"Yeah, that one! It's probably the best way to introduce her to this kind of stuff, really..." Titania smiled. She had played a good deal of that game since they had purchased it--it was pretty comfy. Though, her own DS was hidden away. Nereid was, meanwhile, engrossed in the game, listening to every bit of explanation provided by her mother while Titania noted the pakes.
"Now, if you'll excuse me..." The fairy tried to cut herself a chunk of the pancakes. Hey, in her defense, she was pretty hungry at the moment!
Meanwhile, with the game, Nereid had come to a conclusion. "...It looks very fun! I...don't think I can play yet, though. Maybe not right now. But someday." She had a very fond smile on her face--one you'd see on Titania, normally. If there was any doubt that this was their kid? Let that smile prove otherwise.

Luckily, Solomon had made enough pancakes to feed all three of them. Guess he expected the new parents to eat some too! Mizu, too, grabbed one with her mouth and nibbled on it while she watched Nereid look at the game. Ah, and the little one seemed to not be able to play yet. Mizu giggled, swallowed her pancake and patted Nereid. "Well, then you just need to wait a bit! Yup, soon enough you can enjoy all these things~ And then Momma will buy you an own console so you can play games on it~" She giggled, and then grabbed another pancake to eat, putting another in front of the Bukamon!

Nereid simply looked down at her flippers. Unfortunately, Bukamon lacked opposable thumbs with with to actually...play the game with. Oops. Well, there wasn't much else to do but eat. The in-training just stared at the pile of pancakes before she reached over to try biting a chunk out of them.
...Oh, right, you're supposed to chew these. Nereid had stood there for a moment with a mouthful of pancake before she actually chewed and swallowed. "I like this!" The Bukamon exclaimed.
Meanwhile, Titania had been cutting out her own bits of pancake and silently eating, before she slid her plate over with the silverware arranged in that gesture that meant that the food was great. "Done now."

Soon, nothing remained of the pancakes. The new family was quite satisfied. Solomon returned to their table, holding a large bowl of slightly yellow pudding in one arm, and a large bowl of yoghurt with nuts and fruit in it in the other. "Did you enjoy the food?" Mizu hiccuped. She usually did that instead of burping as that would be unladylike. "It was most delicious!~" Solomon nodded. He usually did that instead of smiling because he couldn't smile. "That makes me glad to hear. Here is the promised Vanillamp Pudding. I need to get this brainfood yoghurt to Ayumi before she burns herself out again. I'll be back shortly." With that, he put the pudding onto the table, and left. There was a bit of silence. "...oops, he forgot the bowls and spoons."

Who knew two rookies and a hungry in-training could absolutely demolish a platter of pancakes? Titania had taken to leaning back in her chair in a (slightly) lazy fashion as Solomon deposited the pudding on the table, and...
Forgot the silverware. And bowls. "Hey, wai-"...Titania was a tad too late. The silence descended upon the table, before Nereid, without any sort of provocation or warning, slowly clambered up and leaned in to take a bite out of the pudding herself. Did she care about the silverware? Nah.
Bowls? A little bit.
And did Titania seem to notice any of this? No, not really. So, what would Mizu do here?

And what did Mizu do? She giggled, and gently pushed Nereid's head away from the bowl. "Ah ah aaaaaah! Dear, that's not proper and ladylike! A proper lady uses cutlery and a bowl!" She looked around. There was none set out, but there ought to be some in the many cupboards! So, the Betamon waddled over, and began pulling open closet doors with her stubby little legs. She found bowls, but no cutlery. She tried to stand on her hind legs to reach the drawers, buuut she was too short to reach! "Uuuuuh, little help here? I am sadly not gifted with opposable thumbs!"

Nereid's head was kept from the bowl! She looked to her mother with a blank stare on her face. "But moooooom." She began, raising her flippers. "I have no hands." It was true, she really didn't! Such implements would be useless to her unless Mizu taught her the way she herself used to eat food or play games.
Titania had actually started to doze off before Mizu called for assistance, and the fairy sprang to action, flying towards her with a yawn before she threw open the drawers and grabbed some pairs of cutlery. "Here, sorry!" She uttered before she would help Mizu with bringing them back to the table. She'd also help with serving the pudding if need be!

Once cutlery and bowls had been placed, Mizu smiled and patted the Bukamon when she noted she had no hands. "You don't need hands, sweetie!~ All you need is a limb that can bend, and imagination!" Mizu then demonstrated by grabbing the handle of the ladle with her tongue, and put some pudding into a bowl. Then she grabbed a spoon with both of her foreclaws, and put one into Nereid's flipper, showing her to wrap the flipper around the spoon. "Like so! Just hold it, and eat it!" While she could not hold a spoon with her mono-clawed feet, she could still show Nereid how to use her flippers to eat. After all, Mizu, too, had been a Bukamon once!

"But...opposable thumbs..." Nereid lamented, quietly before Mizu started to manipulate her flippers herself. The thing here? It actually worked. Like a charm, at that. The Betamon knew what she was doing! The Bukamon stared at her flipper for a good, tense moment.
Was she actually going to eat it or was she just gonna drop it? The Bukamon slowly lowered her head down to take a bite out of the pudding at last! Some applause was heard from Titania's end--the fairy had been silently taking bites out of her own pudding as she was watching Mizu instruct their daughter.
It was actually a pretty riveting sight, all things considered. Nereid chewed her food up some and swallowed. "...This is good. Solomon does good food." The Bukamon decided, a little arbitrarily.

"Why thank you." The Monodramon had just returned, having delivered his energy-rich food to his hard-working tamer. "Do you wish to have anything else?" Mizu giggled. "Oh, Solomon, don't overfeed the little one, she was just born earlier, she's gonna burst at this rate! Besides, as phenomenal as your food is, there's so much more to show the little one around here, eh?~" "Ah yes, that is true, indeed. Very well, I'll just cut up some fruit as a snack." The Monodramon went back to the kitchen counter, while Mizu patted the Bukamon. "You'll like it here, sweetie~ There's so much to see and do!"

Both Nereid and Titania had actually almost jumped from the timely return of Solomon, the former glancing to the Monodramon for a few moments before she solemnly shook her head. "No, I think I'm actually full." Plus, she was actually a little tired, too. Should she tell them that?
Titania glanced between the two. Mizu had raised a good point, there was a lot to show their kid right now, but what should they do now? The answer to that, unshocking as it may be, was an involuntary yawn by the Bukamon. Oops. "...Hey, I think the little one might be a bit tired now..."
"I'll see and do things later, I swear..." Nereid murmured.

Mizu chuckled. "Guess the little one is tired! She did see and taste new things within her very first day of her life! Better put her to bed, let her rest!~" Solomon nodded in agreement. "Perhaps that is for the best. I am glad to have gotten the chance to be among the first to meet her. Have a good rest." He bowed to the three, then turned around, cleaning up his workplace. Mizu turned to Titania. "Now where should we lay the little one to sleep? On the sofa? On a bed in the group bedrooms? Maybe on the roof?~"

"Mmhmm, she did a lot of things in one day! Way more than human babies seem to be capable of doing." Titania actually chuckled a little before she turned her attention towards Mizu.
"That's a question I'm actually unsure of the answer to. Um...Where -do- you put a tired Bukamon? I've never dealt with one...Though, if I actually had to pick, maybe the sofa would be nice, at least until we can set aside a room for her and set it up accordingly..."
Another question in and of itself, how would such a room be arranged for a Bukamon? "...What should we do for her room, by the way? We should talk about that while taking her to a sofa." The fairy stated, moving to pick the sleepy Bukamon up and start flying her to their destination!

Mizu helped Titania carry their new child as she thought about what to put into her room. "Well, she definitely needs an aquarium! We teach her to love the sea from the get go! And she needs a TV, and some video games for fun! Oh, and she definitely needs a big closet full of lovely clothes to put on!~" Mizu giggled at the thought of dressing her in many beautiful clothes. "And she needs lots of books! Romance books and science books, to teach her about the world and romance! The latter *is* the most important thing in the former, after all~"

"That's actually a really tall order, think we'll be allowed to go through with that? I mean, I don't want to pile onto the efforts being made to reconstruct the parts of the Library that got...uh. Broken. Plus, she's already a Bukamon. I think if that indicates anything, she'll enjoy the waters a lot in life...Definitely needs that tv, though. And the video games." She didn't have those as a child, so maybe her own kid having these might make her a bit happier.
Wait. Wait a second. "...Do -you- have a closet to put clothes on? Or did you get that idea from looking at my closet?" Because Titania kept...a few infini-stores worth of clothes in her closet, to put it lightly. She also didn't have much of a comment about the books, though. "...And what sort of science? Marine biology?"
