Almost done with drafts. Making food before getting back to the rest of them~

He went to respond to Wylie when the dragon tugged on his fingers, causing Verv's attention to snap back to the tiny creature and sigh. "Hey, you little terror, I'm gonna need my hand so I can eat. I can get you some actual bedding if you can wait 2 minutes?"

It seemed like the dragon understood him enough beforehand, so he was treating it like it did just posses that level of intelligence. He had no idea if it did or not, but he'd feel worse if he underestimated the little critter.

"We haven't done laundry yet this week, have we? I think he'd do better with some shirts that smell like us."

"Okay, that a good idea," Wylie nodded, wondering if Cord might have a book or something that might help them out, since he knew that there was a sizeable collection of old tomes and such in their office, containing all sorts of knowledge on magic and nonhumans.

All the nuzzling Chalupa had been doing against Verv's hand had started to lull the tiny dragon into a very relaxed state, along with his full belly, and he was getting sleepy.

He let out a big yawn and grabbed onto Verv's fingers, trying to position his hand to make a pillow out of it so he could get comfortable and take a nap.

"So either don't tell him or just give the cookies to Nerissa? I've heard rumor that she's got quite the sweet tooth," she remarked with a shrug. It wouldn't do him any good to try to butter Cayden up, but it might make it easier to talk to Nerissa if he didn't push on Cay for Dimitri. Nothing good could come of that one. "Okay, yeah, that's fair. It takes a lot more to push me over an edge like that because I've dealt with it for so long. I'm also decently older than the three of them, so that helps too." Not only that but she had grown up with Chance as a stable influence in her life and it often showed in some less favorable ways, but, as far as she was concerned, his teaching her how to compartmentalize had been a great thing. The therapist she had had in her teens had not seemed to agree with that sentiment.

"Oh, I know." Izzy couldn't help but to laugh as she did. It was infectious and he liked this part of friendship. The part where he could just be himself and they could laugh over stupid things. It was definitely a most necessary part of being. "Yeah but Dimitri likes to use me as a conduit of his well meaning. He's trying the whole subtle approach thing but if he knows I'm over there he'll send me with cookies or something." It was still worth talking to Nerissa, he knew that, but Izzy was constantly putting things like that off. He didn't want to be a burden, even if no one thought he was. What Genesis was saying made sense even in her quirky way of saying it. "Maybe not. But there's got to be some normal experiences I can have, right? Like I want the boy I like to kiss me whenever he wants and I want to hang out with him and my friends and not be afraid to fall asleep. Like even asking you to watch movies and hang out - I'm gonna fall asleep, it's going to happen. I know I can't help what I am. I don't know what I'll bring up, if anything. But you've had more time to deal with your pain than Dre or Finn or even Reed."

ok but i think this munday should be about loving yourself so fun fact is that ive really come to love how i write romantic / shippy things lately.

[i-still-mask-because]

I still mask because... The idea of food tasting disgusting and like death and shit would actually destroy me. Food is one of the primary pleasures of my existence, and the idea of having to eat ANYWAY everyday, forcing myself to eat foul-tasting food even though it's disgusting is anathema to my personal happiness. I know other people don't enjoy food already, it's not a big deal to them whether food tastes good, but the idea is awful to me.

Adair gave a curt nod at that, choosing not to press further. For now, at least. Later was a different story. He paused, considering Danny's question for a moment. He hadn't really told the other much about his family and there were reasons for that. "Legally, I have a sister. We are not close."

"Doesn't hurt. Doesn't help as much as you might think." Human was definitely, definitely more of a cause for concern. But he hadn't exactly had the best of luck with non-humans. The fact that he had a clone walking around in the world could attest to that, not that he'd trade her for anything. "...do you have siblings?"

"I don't think I've been quiet a day in my life," she confessed with a wink. Bells could be quiet. Hell, she could be silent enough that no one in her home could hear her, but that was more of a work thing than a her thing. "See? Giving more points to my argument that this is exactly where you were meant to end up." And, apparently, not just for his own sake. It was nice to see Finn bonding with someone but especially with someone as seemingly sweet as Reed was. It gave Bells a sense of hope for both boys.

Hearing that he didn't feel like a stranger for the first time in his life made Bells's heart feel warm. "You deserve to feel like you belong somewhere, Reed. Even if it takes some time, I hope you get to that point with all of us."

"I was a quiet kid." Reed confessed. Certainly no trouble maker as it would have caused more problems for him than not. Nobody liked the kids who acted out. If you were quiet and snuck under the radar things often went more smoothly. Not every home Reed had been in was bad but would insist that his method of survival was good for both ends of the spectrum. Make yourself small, take up little space, don't act out. "That actually makes me feel better. I think without him today I would have fallen apart very quickly. Or maybe gotten nowhere at all." They had certainly bonded in that very short time, there was no denying it. "It feels like he's going to be someone important." That was admitted a little shyly but he couldn't deny it.

"Maybe. I don't really know what my finish line is but I think I'm going the right direction. Even if it's terrifying and I feel like I'm all over the place. I know I don't feel like a stranger around the few people I've met... and I've felt like a stranger my whole life. So that's... incredibly new."

"Even if. The custody agreement between your mother and I ended when you turned 18. There is no legal or medical documentation that states you cannot choose which household you reside in. If all of your documents say you need supervision, that's fine. I am more than capable of taking that on and if they try to pull shit about him being your therapist, I can put in for what, conflict of interest? Legally, he can't be your therapist since he's married to your mother now. Won't be hard for me to find someone else and get a second opinion on everything he's put down."

The last few points was something Thras had been trying to get straightened out before all of this came to light and now? Well, now he had more reason to push for it on top of the resources and money necessary to drag it out in court if he needed to. "Besides, I know my lawyer's better than any they can afford."

"Even if they tell the cops I'm crazy?" Daniel asked, knowing that would be exactly the kind of tactics that would be used against him, and unfortunately, his stepfather had manufactured more than enough evidence to back up that claim and discredit Daniel.

It didn't help that Daniel had also had a few run-ins with the law outside of attempts to run away that probably didn't look good and wouldn't work in his favour, but he trusted Thras and knew that his dad's family would protect him once Thrasos had gotten everything set up to do so.

Now I wanna know more about Elis father....

ok at least it's better you ask for their father than their mother

i already described his physiology a little bit in here, and a little extra on the tags like i always do bc i can't shut up when talking alone. I can't say everything about him bc i forget but I'll give what i can remember or feel like explaining

He's wise in words but not in actions, since he doesn't go by human rules. (i hope you undestand what im trying to say bc i don't feel like explainin it in detail, but to resume a part of it, he doesn't understand what he did/is doing wrong morally speaking, or maybe he doesn't care? who knows. me not)

Knows human language (after centuries of observation with trial and error) but when communicating with his offsprings (? he does it through sound inside their minds that they somehow understand. He was absent through the majority of Eli's childhood, but it's not like he could have done anything more, since he can't stay long periods of time too close to people. (the distress and madness™ but not so much by looking since he is invisible, is more with breathing him, it's wet and warm its gross hehehehe) <- that doesn't affect their offsprings tho!

He went to Corland Bay because the air was cleaner near the sea, he's not there anymore. If he ever came back (which i don't believe it will happen? there is not reason for him to want to go back there? for now?) Eli would already be able to sense him from kilometers away.

He was... exiled? from his kind. The hivemind. There was a difference in his desires from the rest of them (why did this happen? well achtually ☝💥💥💥ARGH). So now he isn't allowed into the sea even if he comes from the deep. He didn't have a choice in this. (which is why he gives Eli a choice when 💥💥💥💥STKOHOPTRHOWING MEBOMBS)

I already said in some tags that he can manipulate a human disguise but it's never the same and almost looks like a mirage? ok so. as for how he looks without taking into account he is invisible: he doesn't look remotely human, he isn't handsome, monsterfuckers get away from him ( <- im one u_u) As for the human disguise, he uses real humans, but when he controls them for a long time they turn into 'air', making the vision not clear.

There is a balance in the universe (but this affects earth's balance specially) and his actions are breaking it, but he believes that after a lot of breaking, it could go back to normal, that way creating a place for himself in earth. He has an almost primal desire towards this goal. (i won't explain more for now sory)

Eli doesn't know anything about his father in terms of origin, just some bits of personality from few interactions, but they don't trust their father even if their relationship is a bit better than with their mother (which is not much, still bad). Eli's moral view goes against his fathers actions, so they also don't like him, but it's a complicated feeling. It's just that they interacted so little because of him being absent most of the time, so those little good interactions were all Eli had to having a parent figure, aside from their mothejhhmmhfhmm-

That made sense based on what little Britt knew about Reed so far. She couldn't imagine the shock that came with all of this and trying to navigate it all. "He is genuine. He was always one of my favorite people when I was younger. But, if you're struggling with the idea of crashing with him, I know Bells would be happy to have you stay with her. She's made mention of it in passing." More than once, really, but Britt didn't want to make the kid feel any kind of pressure. "So I've seen. Especially when it comes to kids that aren't human." There were enough people in the family who adopted kids for her to have heard some pretty awful horror stories. She smiled at the question, the warmth of it making her eyes seem brighter. "I married someone like that."

Reed nodded, understanding that the situation was complicated. What mattered most, though, was that everyone seemed to trust him despite the fact that he'd once been simply a human. "I've been considering his offer I just sometimes don't know who to trust. He seems genuine. It helps that everyone I mention him to never seems to have anything bad to say." The fact that he was Reed's family wasn't enough. He'd had enough stand in families to know that it didn't always matter. "Poked, prodded, slapped, shoved around... not all homes are good homes." It was no secret. Reed had been vocal about the range of treatment he'd experienced in different foster homes since the very last one he was in. "Yeah? I just feel like I can breathe when I'm with him. You ever meet someone like that?"

if an artist says their turnaround time is usually a week and that they should be done with your specific commission by the end of the week, then goes nearly three weeks without saying something, is it OK to ask them for an update on your commission? I'm a bit torn on whether I should wait a whole month
