“Ah we made that up. It’s a combination of goat and bee. If you notice the two different counter parts..” she’d mutter pointing at the male who had seemed calm down

Jo gave Tobe a good look, grinning. “Oh, I get it! I get it.” She clicked her tongue. “So, he’s called a “geeb” (my autocorrect wants to make it ‘gerbil’ ) because of his goat-like parts as well as his bee parts! Right?”

“Yeah!” Ella would nod happily, “exactly!”

“Nice!” Jo said. “Are there any other geebs, besides Tobe? Or is he a unique species?”

“As far as we know he’s the only one so far that’s this far out. There could be more but we have yet to figure out where or discover others.” Tobe’s head would turn at the mention of others like him and his head would tilt

"Well... that can be good right?" Raph said, still sounding hopeful, "That means maybe they decided not to attack or forgot to or something, right?" He wanted to give Charles an encouraging hug, but wasn't sure if the king would appreciate it.

Charles would only shrug, taking in a deep breath and attempting to relax his tense shoulders. “We can only hope..” he’d pat Raph on the back

"Yeah." Raph looked at the floor for a minute, quiet. When he looked up again he was smiling and asked in a slightly forced, happier tone, "So uh, have you done anything fun as king yet? Like declared a new holiday where everyone is required to wear nothing but pajamas on that day?"

He would laugh and shake his head, “oh I wish. It’s just be guard assigning, training hours, supply runs, updates, thieves, blah blah blah…” he would end up grumbling.

"Thieves?" Raph repeated, eyes wide, before adding in a joking tone, "I mean, even if you haven't done anything fun yet, your job still sounds really interesting. Imagine the stories you could tell!"

“Yeah a few guys and gals thinking they can steal right in front of the guards.” He would pause and raise a brow, “ah yes. Tell my children of the time I tripped on my cape while trying to get to my throne, ah yes what a thrill.” He’d laugh

"Right in front of the guards hmm? Sounds like something my sister would do- I mean, not the theft, but just doing something like that for the adrenaline and danger," Raph said, before laughing at Charles' other comment, "Wait, did you really? You know what, I'm sure you tripped very gracefully."

Charles would only laugh with a cross of his arms. “It should have been but Michael states it was the funniest thing he had seen in his 16 years of living.”

Raph smiled, "Maybe one of these days Michael will be the one to do something embarrassing and then you could name that day National Remembrance Day, in remembrance of the time he tripped over his own cape or something else just as funny."

“How, interesting!” Jolene responded with an intrigued grin, her hands clasping together. “Tobe’s species sounds like a cool type of specimen. Very rare, too,” Jo murmured thoughtfully.
