Re: Kylie (Courage Wolf)
Sheila sighed as Kylie spoke of reality and the need for the children to see it sooner rather than later. "Hah... well it's not my place to speak for these little ones here, because they see you as their mother. All I'm saying is, let them enjoy their childhood before you try and teach them ways that are different than our ways. They may call you mother, but they are still alraune, and I can guarantee you that no other alraune or Giselle either would want them to grow up with ice in their chests as you say you yourself have. I'm not saying to not train them as you want Kylie, but let them have their childhood before you do is all I'm saying. I want them to be strong too, believe me, but not at the expense of their happiness by training them at too young an age for a fight that may or may not ever happen," Sheila said, still obviously concerned for the little ones, but it was an understandable concern Kylie would know considering all that had happened recently and whatnot, and considering the fact she was a red alraune and the protection of her people rested first on her and the other reds before anyone else, though the red alraune did seem to understand Kylie's want to ensure the girls were as strong as they could be, or at least she was trying to understand it anyway.
As Kylie went over to Giselle and scooped the little runt up, the poor little green alraune gave a cute little eek as she was lifted up from the ground where she was standing at with Hope and the others that weren't riding on Wraith's back. The little green looked up at Kylie as Giselle smiled and pulled Kylie to sit down with her. "Pino... Pino," she repeated a couple of times, looking around at Kylie for a moment before pointing to herself. "Pino?" she asked curiously.
The little reds looked at her curiously, the one she'd named Oak looking down at her feet. "Mmm... Oak?" she asked.
"Hmhm... I don't know if she wants to be called Oak sweetie. Can't say I blame her though honestly, Oak does sound more for a... male alraune, if those even existed," Giselle said, giggling a bit as she spoke, a look of deep thought on her face. "Ah, how about we name her Lauren, after a laurel tree," Giselle suggested, at which point the little one looked up at her and smiled.
"Lauren!" the little red said, smiling and bouncing on Kylie's knee at Giselle's suggestion.
"Willow... Willow!" the little blue said before flopping down into Kylie's lap as far down as she could.
"Orc... Orcy?" the little pink asked, obviously having a bit of trouble saying her own new name, though she was still very young, so it could only be expected.
Giselle helped Kylie sit down once the little ones all ran off, probably forgetting all she'd told them within a minute of leaving knowing how children were sometimes. She then sat herself down next to Kylie as Ayane came over with a small tray that had 4 pieces of chocolate cake that had some of the tastiest vanilla frosting Kylie had ever tasted in her life. "Please, have some cake you three, we cultivate most of the island's cocoa beans just over there along with many other jungle and forest fruits that we trade with the villages for our own necessities that we require," Ayane said as she pointed over across the little stream where Hope's little lean to was, after which she handed each of them a piece of cake and then a cup of milk to go with it before she sat down too to join them. "Hmhm... they all seem to be having quite a bit of fun. I overheard the names you gave them too Kylie, and I must say I agree with Giselle on Oak being less suitable than Lauren. Though we don't go with just plant names obviously, else half the village would be named Sakura or Violet, or some such," Ayane added before taking a bite of her chocolate cake.
