A simple park with the typical arrangement of play places for the young ones to enjoy themselves on. A large play castle stood up out of a 'moat' of bark chips. Plastic mostly, with such things as a jointed bridge connecting one side to the other, a zipper where a child could rip from one 'castle' to the other, a large series of slides- some cork screwing down, others waving down, and others still simply going at a nice direct downward angle. There were monkey bars and a large monkeybar dome just a few yards from the main castle. There were rocking animals such as a horse, a tiger, and a whale for the smaller children, two sets of swings- one made for infants and one for the older kids.

Gabriel read from a park bench overlooking the play area, kicking a foot lightly . Gillian needed more fresh air, being confined to his manner all day wasn't healthy for him at all- and he'd not made as many friends as the elf hoped that he would. Especially after the death of his pet, the child would need a lot of things to distract his mind from such things. He'd never been to the park before-mainly because Gabriel made it a point to avoid places full of children when with Gillian...Chaco had said that he'd be weaker and more prone to illness which proved true time and again. If even one child sneezed close to him the odds were he'd be sneezing by morning. He just had to be careful was all.
Gillian had never been to a park- it just seemed so big and wonderful. However- big meant trouble. It had been quite a struggle to get up onto the play casle in the first place. Having only learned to walk, climbing was out of the question so he was confined to the stairs, slowly pulling himself up until he came to the top. Slightly winded, the horned boy plunked himself down, danging his legs over a slide and holding onto one of the padded bars. It was getting colder, later in the year. From there he could see the trees- not many of them had lost any leaves but half of them were already licked with orange and yellows on one side. The colors were so beautiful, he'd never thought that the leaves changed clothes for fall too.
He wore a thicker tunic, a long scarf that wrapped around his neck and dragged a bit behind him, thicker pants and a set of warm fall boots and mittens. Perhaps itw as a bit much- but Gabe could never be too careful.

"Daddy, look it! This place is so big...wow...I wanna go play! Here hold it. Junketsu shoved her favorite stuffed cow in PJ's hands and headed over towards the play castle, she still carried that little plush around nearly every place she went. The weather was getting colder so she was wearing a rather large jacket, and a pair of jeans, on her head was a pink baseball hat, her pony tail sticking out from the back. "Wheeeee~"
"I...okay, just be careful Junketsu, don't run up there. Its not very safe, you have a tendancy to trip when you run remember?" PJ sighed and headed over towards the bench were Gabriel was currently sitting, why she was so full of energy today was beyond him. "...Gabriel?"

"Wow!" Anisia's three eyes began to brighten. The park was really big! And there were other kids there too! That made it even better. Too bad they hadn't found this place in the summer though, she thought as she fixed her white beanie on her head and straightened out her jean jacket. "I'll be over there by the castle!" Ani called to Kiita.
"Be careful! Don't go anywhere else without telling me first!" Kiita called back as she watched the Sin girl run off to play. She smiled. It was good Ani was getting out of the house a lot more. Pocketing her hands, she began to look for a bench to sit on and watch.

Gabriel looked up from his book, using a finger to adjust the reading glasses on his face. "Ahhh, PJ. It has been a while." He smiled, extending a welcome hand, "I do apologize. Things have been...complicated to say the very least."
Gillian jumped a bit as feet pounded towards the playplace- two sets of them so far. Leaning back just slightly, he looked around the beams where he sat towards the sound. His eyes widened and mouth fell open a bit. His sister? And another girl apparently- one he'd not met yet. Both had grown so...big.
He closed his mouth slowly and looked down at himself- still small, very, very small. Making a bit of a displeased grunt he pulled his feet under him and struggled back to a stand, smiling none the less. "Junkie!" He waved.

Cameo really didn't know what to look at first. There were so many things, and now that she could walk on her own, without the aid of her family members, there were so much more possibilities! And there were other kids there too! Hardly able to contain herself, she shrugged off her backpack and handed it to her 'uncle' behind her. "I'm gonna go play, HiHi." She told him quickly, before rushing off, pulling her jacket around her and her thick skirt wipping around her ankles.
Hilian blinked and sighed, slipping Cameo's backpack over one shoulder. 'Take her to the park or something,' Phantom had said, 'please? I need to finish up some things before our new housemates arrive, and she wants to go out. Just make sure she doesn't hurt herself.' Brushing a hand through his hair, he rolled his eyes. 'Just make sure she doesn't hurt herself.' Shouldn't be too hard, should it?

"WOW! Look at this place Menou! Doesn't it look cool?!" Yume said excitedly as she looked at the park, with Menou following her.
"You are VERY embarassing, ya know that? How old are you again? 5? 6?" Menou asked, sitting on a nearby bench and watched Yume play.
"Oh hush now, I'm 18 and it's been days since I've been to a park! Days!" Yume said with a smile. She looked around and spotted the swing set. "Ooo! A swing!" She went over to one and started to swing on it. "Menou! Get over here and push me!"
Menou facepalmed, but went over to where Yume was and started to push her. "Happy?
"Yes, yes I am." She grinned.

Sjajan seemed to be the only child left to go to places like the park alone, as she was here now. Glancing around, she blew pale strands from her eyes and tromped through the park, headphones on, not noticing much until she reached the swings and found someone already there. A big kids. Jan didn't like THOSE much. Where were her FRIENDS? Still, she plopped down on the free one, and blinked at Yume and Menou.
"Hullo..."

((Kay, guess it was my post))
PJ took Gabriel's hand and shook it with a smile "Hm...yes, I know what you mean Gabriel, it has been a bit crazy on my side to, Junketsu is becomming a handful, speaking of the children how is Gill being for you?
Junketsu was shocked, she really didn't expect to see her brother here, she actually had not seen Gill in quit some time now. She threw her arms around Gillian, and smiled "Gilly! I missed you! Where have you been? Here lets go over to the swings now okay?" Junketsu released Gill and took his hand, she headed to the swings, a rather large group was gathering over there. She even saw a few people she knew.

Gabriel shook the man's hand shortly before returning it to his book, slowly and carefully closing it, "Difficult. Not him- and not on purpose. I've lost so many pillows... I do believe if I were to put one more patch on his recent one it would mean I've re-sewn the whole thing." he chuckled, "I do worry, he falls ill quite often. Nothing serious... and he's still so small... that and...well." He looked down a bit, setting the old book in his lap, "His horse died... a wolf came into our property. It's so difficult to explain it to a child."
Gil did his best in wrapping his arms around his sister, "Junkie got big!" He smiled, taking her hand as she suggested the swings, "Will...you help me walk? I still fall lots n'... swings too high..." He looked down a bit.

Anisia had climbed a little ways above on top of the playground's castle, beaming happily. This place was great. And how high she was, she could see almost everything and everyone! "Hiii!" She called aloud to everyone. She waved her hands in the air to get someone's attention.

Menou stopped pushing Yume, looked at the young girl and gave her a friendly smile. "Hi, I'm-OOF!"
Yume had swung back, knocking the wind out of Menou, making Menou fall down. "Yume, watch where you swing next time!" She grumbled.
"Eheheh, sorry 'bout that Menou." She jumped off, making sure to stop the swing so it wouldn't hurt anyone else, and helped Menou up. "Oh! Hi there! I'm Yume!" She said to Jan.
