Quote:
TOREYxANNE: Sara Two-moons clutched Too-ya-la-kakt's wand close to her body as she hurried down the empty street, dodging rain. She moved with purpose today, a knot of nervousness and excitement dancing deep within her belly. She had awoken that morning to an odd sound, that had quickly become joyous: a light coo, like that of a baby.
At first the woman had assumed that she was going off the deep end. No one had prepared her for Too-ya's latest development! For some time she had noticed that his misted form seemed to be growing larger, and more substantial, day by day -- but until this morning, she hadn't been certain of it.
And now she was in a rush to the headquarters, just to verify what she already knew. The journey was quick, as her heart was light. Soon she had stepped through the doors, nearly rushing in...
ladyumbra666: (should the previosu rp have taken place so they know eahc other or not?)
TOREYxANNE: yes, we'll assume we had a nice lunch together
ladyumbra666: Kishi had been chasing Kit around near the portal when it activated and a slighty damp smelling women entered the headquarters. Looking up Kishi grinned, she recognised this woman, while her name and the occasion of their meeting alluded her at the moment she knew that this person was familiar in some fashion.
"Hi , I know you." She stated. All thoughts of chasing kit were put out of her mind when there was people to talk to. People who if she remembered right had another like her.
TOREYxANNE: Sara nearly tripped over the small child. The girl had a sense of familiarity about her, and it took the woman a few seconds to realize who the girl was. The features were unmistakable... but she had grown! Recognition flooded the woman, and she smiled pleasantly, recalling her first meeting.
"Hello there, Kishi..." Sara replied, ducking down to the girl's level. "I remember you, too. And I've brought Too-ya-la-kekt... I wonder if you remember him as well?"
There was a soft laugh in Sara's head, and it took the woman a moment to realize that was the only place the laugh was. She chuckled herself, and held the wand forward, motioning with her head toward the blue ghost.
ladyumbra666: For remembering who she was Sarah received a sweet smile from Kishi. her attention however was quickly diverted to her blue friend who had grown " Too ya is bigger now too. Almost a baby and then we can play" Kishi had played with baby ghosts before but most of them seemed reluctant to do much more than float around.
Malen who'd been in the gardens caught the tail end of Kishi's sentence walked down the hall untill he could see the small group " Hello there Sarah long time no see" He welcomed the fellow guardian " I see you've got to baby ghost stage, do you feel crazy yet?"
TOREYxANNE: Sara glance upward, grinning slightly at the mention of the word crazy. "I feel absolutely looney..." she laughed. "Too-ya-la-kekt has been babbling nonstop inside my head all day."
She paused for a moment, and then added hurriedly. "PLEASE tell me that is normal?" The woman trusted that it was, and was growing to be more at-ease with her position as a guardian, and the strange circumstances around it. Some part of her still worried, however.
Too-ya stretched forward, the blue ghost drifting into Kishi's face, as if to look her right in the eyes. Inside Sara's mind, he laughed, and made a strange gibbering sound.
ladyumbra666: Malen nodded and laughed " It's the best and worst part of raising these kids, you're the most connected to them you will ever be but at the same time you're the only one who can hear them." It wasn't easy to have a babyghost but it was the time when you bonded most with your child.
Kishi encouraged by TooYa's willingess to get close to her stuck her tounge out at him and blew a raspberry just to see what he'd do.
Malen seeing this rolled his eyes " Television is evil and teaches my children bad things."
TOREYxANNE: Sara laughed at the unexpected gesture from the girl, and at the following sound that echoed inside her head -- like Too-ya was blowing a raspberry, but many times over, one after another after another. She laughed harder. It absolutely tickled her...
She realized that she must look like an idiot, but somehow she couldn't control herself. "Television... HAhaha... will do... haha... do.. ha.. tha-hahahaha!" She fell down onto her butt, clutching her belly as she laughed. The more she thought about how she must look, the harder she started laughing.
ladyumbra666: Malen just shook his head only able to the begin imagining what was going on in Sarah's mind. He was sure Too-ya probably had an interesting response to Kishi's gesture. " You ok down there?" he asked.
Kishi was amused by this and walked over to Sarah pausing alogn the way to retrive her wand , she cautiously poked the laughing woman wondering if the fit was contagious.
TOREYxANNE: Sara tried to quell the outburst of laughter, but was fighting a losing battle. When the girl poked her experimentally, she exploded in another burst, tears forming at her eyes. Her ribs were hurting... she wasn't sure if she loved or hated having a spell like this, but it certainly was exhausting!
Even Too-ya seemed to look on as the woman laughed. He floated forward, perhaps mimicking Kishi, and nudged Sara with the top of his head.
She looked up helplessly to Malen, but the patient look on his face just made her laugh harder. It was some time before she started to calm down... it felt good to get it all out - her emotions must have been pent up for a while now.
ladyumbra666: Once Sarah was calm again Malen offerd her a hand to help her up " I apoligise for that, Kishi can be rather exuberant at times." He doubted Kishi was wholly responsible for the outburst but she'd been the catalyst to be sure.
Kishi who didn't understand how a single raspberry has been that funny just shrugged before pokign at Too- Ya with her wand " Come here" she ordered, having decided he was a much more sensible playmate than his guardian.
TOREYxANNE: Too-ya, having no real form, didn't seem to mind being poked with the wand, and instead seemed intruigued with the attention. He floated after Kishi, babbling slowly in Sara's head.
Sara accepted the help up, taking Malen's hand to boost herself from the floor. She stood, brushing off her hind end, and watched the two young ones together.
ladyumbra666: Malen smiled " Kishi has a fondness for the non corporeal of her breathren for some reason. possible becuase they can rarely retaliate if she annoys them." He looked at Sara for a moment " Would you like some tea?" he offered.
Kishi prodded the blue ghost a final time" You're it it's your turn to tag me" she announced racing about and weaving in and out of the adults, aware that he could only travel so far away from his wand.
TOREYxANNE: Sara smiled softly. "Tea would be lovely... perhaps it would calm my nerves... I certainly don't mind this new devlopment, but it has been an adjustment..."
The blue ghost didn't seem to understand the word tag, but floated along after Kishi, recognizing play when he saw it. Sara watched the girl run, and felt a soft spot in her heart that yearned to see Too-ya do the same. "She certainly is energetic..."
ladyumbra666: " Likes an energizer battery in toddler form" Malen replied walking around the counter and into the kitchen, he was forever thankfull for the set up of the headqueaters, it was so open that he could see all the lobby from anywhere. He grabbed the kettle and filled it with water then put it on the stove, it was slower to boil water that way but he felt it tasted better. " Any particular type you like?"
Kishi wondering how agile her large puffy friend was turned unsteadily on her heel trying to double back. Unfortunately she herself wasn't quite that agile and she tumbled a short way to the floor.
TOREYxANNE: "Earl gray..." Sara said, naming the only type of tea she knew. As a child, her Grandfather had made her herbal tinctures that tasted horrible, but she doubted that Malen had any "Pain Tea" or "Fever Tea".
As he moved about the kitchen, she continued to watch Kishi and Too-ya. When the girl tripped, Sara jumped herself, and realized that it would be doubly as frightening to see Too-ya fall one day. Her face looked stunned. It hit her hard that she was going to be a mother... that she perhaps already was. She smiled a bit, feeling frightened and anxious, as well as pleased.
ladyumbra666: Malen nodded " Hurrah for someone who actually knows different tea's I swear I ask people that questions and they look at me as if wondering what other types of tea are drunk other than the typical orange pekoe or the occasional green." Malen was no tea expert but he could name atleast half a dozens different types and occasions on why you'd choose them over another.
He watched Sara and understanding her thoughts smiled reasurringly at her " Don't worry even normal children are made of tough stuff, these kids are that much stronger , I'm sure whatever scrapes Too-ya gets into he can recover from.
TOREYxANNE: Sara blushed a bit, at the tea-praise, knowing she was undeserving, but didn't mention that for now. Malen was so hospitable and understanding, that she didn't want to dissapoint him.
"I'm so anxious to see him..." she said, stopping when she realized what she had said. "I mean... I see him now, but... I can't wait to touch him, I suppose."
The ghost drifted over to Kishi, seeming concerned. Too-ya poked at her experimentally, making a soft noise in Sara's head. "She certainly is growing fast..."
ladyumbra666: " I know how you feel, I used to sing to Kishi as a wand waitng patiently for her to be a baby I could truly hold and care for. It's not easy to wait but it's better than being pregnant for 9 months or so my female friends say." Malen really had no desire to experience pregnency and was quite glad the process of getting Kishi has been painless.
Kishi shivered at the strange feeling she got when Too- ya touched her . She streatched her wings out and blew air at him " you're funny Too-ya."
TOREYxANNE: Too-ya-la-kekt rippled like water as the gust of air from Kishi's mouth blew over him. He floated upwards, doing a single barrel roll before her.
"He's a showoff." Sara noted. "He likes to do that... rolling thing." She smirked, and wondered if he would be an athletic child briefly, before her attention turned to Kishi's wings. "You know... I can't get over the fact that Too-ya-la-kekt may very well have wings. How DO you deal with those? I mean, clothes? Don't they get in the way?"
ladyumbra666: Kishi giggled at the sight of the rolling ghost, he was defenitely amusing. "Again" She commanded whishing she was still able to do things like that. Hopefully soon she'd be able to fly again.
ladyumbra666: (ack not done)
ladyumbra666: Malen grinned " On earth wings would be a problem, on gaia so many children have them there's clothes specialy manufactures to suit different wing types and sizes. Of course the big problem is going to be when they get to be flying age , thier wings are going to cuase them huge back problems."
TOREYxANNE: ((My rp isnt set up really well for it to be on gaia, I've got to figure out something... can you get to gaia from earth somewhere?))
ladyumbra666: ( if you want to youcan always have a portal that takes you between worlds. smerdles icrs uses spaceships to send thigns from other worlds to gaia, there's no reason Sara can't just visit gaia on occasion to go to the shop but live on earth i suppose)
TOREYxANNE: Sara furrowed her eyebrows. "Gaia?"
The word was familiar. The name of a goddess, no? It had been used as the name for the Earth, or for mother nature. A confused look crossed her face. "On earth?"
She felt strange. Overwhelmed, somehow. Was she dreaming? This was how she'd felt when she first was chosen to guard Too-ya's wand. She didn't like this feeling.
ladyumbra666: Malen eyed Sara with worry, losing track of yourself was a bad thing but forgetting what planet you were on was worse. " Are you ok? "
TOREYxANNE: Sara shook her head, and then nodded, bringing a hand to her forehead. "I don't know."
Too-ya-la-kekt continued to play, oblivious to his guardian's distress.
It made sense to Sara Two-moons, this mention of another place. Surely, it must be another place entirely? "Can you tell me what place this is, again?"
ladyumbra666: "Gaia" Malen said gently " You must, you must have not come through a normal way or even one you were aware of thier are portals between Earth and gaia that allow travel. you must have somehow stepped through one on your way to the wandshop the first time and stepped back when you went home. " This was disconcertng and he'd need to talk to Ianna about it later, he didn't know if the chidlren were meant to be raised off gaia this time around but it as forher or matilda to decide.
TOREYxANNE: Somehow he spoke exactly what she knew somehow. Sara nodded, letting the words and the truth of them sink in. "I suppose... you know, I've seen so many strange things, I..."
She laughed, a half nervous and half relieved laugh. "This is a very different place from Earth."
ladyumbra666: Malen nodded " Gaia is thehome of everything you read about in myths and fairy tales and then some." At least Sara appeared to be taking this news well.. " Well if nothing else at least you know where to get clothes for your boy when he arrives."
TOREYxANNE: Sara laughed again. Her days had been filled with so much that contradicted the nature of everything she had formerly knew to be true that if they told her the moon was made of green cheese she likely wouldn't have a hard time accepting it.
"I've... not explored the place. I've just gone from my home, to the shop, and back and forth between the two. It doesn't seem so different immediately..." she took a sip of her tea, remembering it suddely. It did something to calm her, and ease her mind and body.
ladyumbra666: Again Malen nodded " oh well when you get to exploring gaia it's a strange but fun place indeed, though if you're nervous about the idea you can always pop by here first and I can play tour guide. It'd give Too ya and Kishi another chance to play togeather since they seem to get along so well."
TOREYxANNE: Sara smiled at the kind offer. "Thank you, Malen... I truly appreciate it. And Too-ya enjoys Kishi as well. Hopefully soon he will grow into a state where they can really start having fun together."
She chuckled, and then set down the empty teacup on the counter. "I suppose I'd best be getting back to E--" She paused, realizing how ridiculous it sounded. "I'd better be getting home. I've a lecture to give in three hours."
She stepped out of the kitchen and over to the floating blue ghost, retrieving his wand. "Come on, Too-ya, Mom has things to do, but we'll come back again soon." Sara winked at Kishi, then waved in both her direction and in Malen's.
ladyumbra666: Parent and child returned the wave and smiled at the pair who was leaving . "Come again soon" Malen said smiling.
At first the woman had assumed that she was going off the deep end. No one had prepared her for Too-ya's latest development! For some time she had noticed that his misted form seemed to be growing larger, and more substantial, day by day -- but until this morning, she hadn't been certain of it.
