Perhaps she could, but Yun had grown up large around many smaller and larger creatures some which were not as sturdy as kitsu & had learned almost instinctively at a very young age how to use her size and strength gently. Every move was carefully balanced to the size of the one she was playing with -without Yun having to think much consciously about it. The Luck had already integrated such thoughts to be automatic.
Yun paused tilting her head slightly at the male, whuff gently to blow her bangs from her face. "Uh-uh. I don't live in the Kitsu Realms. There's a portal -probably like the one that brought our species here in the histories- that's beyond Realm HQ. It leads to a place called Gaia. I live there, mostly. In the cottage in the middle of Bass'ken Woods, East of Bass'ken Lake and North of Barton Town. It's magic." Her smile gained a happy-dreamy quality. "Wish I could see magic. Bet home would look like a swirling sunset. Woven. Well... if they hadn't hidden the magic." Yun's smile returned to her normal friendly warmth. "Why? Do you stay at headquarters, Geisha? It's the place to run into other kitsu I hear."

Geisha listened with much learned interest. Not in kitsu realms? Well where else was there to go? Ears flickered to the words portal and magic, finding it very intriguing. Moreso than viewing it as odd, simply because it sounded, what....right? Common? At least with how easily and eagerly Yun spoke of it. "Sounds nice. And I wonder what color magic is? Or maybe it's like auras, with a pretty and unique selection for each kitsu. I've heard none are alike, but I don't know if it's true." The male blinked before blushing at his own blabbering.
"What, me?" Purple face shook in an amused way. "Hmmm, maybe sometimes. I don't know, it seems like a party to me. Just something you walk into and enjoy at first, but then get tired of the same feature. I don't know really..." Sure you meet other faces, but then they went to do their own things, and you'd just sit there like it was an abandoned party, all the fun gone. Geisha sighed with a chuckle. "I guess I just walk around where ever, no real destination."

Yes... it must be like that. Auras. So Geisha could not see those either. Bummer. Yun had always wanted to meet a kitsu who could.
"I wouldn't know about a party. Mîr & I don't go to either HQ very often. I know where they are and that's about it. Some of the others go more often. Or used to. But... you're saying you don't have a place to go?" Concern etched her face.

"Aww, so that's the name of your lovely friend? Mir." He couldn't quite recall the whole name, so Mir caught on much easier. Geisha continued his skip with Yun, ears flicking. Did she need help with transporting that orb? I mean, sure she was big, but was it heavy too? Peach eyes blinked and Geisha tilted his head. "Isn't the lands enough to call a place to go?" He didn't quite understand what she was saying. "Umm, well let's see. I get offered many places to go often enough. But those are just momentary visits still." The male shrugged, figuring that's the best answer he could give.

"Yes. It's shorter than saying Adumialmîr all the time. And I think she's very lovely. She's the purple and pink of twilight complete with a scattering of stars. On top of that she has these beautiful yellow markings that I can't quite explain. They're like fancy upside-down 'V's on her ears and under her eyes they're sideways, then theres some on her legs a bit too. But more... she's a lady. Much more of a lady than I seem to ever be able to be." It was not quite idolatry, though there was love & respect both for her tiny 'mother' figure.
Yun would never have thought of anyone else helping her with moving her orb. That's what she did: guard her jade sphere 24/7. The hardest part was when she wanted to take a swim... Yun certainly could not take it in the water with her. Usually then she hid it carefully, often returning to shore to see that no one came near it's hiding place.
But another thing that seemed just as alien was not having a home to return to. "I... I guess so. There's certainly plenty of lands here to travel. I understand there's thousand of kitsu, yet Mîr & I could travel days for new places to watch the sunrise & sunset and never run across another. But it's nice to have somewhere to return. To be greeted and welcomed and cared for." She spied the tree she remembered ahead, ripe with many apples, its leaves changing colors to golds and oranges for the fall. "And fed."

Geisha's mouth formed a small 'oh', amazed by the details of Mir. "Twilight you say? That must be fabulous to see. I'm sure she's proud of such a feature, no? And the yellow sorta reminds me of lightning, but more like sparks." He hummed to himself, trying to visualize this kitsu but failing poorly. He supposed he'd just have to wait and be lucky to meet this other. "Hmm, well that is definately a good influence for another to grow up under. How nice to be able to call her mother." Like a rare gift to be treasured.
Ears flicked back and forth constantly, focusing both on where he was going and what he was hearing. "Oh, place to return too?" Something like headquarters then? Though, that didn't really have greetings. "Heh, sounds pleasant." And before he knew it, they were at the tree, staring up at the red jewels to be enjoyed.

her massive head nodded cheerfully. "oh she is, she is. Fabulous to see anyway. I know Mîr likes that she is colored like her favorite time of day, but I don't know how proud she is of it. I'd think she should be. And you've just got to meet her sometime, Geisha. She's like my mom, but though I think of her that way a lot & well... talk about her as my mom I've never called her mother exactly." The Luck gave a sheepish grin. She had not... and neither had Adumialmîr for her part.
"Yes it's very nice, having a place to go back to." Nearing the tree Yun rose high on her back legs and with both paws held up above her grabbed a few apples from the lowest hanging branches. She could climb but did not feel quite comfortable yet leaving her orb that far away from her. Yun was quite trusting... but not so trusting yet that she would leave the protection of her sphere to someone she had just met. No matter how much she liked him. "Oh gosh... these look good don't they Geisha?" Her silver eyes were on the firm red fruits by her paws. Grinning Yun looked up and rolled a few to her new friend.

Geisha blinked to the explanation, surprised by the term bit. This whole time he had figured they called each other mom and daughter for endearment. "Hmm, so long as it's acknowledged, that's all that matters." He could see how content Yun was with the establishment, and he could only imagine Mir was too. Hopefully...past her moments of wanting to be alone.
Head tilted back and to the side as the kitsu watched his friend retrieve the apples. She made it seem too easy, being taller and bigger. Not that he minded, it was actually something to admire, especially in times of need. "So good." His mouth was already watering at the promise of the food. Chocolate paws reached out and picked one that was rolled over. "Thank you."

"Acknowledged?" Headtilt. "Oh!" Yun had a thought. "Oh! She's not really my mother. She's just been like a mother." The Luck grinned, looking a little embarrassed as she sat on her haunches. Her jade ball was near her body and back legs and Yun rolled an apple between her front paws. "You're welcome. And... sorry if I confused you. I've never really had to explain it to anyone before. You know... normally being with her or at home with the others who already know. Guess it's only natural I'd forget or mess up..." Sheepishly Yun lowered to the ground, laying around her ball carefully before biting into her apple.

Geisha blinked before flushing slightly. "Oh, I know deary. About the whole not blood related bit. I had just meant it's nice that the relationship was formed either way." It was good to have some parental figure in one's life. The male picked up one shiny apple, genderly chewing at its skin. Nibble nibble. Ears dipped back and forth as the kitsu ate his fruity snack, the sun warm on his pelt. Pink tails laced amongst themselves before flipping to his side.

The pattern on her cheeks disappeared against the red fur once more. She had misunderstood again. This is why she needed Adumialmîr... on her on Yun was a social klutz. At least she thought so. "Oh..." Looking sheepish she finished her apple. One bite taking the second half, then chewing it with her back teeth completely before swallowing.
"Yeah... I mean: Yes it is. Do you have any relationships Geisha?" Purplish ears flicked curiously back and forth, the look on her filigreed face (where it could be seen through what remained of her blush) on of complete innocence as the Luck pulled another apple to her and bit it neatly in half while sucking in the juices.

Geisha giggled lightly to the flushing. "Don't worry over it, I had been the one to confuse you. Guess I should be more careful how I say things." He finished his apple, balancing the thin core on the ground like a miniature tree. That'll feed some bugs, or maybe even squirrels. Lantern eyes turned up form his food, and the male tilted is head with a grin. "Not that I'm aware of. I haven't paused to think of that for such a long time." He was so used to his current lifestyle, that imagining other forms of it was, well, foreign. Almost like reading fairytales, where he could just smile and say "that sounds nice."

Yun left no stem, having eaten her halves stems and seeds and all. Finishing another apple Yun lay her head down with her cheek to the grass, ear flattened above her head and studied the apple core 'tree' with curious fascination. She did not know what to make of Geisha's giggle or taking credit? for the miscommunication. It was easier to focus on the apple core. But she looked up, upper ear lifting and tilting as he spoke again. Yun had to grin, seeing his. Then she was befuddled all over again. "What does? A relationship?" Those were nice... weren't they?

The pinkish kitsu blinked, surprised to find that the other had eaten every inch of her apples. Leaving no trce or hint that they were ever there. Guess he was just too used to eating around the center. Softly, he flicked out a paw and spun the core, watching it give two good rounds before tumbling to its side.
Geisha formed an 'oh' with his mouth. "What?" Had he said his thoughts of fairy tales aloud and not realized it? "Oh, I was just commenting on the relationship thing. Like how you and your friend formed the motherly one." The simple and general bond of family was simply...amazing.

((doot doot... that would be my bad: saw the quotation marks and thought he said it aloud... *sheepish* not the first nor last time messed unintentionally... *hugs*))
Hadn't he said it allowed? Perhaps the Luck had merely extrapolated the train of thought, for she was in no way telepathic. Why, she was not even very good at reading body language. "oh."
What else could she say? Yun felt like a kit. But then she usually felt like a kit, though in her head she knew she was now full grown. Not like Liliana's mate, who had felt adult though his body had not caught up -or something like that. She was not at the house enough to know a lot of the details, only knowing what she did because it was a big deal for the family. The winged witch's romance. And seeing them rumpled and smiling so longingly at each other so as they switched rooms... well it left a strong impression on her. Someday it would be wonderful to have someone that made her feel as those two clearly made each other feel.
The sun on her fur felt warm... good. "I think I'll take a nap in the sun today... maybe stop by the house later." It was something. There was no real reason Yun spoke her decision aloud, she just did.
