Chapter 20:Komoriuta.
"Byssan lulla lite barn...Aldri meire gråte. Byssan lulla lite barn, aldri meire gråte. Stjen...Stjer...Stjerner kilv...Kiln...Kvil...Kviler i vår Bork...Mm! Kviler i vår Bjork, runt...Rundt omkring står natta mörk. No...No skal barnet sove... Byssan lulla..."
"You know that's Norwegian you're singing, right? If I'm not mistaken--Which I might be, never was too good at language--you're singing a lullaby. Either that, or some kind of ritual chant. But I think it's a lullaby." Tremaine chuckled at the look on Harry's face. He had been standing a few feet away from the kid, brooding, when he heard him muttering to himself. Thinking something was bothering him, he went over, but he saw that Harry was just trying to write down the words to a song he was trying to sing.
The paper in front of him, and tiny pencil he had, Harry's favorite pencil he had learned, had scribble and chewing marks on them. Harry stared at him, his eyes impossibly wide in his small head.
"Can you tell me what it means?" Tremaine blinked at him, then answered shortly.
"No."
Harry's face fell, his went back to their normal size, and he bent his head back over his paper. An owl landed in front of Harry, and he looked up and smiled. Harry had taken a special liking to the small white owl, with her big amber eyes, and her almost-human personality.
"Hi there. So, you're back. Did you have fun playing with Puriti and the girls?" The owl hooted angrily, ruffling her feathers and shaking her head. Harry laughed, thinking of Ajalaa and Serena playing with the slightly aloof owl and the over-excitable fox cub. Disaster waiting to happen.
"Owl! It is back, again! You had better not eat us, or I'll bite your beak off!" Ashni, Harry's lavender patterned snake, hissed at the white owl when she saw her.
"Oh, hush! She's not going to eat you. She is so much more civilized than that. Plus, she likes rats, and those little owl treats you can get at that Owl shop in the Alley. She doesn't eat snakes. Says they have too much fat in them. Though I'm not entirely sure you guys do." Harry rolled his eyes, not in the least bit worried about his snakes and owl not getting along. Harry turned back to Tremaine and raised an eyebrow.
"Where's Rhapsody? Or is she still mad at you, and off fuming?" Tremaine stared a moment, then quirked a sarcastic grin.
"Fuming. And yes, she's still mad at me. Can't believe she cursed at me." He said, mumbling the last part under his breath. Harry snorted, reaching out to stroke the owl's favorite spot, the very top of her head.
"Yeah, well, I woulda done worse. You wouldn't believe how many curse and swear words I've learned from not only my uncle, but Aunt Petunia, too. She has a real wide variety of swear words." Tremaine's eyebrows hit his hairline. How interesting. He'd work on that later.
"Rhapsody is still talking to Machi. Last I heard, the elf was singing your praises. You make a real impression on people, human or not." Tremaine peered at him through his bangs.
"Don't know why. S'not like I try or anything. Plus, I don't like people. It's much better to sit alone and read or something." Tremaine snorted, and replied sarcastically.
"Don't expect to get that in this family. Rhapsody won't have you sulking off in a corner somewhere. And Serena won't let you lock yourself in your room. Aji will always get you to play with her. Gosh, she's like a puppy, sometimes. Amaryssein won't mind though. As long as you let her join you." He chuckled at the last. Harry peered at him curiously.
"How come you never laugh?" Tremaine looked at him strangely, and shook his head.
"I just did."
"No, you didn't. That wasn't a laugh. You never laugh outright. It's sad. I've heard Amary laugh, and Serena, Aji, and Rhapsody, but I've never heard you laugh. Would you quit hissing at her? She's not going to eat you, so back off her, okay? Geez, you're such a worry wart. Now stop insulting my owl, otherwise I'll not give you any mice!" Harry batted Ashni on the head lightly, and pointed a finger at her. The snake recoiled slightly, and stared at Harry, as if to say, 'But whyy?'
"You're one strange kid, you know that? What was wrong with my laugh?" Harry rolled his eyes.
"You laugh like my godfather. A hollow, haunted laugh. There's no warmth in it. Even Aunt Petunia laughs better than you do, and that's saying something." Harry said all this in a drab, plain voice, as if talking to someone younger than himself, but with no condescending. Tremaine rolled his eyes this time, and spoke in a mocking voice.
"Then what should I do to make my laugh a pleasing sound to people's ears, oh master of laughter?" Harry just stared at him a moment, then suddenly stood up, perched the white owl on his arm and started walking off, saying over his shoulder.
"Enjoy yourself. For once." Tremaine stared after him incredulously.

"Where is everybody?" Harry asked, walking over to Serena and Amaryssein. Serena gives a small smile.
"Machi already took Rhapsody and Ajalaa to the house. She said she'd be back in a few for us. She has to rest first." Harry cocked his head to the side, the one that didn't have an owl sitting there.
"Is it too hard for her?" He asked, concerned. Amaryssein shook her head and smiled.
"It just tires her out to transport more than just herself. To transport not only one but two people, it takes a lot of her. It may take a little while, but we'll all get there. You just wait, by the time we get there Rhapsody will have cleaned out three rooms, and have Aji working on another." Harry chuckled, knowing she was right. He would be doing the same thing once he got there. He wanted to tire himself out by nightfall.
And that was exactly what happened. By the time they all got there, it was about six A.M., and Harry was worried.
'I'm going to be sleeping during the day now!'
Harry decided then that he wouldn't be sleeping the day away, even though Ajalaa and Tremaine decided they didn't care. Harry helped clean the whole house with Rhapsody, Amaryssein, and Serena. And by the time they were done, it was night. Tremaine and Aji had woken up, and weren't able to get back to sleep. Rhapsody just shook her head, and said.
"I told you so."
Then herded Harry, Amaryssein, and Serena off to bed.
