(Was what just her hoof?.. ;;..Um, I don't know, I was making the transformation from her hoof heart being a hoof, to the libra sign..:x..To represent her power.)

(lol)
Razz looked down at the foal wrapped around his ankle and tried not to laugh. Seeing that she much preferred the purple blanket (and who could blame her?), he grabbed it from the pile.
"Ah, a wise choice, muffin," he said, and wrapped her up in it. "Would you like to sit up on the bed next to Charm?" He patted a spot on the bed.

A gust of cold air whooshed in as more ponies entered the nursery. For half a second she recoiled. They didn’t look bad. Razz and Kail didn’t seem to mind their presence. Returning to the edge of the bed, she peered down.
Charm smiled widely at Sherbet. The older foal was so bright! Half-prancing in place Charm bobbed her head up and down measuring the distance from the bed to the floor. Before anyone had time to react she leaped from the bed and landed with a small thud as she hit the floor. Shaking her white and light green mane from her eyes she stood up.
“Hi!” Charm exclaimed quite delighted to see another foal, “I’m Charm.”
It was than that she spotted the other foal. So many other kids to play with. Charm could hardly believe it.

Razz looked at Kail and gave her a wink. It looked like Charm was going to be just fine. All she would need was a little time to adjust and someone to take her home. Razz gave a small sigh as he thought back on his own youth. Life must go on...

Kail gave a small laugh as Goody attached herself to Razz's leg instead. "Looks like your gonna make a good daddy someday Razz - children love you!" She then heard a loud thump and turned to see Charm on the floor. "Oh my goddness, it looks like she's gonna be another Explosion."
Sherbet Explosion was excited that the new foal was so friendly! "Hello Charm! Are you gonna live here with Kail and me? Kail is alot of fun when you make her be." Had she been able to, the little filly would have shook her tail like a dog in her excitement.
Sherbet hadn't noticed the third foal until she followed Charms gaze to her. Another one! She squeaked in excitement. Running over with wide eyes and a wider smile she gave a bright hello.

Charm half hopped towards Sherbet. Warmed up, the little pegasus was feeling playful. Crouching down she wiggled as though about to pounce.
"I-I-I ..." Charm began looking towards the adults.
She had no idea where she'd be staying or with who. The very idea of being with anyone all the time other than her mother had never crossed her mind before.

Razz blushed at Kail's comment and then turned to Charm. "Uh," he looked at Kail and the nursery and back to Charm, "You can live here for a little while until we sort out who is going to live with who. There are lots of ponies that need homes right now. And they're all staying here," he tried to explain. Something inside him insisted he should take the foal home with him, but he wasn't sure he had the best home for her. After all, what did he know about foals? And what about Bandit? "Would you like to stay here with them, too, Charm?" Playfully, he added to the other newcomer foal, "And what about you? Do you need a place to stay, too?" It seemed a lot of parents were lost in recent events... what with the castle and town being attacked...

Then in a moment of pure randomness Razz blurted out, "Hmm, I guess I'm kind of hungry." Though he'd been snacking on cabbage sandwiches that morning, he had a strong urge for some homemade syrupy goodness. "Who wants pancakes?" he asked, walking over to the nursery's kitchen area to see about making some.

"Yes, of course," Kail added to Razz, "you are both most welcome to stay here, afterall, it is a nursery, and we have plenty of old toys and friends to play with."
Sherbet jumped, "yes! Please say you will stay! Both of you!"
When Razz announced he was making pancakes Kail just gave him a weird look. "Not, uh, green pancakes right?"
Sherbet on the other hand ran to the kitchen, "I wanna help! I can make the bestestest pancakes ever!" She hopped up onto the counter, her backfoot slipping a little before she caught it on a handle and pushed herself the rest of the way up.

It was easy for the stallion to see that Dreamer was in need of a change in subject. So a simple nod of his head was evidence that he understood.
Looking down at the newest foal, he smiled. "Cute little buggers, aren't they?"
Glancing back up at Dreamer, Gabriel's smile faded for a second. Had he not known any better, he would have thought he was going crazy. But sure enough, he could make out the "voice" of a mare speaking of a familiar name. He smiled at Dreamer. "I'll be right back."
Carefully maneuvering around the foals, Gabriel made his way into the kitchen. He couldn't figure out why Razz had suddenly decided to make pancakes, not that it was important.
"Razz....?" Leaning against a counter, he watched the purple stallion.

"No, buttery golden ones," Razz said with sarcastic grin. He laughed at Sherbert's enthusiasm. Well, of course you can help!" he said. "I bet you do make the bestest pancakes ever!" He was going to help her up on the counter, but she proved plenty capable of helping herself.
Razz was setting out bowls when Gabriel came up. "Hmm?" he asked while measuring out flour. He then pointed for Sherbert to grab some of the wooden sporks for mixing. "A little sugar and some butter..." He paused then, turning to Gabriel, as if his mind had just caught up with itself. "Yes?"

Gumdrop smiled when she got the purple blanket. Suddenly, she got all confused. Razz had called her a muffin. She looked at herself. She didn't think she looked much like a muffin.
When Razz spoke to her and Charm, she simply replied, "Where's Mummy?"
Instead of taking a seat next to Charm, she followed the big, purple teddy bear to the kitchen. What were pancakes? Maybe they would be purple! She sat on the floor in the kitchen, with the purple blanket still wrapped around her.

Razz was distracted from Gabriel again by the fuzzy purple blanket-ball on the floor.
"Who is your Mommy, dear?" he asked.

Before Gabriel's mind had time to think out a plan for breaking the news, Gumdrop entered the kitchen. Looking down at the foal, he smiled to himself. Everyone that knew him, knew how much he loved kids... he was majoring in pediatrics, after all.
Forcing himself to clear his mind, Gabriel sifted through the voices in his mind until he had a grasp on Cupcake's. If anything urgent popped up in the mare's mind, then he'd be sure to interrupt Razz's baking session. Until then... he was fine just sitting back and watching.

"Now, you have to make the griddle nice and hot," Razz was instructing the wee ones. "But what's the rule? No touching the hot griddle with our hooves or noses! No, no, no! That's right. No touching the griddle. It's hot, hot, hot!" And he grabbed the ladle in his mouth, dipped in it the batter, and poured goopy pancake batter on the hot surface. It sizzled and bubbled and smelled a whole lot better than his fried cabbage.
"Ok, now it's your turn," he gave the ladle to the nearest foal (ooc: whoever that is). "One scoop, pour, and no hooves or noses on the griddle! Try to keep your hair back out of the way, too. Our next lesson will be using the pancake flip-flopper."
