Cenric laughed, shaking his head, "Well, if he was, then he better be happy with long term companionship." He brought her closer and pressed a kiss on her forehead, "But in all seriousness, Asha, this is what I - and my cat - want. It might not have been what we'd known all our life, but when it was the right moment... well my cat didn't give us a choice." His face sobered and he leaned back to meet her gaze, "What about you, though? You didn't really have a choice in any of this."
Iona smiled at him, "Oh, is that right? And I just thought you were sneaking away to be with me, but now that I know the truth... well this just isn't as exciting anymore." She teased, sitting back in her chair, "But, really, how many women were there?" She lifted a brow, "Is there a waiting list? Am I number thirty-seven?"
Kyle sniffled, then nodded, "Ok... you promise you'll wake me, right?" He met Ialu's gaze, then looked at his mom, "Can... can you stay too?"
Sarah bit her lip, then nodded, "Sure, honey," She said, though she knew better. She wouldn't be able survive that fire, but she couldn't say no to her son, not when he was looking at her like that, "We can all sleep in my room." It was the only bed big enough for the three of them.
Nik grinned at Aspen, running her thumb over the baby's cheek, "We're going to be the best aunts." She smiled at Aspen, then at her brother and his sister. She just couldn't believe how accepting and... awesome this family was.. and she was so glad to be accepted in it.
Ryn gave a tiny choke as she tried to hold back her laughter, her gaze landing on Aspen's bald head, "I think you have a point. She shouldn't live this down." She returned her gaze to Elias's, "I'm still glad that everyone came home safe... and mostly whole," She said, still teasing about Aspen's hair.
