"I just like to hear you say it." As she said that, she gently and softly pushed him to lay down, and she curled up along his side, under his arm.

He gave a quick, cheeky grin. "Evil woman." Red didn't protest when she pushed him to lay down. Pulling up his feet a bit so that they weren't stretched over the edge. That usually lead to leg cramps and very uncomfortable stretching of the muscles. His arm instantly curled around her as he pulled her close. Adjusting his laying position so that he was on his side a bit to be able to look at her while they lay there.

"Does it seem silly to you that my main thought to spend time with you is always alone?" She smiled meekly. It was true. Being with him was all she was ever wanting to do. Was that so bad though? "I suppose I haven't been good at finding other ways to entertain you."

"Not really." He kissed her forehead lightly before pulling back to look at her. "From what I've seen. When someone cares deeply enough for someone they usually want to spend all the time they can with the other. Usually alone because more things can be done and said without others prying eyes and open ears around."

Yayoi White's eyes turned back to looking outside. She herself had never had much interest in playing music. Her brother tried, but gave up after a while. Though she supposed that perhaps one of the new god babies would eventually pick it up. "Maybe. I dunno, you'd have to talk to him about it. He might be up to it..."
She gave a little shrug at his last comment. Though really didn't have much to say about it. Emotions as of late just felt draining and encumbering sometimes. Perhaps it was something from her 'running' away that started it all. But maybe not. Who knew? She herself was still a bit confused about it anyway. Satin smiled. "I'll ask when you go to see the children." He said, picking a tune. "That way you won't be alone." He put his flute to his lips and started playing a soft tune. **I am so sorry for not responding for so long. I completely forgot. ^^U**

[[My, I haven't been here in a long time.]]
Diem wandered along a path that led to a magnificent beautiful temple. She had heard from others that this was the temple of the Wine deity, Rhesos and his family. Finally building up enough courage to go inside, she looked around and took in the beautiful decor. The building alone was intimidating enough, so she didn't kow if she'd be able to handle facind Rhesos himself. Diem panicked and took a long hop back towards the door. "No... I just can't do this, it's too much for me, there's no way I could compose myself in front of someone so powerful."

It had been a long time since anyone new had entered the Temple of Wine. Too long it seemed. Though despite that fact, the temple was still as pristine and emasculate as it had been the day it's doors opened to the mortals.
A soft breeze carrying little leaves blew past the Hopper. As it trying to invite her in and keep her from leaving.
In the main hall of the temple, the youngest twins had been left to their own devices. Large violet colored pillows were strewn about, a long with toys and other things that a baby might fancy.
Merlot giggled loudly as she clapped her tiny paws together. Her little wreath of leaves about her head slumping forward lightly until she pushed it back up again. Fluttering her leaf like wings, they made a soft rustling noise as she did so. Picking up a small red ball, she hurled it across the room and watched as it bounced from one wall to the other before she giggled more.
Orvieto on the other hand, had found himself a nice, comfortable spot on one of the larger pillows. Through lazy eyes, he watched his sister throw the ball. It zipped this way and that and as if it almost had a mind of it's own started to speed back towards Merlot. Though the silly girl hadn't really caught one that it was about to bean her in the head.
Giving a flick of his tail, a small cluster of leaves formed around the ball and stopped it only a few inches short of hitting his sister in the head.
The little goddess let out a squeal as she raised up her arms to protect herself, but soon lowered them spying that her sibling had stopped the ball in time and let out a sigh. "Gud catch, gud catch Orvi!"
Letting out a small sigh, Orvieto shook his head and let the ball drop as soon as his tail hit the pillow. "No call meh Orvi. Yous know meh hates vat." He said before letting out a loud yawn and rolling over onto his back. Letting one of his legs dangle off the edge of the pillow.

Diem turned around right before she was about to step out, when she heard children giggling and playing. Could it be that Rhesos had babies? She decided to let the fact that she was a little intimidated go, and went to find the children. She just loved babies, and it would be fun if she could watch them. She hadn't had the chance to babysit in the longest time.
Almost without effort she began hopping around hoping to find the children. "Hello? Is anybody around?" She continued deeper into the main hall hoping that she could find someone, when she spotted two little babies sprawled out on large violet pillows. She didn't know whether to approach them or not, so she kept a safe distance. "Oh," she bowed with respect and began speaking again, "Hello there. I am Diem."

At the sound of someone speaking, both kits fell silent and quickly turned their heads towards the new comer.
Orvieto mostly just changed his position slightly on his own pillow. The tip of his tail tapping in a monotonous rhythm as he watched her silently. The two had never met anyone else outside of their own family. Happily living in the blissful confinement of their own father's temple.
Merlot's ear twitched as did her leafy wings. Her eyes searched the hopper up and down curiously as she made no motion to move. "Greetings..." She said it fairly clearer than her recent babble. Proper addressings of mortals was always something her parents had driven into their little heads. Even if they were young, they needed to know the proper way to approach such creatures as themselves.

Diem's jaw dropped when she heard the baby speak so flawlessly. They were deities, but still, she had never heard anything speak so well at such a young age. Out of respect to the two young ones, she dropped to her knees and bowed her head. After a moment in silence she lifter her head, but remained on her knees a fair distance away from the babies. She took in their appearances, the boy seemed anxious or impatient by his continued tapping of his tail. Not knowing what to say she offered herself to the temple, "I bring no gifts, no offerings for you. Yet I bring something I hope we can benefit from, myself. I w-w-wish... to become a follower here."

Eying the Hopper a bit more, Merlot wrinkled her nose. "Thens you want tuh speak to Daddy." She tried to continue to speak clearly, but occasionally it would slip. The little goddess was still learning and mostly kept her babble to Orvi or her parents. Taking in a deep breath she yelled. "DADDDDDDYYYYYYY!!!" Her voice echoed through out the large hall. Small tinkling noises seemed to come from the gold leaf decorations on the walls that had reverberated during her yell. She had a decent pair of lungs that was for sure.
Orvieto yawned and turned his head away from the female. Burying his nose into the pillow and closing his eyes. His sister's yell having no effect on him. He was used to it. Though his body language seemed lazy and aloof, his tail continued to tap against the edge of the pillow.
There was silence as everything settled. An almost dead silence for a few seconds before a flurry of leaves appeared behind the twins. The sweet scent of wine filled the air as a large pure stepped out of the leaves which instantly shot away from his body then disappeared into thin air. But of course, this was no ordinary pure. This was the God of Wine, Rhesos. His large green wings were testimate to his equally larger size. A similar wreath of leaves graced his head as did the little Goddess'. Deep violet eyes peeked out from beneath the shadow of his bangs which hung over them.
Looking down, his wings came forward almost like a shawl or the top of a cape to cover his shoulders. "Merlot. What have I told you about yelling? Please use your indoor voice." His voice was soft and caring, but still had that tinge of sternness to it.
Merlot giggled and covered her mouth quickly before she pointed at Diem with a tiny finger. "You hafs a visitooor."

Diem soon realized that the baby girl wasn't as eloquent as she had first assumed. She cringed as the loud noise of the baby screaming reverberated in her head. She was shocked at how it barely effected the other baby. She watched in awe as Rhesos appeared, him being nearby gave Diem chills. She had never experienced so much power before her. She smiled, trying to hide her fear and began speaking, "I'm the visitor she speaks of. I hope I'm not intruding, I just was thinking about pursuing the possibility of becoming a follower here."

Picking up Merlot, he swung her around then up and onto his shoulder before his eyes locked onto the Hopper again, a soft yet aloof grin set onto his face. "Your name, m'dear?" His long tail flopped against the marbled floor behind him as he gave his wings a quick ruffle. A few small feathers descending to the floor then disappearing just as the leaves had.
Merlot giggled happily as she was swung about then plopped onto her father's shoulder. Her little feet hung over his shoulder, kicking back and forth as she listened to the grown ups speaking. "Yes, a name would be n..n...nwi...nice." The little kit stuck her tongue out at the corner of her mouth before tilting her head to the side, giving her brother a quick glance. "Orvi wake ups. Portent busssinessss..."
The little god glanced up at his father then to his sister who had situated herself onto the God's shoulder. He rolled his eyes lightly then rolled over on his pillow so that his back was to them all. He hated that name. And this mortal was cutting into his nap time.

Diem watched what happened carefully hoping not to interrupt any important family business. It seemed the little girl was more outgoing and talkative than the boy, but she'd barely been around so it wasn't a clear assumption. Finally realizing she had been asked a question, she tried stammering out an answer, "My n-n-name? It is Diem." When she finished saying her name she bowed her head in respect. Hopefully he wanted her name to know who she was, not to put it on a grave stone when he killed her for doing something wrong.

"Diem is it? An interesting name, indeed." Reaching over, he tickled the bottom of one of Merlot's feet. Rhesos studied the hopper for a moment with a curious eyebrow raised. "Why do you feel the need to become a follower in my temple? Surely you Hoppers have your own deity to worship, am I correct?" Placing a finger against his nose, he gave it a quick rub before his paw traveled down to his chin, giving it a few strokes in thought. He might not have been as savvy on the current goings on in the world like Grapes was, but at least he was some what informed of any new Gods or Goddesses who appeared at random.
