"....Snickerdoodles?" He blinked back at the canine tale, before he turned back and moved to head into the kitchen, pausing as he caught a sight of Chieko stealing a quick kiss from Lapis, before she returned to piling cookies flat on the counter. There were all sorts of baked goods on plates on the large table off to the side.

"Uh huh, you know, sugar cookies with cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on top. They're really good," Blue explained. He peeked into the kitchen.
Lapis was helping Chieko transfer cookies from cooling racks to plates, and he turned to catch sight of the two children. "Are you behaving?" he asked Blue amiably.
Blue nodded. "I made a painting."

Chieko blinked back, having been unaware of the kids. She offered them a smile "Oh, a painting? Once you're done, we can hang it up in the gallery, if you like, or you can take it home. Are you boys hungry?" She asked
Victor nodded "Yes ma'am, May we please have a cookie each, and a glass of milk?" He seemed very polite for a tween.

"Can I take it home, please? And I would like a cookie and a glass of milk, too, Ms. Chieko, please," Blue said.

Chieko smiled more ".....You can just call me Chieko. You make me feel old, with all this miss and ma'am." She giggled a little, and got them each a glass of milk, and a few different cookies to munch on, sadly, no snickerdoodles.
Victor smiled, and turned to look at Blue "....So.... would you like to go see the rabbits?" He asked, before taking a bite out of one of his cookies

"Dad says it's polite to say Ms to my friends' moms," Blue answered shyly. "Thank you for the cookie." He took the glass and the cookie and started eating.
"Okay," he answered after he'd swallowed. "That would be neat."

".....So polite." She sighed, happily, before she turned back to continue to bake.
Victor nodded, and headed outside, and around the back, through a gate. Instantly, there could be seen groups of rabbits everywhere over the huge yard, munching on various things, relaxing, looking content.

Blue put his empty glass down on the counter and followed Victor out, still munching on his cookie. Outside, he looked around, blinking - rabbits everywhere! "Are they all your family's?" he asked.

"Well, in a way, I suppose... Chieko raises them and sells them.... Though business has been slow." He smiled at Blue, and bit into an oatmeal and chocolate chip cookie, chewing slowly, before swallowing. "....There sure are a lot, hmmm?"

"There are. It's like the dragons." Blue started out into the yard curiously. " ... Are they going to want my cookie if I go out there?"

"What kind is it? It's not the strawberry jam cookie, is it?" He asked, blinking as he peered at the cookie

"Yeah it is. How come? Is that bad?" Blue held the cookie out, blinking at it.

As he held the cookie out, a great swoop of feathers came down, flapping madly as the cookie was yanked from his hand.
Victor let out a yelp, and flailed a little bit, before he looked back over a tree next to them, where a winged rabbit held the cookie tucked tightly between it's front paws, nibbling at the cookie delicately

Blue yelped with surprise and jumped back, the fur along his spine puffing up under his clothing. After a moment he realized that the bunny had only wanted the cookie, though, and his ears flattened sheepishly. "It surprised me ... "

"They tend to do that when strawberries are involved..." He said, before he offered Blue another cookie, to replace the stolen one "....Blue?" His voice was quiet, a little more then usual
