mammet time

[ Bolormaa had been so proud that she'd gotten another room for her house in Shirogane - one that she'd been so hyped to set up! However, she's been spending a lot of time in there - and she'd told G'raha she'd be reading with him later. More books had come from Heaven-on-High, after all, and the two of them worked well together!

But, today, Bolormaa was still sitting in the room. It looked like a small one-person house in a single room, for... all these Wind-up Minions. But she let out a whine - because, well. ]

Yotsuyu - please stop trying to hurt Hien? I don't know what you're thinking...

[ ...She didn't even call them wind-up. ]

[There's a lot to learn- especially with the number of books that they've ended up with! Still- G'raha gets to his feet, wanting to stretch a little- and perhaps check on Bolormaa. Just in case she needs anything!

He picks his ears up, poking his head in.]

Ah- are they visiting? I didn't hear…

Oh--!!

[ Bolormaa turned, standing - holding her Wind-up Hien in her hand. Because the mammet had a little bump on its' forehead, and was struggling a little. ]

Not-- not exactly? Did I lose track of time again?

Not quite- I came a little early. Is everything all right? He looks like he's been in a little bit of trouble…

[He moves forward, to take a closer look at her Wind-up Hien.]

[ She gives a smile, letting G'raha see the Wind-up Hien. Who is pouting. ]

I thought I'd let him meet the new Wind-up Yotsuyu I got... you know, the one based on that strange deity from the other shard? [ Ah, she's taking about Tsukuyomi. ] But then, the other one tried to burn him!

[ Before this, Bolormaa hasn't talked about them like they're people. But she's pouting. ]

[oh no- he reaches out, to try and ruffle the Wind-up's hair a little, carefully.]

Oh- of course! They should all get used to each other, right? [he nods.] Ah- of course! I didn't realise they'd have them, but- maybe we can learn something? Although- if they're trying to burn each other-

Do they not like each other? The way… the others don't? [he reaches out to stroke her hair a little, now.]

[ Aw, the Wind-up gives a little smile, reaching out to hold onto G'raha! ]

Neither did I - isn't it fascinating?! And to think we can get small deliveries... [ No, no, don't get distracted as the two Wind-up Yotsuyu are still glaring up. Well, the Primal one is less glaring. ]

...I wonder how much they retain from who they were born from. I think that's what it is.

[Oh no adorable! G'raha allows it, grinning.]

Yes! Maybe we could use that to know more- to help us and them? It's good to be able to communicate! [he gives them a worried look back, tail flicking.]

That'd make sense…. Some little imprint of who they came from, to make sure they represented them well?

It is - the Crystal Tower is amazing, to be able to reach though shards... you're amazing. [ Aww, Bolormaa is letting herself get distracted. Until she's poked by the smol primal Minion, with an innocent look. ]

A memory held deep... but they're their own people. [ Yes, Bolormaa called them people - as Hien begins to try and crawl onto G'raha. ] A bit like me...

Oh- well- I'm still learning to focus it! But thank you. [he blushes, and smiles, reaching out for her.]

Of course- they're their own individuals, aren't they? As are you. [he reaches, to help support Hien, and leans forward to nuzzle Bolormaa a little.]. Even if they were made, rather than born.

[ Aw! She's gonna burrow into him - making sure Hien is between them! ] I-- I've been trying to collect one of every one - they're like...

...family. I've been collecting them as a family, G'raha.

[Oh! G'raha reaches out to wrap an arm around her, with a happy sound- still holding a hand to help support Hien.]

Heh- that's a good thought! And- with you, they can all live well together, right? It's… like what we're trying to do, isn't it? In the world.

[ This is so nice! And Hien is gonna crawl onto him, still looking down at the two ladies. But what G'raha said - it makes Bolormaa let out a soft gasp. ]

...It is, isn't it. A small version of it, perhaps, but-- if Yotsuyu isn't nice, I might need to put her up on the top of the room!

[He can get a nice perching spot on G'raha! The two ladies might, in time, if they promise not to fight- and maybe not too close, just in case.

G'raha perks up.]

Right? Mm- she'll need to behave to be with the others, right?

I didn't think we'd need a jail of any sort. But Conflict exists even in this room. [ She says, as she looks around. There's a lot of mammets, huh. Some sleeping, some watching. ]

Hopefully we'd just need it for long enough they'd learn to behave! We can help them with that, right? […this certainly is a lot though, yeah. G'raha glances over them, tail flicking.]

...I sort of wish I could be their size, to help even more... [ she can't help but say. ] But for now, I think Hien has gotten comfortable.

Do you think we could be? It'd be curious…! [his tail waves, interested.] Heh- I agree! [he reaches up to pat Hien a little.] It's quite nice to have you here, Hien!

--Huh? Well, Sir Urianger tends to have a lot of that kind of magic... you know, the sort which seems impossible. [ But Hien gives a mechanical yelp, nuzzling into the pets - before trying to climb up onto G'raha and his head. ] He-- likes us!

We could ask him, then! He's very impressive. [G'raha makes a little sound, shifting- and then stills, waiting for Hien to get intoa solid position.]. That's good! I'm glad- after all, he's yours, right?

[ And soon, the Minion has conquered the tower of G'raha! Before flopping onto hugging his ears. Bolormaa lets out a soft chuckle. ] I don't think I own him. Um, he's more like a... friend? A child? I cannot have my own--!!

[ Oh no. She... she didn't mean to say that! Embarrassed Bolormaa is gonna wiggle a little now. ]

[A worthy accomplishment! G'raha wiggles his ears to test Hien's grip, before settling- it feels rather nice!] A friend, then! Or- well!

[he reaches out to hug her, nuzzling a little.] And so- you'll care for all of them, hm?

I will. [ She says, so softly. ] I-- as I've said, they're like me. And they're not like Spoken children... I should have asked before making you a father.

[ ...Oh, Bolormaa. ]

I know you would even if they weren't. [nuzzling!]. Oh- well! It's a surprise, but- I'm glad to be here with you.

[he shifts- to kiss her forehead.]

[ Oh, you're making her blush more now, as Bolormaa lifts her head so she can kiss him on the lips!

But after the kiss, Bolormaa then seems to be back on her old train of thought. ] ...I think a nice stable box would work as a jail.

[Oh! G'raha simply thought she deserved it, returning the kiss gladly.

He purrs a little, tail curling around them.]. Oh…. [give him just a moment.] One they can't tip over too easily? Yes- that sounds good! And we don't need anything more complex, do we?

I hope not - for would they be able to fly...? I mean, those without wings. [ there is grumping from the two yotsuyu ]

Well- you wouldn't think so, right? Would we need to sort something else for them…?

[he's just going to kneel and pat them a little.]

...Closing the box! But it'll need a window... perhaps made of glass...?

[ Whoops. While the Primal one seems pleased, the Hyur one is gonna try and stab with tiny knife. Who gave her a knife?! ]

Yes! So they can still see! It might be a little tricky to put in, but I think we can manage.

[aw cute- ow. He pulls that hand back, licking the mark, before he reaches out to pick her up.] No, stop that. Where- did you take that from one of the others?

...I think it'd be better to ask Cid for assistance, then to do it ourselves. He knows how to craft better then I. [ god this is a very silly situation.

But Bolormaa lets out a gasp. ] I thought she wanted to eat with everybody--!!

All right. And we know he'll make a very good piece, after all! Maybe it would be nice to have one of your own, too?

Oh- I see! That does sound quite cute, but- why keep it…?

...We could build them a whole tiny town! [ stop getting your girlfriend distracted ]

I'd fed them earlier today. [ Bolormaa admitted. ]

Somewhere they could all explore! [this is adorable though??]

So that's when it was from…. And she could have it for the next time? But…. [He looks at Yotsuyu.] Are you going to do that again?

[ The doll looks up at G'raha. And then points the tiny knife at Hien. If the Mammet could talk, there would be a stream of swears. ] ...That seems like a no. She really doesn't like him... or, um. Perhaps it's because you touched her? I don't know much about the lady this doll is based on, I must admit.

[Well. That seems pretty pointed, and G'raha shifts back a little.] Maybe…? I think maybe we should watch them if they're near each other for a while, and- I'll respect your space. [said to the Mammet Yotsuyu.]. Should we- try to find out, then?
