[Kelmis seems innocent enough, just a black chocobo chick with adorable on his side. However, it's a clever little bird and while his owner is dead to the world, waddles out of Ceodore's bedroom to inspect the rest of the house. On finding the front door slightly ajar, it's little beak pushes through the crack. FREEDOM!

So good morning, Luceti! ( Read more... )

[No, Kelmis, no! Lyn's hair is not food! The poor woman gives a rather undignified yelp as the young chocobo bites at her ponytail, bending over in an attempt to keep it from pulling too hard.]

Ah! L-let go, you... giant bird!

[The chicobo sure thinks it is, although after chomping on it a few times, he warks in disgust. What is that impostor foodstuff? Meanwhile, Ceodore spots his pet dangling from Lyn's hair and cringes.]

Hey Kelmis! Turn her loose! That's not food you dummy!

[Darned thing has a determined beakful. Ceodore will probably have to pry the bird's mouth open to free her.]

Ceodore! Is this thing yours?

[Wincing as Kelmis takes another experimental chomp, she reaches out to try to force his beak open. Not exactly the safest thing to do, but she's got nimble fingers.]

Yeah, sorry about that, Lyn.

[Ceodore grabs the bird, and tries to help free her hair. Kelmis doesn't nip for it but he makes a series of protesting noises as a result. Loud ones.]

Hush! You're going to wake the whole village.

It's alright, just help me get him off.

[Finally, the bird lets go and Lyn sighs with relief, stepping back a bit to bring herself well out of his reach.]

... Why is it so upset?

I think he thought your hair was food.

[Whether it's upset that it's not or just from having his beak removed is anyone's guess.]

I don't think I've ever had that particular problem before.

[She stares at Kelmis for a little bit before asking...]

What exactly is he?

Um, he's a chocobo. More like a chicobo. They get a lot bigger than this.

A Chocobo, hmmm? How big do they get?

Well, the black ones usually get about this tall.

[He holds his hand up around the height of 5'7".]

The yellow ones are more common and get taller.

[This time the hand goes up to around 5'11".]

They're used as mounts.

Like horses... [Lyn's expression perks up a bit at that.]

Horses are those hoofed animals that someone told me about, right?

... You don't have horses in your world?

[She looks as though she's having trouble even processing the thought.]

[Ceodore shakes his head. Having never seen Odin, he's got no clue whatsoever.]

I... can scarcely imagine that.

Well, yes, horses do have hooves... they go on four legs, they're very tall, a person usually barely comes up to their shoulders, and they make excellent mounts. They have wonderful endurance and great speed.
