Her time in the market had been bountiful, as she now walked home with a large sack of grain in her hands. It was a bit awkward for her to carry, so she had to pause every now and then to adjust and get a better grip, but she was managing fairly well. At her side walked a mossy green colored scorra, though he seemed more interested in what she carried than where he was walking. Sy laughed and would have to twist away from the curious beak of the bird every so often. "You can wait til we get home, Elyam." She'd gently scold the creature as she looked at him with a grin. It seemed like she had found herself a companion after all.

Cyn was sprawled out on the couch, a damp cloth lazily thrown across the back of his head. The coolness of the water was a blessing for his throbbing skull. In his arrogance Cyn had forgotten to pay attention to his instincts, and the world around him. Not only did that allow someone to sneak a hit on him, it let the thieves escape. Either feeling sorry for him, or just disappointed in him, Cyn's teacher had let him rest for the day once the guards dragged Cyn's unconscious body to him. They had waited for him to wake up, then questioned Cyn to make sure the stories all matched up. Once that was done the Guards left without another word. Cyn hadn't been in the wrong, and he didn't use extreme force to subdue the thieves so all he got was a warning. Cyn let out a deep sigh as he kept picturing the whole scenario over and over. It was the only thing keeping him awake which he knew was the smart thing to do. A blow to the head generally makes you sleepy, but it was best he stay awake for a bit.

Once she reached the house she set the sack on the porch so that she could manage it after things were done. Syqvara half expected the bird to peck the bag open and begin his feast but he seemed more interested in following her. She entered the house and looked around before she called out. "Hello, anyone home?" Unlike most days her voice held an excited tone. The girl couldn't wait to show off her new pet and Elyam looked as if he wanted to be shown off as he strutted right on into the house. His actions made her giggle. "Elyam, I don't think mother would like you in the house." Still, she was secretly hoping that the overgrown bird would be welcome.

A voice rang through the house and it caught Cyn right as he almost drifted into a slumber. Groggily he'd reply. "Yeah. I'm here." Trying to sit himself upwards the towel on the back of Cyn's neck slipped and fell to the ground with a heavy but wet noise. On the towel was a little splotch of red, but nothing that should send Syqvara into a large panic. Now the male contemplated how he would explain the injury to her. Could he lie to Syqvara and tell her it was from training, or should he tell her the truth. For now he'd play it cool, picking up the wet towel and hanging it over the bowl of water he had laying next to the couch.

Hearing her brother's voice, Sy moved toward the main room and the couch where he was sitting. Or laying. She eyed him slightly then looked at the bowl on the floor with the rag. "Are you alright?" She was frowning now, worried that something had happened to her twin. Elyam, the scorra, had followed her and was now leaning his head around her to peer at Cyn. It seemed amazed by the fact that he looked like Sy and tilted his head curiously. Syqvara smiled at the bird and patted it's neck gently before she returned her gaze to her brother.

Looking up to see Syq's face, Cyn gave the girl a small smile. "Yeah I'm fine..." He was about to lie, say it was just a training accident. They happened all the time and it would be believable. Though before he could speak, Cyn noticed the little bird next to his sister. "First boyfriends, now pets? You're growing up too fast Sis." He tried to smile, his head moved with it and Cyn winced. He tried to play it off though. There was a pit in his stomach, lying to Syq didn't feel good but he didn't want to admit he had been outplayed. It was a matter of Pride.

Greedy Chromatic Red Scorra are the size of ostriches. XD Tis not little. She stared at him a bit longer, trying to see for herself if he was truly alright or not. When he said something about boyfriends, again, her face turned bright red. "I-I told you I don't have any..." She shifted her feet slightly. It wasn't that Sy didn't want a boyfriend, but for her it was difficult to be close to someone. Turning her attention to the bird at her side she'd give a small cough and chuckle. "Yea, he decided on his on that he was going to follow me." Running her hand down Elyam's back she'd toy with the feathers that were a dull green color. "I named him Elyam."

"Uh huh. I'm sure you don't sis, but you keep goin at this rate and you will." Cyn was half teasing, half telling the truth. "Cute gals like you tend to be snatched up quickly." Looking at the bird next to his sister, Cyn tilted his head to the side and looked the large thing over. Placing his hands on the edge of the couch, Cyn pushed off so he could stand. After doing so his body wobbled for a moment as his vision swam. Steadying himself he'd take a tentative step closer to his sister and the bird. "Where is it going to stay?" He'd ask whilst looking it over again. Cyn wanted to keep her attention on the bird for now, keep it off his head injury. He also hoped no one he knew had seen the incident that had happened earlier. Rumor would surely spread and Cyn hoped it never reached Syqvara.

Her face turned a bright red and she started to pout. With puffed out cheeks she'd give a bit of a glare to her brother. "Not true. I've only made friends. Nothing like.. that." She'd cross her arms over her chest. Syqvara eyed her brother as he stood up and seemed to sway a little. That was suspicious. Still, he distracted her with a question about the scorra as her side. "Well, I was hoping you would help me build a house outside for him." Sy chewed on her inner cheek as she hoped her brother would agree.

"That's good. Was beginning to think you were moving too fast. Wouldn't want you rushing into things and getting hurt." 'Do as I say, not as I do' popped up into Cyn's mind for a moment as he took another step forward before bending down a bit. He wanted to get a better look at the bird his sister had decided to name. "I might be able to help. Assuming mother is fine with Elyam staying. How'd you end up finding this thing anyways? Off on a secret lovers retreat with Chandra or the other one?" Now he was just teasing for the sake of teasing because he knew Syqvara wasn't doing any of this, and had made it clear they were just friends.

Greedy Chromatic Red Hrng.. gaia ate my post.. D: Quickly she shook her head. "I'm not!" How could he think that? Sy turned all kinds of red at the insinuation. She only had friends. Of course most of them she had met by accident and in her attempts not to be rude she'd spoken with them. It still amazed her that no one had teased her about her stutter yet. "I won't get hurt. Someone would have to actually like me in that way for that to happen." The one she'd developed a crush on had his eye on someone else. When the conversation moved toward her familiar she turned her head to look at the mossy green colored bird. "Remember that scorra that Ime saved me from? Well.. this is him." Her heart did a leap at the idea of being somewhere with Chandra but she ignored it. Sy knew she needed to think of him as only a friend.

"I'm sure your friends like you. Ime seemed nice enough. The other two do too, but I admit it's fun to mess with you about the boys." Cautiously Cyn extended out towards Elyam. He wanted to see what the bird would do to someone other than his sister. If he was hostile, cautious, or friendly would determine if Cyn could convince their mother to allow Syqvara to keep it. He knew his twin wouldn't abandon the bird, but if their mother accepted it, Elyam would be allowed in the house and not just outside in some makeshift house the two made. "Nice to meet you Elyam. I'm Cyn, Syqvara's twin brother. You're a nice bird ain't ya."

Sy gave her twin a very pouty look. Puffed up cheeks, narrowed eyes, and all. The fact that he could tease her so easily was both amazing and annoying. Still, she loved her brother so she quickly let go of her pout and watched him with Elyam. The bird had his head tilted, eyeing Cyn closely since he looked like Syqvara so much. When the boy reached for the bird he seemed to move his head back and away. Not in an aggressive way, but more in a "what are you doing?" type of way. For a few seconds he only stared tat Cyn before he brought his head forward to inspect the hand that was there.

Cyn kept his hand extended, and still so he wouldn't startle the Scorra. "It's alright. Not going to hurt you." He'd give the bird a quick smile before looking up at Syqvara. "Seems he really does like you. Maybe you're both alike in some ways." Turning his attention back to Elyam, Cyn kept his gaze soft as he looked at the bird. "Least he didn't bite me. That will make it easier to confront mother."

Finally willing to make contact with Cyn, the large bird leaned his head even farther. Eventually his head would rub against the hand that the boy had out. It was his way of showing affection. Sy grinned as Elyam seemed to warm up to her brother. "Now that I'm not afraid of him he is really nice." It had been her fault to begin with that things had started off on the wrong foot. She hadn't understood that he was trying to preen her hair not pull it.
