Welcome to Gaia! ::

Asuna blinked looked at the fairy dragon and tried to speak keeping hir tongue sticking out "Athuna" Shi had the look of 'ewwww that tasted nasty' on hir face as the fairy dragon did in fact has a disgusting bitter taste. Shi kept hir focus on Kya

The dragon smiles gently at her. "Follow me, Asuna. I'll show ye where the pool is and maybe this will help you remember this is a classroom, not a cafeteria... no sampling the plants in this greenhouse, some are rather dangerous to felines."

Hearing Kero's voice, Kya looks to him and smiles. "My but you have such a large family, Kero. I see you are following in Mama and Papa's footsteps. How many have you taken in in total.... I've given up counting the number of brothers and sisters I have."

She leads them to the pool and nods down. "Rinse yer mouth out well, Asuna... won't kill it completely, but it will help then.." She flies to a patch of mint and asks Kero to pick a few leaves. "Have her chew on a bit of this... to get rid of the rest. I need to go greet mt class."

Nodding to Kya, Kero gently plucks the best of the mint leaves, crushing them in his hand to release their oils before he hands them to Asuna. As he does, he tells her to gently chew them and then spit them out when the flavor grows bitter.

"That should get rid of the taste entirely, Kitten. I promise you, it'll do a lot of good."

As she chewed, Kero gently gathered her into his arms once more, letting her wash the taste from her mouth as he held her close to his heart.

"Asu, do you want me as your father? I know you were surprised when I said I was, but I want to be your Daddy...I love you, little one. I want to be there for you."

While Kero tends to Asuna, Kya flies to the circle of students and lands on Mr. Pargutin's shoulder. "Well well... what a fine looking group of younglings you have brought me this year, my friend. Pray tell, have ye conveniently forgotten to tell them about me as you usually do?" she teases, seeing the eyes of each and everyone of them go wide with surprise.

Kerobian smiles at Asuna, hugging her close as he chuckles to himself, though inwardly he is raging, and praying that he never meets these "Men In White Coats." If he does...things will probably get rather sticky. But for now, he has to focus on the little kitten between his arms, and hug her tight as he answers her questions.

"A Daddy and father are the same thing, sweetie. They are males who help to take care of children, together with a Mommy, or a female. I want to be your Daddy...that is, I want to take care of you. To help you grow up to be a fine kitty. But only if you want me to care for you." he tells her, and gently hugs her even closer, to soothe away any fears she might have.

Meanwhile, Mr. Parguntin is laughing at Kyara. "Why, you wound me so with such accusations, mistress. I have never forgotten to tell the class what you were...or did I, this time? And hey...how do you know Lord Kerobian? He seemed quite familiar with you."

Kero nods, hugging her close, as he carries her back out to rejoin the class, who are now oohing and aahing at Kyara...some of them. Others, like Billy and Joe, are hanging back, clearly plotting mischief, of a sort.

Kya has been teaching for many years now and is quite familiar with the shenanigans of young boys, but Agro's open outright question takes her by surprise. Blinking she rears back her tail arched and ready.

"I would think not... How could I teach if you were to eat me?" Then seeing his confusion, she laughs. "Besides, you must be Agro, right? Do you always go around eating relatives? Even if they are so through fostering and adoption? I'm your aunt, little one... Ask your daddy about me."
