How Sweet the Song of Night

[12winged_dealer]

[It almost came as a surprise, the realization he was dreaming. Not that it was hard to figure out, mind. It had been years since Benten was as small as the little bird before him, his wings barely sprouted, and the perpetual pout on his face. And never had he and Beni been the same size - two little chicks, clambering over him like he was a jungle

[Felix should have expected snow to be common in these dreams, but even so, he was rather captivated by this frosted-over garden. He approaches Bishamon, though he spares a few moments to brush hands over white-dusted flora, listening to the story being told but daring not intrude on the scene]

[Beni, the youngest, peeks his head from between his brother's wings and shrieks a giggle.]

Akio-niiiii~! Someone's here~!

[Bishamon 'looked' up from the book, reading it without seeing it, but somehow knowing what was on the page.]

So I see, Beni. Go greet our visitor. Be a good boy.

[The little boy with his little wings jumped up and ran over, reaching up to grab Felix's hand.]

Are you one of Akio-ni's friends? I bet you are!

[lord_wizard]

[Felix blinks down at the winged boy, wondering vaguely if the dream he'd fallen into was a fairytale, and not the story that was being told.

He manages a bashful smile and nods]

Yes. And who are you?

[12winged_dealer]

[The little one giggles, tugging Felix's hand back towards where Bishamon sat.]

I'm Kisshou! That's my big brother Akio~

[From the other side of Bishamon, his middle brother popped his out.]

Hey, I'm here too!

[Kisshou rolled his eyes.]

That's my other brother, Kikuo.

[The little one let Felix's hand go and hurried up to Bishamon, cuddling under his wings again. Bishamon pushed the wings tighter and nodded to Felix.]

Welcome to my dream, Felix.

[After finding himself pulled into the dream in question, Cupid just stops to listen to Bishamon's story without interrupting. This isn't the first dream that he's visited, so he's got at least some idea of what's going on. It was only an added bonus that this time he happened across someone that he already knew]

Lol, a bit late are we?

[12winged_dealer]

[Bishamon finished the story, and it was that moment that the littlest bird decided to get up and try to mimic it and saw Cupid.

He pouted at him and stamped his foot.]

No on is supposed to be interrupting our time with big brother!

Juuust a tad. D:

[matchmaker]

Sorry. I didn't realize that I was interrupting.

Kisshou, be nice.

[The little bird pouted, his wings fluttering and lifting him a bit off the ground as Bishamon rose, the other little boy looking sullenly at Cupid.]

To what do I owe the honor, Eros?
