"From Adian? Naw" Reiha said as she leaned in closer to look at the books. "he's harmless. Stupid but harmless" she said with a carelessness that should never belong to one so young. How she came across it was her forgotten memory's secrets.
"Don't leave yet, we just started talking" Adian implored, grining the cutest grin he could. He wasn't officaly flirting because he wasn't looking for a date but he liked to just flirt with those that he could.

Honestly, Kasch didn't quite understand the idea of what was stupid about Adian. He was a child and the whole idea of dating hadn't been introduced to him yet. So he just shrugged and nodded his head. "Reiha, what's the difference between a crow and a blackbird?" There weren't too many difference save the beak color that he could see. He could tell them apart though he really wasn't sure why. Naturally, his instincts just led him to pick out the blackbird. "I can tell them apart but I don't know why," he added.
"I-erm, well I suppose we can stay a little longer." The tahnee was uncomfortable at the idea. She felt nauseous and flushed though it wasn't obvious. Unlike Adian, she wasn't crazy to trip over anyone that was pretty.
In fact, she really didn't like romance from what she knew of it. Novels with romance often ended up toss onto the floor. Men were fine and all but they seemed to have a habit of lying to get what they want, which didn't sit well with her. She despised being lied to in any form or fashion. Unless she chose not to ask, she expected an honest answer.
She preferred the solace of winter, it was beautiful and cold. It was a comfort, like a baby blanket for a child. Giving a nod of her head, she stopped in her thoughts. Had he said something?

"I'm sure big differences are in size, proably in feather shapes and coloring of feathers" Reiha slowly. "I think blackbirds are smaller and they make different noise" She wasn't completely sure though, "I'd look it" she admited, "I don't know if I'm completely right" Reiha wasn't scared of admiting she didn't know. Not knowing was fine, it was not learning that made you stupid. Reiha had no paitence for the stupid.
Adian grined at her. He didn't trip over anyone was pretty, he smoothly glided. Adian knew the games men and women played and he enjoyed playing them. It was all for fun and why not have fun in life? God knows his dating life died when he got Reiha. No problem, well big problems with all the emtional crap Reiha brings to the table.
"Well at least they're getting along" the red haired man pointed out. "That boy managed to find Reiha's two biggest intrests mighty fast, studing and birds. Now if you had her in a tree and Korbin got to attack me I think she be in heaven"

"Reiha likes when her bird attacks you?" Xiu Xue asked. She glanced over at the two toddlers. She hoped Reiha wouldn't have him attack Kasch. She really didn't like the idea of him being attacked. She gave a sigh, wondering if she should let Kasch be friends with the girl. "She won't have it attack Kasch, will she?"
Browsing through the pages, the boy found a chapter that explained blackbirds and crows, there was even a part about ravens. "Here we go, Reiha!" he grinned. "Ravens are one-third larger than crows, have somewhat heavier bills, more fan-shaped tails, and sometimes sport a ruff of feathers at the throat." He moved down to the blackbird section and scrunched his brow, ""Blackbirds are those class...class-fied in the subfamily Ic...ic-ter-nae?" he stumbled over the words heaving a sigh of relief.

Reiha leaned over his shoulder to read as he read out loud. She smiled and nodded, she was pretty sure it was small changes like that. Stuff that no normal person noticed but was oh so obvious to birds. She smiled and reached up to stroke Korbin. "That's really cool" she mentioned, looking at the book. "I love learning new things, don't you?"
Adian shook his head, "Oh no, see, she likes him" she pointed to the two kids, Reiha leaning so close. "She doesn't get close to anyone unless she has too if she doesn't like them. Korbin only attacks those who upset or harm Reiha. I more upset then harm" he said with a 'what can I say?' sort of grin.

"I do like learning," he admitted nodding his head. He wasn't sure that it was fun but he liked learning so far. His stomach burbled and his wings fluttered in effect. "I think it's almost time to eat," he laughed.
"Oh, that's good then," she replied in relief. Still, she didn't really like the Korbin would attack people. What if Kasch said something wrong? She knew she shouldn't fret but her motherly instincts, though new, began to flare up. "We'll have to go soon, it's almost time for lunch."

Adian glanced at her and then gave a more calming smile. "They, look, Reiha is a good person and she wouldn't let Korbin hurt Kasch unless he did something really bad, which I doubt. Your son will be okay" Adian promised, reaching voer to rest a friendly hand on her shoulder. "Trust me"
She liked to know lots of things. More she liked learning them. It was more then just knowing she had fun in figuring stuff out. She liked that feeling of acoplishment she got figuring soething hard out. Made her feel smart. "Are you going to go?" she asked him.

Xiu Xue gave a relunctant nod. He hopefully knew what he was talking about. She looked over at the pair before turning her attention back to Adian. "My brother, but thank you," she replied letting his hand remain on her shoulder. She could use the slight comfort at the moment.
"Not until my sister says so. She doesn't like when I wander off too far. Something about not liking Durem soot?" he tilted his head and shrugged. He didn't know what that meant but he didn't mind staying close to his sister. He found sometimes she would lift him to sit on her shoulders and it was much easier to see. Once in awhile he would flutter above her but she didn't like that much.

But you give someone an inch they take a mile. Adian grined his flirtious grin again, "I should of geussed, you seem to young to be a mother" he said, leaning closer, "But then again, I got a kid from a peice of paper so I geuss anyone could get a kid here in Gaia" Adian shrugged and glanced to his kid.
"Adian got all ticked last time I went off by myself" Reiha muttered, folding his arms. "He grounded me. I dont even get why. Not like I was hurt or nuthin'" she was still ad about getting grounded but at least she was able to get out again. "Now I have to go everywhere with him."

"Adam said he got Kasch from a ticket, I don't know if he was telling the truth though." She shook her head, still skeptical. She had meant to go check out the place but hadn't since gotten around to it.
Kasch nodded his head, "It's not good to go off by yourself, you could get hurt. I'd be sad if you got hurt." He frowned looking at her, almost as if he was asking her to be careful.

Adian smiled and then glanced at Kasch. "He probaly did. I know one other Passenger. At least that's what the girl called him" Adian explained, "You see the woman I met, she works as where these kids are droped off. She has one as well. And well she called them Passengers and they arive by train. I got Reiha off of a tran and so did the woman Hikari."
Reiha was quiet for a moment as he did that. She wasn't use to people caring about her. She watched him and saw that he meant what he said. Didn't Adian say soething like that? She frowned and looked away, "Okay" she said softly, 'I wont go off alone anymore...after all I would hate to make a friend sad"

"Passenger?" she supposed it was a fitting term. If Kasch had come on a train like Adam said, then technically he was a passenger. "So only children arrive on this train?" Her ears twitched, curious as to where this train came from. She couldn't help wondering if that meant Kasch had parents somewhere, looking for him. She'd have to visit this place soon.
Kasch smiled, geniune happiness spilling out. "That's good. Thank you Reiha," he looked up to Korbin offering the bird a smile as well. He was sure the three of them could be good friends, at least he hoped so. He didn't blame the bird was being wary but he was a little sad that Korbin didn't like him. "One day Korbin will like me, too. And all three of us can be friends," he stated.

((Sorry for disapearing on you. I went into an anti-breedables funk for a while that went into an anti-gaia funk. I'm over it now))
Adian shrugged at the question, "I don't really know. I mean Korbin isn't much of a child but yeah I think only kids arive. Kids and sometimes I geuss people attached to kids. Like Korbin is attached to Reiha. I don't know why they're alone though. I've been trying to find Reiha's parents but no luck in it. No one seems to know of a LeRoy"
Reiha smiled and moved up to hold Korbin, "Don't mind Korbin, he just likes to be all stouborn about liking people. He dosen't want me hurt is all" she explained, "I'm sure he'll like you 'cause you're really nice and you're not afraid of them like my other friend was." Reiha was smiling too, she liked the idea of having friends who cared for her.

"I don't think you will. I mean, if her parents were alive or wanted her surely there would be something on the news or in the papers. I certainly wouldn't just let my child disappear if I had one." It was perplexing that these children arrived on a train alone and no one knew of their parents or where they came from. Of course, stranger things had happened in Gaia but this was just so sad.
Xiu Xue's attention wandered to the two children. She was quite overwhelmed with the sudden urge to just smother them in hugs. Worry was close behind though, wondering just how Kasch could grow up to be a happy child without feeling abandoned.
His sister's concerns were no where near close to what Kasch was thinking about though. "Don't worry Korbin. I won't hurt Reiha." He smiled hoping the bird understood he was being honest. He would think of something to make Korbin see he was a friend.

Adian looked over at the kids. Reiha mostly, his hands in his pocket as he thought about what she said. He glanced at her and then to Reiha again. "That's the part that worries me" he admited, "Something...bad happened to her. I know it has" he muttmered, "A girl her age doesn't become as hateful over nothing. It's another reason I want to find her parents. I want to know what the hell they did to her"
Adian could be called alot of things: Playboy, stupid, jerk, lazy, incosiderate and selfish. And who ever called him that would more likely then not get a laugh and a agreement. But Adian was a good soul determained to enjoy this one shot of life that he had. And just because of that didn't mean he didn't care about other people. He cared about his family.
Luckily Reiha was having alot less deep thoughts as she gave a small smile and stroked Korbin, glancing at Kasch's wings. They still intrested her but she was glad that Kasch liked Korbin as Korbin was her closest ticket to the sky. She wanted despertly to know how to fly. Sadly she didn't have wings like Kasch, though she wanted some.
Korbin was glaring at Kasch though. Reiha was his only friend. He considered that winged boy's last statment nothing more then an out and out lie. Everyone was out to hurt Reiha in Korbin's mind but Reiha also needed friends so he'd keep his trap close and let the girl make her friends. And when they hurt her he would claw their eyes out happily.
Korbin was a such a loving animal.
