Ruby is strange and meek. She doesn't count.( In the meantime, he's typing slowly into his Internet thing -- this shit really is great -- 'where are lizards?' and coming up with a lot of different things. )
I think there are stores here that have lizards. Small lizards. That's a start.( grandpa is stil bad at reading the search results )
[Yule.....! The fact that they already have an equivalent holiday actually makes it weirder for Lalli, but he manages to keep that to himself. Maybe it was just because he was bad at the whole celebrating thing...]
( He thinks about this carefully, while putting his tablet down to shuffle Lisko closer to his face. Hello, baby...getting gifts for a baby lizard is easy enough, but what does he want? )
A sweater or two would be nice, but I wouldn't mind if you surprised me.( He's greatly enhanced his wardrobe in Shehui, but his closet could always use some expanding. Also, he likes to have some knowledge that he'll like what he's getting, but he's also morbidly curious about what Lalli would get him unprompted. )What do you want?
They're a child, but also a lizard child. Do you think that'll make some difference?
( They do have that somewhat animal quality about them at times, somewhat evident now that they've decided to shove their snout in one of Emil's takeout containers. He would have shared more if you asked, babe... )
( Lisko does sneaky steals, but if Lalli ever shoves his face into Emil's plate, he'll be concerned. )
Makes sense.( The lizard babe lifts their face to look at Emil again, happily licking all of their face that their long tongue can reach. You can have the rest of that... )You're working a lot recently, aren't you?
Alright. As long as you're doing okay.( There's no desire to push this issue, as he doesn't want to make Lalli think he's incompetent again or anything. He'll worry on his own. )
What sort of things do you deliver, anyway? Just packages?
You must be really busy.( Emil is exhausted thinking about it, but also impressed! Lalli really can do a lot of amazing things Emil wouldn't even attempt to. )
If you deliver food, maybe you'll be the one to bring my order, sometime. The fact that they can bring you food to your house is incredible.
( He's not leaving Shehui without a few extra pounds. )

Maybe. They aren't people though, if they're in stores. I guess we have to try and see, but I don't think it's the same.

( Emil looks at Lisko, looking at him with shining eyes, almost like They Know. Chill out, little lizard -- you'll see kindred spirits soon enough. )
People are talking about that holiday coming up. It may be a good excuse to do something for them.

[Guess he'll have to dedicate some time to Not Working, then...and figure out gifts...]
no subject
( Crimmus...well, Not!Crimmus, but close enough. )
no subject
Okay. What do you want, then?

[Sweaters make sense. Something Lalli picks... What the heck would that even be? Well, it'd be a surprise to both of them.]
You already know the kind of stuff I want?
[What does one require other than soft things... What's the point of expanding your taste post-birthday?]
no subject
Alright, that's doable. It also feels silly to not get Lisko something more tangible...but I'm not sure what sort of gift to get a lizard.
no subject
A sweater that matches...?
[did they already get them a coat, a mystery]
What do little kids like?
no subject
( Add a coat and matching family sweaters to the list of Lisko Gifts. )
no subject
Then it shouldn't be hard to buy things for them.

I don't think a lot. They've been with us the whole time... Just for things like needing warmer coats than us, because of lizard skin.
no subject
Makes sense. ( The lizard babe lifts their face to look at Emil again, happily licking all of their face that their long tongue can reach. You can have the rest of that... ) You're working a lot recently, aren't you?
no subject
I guess so? They have a lot of things they need delivered.
no subject
( Since this should of course be a family activity. )
no subject
Yes. Okay. I'll tell them I want one after all, then.
no subject
( Like.....Lalli............... )

I think most things are to prepare for the sun festival, though.
