Leaning over she kisses his cheek. "That's okay... lying is bad anyway... Mama says so and Daddy, too. Kero, is it really important for Ari to do this stuff? Really important?"

*Kero nods*
Exceedingly, Mara. It only seems like she was having fun. The part of her she can't control wasn't up for anything today. It's like magic, kiddo. Some days you can bend it and twist it all you want, and others it will say "Screw you, I'm tired."

"But Daddy says it isn't magic...." she grumbles testily.

It isn't, but it's the best analogy I can come up with.

"What is it, exactly. Daddy says she takes after him in some things and I take after him in others, but he really didn't explain it very well. I tried asking Mama about it, but all he told me was that magic works with stuff outside the body and Ari works with stuff inside the body, namely her head. It didn't make much sense."

*Kero nods, and begins explaining about Psionics and the powers they wielded*

She listens intently, "So what kind of psionic power does she have... or is it like walking and running and jumping and such. You don't know what you are good at until you try it?"

Exactly. I am an Empath, which means I am sensitive to the emotions of others. I don't know her powers yet.

"I... I wish I had some special power... but I guess I'm just me, huh... nothing special about me..."

You're the first in a long time to make me self-conscious, if that's any consolation. Mara, you are special, extremely so, because you Don't have magic. It's a hard hard path, kiddo.

She smiles at him, not quite believing him, but grateful he is going out of his way to attempt to make her feel better.

Don't believe me, huh? And don't look surprised, I'm your big brother...even if I didn't always know when someone was lying, I would know with you, baby sister.

She shrugs. "I didn't say anything." she reminds him with a twisted grin.

Just heading any thought like that off at the pass, sister dear. Now, how should we finish your hair tonight?

"I always braid it to keep it from getting tangled." she replies, then she giggles. "Of course I've only just learned how to braid. I haven't had hands all that long... or hair this long either. It feels weird sometimes... living like this... walking on four was so much easier."
