((Going on a date tonight D: Never would have thought! lol))

Wynter beamed as Jeremiah complimented her bunny before walking over to Iggy and holding her arms out for him to hold her. She may have been older than Lily, but she didn't act it, nor did she look it. She was very tiny for her age. You could tell that the little girl adored Iggy for some odd reason.

"You'll hear it when the Branagan boys come. There's is slightly different since they're from Ireland, but they do sound quite similar as well." Sare explained to Jeremiah with a smile. "This pack is broken off from the pack over in Ireland so a lot of the really older people you find around here are most likely from that area and will still maintain their accent."

Iggy chuckled as he scooped Wynter up in his arms easily, poking her side playfully. "Have ye been having fun?" He asked her simply as Lily spoke up quietly.

"Scuse me....but...Sare said something about lunch? I'm kinda hungry...." She said, unsure of what she could even eat here but she was getting hungry. She gave Celeste and Jared a small smile but opted to stay by her uncle and Sare. They seemed nice but it was a lot to take in. If one paid attention, though, her eyes kept darting around to the numerous books in the shoppe.

((Woo. Go never!! Lol :) hoping it goes well!))

Wynter giggled as she nodded her head. "Fun! Wynter name fun! Momma and Daddy fun." She told him. "Lily name and Jeremiah name fun?" She asked him as she tilted her head to side slightly.

Celeste snapped her fingers as she shot up. "That's right! I have some sandwiches in the back I made for me and Wynter while we waited. "Can she have peanut butter?" She asked Kai, remembering them saying something about Lilith's allergies.

Jared walked over, his sharp eyes noticing Lily's eyes straying to the books. Kneeling down, he smiled at her.

"Did you want to go look at the books while my wife gets lunch figure out with the others? I'll show you around." He asked her, his quiet voice sweet sounding.

Iggy nodded with a small smile, "They are....they're simply a little tired right now. It was a long trip here from their home. I think after lunch they'll be more fun..." he promised the young girl, knowing Lily at least would be more out going. "So...have ye picked a name for ye friend here?" He asked her, bopping the bunny lightly on the nose.

Kai nodded with a small smile, "Yeah...she can't have any kind of seafood or meat. Nuts and such should be fine." She mused, looking over as Nina spoke up.

"Do ye need any help, Celeste?" She asked curiously, giving the older woman a sweet smile. She knew Celesete probably had questions since she didn't leave in the best of conditions and she was fine with that.

Lily gave Jared a shy smile, nodding a little. "Id really like that....but...I can't read English that good." She admitted, tugging on her sleeves a little. He reminded her a lot of Sheng....it was comforting.

"Tired?" Wynter asked curiously as she looked over at Lily then Jeremiah before back at Iggy. When he asked about her bunny and bopped it on the nose, she giggled as she pulled it closer to her and twisted a little. "Name? Bunny name!" She told him what it was, not quite understanding the concept of naming yet.

"Then we'll get her a peanut butter sandwich. It will be a good Earth experience." Celeste said with a smile before looking over at Nina. "If you want dear. I certainly wouldn't mind the help and company." She admitted as she tucked a stray strand of midnight hair behind her ear that had fallen out of her ponytail.

Jared smiled as he stood up and held his hand out for her to show her. "That's okay. While you're here, I'd be happy to help you learn better English if you wish." He offered to her as he pushed up his glasses once more. "How about we start off with an easy book. Do you want to go pick one out to bring home?" He asked her.

Iggy chuckled lightly, getting the confusion from the little girl easily. He decided to take up time to explain that whole thing later. "Ahh...right. Well bunny is a very pretty bunny. So, what do you like to do? Read? Play games? Music?" He asked her, bouncing her a little so she was more comfortable.

Nina smiled, kissing Devin on the cheek playfully before following Celeste into the back. "How has everything been since we left?" She asked curiously, knowing there was at least a lot of construction going on.

Lily hesitated before finally taking Jared's hand in her small one. "I can take one home?!" She asked with surprise, seeming to be stuck on that fact for the moment. Sure she had one or two books she'd brought with her from home but she couldn't read as much as she wanted to. Maybe here she'd get more of a chance....

Wynter tilted her head again, eyebrows furrowing in confusion as she tried to follow Iggy's words. It was obvious that she still didn't know very many words. "No read." She told him, sounding sad before looking around the store then back at him. "Movie! Multi-pass!" She told him about her love for movies, giggling as he bounced her a little, tiny arms wrapping around his neck. "Games?" She asked him, that one word sticking in her head.


Celeste smiled as she lead her over to the corner where she had packed the bags of sandwiches. "Everyone has had their issues adapting." Celeste admitted. "Some things have been great, Wynter has been so wonderful." She told her as she smiled over at her. "And others have been terrible. My sister has been in a mood the whole time they were fixing her house. We held the funerals a couple of days ago. That was a really hard day." She spoke up quietly.


Jared chuckled as he nodded. "Whichever one you want to take home you can." He promised her. "Do you want me to tell you what each one is about that catches your eye and choose that way?" He asked her as he brought her to the kids section and showed her his collection of books. There was everything; from Dr. Seuss to Goosebumps to Fairy Tales. There was a pretty good selection to choose from.

Iggy nodded, "Youll be able to read soon enough but I like movies too. And yes games...like running around, kicking a ball around...." he laid out for her simply, knowing she'd made a lot of progress since he'd last seen her.

Nina nodded, "I can't blame Celene though...I'm very happy not to have been here while they were fixing our home." She admitted, her smile at Wynter's progress faltered at Celeste's next words. "Yeah...Dev mentioned that to me. I'm really hoping to see Erik tomorrow." She told her, concern for the young boy obvious in her voice. She'd hoped to have been there for the funeral but now she would focus on helping him get through the next few months which were going to be the roughest.

Lily's smile grew a little as she nodded, looking around at the books. "Okay....well....I like fairy tales and some adventure..." she told him with a nod, pointing to a book then. It was a Dr. suess book with fish all over the front. It definetly didn't look like any book she'd seen before. "What's that one? With the blue and red fish?"

"Ball? Kicking?" Wynter asked, obviously confused but curious about a lot of the words that Iggy was speaking. "Games fun?" She asked him, tilting her head to the side again.


"He's doing as well as one can expect. I'm really worried about his father Jerrod, however. He looks so thin and tired." Celeste sighed sadly as she handed a plate of sandwiches over to Nina. "I think you visiting him would do Erik a lot of good." She told her as she looked over at her, having caught how much the younger boy adored Nina.


Jared smiled, chuckling quietly as he pulled it out and handed it to her for the girl to inspect. "This is a Dr. Seuss book called One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. Dr. Seuss makes a lot of books. They're all very colorful and he likes to rhyme his words and make them up. Do you like rhyming?" He asked her.

Iggy nodded, "lots and lots of fun." He assured her, poking her side playfully. "How about after lunch we play some games with the others?" He suggested with a small smile.

Nina nodded soloumnly, "I worry about him as well. He didn't look that great when we left...." she admitted with a small shrug, taking the plate with a small, shy smile. "I hope so...and I brought him back a sheild. Well, not a real sheild of course but a practice wooden one like the boys back home use. I know he loves stories of adventure and knights..." she trailed off with a small, shy shrug, that letter he'd wrote her last really having stuck with her. She knew there was no one who could ever replace his mother, and she would never dream of trying to do so, but she was going to do her best to ensure he had a full and loving life.

Lily smiled as she took the book from him, but looked up at him curiously. "What's rhyming?" She asked simply, before looking back down at the book. The creatures and bright colors made her tilt her head. Were there creatures that really looked like this on Earth?!
