Warnings: None yet, none likely, will update as necessary

It was midafternoon, and Arkady had decided that she and Spam could use some air, so she'd packed up his paint supplies, slung the bag over her shoulder and snapped his harness on before heading outside, two teleport jumps and two portkey landings and she found a good park, humming to herself and kicking off her shoes to wriggle bare toes in the grass, "Where do you suppose we are?" She asked the pig, shielding her eyes from the sun with one hand, grinning as the breeze made her skirt billow.

	"Well that's why we're outside innit?" This was a fairly obvious solution to the situation at hand, so far as she was concerned. She reached out to poke Spam in the side with her toes, as he was rolling around on his back like a happy puppy, "Spam thinks so too." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Of course, we're either too clever or incapable of resistin'," he grinned and toasted her with his cup. The little one's antics made him smile. "Proof dat pigs are intelligent too." "Haven't met many people wit' dem as pets, why'ja pick him?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She tilted her head, "Gir gave him to me, he had some that he was trying to spread swine flu with? But they weren't sick at all, so he gave them back, except for Spam who came home with me." She shrugged, "He painted my studio, it's nice." Yes. The pig. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Remy blinked at the image of paint smears shin-high all over a flat, and chose to eat his spoonful of gelato at that moment. "Well, long as you et he like it, who's to complain?" he squinted at the rollicking piglet. "He's cuter dan some decorators I know." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justalilmental 2009-08-02 02:50 am UTC (link)
	She nodded, "I like it and the kids like it, so it works out." She poked Spam with her toes again, giving him the now empty cup to lick, smiling at his squeaky glee noises, "And I don't know if the chikkenz like it, but they're chikkenz, they mostly like bugs and corms and yelling at each other."

	"Kids? I'll have to go wit' you bein' a teacher of some sort." He rolled up his pants a bit, cooling off. "I'd say art teacher, or theater mebbe." "Pigs, chickens and kids?" he chuckled and shook his head. "Don't sound like you're much of stickler for cleanliness." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yoga!" She said brightly, "And they're good kids, so everything's tidy anyway." She shrugged, "Gir gave me the pig, and KK gave me the chikkenz, and everybody lets me borrow the kids." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	knaveofhearts 2009-08-02 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	He smirked and nodded, "I think you've got de better set-up, just rentin' de kids." He repeated her pronunciation of the poultry, amused by it."Yoga, huh? Always t'ought you had to be all centered et focused for dat. But kids are always on a sugar high." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justalilmental 2009-08-02 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	She shrugged, leaning back on her hands, "That's what the yoga's for, to help them with the focus and the center and everything. That and it's a pretty easy class anyway, we usually decide what kind of trees we are while we're in tree pose." She hopped up to demonstrate, "Usually I get to be a Juniper because I'm the tallest" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Ohhhh, so it's teachin' them while bein' entertainin'," he nodded, liking the sneakiness of it. "They learn better when they don't know dat." He leaned back, smiling at the balance. "I bet you could do some gymnastic bits, dat's great balance." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She laughed, settling down once more, folding easily into a lotus position and getting Spam's art supplies out of her bag, since he was nosing around in it anyway, "I bet I could!" She shrugged, "Sometimes when we're in the lotus like this and meditating we're a flock of butterflies and go on great migrations, yesterday we all went to Australia to see the Sydney Opera House and Ayers Rock and follow the Wallaby run."

It probably helped the kids' collective imagination that Arkady was psychic.

	He squinted at the position, kicked off his far-too-fashionable-for-grass-stains-and-piglet-paint-but-who-cares? shoes and mimicked her. "Dat's some serious pretendin'," he grinned and sat straighter in the pose. "Next time, swing by de Great Reef and say 'allo' to de fishies." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justalilmental 2009-08-03 03:14 am UTC (link)
	She blinked, then again, then grinned, "That's a great idea! Stingrays migrate like butterflies do, maybe next time we could be stingrays instead. I think that's a great idea!" Spam, for his part, was contentedly painting away, he had an art pad and tubs of finger, or in his case, trotter-and-snout paint. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Kinda look like dis too," he looked at his lap and clucked. Following the pattern, the tree pose looked like the jellies, but it was her class and he was just being silly. "Too bad grown-ups ain't allowed to be silly like dis, just to break up de stress of work." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justalilmental 2009-08-03 05:34 am UTC (link)
	"Adults are too serious for their own good." She said with a shrug, bouncing her knees just a little, "Everyone should be able to be silly whenever they like, especially if it's to make sure there's a stress-free workplace." She nodded solemnly then, "Stress at work is one of the leading causes of heart attacks in people over forty." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Dat and too much bourbon et steaks wit' de clients," he nodded, smiling. "But you have a bon point, even if I cannot de see honorable judge doin'-" he waves his arms, making up a yoga pose "-Bloated Walrus on a Crumblin' Levy." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justalilmental 2009-08-03 06:00 am UTC (link)
	She laughed brightly again, shaking her head, "Just because that's what he is doesn't mean that's the name of the pose." She was a sharp one. Sometimes. "And silly-at-work doesn't have to be yoga, it could be like, water balloon fight in the hallway." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	knaveofhearts 2009-08-03 03:09 pm UTC (link)
	He laughed at her comeback. "True, true, you're right on dat one, Petite." He pictured her suggestion and shuddered. "Too many laptops et Italian suits. Nerf darts would be safer. Et I'd love t'peg de defense in de forehead just once." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	justalilmental 2009-08-03 03:45 pm UTC (link)
	She nodded, "Darts works too, or a spudgun fight, potato pellets sting on account of the starches, but the wash out just fine." She shrugged, "Or you could make everyone wear silly hats, or those headbands with the doinglies on them." She indicated this by wiggling her fingers like antennae. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	knaveofhearts 2009-08-03 03:48 pm UTC (link)
	He chuckled again, nodding with a wide grin. "Dis makes all kinds of sense to me, I like it." Actually, kind of reminded him of the Xavier mansion when someone wasn't trying to kill them, come through a portal or had their powers on the fritz. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Or make everyone speak in pig-Latin, or real Latin for that matter. Or address each other by alias, or have everyone give themselves a title and not answer unless they're addressed by it. There's a lot of ways to make work silly." She said with another shrug, leaning back on her hands and stretching her legs out again, toes wriggling through the grass once more.
