Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kohane sighed softly, laying on her belly in the soft shade of a lollipop tree. Her head was in her paws and she gave off the impression of...cheerful boredom. Marani was off somehwere, probably chasing a boy or acting like she normally did, all cool and dark.

A giggle escaped pink lips and Kohane remembered her "sister". They had so much fun together, and enjoyed playing around with everyone around them when they were together. She and her sister were so close, many mistook them for lovers, which was not the case, but the amusement of pretending to be just a little bit more never did wear off.

Now though, Kohane was alone and with nothing to do. She debated taking a nap but...eh, she didn't want to at the moment. She wanted some entertainment.

Kohane blinked widely and ooked up as she heard the sound of another approaching. Seeing the new female she smiled gently. This female didn't act much older than herself, but she carried the air of shy-fear, as if she was always questioning herself. Kohane knew about such things as that--her mother was exactly the same way.

"It's so nice to meet you!" Greeted Kohane cheerfully, smiling brightly at the other female, "I'm Kohane," She held out a paw for a shake, not wanting to move into another's space.

Kohane smiled brilliantly at her new friend, happy to finally have someone to at least talk to, even if they seemed to be incredibly shy and withdrawn. Oh, well, Kohane knew how to deal with those personalities.

"Thalassa, prefferably Thal," Repeated Kohane softly, commiting the name to memory, "I won't forget, promise!" She grinned at the light-blue girl.

"How are you today, Thal?" She asked, motioning for the other girl to sit and join her under the shade of the lollipop tree. No sense in remaining standing when shade and cool-warmth was readily available.

Kohane smiled and shook her head, "Well, you can call me 'Hane' if you like," She offered, tilting her head to the side, "But really, everyone calls me by my name," She shrugged helplessly and sat down, grinning.

"Ah, I see, I see," Murmured Kohane sagely, rubbing an invisible beard, "I kknow the feeling, actually," She confided, winking at the light-blue girl, "So there's no need to worry! Everything's fine." A gentle smile replaced the grin.

"Eventually, you get used to enteracting with others, you just have try to meet as many people as you can and learn from there." She blinked a flushed a light pink, "Sorry! I didn't mean to pry and become all "I know all about this" toward you." She glanced away, a bit embarrassed by her actions.

Kohane smiled brilliantly, "Thank you! My mother was terribly worried when she picked it out," She added confidingly, smiling softly, "She was afraid I wouldn't like it!" She giggled with amusement and happiness, "She was so happy to know that I liked it she almost fainted!" Another giggle escaped her, but it wasn't a mocking laugh. She thought her mother was the most adorable thing in the world--especially when Kohane did things that made her mother crimson with proud-embarrassment.

....Was that combination even possible?

Kohane laughed again and shook her head, magenta eyes dancing merrily, "That's a good idea! I took my whole issue the same way and look at me now!" She paued, thinking for a moment, "...Ahaha, maybe I'm not the best example, I'm a spazz." She laughed and shrugged her shoulders, "Oh, well, right?"

She grinned at Thalassa, "I'm sure that whatever you think is right for you will show you the right path to travel on." She paused, her tone had been unusually serious. She stuck out her tongue defiantly, "Nyaa! Bad Kohane! Seriousness is for serious people!" She mock-chided herself.

Oh, dear, what if Thalassa thought she was insane?

Eh. No one was perfect.

Kohane grinned at, "Of course! But Mama is always afraid or embarrassed or very, very, shy," She sighed dramatically and placed her chin into her paws, "BUt there's nothing wrong with that and it's really cute--so there's no problem at all." She giggled and rocked backward.

"Yup!! Almost fainted! She was sooo cute!" Kohane giggled more and rocked back forward, her dark wings fluttering softly.

"Spazz?" Kohane blinked and suddenly looked thoughtful, "Well," She said after a moment, "I'm not quite sure. I think it means I'm a bit erratic and hyper, always out to have fun and be unique in myself--" She shrugged helplessly, laughing, "But what do I know?" She stuck her tongue out playfully, "I'm just one girl."

Kohane paused for a moment and looked over at the light-blue girl, "You know..." She said after a moment, expression solemn, "That's sounds like something that would be really fun to do!" She laughed and rocked back and forth again, "I wish I could do that! But I have my family so..." She shrugged, "I'm content to be here." She did wish she could travel though, maybe go on some great adventures, meet and fall in love with some great prince, fantasies that would remain just that--fantasies.

Kohane laughed and shoook her head, "Hey, I don't even know if my name means anything." She stuck her tongue out playfully, "BUt I really don't care. We are, who we are and it shouldn't matter what our name is. It's just something we call ourselves. We can even change it if we like." She shrugged dismissively.

Kohane blinked and watched the other girl float up and offer to play. Laughing, Kohane spread her own magenta wings and shrugged, "Gabriel always wants to play games like that," She mused softly, smiling. Canting her head to the side she looked a bit thoughtful, "Well, yes it would be fun for me, but we should do something that's fun for the both of us. If it's not than it's not much fun to do, is it?"

Kohane smiled, and stood up. It was always easier for her to fly if she wasn't sitting. Her wings were built differently from most others and they had different advantages and disadvantages.

"You have a family?" She asked, smiling brightly, "Ooh, what are they like? I have..." She counted silently, "Four siblings, one mama and two uncles that I livewith and then there's my blood-family, where I have one sister two brothers and a papa." She grinned sheepishly, "It gets really big at family reunions." And yet they were so much fun to have.

She blinked widely at the "cottage to themselves" bit. She had little idea of what it meant. "Oh, well, our house is hardly ever empty. Uncle Ryuune is almost always there, and mama, but most of us, "young people" are gone all the time. Well, except for Hiro." A sly look entered her eyes, "But he does leave sometimes."

She clapped her paws together, embarrassed a bit by her ramblings of her family, "Sorry! I seem to have digressed for a bit. What is it you would like to play? So we can both have fun?"

"Gabriel's my older brother!" Replied Kohane with a smile, "Well, technically we're not even related to each other, but we live in the same house and we've known each other for ages so everything's okay!" A giggle, she loved her older brother Gabe, even if she sometimes thought of him as younger than her. He was that cute.

Her ears drooped slightly as the other female confessed to not knowing most of her family at all. Kohane probably wouldn't have been able to stand it--and Hiro and Gabriel only could because they had the rest of the family to be with.

"That's really sad," She replied, unsure of how to act, "Is there any way you can find out? Or do you want to find out?" There was always the possibility that the person just didn't want to know about it, but Kohane wasn't sure about her new friend.

"Being out and about is fun!" She giggled and twirled around on her feet for a moment, "But we all come home for dinner no matter what and we all hang out and be with each other before bed, so no one's really left alone. It's so much fun!" She paused and realized she'd probably said too much, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to ramble on about my family like that!" She wrung her paws together for a moment, not wanting to upset the other numa.
