*Elsewhere, Hellboy and the others have settled in the dining area for food. Someone's even made a stone seat for Hellboy so he can sit at the table with everyone else. He's in the middle of eating when he'll feel tiny arms wrap his waist from behind, a small head presses to the small of his back just above his tail.*

Hellboy: */flinches/, half-shifting around, then just lifts an arm to look under at what's around his waist* ??

*A small child giggles*

Jerrin: *smiles and is on Hellboy's other side* Hi Red.

Hellboy: *to the others around the table* Guys, I think I just developed a new growth. *sees Jerrin* Hey! Good to see you, kid! Where's your sister? *by the grin on his face, he knows exactly where she is*

Naijah: *leans back to look* Yeh should keep it, it's an improvement on yehr looks. *grins at Hellboy*

Jerrin: *soft laugh and shrugs* I think she went to say hi to someone. *his grin says he's playing along.*

Hellboy: *shoots Naijah a mock-insulted frown, then reaches around with his flesh hand* Hang on, I think...I think I got something... *will tickle Kendra*

Kendra: *squeals and laughs, edging around towards his stone hand.*

Hellboy: Oh, you don't want to go that way, kiddo. *twists the other way and just kind of /covers/ her with his stone arm, blocking her from retreating back the other way, hand completely engulfing her bottom and thighs* Gotcha! *she's pressed lightly to the back of his hip*

Kendra: *Just /giggles/ and squeezes him as tightly as her tiny arms can squeeze.*

Hellboy: *will twist further, getting his flesh hand involved to scoop her up into his lap* Hey there, Little Bit. How have you been? *glances to include Jerrin in that question*

Kendra: *all giggles as she's pulled around into his lap. She snuggles against him, then reaches up to rest a hand on his cheek*

Jerrin: We've been really good. We were adopted. Captain Sadeas.

Hellboy: */grinning/ back* Damn, you're too cute for your own good. *looks at Jerrin* That's great! Congratulations. *to the rest of the table* This is Jerrin, and this little giggle-monster is his sister, Kendra. *gives her a quick tickle as he says it*

Kendra: *that certainly earns him more /giggles/*

Jerrin: *waves, a bit of a shy grin* Hello.

Naijah: *will introduce himself, Virah, Wes, and Relis* It’s nice teh meet yeh both.

Jerrin: *looks up at Hellboy* How long are you guys going to be here?
