"Nothing," she replied with another bright smile, although now she was blushing a faint red color on her cheeks. Humming cheerfully, she didn't seem to notice her son roll his eyes and grunt in discontent. Either way, he had quickly opened the crate and was now carefully setting down the bed inside and looking to his mother. -_- She wasn't going to be much help, was she?
Delta blinked and noticed him paw her. Paw HER and her beautiful feathers. ;__; Well, there was no damsel Aerandir here now.. he was like that evil water that splashed her and made her wet and icky. And he didn't have to rub in he had claws when she had mere hooves. Suddenly squawking in discontent, she decided to try to n** at the offending paw before it moved.

Nyxa knew that she'd seen Kiro at the centre, but she wasn't sure of his name. Moving to him she extended her hand and smiled engagingly. "I'm Nyxa. Lucius is my Aerandir." She eyed his hair with visible disgruntlement and cleared her throat. Damn long-haired men frequenting the island were going to be the death of her.
Luc almost dropped the plushie when she snapped at him. Confused, he backed away, limping with comical dramatics. A few feet from her he flopped onto his side and writhed, low, keening sounds of farcical pain vibrating past the little purple critter in his mouth. He wasn't really hurt, but if she got down offa that damn box he could pounce her right n' proper.

Kiro couldn't help but blink at Nyxa's disgruntlement. It made him pause long enough to lose any boldness he'd convinced himself to acquire, and he took her hand shaking it gently. "I'm Anakiro... well, everyone calls me Kiro I guess... I haven't been here too long." Finished with the introductions, he turned to look at Sy, who seemed to be moving in.
"Need a hand with anything?" he called, willing to help.

Onuris paused to look at the stick-thin, wiry, small, and young cat-boy asking if he needed help moving a queen-sized bed in the house and doubted, at once, the kid's sanity. He wouldn't be mean, of course, but he wasn't sure that Kiro could help. ^^;;; "Why don't you help my mother get that end of the bed, and I'll get this end?"
Hooking his fingers under one side, he gently lifted his end to get a sense of weight as his mother waited at the other end, thanking Kiro profusely for any help he was willing to give. All things considering, they looked to be of about the same strength.
Delta blinked, for a moment resolute to peer at him from her perch. After all, HE started it... but then she felt a twinge of guilt. Maybe with her astounding beauty she was also super-strong and had actually hurt him? Jumping down lightly from the box, she nudged him with her beak and tries to roll him over.

Quickly, Kiro nodded. He also took in the man's expression with a good-natured smile, aware he wouldn't be much help. But some help's better than none at all right?
"Like this?" he asked, taking the other end and waiting for Sy to give him a hand before trying to lift it.

Nyxa moved out of the way and watched the procession with interest. If it wasn't for all the long hair blowing around today she'd be willing to help, but as it was she didn't think it was a wise thing to offer.
Luc waited slyly until Delta was close enough and with a loud screech he was on the move, swinging out with his paws in hopes to playfully knock her down for a good tussle. He missed playing with the others, and he was trying to lure this one into a bout of good, hard rasslin'. She seemed as sturdily built as he was, and he was of complete belief that she'd make the perfect wrestle-pal. Despite all of the goings on, he never let loose of that purple plushie. Not in a million years.

Sy nodded to him and she helped him lift up one rather... heavy half. x___x Before she could object, Onuris was leading them into the house, carefully angling it to get inside the door. Of course, the Aerandir were in their way, being in the middle of the main room of the house.
Delta screeched in indignation at this awful manly Aerandir knocking her down and ruining her beautiful feathers, which made her righteously upset. She was about to pull out his beautiful feathers and make him ugly (a truly horrific notion) when she saw the huge bed and three humans coming their way. Scamping in pure fear, she skittered to the corner of the room and prayed she wouldn't be stepped on.

Struggling at first, Kiro adjusted his grip and followed on without complaint. He followed the angling with Sy's help to get through the door, and then felt his ears twitch at the sound of the Aerandir scooting around outside of his eyesight.
"Are they out of the way?" he asked, his steps now infinately more cautious, terrified of stepping on one of them.

Nyxa hollered at the oblivious Luc, idly watching a rather finely stacked Onuris heft the bed into the house followed by the struggling Kiro and Sy. She chuckled at Kiro's worried tone, watcing Luc scoot out of the way. "You're fine, the path is clear."
Luc gave chase to Delta, trotting up to her with a somewhat chagrined look in his eyes. He was only trying to play, he wasn't sure what he'd done wrong, but he felt bad especially since she was a girl and all. With a questioning chirp, he nosed her shoulder apologetically before dropping his beloved slightly-damp purple plushie at her feet.

Delta was half-glaring and half-staring at the evil humans and their entirely too large feet before she noticed Luc. Blinking at him and then at the... rather disgusting plushie, she ruffled her feathers and nuzzled him. Well, if he was humbling himself to her, she wouldn't object. And maybe if he realized she was letting him keep his... purple... wet... THING he would respect her.
As soon as they hefted it into the bedroom, Onuris lowered it and let them rest as he pushed the bed into the middle of the room. It was small, only having room for perhaps a few pieces of furniture. The windows had been changed into ones with tumbled glass so the light got through but they couldn't be seen in easily. The wall also had some work done and the upper half was also a tumbled glass sort that let light through. The one wall without windows of any sort was the one the bed was pushed against and was painted a rather vibrant blue.

Kiro promptly sat himself on the floor in an attempt to catch his breath, his ears leaning forward a little and his tail twitching about his ankles. He glanced up at Sy with a questionning look. "Anything else?" He hoped whatever he helped with next would be something smaller.

Nyxa remained out of the way, slightly shocked that Luc had given in so easily. She chuckled, hearing Kiro's breathless question, leaning up against the wall with a shake of her head.
Luc wasn't sure what the hell was going on now. He nuzzled her back, chirping charmingly at the pretty female. Dipping his head he nudged the purple plushie towards her, a symbol of his intentions. He only wanted to play, and if giving up his pretty purple plush was the way to get on the good side of Delta, so be it.

Sy just sort of rubbed her head and laughed uneasily, which obviously meant there was much more to move in. After a pause of thought, however, as to the weight of the frame and mattress, she tried to sound optimisitic.
"That was the heaviest thing. Some of it's just bulky..." she offered a little abashed. Here she was, taking help from a honest, kind cat-boy who obviously didn't have the physical prowess to really do anything but pull his muscles.
"Don't worry, 'Onu and I can get it," she offered. Onuris thought differently, but he wasn't going to say anything to Kiro, having the same want to save him from the hard labour that Sy did.
Delta curled around Lucius with a contended coo, not the least bit irritated with him now. And he was soft.. that was the important thing. Colorful and soft... and now he was playing nice, although she still wasn't interested in his toy. She pushed it back at him and blinked. Too bad beaks didn't let her smile.

Kiro couldn't help but frown slightly. He was a tough little thing, and he was aware of it. He just looked weedy. And he sincerely wanted to lend a hand... "Are you sure?"

Nyxa yawned and grinned at the trio, "Sy, you have too much stuff. I mean, I'm sleeping on furs and blankets, not queen-sized beds." She shook her head with a wry grin, attention moving back to the two Aerandir who were cozying up in the corner of the living room.
Luc blinked his black eyes at the larger female, a questioning, "Braaawk?" directed towards her. She wasn't into playing, so with a resigned sigh he flopped down with her, idly preening her pretty royal blue feathers with a soft chitter. He ignored the nudge that she gave the plushie, fulling intending to leave it behind when he left.
