[the screen is a flash of white fabric before it is properly adjusted to display shirley's face. her expression is, surprisingly!, mixed: somewhere between annoyance and amused disbelief. really, you can't blame her because:]

It seems I have found myself with children.

[...before you, dear viewer, can wonder about this, the screen adjusts for you

[That's a lot of ducklings... Staring for a little bit and then:]

Not...sure if I should volunteer to take one, but I don't mind helping you with taking care of them until they find homes.

[Of course, Lavi might always change his mind.]

[you know you want one, lavi~.]

Thank you. Are you sure you shouldn't take one in?

[looseleafbook]

[He does. >:]

I can house a few, not sure what I'd do with one of my own.

[thenobledie]

What one does with a pet, I imagine.

[Laughs sheepishly, rubbing at his head.]

Wouldn't know, really. Gramps didn't let me keep one.

[thenobledie]

What a shame. Companionship with a creature can come naturally, though.

Never heard of ducks as pets before, just as farm animals.

[thenobledie]

I believe anything may be kept as a pet if its behavior is controllable. Wouldn't you agree?

[looseleafbook]

Guess so, just takes someone willing to put in the effort.

It can be worth it.

[...not that...her dragon is a pet. and she would never dare disrespect him by saying as much, even as a joke. still, elior was difficult to tame, but the end result is something she has remained grateful.]

[A hum in response, another thing that Lavi's just heard about in that respect.]

The ducklings are cute enough that they'll all probably find homes by the end of the day anyway.

[lavi. ): she is saving one for you, whether you like it or not!]

Yes, I think so. Especially if they part in pairs.

[Sob. So nice.]

People are taking two of them?

[thenobledie]

[you need emotions~. ...this coming from her: pot, kettle.]

They need company with their own as well.

[He has them, he's just still struggling with them. Sob.]

No playdates? [Grin]

[thenobledie]

[sob, lavi.]

Only if you want to arrange them.
