The airport really wasn't that difficult to find, but one might pass it a dozen times a day and not give it a second thought. Pippin greets people at the entrance, makes small talk, and ushers everyone with a ticket to the boarding gate. A blonde woman takes everyone's luggage and grudgingly packs it up on trollies, every once in a while disappearing out a separate exit to unload it onto the plane.
"Welcome, welcome~! So glad you could take the time out of your schedules and come!" Pippin chimes as he shakes someone's hand, looking absolutely perky.

Ice looked a little frayed as she finally showed up. Oblivion had kept making the alarms go off at the entrance of the airport and it had taken a heck of a lot of fast talking to prove that she was actually a living being. Finally they had scanned the poor thing. Oblivion was NOT in a good mood. Especially when one of the people suggested she might be better off put in a "large animal" crate. Ice had stopped that one, barely.
Walter, on the other hand, seemed to have a thing for female airport workers, especially the ones in skirts. He was staring as one of the blondes leaned over to take a bag. "Pink." He said, pointing.
"No, sweetie, that's blue." Ice said.
"He was talking about her panties." Silva said from where he was perched on her shoulder. The feien smirked around his toothpick as Ice groaned loudly.

They had somehow managed to survive the cab ride from her house to the airport, and despite the calm expression on the red-head's face, she was actually quite rattled. Haze had hoped she packed enough clothing for both herself and her two charges. She had wanted to bring Retta along, but the Mishap preferred to stay behind for some reason. She only briefly recalled hearing the little sheep girl mention her cousin 'Las.
Everything was going well, until Habi managed to knock over several trollies carrying luggages. Elias laughed at the mimicry of the game dominos, Habi was always doing silly things to amuse him. Haze did her best not to lose her temper and cause a scene with Habi, the daemon was doing a bang up job of that by herself. Huni accompanied them, if only to bring the bags for Haze and Elias.
It took several apologies, and several amounts of currency to clear up the mess and it took a promise of making Habi wear a leash before they could enter the rest of the airport. She spotted Pippin and couldn't help but notice Oblivion, after all a metallic beast wasn't something she often saw.
"We're not late, are we?" She asked, approaching Ice after she made sure Huni had given their luggage to the blonde woman near Pippin.

Raya arrived shortly after Ice and Haze, waving fondly with one arm. Fray was strapped very unhappily to Raya’s chest, in one of those infant font-packs. The purple-haired girl had always thought the things looked ridiculous and she would never submit her child to such cruel and unusual suffering, but the packs proved to be quite useful. Lavender, however, was far unhappier in the small carrying crate that was on top of Raya’s large carry-on bag. The airport security had insisted that, unless they wanted to ship Lav in the baggage cart, that she be put in one of ‘live animal’ cages. Seeing as separation from Fray would be quite impossible, Lav had to deal with the lesser of two evils. Needless to say, the already ill-tempered rat was body slamming the cage and scratching furiously at the plastic. The usually docile and amiable Fray was in something of a foul mood due to his other half’s discomfort. Her bag wheeled to the side, throwing the small girl off balance slightly. Raya gratefully handed her luggage to the blonde woman, glad to be rid of the extra burden.
“Hello there!” She panted, a little out of breath as she jogged up to the group with Lavender’s carrier in hand. It was no bigger than a purse, although far less fashionable and, well, with a very angry rat inside. “Nice to see you again Pippin, Haze,” Raya greeted, nodding to them respectively. Although the last time she had seen Pippin she was not in a totally sane mental state, due mostly to the House’s antics, she was still very happy to see them both. “I see Elias is doing well, and hello there Habi!” Raya exclaimed, jumping up slightly to catch Fray’s attention. “Look, Fray, wanna say hello to your old friends?”
Fray glanced at Habi, Elias and Haze with a recognizing stare. His expression softened, obviously happy to see them, but it didn’t deduct from the fact he was still very uncomfortable without his furry rodent wrapped around his neck. “Fweet~” He blew from his whistle softly as some sort of greeting.

Ice looked up from where she was trying to explain that people didn't like having their panties stared at, much less discussed at such a loud tone, and smiled. "I hope not. The green haired fellow is here, though, so I figure we're not." She pointed at Pippin, who was easily found in a crowd if you had seen him before.
"My name is Ice, this is Walter, Oblivion and Silva." She introduced herself. She hadn't met these two groups so far. Such cute--well... furry, feathery, non-metalic daemons! "You're all going on the Forgotten Document's vacation, right?"

Tomato-hued ears twitching with nervous energy, Quinn made her way to the airplane amidst the others. Flying wasn't something she necessarily looked forward to, so her usual happy-go-lucky demeanor was a little tarnished. Indeed, it had been ever since Sevan and Sensations had come to reside in her home. Being a mother made her jumpy.
The aforementioned pair floated about in a mass of wings and blankies, somewhere in the vicinity of Quinn's ears; kept in tow by a harnass and leash, the end of which was held firmly in the fox-woman's grasp. Quinn's eyes darted from the airborne pair to the plane and back again in rapid succession, sure that if her eyes left Sevan and Sen long enough, they would be sure to get into some kind of trouble.

Lysium had crossed her small arms and pouted while her small body was shaken by the trembling run of her father. Faiga was quite out of breath and his eyes were flickering around nervously. The small black cat on his head, who scratched him constantly, didn't help to stop this.
He had never been to an airport before. Muttering a hello he looked at the blonde woman and handed her his luggage. Lysium watched everything with interest, but still seemed pretty distressed about this kind of procedure. Shiver enjoyed it a lot though.
As soon as he spotted other daemon he meowed a "Hello !."

"Not late at all!" Pippin responds, offering to help with luggage as people arrive. All he does, however, is drop it down on the carts the blondes continue to load and unload, and earns a glare from one of them that he completely ignores.
Instead, he smiles brightly at Raya, but is quickly distracted by the increase in foot traffic. He raises his hands and points in the direction of the boarding gate, humming a song as he swings his arms.
Another blonde woman stands ready at the gate to check passes.

The three individuals walked through the ussual proceedures, except for the lack of baggage. Rogue Dragon smiled at that. True, he and his dragon could go where ever they wanted without the use of planes, but niether had a clue where the destination is to be. The fact that they were to be using a plane to travel didn't meant they would have any bags, except the one RD is carring filled with snacks and such.
Hoshiryuu wouldn't have bothered to use the plane at all, but Cho could use the company. Though true that RD was technically her guardian, the half-elf and porcelain acted more like mentor and student. As such, they got along, but weren't the closest of beings. Hoshiryuu on the other hand had spent the mojority of the last year or two with the juust over two feet tall lady, and one of her best friends. For her the small dragon would put up with the flying contraption, though a disgrace to any dragon not to fly by their own wings.
Cho stuck close to RD. His magic holding off the majority of the emmotions trying to flood her mind. With him near, she only felt those near-by, instead of the hundreds of others. She didn't quite understand how a non-empath could shield emotions, but she is quite glad to have his protection at the moment. Her focus on the emotions and thoughts threatening to engulf her if she strayed distracted her from her normal issues with dealing with humans, for the moment.
Looking around she couldn't really see much besides the countless knees at her eye level. They passed the metal detectors and RD found the terminal, but she hadn't seen anysign of those she;d met at the house. Well, really she had only met a couple of those people, but she had seen several of them at the different activities held at the house.
A moment latter the crowds split giving her the sight of children with creatures and adults near-by. Tugging on RD's sleeve she points them out to him.

Haze smiled warmly at Raya "You're joining as well? Wonderful! I worried that we wouldn't know anyone here." She was relieved that there were familiar faces joining them.
"It's a pleasure to meet all of you." She nodded before introducing themselves. "I'm Haze Wyndre, this is Elias Injo and Uninhabited. And yes, we are joining this vacation, it seems there are more Forgotten Documents than I had guessed." Her tone was neutral, neither happy nor displeased.
"I'm looking forward to this little getaway as well as becoming more acquainted with all of you."
Elias' anxiety of being in a very foreign place seemed to disappear upon seeing Fray. A wide grin preceeded what was an attempt at waving his arms in greeting. And then he spotted Lysium and his grin became larger, his friends were here!
As the group increased, Elias couldn't decide who to focus his attention on. On the one hand, he knew Fray and Lysium. On the other, Walter, Oblivion, Sen, Sevan, and the others were new faces and they all looked so interesting! "Geeeee!!!" he gurgled, as if greeting everyone.
Habi was tugging at the leash while keening pitifully. When she noticed Fray and his guardian arrive, she quickly scanned for Lav and she released an almost horrified squawk at her plight. No nice! she declared to Elias before responding to Shiver with a happy chirp. "Hi hi hiiiii!!! Lav not happy." she told Shiver, gesturing to the caged daemon with one of her wings.

The loudspeaker crackles and a man's voice breaks through the fuzz. "Now boarding flight 218, please report to boarding gate G6, flight 218, leaving in ten minutes, flight 218.."

"We'll have to talk on the plane, though." Ice said with a grin as she tugged both Walter and Oblivion to the boarding gate, following the crowd onto the plane as Walter grinned cheerfully up at the woman at the boarding gate, waving as they passed her, then blowing a kiss.
'Would you stop flirting? We don't have time.' Oblivion grumbled, only to get a pat on her head in response.

Quinn shuffled her way up the stairs, tugging on the leash every few moments to make sure the fluttery pair followed in her wake. Once onboard, she tossed her carry-on into the overhead compartment, using one hand and her head so she didn't have to relinquish control over Sev and then began pulling the girl down to her.
Grasping the winged-child firmly, she placed her in the provided child safety seat and buckled her in, grateful for the momentary break from leash duty. Hopefully, Sen wouldn't be able to figure out how to open all the buckles. Oh dear. What if Sen could figure out how to open all the buckles?!
Tail poofing in worried concern, Quinn sat down quickly next to her charges, eyes fixated on the buckles. Sevan just smiled up at her, innocent as could be, and gummed a bit at Sensations' tail, drool streaming down her sun-darkened chin.

A thought occurs to ROgue Dragon, perhaps with those children having animal companions they might think Cho is one with Hoshiryuu as a companion. Whether or not that is the case the emotional shielding should be done by the dragon seeing how the dragon will be with her more. Nobody here should find that at all odd. With a quick thought toward the dragon they switched who held the spell in place.
Cho noticed a slight difference but it was gone quickly. Looking at RD she queried himabout it. Nothing wrong. Well, that would keep her from having to close her mind, so she is naturally curious. Before she can ask for more details, she is pulled and pushed along by her two companions toward the lady checking tickets and then through some tunnel. Next thing she knew, they were in the plane taking seats near the others of the group. She forgot about the odd feeling. THis is her first time on a plane. RD is perfectly calm, but the dragon is hiding a dislike of planes. Not knowing dragons well enough to know the reason, she wonders about that and the plane ride.
