Jendayi: So we came to see you! *slips her arms around him again, giving his ribs a tight squeeze, cheek pressed to his chest. For looking so grown up already, she’s still so short!*

Darnell: *blinks* She did? *okay, maybe he shouldn’t be surprised, and then he’s being /hugged/ again, and he laughs, wrapping his arms around her before putting a hand on top of her head and resting his chin on it* Is Dad not feeding you enough? *gives Terris a GRIN*

Jendayi: *sticks her tongue out at him and pokes his ribs.* He’s feeding me plenty, he says I just forgot how to grow. 

Terris: *chuckles*

Darnell: *snickers* You might want to get around to remembering, little sis. So! *waves them at chairs, taking one himself, and will start asking how they’ve been doing, what they’ve been doing, how Richard and Cat and the kids are, Lin and Kua…*

*They’ll sit and chat. Everyone is doing well and he is missed. Oh! And look! Jendayi’s learned to fly! She’ll lift herself and her chair off the floor to show off, and then to be ornery, she’ll do the same to Darnell’s chair.*

Darnell: *yelps!, gripping the arms of his chair, eyes wide . . . yeah, not surprised, just…n-not sure what he thinks of the experience*

Jendayi: *sets him down gently* It’s okay, big brother, I’d never let you fall.

Alem: And I’d help too if you started to.
