(Only for Sevviekun and Rynn, please!)
Rynn knocked on Sevvie's door, Ian on her shoulder, Aria's bloom floating in the bowl she held. She was wondering when Aria would come out. And Ian was wanting to visit the leaf again. She waited on Sevvie to answer the door, chilly.

Roused from poring over his notes on feien magic by a knock at the door, Sevvie hurriedly checked his bloom, then headed out into the hallway to open the door. "Rynn!" he exclaimed cheerfully. "Come in, come in, it's cold out there. Want any cocoa or anything?" He grinned as he saw her entourage. "Brought Ian and Aria too, I see."

"Hey Sevvie!" She said, stepping inside. She took off her jacket after setting the bowl down, Ianios hovering nearby, checking for ice in the bowl. "Cocoa? Sure, I'll take some."
"Me too," Ian said, satisfied Aria and her water hadn't suffered any ill effects out in the cold.
Rynn nodded. "Yeah, Ian said Aria might want to visit the leaf too."

"Very well, three cups of cocoa and some nice warm water for Aria," he said, bustling about the small kitchen. There were only two chairs at the table, but as there were only two human-sized people that worked out just fine. A short while later he set a long, shallow bowl of warm water on the table. He placed his own leaf in the water, motioning that Aria was welcome too. He gave a mug of cocoa to Rynn and poured some from another one into a relatively deep saucer. "I don't have any feien sized cups or anything yet," he admitted, taking a seat with the half-empty mug. "I'd planned to go shopping for things tomorrow."

Rynn put Aria's bloom into the bowl, where her petals curled up a bit, then relaxed. She floated near the leaf. Rynn smiled and sipped the cocoa. "This is good."
Ian nodded, leaning over into the saucer to drink. He nodded. "Yeah, this is good. And I don't mind." He grinned, seeing Aria and the leaf close by each other. "Awww..."
Rynn giggled. "They're so cute." She glanced at Sevvie. "So enjoying having a companion so far? Even if he or she is a leaf?"

Sevvie grinned at the two feien blooms 'socializing' and nodded. "It's interesting, to say the least... I talk to it sometimes and it wiggles back, and we listen to classical together, but other than that there's not been much changed yet. I'm just glad it's still healthy, you know how I am with plants... I'm much better with books, really.. Not so much endangering their lives..." He winced slightly, hoping the bloom's father, being a plant feien, wouldn't take too much offense at the fact he accidentally killed nearly every plant he came across.

Ian glanced at him. "Well, keep doing what you're doing, and the bloom will be fine." At least he hoped. He didn't want his child turned into a gemstone so soon after the blooming.
Rynn smiled at Ian. "Don't worry, Sevvie can handle the leaf. He's capable. Besides, he can leave it alone and it'll be fine."
Ian nodded, sipping more warm cocoa. He went over to the bowl, patting the leaf then Aria. "We should be fine."
Aria curled her petals around Ian's hand, as if trying to reassure him. Rynn thought Aria knew Ian's worries. But Sevvie would be fine with the bloom.

"So what's it like, being a plant feien? Or for that matter, a plant feien's bond?" he asked, looking back and forth from Rynn and Ianios curiously. The scientifically analytical side of his brain had kicked in, and he had two good resources sitting right there.

Rynn hid her smirk behind her mug as she took a sip. "Well," she said, when she lowered the cup. "You know you're in charge of someone, to make sure they grow up, learn to live almost on their own. Sure, they will want to be on their own, but they're a part of you, you're a part of them. You're always a parent to them, in a way." She glanced to Ian, who was listening closely.
"Yeah, you're the bond that holds that feien to life. Why we need people now, I'm not sure."
"I think it's because the feien's hold on life has faded quite a bit. They need us. And I can't imagine life without mine."
Ian grinned up at Rynn, who smiled back. "As for being a plant feien, well, it's like being you. I just know magic you might not."

Sevvie nodded thoughtfully, pondering this as he sipped his cocoa. "So it's kind of like being a parent to an actual baby then... Only not as much drool or diapers," he added, grinning. "And they seem to grow up a lot faster... I think I'm going to like it though." He stuck his tongue out at Ian then. "You aren't very much help with your magic answer though." He smiled to show he didn't really mean it.

Ian stuck out his tongue. "Ha, the feien will find out on his own. Assuming Leafy is a he." He rubbed over the leaf. "Sorry if you're a girl."
Rynn smirked. "Ignore him, Ian. He's silly."

"Yeah, but you like me anyway, right?" he asked, smiling at them. "Really though I'm glad you guys think I'm doing a good job, you don't know how much it means to me," he said, sliding one finger around the rim of his cup. "I guess after all that while I finally got a little lonely... I'm glad you two - three, sorry Aria - were there to help me out." He gave them a grateful little half-smile. "I suppose I should really find the feien some other friend too though... I'm sure I'll get fairly boring by myself after a while. Any ideas?"

"Pixapets!" Ian cried. "They got mice, dogs, cats..."
Rynn smiled. "Wait until he or she emerges, then take them to the Pixa shop. I think it's free, seeing as how couple of donated for new feien."

"And these Pixapets are small enough for a Feien?" he said, looking at them with interest. "How big would you say they are?"

Rynn nodded. "Of course. About as small as the first tip of my pinkie. Maybe slightly larger. They're the perfect size for a feien."
"We also got dragons. I wanted to bring Celaien, he's my red dragon I named after my deceased love, but Rynn said it was too cold for him."
