 August 9th, 2005Journal Entry 019 I had a nice chat with Taranis today, after he had completed a few tasks I had set up to help him train. Although i don't know exactly what he was saying, I had a few ideas and answered...Hopefully correctly. When Taranis learns to talk like...Iniko for instance it'll be great. Being able to understand him perfectly will be wonderfull. And no more 'peeping'. I just hope he lightens up a bit more once he gets older. He's awfly good at keeping to himself when he wants to be and he's usually all alone. I think I might bring home my cat soon, even if Taranis is using its bed. Maybe it'll get him to be more...Sociable.
...Of course he will socalise with others, but I find that he doesn't get along to well with others...Maybe when he truely starts his job he'll be able to get over that fact or at lest be nice about things.
Well I cleaned up the hose today...It seemed like it took forever, the place was so dusty! Taranis however just lied on the couch all day. He did allow me to rub his tummy at one point, I think he liked it. he reminds me so much of a little puppy sometimes. Well I better end this entry up now. I can hear the little guy calling...Maybe I can understand him this time.

August 18th, 2005 Journal Entry 020 I have no luck at all today! I was jogging home and I triped over a rock. Graceful eh? Well anyways I think I sprained my anckle, because it really hurst right about now. Taranis is as usual, squaking as much as he can and taking advantage of the fact that I can't run as fast anymore. This anckle of mine better get better soon or I don't know what I'll do. Taranis is going to need someone to help him train and I can't move fast anymore. Maybe I'll let him have a little break while my anckel heals.

Acia walked quietly, clutching the small-ish parcel close to her chest. It felt cool, even through her thick fur. Checking that she had arrived at the correct house, she walked forward timidly. Schooling her expression to one of calmness she walked up to the door, head up, shoulders straight. For a second a bold glint lit in her eye and she knocked the door as hard as her small hands could - barely raising more than a thin clunk.
She paused, one second, the glimmer faded and, hastily putting the parcel down she scarpered, leaving no note and no sign she had been there except the small parcel. She had been going to give it to Taranis. The only thing she'd forgotten until that last moment was that Taranis would not be the one to open the door.

The girl yawned as she rolled out of her bed, she had been sleeping most of the day. "PEEP!" a pearcing cry echoed though the room. Quickly the girl looked down, she had stemped on Taranis' foot.
"What are you doing right by the bed?" she pouted unhappy that he had been so close that she ahd steped on him. She gazed into his bright blood red eyes and sighed "I'll be more careful next time." The pink haired girl streached out her arms and let out another yawn.
She bent down and looked at Taranis with a smile. She was indeed sorry for steping on him, but she wasn't sure if he knew that. She rubbed her anckle a bit, it still hurt. Her gaze quickly turned, she had heard an almost silent knock upon the door. "What..." she spoke, they never had visitors. "Come on Taranis." she motioned as she stood up straight and walked out of her room.
Slowly she pushed open the door, but no one was there. "Who...What..." she started hearing a peep from below her. The girl glanced down to see the Aerandir looking at a strange object. "What is that?" She reached out her hand to pick it up, but recived a quick n** from her charge. "Taranis!" she shouted "Fine then you bring it in." quickly the girl turned upon her heal and walked back into the house...Leaving Taranis to sit out on the porch to poke and pick at the object.
"Peep!" he called as he placed his beak over the item as if it where a chew toy.

The next stage!
As beak touched metal a spark flew up. A thin keening sound pierced the air, almost a wail as the furry, round body of Taranis became tranformed. Fluffy paws became ethereal hands and the closed beak dropped it's precious cargo as it became close to the consistency of air. Taranis had changed, drastically. He was now a wisp!
((In order for Taranis to progress beyond the wisp stage, I'd like you to collect the following items and bring them to me: Taranis: 3 small gems or cut glass pieces A length of rope A long patterned piece of material A piece of leather or animal hide A large pile of beads A thin chain You may get these by buying them from minishops, from other people drawing or creating them for you, or by drawing, creating or photographing them yourself (although no more than one item should be supplied by yourself.) Taranis should stay close to his bonded object at all times and should not be able to speak much or touch things while he is in this form. -- Alyosha ))

"Muu..." Taranis mumbled as his beak disappered and the object fell to the ground. What was going on? He lifted up his hand...Wait hands?! He had hands now, and his feet where gone. He seemed to have a tuff of hair upon his head, but he was so much more...See through then normal, and blue. He turned his head to the door "Muu!" he called out as he floated into the doorway...Floated? So many things seemed new! He wanted to go further into the house, but he felt as if he could go no further.
'Muu.' the girl thought for a moment, Taranis didn't make that nose....He just peeped. "Wait..." she spoke before rushing to the door and looking down at a blue floating thing.
"Muuuuu!" it called out, waving its arms around and pointing to the item on the ground.
"T-Taranis?" she questioned, getting a nod in return. Her...Her charge had. He had changed! "What happened Taranis?!" she spoke although she knew quite well that he was growing up. She had seen other Aerandir in their wisp stages and she knew that's what had happened to her charge.
"You've...Chnaged." she smiled happily picking up the item that lay on the ground. This ment that they'd have to find some items for Taranis to progress to the next stage...For him to grow. Journal Entry 021 Taranis...He's...He's progressed to the wisp stage...At least I think that's what he is right now. A strange item arived on the front porch and he just changed...I think it was from touching it. He's so blue...And clear and floaty. He's really quite adorable as well. I've got to figure some things out, I know from taking care of Iniko that Taranis wont be able to venture far from his item thing. So many things to plan and figure out.

After the girl had figured out the items she needed to allow Taranis to progress to his next stage she quickly began writing up letters to those she belived could help. She'd however decided to send them out seperatly so she could accuratly say what she still needed.
"Time to check the mail..." The girl said anxiously, although she had just sent one letter the night before. She had not expected to get a response just yet. "Come on Taranis!" she smiled picking up his bonded item and inching towards the front door. "You've been terribly...What's the word? ...Slow I guess, since you've changed." The girl paused and thought for a moment, perhaps he was depressed? "What's wrong?"
"Muuu..." the floating Aerandir muttered and floated up next to his guardian. He wanted to touch things again, it was far to hard to cause trouble when he just went though things and could only go so far from his item.
The girl happily walked to the front door to pick up her mail...If of course she had any. "I doubt we have any mail, but it doesn't hurt to check."
"Buuu..." Taranis started as Yakobi opened the door and began to check for mail.
The pink haired girl gasped, "Taranis look!" she shouted turning to the wisp Aerandir. The girl was holding up an envelope filled with three gems. (Items from Bio)
They had his first quest items.

"Ok Taranis help me look!" the girl called out towards the wisp Aerandir who was floating behind her.
"Buuu muuu." Taranis whined, he didn't want to help look. He wanted to do something, but he couldn't even touch anything without going though it.
"Don't whine about it." she scowled looking over her shoulder at her charge. "The sooner we get all these items the sooner you'll be solid again...." she paused at least she thought that would happen. "So just help me look for something on the list."
With a huff the Aerandir floated over to his guardian and eyed the drawer she was looking though. He floated up to the list which was sitting on the top of the dresser and looked it over. "Muu!" he called out floating back down and pointing at something in the drawer. "Muuu buu!"
"What?" the girl asked looking at what her charge was pointing at. "This?" she asked holding up a long piece of material. She stood up and looked at the list "I don't know if you would call this patterned Taranis."
"Muuu!" the Aerandir shouted.
"Alright alright, we'll use it...Since you seem to like it." she sighed tossing the material onto her bad and shutting the drawer. "I guess stripes are patterns...You know I was going to use this to make an arm warmer..."

The girl let out a yawn as she walked to the front door, she was going to head out for a walk with her charge. Perhaps it would make him feel better if he got some fresh air. Her hand pressed against the door knob as she gave it a turn "Come on Taranis," she smiled "The fresh air will be good for you. As she opened up the door the girl noticed a note on the ground. "What's this?" she asked bending down and picking it up.
The letter was plain and seemingly unimportant, the - perhaps overly - cursive writing on the front reading "Yakobi and Taranis". The letter was weighty, as though it might contain something other than a letter. As you take the letter out, some of the beads scatter to the floor, and some seem to still be wedged in at the bottom of the envelope. There's lots of them in there! The Letter Hey Yakobi,
I saw your notice in the Centre. I've been rooting around for some beads myself, don't know what I'm ever going to use them all for, so I hope these ones are useful!

The girl floped over onto the couch, the unhappy wisp floating around her. "You know iI'm sure it's not that bad being able to go though things." she smiled trying to cheer uo her charge. "I think it'd be great to be able to go though walls and all that stuff. Good for scaring people." Yakobi really wished Taranis would cheer up, she hated him being upset like he was. Made her feel as if she wasn't doing a good job. "So please cheer up Taranis."
"Buuu I." the wisp Aerandir spoke, he was becoming...Somewhat understandable. He floated over the couch arm and pretended to sit upon it. Taranis was having to hover slightly above it to make it look as if he were really sitting upon it then, going though it. Quickly he folded his arms with a "Bah."
CRASH BANG BOOM! the sound echoed though the house. Startled Yakobi jumped off the couch "What was that?!" Franticly she looked about, nothing in the house had fallen and it couldn't have been Taranis...He afterall couldn't touch anything.
"Nayoooo!" a call from outside the door howled. A lime green cat scratched at the door letting out yet another howl. It snuffled and sat down awaiting someone to open the door.
The girl blinked as she stared at the door...A cat? Could it be her cat? No, there was no way he was all the way over on the island...No possible way. It must be someone elses cat. Yes.
The girl rushed to the door prying it open to look down at the cat. Attached to it's neck was a bag filled with three envelopes. The cat glanced up at her with his big yellow teary eyes. With a sniff it rubbed up against her leg. "Nayo." he mewed, purring slightly.
"Ilco!" the girl shouted, scooping up the green cat. It was her cat after all. Poor thing must have crashed into the door when flying. "Did you fly all the way here?" she asked, knowing she wouldn't get a proper answer. He was such a sad cat, always crying for no reason...Even when happy. "You know you're not a great flyer Ilco." the girl pouted, her cat could have really hurt himself.
"Kuuu...?" Taranis asked pointing at the cat.
"Oh this is Ilco, Taranis." the girl smiled holding up the cat to her Aerandir.
"Nyao nyao!" the winged cat mewed pawing at his owner then tuging on the bag tied around him.
"Oh. Right." the girl smiled droping onto the couch and unting the bag from around Ilco. The cat jumped onto the arm of the couch and curled up, giving a tiny sniffle.
Slowly she looked over the three envelopes. Each had a name written upon them. One saying Kit, one Oompa and one Chee. A grin spread across her face. Yes. They had to contain items for Taranis!
Quickly she tore at the ends opening the envelopes up and droping their contents into her lap. In her lap was a piece of animal hide, a rope and a chain...Yes the rest of the Items Taranis needed! His quest was over! She owed her friends big time for this.
 (Items from Kit, Oompa and Chee)

August 28th, 2005 Journal Entry 022 After a few days I finally headed off to the center with Taranis and...We met up with Alyosha...And...And Taranis is a child! I'm so happy. He looks so adorable...I just want to hug him all day long...Although I don't think he likes me hugging him that much.
- Yakobi ------------------------------------------------------------------- Yakobi & Taranis The pink haired girl seemed to almost have to pull the floating blue Aerandir out the door. "Taranis, come on. You're just making things harder." she grumbled, waving his bonded item in the air. "I thought you wanted to get this little stage over with." She grined as her charge floated around laughing to himself then out the door. This was a good sign. At lest he was happy...Although it was somewhat annoying to have him giving trouble already. She glanced into her bag, slung around her shoulder, making sure all the items he needed to evolve were there. "Good." she wispered to herself. "Come on, I'll race you!" the girl spoke haippy runing down the steps and onto the dirt path.The floating Aerandir, watched for a moment as his guardian ran off. He folded his arms, thinking that maybe he shouldn't follow...But a slight tug of force made him think otherwise. With a grin he floated after Yakobi, diving though her leg with a laugh. Alyosha Alyosha was standing out on the veranda, cup of tea in hand, looking out towards the village. It was a reasonably quiet day, only the usual background hubbub of noise filtering through the trees - brought by the soft breeze.
A figure seemed to be heading towards the centre. He wondered who it was, knowing that Foenix, Fae and Kiro were already there. He hopped off the wooden boards, landing lightly, set his now exmpty cup down and wandered down the path a little ways. Ahh... Yakobi. He hadn't had much of a chance to talk to her before. Smiling a little, he waved in greeting. Yakobi & Taranis Taranis looked over the black haired man not too far in the distance. Quickly with a grin plastered upon his face, he raced up to him and gave a little wave before zooming around his feet.She gave a smile and waved back before notcing Taranis had floated off and was now zooming around Alyosha's feet. She puffed up her cheeks, as she marched up to the two. Ugh. Why couldn't Taranis behave for once? "Taranis! Behave." she shouted, sounding more annoied then angry.Taranis froze as he glanced up at his guardian. The grin seemed to grow larger upon his face as he settled down, hovering right above Alyosha's foot.The girl shook her head, happy that at lest he had stoped. "Sorry about that." she blushed. Alyosha "Ahhh... It's not a problem, they always seem to like getting underfoot at that age" He grinned a little as he looked down at the slightly ruffled looking wisp. How a wisp could be ruffled he wasn't sure but Taranis was, well, ruffled looking. "Talking of which, how is he taking this form? It's not been long since he became a wisp, has it?" It could only have been a few days at most, Alyosha thought. Yakobi & Taranis "He's been...Different." she spoke looking down at her charge. "A little moody about changing at fisrt, but now he seems to have gone back to his touble making." Yakobi couldn't help laugh a bit, dispite the fact that she didn't really apov e of his touble making. The second question however, made the girl pause to think. She knew he hadn't been a wisp for too long, just a few days...But how many exactly? "I think about seven days or so." Yes she belived that sounded about right. "I got all his items about three days ago as well." Alyosha "Wow.. really? do you have them all with you?" he wondered if that was what she was here for. It would seem a reason for her to be going to the centre but... if she'd already waited 4 days...
"Is he.. ready to become a child?" he asked, slightly tentatively. Yakobi & Taranis Yakobi gave a nod and held up her bag "Yeah, that's why I was heading down to the center." She looked at Taranis wondering if he really was ready...She sure hoped so. "I've been pretty busy, so I haven't had the time until today." She paused for a moment glancing from Taranis to Alyosha. "I think he's ready.""Muuuu." Taranis spoke with a smile. He floted higher up and gave them both a thumbs up sign. Alyosha Alyosha nodded slightly, his smile widening into a grin. Another one growing up. Nearly all of them! The project could certainly be called one hell of a success.
"We could do it here" he motioned to a patch of sand which had been blown off the beach. It's smooth surface seemed as good a place as any. "Just bring all of your things out and set them down and we can begin" he instructed, giving Taranis an encouraging smile. Yakobi & Taranis "Oh!" she said excitedly. Her charge was going to grow. This was so exciting yet nerve wracking at the same time. Something after all might go wrong...But the girl pushed that thought from her mind.
Quickly she opened her bag, gently taking out the items and placing them down on the ground where Alyosha had instructed. She glanced at Taranis before standing back up, this would possibly be the last time she saw him in his wisp form. She just hoped it wasn't as starling as when he had first become a gryphon. "Alright, that's all of the items."Taranis hovered, looking over all the items laying on the ground. He looked at the two slightly wondering how all this would work. All he knew though, was that he could wait to be able to be soild again. Causing trouble would be much easier. Alyosha Alyosha looked at the items, knelt and spread them out. He considered each, pushing and prodding them into a vague circle, the hide placed in the centre. He picked up Taranis' artifact, placed it on the hide and watched as the little wisp was drawn with it.
He stood back, speedily and waited. For a moment nothing happened and he worried that he had misplaced and item. Then Taranis' form began to become more solid. It pulsed with life, the wispy blue becoming a warm white, the artifact rising and curling itself around Taranis' small head. Beads, hide, rope and chain all in a flash not there - moved around and placed elsewhere. When it was done a few beads still rolled about at Taranis' feet. Yakobi & Taranis The girl watched, eyes unblinking as Alyosha lined up the items and then nothing....Her eyes widened as Taranis became solid. Finally her jaw seemed to drop open ever so slightly, he was so...So cute! Well she had always thought he was cute, but now he was just...Cute...Er.
For a moment she seemed lost for words as she just stared at her charge. "Squee!" finally something had come out of her mouth...Just not really much of anything. Quickly she huged Taranis tightly smiled up at Alyosha. "Thanks so much!"A slightly embaressed grin was now plasered upon his face as his guardian huged him. "Tught..." he manged to muster up...Now that didn't sound exactly right, but it seemed Yakobi had gotten the point as she loosened her grip a bit. He'd have to learn how to pronounce everything now...Great.

August 29th, 2005 Journal Entry 023 Well I had to stay up with Taranis last night. I''m so tired, but maybe in a way that''s good. I did get to keep an eye on him. He''s moved into his room now that he can no longer fit into the cat bed and Ilco has gotten his bed now. He''s been looking around at the toys in the toy chest and around the room, telling me (in the best way he can) how he''d going to fix up the place a bit...More to his taste.
Anyways getting onto the point. I''ve been up all night teaching him how to talk. He seems to be grasping it quickly...Perhaps it''s an Aerandir thing or something. He still has some problems pronouncing things, but I doubt he could learn how to speak perfectly in one day. I do belive I''ll be teaching him how to talk for a few days.
Also Taranis has made his first delivery as a child. He left and returned much faster then when he used to diliver letters as a gryphon...I should start helping him train more again.

His red eyes narrowed as he stood upon the couch staring at the vash space of air infront of him. Grining ear to ear the boy gently flaped his wings, stroking them once to allow the thick black feathers to become pressed together. "Alright!" he shouted jumping up into the air. "Fly! Fly!"
THUD The Aerandir child fell to the ground with a groan. "Wuy...." he muttered standing up and rubbing his bottom. That had hurt.
"Taranis?! Are you ok?!" Yakobi shouted as she came running into the room. "I heard a thud. Are you ok?!"
The boy glanced up at her with his large blood red eyes. What was her problem? It wasn't like he was dying or anything. "I fine."
"I'm."
"Rught."
The girl paused. Why was she corecting him when he could be hurt...She should be making sure he was fine. He might just be saying things. She had to make sure her charge was alright. "Are you sure?"
"Yes mom." he pouted. Why wouldn't she just leave? He was trying to fly and he couldn't well try to if she was standing right there watching him. "Cun you go nuu?"
"Are you sure you're alright?"
"Yes."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Abosolutly sure?
"Yes!"
The girl raised a brow, she hadn't been expecting Taranis to raise his voice. Well maybe he was alright...He wasn't crying or anything, but then again it Taranis didn't seem like the type that would cry after a fall. Wait. What had he been doing anyways that caused him to fall?
"What were you doing?"
The boy backed up slightly. Great, just what he needed questions. Quickly he turned and hoped up onto the couch, making himself nice and comfy. "I wus flying."
Odd.
"You can't fly though."
"Sure I cun."
"No."
His yellow brows lowered, he could too fly! And he'd prove it if he needed to. He just needed to figure out how to fly...He hadn't been able to fly when he was a gryphon because...Well he wasn't sure, but he knew he could fly.
"I cun just wutch." Placing his hands down the Aerandir pushing himself up, so that he was standing upon the couch.
"Taranis no!" the girl shouted. The last thing she wanted was for him to fall and really hurt himself. Even when he wasn't causing trouble it seemed as if he was.
"Buu." the boy whined, making a very unhappy face.
"But."
"That's whut I saud. Buu."
"...Right." She'd have to help him with his speach a little later.
"Nyao!"
"Ilco! Not now!"
"Nyao! Nyao nyao!"
"Ugh!"
The girl quickly turned and stormed over to the green swirled cat, scooping him up into her arms. With a tiny snuffle the cat began to purr slightly, closing his eyes.
"Anyways Taranis you can't fly." She watched as her charge opened his mouth, oepning hers quickly before he had a chance to speak. "You're part rockhopper penguin. Penguins can't fly."
"I buu thuy cun." The boy said determined to fly. Nothing Yakobi said could tell him otherwise. Penguins could fly...At lest he thought so.
"Penguins are flightless birds..." she spoke sitting down beside him, Ilco still purring in her arms. "Very good swimmers though...As are polar bears." She hoped telling him that he could swim quite well would get him to stop the whole flight idea.
"Buu...." he whined, floping backwarsd onto a pillow. "Wuy cun't I fly...I cun..."
The girl stroked her hand though the boy's back and yellow hair, hoping to calm him. "So you can't fly, that's no big deal. You're a lot better at other things." She smiled as she began to hum a soothing melody. "Again I'll tell you that you're a really good swimmer. Excelent perhaps."
"Excul...T?" Taranis stammered, finding it hard to pronounce the word. He knew what it ment in a way. "Relly?"
"Yup. Excelent."

August 30th, 2005 Yakobi & Taranis "Cume on!" Taranis shouted as he ran down to the center. He sure was fast for one so young, or maybe it was just the fact that Yakobi wasn't running. His blood red eyes seemed wider then normal, he was going to explore the center today. Yes. And then maybe the rest of the island later on."Taranis slow down!" the girl called out as she quickened her pace. Why he wanted to head to the center was beond her, but he wanted to and she couldn't just let him go alone. She smiled as they drew closer to the center. She sighed as Taranis pushed his way though the doors and ran off, why couldn't he wait for her. Fae & Pueblo As she stood there, her attention span was cut short when something dashed inside. Her ears were the first to pick up the new couple, head following suit so that her two senses could connect the dots. It was another Aerandir like her! Except, if she remembered correctly, this one was male. Something about him too seemed familiare, but it wasn't as strong as the feeling between her and Nehanda.
The owner she knew as a gryphon. How did she know? By her bright pink hair! She waved at them in greeting, but she wasn't just about to run up to them. He could suddenly...make a loud noise in her ear, or some other dauntful action. His crown of gold hair and blood red eyes didn't make her feel anymore comfortable either- he looked very ominous.
Taking a break in their conversation, Fae turned to see who had entered the Centre. Her mind picking up the bright pink hair right away, her hand was quick to whiplash the air into a harsh wave. "Hi, Yakobi!" she greeted quite excitedly. Was that her Aerandir boy who had just zoomed past her? Yakobi & Taranis Yakobi smiled as she walked into the center, waving back at Fae. She hadn't seen her for a while. Her orange eyes narrowed as she watched her charge run about the room. "Taranis will you calm down?!" she called out hoping he'd stand still for a while. Keeping an eye on Taranis she walked over to Fae "Hey."Taranis began to slow down as he noticed the others. When did they get there? He gave his head a shake, thinking that he probably just didn't notce them on his entrance. The boy decided he'd stop and go over and see the others...Who he could have sworn he knew. CRASH as the boy skidded to a stop he hadn't factored in the fact of a wall. Smaking right into it and falling over. He shut his eyes and gave his nose a rub. That wasn't what he expected to happen. His ears flicked as he heard a sigh from behind him then the call of his name. His grin shrunk slightly as he stood up and turned around to face his guardian. "Heh heh." Fae & Pueblo Pueblo would have warned him of the wall if he hadn't reached it so...quickly. Ears springing on their ends, she gasped a little and ran over to his side. Leaning over with wide emerald eyes and her hands behind her back, she stared down at him worringly. "Are yow okay?" she whispered. Then, she looked to Nehanda for help.
!! Fae jumped around before she could even ask Yakobi how she was. Instead she asked, "That's Taranis? Is he okay?! Putting aside the notations of the cute little polar bear, she waited to make sure he was okay. Smiling hald to herself, however, how Taranis even ended up skidding into the wall. Pueblo's already got boys looking at her, she chuckled mentally. She remembered Pueblo's first slippery encounter with the floors when she was still a griff. Yakobi & Taranis The pink haired girl shook her head as she looked at her charge. Typical of Taranis to do something like that. He'd been far more...Crazy since he changed...Mainly she blamed the fact that he could now talk. "Yup that's him." she smiled giving a nod. "He should be fine. He's been a bit...Crazy since he changed."Taranis looked up at Pueblo, yes she definatly seemed farmiliar. "I'm fune." he said blushing slightly. The fact of what the others might be thinking had finally sunk in and well, crashing into the wall was kind of embarassing. "I knuw the wull was there all alonge." the child gave a nod and folded his arms. Fae & Pueblo "Then why'd hurt you to it?" the innocent girl blinked. This guy really was mental. However accepting, since that was the way Fae taught her to be, she gave her mind the chance to remember him as his name rang in her ears. "Yew Tar-a**s?" She carefully pronounced and suddenly the glowing jar came to mind. Had he completely came out of the jar as a child? She wouldn't have known since she didn't know him in his gryphon stage too well. Yakobi & Taranis "Wull...Uhhhh...." Taranis stammered as he tried to think of a good excuse. Nothing. He blinked as Pueblo said his name, so he did know her! "Yuah yeah. I'm Taranis." he smiled looking as proud as can be. Something suddenly dawned on him...If he knew her why didn't he remember her? "Uhhhh..." he started blinking as he looked at her. "Whu are you?" Fae & Pueblo Pueblo's ears slightly drooped. How come he didn't know her? The logic wasn't making sense. If she knew him, how could he not know her? Tugging on her one pigtail thoughtfully, she looked at the paint brush in her hand and suddenly held it out at him. "Wats yewr art-n-fact?" For some reason, she was fond of seeing everyone's artifacts.
Fae qwarked a brow. "So...I take it he's just entered his child stage? Pueblo's been around for a few months now," she smiled. "She's a painter," she added proudly, but not overly so. Yakobi & Taranis Taranis stared at her for a moment. Artnfact? What was one of those? He looked down at the painbrush, tilting his head slightly, a...Brush thing? Was that what an artnfact was? "Whuts an autn...fact?" he asked hoping he didn't sound too stupid not knowing what one was and all...Also if that was an artnfact how come he didn't have one as well? There was so many things he needed to learn.Yakobi gave a nod. "Yeah just a few days ago." The girl smiled, she had been so excited when he had changed. "Taranis is a messenger." Fae & Pueblo The even more confused Aerandir girl stared at him when trying to come up with an answer. When unexperienced volcabulary failed her, she merely mumbled, "Ev-wee-won has won." She just couldn't explain it. Her tail twitched as she continued surveying him before she suddenly reacted in an unexpected manner. "O well, Fae has tu take mi home now...bye!" she quickly fled behind Fae after flashing him a nervous smile.
Fae was grinning for Yakobi. "For awhile, I almost thought that that was what Pueblo was going to be--Oh, she was cut short when Pueblo suddenly took her hand and tugged on it.
"I'm tyrud," she fibbed and tugged gently on her guardian's hand.
Patting Pueblo on the head, she noded and hadn't suspected the lie in such a young Aerandir. "Well it was so nice seeing you and Taranis again. It looks like they got to know each other a little better, too," she smiled. "Good luck in your parenthooding. Abby's tired, so we should get going. But we'll see you around!" she waved goodbye and walked the anxious-to-get-out-of-here-girl home.

His eyes widened as a streak of green darted around. "Yay!" Taranis shouted as Ilco lept up onto his head. The green swirled cat purred, snuffling before closing his eyes. "Ill funny." The boy quickly walked into the kitchen, the cat still laying ontop of his head. "Nuw...Whare is the suss." Standing upon his toes his blood red eyes glanced over the counter top, hands feeling around for anything. Yakobi had left him for a moment and he was getting kind of hungry. He knew she kept sushi around the kitchen...Somewhere.
"Ill go fund it." he spoke, giving the cat a poke. Ilco yanwed as he flapped his wings, now hovering above Taranis' head.
"Nyao?" he mewed looking around the kitchen. What was he suposed to do now? As quick as ever he fluttered up onto the counter, streaching out as his feet touched the surface. "Nyao nyao!" he said happily as he glanced around at the cupboards on the otherside of the kitchen. Maybe that's where the...Whatever it was, was.
With a sad look the cat lept up into the air. Floating as if he were walking upon an invisible shelf. "Nyao?" he spoke looking down at Taranis. Getting a nod from the boy, the green cat pushed his head at a cupboard door.
After a few tries Ilco finally got the cupboard open. He gave a swish of his tail and knocked down a box to the Aerandir child below. Sniffling once more the cat flew down to the counter and curled up. He wanted to sleep.
"Oooooooooooooooooo." Taranis grined as he walked over the the box Ilco had knocked down. He quickly grabed hold of the cardboard, ripping the box open to find a bunch of crackers inside. Not sushi, but this would do.
