[Seeing his family again was great, but it also reminds Marco just how much he misses them, which is getting to be a bit too much a theme. So he's ignoring all of it and spending a lazy day hanging out in phoenix form, reading and listening to music. And when he's sure Toby's up, looking for him thanks to a mysterious message. Anyways, there's a fiery blue hanging around the garden. Though when it comes time for lunch, he'll be back to his usual human self. If only in the cafeteria. Feel feel to spot him around.]

Dad.

[And there's the little red-eyed kid, gently tugging on one of the feathers.]

[fierybluebird]

[Switches back to human, but with a wing around Toby's shoulders.] What's up kiddo?

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

Um... can I talk to you about something private?

[fierybluebird]

Of course. Talk away, eh.

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

[He fidgets a little, then:]

I... I like Espio.

[toomanyverses.livejournal.com]

...I thought phoenixes were supposed to be red. Or gold...

I guess that Herodotus heard wrong.

[fierybluebird]

[The bird cocks its head to the side. Those aren't names he's heard around here. He spreads his wings though and chirps. Tada. All phoenix. Blue or not.]

[toomanyverses.livejournal.com]

He never did see one with his own eyes, you know. Neither did my mother.

[fierybluebird]

[Tilts head to the side curiously. Then how would he know what color phoenixes should be?]

[Grell is in the quad, writing in her diary about her trip to Marco's home! Exclusive details about charming men with flowers and...giants. Sighs and wonders where Marco went.]

I should check on Toby, too.

[heartcorrupt.livejournal.com]

I'm okay.

[The ninja is still a ninja.]

[redcinemareel]

[WHAT IN HADES IS WRONG WITH YOU?! Grell just jumped a few inches away from Toby. Luckily she doesn't have a heartbeat.]

I'm glad. [Calms down and pats a spot next to her] Where have you been? [Pauses] Perhaps I should answer that question. [Giggles]

[HE DOESN'T KNOW HE DOES IT OKAY. Have a slight laugh though.]

I haven't really left my room much.

[It makes a horrible KROWWAAARK noise and attacks.

NO NOT REALLY.

It's just chilling out.]

[Well... that's a first. The phoenix just STARES deadpan at the blond. Sure he's been picked up in bird form before, but only by his brothers who already know him.] Kree? [DEADPAN PHOENIX STARE.]

Yo.

[fierybluebird]

Chirp! [Waves a wing.]

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

Anything weird happen to you, too?

[fierybluebird]

[Switches back to human.]

Define "weird." [Valid question since Tobias was going to confess.]

[Upon spotting Marco as a phoenix, Japan is startled to say the least. He jumps to conclusions quite easily, and, well. He talks to himself so it probably doesn't help.]

Uwah! Is this Hou-ou?! Blue though? What sort of meaning does this hold?!

[fierybluebird]

[Blinks and tilts his head, a little confused by this reaction.]

Kree??

[asideglance.livejournal.com]

[Japan just has one hand to his mouth in thought as he stares at Marco.

He's deeply considering this. What a strange thing to come across!! What could it mean...]

[fierybluebird]

[HE LOVES THIS REACTION SO MUCH. Now he's just strutting and showing off, BEING PRETTY. Look at the tail. Isn't it gorgeous? He is oh so proud of his phoenix tail like a peacock. And the sparkles. They are mesmerizing, yes.]
