Charm nodded her head. She couldn't believe it; she'd have someone to play with all the time. With a leap and a bound she landed at Kail's legs. Grinning up at the pegasus she wrapped two little legs around one of Kail's, in a hug.
"Thank you."
She watched as Razz and Sherbet headed into the kitchen. What were these pancake things Razz mentioned and Sherbet was so excited about? Hopping after the other two Charm bounded into the kitchen. Tiny hooves slipped out from under her. Sprawling at Gabriel's hooves, she came to a stop. Bright purple eyes looked up at the stallion.

Themis brought herself away from the window, and walked into the kitchen. So many ponies, so little space. She needed to find herself a new home, and quick. She walked across the kitchen to the set of supplies Swirl had gotten her, she reached down, clenching the bag in her mouth, and trotted over to her "area" in the living room of the nursery. She set the items down, and then walked back into the kitchen. Upon reaching the kitchen, she noticed a purple blanket laying in the middle of everyone, where anyone could step on it. She glided over to it, and knelt down to pick it up, so nobody would step all over it, and get it dirty. She grasped the top with her teeth. It didn't budge. She pulled on it a little harder, and then, gave it one last final pull. ((..I WANT TO ADOPT GOODY GUMDROP!!^___^..Lol..^^;;..I don't care if Themis is only 15..Fifteen years olds have babies all the time.^_^..And I'll even let you bring her into PoT as a older pony if you want.. ))

Kail smiled brightly as Charm hugged her leg and then bounded off for the kitchen. If she was anything like that as a child its no wonder her parents never had much of a complaint - at least not that they would admit to. And to tell the truth, she rather liked all the children around - despite her young face she was what her father called an "old soul" and could use the lightening up on occassion.
Sherbet bounced on the counter as she helped make some pancakes, almost slipping off a couple of times but catching herself and the food. She was covered in flour, and had little dabs of pancake batter everywhere. "Dont touch the griddle, its hot hot hot!" she sang as she pranced around happily. Her eyes widdened at mention of the pancake flip-flopper, "Oh I wanna learn how to use that! Flip-flopper, flip-flopper!" she had changed her song.

"This," Razz said in a mysterious voice as he produced the utensil from behind his back, "is the pancake flip-flopper." Amid what he assumed would be oohs and aahs, he continued, "It's the most important tool for making good pancakes! First, you tuck it under the edges of your pancakes like this... then you peek and see how well they are cooking." He lifted the corner of a pancake and gave a quick, most secretive look. "Then you slide the flip-flopper directly under the pancake. Make sure you have a good grip on the handle and..." then with a quick flick, he flip-flopped the pancake in a high-toss and it landed neatly on the griddle with a satisfying sizzle.
"Ta-da!" he said and then flipped a few more.

Sherbet's eyes grew large as saucers as she watched Razz use the flip-flopper on the pancakes. "Wow," she said in awe as she starred. She was too much in awe to even ask to do it herself, she was content watching the pancakes go up, flip a few times, and come down on their other side.
She got close to the griddle and inspected the pancakes. A little too close, as she grazed her chin on it and gave a surprised yelp, falling off the counter and scurrying to Kail at once.
"Silly filly, Razz told you not to get too close," Kail said as she picked Sherbet up and put her on her back.
"Those pancakes bite! We need to eat them before they eat us!" Sherbet said with a large smile, the burn already forgotten, and stood with her forehoofs on Kail's head.

Gumdrop watched as one of the foals learnt how to make pancakes. She couldn't see above the kitchen counter, it was too high, so she stayed wrapped up on the floor, happy as long as she had her big, purple pony and she wasn't out in the cold. Where was Mummy? And were was Daddy? They were there before... She put her hoof in her mouth (They don't have thumbs. O.o) and sucked on it for comfort.

Razz made a squeezed up face when Sherbert burnt her chin and gave Kail an apologetic look. Then he stacked the pancakes on plates and began handing them out.
"Here you go, Charm, and... Muffin," he said to Gumdrop, since she still hadn't told him her name. "And Sherbert. Now all we need is some good syrupy goodness!" And he brought out a small pitcher of syrup and began pouring it over his own pancakes. "Of course, you can eat them plain, too. Or with strawberries or blueberries or even whipped cream." Then he leaned down as if sharing some great family secret. "Sometimes I even put chocolate chips in the batter!"

Kail shook her head at Sherbet and gave Razz a look that said 'dont-worry-about-it-she-does-this-all-the-time', if that were possible.
Sherbet, on the mention of the pancakes being done, slid down off Kail's back and went to her plate. She poured gobs of syrup all over her pancakes to 'get back at them for biting her' and then dove in. Her face was covered with syrup before long and she was smiling happily.

"Hey ok." Dreamer said smiling. He watched Gabriel leave and retreated to a corner of the room, though he looked at everyone in turn, so that an image of the face of each pony could surface his mind at his will.
Soon enough the noise from within the kitchen caught his attention and walked over and peeked his head around to look at what was happening. Dreamer smiled at the group, studying the happy faces of each one.

"Pancakes, anyone?" Razz looked around at Gabriel, Themis, and Dreamer. "There are plenty more, just help yourself." And with that he sat down on the floor with Goody and began to eat. Some of the pancakes made by the kids were a bit oblong or even sqiggly freeform, but they still tasted just as good.

Dreamer grinned. "I guess one shouldn't hurt anyone..." He walked out into the kitchen and took one of the offered pancakes and took a bite. "Mmm..." Dreamer's spirits rose; he didn't realise how long it had been since he last had a pancake. He had quite forgotten the welcoming taste. I need to stay around society abit more often... He thought to himself, grinning.

Someone tugged Goody's blanket. She peeked over the top. "Mine!"
Gumdrop got handed a pancake. She studied it over, before nibbling it. It was a bit plain. She needed something on it. Blueberries? Nah! Where were the purple berries!? She couldn't find any, so the blueberries would have to do.
Razz called her muffin again. He must be very much mistaken! He sat next to her. "Teddy!" She cried, and gave him a big hug, before going back to her pancake. She tried not to spill any blueberry juice on her fuzzy blanket, but oops! Too late! She held it up to Razz.
(gah. -_-' I don't know about 15 year old adopting Gumdrop. But Themis can kinda babysit, maybe take her on trips around the town, stuff like that.)

Swirl grinned at the kidlets. She watched the scene confusedly. Her training with The Sisters didn't really involve child care, beyond the basics of be nice to them and babies don't just appear out of nowhere, they have parents. Only these foals did appear to have just... appeared. If it had been closer to the battle it would have made sense, but this scenario just wasn't in any of her training and it left her with an odd sense of vertigo.
"Kail? Razz? I think I should go look for that black mare...Is that ok?"

Razz was surprised by Gumdrop's affection and smiled sheepishly as she hugged him. He patted her on the back and then took her sticky blanket.
"That's OK. We can clean that up," he said. "My name's Razzaroo. What's your name?" he tried again. He looked up at Swirl and said, "Uh, yeah, sure." Then looked at Kail.

Kail shrugged and smiled at Swirl, "not a problem here, I think we have things pretty much under control. Or rather, Razz does."
Kail finally decided to join them in having a seat on the cold kitchen floor, at which point Sherbet crawled over with her sticky hoofs and sat down with her, getting Kail all sticky.
