FAMILY THINGS / Catch-all before the Beach Party

[Since Espio's arrival on the 3rd, Marco has been unwilling to put the chameleon down or let him out of his sight. Even worse than he gets with Thatch and Ace. After all, he might have trouble holding onto them, but he can usually FIND THEM again, Espio, on the other hand, was in a place Marco had troubles going, and almost no way to pull Espio out. So he'll be damned if he doesn't throw his all into keeping Espio here as long as he can. Probably at the expense of everyone's sanity including his own, however. Someone stage an intervention.]

[Around Attleton, Marco takes his best friend and baby bro to see the sights.]

[And mostly to show off his terrible crow and seagull posses. As you do.]

[Nova gets a short tour because ew skyscrapers are only good for haircuts and landing on.]

[And the Everglade... well.]

So I burned down the building I owned, and you'd have been proud of everyone else. They threw a fit, and deposed me from being a deputy. And now it's a rose garden in Kitten's honor. [Hence the fucking skulls and bloody swords. :|] Turnip farms probably make better sense in Fayren though, yoi.

[The one time Marco lets go of Espio and actually flits away, is to go do illegal shit that Espio would give him a hard time over. As you do. Besides he's hoping Ikki and Leanne can distract him with justice shit so he can go be a pirate okay.]

[TEXTS:]

[OTA:]

My bro from another world just got here from everything-is-an-illusion hell. [Be glad he left out the rest of the details.] Turnip party at the beach! Normal party at the beach this weekend you already know about, but someone throw presents at Namur's face, it's his birthday! ♥

And before you buncha losers whine about the heat, good. Stay home. Volcanic hibernators only! :P

[Locked to Grell]

Pinkie's here, but in a bad way. Go easy on him for a few days. No idea how to handle Ash and him yet. Or even pokemon.

Well, technically everyone can use it, they just don't know how and rarely need to use it. But whenever a human makes something that seems inhuman, way beyond their limits, like a mother lifting tons of weigth to save their baby... That's them taping into their Cosmos unconsciously.

[Ikki frowns at that.]

A curse? What type of curse?

[He can't help but snort at her plea to not tell Micaiah.]

Since when am I the type that goes around telling people that they are family? And even if I told her, I don't need an excuse or reason to. If she's not happy with it she will have to get used to it.

[Forced phoenix protector is a go.]

I see, I thought it was just the females due bearing a child with mixed blood. But now I'm curious as to what exactly causes the loss of magic. Does it happen as soon as the conception or just when the child is actually born?

I see. I wonder then how many times people has used it or know it happened.

[A small sigh and shrugs her shoulders.]

That is all that I know. But it probably linked to his long life.

[Okay, she is going to pout at him.]

I am serious, Darling. But thank you, for at least be willing to not tell her. In reality, I might be the one who slips it to her accidentally before she may be ready to hear.

[She takes another bite of the tart and ponders a moment.]

I have only heard rumors, my apologies, my love. I would like to think it happens the moment the child is born. If only because it will give me more time once a little one is in me.

Most people go through their lives without ever needing to use it. Or knowing it exists, and even those that use it once don't realize what it was.

Nowadays it's mostly a secret that's not meant for the whole world.

[Well, if she's going to pout like that he's going to have to lean in and kiss her.]

Then I'll let you have the full honour of traumatizing her by learning that she's related to you.

[He nods, calmly.]

It's okay, I just worry because I understand the toll it will take on you. Either way, Marco says we won't have Branded children, so let's not just think of the worst case scenario, hm?

I wonder how they would react to a bunch of people then using their cosmos. But still, I am glad then to hear not everyone can use it. I can see those who only want power will misuse such a gift.

[No! No cheating like that! That is so cheating as it works like magic to get rid of her pout.]

Are my pouts a signal for you to kiss me, Darling?

I shall have to pray that it won't be a traumatizing event for her. There are far better fates for her.

[A small sigh and... She gets up to move towards him, trying now to sit on his lap. She wants a cuddle.]

You should leave worrying about that part to me. It is a little strange that now, I feel more at peace about losing everything. I shall pray that Marco is right but... We honestly do not know until they are born. Though, will I still be attractive without my songs or my scent?

They usually can't believe their eyes, and we're often gone before they can check again. And those that know the secret, are people who would have no reason to tell about it.

[He chuckles at that.]

I'm going to say "no", otherwise you may start to do them on purpose just to get me to kiss you.

[He didn't expect her to want to sit on his lap but... He won't complain, shifting enough to help her in position, his arms automaticaly embracing her.]

Well, I was not aware your songs or your scent were what made you attractive so I'm going to take a wild guess and say that yes, you'll still be as attractive as always if not more.

[She couldn't help but to giggle.]

It was probably fun to see their faces. But good, there were some people to trust with the secret.

[Okay, she giggles a little.]

I don't know~ I will have to find others was to get kisses from you. I can never get enough of them.

[A contented sigh escapes her as his arms automantically embraces her.]

I am glad that not only will I still be attractive but even moreso~

[Just nuzzles against a portion of his neck that she focused on the night before.]

I am still the luckiest girl alive to have such a loving mate.

Well, even if they ran telling the secret, only those who serve the gods know how to use the Cosmos and how to train to be able to use it, so they wouldn't be able to do much.

[He smiles at her confidently, raising an eyebrow at her words.]

Oh? Is that a threat? Are you going to start plotting ways to trick me into kissing you?

[Here he steals a quick kiss, though he doesn't go far, pressing his forehead against hers.]

Am I such a bad husband that my wife must resort to tricks to feel loved?

I guess that I am lucky then to be trained by such a secret and special person.

[A playful smile forms on her face.]

Darling~ If it is a threat then it is the best one~ [A quick kiss.] Your kisses are like a precious treasure.

[She couldn't help but to giggle as he steals a kiss and her wings begin to glow in happiness.]

But you have already made me feel so loved, my husband.

[And okay, she goes to put up a fake pout.]

But you do make it hard to gain your treasure from being so big and strong.

Don't count your luck yet, I'll have to talk with Dohko first. The training I received was... Different. And I'm not going to make you go even part of that.

[He chuckles lightly.]

Oh, dear, should I pack our things and leave? I think being around Marco may yet turn you into a pirate thirsty for treasures.

Would you rather I left my treasures unprotected and for anyone to take?

Oh? But I thought you did a good job back in Nautilius.

[She couldn't help but to giggle and nods her head.]

It may be too late for me. Arrrrrr me matey. I will only hunt for the best treasures.

[And have another pout.]

No, I rather have it safe and protected. I wouldn't want to share such a precious thing.

Yeah, but that was different. There I could teach you through bending. If we're going to try to old fashioned way, I've no idea how to do it without risking your life.

It'll be good, I should talk to him more. And if we're going to have children I need to know how to do train them rigurously but without putting their lives in danger.

[His embrance tightens a bit as she mocks the pirate slang.]

Oh, no, maybe I should lock you away and do a therapy to help you recover.

[There's another chuckle as now it's him the one nuzzling her neck and kissing it.]

No sharing? What a selfish little queen.

I see...

[Okay, she couldn't help but to gain a warm loving smile.]

Listen to you... You already sound like the perfect father to our children.

[That is making her cannot wait even more to become with child. Right now, all she can feel was love and in turn, felt more loving all the way into her cosmos.

She giggles as he tightens his embrace around her and makes that threat.]

Yarharr~ Will you be the one to oversee my recovery? Cause pirates are meant to be free.

[Her eyes closed with a happy sigh, as she feels the nuzzles and kisses to her neck.]

Yes, I am quite selfish indeed. You see, my love.

I don't sound like such a thing... Though I wish that when our children are grown ups their veredict is at least close to that.

[He doesn't have a father figure to base himself on, all he has is the experience of being an older brother and he hadn't been a good one. If Shun had turned out fine was simply because the kid was just too pure for Ikki to ruin him. Hopefully, Leanne would be enough to compensate for Ikki's failures as a father and their children wouldn't end too affected.

Maybe he could also see if Regis was still around and if he could offer any word of advice for the future.]

I may as well, it would be dangerous to leave you under the watch of someone with less expertice and strength. Dangerous pirates should be kept a close eye on. Otherwise you may just run away after stealing everything from me.

Am I gonna have to try and chase those doubts away tonight, my love? You will be fine and already I can tell that you will be perfect. I promise I will do whatever I can to not let you fail them.

[And who cares if they are in the kitchen right now. She goes to start kissing his neck and face, trying to chase away some of his fears.]

I know that you will be the best father that you can be to them.

[A few more kisses until she stops. A playful smile now graces her features and nods her head.]

You know me too well, I make all my foes tremble and fall before me. Not even the strongest pirates are a match for me.

[You know, Nephenee really had been minding her own business. She'd just been walking by the kitchen to get to the bookcase to replace a book she'd finished...but then she'd heard talking and cooing and she'd hurriedly forgotten that and decided to watch a little from the doorway.

She normally isn't the sort to snoop, but boy is she a sucker for romance. As some might say, she is a 'shipper', and these two are so loveydovey it makes her heart melt. Ache a little too, for her own derp back home, but she is so happy for these two and they'd finally done things (she is quite certain of this because of the 'glow' they both had...) and eeeee.

For her part she is actually quiet for a very long time, and then she accidentally drops her book. -THUNK!- it goes and she hurriedly stoops down to pick it up...but there was no way she's not going to get caught!]

No need to chase doubts away, though if you want to try I won't tell you to not do it. I just hope it's not just because of the doubts, though.

[He chuckles and hums appreciately at her kisses. Those fears and doubts will probably always be there, he knows that, even if he ignore them, they will remain there in the back, watching. Waiting. Just like his doubts and fears regarding failing his brothers or Athena. But it's okay, he can live with them and won't let them stop him from going forward, but how tell that to Leanne? It felt as if the very fact of there being doubts was something bad in her eyes.]

Not even the strongest pirates, huh? What about one of the strongest Saints-

[He had sensed Nephenee but Leanne was being far more distracting and interesting so he had ignored her presence. After all if she needed something she would tell them and even if she was spying she was being far less obvious and obnoxious than a certain blue phoenix would be.

However there's really no one he could ignore the dropping noise, in fact for a second he worries that she had fallen, so he quickly turns his attention away from his wife to focus on the other.]

Nephenee! Are you okay?!

No, not just the doubts. It will also be to show you how amazing you are to me, my love.

[Those types of doubts were bad if only because she doesn't want him to be held back by them. She nuzzles him with a sigh.]

I just worry if I will be as good of a mother to them as you.

[She didn't sense Nephenee's presence. There was no need to try. In fact, it was hard to notice anything other than her mate.

But then he turned his attention away from her and it was then she registered the sound.]

Big Sissy! Are you hurt?

[Okay, trying to move out of Ikki's lap to hurry towards Nephenee.]
