Welcome to Gaia! ::

Who: Cian, James & Bloom (TheMadHatter)
Blithe & Bloom (Skye Starrfyre)
Where: The Loft
When: Before Zoe's brought home by Chesh.


She had known from the start that the silence wouldn't last long... Eventually Cian would have to break the news to James that there was someone else in his life. Two other someones, actually... And that they'd both be coming home soon; a father and daughter who had spent the last week at the hospital with various tests being run and rests being forced to make sure that one was healthy (Zoe) and that the other would make it through the first year (Chesh, who hadn't been sleeping much prior to delivery and wouldn't be sleeping much after) once they were both sent home.

Carefully she lifted the tiny pot that she'd set her bloom upon, bringing it up level with her eyes. "Now... You might hear some yelling soon, but it'll be alright. Afterall, yelling can't go on forever. Eventually James will loose his voice." She nodded slowly, reacing a slender finger out to gently trace the bloom's petal.

"You're very beautiful, you know. Will you be ready to come out and see the world soon?" She was used to the silence that responded to her little talks... To the soft echo of her voice in the room where she sang to the flower. Soon enough though, she was certain that she'd have someone to talk back... Someone who might even sing along with her.

"I'll have to think of a name for you, you know..."

"C'mon... Let's go find something to eat. I'm hungry." She nodded as she brushed past the disorganized chaos that was her room to the door. She paused before opening, brow furrowing slightly as she listened to the sounds on the other side.

"That noise? Is James. I'm sure that you'll find it easy to avoid him once you have legs and arms... And wings? Do you think you'll have wings like his?" Her head tilted as she looked down to the bloom. "Either way, I'm sure you'll be able to avoid him. He's rather unpleasant."

She felt silent for a moment, listening on before emerging from her room, smiling face seeming to add to the radiance of light in the living room. "Hello, Cian. James. How are the two of you today?"

"I had to come out sometime." She smiled almost sheepishly, gently setting the pot containing her bloom on the coffee table before taking a seat on the couch next to Cian. "I'm doing well and..." She glanced down at the bloom. "... I think it's doing well. At least, it's responding to the light rather well and it doesn't seem to mind little drops of water from time to time. "

Her oddly colored eyes then drifted to the only Feien in the room that was capable of response, one brow raising ever so slightly. "You know... If you smiled a bit more and complained a bit less I'm certain that people would pay more attention to you. Have you ever thought of it that way, James?" He probably hadn't. She wouldn't have been suprised if he hadn't.

"You shouldn't throw things. It's not nice." Her eyes narrowed as she reached down with the idea of plucking James up by his wings in order to hold him up closer to her face. She did decide against it after a moment though, pulling her hand back to sit on her lap.

After a moment of silence she turned towards Cian, biting down on her lower lip in a way that made her seem quite young. "Chesh isn't going to like him, you know... Not that he'll care for Chesh much either. He doesn't care for much, does he?"

"Maybe not a cage right away..." She giggled, that sound giving her an even more 'girlish' appeal. "I think it all depends on James' attitude. Especially around Zoe..."

It was very easy to talk to Cian and, even though she felt a bit bad about it, it was just as easy to ignore James and his outbursts. Of course, this next one might not be all that easy to ignore. "Cheshire is Cian's husband. Cian... Maybe you should explain this to him as you are his bond." Maybe James would take it a bit easier that way. Doubtful, but maybe.

She winced, pulling her knees up to her chest and resting her chin against them. "Really. There's no need for such wailing. None at all." She shook her head slowly, torn between holding onto her knees and covering her ears...

In the end, it was moving to pull her bloom's pot up onto her lap to keep it away from James' tantrum that won out. "Don't worry. He won't be like this always. At least, I hope he won't. He has to calm down eventually. Afterall, Chesh and Zoe do live here as well."

A thought then came to her mind. "Cian... Think we should tell them all about the rest of the family now too? There are so many of them... Not including my family. I miss them sometimes, you know."

"There's Loc, Gwirionedd, Lledrith, Coeth... They all live here with Cian, Chesh, Zoe, you, the two blooms and I... There are others too, but they don't usually leave my room." She paused for a moment as if to catch her breath before continuing on. "Skye and all of her family, there are alot of them... Hatter and all of her family. Oh! And can't forget about Erian Paun and Haikaido."

She let her breath out with a contented sigh. "Was that everyone, Cian? Everyone that's here, at least. I didn't think it would matter to name those who were here before but aren't anymore. Because this is a different where." So what if she didn't make any sense... She didn't always have to, did she?

"Of course, everyone in the family is important in their own way." She nodded, smile tugging at the corner of her lips. At this time it would have been hard to tell who she was talking to; Cian, James or her bloom. "Time is made for everyone and everyone gets taken care of... They just have to realize that there are others who are involved in our every day lives."

She then glanced down at James one more, feeling a slight pang of 'sorry'... Or was it just that hunger she'd been feeling earlier. "Did you make lunch, Cian?"
