Arith bounced infront of the automatic door, barking a laugh as it opened then jumpingback away so it closed, and repeating.
After about a minute of this, and a few annoyed people later, Mia grabbed him up in a hug and walked inside the mall with him in tow."Okay, thats enough."She set him down and ruffled his hair, looking around at the stores."Where do you want to go to first?"
Arith smoothed down his hair and put his hat back on, as it had fallen off.At Mia's question he grinned and looked up."The toy store!"He hurried over to the large map and stuck a finger on the spot where they were, glancing over it to find the toy store.

Red rimmed eyes stared out at the crowd. People glanced over at them, then quickly away as if it were some deadly disease. The coral eyes screwed up and tears started to leak.
With an uph, the luna moth suddenly found herself up in the air, held by her mommy. "You're getting a bit big for this," came the quiet statement, "but anything for my beautiful little girl." Sniffling, Aysel buried her head in her mommies neck. "Since you've been so good about this, I think we should go to the toy store and get you a treat. Does that sound good." Slowly Aysel nodded, not lifting her head. She didn't want to see the people looking away.
It was an odd sensation, being moved around without seeing where she was going. Finally the two stopped at the wide opening of the toy store. Carefully Tara set her daughter down, ignoring the pout that immediately formed. Latching onto her mommy Aysel stared around at the store.
The lure of toys soon had her pout dissapearing as the young child considered what would be the best to get.

Arith hurried through the mall, weaving through the crowd of people as he made his way torwards the toy store.He stopped infront of it, tail wagging and grinned, looking back at Mia followed, appologizing to people as she went, though he didn't know why."Can I get something?"
Mia stopped behind Arith, the tip of her tongue sticking out slightly as she caught her breath."Arith, I told you to stop doing that, your gonna knock someone down one day."She sat down on one of the benches that faced the toy store and ran a hand through her hair, nodding lightly."Yes, you can get one thing.Come tell me when you find what you want."
A large grin spread onto his face as he turned and darted into the store, saying a thank you over his shoulder as he did.

Knocking someone down was right. Aysel had taken no more than a few steps into the store than a black and white blur rushed past her, knocking her to one side.
Stumbling Aysel managed to keep from falling down on her behind. An embarresment she was all to happy to forgoe. Still, the sniffles returned for their cutain call. With her bright skin gone she was all to easy miss and get run over.
"Hey!" Tara called, hurrying after her daughter. "Young man!"

Arith slowed down when he heard someone call out and turned to see who it wasn, noticing a girl and someone who he assumed her mother.His ears drooped slightly and he frowned when he realized what he had done."Oh, sorry..I didn't mean to."He made his way rather slowly torwards the girl, head cocked to the side as an unsure half-smile came onto his face."Are you..okay?"

Stepping back towards her mommy Aysel nodded, "Yeah....'m 'kay," she said wiping her face, careful of the silk. Arms clasped around her as her mommy stepped up. "'Pology accepted," the luna moth added as an afterthought.
After a moment of silence Aysel shifted and offered an introduction. "'m Aysel, This is Mommy." A twitch brought the child's eyes to Arith tail, and they fastened there. How different it was from her own vestigal tail.
Tara draped her arms around Aysel, protectively guarding her daughter. A quiet stare was directed at the boy who bumped into her, flicking up and down. When Aysel introduced her, the mage smiled. "Nice to meet you," she murmmered quietly. At least the boy was taking her daughter's mind off her condition.

Arith's unsure smile turned into a grin when the girl said she was okay, and even introduced herself."Im Arith and that,"He pointed over at theCat'like woman sitting on the bench,"is my mom."
Mia blinked when her son had pointer at het, raising a hand in a silent greeting torwards the woman and her daughter, though made no move to get up and speak to them.
Arith cocked his head to the other side, looking over the girl as the odd wrapping on her.Curiosity danced in his eyes as his mouth opened slightly."Wha's that..stuff on you, it looks cool."

Aysel avoided the question of what exactly the stuff was. She wasn't quite sure and her mommy hadn't done a very good job of explaining it. She just said that when people grew up they changed and that she was going to talk to D-corp about it.
"Cool?" Aysel repeated, doubt etched on her face. "'s not. 's ugly 'nd yucky."
Disdainfully she plucked at the the silk wrappings before dropping her hands. She wasn't supposed to be picking at the brown stuff. Shaking her head at the Arith's sillyness she pointed out, "Your 'ail's cool. It moves." The child shook her bottom feeling her own 'tail' swing back and forth. Her's didn't do anything interesting.

"I t'ink its cool, you look like them..mummies."Arith nodded to himself."Ugly?Why doncha paint it?"He cocked his head to the side, still wondering what the odd wrapping like things on the girl were.
Arith looked back at his tail."It cool?It just a tail.Maybe you not got movey tail cause you got them other arms.You could do like..4 thins at once."Ge grinned, ears twitching as he thought of how cool it would be to have extra arms.

"Maybe..." Aysel admitted slowly. The idea of painting herself seemed like a pretty sound one, although her mommy didn't seem to like it. And her arms were pretty cool...
"Why don't you two go look at the toys?" Tara suggested, moving back from blocking the door. Perhaps he would be good for Aysel.

"You could paint 'em like a buncha differnt colours, like uhh, a rainbow."Arith grinned at the mention off toys."Yeah, lets go look at toys!"He took a couple bouncy steps forward and turned on his heels, beckoning Aysel forward with a hand.

"A 'ainbow..." Aysel grinned, enchanted with the idea. That'd be even better than her skin because it would be all different colors not just green. And if she really wanted she could paint it the same way it used to be. This Arith was smart..Even if he didn't know what was cool and what wasn't.
"Kay!" She followed after the boy towards the isles and isles of toys. Where to first....."'here first?"

Arith looked around the store at all the isles, head cocked to the side as he tried to think of which one to go down first.He looked over at Aysel an pointed at the isle isle infront of them."We c'n start atta the first and go down."He moved his arm from pointing at the first isle down the others to show what he meant.Then we see 'em all."

The girl nodded in agreement. That was a good plan and they'd still get to look at the dollies. She needed a new Daddy for her dolls. "'kay. 'ounds 'ood!" Aysel said, heading towards the first aisle.

Arith followed behind, thinkin more about getting to the isle with all the balls, his ears twitched at the thought of bgetting a new one, as the last one had ended up with so many teeth marks the air leaked out.He followed quickly behind Aysel, stopping at the beginning of the isle to look and see what it held.There were quite a very various puzzle boxes on a few of the shelves and other types of game and such.Arith from one to another, picking up a few to shake them."Anything good here?"
