Though Gabriel was perhaps a bit less normal than his siblings, she didn't mind. Rather than making Epiphron less inclined to play with him, instead it drew her to the youngster. It wasn't because she could relate to him particularly well -- no, she'd always been plenty sociable, always enjoying spending time with her family -- but she simply liked the boy. It seemed like he could use a friend, in particular an older one, to keep him company. And so she would be that friend.

He denied that he would like the attention of older women. Epiphron simply laughed, amused by his innocence, marveling in it silently. She watched as he groomed himself, seeming preoccupied by staying neat and clean, rather than playing. "Siblings are important, though, Gabriel," she remarked lightly. "You can't forget that, in the end, your family's all you've got!" It was a bit of a somber thought for such a young child. He seemed rather inclined to wander by himself, which wasn't an entirely bad quality -- though it often proved dangerous.

"Yes, Gabriel, once you're my age you are allowed to go anywhere you want." She grinned, sliding forward to plop down beside him on her hindquarters. "I like the ravine. It's very dangerous to go on your own, but it's far east of here. It's a giant valley in the ground, with a little stream running down it. Maybe I can take you sometime!"
