The day was hot. Most of the children on the playground were running around with super soakers to keep cool, or were lying in the shade playing little paper games.
Cephas didn't understand it. He was as comfortable as he'd ever been! This weather was great for him. While Josie was busy with some silly job interview, he'd been left to play at the park. Rather bored of the card playing, and preferring to not get his wings all wet, he stuck to playing on the swings. Playing alone wasn't ideal, but he wasn't one to sit still for long!

A thirty something year old man was in a polo shirt and shorts, seeming miserable in this heat. He wiped sweat off his brow and took a pokeball from his pocket. "You'll be even more miserable out here, with all that fur," he muttered aloud. "But I promised. Come on out!" The pokeball burst open, releasing a furret. The creature promptly ran around the perimeter of the place place, attention landing on the swings. Well there! That person looked unbothered by the weather enough to play with him! He stood on his hind legs. "Can I play?"

He swung higher and higher, enjoying the only time his heavy body ever felt light. Of course, the prospect of a new friend could pull him from any fantasy. Halting his momentum digging his heels into the ground, he looked around for the owner of the voice. Oh! A pokemon!
"Sure!" he happily accepted. Though, he looked over at the neighboring swings, and back at the furret. "Did you wanna swing? I can push if you want."

Eirian seemed to be a bit cautious about getting onto the swing. Was he too big? Would he be able to hold on properly? He climbed onto the swing after a moment's consideration. "Okay," he said, wiggling slightly to ensure he was on the swing securely. "How do you play on these?"
Allen neared the swings, watching the two. Huh. He'd found a kid to play with, good. He sent a smile in Cephas' direction. "It's his first time at the park," he said.

Cephas smiled as the furret climbed up onto the swing. He hadn't thought about the pokemon's shorter limbs despite the overall size. Considering how short his own arms had once been, he could sympathize.
Looking over at the human, he smiled excitedly. "Oh, you should come to the park more! It's lotsa fun!" Looking back to the furret, he pulled the chains in for the little paws to grab. "Here. You just hold onto these. I can get you started, but then you can use your own weight to swing back and forth!" Scooting behind, he grabbed the chains, easily pulled the swing back, and made sure to simply let go rather than push. "Hold tight!"

"I want to come every day!" Eirian said. "He goes to work a lot though, and I can't go with." He took the chains, blinking. So he held onto these? "So I don't fall?" He asked. He was pulled back and released, and was delighted by the movement.
He forgot Cephas' suggestion to use his body weight to keep the swing going, instead marveling at the feeling of air hitting his fur. This was fun!

Cephas smiled brightly when he saw the furret's delight. Giggling, he hopped back to his own swing. "I always use the swings at least once when I come here," he stated, legs swinging to get his own momentum going.
Sometimes, he still enjoyed simply looking at his arms and legs. How long they were compared to during his pokemon form was an endless delight. Perhaps something that would be taken for granted later, but, for now, it was a treat to savor. "My mama's at a job- um.. job... inter-hew, so I can show you whatever you want to play on until she comes back."

"Jobs are boring," Eirian informed Cephas, matter of factly. He used his body to swing himself back and forth, delighted at the feeling. Was this what flying pokemon felt like, all the time? If so, he envied them their wings.
"He works in a lab, my trainer does. He's great. But jobs are boring. I like the pretty girl best. She makes airplanes out of paper."

"Are they? Uncle Roger says he likes his job. Maybe his is fun? ..I guess mama doesn't really want a job, so you're probably right." Uncle Roger loved his work, but the Furret did have a point. He'd heard quite a few say their jobs were dull...
"A lab? Airplanes made of paper? Cool! Does he like his job?"

"I think he does," Eirian said, thinking about it for a moment. "He likes being home too, with me, though. He really does. He brought me here!" The furret's tail puffed in excitement. "Swing with me, you. We can race!"

"That was nice of him! I usually come a lot, but mama brought me today while she's doin' stuff." Carefully climbing back onto his swing, Cephas gave the Furret a bright grin. "How we racing? We can't go anywhere on a swing!"

"Whoever goes highest fastest wins!" Eirian explained, enthusiastically. Hadn't Cephas ever raced? He'd said he came a lot. He started to swing a bit higher, moving back and forth. "Like this!"

"Oooh!" Cephas grinned and nodded. He could do that!
Unfortunately, he heard his name called. He looked around, and spotted mama waving to him. It was time to go. "We'll have to race another time. Come back to the park again soon!" Hopping down from the swing, he waved and hurried off to head home.
