Prompt 10: Stable

"Now, I know I'm starting your life of crime early, but I couldn't think of anything more 'enriching' than bringing to you to meet Joyeux and Troubadour.," Inwa spoke to the bundle of baby viera in his arms. The little one babbled at Inwa in response as the elder Miqo'te reached out to open the gate. A quick glance was given down to his little partner in crime, and then over the stables.

"Not quite" he sighed in response to that babbling. "I know your father would oppose my taking you over the salt, but you're wrong, my little accomplice." he tsked, wagging his finger. "I also didn't tell the owners of this very stable that I was coming, nor that I was bringing someone along." Inwa brought a finger up to his mouth, leaning in close to the little one. "This must remain a secret between us and the giant birds you're here to see."

If he were to be honest, Inwa rarely if ever ventured to the stables. Without a chocobo of his own and no real clue how to care for them, he always made the choice to leave them to Silvain. Even with that in mind, it was easy to find Joyeux, the warbird greeting the familiar miqo'te warmly, nipping and preening at his hair. Troubadour's talkative warbling in the background also couldn't be ignored, calling out to the pair.

"Troubadour! How could I think I could sneak anywhere with you here…," Inwa smiled, holding his finger up again. "I will get to you in a moment. I just--" His words were cut off when the small bun came to realize the large creature that had come into view, taking deep breaths to work up a cry.

"He's very big, isn't he. Oh, it's okay, he's not scary." Inwa leaned down to kill the top of the baby's head, rocking him slowly. The arm that wasn't cradling him reached out to pet Joyeux's beak, "See? He's a good chocobo. You could also pet him, but…" Inwa winced when fussy fists balled into his hair and began yanking and tangling into it as he decided if he wanted to cry or not.

Joyeux rested his head down against the small one, large beady eyes on the long-eared baby. With luck, Inwa was able to untangle one little fist. Placing a finger under it, he guided the child's fist to Joyeux's beak. "There. You see? Everything is fine."

The Baby Bun splayed his hand on the chocobo's beak, wide blue eyes on the dark blue of the bird's feathers. The deep breaths calmed, the child reaching to put the tangled hand on the beak as well, curling little fingers and then opening them again.

"Thank you for being understanding, Joyeux," Inwa also placed his free hand on the chocobo, soothing at his feathers with a smile. "And please don't tell Silvain. I know the stable hands will, but I would appreciate juuuust this bit of secrecy."

A warble from Troubadour direction called Inwa's attention once more, turning to peer at the other chocobo in contempt, proverbial feathers ruffled.

"No, it's not mine! You especially better not run your beak to Honore."

the thing about willow is that all the women are ethereal and hot and knights and badass fighters and all the men look like if the autism creature grew out its hair

Cannot help but roll my eyes when I read posts bemoaning how boring the colors on the web have gotten v.s. the early web when things were regularly all bright and neon.

My new haircut is giving, alternatively, "elementary schooler", "insufferable guy who's into computers", and "[name], does this mean you're nonbinary now?".

one time I used the ben affleck smoking reaction image in the family group chat and my mom replied with the funniest possible response which was: "mommy doesn't know who the guy is???" and that phrase has not left my brain since. I'll see blorbos on my dash that I don't recognize and I'll be like well it seems mommy doesn't know who the guy is.

People will claim to be a fan of some thing and then hate all of the themes and motifs and story lines and plot lines and protagonists and antagonists like man I don’t think that you actually like it here
