Zander has left little Ceru in Harper's care as they needed to take Arma to the centre of sorts.
Ceru has brought her bowl over to Harper. Why Harper? because Ceru likes them... and it's fun to pester them sometimes. she's bapping and tossing the bowl about all the while babbling away to herself.
Ceru is hungry. But at least she's not crying loudly. No, Instead she's trying to be cute to get Harper's attention.

Harper thought that Ceru was off playing with her toys, but here she was, tossing her bowl around. They chuckled. She reminded them of Notch when he was hungry.
"Alright, sweetie, let's get you some yummy berry puree," Harper said, picking her up and taking her to the kitchen.
Lord help me my imagination needs therapy. I straight up saw the Hyena scene from the lion king (not the live action) but with Tublades, Rampart and Notch. Notch kinda being the Simba of the situation, he was protecting Harper. And the two very angry taller knights being Mufasa (I can't spell names lol).
Skylertheminish.
Anyone who messes with Harper or Notch won't live for long with the tall knights around
Tublades let himself fall over onto his back from Notch's tackle. Little did Notch realise that he fell for Tublades's trap! "Caught you!" Exclaimed Tublades as he threw his arms around Notch in kind and gave him nuzzles.
"you cannot escape my hugs! Dear little brother. You're trapped here with me forever!!" Tublades beamed.
Skylertheminish.
Notch squealed with delight as he happily fell for Tublades' trap. He giggled and chirped as he was hugged and nuzzled, happy to give some nuzzles in turn.
His eyes then sparkled. Dear little brother? He was a dear little brother!
Tublades is in a silly mood and is sneaking up on Notch. it's clear he's only half trying as he sneaks up on Notch. he has the scent of some treats on him.

Notch could sense Tublades approaching him, but he pretended not to notice. At least until Tublades was right behind him. That was when Notch turned around and tackled the tall knight into a loving hug!
Not quite a building ledge but still treacherous to run about on. Seems Tublades wasn't willing to give the Houndour a chance Harper @the-spam-specialist.
The knights listened to what Harper said. Now everything made sense! And Notch knew what to do, other than share his spoils with Notch that is. Tublades went to join Notch but was surprised to see him run over with a flower!
Taking the delicate flower with one blade, Tublades examined it before tucking the flower neatly into his armour. "Why thank you Notch! i'll treasure it. in the meantime how about we forget about training and focus on playing?" Tublades then knelt down and whispered while giving Notch head pats "and why don't we keep the food I took our little secret hm?".
Rampart Just gave Harper some headpats before being distracted by Ceru. she was trying to do the techniques she saw earlier. She wasn't strong enough nor mature enough to perform them, But she had plenty of spirit!
"Cewa! Fwedge!! Ce-wa-fedge!" she spun around and tripped over herself.
skylertheminish.
Notch cooed happily at the head pats, jumping up and snatching a donut from the food stash Tublades was holding before running off and laughing, initiating a game of chase.
Meanwhile, Harper watched Ceru's attempts at pulling off attacks. They picked her up, "Alright, little warrior, that's enough excitement for you."
Another towering knight is making their way over to the house. Rampart leaves the house carrying a Harper and joins Tublades and Notch with a tiny Ceru following them from behind.
The brothers try to communicate what they'd like Harper to do via gestures and drawings in the dirt.
Ceru seems excited about what might happen.
Skylertheminish.
"So you've had difficulty getting him to pay attention?" Harper deduced from all of Tublades and Rampart's mannerisms. "I guess I should have expected this. We've been leading a non-battling lifestyle since...well, you know."
Harper looked over at Notch, who was looking through the garden and admiring the flowers.
"But he really likes you guys. I thought trying to get him to train with you would be the best way for him to bond with you two. But it looks like, at this point, you can't get him to battle unless I'm in danger."
Notch ran over to Tublades with a flower, giving it to the taller knight.
A towering knight has somehow helped himself to some food from the kitchen. Anything he could carry from biscuits to a freshly baked pie were not safe from his blade-like grasp.
He's gone back to where he's training Notch, holding the food out of reach of Notch and his phantom force.
"Now then, Consider this a challenge or game Notch. Try to do what I've been trying to teach you. And I'll give you some food as a reward".
Rampart is chuckling away to himself.
Skylertheminish.
Notch whined as Tublades kept the food out of his reach. Instead of trying the techniques he hadn't even paid attention to, Notch attempted to climb Tublades to get to the snacks. But he tumbled off.
He then turned his eyes to the pile of berries Rampart was snacking on.
He should have listened to Harper. He clearly didn't think this through! But now there was a knight lying on the floor. But on the plus side it seemed like he was free! Not that he was truly stuck in the first place.
"Heh, sorry about that. Didn't expect Notch to drop like a bag of rocks". Zander apologised as he tried to sneak past Notch and go to check on everyone else. Namely Arma.
Skylertheminish.
Notch quickly snapped out of it, scooping Zander back up and nuzzling him.
Harper sighed, walking past them, "I'll go check on the others."
"It seems the decision to stay here with Notch was made for me" chuckled Zander as he was subject to more nuzzles.
"Tell ya what. I'll make myself useful!" Zander took the chance to give Notch scritches on the corner of his jaw, just behind the ear. Like he did with Arma.
"You've seem to have taken this odd situation in your stride Notch! Poor Arma hasn't done as well. He keeps worrying about me bless him".
Skylertheminish.
"Wait, Zander, I wouldn't do that if he's standing up-" Harper tried to warn, but it was too late.
The moment Notch felt the scritches, his legs gave out as his whole body went limp. He fell to the floor, sprawled out on his back.
"Harper! Can...can I have some help please?" Zander rattata asked, still in Notch's affectionate hug and nuzzles. "I have to make everyone's dinner" he chuckled only to realise what he said.
"... maybe I should just order dinner? Gonna be hard tae cook as a Rattata".
Skylertheminish.
"Notch, put Zander down already," Harper said, reaching out to take the poor rat away. But Notch stepped back, whining and holding Zander close before resuming his nuzzling.
Harper rubbed the back of their neck, "I'll just, uh...order us some pizza."
