Soft lullabies (Open-Mod)

[Jay]

Alvaro grinned lightly reading into the enthusiasm of the bird to fully understand the meaning of it. "It's quite fun~" he answered back with an easy grin. "And I tend to meet a lot of interesting people......" a lighter laugh escaped him at that as he looked for a mo0ment towards Mekura. She was interesting... in the way of a good book, kinda.... something people wouldn't fully expect but like it anyways.

After a few seconds, he chuckled again. "If you wanted~ you could come with me and see everything," he grinned. "I'm sure your mother'd be happier with someone with you too, I'd think... though then again I could be wrong...." He laughed a bit more at this thought...ah mothers....

Ring seemed to be laying on the floor now and was staring at the ceiling a tad confused for one reason or another... it seemed... really high up... .-.

[Snow Soul]

Risa listened and nodded. <It doesn't hurt to ask! Oh! I will ask.>Smiling she walked over to the Mommy Skarmory and hoped she could be convinced to let the little skarmory go with her and Mekura. <Mommy Skarmory Could maybe your um third oldest skarmory go with us?> She hoped asking worked. She really wanted the Skarmory to go with them.

Kaze chuckled at them and decided to ask the spearow if he was going to go with them. <Spearow have you ever thought about traveling?> He wondered if maybe the Pikachu would want to travel also. Mekura held the babies close to her as she listened to the others talk and move about. Closing her eyes she felt Alvaro's gaze on her then it disappeared. What had that been about?

[Caden Bunny]

The oldest smiles. He starts flying around Alvaro happily. <Yeah I'll go! She did say I could go when I wanted to so... YAAAAY!> he says happily while flying circles.

The next one was a bit afraid as it listened. <Not old enough.> she simply says, staring at Risa now.

The Spearow listens. <No. I've just been living around here.. it could be fun..> he says slowly. The Pikachu was just lying there. Pichu stirred just a bit in the scarf.

[Jay]

Alvaro grinned lightly and then seemed to pull a pokeball from his pocket and enlarge it before holding it out to the Skarmory. "It'll be fun," he chimed lightly turning his head on one side possibly to make the clip in his hair quit sliding down as it was now on the move.

Ring slowly pushed him up and then slowly walked over to the Pikachu before poking it rather tiredly before finally resolving to sit down again. Well... that was a tad odd....

[Snow Soul]

Risa blinked and wondered why he wasn't old enough. <Why? Kaiyou is a baby and she travels with us.> Risa didn't want to give up so easily. She really wanted to Travel with the Skarmory. Kaze smiled and nodded. <It is fun. Would you like to travel with Mekura and the rest of us?> Looking at the pikachu he wondered if the pokemon had fallen asleep. <Did he pass out?>

Mekura gently tucked the scarf around the pichu and rocked them slowly in her arms. Shifting slightly in her spot she listened to Risa as she tried to talk to the mommy Skarmory. If it came to it Mekura would even go over there and talked to her.

[Caden Bunny]

The Skarmory was going to hit it but he suddenly flew back and asked his mom really quickly. She told him he could Later... he hated that word. He comes back and sighs. He shook his head just a bit to show him that he couldn't come just yet. Later he would... wow he hated that word.

The bird looks at her. <He isn't old enough. Three days at the very least. He needs to get adjusted to his wings.> the mom says, not wanting to let him go any sooner than that.

Spearow listens and nods. <Sure, I'll go with ya before you go.> he says with a smile.

The Pikachu got poked and was still not responding. It... had problems the others didn't know about ._. He'd be okay...

The Pichu was then still from the rocking and curled back up with Togepi again. ._. The shell wasn't very comfy. He hoped she would lose it soon so he wouldn't get poked by it.

[Jay]

Upon seeing the frowning of the bird... or rather what he interpreted to be frowning, Alvaro frowned a little and seemed to turn his head to one side. "She said no?" he asked dryly. Ugh parents... he wasn't about to get into that sort of argument of sorts unless he could finish it quickly. Ring blinked and continued to relax a bit and even yawned rather tiredly. He wanted a nap.. but was kind of...unsure of it.....

[Snow Soul]

Risa wasn't about to give up! Traveling was valuable experience for any pokemon! Tapping he hand against her side she tried to think this through. She didn't want to get the Mommy Skarmory mad. Looking her in the eye she thought about it some more. <Couldn't he get used to his wings while Traveling? Mekura and the rest of are leaving before the three days are up to go to the haunted Grove. Plus Traveling is very good experience for young pokemon.>

Kaze grinned and nodded his head. <Then when Risa is finished with the Skarmory you can get her to talk to Mekura. I'm pretty sure Mekura will love having you. She just loves pokemon any size and age.> Looking back at the Pikachu he tilted his head. <I don't think he's ok.> Maybe they should get Mekura down here. Togepi in her sleep felt something cuddle against her so she easily decided to just cling to the other baby.

Kaze glanced at the sleepy Ring and pointed in Mekura's direction. <If you want...You can take a nap against Mekura. She won't mind. In fact she encourages Naps.> Of course Mekura would encourage naps since she had a baby pokemon she was looking out for. Well sometimes Mekura liked to take naps herself but usually up in a tree.

[Caden Bunny]

The older one looks at him. <She said LATER! I hate that word T_T She doesn't want me to leave until later today...> he mumbles lowly. The mother was still shaking her head no. <He's only the third oldest! He can't leave yet! When are you leaving?> she asks slowly. She really didn't want to let her babies go off with strangers T_T

Pikachu was still out of it. Pichu was cuddled up with Togepi who was clinging onto him. Spearow smiled. <Yay! I'll go ask her before she leaves.> Spearow says.

[Jay]

Alvaro would have laughed if he could. However, it had partially stabbed him the wrong way as he knew a bit too well how protective parents were. "Well we could stick around until this 'later' business is up... I'm pretty free to wandering around the area a bit more," he said putting his hands on his hips and leaning forwards closer to the Skarmory.

"Ya know what I did?" he asked with an obscure smile on his face. "I ran away from home." And this was true, pretty much. Freedom had been calling him, and Alvaro wasn't going to let his mother stop him. "Though that was my choice," he finished before standing full again. "Because I had a few things....eh...." he rolled his shoulders a bit trying to find the word but eventually giving up.

Ring seemed to ponder this thought for quite some time before finally shaking his head a bit. <I'm ok....> he answered back with a lighter smile. <I don't want Alvaro to think I'm a baby.....> he sighed a little.

[Snow Soul]

Risa perked up a bit as the Mother Skarmory seemed to want to know more. Nodding her head she conferred with Mekura really fast. <Either tomorrow or Today. She's not quite sure yet. She doesn't like to be around large crowds of people, but she loves being around pokemon.> Smiling she looked over at Mekura and noticed the Pichu was cuddling with Kaiyou. Maybe the Pichu would go with them.

Mekura listened to Alvaro's side of the conversation and chuckled. It was amazing what some kids did to explore. Mekura had had no choice. Her mother had died before she could tell her daughter no. Some say she was lucky but Mekura just wished she had her mother back. Too late to be sad now. Kaze blinked and just grinned. <Mekura would be on your side. She would probably say she convinced you to take a nap or something of the like.> Kaze glanced at pikachu and tilted his head. <How bout you go take a nap near Mekura. You would probably feel better.>

[Caden Bunny]

The older Skarmory listens. He seemed a bit interested in this story. He didn't quite understand the ending, but he was thinking about running away himself. No... that would be dumb T_T He couldn't do that. He'd wait until later to leave... whenever that might come.

The mother Skarmory shook her head. <He's not going. I won't let you steal away all of my babies that aren't ready to go yet!> she says, starting to sound a bit angry. It would probably be best not to keep on that subject much longer.

Pichu was still sleeping. Pikachu was still out of it. The Spearow was just resting it's wings now. It got pretty tiresome... always having to flap your wings to get around.

[Jay]

Alvaro seemed to nod his head in a quiet understanding of sorts and seemed to reach up and pat the Skarmory on the neck. "Do you know the way around here?" he asked with a light grin on his face wondering if he could get a tour or something (not like he really really needed one but eh.. it would be kind of fun at least).

Upon hearing the irritated sounds from the mother Skarmory, Alvaro sighed dryly and rubbed his temples. "You're going to crush them that way," he said rather dryly feeling not full irritation but a dry sense of understanding to which he highly disliked under most circumstances. "Maybe you should try a battle and prove to your mother that your strong," he suggested shrugging his shoulders as though he weren't truly fully for the idea but more or less making some sort of suggestion to try and suit the needs of the moment.

Who was he to deal-..........Well......actually he was pretty close to the type of person at least who could deal on circumstances of such things, yet he didn't want to get his hands dirty on things so to speak (especially seeing as he wasn't planning on repainting his nails any time soon).

Ring seemed to think about the words and finally seemed to nod. Getting up carefully, he started off towards the girl rather slowly more or less hoping that he'd be able to reach her without Alvaro noticing.

[Snow Soul]

Risa sweat dropped at her tone and word choice. <No! I just want to Travel with your son.And why do you get to say whether they are ready or not? Besides how does a blind person steal from a great steel bird like yourself?> Risa was getting irritated at this point. Why were mother's so stubborn? Mekura wasn't like this and she had practically raised Risa. Huffing out a breath she eyed the mother skarmory wary.

Kaze stretched out his legs and watched Ring slowly make his way toward Mekura. Of course Mekura was one you could easily go to sleep with. Sighing he got up and picked the Pikachu up taking him over to Mekura. He wondered how long the pikachu would be out of it. It seemed like he was already passed out.

Mekura heard Ring walking toward her as she patted the spot right next to her. She could fell the sleepiness coming off him as she smiled softly at him. His slowness was probably not needed for Alvaro seemed rather occupied with the Skarmory.

[Caden Bunny]

The Skarmoy nods. <I know this entire tower inside and out.> he says with a smile. He started walking slowly to take him on a tour.

The other Skarmoy sighs. Oh well... he tried. He ended up lying on the ground to take a nap. =( The mother was starting to get furious at this point. <YOU WILL NOT TAKE HIM UNTIL HE IS OLD ENOUGH! Get away... now.> she says, showing pure hatred at the end with her threat.

Pichu was scared by the loud screeching and yelling from the bird that he squirmed around a lot and covered his ears. Pikachu was still downstairs.. completely out of it. Spearow was keeping and eye on him.

[Jay]

Alvaro slowly followed after the Skarmory who was starting the tour but stopped when he found his ears ringing. All but as a reflex, the green haired man found his hands over his ears, and for a moment, his eyes had scrunched together. Oi... someone was angry... The noise from the mother Skarmory was enough to make him mildly irritated for...............a good few seconds. However, after said seconds were over, he simply found himself smiling again and following after the Skarmory again.

Ring had come in at an odd point, and as the Mother Skarmory shouted, he stared completely dumbfounded and confused. <Hey wait what's going on?> he asked now oddly fully awake more or less on instinct rather than what he truly wanted of the deal.

[Snow Soul]

Risa glared at the mother Skarmory as she tried to threaten her. She would not be threatened. Not by an over protective mother. The reason of not old enough was bologna. <I've been traveling since before you had your batch here. Don't think you can threaten me. Your just an over protective mother and your being selfish!! The world offers more then dangers. It offers experience and friends!!>

Mekura looked up at the screech from the mother skarmory. Shaking her head she rubbed the pichu's ears gently to soothe them. "Mother Skarmory you have babies of your own. Keep your screeching to a min! Risa quit antagonizing her!" Her own ears were ringing from the screech. More then likely she would end up with a headache.

Risa looked over at Mekura and saw her no non-sense look. Sighing she gave the mother Skarmory once last look and went over to Mekura. The Mother skarmory was just plain selfish is what she is. Sitting on one of Mekura's legs she peaked in over Mekura's arms to see if her getting the momma Pokemon mad had woken either of them.Togepi of course was sleeping soundly. She was used to things getting loud when Risa was playing games. Or trying to get Hana to play in the snow.

[Caden Bunny]

Upon going towards the stairs and up another layer, the Skarmoy suddenly stopped. <Wait... that's... This... is the Golurk's territory!> the Skarmory says, flying back down the steps. You really didn't want to go up there ._. The Mother was starting to get angry at them and was now taking a stance. It'd be best if they were all quiet for now ._. Pichu was squirming a lot but slowly stopped as his ears were massaged. Suddenly he started giggling to himself.

[Jay]

The green haired man blinked in confusion as he watched the Skarmory suddenly fly back. "Hm?" he asked blinking lightly and turning his head to one side. "What's wrong?" he asked after a few more seconds. He hadn't understood the translation, and now his curiosity was getting the better of him. He slowly took another step up the stairs.

Ring sweat dropped in confusion as he watched all the tension in the air. After a few seconds, he seemed to suddenly smirk and released a Telekinesis on just about anyone and anything in that thirty foot radius. It was a heck of a feet to say the last of it, but the psychic was determined to make people relax and have fun.... by floating... eh... maybe Ring wasn't the brightest candle on the porch.

[Snow Soul]

Risa looked over at the mother Skarmory and stuck her tongue out like a little baby again. The mother was irritating her. Hearing Pichu giggle she looked over and wondered why he was laughing. Mekura could help but smile as the Pichu started giggling. He really was very ticklish. Giving his ears one last rub she moved her hand just before she started floating in the air. She slightly panicked for a second before realizing it was Ring's doing. Smiling she held the two babies close so they couldn't float away.

Risa blinked then grinned as she was lifted into the air. Floating over to Ring she used Telekinesis on him so he could float around also. Floating around was fun. Floating over to Mekura she tugged her gently around to let her float a bit. Ring was pretty good at using telekinesis.
