[ yeah that tracks. the baby continues to look at saya curiously, chirping softly as she speaks. ]

I think they were also just feeling a little lazy, but a punishment would also make sense. [ a hand reaches up to pet the cloud. ] Their kind are called cacodemons, but...it's kind of a difficult term to remember sometimes and doesn't suit it, so it's easier to call them Cocoa Puffs.
