Locke had only recently heard that there were chocobos in the city, but he had finally made his way to the stable.

He couldn't believe the comfort the sight of the yellow birds brought him. He hadn't really been a cocobo fan back home, prefering to look at them then ride them, but it was still nostalgic.

"Hey there, boys and girls, arn't you all a sight for sore eyes?"

[dystopiadreams]

Selphie laughed as her face appeared between a small crowd of chocobos - she'd been crouched to groom the hind legs of one of the birds.

"Aren't they just?"

[kings_thief]

Locke jumped a bit, he hadn't noticed her there.

"Hi, Selphie. Do you want some help?"

As much as he and cocobo riding didn't mix, he still loved interacting with them.

[dystopiadreams]

Selphie laughed at his jumping and nodded her head, "Sure! Come on in!"

She pointed towards the little gate and turned back to singing at one of them, watching it dance as she groomed it carefully.

Locke hopped the fence, never being one for the conventional, and came to stand at the side of a diffrent chocobo, running his fingres through it's feathers.

"You have a nice voice, Selph."

If it was calming him, he could only imagine what it was doing for the 'oversized canaries'.

Selphie paused and turned to Locke with a light blush on her cheeks, "Aww! Thank you so much! I think the chocobos like it!" So she looked back to the birds and continued her tune.

[kings_thief]

"I bet they do." He more mumbled it then anything and he turned back to tending the chocobos.

[dystopiadreams]

Selphie turned back to Locke, a confused look on her face as she tilted her head, "Huh? Did you say something?"

[kings_thief]

Locke blushed, embarresed he'd been caught.

"Nothing important...I was just agreeing with you. I think they do like it...I mean, I know I do!"

[dystopiadreams]

Selphie went back to singing softly to chocobos, a little bit quieter than she had before. She wasn't sure if Locke was being serious, or was mumbling cause he didn't like it, so she sang a little quieter. After all, if the chocobos liked it that was all that mattered.

[kings_thief]

Locke felt bad, he could tell he had upset her. Probably because he had been so secretive. He was just embarresed, he didn't want her to feel the same.

"Oh, man, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you embarresed! I really like your singing, and I know the chocobos do so..."

He had a bad case of foot-in-mouth syndrome.

[dystopiadreams]

Selphie turned back to him, her expression having visibly brightened, "Oh that's good! I thought you didn't like it...and maybe you were just saying things to be nice."

She crossed over to him and handed over the grooming brush, "Wanna try?"

[kings_thief]

"I wouldn't lie to you, Selphie."

He accepted the brush from her and hesitantly began to brush the large bird.

"I hope I'm doing this right."

[dystopiadreams]

Selphie smiled at his comment, and nodded her head, "I know you wouldn't!" And she had good reason to believe so, since he had saved her and looked after her when he could have been doing anything else.

Selphie watched as the chocobo closed its eyes and started moving its neck slowly, "It looks really happy so you must be!"
