eachdraidh | [Video] or action for Caer Scima

[It should be clear from the view that Lumina is back in Caer Scima when she turns the locket on, though half the screen is covered up by her and her excited face. She is grinning from ear to ear, practically vibrating in place. Apparently this is one of those rare genuinely happy moments from Lumina.]

Guys! Look, look!

[The screen whirls as the kid twists around, but when it settles down the Caer Scima stables can be seen. Her little squad of pink and black painted imps are all fluttering around excitedly, seemingly having caught their mistresses excitement. And in the center of them is a giant black bird wearing a simple white saddle. Seemingly noticing someone is looking at him, the bird leans forward to stare at the locket before letting out a puzzled 'wark?']

[Then the screen whirls again and is back to Lumina, who is giggling from her excitement.]

Isn't he amazing? The imps said he's mine, I mean, when I complained about there not being any chocobos here I wasn't expecting anything but-

[She cuts off as the screen is suddenly blocked by black feathers and a big beak, the chocobo having walked over to lean his head past Lumina's shoulder and jab at the locket curiously. Lumina makes a surprised noise, then laughs and reaches up to scratch the giant bird on the head. It coos softly and then leans up.]

See? Completely amazing. And so much better than those silly horse things. And he is aaaaall mine.

What're you going to name him?

[This is asked by an imp as he flutters by, half his face painted pink, the other black. Lumina starts to answer but stops herself, frowning up at the big bird.]

Hm. Iiiii...am not sure.

[She turns to the locket once more, but says nothing for a few seconds, her eyes narrowed in thought.] Midnight, maybe? Or shadow...oe...[Suddenly her eyes light up. Ooh, idea.]

I know! What do you guys think of Chaos? Chaos the Chocobo!

... You got a giant chicken and you're happy about it?

Well. Okay then.

It's not a chicken, it's a chocobo!

[You just don't understand, Veronica.]

[No, she really doesn't, Lumina.]

A chocochickenbo? Do they taste good fried?

[Okay, now she's teasing.]

...Probably? [Lumina frowns and then narrows her eyes.] Nobody's eating my chocobo, though! I'm gonna show up all these silly horse things.

Horse things? Are there other things there besides horses?

[Someone hadn't really gone down and checked out the stables. ~~They'd been out of unicorns~~]

Uh. There are those bandersnitches?

[She did not get the word wrong on purpose she just overheard it wrong whoops.]

What the hell is a bandersnitch?

...

You know what? Never mind. I don't want to know.

They're kind of like...these big sort of...Anyway, the point is, they aren't nearly as wonderful as my new chocobo!

Yes, yes, your giant chicken is very nice. Hey, does it lay eggs? I'd kill for a good omelet.

He's a boy! And...there's just the one. So no chocobo chicks running around. [Which is a sudden disappointment, but she'll ignore it.]

Even if he did, it'd be bigger than your head!

What, you've never seen an ostrich egg?

[Probably not, if the girl came from a land of monster chickens.]

...What's an ostrich?

Chaos sounds like a pretty good name for him. [I mean chaos can't be good or bad so there's that to consider, and he certainly looks like a "Chaos".] What's he think of it?

Hmm. Not sure.

Hey! Chaos! [She turns back to the chocobo and shouts the name, and it regards here pretty much exactly the way it was regarding her before. But he didn't run away or anything.]

Maybe it'll grow on him.

It is a handsome creature.

[ He will have to see it in person. ]

[Aw, it's ~~Lev~~ The outsider! Lumina beams a bit at his praise.]

He is! I didn't even know they could be born in black anymore!

[ c: hi ]

Is their a significance to the color, other than the rarity?

Mm. I know there used to be? Before all the ones that weren't yellow went extinct different colors had different magical abilities!

Buuuuuut I have no idea what they were.

Well. You will have to find out with your new friend's help.

...Oh man, do you think he can do magic?

[She frowns then.]

I wouldn't even know how to start figuring out what he could do, though.

Perhaps. But I do not know these creatures.

He will show you in time.

I hope so. [Now she'd probably be disappointed if he couldn't do magic. But not that much. She's like a kid that got a pony for her birthday.]

He's really fast too!

[ooc: I asked and he totally gets to have magic. hehe.]

I picked a black horse for myself. Perhaps we should race them in the future.

((ooc: UM BEST THING))

Hey, as long as you don't ind losing, I'm up for it.

I do not mind. [ He's not very good at horseback riding yet. ]
