Peki is not best pleased by the proffered hand, though fortunately Era knows her chocobo all too well and has already sparked her hands with lightning aether to distract him. It works, of course—Peki gives a little hop as he looks down at her, feathers fluffed irritably. She feels no guilt, perfectly aware of what one of his pecks can do.

"Peki, this is Regis," she informs her avian companion sternly, gesturing up toward the man in question (and shooting him an exasperated look of apology). "He's like Edmont."

Peki perks up when he hears Edmont's name, tail feathers wagging. Era grins, gesturing at Regis again to reinforce the concept.

"Family." She waits a moment to let that sink into her bird. Once she's sure it does she continues: "So be a good boy or I'll roast you!"

Satisfied that Peki won't suddenly attempt any overprotective maiming, Era will accept Regis' help in getting back to her feet.
