It was at least eighty degrees, and Vinny, the preteen that he was becoming ill tempered from the sheer heat. He and his older brother seemed to share their dislike for summer, prefering Fall and Spring. For now, he was getting drenched under a giant mushroom.
Not a real mushroom, but the kind they have near kiddie pools and water parks. It was painted yellow with large red spots, not that Vinny could see them from underneath said mushroom. The water was cool, and felt good on his face. Stupid heat. Why'd it have to be hot now, anyway?

Kyler just sat under the opposite mushroom. Not going anywhere, because if he did, he would either bump into someone, or fall into the deep end at the big kids' pool.
His brother was here too, but he was at the big kids' pool with his friends. Kyler just felt alone over there. He needs a friend with him, like Edes...

Vinny spotted a toddler under the other mushroom. Risking the sunshine for a moment, he got out from under his and ran over to the toddler's. "Hi!" He greeted. Having someone to talk to made the summer seem better. He kneeled down so he was closer to the younger boy's level. "What's your name?" He asked.

Kyler jumped, his tentawings moved as if they were looking at the bigger kid. "My name's Kyler Hilson... Where are you?" His right tentawing was touching Vinny's soft ear-wing feathers. The left one, however, was enjoying the water.

"Tykier's little brother?" Vinny asked, blinking. "Cool. Oh, and I'm Vincent--but I don't like being called that." He explained. "I only get called that when I'm in trouble--you can call me Vinny, and we'll be friends, alright?"
He paused, and leaned his head back so his face was getting sprayed. He looked back at the toddler. "Are Ty's allergies any better?" He asked.

"Okay... And yeah.. Are you one of Big Brother's friends?" Kyler looked up towards the voice. 'Looking' at Vinny with his dusty pale yellow eyes. His right tentawing reached for Vinny's arm.

"Yeah, I am." Vinny said, sounding modest. "Actually--he's one of my friends." He'd taken on more of the greed side lately, being more possessive about his friends, family, and especially his belongings. "Hey, you can't see, can you?" He asked finally.

"Yeah... But my tentawings help me around!" He said as the tentawings basically waved at Vinny. "Another kid thought that he was ugly because I wasn't looking at him, though..." He got splashed by a bucket from the top of the mushroom.

Vincent felt a wave of pity for the toddler, which was uncommon for him, seeing as he was humility. Sure he wasn't like the others, sure he didn't wallow in self-pity all the time, but still. Pitying someone else was quite new to him.
"That's lame." He muttered. "What's it like, not being able to see?" He asked. "I bet you can hear better than anyone, though. Mom says that's what happens when you can't see."

"Well... I can smell when my Mom cooks her delicious filet Mignon... My mouth just drools thinking about it!" Kyler closed his eyes, and thought of the thought(real slick, eh?).
"It's kind of difficult to walk around everything... I usually trip over something in the house, but I can still find my way around. I was born blind, so I had more experience with the obstacle more than anyone else I know," he said finally.

"Oh, cool." Vinny commented, with a nod. He smiled at the toddler, and then remembered the boy couldn't see it. "Why don't you use a cane?" He asked. "They're supposed to help people--by telling them where things are. Kinda like bats! Bats are blind, but they use echo-location to find things."
The preteen gave a wise nod, and sighed. He kept forgetting that Kyler couldn't see.

"Well, my tentawings help me around sometimes... But, other times, they just get in the way..." Kyler stated. Being a blind Lust spawn had its ups and downs.

"Oh." Vinny said, nodding. "Like how my tail helps me balance." He shrugged, as if this was of little importance. "You want to hang out in here for a while, or play a game?" He asked, looking to the toddler. "I've never actually played with someone who's blind--so if I do something, well that you can't see... Tell me, alright? I bet you're excellent at blind man's bluff. Want to play that?"

Kyler looked to were Vinny's voice was coming from. "I never played that game before... How do you play?" He got up, as was trying to not fall down.

"Well, one person's the blind man, and one's the person who hides. The blind man has to find him, and then the one who isn't blind runs while the blind man tries to catch him. It's really fun! I like being the blind man, too." Vinny said cheerfully. "Want to play?"
