The Sunspire everafter

as all of okeanos' short life thus far has been spent in communual den spaces, he is unbothered by this particular merge, content as always to do as he's told. the anxiety lingering around ibis makes him worried -- there's a strange smell on her that he doesn't know that makes him want to hide under mama. instead he squeezes as close to his dandelion puff sister as possible, a contrasting ball of smoke. she is loud where he is more reserved but as she starts to call for mama he tries to soothe her, paying little attention yet to the adult present, who he does not know well but automatically trusts. "is'kay," the little gentlemen says, repeating rannoch, "ibby 'kay, oke-no here, mama 'bee come?" this last question is directed at the comforting adult presence, certain he will manifest their mother for them (or mamma oly, oke wouldn't mind her, either).
