[ It takes Izana a few moments of examining the cart's gear, before he maneuvers Chichiri just so, and his fingers start working on what's available, tugging on and tightening straps and buckles, to make sure that it won't get loose. Chichiri's tack is not meant exactly for this, but he can make it work. ]
There, I think that should be good.
[ Chichiri herself is not happy with this, but she knows that it's a one-time thing. ]
[ Izana shivers at those words, but he just focuses on what he can do.
Holding Chichiri still while Machina is loaded, and then later unloaded. Helping settle the crystal in their room. Thanking everyone who helped. Then he's back downstairs, trying for a tentative smile at Ace. ]
Thank you. I'll go get Chichiri back to the stable, then come back to see what the other two birds need.
[ The month is cool enough that Izana doesn't even hesitate in setting the temperature a bit high in the room. Kotomi is usually under a special heating light, anyway. ]

action;
Sorry Chichiri. It'll be over soon.

[ Have you even met Kotomi, Ace... ]
action;
Okay.
[Not officially but Ace did hear about Chichiri the duck and Kotomi.]
action;
Want to go up get a hot shower? We, ah, got a little drenched back there.
action;
Just a towel would be fine.
[Though Ace does move to take off his cloak so it stops dripping everywhere.]
