New toys.[Private, IO.]

The frame of the 'Tiny Lord' of the Volcano village is currently in 'resting' upon the couch in the home of his 'Fruitloop man' who provides him with food and training.
The cause of his resting is the rather tiring day he had beforehand, the strange men offered him food and then starting sticking patches of wire to him he didn't mind as they kept handing him meat every time he started to look irate.
Afterwards they slid a pair of golden bracers over his gauntlets and sent him on his way.

His scarf is curled around him like a makeshift blanket his eyes open halfway while in his resting..luckily the strange creatures are not around allowing his resting to go off unhitched, his body is at the utmost of relaxation leaving him aware...but vulnerable.
His ears are perked up and his nose is waiting for any scents that might tip him off to any danger..

Aura would wake up from another lonely night without her sensei, Shouten. Sighing Aura would get up and make her bed that Shouten had prepared for her to sleep in when she arrived. Stretching her body Aura would walk to her dresser pulling out one large white shirt to cover her body. The shirt covers down to her thighs, since Aura prefers to sleep with no close on because of the heat she would peek out of her room looking in the hall for the supposed 'other' person who lives here. Shanks, or atleast Aura thinks that's what Shouten had said. Said he was kind of dangerous, but Aura not seeing anyone in the hallway would make her way down the stairs thinking on what she would cook for breakfast today. Her delicate steps making small creaks to be heard.

Shanks eyes pan over to the stairs as a creak his heard, his body beginning to leave it's resting state his breathing quickening making him seem slightly feverish his eyes still half lidded as he tries to bring himself out of his relaxed state upon the presence of possible danger.

Aura would tilt her head seeing something on the couch, slowly she would walk over and squint. It seemed like a small child would be resting on their couch, is this the Shanks that Shouten was talking about? If it was he looks far too harmless to be him. Aura would speak softly to him for it looks like he was sleeping and she might've disturbed him. "Hey there, who might you be? You wouldn't be Shanks would you? Are you feeling okay?" She would ask in concern, he certainly didn't look well, but Aura wanted to maintain space between the two if he turned out to be as dangerous as Shouten described.

His eyes close and he bares his fangs trying to look intimidating as his brow furrows a soft growling noise coming from the back of his throat in response to ward off the female getting close, he can't lash out just yet as his frame is still unable to move...plus she seems to know his name..meaning she must know the Fruitloop.

Aura would gasp and take slow gradual step closer to him, "Hey, don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you. Do you have a fever? I'm going to place my hand on your forehead okay? I just want to check your temperature." Once she gets about a foot away from the child she would start to slowly reach her left hand out  slowly. This is to let him know that she is no danger to him, her hand slowly making its way to his forehead. If he allows her to, her wrist would place itself upon his forehead to see what he felt like.

Shanks leans back his scarf uncurling from his body revealing his tiny frame covered in his slightly worn clothing he tucks his head inwards his eyes closing slightly his frame unable to lash out with any proper strength to knock the hand away expecting the woman to slaughter him, as is his experience with humans especially in this village he grits his teeth a bit harder his arm raising weakly before dropping down onto the couch feebly, his eyes closes tighter his brow furrowing.
His skin is warm to the touch his silver bangs being ruffled as her hand is placed against his forehead, the warm feeling is due to the blood in his body being pumped at a much faster rate, the boy being hungry almost constantly as a result of his metabolism.

"Hmmm, your warm, really warm. Have you eaten? Are you hungry? Thirsty?" She would ask him in her soft voice that she would use around the children in Suna. She would pull her hand away from the almost cowering form and think. "I'm going to make something to eat then, that might help. You look so thin." She worries and fawns over the child. 'If that's Shanks there must be something wrong, I expected him to pull out a knife and threaten to take my hand before letting me feel his forehead.'

Aura would walk into the kitchen getting out many ingredients, white rice since its very filling, various veggies, bacon, because he probably like meat, and some beef she had made the other night. She begins cooking order from hardest to the easiest and begins to cook the rice in boiling water before peeling and chopping the veggies to add to the rice. Once she is able to let the veggie rice sit she moves over to grab a frying pan to start frying the bacon, because that's the best way to make it, not too crispy and not too under cooked. Once the pound of bacon is cooked enough she moves it onto a plate and tosses the pan into the sink. Last thing is the beef stew and places it on the stove on low heat, because the stew is already perfectly cooked it just needs to be reheated.

Shanks blinks in slight shock at the woman who seems to begin talking in a circle before running off to make him food, the smells of the food beginning to rouse him further.
When the food is done he hops off the couch, the scarf curling upwards so it does not drag against the floor, the part bunched up around his neck holds the Volcano village headband plate.
His blinks his slitted crimson eyes curiously the smell of the food drawing him to walk inside and peak his head into the kitchen blinking once his nose twitching once as he takes in the scents.

Aura, who is now stirring the beef stew to make sure it does not burn, smiles towards her new friend who had enough strength to come and eat, "Hey there, why don't you take a seat at the table? The stew will be ready in a little bit. Just have to heat this up enough and then grab you some rice!" She say gently trying to get him to see that she won't harm him.

 Letting the stew sit for a bit she would grab the plate that the bacon is on and a spoon to start scooping a rice unto the plate until the whole plate is full, she's not really sure how much he can eat. Once the plate is full she sets it down with the spoon sticking out of the pile of rice, next Aura moves to grab a bowl and fills it with about three cups of stew before grabbing a smaller spoon to put in the bowl so he can eat it. After that Aura grabs a bread stick and breaks it in half before sticking them into the stew so he can dip them.

Finally finishing the meals she would  place them on the table and she would start to serve herself a bowl of rice before taking a seat at the table across from the side that she had placed his food, hopefully to boy will come to eat with her.
