[ Terra hasn't made a post since the fiasco with the ghosts - thank god that was over! All the same, she was sitting outside - or to be more accurate, on the limb of a tree, with a baby chicobo walking the length of her leg, back and forth. She appears rather entertained with the sight, and turns the video to show the little animal. ]

Um...before... before Lilisette was - went away, she gave me one of the chocobos that she'd been looking after. I think it's customary to name them, but ... I don't know what a proper name for an animal is. I was thinking "Feathers" for her.

[ Because she has feathers. Terra is so freaking creative you don't even know. ]

Do you think that it's all right? I don't know what else I could name her. Ah --

[ Thaaaat reminds her. ] Oh... I hope it's all right, Leon.

[ After all, she might be helping him out with the restoration of the house until it's rebuilt, but that didn't mean he'd want a cute little bitty bird in the house too. And she didn't even bring up the subject of her companion! ]

Ah! A chocobo chick... how cute!

You have chocobos in your world too?

[ She smiles faintly. ]

I didn't know they were this small when they were babies. I've only seen the full grown ones.

[ video ]

[pilgrimaged.livejournal.com]

Yes, we do. But like you, I have only really seen ones that are matured. I'm sure that he or she will have a wonderful home with you, Terra!

Whoa, where'd you get a chicken?

_{[WHAT ARE CHOCOBOS, MAN.]}

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

Chicken?

[ IT's a giant chikken! A GIANT CHICKEN IN A SUIT-- oh wait. ]

This is a chicobo. Lilisette gave her to me, ...before she vanished.

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

It's a bird-thing that clucks and lays eggs.

Chicobo? What's that?

[This, a creature of feathers and air, interests him. He has seen nothing like it before.

Still, as always, he seems to be looking at something else. He barely glances at the PCD even as he speaks.]

You have discovered a new bird?

[Video]

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

[ She shakes her head. ]

No - well, it's a bird that we have back home. I just didn't think there would be one here as well, until Lilisette mentioned them.

[Video]

[musicite.livejournal.com]

I will come to see him.

[This is rather rudely phrased as a simple statement of intent rather than request; but this isn't perhaps shocking from him.]

[She laughs quietly, politely covered by a hand near her mouth.]

He seems very cute. Do you know how to care for him?

[Video]

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

Um. Well ... I know you have to keep them in some kind of shelter, and well fed. I don't know if you need to do anything more than that though.

[Video]

[innerflow.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Do you know what he eats? How much space he needs?

[Oh hey!]

I wonder if there's a book that would help.

[Video]

[unwaveringsmile.livejournal.com]

A bird? It's cute! I like the name. It's practical!

[Video]

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

Do you think so? [ Hee! ] I think she likes the name too.

[Video]

[unwaveringsmile.livejournal.com]

It seems like it! And she has pretty feathers, too. Does a chocobo grow up to be very big?

video;

[pinkhairedkitty.livejournal.com]

I think the name feathers suits it really well, though I never would have thought of that as a name.

video;

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

Really? What would you have named yours if you had one?

video;

[pinkhairedkitty.livejournal.com]

Well, people would usually think of names much like people names. Though I would go for something that's cute.

[Video]

[executionerrose.livejournal.com]

That is a ... large bird...

[And people were giving him strange looks for keeping an owl!]

Video]

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

[ But it's just a baby! Not even bigger than an owl ... at least until it grows up. Then it's about the size of a horse. ]

Really? Maybe she's big for her age... Oh, I hope she doesn't get too big to keep...

[Video]

[executionerrose.livejournal.com]

But… don’t those things get huge?

[Even for a baby it does look bigger than Trabant, at least on video. ]

[Taiki is unfamiliar with chocobos. He knows birds, but not chocobos. His scientific mind is curious. :X]

Is that a "chocobo"?

[He peers at the screen.]

Ah, forgive me if I'm being too forward, but could you tell me a bit about them? I don't think I've ever heard of such a thing before.

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

[ She nods slowly. ]

You've seen them before? Um... I... don't know a lot about them, but I'll be happy to tell you what I do know. Um...what do you want to know about them?

[ If that chocobo chick isn't a sight for sore eyes after this past week, Valeria doesn't know what is. She closes the notebook on the table in front of her, giving the stranger and the chicobo her undivided attention. She's a little distracted by the latter, though. ] It's been a while since I saw one so young. She's pretty cute.

[video]

[lastesper.livejournal.com]

[ Terra cants her head to the side curiously - she didn't recognize to this one. ]

Thank you. A-although I really can't take credit for her appearance. But she is very sweet. [ She giggles a little as the chicobo preens as if she knew she was being talked about. ]
