Julian was an eccentric, pompous man who indulged in the many pleasures life has to offer, the brothers knew that. Among Julian, Leonard and Hugh, Julian meddled the most with the humans. None of them liked the sinful creatures, but one aspect that the brothers couldn't deny about them was their sense of creativity. There were a handful of times when they were all readily impressed by their new discoveries in music, literature and art, and, though Hugh and Leonard wouldn't admit it openly, have a small collection of items and creatures obtained from meager stalls. Well, Julian's wouldn't be something called "small," considering that valuable paintings, sculptures and crafts were littered within his treasury. The hedonist was proud of it, and perhaps valued it as much as their Father valued gold.

The brothers also had love for specific kinds of animals, those of which personify them best. Leonard had a lion in his tower - fierce, strong, and wouldn't hesitate to battle when threatened. Hugh had an owl - mystic, wise and profound. And Julian…

Well, Julian…

Leonard was seething at what he was seeing. Hugh rubbed his forehead with the pad of his fingers to cast the first signs of headache away. The king merely raised an eyebrow at the creature his closest confidante was pulling to his tower.

"Now, now, no more of that, pet. No! Do not - don't eat that! Mother loved that tree - there, that's a good boy, Julian Jr."

The two brothers who were watching the hedonist pull the giraffe into his garden cast a look at each other, then to the king who stood between them. The elder noticed their stares and gave each of them an amused smirk. He took note on how their eyes pleaded for him to do something about that abomination our ignorant brother is violating our kingdom with!

The king, who guessed correctly on what they were thinking, laughed and patted them both on their shoulders.

"You greedy boys have your own pets; let him have his."


AN: This is a fanfic about the Sky Kingdom. I just watched Wardifre's playthrough of DP: Jack and the Sky Kingdom, and I just love how there was a giraffe in one of the brothers' towers! I played the game before, but I reacted minimally to it. Wardfire's reaction was just precious. She was like, "OH, okay, why is there a GIRAFFE in this place."

Yah, so I hope you like this! I'm guessing that since Julian is an eccentric kind of guy, he'd want something that would greatly, well, speak volumes of his character. What's a better creature of showing how fabulous you are other than a giraffe, huh?!

BTW, Julian seems like the type of guy whose full of himself. I can totally see him naming his giraffe Julian Jr.
