I'll be home as soon as I can, don't die and if it's a bug I have to burn you alive
[He's not sorry for this.
Rosso will be back in about 45 minutes, having cut the trip in half because haha motorbike go brrrr and speedlimit goes ignored. When he gets there, he parks and enters their temporary house...
[Honestly that would be fair, Adrian probably wouldn't stop you if you did Rosso-
When Rossso does return, he'll at least find that his boyfriend is alive, just...looking very frazzled. There's a couch in here, which he's taken upon himself to sit in the middle of, sitting very still with his paws gripping his knees. He's trying not to move, because every time he does, he can feel something snuggle deeped into his hair and it's freaking him out.
He looks over at Rosso without moving his head, speaking through gritted teeth.]
Get- get over here and look at my neck- it's...somewhere in there.
[Rosso quite literally pulls his lighter out of his pocket and sets it on the back of the couch within arm's reach, just in case it really is a bug. A really fucking big bug. Oh god. He can see the hair of Adrian's mane moving... oh god there's gonna be a whole-ass spider in there, or a hornet's nest. Hhh.
Bravely, he digs his hands into Adrian's mane and starts digging around. His hand immediately bumps into something the size of both his hands combined, round and soft... and it peeps.]
What the fuck. Are you keeping baby chicks in your hair?
[Pulls it out... it is not a baby chick holy shit]
[Adrian can't turn and easily see what on earth it is because whatever it is insists on staying as close to the warmth of his neck as it possibly can. He can just feel it moving, as he has been this whole time, which he hates.]
No, the fuck? She held out some kind of...black...thing, and before I could see what it was it jumped on me!
[And, well. Rosso isn't entirely incorrect in his assumption. It isn't a baby chick, but it's not....NOT a baby chick.
It's soft, round, and sits in the palms of his hands looking up at him with the largest eyes possible, the same circumference as its head. It peeps again, ears wiggling.
[Harnier, all the way from Elysion, sending them a gift of owldog... Rosso has a momentary Emotion flicker in his eye before he walks around and sits on the edge of the couch to show Adrian.]
It's a Dachsologie. They're like Alisha is, made of the El. The fuck did you ask Mana for to get something from Elrios?
[Adrian shivers bodily as Rosso moves to sit beside him, relieved that the Thing is out of his hair so he can actually see it...and lo and fucking behold...
It really is just like Alisha. It's even small and round like she used to be, but different. Darker, with little ears and a beak...
Adrian looks briefly put-out, bringing a hand up to run his claws through his mane.]
I uh. I asked Mana to give me some kinda toy for Alisha to play with...so she wouldn't be chewin' my ears while I was tryin' to nap. Yaknow, somethin' that could move on its own maybe...I didn't think it'd be real.
[The Dachie makes another soft sound, becoming very flat in Rosso's hands.]
[...oh god Dachies are Alisha toys now. It all makes sense (it doesn't). Rosso allows the little guy to be flat in his hands.]
Dachsologie. Or just "Dachie". That's what those two kids from home call theirs. You remember Noah, I'm sure.
[Noah "cried about not having Clamor around and ran into Adrian, a big cat, and started petting him immediately" Ebalon, yeah him.]
Noah has one of these. Ain does, too. One of these kids is more annoying than the other. [Ainchase Ishmael Is An Adult Man.] Noah's Dachsologie sleeps all fucking day last I knew, and I think Ain's steals.
Who knows, yours might be— [holds the Dachie to his face, starts making embarrassing talking-to-animal voice at it] —a vicious, feral animal, just like your dad!
[Rosso clears his throat and abruptly corrects his posture, you did not see that.]
[Adrian watches, perplexed, as Rosso just...holds up this little blob and starts baby-talking to it, as if he's not sitting right there. Adrian probably couldn't forget Noah if he tried...he remembers that kid well, because he just sort of sat there petting him and crying until that Clamor guy eventually showed up. It was. A time.
Meanwhile, as Rosso explains Dachie lore to Adrian, said Dachie- who is close to Rosso's face- tries to nibble his nose if its close enough.
They get fuckin' big, aegiya. Greyhound sized. [Dachsologies are... not small.] We're gonna get bigass feathers all over the house, too.
[You know, once it grows more. Dachies have very majestic tailfeathers! They're very long and can be used as a quill if needed. Like, if all the pens in the world died... feather.]
They're also a bit birdlike. The beak is sharp. [which is why he's not letting the little guy eat his nose. dachie goes in lap now.]
[Dachie is now in Rosso's lap, still very flat and also he was born like five minutes ago? So there's a lot to look at. Mana Manifested him and he immediately hit in Adrian's hair, so he didn't really get a chance to...exist for long. He went towards the warmth, but Rosso's hands were warm so that was a good compromise...lap isn't As Warm but it will do for now.
Adrian, meanwhile, looks just slightly overwhelmed. Does Rosso mean to tell him he's a father now? Hello?? Mana he wasn't prepared for this he has DEPRESSION
...yet. Adrian is already reaching out with a finger to tentatively pet the top of the little guy's head, which causes him to become even more flat.]
I guess it's...kinda cute. It doesn't have wings though, for a bird...reminds me more of a dog.
[Petting the baby with boyfriend... Alisha meanwhile is on the back of the couch watching the baby with big eyes like :0 sibling... she is also stealing Rosso's lighter he left there.]
Penguins don't have wings either, and they're still birds. [They have flippers. And they are also at the zoo, in case he needs to point and be like look Adrian see.] When they get big, they're like... owl... dog... things. Chaotic owl dog things. Kind of like how Alisha is a fox cat thing.
Yeah, I dunno, when us Masters invented these things I don't know if half of us were high or not. Solace just made a whole-ass lion.
[Ventus made a gryphon, Denif a dragon, and Gaia a deer, so it really is just Rosso and Harnier that are the odd ones out. And Adrian From Elysion made a robot dragon. That Adrian is distinctly less fuckable than this one.
Rosso stares down at the Dachie... god he always forgets how big these things' fucking eyes are. What is it looking at—]
Alisha! [SNATCHING the lighter from his cat,] You can't have lighters!
[Alisha is unbothered, for once. She tumbles down the back of the couch, walks up to the baby... and then starts furiously grooming him.]
[Hm. They do seem like creatures someone might make while high as balls. Information to store away for later.
Adrian follows Rosso's gaze just as he yanks the lighter away from Alisha- snorts- then watches as she suddenly starts grooming him so aggressively that the baby beeps loudly in response.
And then continues beeping, albeit at a much softer volume.]
Well. Looks like they'll get along, at least. I did ask Mana for somethin' to keep her busy, so I woulda' been pissed if I didn't get my money's worth.
That's what you asked for? You could've gone to the normal-ass cat store [CAT STORE?] and gotten a normal-ass cat.
[...but Alisha seems happy, crawling Also into Rosso's lap to continue grooming the baby. Then she starts using her needle claws to make biscuits in Rosso's thighs and he flinches and hisses. Why.]
I'm sure she'll mellow out when she finishes growing.
I didn't want a real pet! Just like...I dunno. Somethin' more interesting than a normal cat toy, yaknow?
[But, well. Oops, he has a real pet now, his name is Dachie he is very soft. Meanwhile, Dachie is completely content to be groomed and has once more become a pancake in Rosso's lap.
=v= ]
At least it's somethin' from your world that's, like. Docile...if she brought in an animal from mine, it mighta' been a fuckin' wild animal for all I know.
Most Elrian wild animals are batshit insane. I told you about the giant man-eating crabs, right? The fact that there are these itty bitty tiny ones here weirds me the fuck out.
[Rosso voice: I should ask Mana for a giant crab. I have some people I would sick it on.]
I don't think I saw too many of your weird-ass animals all those times we went to the Cube. Wanna enlighten me?
[FLATSOLOGIE...he is beeping softly as Alisha grooms him. He might be falling asleep.]
Haah? Well...there's like. Mimics and shit.
[Mimics...aren't wild animals, that is racist-]
And like, dark magic wraiths and shit like that. I think there's some other half animal people out there, like I was, but they're not all that common. Otherwise maybe people would'a been more friendly with me.
Doesn't sound that bad. Kind of lawless like Elrios is.
[If a fantasy world is not lawless and untamed, is it truly a fantasy world?]
Elrianode itself mostly has Henir mutants. Most of them have probably been cleared up... I dunno. Haven't been there for it. [And Henir's Order is usually making more of them for shits and gigs and world domination, so.] Otherwise, it's bugs the size of a house and man-eating crabs and mana eaters. Blood eaters, too.
What the hell do you mean? That's normal for Elrios, so you get used to it. Like how "normal" for this place includes possibly eating your friends and the moon disappearing and giant holiday cats attacking everyone.
