Zipper warbled and grinned when Cirrus lifted their shirt. "Water! Wow, that's everywhere. That's powerful!" They said, waving their hands around in excitement. They turned to Call at her words. "Made. Oh no, no. I'm not made of wax. But Zipper makes wax. Be neat if I was made of wax though. I could change myself then." They said with a chitter and another grin.
At Call's question, Zipper paused a moment. "Hmm, yes-no. I can make a lot of noises. But I can not make many more noise maker things from my wax." They chirped and pulled some wax up. "I can make these noise makers. I saw a guide on the internet, though those were made of wood." With a flick of a wrist and their face screwed up in concentration, they present their new friends with a wax ocarina in swirling purples and greys. "Tada! See you can blow here and make pretty sounds. Make music!" They demonstrated, giving the instrument a hearty blow while flicking their fingers along the holes atop it. Clear sound rang out, though the tune was fairly random. "One of you can have, yes. Will not burn, will not cool. Zipper separated it from the other wax, so it's all alone now. It won't move anymore unless I call it back hard." They added, trying to explain how the wax wasn't a part of their magic anymore.
"Is sturdy, but still wax though. Can make another in a bit, if other wants." Zipper said cheerfully, murmuring a bubble of sound.

Cirrus watched closely as the ocarina was made. They envied Zipper's power a little -they themself were only able to create temporary objects that would fall apart as soon as they lost concentration- but they didn't let that diminish their enthusiasm. Once it was done, they stuck their hand up and waved it around in the air to try to grab Zipper's attention. "I'd like it!"

Call leaned forward, her emerald flame flaring in intrigue. "Oh, I see." That wax definitely was useful. If she had arms to inspect it with, she would have examined the object further.
Her mouth twitched at Cirrus' enthusiasm and she bared her fangs at Zipper - though not in a threatening form. "That's handy. You're very talented."

Zipper giggled at Cirrus's enthusiasm. "Yes, yes, you can have. Keep from hot spots and it should be good for a long time." They paused as the handed the instrument over, making small burbling noises under their breath. "If damaged, find Zipper to fix, yes?" They turned to Call.
At Call's fang-filled smile, Zipper released another of their own unique smile. "Would like one?" Another pause, with a confused sorta hum. "Er, can Call hold things? Zipper could give later, put in room?" Their ears twitched a bit as their antennae curled, unsure what to do, but wanting to share with both of their new friends.

Call found herself laughing, though not unkindly, at Zipper's inquiry. She probably should have addressed that issue. "Yes, I would like one. Don't worry, Zipper - I can levitate the wax." As a demonstration, she focused on the object in Cirrus' palms and they watched as it levitated a couple of inches above their hands. She set it back down gently and grinned wide at Zipper.
"I don't exactly...have arms," Call explained awkwardly. "If you make it I can cause it to float near me."

"Okay! I'll do that." Cirrus replied happily, examining the ocarina and considering where to put it in their room. They had very few possessions, so there was a whole lot of space for it to go in.
Absent-mindedly staring at the ocarina, they suddenly realized that in was no longer in their grip. They tried to catch it, thinking that they had accidentally dropped it or that it had accidentally sunk through their barely-solid hands, but glanced up and realized that it was Call lifting the wax instrument. They smiled sheepishly and let it drop back into their palm.

"Ahh! Okay, good, good. I can make another." Zipper said, bouncing excitedly in place. "Will be different colors, because it takes much more time to choose colors then to just let wax be colors it wants to be." They added as they called more wax from the surroundings to them. A short series of whistles, and a few moments of concentration later, and Zipper was presenting Call with her own ocarina.
"Good, yes. But skating!" Zipper trilled happily once they both had a gift, and swiftly turned back to their original activity. They weaved through a few pillars, setting off the chimes again, adding a loud warbling call of their own to the mix. "Happy noise chasing silence!"

Call levitated the ocarina toward her and willed it to float above her once it was completed. She let out a snort at how Zipper eagerly went back to skating on the floor.
"I have to say, this is a fairly nice space for skating. It is more open than the other wings, I believe." She spun around in place, admiring how high the ceiling went. She nearly laughed at how the ocarina turned as well with her.

Cirrus looked for somewhere to put the ocarina until they went back to their room, and eventually placed it into the loose folds of their scarf. Satisfied that it wasn't going to get lost, they followed Zipper back out onto the wide ballroom floor. They turned back only briefly to listen to what Call had said, and replied chirpily.
"Yeah! I hadn't even thought of this, but it's a great idea!"
Turning back around, they joined Zipper in whooping and setting off the chimes.

Call smirked at their enthusiasm and while she didn't exactly have feet to slide about on the smooth floor with, she decided to follow and hover about in a similar fashion. She spun around and watched the hem of her cloak fan out a couple of inches around her. Huh. This wasn't that bad.

[[OKAY. Been a while. Apologies for the wait. I can only ask forgiveness for I have no true reasons, other then the baseline of life is hard sometimes.]]
Zipper's warbles and clicks, trills and whistles sang clear and loud in the very open room. The sounds would only ever call louder whenever they caught sight of the others who had joined them. Friends! Oh, how they loved to make new friends. Especially when the friends were so happy to help chase away the silence. Despite their ears held tight to their heads, precaution against blinding, despite their new friends seeming immune to such things, it was clear in the rest of their body language that Zipper was nothing if not abundantly full of joy for the turn of events this night.
In align with their joy, Zipper had begun to spread their wax out even more, increasing the size of the "skating arena" in the room. After all, their were more people, so they had need of more room to skate. The wind chimes were redistributed, with more wax ones added as needed, each on accompanied with an approving croon from the creator. They only hoped that their friends would enjoy the expanded space, and that none of the higher ranked cult members arrived to ask exactly how Zipper was going to dispose of all the wax they'd called forth. They, really weren't sure what they'd do with it, but that was a worry for future Zipper. For now, skating and chasing away the dreadful silence!
[[PS. Preview isn't working for some reason so hope this turns out okay. XI ]]
