she is satisfied with this, and then sits on the ground next to him, laying out the coloring book and positioning it so he can color on the page next to her own. her tongue pokes out in concentration, trying to keep all the colors in the lines.
He was prepared to politely decline but when she puts it upon herself to gather the supplies and share he can’t bring himself to say no. Clearly this is serious business and it would be insensitive not to accept this offer. β€œI solemnly swear to avoid making any holes.”

she looks at the ground, poking at the sandy dirt in the patch. "he knows i'm here," she says, though it's not... entirely honest. he knows she's *nearby.* maybe just... less nearby than he thinks. she got bored sitting in the office while her daddy and doctor shepherd talked!
he notices the change in texture of her skin, and he can only smile more. " looks like you got her soft spot, you and your daddy both. " good. it's something she's needed .. something to crack that witch-esq exterior. his head tilts, " does your dad know you're out here ? "

she frowns. "do you want to color? coloring makes me feel better." before he can answer, she's walking back to the desk, climbing up the chair to grab her coloring book and crayons. she walks back with her prizes with all the severity of a storm, sitting down next to him and +
She’s smart and as he said before observant. He wouldn’t be one bit surprised if the next trait was stubborn. At least that’s familiar. β€œY’know… Something *did* happen. Made me feel a lot of things.” He twiddles with the lollipop in his hand. A smoke isβ€”

offering them like sacred treasures. "i don't let daddy color with me," she intones, "because his claws poke holes in the paper, and he can't hold crayons right." just so he understands how serious she is about all this, clearly.

she nods, taking the advice under deeply serious advisement. "i will let him know." she blinks, squinting a little, and then frowns. "you're still sad. did something happen?"
β€œIt sounds to me you’ve already got it handled. Maybe add it in every now and then.” Dom’s smile is small and held tight. He had dreams of feeling like she does. Dreams of seeing someone like a parent he could feel that way toward. None come to mind. Maybe his aunt but evenβ€”

she nods. "i want to be a painter. i think it would be fun."
β€œgotcha. wasn’t sure what his job was. I like sorting, too,” they say with a bigger smile. β€œdo you like drawing?”

she shakes her head, working on her second loth-cat. "he's not a doctor like miss doctor shepherd. sometimes he helps her out at the clinic, but they always give me a job, too. i like sorting flimsis."
hurt her? no. never. if anything, they’d protect her. β€œnice to meet you, lily. I’ve met your daddy a couple times. he’s good people.” a glance towards the clinic. β€œhe with a patient?”

It turns out, if you want to save a species, you don’t spend your time staring at the bird you want to save. You look at the things it relies on to live instead. You ask if there is enough to eat & drink. You ask if there is a safe place to sleep. Is there enough here to survive?

she nods, black-blue curls bobbing as she does around her little round face. "mhm. she gives me a lollipop after our checkups and tells me to put lotion on my scutes. she cares a lot about me and daddy." she lifts her arm, pats her scaly elbow.
" mm, wellβ€” consider that a secret to keep in your pocket. " keep it in her arsenal until she needs to use it. " she isnt serious all the time, I'm sure .. she's a good woman, she cares. "

her nose wrinkles further. "i don't think she's ticklish. miss doctor shepherd is really serious." she tries to imagine tickling doctor shepherd's sides, and shakes her head. sure, she laughs when her daddy talks to her, but he can make anyone laugh.
he smiles, " she's incredibly ticklish, " he replies. " a little poke to her side will have her in a fit of giggles and at your mercy in no time. "

she squints, staring at them for a long moment, and then nods once, decisive. they won't hurt her. they feel kind. "my name is lily. my daddy is gus." she points to the clinic. "he's in there right now."
yeah? they’re pretty cool critters. very loving with the people they choose. [ they roll their shoulders. ] haven’t seen you around before. I’m eve.

she brightens and nods, curls bouncing. "mhm! my daddy says i got my mama's eyes." her nose wrinkles. "but my eyes are the same color as his, so i don't know. he says mama's eyes are blue." she lets go of the lollipop, folding her hands in front of her in the poof of her dress.+
Any other occasion he’d have a bubbly personality to match the sweet nature of such a kid but he’s simply exhausted. Eyes red from tears he barely shed. So no he’s not as bright as he likes to be but he does break into a genuine smile when she holds out the treat. β€”

"i tell him i love him everyday. is that the same? should i tell him he does a good job? he tells me that all the time."

she pokes at the dirt a little more, looking up when he takes off his helmet. she likes his face better than the flat helmet. his eyes are nice. "if it's a secret, she's prolly keeping it for a reason," she intones, though her nose wrinkles.
her doctor? shepherd? he nods slowly, his palms clicking the latch to free the helmet from his shoulders so he could set it aside. " doctor shepherd is rather brilliant .. do you want to know a little secret about her she doesn't tell anyone? "

thank you. [ a little shy wave of her own fingers. ] i want one when i get older.
[ eve offers her a lopsided smile, a couple fingers lifted in an approximation of a wave. ] hey. I like your drawing.

"daddy's in the office," she says softly. she looks up at his helmet, then back down at her drawing. "he's talking to my doctor, and then he'll be back." maybe it can have a friend, too. she starts on making another, smaller tooka next to it.
it's not an unusual reaction. kids, unless their parents were part of the senate, were usually off put when in his presence. while painful, it's only natural. he can't fault her for that. he steps back a touch before kneeling, " hey little'un .. where are you'd parents ? "

a little whisker here, and then some clawed toes... she looks up--and stiffens a little, chewing at her lip, before looking back down at the ground. just behave, lily. they won't know anything's weird unless you tell 'em. that's what daddy says, after all. she goes back to +
[ oh gods where are her PARENTS?! ] out of habit, he idly stands close by to at least accompany her until her parent(s) returns. but he glances over at the dirt drawing, smiling when he sees it's of a tooka with an exceedingly curly tail.

drawing, poking at the dirt a little slower now.

[ another moment, and then she's giving a little curl to the cat's tail with her finger, pulling it away and wiping the dirt off on her poofy dress. only then does she look up, blinking at the stranger. ] hello.
[ after a while, eve drops to the ground to sit and crosses their legs. they don’t want to disturb her flow, obviously, despite their curiosity. ]

[ not looking up. her little tongue is held in tight concentration between her lips, eyes narrowed at her masterpiece: a stick-figure loth-cat. ]
[ towering nearby to her, head tilted to the side. there’s nothing but curiosity in their face. ]
