((OOPS )

His expression was once again confused... Did the dog and the duchess say the exact same thing at the same time?

They didn't. Nope.

Ollie lifts his head up from enjoying the multiple scritches he's receiving to smile at Caecilius. "Ooh, are there marshmallows? I like marshmallows," he borked.

"Owwy!" Rosy suddenly chimed as Ollie introduced himself.

Cris burst into irrefrenable laughs. "Oh stars... I guess that conts as her second word after Bazucc", she commented, with a bemused twinkle in her eyes. She remembered every of her kids first words and each time felt just as proud!

"There are indeed!" Caelus confirms. "And we're reliably informed that they aren't cursed, which is the ideal state for a marshmallow to be in, in my opinion. Would you like one?" He plucked one out of the basket to offer it to Ollie.

Umbra's eyes sparkle at the doggo rushing in and scaring off the dragon... good boy in sight... must spoil! "oh you want a marshmellow?! catch!" she throws the totally-not-cursed corrupted, I mean, 'purple flavoured' marshmellow to Ollie

Na'aiyah just munched on her marshmallows, watching the others. Still a tad confused what exactly a dog was.

Ollie practically turns his head upsidedown as he smiles at Rosy, enjoying hearing his own name. But then there's marshmallows! He slobber-slimes it out of Caecilius' hand, smacking away at the sticky treat noisily, nearly going cross eyed as he leaps to catch the second one out of the air.

The Duchess moved to sit down next to Na'aiyah, smiling at her. "What is your greatest hope for this evening, friend?"

"Huh?" The elven lady turned her head. "My greatest hope?" She asked, unsure what exactly she meant.

After he used his handkerchief to de-slobber his hand, Caelus applauded Ollie's catching of the marshmallow, watching with interest and a touch of concern as he also devoured the purple one, but he looked to Umbra. "Your magic is remarkable. Did you study, or is it innate, if it's not a terribly impolite thing to ask?"

"Yes. What brought you to this gathering? What did your heart hope to find here?"

"Oh.. hm.. I suppose to see something new?" She asked, still somewhat pondering the question.

This brings a barely restrained smile to The Duchess' lips. She tilts her head. "I see. And... did you see something that was new to you?"

Rosy giggled as Ollie turned his head around to smile at her, then did her own attempt of a fox head tilt, chittering happily.

"This is my youngest baby", Cris explained to Ollie, smiling as she ruffled Rosy's fur. "You may call her Rosy."

"Owwy!" Rosie giggled and clapped her tiny hands.

"Personally, I came here in hopes of a new adventure and, well, I definitely got that!" He said, answering it as well.

"A lot." She chuckled. "But.. i think that golden creature might take the cake." Her hand lifted to point at Ollie.

"Herro Rosy," Ollie attempts to say through a mouth of saliva and half-masticated marshmallow. He drags his sticky tongue up Rosie's cheek, leaving a smear of wet, purple sugar behind.

Umbra hears Caecilius' question and heads over to him "oh don't worry dear! it's not impoilite at all... in truth is a bit of both~ I was born with great magic powers and I also studied it... and also acquired it~" she explains "honestly, I'm a bit of magic fanatic... but it's a secret!" she gives him a playful wink "what about yourself, dear?" Umbra asks with curiosity
