Kibo opens a single eye, looking at Maida hopping on his chest. He smiles broadly and sits up as Maida jumps, so she landed on the bed, behind him. He jumps up, talking in a more sing-songy voice than normal, almost to the point where one might question his... preferences.
Kibo: Good morning, all! Or is it afternoon? I can't tell in here...
He laughs, almost on the verge of a giggle.

"It's aftrnoon." "Don't you have an internal clock?" "Like us?"
Zia tilted her head in an oddly bird like movment.

Kibo pokes his stomach, a little pout on his face.
Kibo: I guess not... Well, no matter. Whaddya wanna do, littluns?!

Zia and Maida looked at Kibo thoughtfully.
"Do you have any jellybeans left?" "We are oh so fond of them," "You see."

Kibo: Of course!
He runs out of the room, returning a few moments later with two bags of jellybeans, each as big as he was.

Zia and Maida's eyes sparkled with want, and something..stronger. One might of said greed, if one did not see the obviously innocent and pure girls.
"Oh mister Kibo!" "You are an angel!"
The girls ran to him, placed a wet kiss on either cheek and grabbed one the bags, dragging it to a wall, where they could comfortably sit, and eat. After a few handfulls were downed, they were, of course, curious again.
"So," "Mother told us you were married once?" "What happened?"

Kibo's flamboyant smile faded, his arms fell to his sides, and his head drooped. He half-sits, half-falls onto the bed, his head in his hands.
Kibo: I... don't want to talk about it.

Zia and Maida pouted.
"Pretty please?" "With sugar and jelly beans," "And gumdrops and whip cream," "And cherries and cheese?"
They ruined this effect by poping another handful of jelly beans each into their mouths.

Kibo shakes his head frantically, hoping they didn't notice the tiny droplet that flew through the air as he did so. His eyes were completely hidden by black hair, so they couldn't see his eyes, which was quite a relief.

Zia and Maida mistook his negitive for a dislike for the things they tried to verbally persaude him with.
"You don't like cherries and cheese?" "And gumdrops and whip cream?" "And sugar and jelly beans?" "What about swords?" "And blood?" "Does that sound better?"

"Fine," "Then."
A thing previously unknown to all of the crow girl's history: they let something drop first.
"Well then," "What do you want to talk about?"

Kibo shakes his head, seemingly shaking off the very bad feelings that were filling him. He looks up, smiling again.
Kibo: I dunno! Let's do something!
He snaps his fingers, and the once again semi-solid Adoni runs out of a bed, jumping onto Kibo's shoulder.

"Adoni!" "Play dead!"
Adoni just looks at them. Zia and Maida tittered.
"That never gets old," "Does it?" "Race you up the rat lines?" "You are on!"
The girls dashed out of the room, paused and dashed back in.
"We bet," "We can bet an old man like you," "Up those ropes."

Kibo: Old man? Well, at least I'm not a spirit.
He smirks, walking calmly out of the room, and ondeck, looking at the ratlines, his head slightly cocked to the side.
Kibo: Hmm... Yeah, I think I can beat you.
