Attlas looked at the infant, "Eh... I've never really held a child before" he muttered taking Olaf and holding him like a kit, one hand on the child's head and the oher under the lombard, leaning him back so he'd be like laying on his back, "Uuuh... Like this...?" he asked, before Kita came out from his coat,
"Att-chan... You're holding him wrong..." she said in a motherly tone before turning into her human form and cradling the infant.

Lydia smiled "Almost Attlas." She sounded unusually sweet and happy but she was in a good mood none the less. "Whose that Attlas? Your girlfriend?" She teased knowing that she wasn't. "I'm kidding miss don't worry!" she said smiling to herself. "You ready to go to lunch?" She asked Attlas as she adjusted Ulfirc for comfort and safety. Lydia remained silent until she reached the lunchroom "Attlas do you want to try feeding them? I'll get some apples so I can Mash them up and I figured maybe you want to help me."

Dorien thought about it for a few moments before nodding his head. "I might as well try it, right? I know we don't know each other all that well yet, but I'm sure we'll get along amazingly. You do seem like a very nice and smart woman." The compliment was out of Dorien's mouth before he even knew he said it. He did a mental face-palm as he kept walking, criticizing himself of how stupid he had sounded. He was over grateful when the lunch room was starting to come into sight.

Zelda blushed and turned away shyly. "I-I've never had anyone tell me that before!" She said slowly turning back. She sighed and twirled her fingers through her hair as she spoke "Th-thank you. I mean it! I haven't been complimented in a long time." She smiled and gently hugged Dorien as they walked.
Malon smiled and walked over "Hey Dorien I'll help you move in!"

"Really? I don't see why you wouldn't be. You are very pretty, you know." Dorien flashed a smile, and when Zelda hugged him he hugged her back. You know, maybe hugs aren't such a bad thing after all...
He looked to Malon as she spoke and nodded. "That's very kind of you. I'd appreciate it very much!" Wow... They're all so nice around here... Much different from my home town... Dorien was lost in his thoughts once more, not paying any attention as they entered the cafeteria.

Zelda gasped and blushed even harder "Pretty? I-I'm not pretty. I mean I'm well you know and and...." She struggled with what to say until Malon glared at her from behind Dorien to tell her to accept what he had said "I thank you! It really makes me happy that someone thinks that."
"Aw Zelda has a crush!" Malon teased her friend.
"Sh-shut up Malon!" She said turning away quickly in embarrassment.
"I'll leave you two alone to eat!" Malon said walking off.
"So what do you like to eat?" Zelda said slowly regaining her composure.

Dorien, snapped out of his little daze, sat back and watched as the scene unfolded, laughing lightly. Smile still in place, he thought about the question for a few moments, tapping a finger against his chin and biting his lower lip. It was an awful habit he had, but he could never stop it. "Hmm... I'm not really that picky. As long as it's eatable, I'll eat just about anything."
Although it was true he wasn't picky with what he ate, the same couldn't be said about his cooking. He had to have everything down to an art before he began to cook something. It was just the way he was.
Turning his focus back on Zelda he asked, "What about you? Do you have recommendations for me?"

Zelda entered the lunch line and sighed as she thought. "Um well... " She said grabbing a salad "I would recommend the wraps. They're pretty good and I think you'd like them." She said pointing to the small carton. "Any way I sit over there so I'll wait at my table until you get your lunch." She said with a small smile as she walked out. What if Malon was right? I mean he is nice to me but. Nah I don't like him that much. Not yet She thought as she sat down and began eating slowly.

Dorien nodded and grabbed a wrap. He went through the rest of the line then made his was over to where Zelda was sitting, trying to not blush when thinking about Malon's comment. There is absolutely, positively no way that she likes me he kept reminding himself as he took a seat across from Zelda. Malon was just joking around. Besides, I'm sure she has a boyfriend. I saw some pretty cute boys on the way here, so I wouldn't blame her if one of them was hers. Dorien couldn't help but to chuckle at the thought of Zelda having a boyfriend. I bet they follow her around like a lost puppy.

Zelda smiled and happily ate her lunch "So um Dorien" Well here goes nothing... she thought to herself nervously. "Do you... do you have a girlfriend?" She blushed slightly and looked away " I'm not trying to be creepy I just don't want to offend someone by having you move in... " She smiled slightly and looked back at Dorien "And well I bet you want to know the same about me and no. We recently broke up. It wasn't anything bad but it wasn't working out." she smiled and chuckled a few times. "We're actually still good friends come to think about it."

Dorien looked at her like she was mad. "Really? Well, I'm sorry to hear that. And, trust me, you don't have to worry about offending anyone. I've been single for three years now..." His voice trailed off as his past came back to haunt him, but only for a moment. "Anyway! So, that won't be a problem. Besides, who would want to date a Zora? I've noticed I'm the only one around here, so I'm kind of the odd one out. Not that it bugs me much. I usually prefer to be alone anyways. That is to say, I enjoy your company, but most people don't enjoy mine"
Realizing he was rambling, Dorien shut himself up by starting in on his wrap. "Huh. This really is good!" he mumbled to himself.

Zelda smiled slowly "I enjoy your company too. Don't be so hard on yourself I mean I would date you!" she blushed slightly. "I mean you are nice and good looking and-"
"Hey Zellie!" Isabel said walking by with a smile. "How's school so far?" She asked stopping for a second.
"Hey mom!" Zelda said nodding politely. "everything is good so far! Look I made a new friend"elda said taking Doriens hand in hers. "Dorien this is my mother Isabel!"
"Nice to meet you. I would stay and talk but i have to work! Take care you two!" Isabel said walking off.

Dorien, slightly red, almost laughed at the ironic time of their interruption. Deciding to try to make the situation less awkward, he waved and said a casual hello to Zelda's mother before she left.
"So, that was your mother? She seems nice. What does she do?" he asked trying to make small talk without letting himself sound stupid once more.

"Well she does a lot of things actually. At one point she was a senator who pushed for social equality and such. " Zelda said sliding closer to Dorien so her leg was touching his. "She is also a magic and home ec teacher here. She is one of the best white mages out there. She's also a great mother and I hope to be as good as her one day." she chuckled nervously and looked up at Dorien "but I doubt I'll have kids for a while so I don't have to worry about that."

"Oh? That must seem like a lot to look forward to. Of what I can tell, I'm sure you'll be as good as her. Maybe even better. Who knows?" He smiled reassuringly, not moving away from her. He finished his meal quickly and looked around the lunch room. "L-looks like there's quite a few people coming in now..." He shifted nervously, not liking the fact that there were more people.
