                                                          spaceSebastian rolled his eyes when Caty tried to make birds sound cool. Okay, fine, so sometimes they were big, but being big didn't make something cool! "Llamas spit in your face, too, it doesn't mean they're cool. They're just big weird looking sheep things with a bad attitude," he said, shaking his head at her. "Buuuut, if you just gotta see the birds, fiiiiine. We'll see the birds... Last! An' only if we've already seen all the other stuff!" Sebastian knew that if his mum were here, she'd thwack him upside the head for being so bossy and rude, but that was the whole point of her not being there. Besides, he was used to pretty much always getting his way. It didn't happen as much now that Mels was home, but he was still pretty spoiled overall.

                                                          spaceThe blond gave his friend an annoyed look when Balder said something in Norwegian, looking up at Magni expectantly. "What the heck's that mean?" he asked. Bastian hated it when the other boy started going on in another language, it was always confusing. He'd tried once to retaliate by speaking German, but it turned out one of his sisters spoke it or something, so he'd understood about half of what Bastian had said. When Magni mentioned trying not to leave them behind, the child picked up his pace, not wanting to be slow. "No! We gotta move quick, or we won't have time! The zoo is huuuuuuuge," he declared, not wanting to miss anything. Well, except the birds, but Caty wanted to see those, so they had to make sure there was time. He was starting to wonder if his niece had the right idea; whenever she went anywhere, she always tried to climb all over the tallest person present and made them carry her. The boy scrunched up his face at the mental reference to Desi as his niece; he was nine, he wasn't supposed to be an Uncle! It was weird! Except, he did love Desi and Zach, so he guessed he'd let it go... eventually.

Maylene entered the zoo with Skylar and Dris. She had picked Dris up earlier that day from Diagon, since she was planning a trip to London that day and wanted to give Milo and Wyatt a bit of a break from the seven year old. She knew children could be a handful at that age, especially Driskol. He was always so happy and excited, with seemingly endless energy. Skylar, on the other hand, was happy when she was with Dris, and she liked to see her happy. Thus, her companions for the day were her daughter and her best friend. With Skylar on her right side and Driskol on her left, she held their hands tightly to keep them from getting lost in the crowds. It seemed fairly busy today, but then again, it was a nice day for once. It wasn't too warm, and the sun was attempting to make an appearance through the clouds. "So, what do you two want to see first? The penguins, or maybe the butterfly tent?" she asked the two of them.

Mackenzie had been whining about wanting to go to the zoo for the past two weeks, so Ariana promised that if she stopped, she would take her this weekend. Saturday had crept up a lot quicker than the twenty five year old expected, and there was Kenzie, at the foot of her bed in the morning with a large grin plastered across her face. And now, the two of them were at the zoo. Ari held onto her daughter’s hand to keep her from running off into the crowd and getting lost.

The nine year old stepped onto the ledge and clung onto the fence before poking her nose through the hole, waiting for the brown bear to do something. “Why’s it so boring?” she asked her mum without taking her eyes off the animal. “Maybe it’s tired,” suggested Ariana. “Why don’t we come back later, sweetie? Let’s go look at the butterfly tent, you’ll love that!” “Butterflies?!” Her blue eyes widened with glee as she turned to look at Ariana. Mackenzie couldn’t help but love butterflies – their wings were so colourful and pretty and they could fly. With that, the duo joined hands and stalked off towards the butterfly tent.

Dris was holding tight to Momma May's hand, excited to be at the zoo. He hadn't been in a while, so he was extra happy. Plus, he was with his very best friend! How perfect! May asked what they wanted to do, and Dris lit up with an idea. "We can see the butterflies first, 'cause Birdy likes those, and then maybe some tigers and lions! Those are so cool!" He jumped up and down, squeaking in his rainboots. Sure, it wasn't raining now, but as he'd told Milo earlier, it could rain today, and then he'd be the most prepared! Haha!

Skylar peeked around her mother to look at her friend. He was right, she did love the butterflies. They were always so colorful, like his paintings, and his hair on a normal day. And they were tiny, like she was. The lions were nice, but they were so big. She wasn't scared of them, though, unless they roared. That could get pretty scary. She knew Dris wasn't afraid though, so she that meant she shouldn't be afraid either. Looking up at her mother, Skylar confirmed her friend's choice with a nod. Maylene smiled down at them both. "Alright, let's go then," she said, leading them through the crowds to the tent. On their way, they came across a young mother and her daughter. The girl seemed to be a year or two older than Skylar, and the mother looked to be in her mid-twenties. They were headed for the butterfly tent as well. "Lovely day for an outing to the zoo, isn't it?" she asked the woman as she waited in line to enter the tent. Skylar locked eyes with the other girl, her blue irises widening at the sight of a potential friend. That is, if Dris wanted to be friends with her, of course. Otherwise, they couldn't be friends.

Mackenzie frowned as she laid her eyes upon the line of people waiting to get into the butterfly tent. Not fair! she thought, letting out a huff as she stepped up behind the last person in line, a woman with brown hair and blue eyes – just like hers! And she brought two kids with her. At least the wait wouldn’t be so boring now.

“Mhm,” Ariana said, agreeing with the woman. “I’m glad it’s not raining.” Mackenzie glanced up at the sky, squinting at the brightness. The grey clouds finally began to clear up as this morning really looked like it was going to rain. Even if it did, the nine year old didn’t care – she was prepared with her rain jacket and boots. Mackenzie looked back at the kids in front of her, locking eyes with the girl – also sporting blue eyes. This was her chance to befriend the girl! “I’m Kenzie,” she introduced herself with a large smile. In an attempt to look more independent, the girl let go of her mum’s hand. She figured as long as she didn’t run off anywhere, Ariana wouldn’t have an issue with it. After all, she was already nine years old! That was almost double digits. Soon enough, she was going to be old enough to go to Hogwarts and cast spells and have her own wand.

Dris walked along, pointing out various animals they passed on the way to see the butterflies. As they waited in line, Miss May made a new friend. She had a daughter, probably close to their age. She seemed to only want to talk to Rider, though. Dris blinked at her, looking her up and down. He grinned when he noticed her rainboots. "I like your boots! I got mine on too! Daddy said I was silly for wearin' them, but I thought it might probably rain." He nodded, eyes wide. He wanted to make a new friend too!

Maylene smiled at the woman. She seemed friendly, and her daughter was adorable. Skylar looked at the new people, blinking at them. She wasn't good with new people, or people in general. However, Dris seemed to like her, so she couldn't be that bad. And she was wearing rain boots. Mean girls didn't wear rain boots. Sky looked to Dris shyly, then back to the girl, then down to her feet. "I'm Skylar..." she whispered. That was enough socialization for her for the rest of the week, she figured. Maylene smiled at the woman as they moved forward in line. "Oh, pardon me. My name is Maylene Macclellan, and this is my daughter, Skylar, and her friend, Driskol. Do you live in London, or are you a tourist like us?" she asked with a laugh. The line was moving a bit quicker now. They would be inside the tent in no time.

Mackenzie’s already big, toothy smiled only enlarged – if that was possible – when the boy said he liked her boots. The nine year old stuck her right leg out to the side to quickly glance down at the footwear she decided to put on that day. “I like yours, too!” she exclaimed, blue eyes targeting the rubber blue and green boots he sported. When the girl whispered her name, Kenzie looked up at her gleefully although she didn’t entirely catch her name. It was too darn loud to hear! “I really like your bunny,” she commented, gesturing to the stuffed animal that she clung onto. “But –” she continued, “I didn’t hear what you said. What’s your name?” At that moment, Mackenzie realized the boy hadn’t introduced himself, either. Blue eyes bounced between the two of them, waiting for one of the kids to pipe up. As she was entirely consumed in her conversation with Skylar and Driskol, Mackenzie hadn't heard when Maylene mentioned their names to Ariana.

Holding out her hand that had just become free from Mackenzie’s grip, she shook hands with the woman and said, in a rather hushed tone, “Ariana Hawthorne, pleased to meet you.” Her name had been becoming bigger and better known by the day, and she didn’t want to draw too much attention to herself. At least, not now. Not at the zoo while she was attempting to enjoy the day with her daughter. “No, no, I live here. Where are you visiting from, if I may ask?” The singer eyed Skylar and Driskol – both very adorable, and both somewhere around Kenzie’s age – before looking back up at Maylene and asking, “Are they both yours?” Ari moved up in line along with the others until they were finally inside the butterfly tent.

Dris looked over at Sky when she very, very quietly whispered her name. He hadn't known her to be exactly loud, but even he'd had trouble seeing the usual pink from her voice. Perhaps because it was rather loud at the busy zoo. Kenzie complemented Dris' boots, and Sky's bunny, the same one Sky loved so very much. Good, 'cause that meant Kenzie was nice. The girl said she hadn't heard Skylar, so Dris decided to help out his friend. "Her name's Skylar! But I call her Birdy. And I'm Driskol, but call me Dris, 'cause the 'kol' makes my name sound silly." He laughed, smiling brightly.

The Buddy System, Aunt Anthea called it, and he quite liked it, because it meant that none of them was going to get lost. Though, he would have liked if being there with his sisters didn't mean they were subject to the will of his eldest sister. She'd insisted that she'd won the round of rock paper scissors fair and square, but he knew he'd seen her switch her choice from rock to scissors at the very last second, after he and Finny had both thrown paper. Because she'd won, though, it meant that she'd gotten to choose where they went first, which had resulted in them heading towards the big cats enclosures. Sherwood rather liked cats, of course, but he had wanted to start with the monkeys and apes. He'd originally wanted to do the aquarium first, but Chrys had pointed out they should save that for later, when it was hot, so that they could take advantage of the air conditioning. Not that it was very hot this time of year, but it hadn't gotten totally cooled down just yet.

                                                          spaceThe child clutched tighter to his aunt's hand when another child around his age pointed at him, blushing. The other boy was saying something to the man he was with, apparently finding something about him very interesting. The man turned to look, and scowled, responding to the child. Sher couldn't hear what they were saying, of course, but obviously something about him was bothering the older gentleman, who looked positively furious. He couldn't imagine why, though! He didn't think anything about his appearance was particularly offensive, was it? He sped up his pace enough to tap on his sister's shoulders, first Chrys, then Finny. "That man was mad at me," he said, obviously distraught.

                                                          spaceChrys glanced over her shoulder, frowning. "What man?" she asked, and he pointed. His older sister, in her infinite wisdom, blew a raspberry towards the man, which only made him look more angry. "You didn't do anything to him, he's a jerk," the pink-haired girl declared. "Right, Finny?" She looked to their middle sibling for confirmation. Obviously he was a jerk; Sher was a sweetheart, he never did anything to make anyone mad. She was the one that made people mad. Anyone who could find a reason to be mad at their little brother was obviously a jerk, at least to her mind.

Lay down your head and I'll sing you a lullaby;
Back to the years of loo-li lai-lay.
And I'll sing you to sleep and I'll sing you tomorrow...
Bless you with love for the road that you go;
May you sail far to the fair fields of fortune,
With diamonds and pearls at your head and your feet!
And may you need never to banish misfortune;
May you find kindness in all that you meet.

The only reason Finny hadn't stumbled yet was because she was holding onto her sister's hand, which served to anchor. Otherwise she would have, because she was swiveling her head like an owl, trying to take everything in, as if she were at carnival or festival of some sort, rather than on a simple outing to the zoo. However, the outing wasn't so simple, seeing as she couldn't remember the last time she'd been to the zoo, and she and her siblings weren't very often allowed out like this, especially in muggle London. She'd been mesmerized by the bustling, massive city itself, not that she'd seen very much of it, as they'd arrived quite near the zoo, having not used muggle transportation. Finny didn't think she'd ever ridden on a bus or train. Far too dirty. And a car? Of course not. The cars had almost frightened her, seeing them this close. She'd pretended they were giant monsters, growling as they rushed past, to calm down.

But now they were in the zoo itself. Finny had wanted to see the aquarium right off the bat, but Chrys had said they'd go to that later, due to how it would be cooler in there because of the air conditioning, and given how warm it was outside. Her itchy cardigan was knotted around the waist of her dress, the sun was shining down on them so brightly. So they were going to see the big cats first, and she was imagining what they would look like. Would their eyes glow in the dark? She hoped so. Her favorite big cat was probably a snow leopard, but she didn't know if the zoo had one, or if it would be doing much of anything without any snow. Finny glanced back at Sher when he tapped on her and Chrys to get their attention. He looked upset. "What man?" she asked in confusion at the same time her sister did, and stared while Chrys blew a raspberry.

While it wasn't as if she never ever got scolded by adults, the intense disapproval the man seemed to be radiating made her feel very nervous, as if she'd done something terribly wrong. Oh no, now she'd feel like this all day, she was sure of it. This always happened to her. Something made her uncomfortable and it took her ages to 'let it go', as everyone was always saying she needed to learn to do. Finny felt that was easier said than done. "I wish he'd stop looking," she said miserably in response to Chrys' question, then thought she ought to say something positive to make Sher feel better. "Maybe he's just not- not a very nice person. Like a mountain troll," she reasoned. Some people were just unpleasant; she knew that from fairy tales. "Or a jerk."

To guide you each step of the way...
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm.
May you bring love and may you bring happiness;
Be loved in return to the end of your days!
Now fall off to sleep, I'm not meaning to keep you...
I'll just sit for a while and sing loo-li, lai-lay...

                                                          spaceSher frowned when Chrys blew the raspberry, causing the man to scowl harder. He hadn't wanted to get any more attention from the man! But, of course Chrys had to have a word in, she was always like that. Their aunt's hand tightened on his, and he looked up to see her glaring in the man's direction. "Don't mind him, dears," she said, tone cold. "He has no business staring at you. You've done nothing to him. If he continues making you all uncomfortable, I'll be sure to return the favor."

                                                          spaceSher tugged on her hand, shaking his head rapidly to insist that she shouldn't do anything of the sort. But, of course, Chrys disagreed; the pink-haired girl grinned up at their aunt like she'd hung the moon, nodding. "Yeah! Give 'em a piece of your mind, Aunt Anthea!" she declared, causing the older woman to chuckle. Sher buried his face in his free hand, wishing he hadn't said anything. He didn't want them to cause any trouble; he just wanted to enjoy the trip to the zoo. This was why he didn't like outings; people always stared at them, people always made ugly looks. He didn't understand why; he and Finny never did anything wrong. Chrys did sometimes, but usually she had to be provoked, it wasn't ever because she just wanted to cause trouble. Not in public, anyway.

                                                          spaceAnthea, noting her nephew's discomfort, squeezed his hand gently, her expression softening. "I'm sorry, Sherwood," she told him. "We'll just go the other way, alright? Come on, the jaguars are this way, anyway." She pointed, indicating the direction opposite the one the man and boy were going. "That's what you wanted to see, right, Chrys? Jaguars?"

                                                          spaceChrys jumped lightly, carefully not to let her exuberance knock her sister off-balance. "Yes! The brochure says they've got a solid black one! Black jaguars are the coolest! They live in trees, you know," the last bit stated matter-of-factly, her nose tilting upwards and her expression mimicking that of their mother when she was giving them a lesson. "Normal jaguars live in trees, too," Sherwood said quietly, and she huffed. "Yeah, but the black ones look cooler," she retorted, as if this made all the difference in the world. Sher sighed, not understanding in the least, and knowing he probably wouldn't. Chrys was weird. She liked weird stuff, for weird reasons.

Finny wasn't used to hearing Aunt Anthea, who was normally so happy, use such a cold tone; it was unsettling, although she was glad to hear an adult reiterate that whatever he was angry about, it wasn't their fault. "Maybe he's angry because his son doesn't have pretty hair like Sher," she suggested thoughtfully. After all, the little boy who'd pointed's hair was a rather dull mousy brown, while her own brother's hair was a soft powdery blue. She gave Sher a sympathetic look as he hid his face; she didn't want there to be any sort of conflict either- she hated it when people argued, and adults arguing were even worse. Luckily her own parents never seemed to argue much, or at least not where she could hear them, but to the seven year old watching adults bicker was like watching giants tussle- what if you got stepped on while they weren't paying attention? Finny frowned at Chrys when she cheered their aunt on, but looked visibly relieved when the woman apologized and suggested they go the other way. She still felt uncomfortable, but at least moving away from the angry man made the feeling lessen a bit. She halfheartedly jumped with her sister, but felt some of her previous excitement flood back in at the mention of jaguars, especially ones in trees. "Do you think they look sort of like- sort of like... finxes?" She meant 'sphinxes', and while of course she knew what a jaguar looked like, she had always wondered what sort of big cat a sphinx was, and if she'd ever see on in a zoo.

                                                          spaceSher clapped his hands over his head when Finny suggested that it was because of his hair. Why would his hair make someone angry? That made no sense! Except Chrys, because she hated having pink hair, she wanted blue like him and Finny. "He could make his son's hair pretty, though!" the boy replied, looking up at his aunt. "Couldn't he?" Sher knew that they were currently in a place where not everyone they saw would have magic, but, being six, he still hadn't quite figured out the difference between things that were magic and things that were not. Why a bird flying was not magic, but a broom flying was, perplexed him. His aunt smiled faintly, and shrugged. "Muggles have ways of changing their hair, yes," she replied. "But, it's not something they like to do to children, I don't believe. It can hurt their hair, and make it all fall out." At this, Sher gasped, and the hands on the top of his head clutched tighter. "It falls out?! That's awful!" he declared, and his aunt nodded. If that was the case, then perhaps the man really was jealous! He couldn't make his son's hair pretty without making it fall out, meanwhile their hair was pretty naturally. His aunt's hair, of course, matched his eldest sister's, and he and Finny had almost the same shade of blue. It was strange to him, that muggles didn't have such pretty hair colors. Their hair wasn't magic, after all, it was just hair! ... Wasn't it?

                                                          spaceChrys hummed impatiently, then darted forward, tugging her sister behind her. "Jaguars aren't like sphinxes," she replied, trying to make the others run with her so she could see the cats sooner. "They're somethin' else. They've got people-faces, but... uh... Lions! They're lions, aren't they, Aunt Anthea?" The older woman smiled faintly, and nodded. "Yes, Chrys, they're lions," she said softly. "Now, slow down; your brother's legs aren't as long as yours, you know." The smallest child nodded, frowning at his older sister, who huffed in aggravation, but relented. Sher paused as they passed an enclosure, tugging on his aunt's hand. "What's that one?" he asked curiously, pointing at the cat inside. It had spots, and lots of different cats had spots. Tigers he knew, they were striped, and other cats didn't have stripes (except house cats, but he knew the difference between those and a big cat, obviously). Anthea looked at the creature a moment, then smiled. "That's a cheetah," she told him. Chrys had stopped then, as well, and was staring at the creature in awe. "Cheetah are the fast ones!" she declared for her brother, and Anthea nodded, prompting a small 'oooooh' from the boy. Sher thought he might like to be a cheetah. Chrys preferred the big cats with bulky muscles. But he liked the thin, lithe ones, the ones that looked graceful and sneaky. The ones that were stronger than they looked.
