Naavi
Her baby brother was an adult. Naavi, the eldest Sen, had raised the boy and of course had encouraged the rest of their family to celebrate. He was the baby; the baby of the entire group and... that meant, when he got home tonight from wherever he had been, he'd be met with a surprise party.

They didn't even live in the same house, not all of them, not at the same time. Though their homes were close and connected, easy to get to and fro. When the door to the house opened, a shout of "SURPRISE!" entered the air, and somebody let a flurry of butterflies loose towards the boy.

Naavi fluttered in place, grinning proudly. "You're finally an adult. How's it feel?" Of course, the family was celebrating the day Keyes had been brought to them; not his actual day of birth. That day meant very little to them.

On the table were

Keyes a cake, likely baked by Naavi herself, and a variety of other goods.

if you're a somthing don't ask for nothing
"Wherever he'd been" just so happened to be Torchline, he'd snuck out and ahead that morning as a treat to himself. He wasn't trying to hide it from Naavi, but he hadn't told her about the venture. He was supposedly an adult now, and he'd wanted to do something on his own. It'd been everything he'd hoped, he'd scored a good amount of collectibles, and a bag of pastries from a foolish seller who'd left them unattended. He stuffed one into his mouth now as he opened the door to their home, only to be surprised into freezing, eyes wide and mid bite as his family let loose a roar of congratulations.

The startle went away quickly, a kaleidescope of butterflies circling around his face as he continued munching on his snacks, then moved his pack back to his side. Hyperion moved up with the top of his head, bobbing and rustling in his curls, and Naavi moved forwards to speak to him. "I feel exactly the same," he said with a wide grin, a cheery and cheeky cynic to the core.

Naavi
Naavi snorted, reaching for a bite of his pastry. "Do you? How cynical. How were your travels?" Her gaze wandered over him, searching for any wounds. After Nephele, she didn't quite trust Keyes not to come home injured, even the knowledge that he'd know how to heal himself long enough to get home didn't sate her worries.

"What'd you liberate today?" She nodded towards the pack at his side. Naavi might not condone her brother's stealing, but... she wasn't going to lie and pretend she didn't have an interest in seeing what he'd nicked, and hearing his stories about the previous owners of everything he brought home.

Bit of a hypocrite, really.

Keyes gave a 'nuh' of protest when Naavi reached for him pastry, but ultimately allowed her a piece. He broke off some to pass to Hyperion, the mongoose appearing from it's perch, snatching the food, then climbing down and disappearing with it's treat. He made himself at home in the Sen house, moving to seat himself and passing one of his siblings, who gave him an effectionate peck on the cheek before he could push them away. Family.

Naavi asked about what he'd taken, gesturing to his pack. Liberate, what a great word to use. "Glad you asked, I brought you something," he said, diving into the satchel and retrieving a very shiny conch shell. "Some nimrod wasn't paying attention, this was by far the easiest steal," he said, boastful in tone.

Naavi
When Keyes presented her with the conch shell, she gasped, clearly not bothered when he described how he stole it. "Oh it's beautiful! You and I shall have to visit Torchline, and hunt for shells of our own, too." She declared as if it was a set-in-stone decision.

She fluttered, hovering in place, clearly pleased with the gift, before her feet met the floor. "Promise we'll go together?" She held out her pinky, smirking to the boy. That way she could spend some time with him, and make sure he stayed safe while exploring.

She might not agree with stealing but... damn, the conch shell was pretty.

The joy on Naavi's face when she was presented her gift brought a smile to his own. He liked to play the moody teen, but he loved his family, and he wanted them to be happy. He'd actually brought gifts back for all of them, a little souvenir to show his siblings how cool he was. It'd worked with the oldest, the others were on the itenerary.

Key leaned forward a bit a bright youthful smile upon his face as he grabbed her pinky with his own and gave a strong shake. No words were needed to confirm that one, it was a given. He'd told her they'd make the trip and they would, there was no way around it. Especially when sealed with the pinky promise.

Naavi
Naavi beamed as the deal was sealed with a pinky promise. She was still quite thrilled by her gift, pressing it to her ear to see if she could hear the ocean. She couldn't wait to get to see the ocean! After all...

Greatwood was home, but the world was big. She'd promised Nephele but... if she was keeping Keyes safe (or rationalizing her own desire to see the world by saying it was for Keyes) it didn't count as a lie, right? Or a broken promise.

Quietly rationalizing her thoughts, she settled down in a seat and watched as each member of the family received a gift.
