Duncan looked down at his son who was toddling along next to him but not quite holding onto him. It wasn't his choice mind you, Iah was the sort that would be like his Mommy if it were possible, the sort that would hug and love on anyone he was able to get near... but there in lay the problem, nobody but Adriel was able to get close due to the pair of tentacles that Iah had. The pair seemed to be growing to be more and more like Duncan as time passed. They were mean, they were over protective, and they hit rather hard for being as small as they were...
He lowered a hand to ruffle his boy's hair, "Its alright." He told the boy in a gentle manner, giving him a smile.
As he did that Iah relaxed a little and smiled then gave a squeak as one of his tentacles took a swing at Duncan, smacking him hard in the hand which made him draw back. Iah gave a little sighing sound when his Father was forced to stop ruffling his hair and gave the tentacle a saddened sort of look.
"We are almost to the store, maybe we can find something to distract them with." He assured his son as they stepped inside the small store.

Noel held on tightly to his own little son's hand, who was happily swinging it back and forth. Edes had grown literally over night, and now wore a pair of very loose pants and a long sleeved shirt that was just the right size, but with extended sleeves that dragged near his legs. Today was his first outing since his growth, and everything seemed a bit smaller than before.
The spawn was beyond excited, and was now leading his father into a store, a small one at that. In his heart, he wanted to sing, and he loved doing just that. He sung day and night, though.. Only when he was alone. You see, his singing, which he picked up from his sister, Alome, who's singing healed injuries, had become a lullaby for anything, well.. Anything his size or smaller. He had practiced with their kitten Apro, and he was able to sing him to sleep in about forty seconds..
For now, Edes was humming a tune that had no real pattern, just notes that were strung together. He watched his father go down an aiel, and he decided to take a different one, as he was big enough to wander away rather safely. Before he knew it, he came face to face with a Man and a boy who had features much like the ones that the people from the facility.
"Oh, hewoah! How is you!" He smiled, speaking rather softly. As a sloth child, he didn't feel the need to speak loudly, for it took too much energy. His speech was a bit awkward for a boy his age as well. Being raised with a mute father left him at a disadvantage. He hardly heard others speak to him, so he never had a chance to speak with others. "Is uu from da facility too?"

Duncan paused a moment as a new person appeared in front of him and Iah. He leaned over to look at Edes a little more carefully before sniffing at him. He didn't smell of anything dangerous he thought after a moment, neither of the more dangerous sins so he didn't very much mind this one talking with his son, "You can say that, at least I am from there." He said lowering a hand to lay it on Iah's head for a moment, "This one isn't associated with that place though, he was born naturally."
Iah lifted his gaze to look up at his Father, curious what they were talking about. For once the tentacles didn't come up to swing at his Father as they were instead moving in a waving motion much like snakes did in a manner that was meant to ward off Edes from getting any closer then he already was. They didn't want anyone to touch 'their' Iah and it bothered them more that a stranger was getting close then it did that the Father was touching Iah... at least for the moment.
The small boy gave them a long look before looking Edes over and smiled at him ever so softly before hiding behind his hands in a shy manner. He was a sweet boy, his gentle nature belying the fact that he had the blood of two of the three most dangerous creatures from the Labs flowing in his veins.

"Big man sniff Edes. He funny!" Edes giggled and flapped his wings a bit, excited to meet someone from the same place he was. He attempted to sniff back, but didn't really smell anything except the sweet scents of the laundry detergent aisle.
Edes walked a little closer to Iah, blinking and smiling at him. "Oh~ You has a real mommy and daddy! I has a daddy, and annudder daddy!! ^^ DO you have two daddy's like Edes do? OH! I is Edes. Nice to meet you!" His soft pink gaze rested on the tentacles, and he reached out to them. "Lots of da bois I meet have tentathingies." He nodded wisely, naming a few. "Dere was Kyler and Fwey, but yours are cuter, and you are adoriboo! Dey are red, not 'urple!"
He was so used to tentacles being overly affectionate, that he couldn't help but attempt to pet them.

Duncan watched the small boy as he came in closer to Iah and watched the pair closely. While he couldn't see any reason not to trust the new boy he had many reasons not to really trust the bratty tentacles that belonged to his son so when they started to do their 'snake dance' which was their version of trying to ward off those that came in near to Iah he reached down and caught hold of them with his strong hands. He wasn't hurting them so much as just holding them in place.
"He has two Father's but... its a long story." Duncan said with a little smile, "His name is Iah and I am Duncan."
Iah's trio of eyes got huge when his father caught hold of the writhing limbs before he seemed to smile in such a happy manner and reached his mall hands out to Edes's hands. He would be able to touch him he realized and wanted to do so while he was allowed. He could tell by the way his own stiffened that they were unamused by being held down in such a manner and less so by the fact that Iah was getting friendly with someone else. Did the boy not understand that he belonged to them?

((*laughs* Edes doesn't have tentacles~))
Edes blinked as the big man caught the tentacles and held them up. "oh no no no.. Poor tentathingies.. " He murmured to himself, but then pretty much let out a squeak of happiness when the little one made grabby hands at his wings.
"Iah-ah want's to pet? Okies!!" He came in close, taking Iah's hand and placing his hand against it. "Soft, right? Daddy washes dem with Dawn soap, cause he say it's gentle enough for them!"
After a few moments, he looked up to Duncan sadly. "Uh.. Mr. Duncan man sir..? I put things to sleep.. Maybe I can help and put the tentathingies to sleep! I sing softly and only they fall alseep? I try?"

Iah gave a soft, gasping sound of delight as his hands ran over the soft, soft wings of the other boy. He'd never gotten to pet wings before, had never met anyone with wings before... this was just... so wonderful! He flushed a bit from his happiness then stepped a little closer to nuzzle against one of them. They were so nice!
Duncan found himself glancing at Edes in a curious manner, "You can try it if you wish." He told him, up to letting the boy attempt to put the tentacles down for a nap. It would be a rather nice trick and would make it a lot easier for the two boys to try to greet one another then having him hold the tentacles in place.

A soft, chirping sound echoed around Edes. Oh, It was him giggling as Iah nuzzled his wings, causing a wave of ticklish shivers running through his spine.
"Iah-ah... That tickles!" He squeaked, patting the younger boy's head, before getting on his knees, becomeing about the same hight as the base of the tentacles. He rolled up one sleeve, just barely enough for his index finger to appear. Edes gently stroked the base of the first tentacle, crooning a soft song in a foreign language. He did the same for the other, hoping to put both of the tentacles asleep.

Iah gave a jump at the words of the bigger boy. He gazed up at him for a long moment before he gave a little smile and stepped back to let go of Edes. He wanted to keep petting the pretty wings but if it were bothering Edes he wasn't going to keep loving on them. He almost wished he had nice, soft wings like those... instead he had bratty tentacles. His eyes went a bit wide as he watched the other boy was brave enough to reach into touch one of his tentacles and he felt the thing stiffen in an angry manner... but the song, it seemed to calm the limb and it went from its normal self to relaxing and as Duncan released it the long tendril wrapped itself around Iah possessively before it seemed to doze off.
The other tentacle froze in place before it jerked away from Duncan and it turned to nudge at the sleeping tentacle... when it seemed as though the other wasn't going to wake it turned to 'look' at Edes in a rather unamused manner from the way it was writhing and doing its 'snake dance'.
Duncan reached down to recapture it before it could take a swing at the other boy, "Good work with the first one, just need to deal with this one and then Iah will be able to better play with you." He was glad to see that Iah would get at least a small chance to play with someone around his own age while the tentacles slept.

With another smile up to the rather.. Upset tentacle, Edes began to stroke the base of this one, rubbing tiny circles along it's sides. This time, he sang a different song, one that could be understood if he were to sing any louder, but if he did that, he'd put Iah to sleep.
Last night, Good night
Last night, Good night
This night, I hold your hand
Tight, and fall asleep
Goodnight
He smiled, kissing the tentacle too, his overly affectionate side coming out once more. If these tentacles were nice, like Kyler's were, he'd probably be cuddling with them already.

There was a look of something akin to shock on the face of Iah as Edes braved the danger that was his misbehaving tentacles to lean over and give one of them a kiss. He was... kissing them?! He couldn't help but stare in rapt fascination, as though Edes was suddenly the most interesting and daring person that he'd ever met before in his life... and then he was smiling in a happy manner.
The second of the tentacles did just as the first one had when it found itself growing sleepy, it wrapped itself around Iah in that same possessive manner before it was down for the count. While there was no telling how long they would sleep it was still a window of opportunity that Iah had never had before. This was the first time that he could recall that he was awake and they weren't... he almost had no idea what he should do with him... then a moment later he was hugging tightly to his new friend in a happy and thankful manner. This was so nice! He was able to snuggle on someone without fear that his tentacles would punish that other person for it... this had to be the best day ever!
Duncan couldn't help but give a little smile as his son hugged on his friend. He was completely fine with such a thing given they were young and had didn't seem to have any of the same ideas as adults did. For now he would allow such things though perhaps not so much when Iah was older.

"Oh~ It worked!!" Edes smiled, standing up straight and hugging Iah. "So now, Tentathingies won't attack Edes or Iah-ah papa, and Iah-ah can hug!"
Edes backed away, admiring how the tentacles were being so calm and left Iah alone to his own devices. "If Iah-ah ever want's a break from his tentathingies, then just call Edes and He'll put them right to sleep!"
After a few more moments of general hugs and cooes of affection, Edes looked around, finally realizing he was lost. His ears lowered, ashamed that this had happened again. "Um.. Mr. Duncan Man Sir... Can you help me find my daddy? I lost him.."

Duncan reached down to scoop up Iah, hugging close his son and nuzzled against his hair in an affectionate manner. He enjoyed the peaceful moment with his son and the ability to hold him like this without having to worry over being pummeled. Iah seemed at first surprised before he was suddenly clinging to his father, nuzzling against him, and making happy sounds.
The wrath spawn smiled before looking down at Edes, offering him a hand, "Come on, lets see if we can find your Father." He said, more then willing to help, especially after Edes gave him and his son such a wonderful gift in making the tentacles nap.

He watched the two interact and smiled, holding a hand to his chest. He felt so warm inside, knowing that he was able to help the father and son duo. Edes began to believe that that was his duty in life, to help people~! But for now, he'd remain a kid.
"Oh.. Thank you!" Edes smiled shyly, taking Duncan's hand through his sleeve. "Daddy is shorter dan you, wid long brown hair and a streak of.. uh.. green in it. He no can talk, so he no answer when you call out, and he, uh.. um.. Uh.. OH! His name is Noel!"

Duncan gave a nod of his head as he moved forward in pursuit of the one called Noel. It was shame he didn't have the scent of the man as he would be able to find him more easily and given the man couldn't speak he didn't bother to call out for him. Instead he looked around with his trio of eyes to find a man with brown hair that had a green streak in it. He had to be around here somewhere... though the man deserved to be pummeled for letting his kid get lost. Then again that was just Duncan's biased speaking, he was so over protective of his own son who wasn't even allowed out of his sight.
"We will keep looking until we find him." Duncan assured Edes, not about to abandon him.
Iah looked around a bit as well though he was leaning against his Father's chest so he didn't really get to spot as much as his Father might be able to see, giving a yawn here and there. Now that he was warm, comfortable, and able to relax without his tentacles acting up he found himself almost as sleepy as they were.
