There's more of them!

[PreussensGloria]

Gilbert doesn't respond, eyes riveted on the tiny little bird, which is now two birds... three birds.
Gilbird chirps happily and rubs against one of Gilbert's thumbs before flying back to what Gilbert has now discovered was a nest.

[LietuvaHetalia]

Still waiting for an answer, Toris drops the swords and despite the weight of his armor begins to climb up the tree.

"Prusija, what are you doing up there?"

[PreussensGloria]

"Litauen?" Gilbert remembers him and looks down, "Idiot, don't climb the tree with that plate armor on!" He looks back at Gilbird and the mini-Gilbirds in the nest.
"Litauen, I think Gilbird is a....... g-girl..."

[LietuvaHetalia]

...

"Why's that?" Curiously, he's back to the base of the tree and staying there. It's too much effort to climb with this stuff on, anyway.

[PreussensGloria]

He climbs a little bit further up into the tree, high enough so that he can pick up the mini-Gilbirds and put them safely in the hood of his cloak. Gilbird lands on his head and Prussia climbs down.
"Because look!" He motions to the three tiny birds in his hood.

[LietuvaHetalia]

Lithuania redirects his attention to the hood and gasps when he sees the three birds.

"They're..." He reaches out to pet one of them, very gentle, "...I guess this explains him- ah, her going missing, then."

[PreussensGloria]

As much as Prussia doesn't want to admit that Gilbird is a girl... He's a complete sucker for cute things and now he has lots of Gilbirds! The one Lithuania is petting nuzzles into his fingers and chirps happily.
"Yeah. You're right." He cranes his neck to try and look into his hood, which isn't exactly easy or comfortable considering its behind his head.

[LietuvaHetalia]

Toris sets the little bird on his shoulder and scoops the other two out of the hood to present to Prussia, given that he's obviously having a hard time seeing them. "What are you going to do with four of them, now?" He smiles, it'll probably be a lot of work for Gilbert.

[PreussensGloria]

Prussia takes them from him, smiling at them proudly before looking up at Toris, not really having thought of that. Gilbird, reestablishing his spot on Gilbert's head, watches her chicks carefully.
"Well," Prussia starts, seeing the little chick on Toris' shoulder nuzzle in the Lithuanian's neck happily, "If you want - and if Gilbird's okay with it -, I guess you could have one of them." Because its also a really adorable sight, and Gilbert is a sucker for cute things.

(Spread the love for Gilbirds everywhere!!)

[LietuvaHetalia]

Toris blinks, plucking the chick carefully off his shoulder and holding it up in the palm of his hand to observe it, until of course it responds by brushing up against his nose. He looks back at Gilbert, back at the chick, and then at the bird on Prussia's head for permission.

[PreussensGloria]

Prussia glances up, even though he knows he can't see Gilbird up there.
Gilbird looks at her chick, which looks at its mother and chirps. There is a pause and Gilbird chirps something back and then something to Prussia, who nods as his grin widens.
"Gilbird says its fine!"

(The Catholic Who Could Talk to Birds... oh my...)

[LietuvaHetalia]

Lithuania stares at him for a second because he just communicated with a bird, but shakes it off quickly and smiles tentatively.

"Well, okay..." He pets the little bird with one finger, it is adorable after all.

[PreussensGloria]

Gilbert brightens and his eyes light up, like a kid in a candy shop, "You really want to keep him?"
There he is, the nation of Prussia, standing in front of a guy in full plate armor who has his sword, with a bird on his head and two fluffy chicks in his cupped hands, getting excited over the fact that that same guy wants to take in one of his birds.

[LietuvaHetalia]

"Why not? I haven't had a pet for a few decades, it'll be nice." Toris smiles, an honest smile, and seems to remember something last minute, "Oh, I should give back your sword..." He sets the bird back on his shoulder and unties Prussia's blade from his side and offers it back.

[PreussensGloria]

(Silly pagan, the bird is obviously going to help Toris convert. It's a secret agent. Kesesese! *shot*)

Gilbert beams at him. When he's offered the sword, for a moment he looks confusedly from the sword to the chicks in his hands before placing them back in his hood carefully, in order to free his hands.
He takes his sword back and attaches it back to his belt, "Thanks, by the way, for helping me find Gilbird."

[LietuvaHetalia]

"It was no problem," Toris smiles at him, it's in his nature to be helpful. "You should get them back to your house before dark, though, or it'll be dangerous." Lithuania also doesn't want Prussians wandering around in his forest at night, but that's another story.

[PreussensGloria]

"True. My Grand Master'll probably be worried about me." He didn't exactly tell him where he was going and maybe he feels a little bad about that... His smile turns a bit more brash, "Psh, I'm not scared of the forest after dark!"

[LietuvaHetalia]

"Yes, but I'd rather you not be in my forest after dark." The tone is clear enough: Although Prussia has given him a bird, and they may get along under some circumstances, Lithuania doesn't trust him.

[PreussensGloria]

He sighs, "Fine. But take could care of Gilbird Junior, okay?" He looks at the small bird nuzzling into Toris' neck and smiles.
