Welcome to Gaia! ::

Angelus nodded to Alala. "Flighty. As in, she's upredictable." He stated. "Are you sure?" he asked the centaur, but she seemed like she was okay.

His brown eyes looked to Tiwaz. "Well it's pretty much just us. I haven't seen anyone else. Have you Sylvester?" he asked the giraffe since he was here before Angelus was.

"Yes, I did!" Vidya was grinning that carefree, eyeless grin she'd always had. Really, she didn't see anything wrong in telling people about him! He never said she couldn't, after all. "Thats because I haven't seen you since I met her!" She's shot back defensively, with a small whine to her voice. Her whiteish eyes shifted as she caught Lance wandering over to them.

Vidya then went silent for once, merely watching Lance and Elena with a strangely knowing expression; out of habit she played with the small silver heart pendent that still rested around her neck, secured there by the same blue ribbon. She'd seen Elena blush when Lance walked over, and she'd seen Lance get taken aback by Elena...apparently she's more observant about things like that now. Even though she didn't know the first things about relationships, even she had to admit the perfect match was a Princess with her Knight! After a moment or two, Vidya giggled softly as she lowered her arms again to press her fingertips together out of habit, placing them near her lips in a rather adoring way.

"You two are so cute!" She commented gleefully, this time fully clasping her hands together. "Like a Fairy Tale!" Luckily for them, she was instantly pushed off that topic upon hearing Tybalt's growl, more than anything. Curiously, she leaned her head to the side, her headwings giving a little twitch.

"Maybe it meant something to him? Whatever it is, anyway." Shrugging slightly, she fixed her bag on her shoulder. "I'd chase after someone if they took something that meant something to me!" Nodding in confirmation, she then threw her arms in the air. "Stuff thats important is worth the trouble!" Instead of lowering her arms, she merely folded them behind her head, only really succeeding in ruffling her orange bandana and shifting her three braids.

{Okay, I don't know if she can talk taht well, so please poke me if you find anything wrong. ^^;;}

She found herself outside the door of the shop. She had been here just days ago, and she didn't know what brought her back. Something told her to return to this place, plus there was the cloaked figure's words to consider. "Seek them out" was easiler said then done. Firstly, she don't have a clue about who 'them' is or where to find 'them'.

So, the first place to search would be where it all begun. Taking a deep breath, Elana stepped into the shop, opening the door a crack and peeking in. She heard voices, and movement. Could this be the answer she had been looking for all this while? With a hopeful heart, she pushed open the door all the way, and walked slowly towards the voices.

"Uh..." She stammered, "Hi?"

"Elana wait for me!" Ayden called out as his legs fumbled beneath his small body behind Elana. He looked around where he was trying to memorize the spot that they were at, "I don't want to lose you again, so we stick together... otay (okay)?" Ayden peaked his head around Elana's trying to see inside, and saw a group of older kids hanging about. "You think we're going to find it here still? Ayden asked as he looked at the older kids, none of them showing him any promise of showing them what they were looking for, "Wait a second... I've seen some of these people before... but how? Elana, do you remember?" Ayden asked her as he followed her inside.

He looked back as Heart stared back in through the windows at them keeping a closed Mother's eye on him, although, knowing as long as she kept her eye on him, he and Elana would be fine together and that it might be better if she didn't interfere, she didn't understand quite as much as was going on as the twins knew, and she didn't have any answers for the young boy's questions, but he might, just might, find them here. So Heart just waited on a bench nearby, so he was in plain view

Armel stared at Nalira a long hard moment as she did yet didn't respond to his question and then proceeded to turn the topic unto him. Something was wrong and the fact that she covered it up seemed mildly hurtful. Though at least Nalira was nice to Chieko so he couldn't fault her for that. So he decided to let that go. Nalira looked different too somehow, but he'd bug her on that topic later, "I'm alright I guess. Cann'ae hardly sleep now 'er days, but that is not important."

He was about to say something to Chieko when a small girl with dark brown hair coming toward them. It wasn't until she was closer that he noted the jewel embedded to her forehead. Then of course next thing of note was the question and introduction. Armel was caught so off guard that for a few moment his face went utterly blank as he tried to register a proper reaction before nodding, "Aye, I'm a Tale, m'name is Armel." The ram-horned boy added after a moment. A name for a name. Armel couldn't say she smelled familiar but she had a nice feeling of familiarity or rather a bond of sorts.

Armel was smiling a bit at Rhea, but then he heard an 'Eep' of a small voice. At that point the ram-horned boy looked over toward Fai and his guardian. He tilted his head a bit and smiled at them, "More the merrier!" He said invitingly to Taley and Fai. The little boy had that same feeling Rhea had though he hadn't met him for long.

For wanting to be alone this was turning into quite a gathering, but strangely he didn't mind being surrounded anymore. Chieko and Nalira seemed to have put him in a decent mood now. Armel turned to Chieko and laughed, "Looks like we've started a trend!"

Angelus curiously conversed with the bunch that was congregating in the shop. Then, out of nowhere, the bell sounded signaling that new people were about to join them. Brown eyes looked towards to door only to be introduced by two other children. Not human at all.

Quirking an eyebrow, he looked towards the others then back to the two. The girl spoke english, but the boy seemed to speak a different language.

He rose up from his seat and the bottom of his wings brushed the floor, while the top of them rose above his head with just a few inchest.

"Hi Elana and Ayden." He nodded to the two. He introduced himself as well as the others. "I'm Angelus. This is Tiwaz, Sylvester, and Alala." He pointed to the girl with the orb, the giraffe, and the centaur so the two children knew who was who.

"Do you need anything?" He wasn't sure if they were Tales or children looking to buy gifts.

Chieko had just started to stand when Armel spoke to her again, making her freeze halfway up. She smiled at him, and nodded "Certainly have. It's good, now you have a lot of friends to keep you company." She straightened up, and pull a backpack onto her back, before she stretched and yawned. She smiled at Nalira, Rhea, and Fai with his author, before she smoothed out one of her green sweater sleeves. "I myself need to get going. It was nice meeting you. You have a good day, Armel, and tell your father you were a good little man and refused my candy." She gave a quick coo to the adorable little Fai, since who could resist such an adorable sight of goggles and feathers, before she turned, and headed off, smiling pleasently and waving behind her.

After she was gone, it's quite noticeable that the bag of candy is still sitting on the edge of the fountain, brown paper bag concealing all the goodness inside.
