For the official baby shower Glenn and Silver attempted to host the whole coven. Glenn was a bit worried about what so many people in once place might do to Silver but the werewolf assured him it was best they host. That way he could always duck into the bedroom for a minute of peace and any grumpiness would just be seen as him having high standards as a host.

Elise: Glenn! You look great. You're glowing like one of my moonlight charged gems

Glenn: Oh thanks I-

Jackson: Marisol is angry she couldn't bring Sandy

Marisol: Hush Jackson, I didn't say that

Jackson: She said she misses her dog so it's basically the same

Elise: Do you not miss Throttle

Jackson: Not right this second, my dog can take care of himself. Plus he has Thrash for company

Elise: Luckily BooBoo doesn't need company, he's a very self confident cat

Koko: Glenn, I have a baby shower gift for you

Glenn: You do? You really like gift wrapping huh

Koko: It gives me something to do. Will you open it now?

Henri: What are we talking about all the way out here? The dangers of crowds?

Howard: *laughing* Oh I think we all know the dangers of crowds

Silver: I mean... I'm doing better with them than I was a year ago right?

Henri: Oui, indeed

Silver: Thank you for bringing the snacks Henri. They're not uh... you know?

Henri: Laced with pleasure? Everything I bake is, but just low doses for everyday bakes

Silver: But... could that hurt the kid

Henri: Kids are stronger than you think Silver. Surely you saw your fair share of werewolf cub fights, no?

Silver: Oh the battles between the young ones were ferocious but they couldn't get seriously hurt, werewolves can't

Howard: I do find it fascinating how impervious your kind is to damage

Henri: Your kid is bound to be just the same, even if they're a spellcaster

Silver: I hope so. Losing parents was hard enough, I can't imagine losing a kid- sorry Howard

Howard: *soft smile* I'll see my boy again when my time is through

Glenn was doing the rounds when he noticed Ophelia standing in the corner, staring at the treefish in the tank.

Glenn: You alright there Ophelia

Ophelia: Me? Yes. I was just wondering what it must be like for Oakley

Glenn: What do you mean

Ophelia: He's a proud only child. How can he comprehend a new sibling coming in to his world?

Glenn: Uhhhh, you think he has that much awareness?

Ophelia: Oh I've no idea. But I think he looks like he's getting ready

Glenn: Right... why don't we sit down for a bit Ophelia

Ophelia: Of course. I was just waiting for you to suggest that

So the pair sat down at the table beside Gillian and began to snack.

Glenn: I don't suppose you can tell me if I'm growing a baby boy or baby girl

Ophelia: I can't. They haven't decided yet

Glenn: They haven't decided yet?

Ophelia: Gender is a social construct anyway but their body hasn't decided which sex they most want to be like. It's as if their inner boy and girl are playing tic tac toe for it, like their inner spellcaster and werewolf are

Glenn: Wait, are you saying they'll be both genders and both occults

Ophelia: I can't give you hints about the future Glenn, you know this

Phoebus: How are you coping Silver

Silver: Better. I wanted to apologise for my behaviour in your house right after we learned Glenn was pregnant

Phoebus: Silver, I may not know what it's like to have been alone as long as you were but I can understand that unlearning behaviour takes time. Now here, I got Drusilla to help me with this

Silver: What is it? Is it- wait... how?

Phoebus: Drusilla does blood magic. From the blood sample of your child she was able to work backwards along the family lines. Does it look right?

Silver: *happily* The sketch looks exactly like my mom looked. Thank you. Thank you so much

Phoebus: You're very welcome. Oh no need to hide your tears from me Silver, they're a sign of love

Glenn knocked and the door was quickly answered by a pastel wearing spellcaster.

Elise: Hey, Glenn right?

Glenn: What gave it away

Elise: Apart from the fact that the property is shielded to stop trespassers, absolutely nothing. Did you want Marisol? She's down by the river

Glenn: Oh no I was looking for you actually

Elise ushered him in and Glenn took a moment to look around the room. Was that a clay llama in the display cabinet? Well okay then...

Glenn: Nice collection

Elise: I like to display some of the nicer ones rather than just use them up

Glenn: Harmony said you liked gems

Elise: It's more than simply liking them, they're my area of focus

Glenn: There's enough variety for you to do that?

Elise: They may not be as obviously varied as plants but yes, there's plenty of difference in them

Glenn: Harmony said you could give me some helpful pointers

Elise: Because you're trying to shape gems?

Glenn: I guess last night I tried

Elise: Not as easy as it seems huh? You've still got jade dust on your sleeve

Glenn: Oh, I swore I shook it out

Elise: *smiles* Gems can have a mind of their own

Glenn: Are there any I should try and find

Elise: It depends if you want them for decoration or charging

Glenn: Charging?

Elise: Koko and I have been working on stands that will funnel moonlight in to cut gems

Glenn: That sounds... pretty?

Elise: It's more than pretty, it's useful. They can be used for many benefits

Glenn: Such as?

Elise: Charged jet allows you to contact the Grim Reaper directly, and having it around will mean he has to grant your plea to spare a life

Glenn: Wait- I thought you'd be talking about like, happy moods

Elise: Well charged amber can make you happy and brings the sun around

Glenn: They can control the sun???

Elise: Everyone always underestimates pretty sparkly things

Glenn: So which ones would be useful? For like everyday

Elise: Hmm... I'd say try find an amethyst. That'll be inspiring and means you don't need to sleep as long to be refreshed

Glenn: That'd be useful

Elise: Oh for sure, it's the next best thing to creating new hours in the day

Elise: Then, umm... sapphire makes it easier to focus on upskilling. It stops you getting burnt out, but if you're more in to creative stuff I'd say look for an orange topaz

Glenn: There's different colours of topaz? I thought they were all yellow

Elise: Misconception. There are many different shades of colour for that gem but orange ones are the only ones I've tested. If you want to focus on your magic I'd say search for some moonstone

Glenn: What does that do

Elise: Stops your basic spells failing unless you're overcharged

Glenn: Well thanks, I'll scout about for those

Elise: If you find any you're not sure of come see me, I may have already figured out their properties. Oh hi baby

Glenn looked down to see a very white cat had just let themselves in.

Elise: This is BooBoo. He's my familiar

Glenn: Oh he is very handsome

Elise: He's got a mind of his own don't ya baby

BooBoo: *meows*

Some brief Elise history and download link below.

Elise comes from a family of miners who made their fortune pulling minerals from the earth. When the line they were working on ran out the family had to move and adapt, after all they were spellcasters and faced the prejudice that came with it. Elise begun to study the minerals to try and find more than their monetary value.

When she began to theorise that crystals could be used for great power the parliament suggested she join a coven to keep her research out of the hands of those who would use them against occults. Phoebus' coven seemed the most appealing and she and Koko have created a way for crystals to maintain moonlight for a couple of days, allowing the gems to be used for many things.
