Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shavira grabbed the few beads that had been left in the box and held them out to Wy. "Wha' color does Wy want?" She grinned. "Theresss...gween, blu, whii'e, pur'pl...an...an...rred." She crinkled her nose. "No more orrang.e. Heehee!" Suddenly, the snakes who had been busy watching Wy remembered him, and all reached out at once to say hello. Shavira glanced down and laughed. "Chloris and friends wanna say hi hi to Wy Wy! Wy this Chloris. Others dun have namies yet." She gestured to one of the snakes coming from her front.

Kii nodded as Tori spoke, still sort of attempting to hide her hair beneath her hands. "Shavi learns quickly too. It's surprising." She bent down to get a teabag from a drawer. Yes, she needed plenty of tea and even had a drawer dedicated to her only chance at survival for early work hours. "They ARE good friends...Shavira often asked when she'd see her Wy Wy again." She grinned up at Tori as she straightened out.

Picking out the two white beads from the pile and replacing the rest in their box, Shavira reached over to Wy and began attaching the first bead to a strand of his hair. She was slow, but she rather not hurt her friend. Finishing the first one, she took a step back to admire her work. She grinned and held out the other bead. "Wy want other one too? Wy wanna see what Shavi did first?"

Without waiting for an answer, the little snake girl reached back into her toy chest and pulled out a small hand mirror. "Wy see! Wy see! Wy like?" After placing the mirror carefully in Wycliff's hand, Shavira threw her arms around his neck and leaned close to look in the mirror too. "White good for Wy!" She told her friend, matter-of-factly.

KiiMeLwi almost missed dropping the teabag into the teapot, surprised at Tori's imitation. First she just blinked at him, a hilarious look plastered onto her face. Then...she snorted, slapped a hand over her mouth and nose and yelped in embarassment. Barely a moment had passed before she started cracking up...and slipped down, down, down and down towards the floor, unable to stay standing up.

Calming down took much effort, but finally, sitting on the floor, she looked up at the tall man. "Da whooooollleeee wiiiiiidddeeee wworoldd?" She cracked up again and patted Tori's foot humorously. "Too cute, too cute. Illegally cute. Toddlers should be illegal. But then I'd be running from jail. Oh dear." She scrambled back up. "I'm so happy that they're such good friends!" She patted Tori's sholder this time and, still chuckling to herself, pulled out a couple of mugs. "I hope you don't mind there's a dancing monkey on your cup."

Shavira squealed and wriggled, almost surprised at being hugged back. "Wy like! YAY! Shavi VERY good for Wy. Wy good for Shavi!" Shavira reached up to poke Wycliff's nose with a short finger. "Wy!...is it!" She slid through his hug and laughed hysterically as she ran away, hiding behind the toy chest, as if it would protect her completely. A couple of the snakes poked their heads above the chest to stare at Wy and wondered what the heck was going on.

KiiMeLwi handed her friend the monkey-mug, still grinning. "It couldn't have been more adorable." She referred to his imitation. "I haven't laughed like that in a while. You made me snort! How unladylike!" She swatted his arm lightly before reaching for a mug of her own. "Trust me, that monkey won't mind at all. The monkey turns blue when you put something hot in the mug! ..Oh great...I get the one with the cows and the ufo's on it."

Sticking out her tongue in distaste of the pattern on just about every single one of her teacups and coffemugs, Kii picked up the screaming teapot. Careful not to spill anything on Tori, she poured for him and then herself. The steam rose up from the mugs, and Kii put the pot in her small sink. "Careful..." She smirked sarcastically. "They might be hot."

The snakes snapped their heads back down behind the toychest as Wycliff climbed into it. Shavira squealed, tried to back up, and instead tripped on a toy and tumbled into the chest with her friend. She practically landed in head first, her feet sticking out of the side as well as some very confused snakes. "EEE! Noooo!...ah!" She stopped her giggling protesting and wriggled her legs in the chest with her. "Heeey! Mama! MAMA!" She started to dig in the box, sending toys every which way, a stuffed snake landing on Wycliff's lap and blocks soaring to clunck against KiiMeLwi's foot.

KiiMeLwi had just opened her mouth to say something to Tori when the blocks hit her. She yelped and quickly put her own tea down before she flung IT somewhere. "I'm..I'm sure my cows love me..." Her ears were flapping wildly, exposing the amount of effort the green haired guardian was putting into NOT screeching in pain. "Shavi...*flap* be...a bit...*flap* more careful with those, please...*flap flap* What *flap* is it?" She gave Tori a look of apology before hobbling over to her Mishap.

"Uh oh! Shavi sorry..." Shavira was now sitting upright in the chest, right next to Wycliff, and holding a small wrapped box, a bit crumpled since the munchkins had crawled over it and all. "Look! Look what Shavi remembered!" She turned her attention back to Wycliff. "Shavi got gift gift for Shavi bestest friend Wy! Wy gift! Wy gift!" She informed him, holding it out proudly.

KiiMeLwi grinned at Tori and patted his arms assuringly, standing up straight again. "I'm alright. Just...surprised me is all. I must say those blocks are vicious! They attacked out of nowhere. Owies." She grinned and her ears ceased their flappage. If Kii could joke, Kii was quite alright. "Oh that's right, Shavi! We did get a gift for little Wycliff! It's not anything big, but Shavira loved it when she saw it. We just HAD to get it for him. I hope it isn't too...er..." She scratched her head, searching for a word. "Oh...nevermind. I have no idea what I'm saying anymore."

Shavira squealed in glee as Wycliff took the gift. "Open! Open!" She took the end of a ribbon and placed it gently into Wy's hand, obviously eager for the rhino Mishap to discover his gift. "Shavi even helped WRAP it!" She pointed to the bottom of the gift, where tape covered ithe entire surface.

Shavira DID almost go crazy. She shifted around and squealed madly, flapping her arms around and about, very very excited. The snakes were weaving around quickly, desperately dodging her flailing arms. She felt she would pop! "WYYYYYY! Wy teaaaaasing! Nooo!" She made as if to grab the box from his hands to do it for him, but changing her mind, she grabbed onto one of her stuffed animals instead. "No fair! Meanie!" She giggled, teasing and she continued to watching him, eyes wide.

KiiMeLwi nodded at her friend, leaning on him a bit to rub her foot. "She insisted she help me wrap it." She cracked on of her toes, winced and gave up on her foot. It wasnt that hurt anyway. "Oh, he did, did he?" She flashed Wycliff a bright smile. "Thats so sweet!" turning back...."Yeah, looks like they're busy with that one!"

((You know the gift is in the box, right? XDDD Just clickie it! (OMIGEE TORIS SHIRTLESS!) <3))

"Shavira made me buy wrapping supplies. She wouldn't have it any other way." Seeing Tori look at her foot, she laughed and patted his arm reassuringly. Then, she hopped on one foot, the on that had been hurting, to prove herself. Winking, she replaced her feet. "Aww...they're all learning so fast...It was just yesterday that I was teaching Shavira the alphabet. She's good at it too. I'm going to have to work harder on teaching her how to spell. We were gonna work on that sometime soon, so she could get working on her journal."

Shavira's arms continued to flail, she was really...really...really bursting with excitement, and Wy wasn't helping! "No FAIR!" Shavi laughed back, resisting the strong, strong urge to just rip his gift open for him. "WyyYYYyyyYY! HURRY!"
