[video] [Both Courts] Everybody loves eggs right?
[Lumina is skipping along ahead of the image feed when it clicks on, so one of her imps is probably filming her again. People familiar with the area might recognizing the rolling hills outside of Mair, but now nestled between a number of them is what looks like a large, sprawling ranch. Lumina comes to a stop beneath a hand-painted sign that says 'Gran Pulse Chocobo Ranch', with a painting of a bright yellow chocobo standing in front of a giant green and blue planet, with a smaller gray planet hanging in the background.]
[She twists around once she's under the sign and grins at the locket. Chaos the black chocobo is standing just inside the gate, sans his usual armor and saddle, and he peers at his mistress and the imp with a 'why me' kind of expression, then warks quietly.]
Look, they gave me a whole ranch! I had to make the sign myself though. [Lumina can find fault in anything.]
But it's a chocobo ranch! I mean, it will be. Once I have more than three of them. I mean, who gives you a ranch but not any extra animals?
[She huffs because she can't exactly breed their glorious chicken-mount overlords without more chicken-mounts, can she? But then the cheerful grin is back and she jumps forward to snatch the locket away from the imp.]
But look!
[There's a flare of light and darkness that obscures everything, and when it fades, Lumina is inside somewhere. There are two yellow chocobos, smaller than the black one seen earlier but ride-able, standing over a little wooden box, and Lumina runs over to it. She spins the locket around to her face again, and she is clearly more excited than she can contain.]
There'll be more of them soon!
[And again the locket goes spinning around, pointing inside the box. There's hey, and five eggs about the size of melons, each speckled a different color. She reaches out to tap one of them, which earns her an annoyed little wark from one of the parent chocobos, and then she giggles.]
Sooorry.
[And then back to pointing the screen at herself.]
See Steve, that's a chocobo egg. No you can't eat one. [A beat and a smirk.] I'd say people can come see them but there's that whole war thing going on, huh?
[Another little pause.]
But uh...on a related thing, dooooooes anyone know anything about hatching eggs? Or taking care of eggs? Or...really...anything about eggs? Except the eating part. Anything useful.
[Because she doesn't have a clue whoops.]

It's got a bunch of rooms I have no idea what to do with any of it. Before I came here I never even had my own room!
no subject
[ Alice certainly wouldn't know what to do with them, either. ]
You'll figure something out, but for now, you should enjoy it.
no subject
It's big and kind of l...empty. [She may have started to say lonely there.]
no subject
Do you not want it empty?
no subject
Back on Gran Pulse there were always people around too. It's weird being so far away from everyone.
no subject
Know that I am here if you ever need the company.

Aaaaaanyway. They should hatch in a few weeks, right? I've been trying to figure out what colors they'll be but I don't think the egg spots really matter.
[No more talk of keeping an eye on her.]
no subject
I don't think that it would make much of a difference, either. And besides, it wouldn't matter what color they are, too, they'll still be darling.

There's a whole list and a bunch of colors.
no subject
So they do not take after their parents. Interesting.
no subject
I didn't really read it it got a little gross.
no subject
I would imagine that it wouldn't be. Just think of what they'll be like when they hatch, instead.
no subject
So, you want one?
