Can you do your very best not to embarrass me?
cyberkineticlola:
There are plenty of times. Starting with the fact that I didn’t tell your girlfriend everything she doesn’t know about you.
Yeah, and it’s going to stay that way, if you know what’s good for you.

cyberkineticlola:
When have I ever embarrassed you?
I think the better question may be, when haven’t you embarrassed me?

Of course you're invited.
widowromanova:
I know, I don’t know what I’m going to do with that girl. [Smiles, waving her hand] I’m sure nothing could prepare her for that. If I know Layla, she’ll get Annie in on it.
I suppose she’ll have to learn to fend for herself then. She can survive just about anything. I think she’ll be alright on a night out with her sisters. At least I certainly hope so.

widowromanova:
Mm, nothing too outlandish, since I know she’d probably get upset if it wasn’t very intimate. So nothing more than a family dinner and I don’t know, I’m sure Layla will try to drag her off to a club or something. She is turning 19 after all.
She’s getting old. [Chuckles] I’ll have to warn her about Layla’s plans then. Make sure she’s prepared to head into...

Sure, I guess not. And yeah, that’s me.
Nice to… meet you, I suppose. I’m never entirely sure what proper protocol is in situations like this. Does your mother know you’re here?

Of course you're invited.
widowromanova:
Let’s just say that if they truly wanted to kill you… They would have a long time ago.
Ah. That’s a somewhat comforting notion then. What are the plans, if you don’t mind my asking?

widowromanova:
Darling, they’re impulsive and overprotective boys.
So I’ve noticed.

Of course you're invited.
widowromanova:
I’ll make sure they promise. [Wrinkles her eyebrows] I feel like I’m missing something, though. Why would they strangle you and why do you not seem to be as well as you’re saying?
We simply have a bit of a… shaky history, your sons and I.

Uh…hey, dad.
I shouldn’t be surprised anymore, should I? You would be… Alex, then?

I know I could, darling.

widowromanova:
Oh but of course! I just need to find out where her brothers are, but it’ll be a divine occasion. How are you, darling?
As long as they promise not to strangle me, I think we’ll have fun. [Smiles weakly] I’m doing well, and yourself?

herdisofthor:
You’re lucky I like you. But I’m not going to talk to you the whole night. I’ll find some reason to give you the cold shoulder.
I’ll just have to find a way to warm it up then.

herdisofthor:
Oh no, I change my mind. You’re not invited.
I’m afraid your mother’s already invited me, love. You’re stuck with me.

Of course you're invited.
widowromanova:
Don’t let her tell you otherwise.
That’s kind of you, thank you. I’m sure whatever you have planned will be great.

herdisofthor:
You’re right, I have no plans whatsoever. Then again, I’m sure the family has something planned. If you want to spend it with us.
Is that a formal invitation to your birthday bash?
3 tags
herdisofthor:
Yeah, seems like something I should be famous for.
I suppose asking if you have any plans for your birthday is pointless then.

herdisofthor:
Well, I don’t know. I didn’t even remember.
Only you would manage to forget a day that is completely about you.

Oh, well isn’t this a surprise.
Well I couldn’t very well miss your birthday, now could I?

[Bounces on her toes, clapping happily] Great! What would you like to start with?
How about with my own children?

bellemarshall:
Would you like me to help you? Teaching is one of the things I do best.
That would certainly be helpful, yes.

bellemarshall:
Oh, well she’s not like that with you. Mostly just Alex, Adam and I and her cousins. Well, unless you’re Damien.
Apparently there is a lot I need to learn.
1 tag
bellemarshall:
I would hope not, I hate seeing her like that. Rose gets that way when she’s sad. Even though it’s usually over Lydia not wanting to play with her or Alex kicking her sandcastles.
Ah, so she’s her mother’s daughter. That’s good to know. I’ll have to keep an eye out for that, I suppose.

bellemarshall:
That’s good, I’m glad. She had confined herself to the outdoors, so I didn’t see her much.
That sounds like her. Hopefully that won’t happen again anytime soon.

bellemarshall:
Of course! How is mom?
She’s doing well. Much better, from what I can see.

bellemarshall:
No, but I don’t think it would have been right to. Did you see how they reacted when Jasmine said Uncle Ivan would come back? I figured it would be better to not interfere.
I suppose you have a point. All is right in the world now, at least.

bellemarshall:
Oh, but of course I did. However, I knew you would return, so I tried not to fret over the sadness.
Right, of course. I don’t suppose you told your mother that?

bellemarshall:
I’m well, thank you. And you? You look good.
For a man risen from the dead? I would hope so. [Smiles] I’m doing well, thank you. Did you miss me?

But only a little.
I knew you did. You love me too much not to miss me.

Of course you don’t. Off we go then.

herdisofthor:
Me, not so much. But Max definitely does. He told me.
Oh, Max misses me, hm? Well we can’t possibly have that. Perhaps I ought to take him for a walk. You can stay home.

I don't think it worked.
herdisofthor:
[Bends down and kisses the side of Caleb’s head before stepping over them to get to the bed] I told you so.
[Smiles and climbs onto the bed, pulling Herdis close and kissing her cheek] Goodnight, love.

herdisofthor:
You’re not allowed to be sad, Caleb. [Stops and leans against the door to the bedroom] Just like I predicted… [Nods at Max sitting on the bed]
There he is. [Grins and hurries over to the bed, scratching Max behind the ears] Missed me have you, old boy? [Laughs as Max licks his face] Guess he did miss me after all.

herdisofthor:
He makes a habit of waiting for me to come to bed. [Starts walking towards the bedroom] I’m sure he’ll be glad that daddy’s home.
[Takes her hand and follows her] He’d better, or I’ll be quite sad.

He’s doing well, a bit down in the dumps. But I’ve been keeping him fed.
Good, thank you. Perhaps he’ll be somewhat happy to see me again.

I can imagine. And how is our boy?

herdisofthor:
It’s not okay, Caleb. I can handle losing people. I’ve lost my parents and I’ve lost family, but losing you… I can take a lot of things, but I can’t handle going back to who I was before you. I don’t mean to, but I shut myself off and I push my family away. And it’s not their fault, I know that. But none of them are you. They can’t be what you are for me. [Looks down as tears begin...

herdisofthor:

[Cups her cheek] Herdis… You found me again. I’m alright. It’s okay.

[Closes her eyes, nodding] I know you don’t. [Lifts her head to look at him] Nothing felt right without you here.
Well I’m here now. You don’t have to worry about that anymore.
