " Jen still was turned away and as he turned to look at Isto again he was startled not only by the fact that he was closer, but also by the fact that Isto had changed back into the version Jen had always known.... it startled him so much he gasped...then he tried to get control of his breath again "I don't like that... but you're you again... " Jen just sat staring at Isto... looking like he was about to bolt or burst into tears... still he just stared with wide eyes... ((glad you get to eat at the comp biggrin ))

((Ditto, m'friend ^_~))
Isto was...confused, to say the least. It takes him a while to realize what the problem was... "Ohh....." Sitting, he changes back to fifth stage, absently reaching back towards the couch for his shirt. "I changed a few days ago. Sunday night. You didn't know I was going to be fifth stage?"

"no... I haven't been here much. I've been studying. Mom made me learn some of how to read... " His face contorts again... "I can read a little now... It's all because she's making me learn Monkey Signs... she thinks it'll be nice if I ever meet your new brother... she makes me study a little everyday... " he runs a paw under his nose and sniffles... then turns and picks up the pipe and starts picking at it again... then he glances up at Isto and frowns... he returns hie eyes to his picking but can't help himself... "Is it worth it? *mumbles* willyoustillwanttotalktome "

"Talk to you...?" He blinks, then laughs, the sound somewhat muffled as he pulls the shirt back on. "'Course I still want to talk to you!! I haven't changed any, really. Just appearance-wise. I'm still the same as I was before. Just...with thumbs and a mohawk." Grinning, Isto move back around to lean against the sofa, returning to the subject of Jen's reading habits. "Well, good! Reading's important. There're all sorts of things you can't do without being able to read. I enjoy reading..." He shrugs, "Maybe you just haven't found the right book? You can borrow some of mine if you'd like."
He falls momentarily silence, thoughts wandering to his little..big... to his brother. "Banda stayed home today. He's not feeling well... Moo thinks he's just got a little cold, so I'm not worried. I'm learning SMSL as well. It's easiest for talking with him... Cool kid, you'd like him."
