The kio had been here before and was set out on a mission. She knew she was pregnant - but it was still early days and she wanted to make the journey before she was particularly far along. She just needed to find a legendary to help her! She'd stopped and spoken to every animal she'd seen - none had answered. Whether they were regular animals or legendaries who simply didn't want to help - she couldn't say but it didn't stop her continuing.

There suddenly came a rustling.

The sound of something sprinting through the underbrush with haste, heading right towards her. There was no escaping, no turning to run, it arrived too fast, BURSTING OUT from the bushes with an echoing KAAKAAWWW!

The bright marshfowl came to a skidding halt, feathers fluffed out, wings extended, bright glowing eyes gazing upon his new blessee.

Oh.

He drooped, just a little. He was getting better. Sort of. Only a little disappointed. At least the ears were cute.

Watch Me squawked a greeting at the Kiokote and puffed out his chest, placing his wing across his chest as he declared his undying loyalty and desire to bless her offspring blah blah blah the usual. It all just came out in chicken speak.

[lolternative]

Spring stumbled back as the chicken approached her after its abrupt and chaotic arrival. The chicken definitely seemed different compared to the other animals she'd spoken to. Mostly, it wasn't running away in horror but that didn't really mean much. Her brow quirked as it clucked and crowed at her.

"Ar-are you a legendary? Can you bless my children?" She asked, hopefully. "If you can - I don't have anything particular to ask! Whatever you would bestow on them is fine," she smiled softly before quickly adding "unless it's something bad."

[Ruriska]

Wow, how rude, Watch Me thought, as she clearly hadn’t been listening to him at all. He’d just explained his purpose here very thoroughly and quite elegantly and - oh, right. His feathers that had begun puffing out, smoothed up again as he realized his teeny tiny mistake. He gave the marshfowl equivalent of a cough.

Then he was simply a Kiokote, this time with surprisingly little fanfare. Just one second a bird and the next a kin, his brow arched slightly.

“Bad? Whyever would I give them something bad? I don’t think anybody does that.” He frowned. “Do they? I’ll talk to the MotherFather about it. It shouldn’t be allowed. Even if I don’t like somebody, making their children ugly wouldn’t solve the problem, would it?”

He shook his head.

“Anyway moving on, yes, I am a Legendary.” He puffed out his chest. “I am Watch Me! I am here to bless your unborn children with - oh nevermind, the speech I gave before was so much better but you couldn’t understand a word of it,” he grumbled.

To top it all off, she didn’t even have a request. Just whatever which was fine, he liked a humble lady and blank slate normally but -

“Okay sure, I hope your children are born able to understand others, with the patience and wisdom to know when to listen and to ask the right questions. How’s that?” It was just a little snarky.
