[ oh geez, she leaves you alone for five minutes-- Kairi is heading to the rescue!!

... Which means she's actually trotting over to wrap her hands around the bug, because when you grow up with Sora waving creepy-crawlies in your face and going "LOOK KAIRI ISN'T IT COOL", you tend to build up a tolerance to big caterpillars. ]

Come on, let it go!

[ABSOLUTELY NOT, RED-HAIRED POSSIBLE MATE OF TRAINER-- yes, that is exactly what Metal Chocobo sees Kairi as-- either way, she's pulling back on that poor Caterpie, lifting her head way back. if Kairi isn't careful she's going to be lifted straight into the air.]

[ good thing she has no idea-- and bad thing that Kairi isn't careful, because oh god HER FEET ARE LEAVING THE GROUND. This is thankfully not stretching the Caterpie like a slinky, because she's tried to get a grip on Metal Chocobo's beak instead. ]

Kairi-- METAL CHOCOBO, LET HER GO.

[that's a tone Sora uses pretty rarely, and it's enough to startle Metal Chocobo into letting go. luckily, she hadn't stood to her full, almost 7-feet tall height, so the fall back down shouldn't be too far.]

[ not too far at all, though Kairi lets out an audible "oof!" and lands on her butt anyway without the time to stumble back for proper balance. No worries, she's fine. ]

[Sora's bending down to help her up, and checking her over frantically anyway. Metal Chocobo is just watching silently, head tilted to the side.]

You okay?

Y-yeah, I'm fine! [ she'll even smile up at him. ] No harm done.

If you're sure.

[... meanwhile, Metal Chocobo inches closer to Kairi and catches a bit of red hair in her beak. what, she's curious. human son is protective of human girl!]

[ she's keeping a hold of that Caterpie just in case the bird is trying again-- oh wait now it's her hair. ]

Hey--

... Metal Chocobo... [the giant bird turns and squawks at Sora. what! I'm inspecting her for you. 8I]

... [ she'll stay still, then. She doesn't feel like getting her hair yanked. ]

[... hmm... clean clothes, no bugs in the hair (dangit), she seems nice enough... okay, Trainer! Metal Chocobo officially approves of your best friend-- that's probably why she's nudging Kairi back toward Sora and wandering off to find another Caterpie.]

... She... kind of reminds me of your mom. [ she's afraid to put this Caterpie down. ]

My mom? [Sora stares at Metal Chocobo as she pokes around for another bug-- it takes a few minutes, but he does see it. now that he thinks about it, he's vaguely reminded about how his mom used to try to get to get him to eat his vegetables.]

Y'know... she kinda is like my mom.

You're too big to be her chick, though.

That doesn't seem to be stopping her.
