Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rune said nothing, setting her head in her hands as though she would cheerfully die at that moment. Yvette seemed to think for a minute, then nodded. "Boy fwend." She pondered for a moment more. What had Steel called them? That's it! "Wover!" She clapped.

The young man that stepped into the doorway paused, obviously not quite sure what on earth was going on. Standing several inches taller than Rune, he was nicely tanned, with straight dark hair that just brushed the edge of his collar. Slightly sharp featured, his clothing was rather casual, worn jeans with sturdy, high-topped hiking boots and a plain gray T-shirt only slightly tighter than average. He appeared to be about twenty-two, his gray-green eyes puzzled as he took everything in. "Lov-er - Evie, what the hel - heck are you talking about?"

Rune made a soft sound like a mouse being stepped on, and Yvette giggled, tugging at Ancelin's hand. "Daddy Fint." She explained, pointing to the young man. "Goo daddy. Pway horsey!" Horo Horo, too, nodded and giggled. "Daddy Fint!"

(*cracks up* Just wait 'til I get a GMFC appointment. Then it'll be worse.)

The man - Flint - blinked once, then twice, for once at a complete loss for words. What the hell was going on here? Who was this guy, and why did Rune look like she wanted to strangle him even more than usual? And what was with the lover bit? He stared at Tenshi. "Um . . . hello?"

Horo Horo squealed in delight, nodding vigorously. "Daddy Fint goo ride." He grinned proudly at his 'father,' not noticing - or possibly not caring - Rune's death glare at the older male. "Make Mummy waf!"

"Diffent." Yvette answered her new best friend's comment with a firm nod. This she was sure on - well, mostly. "Boy fwend, wover boy fwend diffent." She frowned up at Flint. "Wight, Daddy?"

"I'm going to strangle both of you." Rune muttered under her breath, looking from Tenshi to Flint and back again. "Somehow, this is all your fault."

Flint flicked a look at Rune, then shrugged and heaved a long-suffering sigh. "Tis my fault, I fear." His eyes twinkled as he shook his head, facing Tenshi. The eye Rune couldn't see closed in a smug wink, and he added, "I am so annoying I can irritate her even without my physical presence."

Yvette thought about this for a moment, then nodded. Anny was smart, probably even as smart as Evi's big sisters and brothers. If she said it wasn't a big deal, then Yvette believed her. Mimicking the quail Sin's gesture, she crossed her small arms and nodded. "No bi biwl." She echoed, staring at her mother.

"Wheee!" Horo Horo giggled and hugged Tenshi, quite pleased. He liked the new Tenshi almost more than the old one - the old one had never picked him up and played with him like this before.

"You both suck." Rune's flush was fading, and she snorted as Flint crouched down to Ancelin and Yvette's level. "Hello, Yvette. Who's your pretty little feathered friend?"

Tenshi stopped bouncing Horohoro for a moment as he looked to the man, before to Rune. She had never been this way around him before. To this Tenshi shrugged and set Horohoro on the ground so he could go play, before looking to the girls.
"She's mine. Her name is Ancelin. She's a pheasant from the Sin-aeis." He said with a smug smirk, crossing his arms.

Ancelin looked up at the man as he aproached her, before frowning. She then stood up and ran over to Tenshi's pant leg, clinging to it.
"Big man scawy! Makin Rune mad." She said, before sticking her tounge out at him. It seemed she was a little uncomfortible around him.

Tenshi blinked and reached down, rubbing the back of Ancelin's head as she hid behind him. Ancelin got shy easily around adults, it was nothing new. But it seemed the vibes Rune was giving off did scare the little girl.
"It's okay Anny. I wont let anybody hurt you." He said with a grin, reasuring the girl.

Ancelin looked up at Tenshi and then to Rune, and then to Flint. If they said so.. She then walked out from behind Tenshi's leg to show she wasn't scared anymore, but she didn't move back to her old post.
"Kay." She said, before scurring back over and behind Yvette.

Ancelin's eyes grew wide with glee from this, before she ran up to Tenshi and started pulling on his leg.
"Shi-shi! Shi-shi!! Gimme ball!" She said, bouncing up and down. Tenshi then chuckled and reached itno the baby bag he was carrying over his shoulder, and pulled out a yellow rubber ball with a snowflake on it. She used to have a blue one similar to it, but she gave it to Tori when she first met him.

After recieing the ball Ancelin rushed over to Yvette's side, before throwing the ball at the strange screen. She then squeeled with joy as it made the sound and came back to her, before she looked to Yvette.
"Neato Sweeto!"

Tenshi then smirked and looked to Rune, before letting out a playful wink.
"Taww, you aent no b***h Runie. He's just like my stalker Gaunt." He said with a frown, before shrugging. "He didn't want me so much after this happened though." He said, before slapping a hand agianst the bare skin of his chest.

Tenshi sighed and shook his head, shrugging his shoulders as he let out a grin.
"Yeah, same Gaunt. 'Cept he's lost his memory from back when he had Tsuche. And now he's got it in his head we where lovers. Wont leave me be." He said with a sigh, slumping his shoulders. He then blinked as his watch started beeping, and frowned.
"Oh dear, seems it's time for me to go to work.."

Ancelin blinked after throwing her ball and catching it agian, having heard what Tenshi said. She then looked up to her gaurdian and frowned, clenching the ball with her fists.
"We have to go now?" She frowned. She wanted to stay and play...

"Yeah.. Sorry kiddo." Tenshi said as he picked up Ancelin, holding her to his chest. He then looked to Rune, winking.
"Maybe I could bring Ancelin, Yumoa, and Tsuche over for a sleep over sometime? Or Yvette and Shiran could come to my place. That way they could have some quality play time together without being interupted from my job." He said, chuckling.
