Saga dangled his feet in the water, laughing as the fishes swam away at his every movement. He was glad that he could find a lake where they actually allowed people to go into the water. Father had called it a 'Wading Pool', but he still found that it looked like a small lake. The water was shallow as well, and he had fun splashing water onto everyone else.
The sun was really hot, but the water felt cool, so it didn't really matter.

It had grown to a point of sheer mystification on behalf of Jamie. He would set out on a journey of relaxation, and he would find himself carrying an infant - of which brought him anything but the peace of which he sought. He would be chaotically swamped with the idea of questions or comments. Oh what a cute baby, but what are those on his head. What is his name? Where are you from? Apparently, there was something utterly fascinating about the idea of a baby ... With antennas.
Yet Jamie had not been left distraught! With careful planning he had found a place of which he was unhassled - unheard of - and not capable of being extensively seen. Still he had the baby, and still he remained tired, amazed, but filled with the slight lack of enthusiasm. Late hours into the night he would awaken to the sound of the child's laughter or tears. When he went to work, he would need to balance things ridiculously.
A break. Oh how he needed a break! But, was it too much to ask for?
As he strolled along the way, something in particular caught his eyes. A boy - a small boy. With that, he paused - the weird memory of Aure having appeared to him once before in a lone sort of manner. Wary of the idea of interaction, he had began to pass, but Sarin had stopped him by leaning out of his hold and reaching for Saga - emitting a loud noise in an attempt to draw attention.

It was interesting to note that while the place itself was fairly noisy in general with random cries and laughter, a sudden loud outburst could easily capture attention. For example, the cry of someone near him caused Saga to turned around in response. It came almost naturally to him, perhaps as a nature reflex.
He saw a baby in the arms of a man... And the baby seemed to be reaching for something. Mystified, Saga looked to his left and to his right before it dawned on him; the baby was probably reaching out to him. The natural reflex of turning around had came about, because the baby's cry was directed at him, and he had probably unconsciously felt it.
He blinked for a moment, before slowly standing up. The floor was much too slippery for him to risk being quick. Walking over in a slightly faster pace, Saga reached out and touched the baby's hands with his. He shook it gently, and let out a shy smile as he nodded.
"Hello there," He greeted both the man and baby, although his eyes were on the child rather than the guardian.

Jamie had been a bit flustered by the action. It seemed as if he were running into people left and right since Sarin's over-all appearance. The strange girl he would never quite understand always left an imprint of 'why me?' within his mind. Although, he supposed there was no clever answer or witty excuse for why things had happened the way they had. They simply had happened ... And life had started getting harder as the result. Complicated. Confusing.
His mind swimming in a daze, he had stared at the boy for a short period of time before clearing his throat and emitting a word. "Hi?" His voice had crooned in the wrongful manner of inquiry. His face twisting at the word, he had simply looked down at Sarin as if to direct a tacit question to the Baby. "Curious little guy ..." He'd spoken with great hesitance, as if he were not sure the words were proper.
Sarin had no intention of paying heed to any nervous stares or description comments. He had found something to latch onto for the time - and, for once, it was not contained within his world. It was reality's. Gurgling a little, the boy had made a hand motion for hello. A toothless smile had been given with a ridiculous nod of his head following in suit.

"You said hi!" Saga exclaimed, the smile on his lips widening. Playing by himself was never as fun as playing with a partner... And a partner was just standing in front of him, waiting to have fun with! However, this one was rather... Lacking in size. Would he drown if he goes into the wading pool?
"Excuse me, what's his name?" Saga asked curiously, looking up at the adult. He assumed that this man must be the baby's father, and added, "I'm Saga."
{Sorry for being so slow with replies... ^^;;}

Jamie had seemed slightly skeptical by Sarin's actions. The boy was fluttery and sociable, consistently challenging Jamie's desire for a calm and quiet outing. His days never seemed mundane or limited when he took the boy out. Every day brought a surprise and a new acquaintance. Even work occasionally seemed more lively when the baby was brought in and settled into a booth where he could keep a sharp eye out for him while waiting the tables.
Smiling feebly over the entire ordeal of spontaneous happenings, Jamie had looked down at Sarin. "Yeah. Hi." He had repeated before moving on. Name? Name. His name or... No. The Baby's. "Sorry to bother you ... Saga. He just has an interest in everyone he sees." Jamie had laughed nervously before touching the baby's nose with a finger. "His name's Sarin."

"Sarin." Saga repeated, his lips curved upwards in a boyish grin, "Hey! Both our names start with the alphabet 'S'! Saga and Sarin!"
He let out a soft laugh, somehow finding that a little amusing. Well, maybe it wasn't that amusing, but Saga had to say something to lighten the atmosphere. Although the baby was relaxed, Saga felt a little awkward talking to his guardian. Giving a pause, he continued, "Uh... How should I address you?"
