Keela: She eyed the landscape as they walked, looking awed. "Did your mum do all of this by herself?" She looks around slowly, taking it all in. "This is incredible." She'd seen parts of it Christmas day with the rest of the family, but a good deal was new.
8 Dec 13, 05:58 PM
[×] Vin: Vincent nodded, keeping his arm for his bride now holding on to it as she spoke. "I know, right? It's not crazy at all inside. I felt her forehead and she punched me on the arm. You'd think this was a special holiday or something
8 Dec 13, 06:00 PM
Keela: She grins, "it is, she's that much closer to grandchildren now isn't she?" teasing softly, "Though maybe not just yet" she wanted to enjoy being married to him for a bit before they added children, at least until he was out of school or longer.
8 Dec 13, 06:04 PM
[×] Vin: Laughs as they get near the first fireplace. "Oh come on, Mova, you know that will distract her attention more then anything else we could do. it's like the best babysitter ever she will be so careful" he grinned at her, enjoying the reaction.g." 8 Dec 13, 06:07 PM
Keela: She sighs, leaning close to him for a moment. "I know, but is it wrong to want a little more time to practice before then?" Though she suspected Lindsey would be more than happy to babysit any time. Her mother had jokingly lamented being made a grandmother in her thirties, but both she and dad laughed at the idea.
8 Dec 13, 06:08 PM
[×] Vin: Vin smiled and kissed her cheek. "Of course not, we just need a time turner i think to get in everything we'd like to do." He smiled to himself, knowing more about their trip tomorrow then she had any inkling and proud of that fact. "Man, this family just swells bigger and bigger. Soon we are going to need a stadium for reunions."
8 Dec 13, 06:17 PM
Keela: She nodded, "a time turner would be good, maybe you could build one" she gave him a mischievous look. He did like to work with mechanics after all. "Maybe a bike that worked like one?" She laughed, "truth, though if you think we're having thirteen kids Vin, I have bad news for you."
8 Dec 13, 06:21 PM
[×] Vin: The thought of making a time turner nearly made him miss a step. "Jeeze! Aiming me pretty high, huh? That would be-- I wouldn't even know where to begin with that one!" He poked her side with a finger not hard and then laughed at the number. "Well while we will have the space I don't think that number has ever occurred to me. Seriously. You know why mom went that fa-- Is passing that number."
8 Dec 13, 06:24 PM
Keela: She shrugged, "You could do anything you wanted to, Caro Mia, I've always known that."She flinched when he poked her, swatting at him. "Hey! No picking on the new wife!" She nods, sobering slightly and her voice softens. "When we...will it work for her?"
8 Dec 13, 06:29 PM
[×] Vin: "Oh really?" Slips his arm around her tighter, takes her hand. "I have no idea, non of us do, but I have something else on my mind right now" Gives her a twirl raising one hand above her head so the dress shows off then as she comes back around he kisses her to general applause. Softly says "Okay maybe two things," grins.
8 Dec 13, 06:32 PM
Keela: She had, for the moment, forgotten they had an audience. "Oh right, playing hostess." She kissed him back, and blushed when the applause registered. "Show off" she murmured next to his ear as she pulled away smiling.
8 Dec 13, 06:37 PM
[×] Vin: Knowing he had pleased her he grinned back and let her pull away, but held her hand. he didn't have to worry anymore as she was wearing the ring, but it felt good to hold her hand knowing she was his completely now. he greeted a few people and said thanks to a few as they moved in farther, seeing a lot of familiar faces
8 Dec 13, 06:51 PM
Keela S: She shook her head, but leaned up to kiss him softly again. She smiled politely, making small-talk with the various well-wishes as they passed. She kept her hand firmly in Vin's, distracted by thoughts of the honeymoon to come.
8 Dec 13, 06:57 PM
Vin: As they got to the table, he poured a pair of stripped punches (orange cranberry) and ofered her one and talking o his father for just a moment near the main room.
8 Dec 13, 07:03 PM
Keela S: She accepted the glass and scanned the room. "Have you seen your mum?"
8 Dec 13, 07:05 PM
Vin: Nods "main room, just look for the hair. Dad says everything is going fine, no issues with food and we isolated grandfather."
8 Dec 13, 07:22 PM
Keela S: She glanced down at the Silver family ring on her right hand and flinched. "Good" She leaned up and kissed his cheek, "be right back." She reached the main room and found her mother in law easily enough. "Hi mom"
8 Dec 13, 07:31 PM
[×] Vin: "I know, right? I almost hate to introduce you later. Okay darling!" Watches her walk off with a smile, but is quickly surrounded by family wanting to talk. Lindsey was drinking wine from a glass, a little irritated her husband had made her stop carrying around a stein of it. "Hey sugar, what's up? Happy? Content? Ready for later?" She barely withheld a cackle
8 Dec 13, 07:58 PM
[×] Vin: Lin grinned. "Not so much. Osiris helped him plan it as a secret surprise, all i know is it's a long flight. AND YOU HAD BETTER MAKE PICTURES" she said raising her voice and winking.
8 Dec 13, 08:05 PM
Keela S: She makes a disappointed face, sighing, she smiles again. It wouldn't be long now anyway. She leaned down and hugged Lindsey. "Everything looks fantastic, thank you so much!" She pulled back and straightened. "I guess I should go face the music now." She made a face as she headed back to the greenhouse. She crossed the room to Vin. "Thank Merlin for your mum."
8 Dec 13, 08:10 PM
Vin: Hugs back "No problem, darling, welcome to the family!" "Music? I think we will have some later, but not much dance space. have fun!"
8 Dec 13, 08:25 PM
Keela S: She took Vin's arm as she slid into her place next to him. "Having fun, Caro Mio?"
8 Dec 13, 08:26 PM
[×] Vin: slides his hand around her waist. "Am I not with you? Of course I am! I like showing off this beautiful wife I have, have you seen her?" Grins
8 Dec 13, 09:15 PM
Keela S: She laughs, and leans in "so how long until we join the mile high club again?"
8 Dec 13, 09:19 PM
[×] Vin: Laughs. "I think I could see it happening quite soon, actually. But not tonight I think." Sees purple hair through the greenhouse glass. "Heh, poor Darius. Already leaving, must have been too much for him. Wish I knew how to get him to not be so shy..."
8 Dec 13, 11:03 PM
Keela: She laughs, "Just teasing, love, mostly anyway." She follows his gaze, and her eyes widen as she notices something he didn't. "Look again love, Brier's with him."
8 Dec 13, 11:05 PM
[×] Vin: "Well, we'll see, it is true you might be too tired..." Glances back. "Oh gotcha, must be playing tour guide. Mom told him Seth and Anne to take care of your siblings. She must of had a request."
8 Dec 13, 11:11 PM
Keela: She glances back at the pair of them as they disappear. "I wonder what he's showing her." She looks thoughtful, "how much of the house can he see?" She'd probably never know how much of it there actually was.
8 Dec 13, 11:13 PM
[×] Vin: Smiles and says "Well, how much did you tell her about it? Could she be thinking treasures, ghosts, magic rooms moving around, or what? Because to ask she'd have to be curious about something, right?" Thinks about it a minute. "Hmm, maybe about half what I used to. The kids younger then him even less. So maybe...twenty rooms tops? He hasn't discovered my wardrobe yet either."
8 Dec 13, 11:15 PM
Keela: She gives it some thought. "She seemed really interested in the ghosts, maybe that was it, though treasures...she'd probably be interested in those too." She arches an eyebrow, "I shouldn't be worried about them should I?"
8 Dec 13, 11:19 PM
[×] Vin: Nods, seems to think that is all there is to it. "Oh ghosts, probably showing her Abraham. Only mom can see the basic treasures, though she probably let dad i on those too, If there is anything actually valuable like the ring, only I can find those." Smiles softly, holding her hand up to kiss the back of it. Gives her an odd look. "Honey, think for a moment. Darius. Quiet in the corner rarely speaks to most people Darius. I seriously doubt he would know where to begin actually."
8 Dec 13, 11:23 PM
Keela: She grins, "She'll like Abraham I think. She'll probably get a kick out of being Ms. Summerby." She shakes her head, "oh I know, but I have to be careful, she's gotten into one of the Jimenez triplets lately and I worry about her."
8 Dec 13, 11:27 PM
[×] Vin: Laughs at the Ms Summerby part. "I do remember you liked that too." Then suddenly interested. "Wait, she's been dating another boy so you worry now about keeping an eye on her around--" Stops, then grins. "I wouldn't object at all if she woke him up actually!"
8 Dec 13, 11:48 PM
Keela: ((OH my GOODNESS YAY)) She rolls her eyes. "I'm glad I got him to settle on Miss Keela" She had a long time to work on getting rid of the 'Miss, though Mrs Silver-Moon wouldn't get old any time soon.. She shakes her head at him, "I'm actually less worried about Darius waking up if you can believe it. She'd be safer with him."
8 Dec 13, 11:50 PM
Vin: gets handed a plate and told where to sit down by one of his family and he laughs and takes a seat before responding, watching her get the same treatment admist comments like "You need your energy dearie!" and other such. Laughs at it all. "Is the other kid that bad? oh wait, that's one of the triplets, fifth years I think right? What makes them so dangerous to your mind?"
8 Dec 13, 11:52 PM
Keela: She sits, trying to be good-natured about the ribbing. "He's slept with...like...everyone, and before you remind me you had a reputation too let me point out I know this for a fact, his own brothers admit it." She looks irritated. "The guy's a player, and Brier's never had a real boyfriend before."
9 Dec 13, 12:39 AM
Darius: "Ah." Now Vin looked serious. "I'll keep an eye out for the last half year. So you think he's trying to get her under his thumb?"
9 Dec 13, 12:56 AM
Keela: She shook her head, "I don't think so, he doesn't date really. I'm afraid the more she resists him the more..." She sighed, realizing how much it sounded like her original line of thinking. "You get the idea I think."
9 Dec 13, 01:00 AM
[×] Vin: Looks a bit worried now. "That does not sound good. okay, I'll defintely be checking in on that. Want to talk to her before we leave tonight?" Sure, they were going to be getting up early and taking off, but surely this evening they could catch her.
9 Dec 13, 01:09 AM
Keela: She nods, "and maybe you should talk to Darius, I know you guys are close, and I can't imagine he's happy about you leaving." Se bit her lip, feeling slightly guilty.
9 Dec 13, 01:14 AM
Vin: Sighs "Yeah, I don't know how to deal with that yet. Maybe after the honeymoon. Right now, I need to keep my mind positive." Someone else came over and hugged them both, they did the small talk thing and then as soon as she left he said "And don't you start feeling guilty, I would have been gone this summer anyway."
9 Dec 13, 01:15 AM
Keela: She nods, "right, positive." Then sighs when she knows she's caught. "I can't help it really. I know he's got the others but, all I keep thinking about is that first day with him on the train..."
9 Dec 13, 01:19 AM
[×] Vin: Nods, shakes his head. "I know, I'm his bog bro. No one else spends as much time with him as I do. trust me, I think about it all the time."
9 Dec 13, 01:21 AM
Keela: She nods toward the direction where Darius and Brier disappeared. "Maybe they'll be good for each other. I think Brier may have a bit of a crush on him anyway."
9 Dec 13, 01:22 AM
[×] Vin: Startled look, eats a bite off the plate, thoughtfully. "A crush on him? Hmm. Because he's quiet and withdrawn?"
9 Dec 13, 01:27 AM
Keela: She shook her head. "She wrote a few weeks ago that he was helping her with potions and that he was cute." She smiles softly to herself, "said something about trading recipes and showing him the house in the RoR." She smirked at him, "sound familiar, love?"
9 Dec 13, 01:30 AM
[×] Vin: Now looks at her with a wide eyed look. Excuse me, did she say who offered, him or her? Cause I have a hard time fitting this into my mind. He's helping her with potions. Different." Laughs. "Dear heart, I don't think I've ever traded recipies with you, but the ROr has some pretty wonderful memories I admit..."
9 Dec 13, 01:34 AM
Keela: She's surprised by his reaction. "She showed him the RoR, I think because she thought he might need a space to relax by himself." She shrugs, "I think it happened then." She grins at him, "we always did get distracted when we tried to cook, yes."
9 Dec 13, 09:33 AM
Vin: So this was sounding more serious then he would have at first thought. He had no problems with someone liking his brother, in fact he hoped it really did wake Darius up to real life, but he was concerned about what reaction Darius might have, especially if things went wrong later on. "Darius is more the cook in our family. I don't think even mom shows a third as much of an interest. It's both heartening that our family trusts each other so much and that he protects and loves us so much that we have never given it a second thought. He learned most of the dishes from both dad and mom's backgrounds. You've seen her feeding everyone like dogs to the trough, well Darius makes each dish very carefully, following all the correct preparations, getting it just right." 'And that is part of what i think an outsider would be scared of actually.' "It's why he does so well with potions, the exact list of what has to be followed to a t. As well as other things." He didn't explain that part,
9 Dec 13, 09:35 AM
[×] Vin: but it was clear he wasn't saying everything either. "I've always tried to help him along because I see something going wrong with him if someone doesn't take an interest in his welfare. He has some pretty strong issues which keep him separate from most people. Maybe he will see her as safe enough to trust. How would she respond to being absolutely trusted, Keela? That might be the real thing to think about here."
9 Dec 13, 12:34 PM
Vin: Thinks abut that a minute. "he's better then good. He's been doing special assignments for three years now with the Professor. So then yes, I can see her being interested in him." He debated a minute before adding more. "Now is not a good time for this conversation Mova..."
9 Dec 13, 12:39 PM
Keela: She nodded, glancing around at their audience, she laid her head on his shoulder and sighed before pulling back and smiling. "You're right, we could change it. Like, you could tell me where we're going for example..."
9 Dec 13, 12:42 PM
[×] Vin: Picking up a tidbit (some meat wrapped in cheese thing) and giving her a look with rolled eyes, put it in her mouth instead of his own. "I am not giving up the best kept secret I've ever had so no, sorry. You did pack more then one bathing suit right? and a long flight, that's all you get to hear for now." He grinned.
9 Dec 13, 12:45 PM
Keela: She gave him a look as she chewed, then swallowed hard. "Same thing your mother said" she mumbled, "and yes, I have three." She looked as though she was very close to pouting at him. "You're no fun."
9 Dec 13, 12:50 PM
[×] Vin: Nods. "Mom knows nothing but she is curious. I'm sure she will have it out of dad by the time we get in the air." Smirks then shakes his head. "I am, on the contrary, quite a lot of fun actually, you just don't like secrets. And it's the one part of the wedding the groom is expected to take care of and you want me to give away my part" he popped some food in his mouth and shook his head at her amused.
9 Dec 13, 12:53 PM
Keela: She manages to grin in spite of her disappointment. "That, I think, is the true miracle." How did anyone keep anything from his mum? She nods, "I actually have a few secrets I think you're going to like when we get to wherever it is we're going." Gifts, stashed away from a surprisingly entertaining bachelorette party.
9 Dec 13, 12:57 PM
[×] Vin: He nodded. "I had to appeal to dad for standing by me in my hour of need. Guys need to stick together at times like these." Winks and laughs drinks some punch. "Eat, Keela, please." Eyebrows go up at the mysterious answer. "Oh my! That sounds embarrassing for airport security."
9 Dec 13, 01:00 PM
Keela: She arches an eyebrow at him, but willingly takes a bite out of another sandwich. They were good after all. She frowns, she hadn't thought of airport security, but then she shrugged. "I'm pretty sure they've probably seen worse, Caro Mio."
9 Dec 13, 01:03 PM
Vin: Snorts and nods, imagining people like that saw a lot of oddities. "Do we really have to speak to every single person here? Or can we fake a half-sincere wave and escape early?" knowing the answer
9 Dec 13, 01:08 PM
Keela: She glances around, hesitates. "Well, your mum did go through a lot of trouble..." She seems torn, not wanting to skip out on everything for her families' sakes but desperately wanting to put some space between them and the chaos.
9 Dec 13, 01:13 PM
[×] Vin: Sighs. " I was afraid you might put it that way, we're stuck for it then. Okay well finish off your food, dear" he imitated an old woman's voice "Cause you'll be needing it dearie!" and then laughed, putting the last two bites of his in and drinking down the punch. "We need to be on display a bit longer. Separate or together?"
9 Dec 13, 01:22 PM
Keela: She grinned cheekily at him. She obligingly finished off her sand which, almost choking when she laughed at his comment. "I'm sure" she said simply. Glancing around at all of the people, only a few of which she recognized, she didn't hesitate. "Together."
9 Dec 13, 01:26 PM
Vin: Slipping his hand in hers, they went to do the greetings, walking through and speaking to nearly everyone, thanking everyone for coming and such. They were near the end when Char came and whispered to Vin "Put them on your bed. You might be finished unwrapping them in a month" and hugged them both before it seemed a good time to be off. Waving to his father Vin motioned they were going and got back the high sign.
9 Dec 13, 01:29 PM
Keela: She would never remember everyone in this sea of faces. She needed a pensieve. She hugged Char and at least a dozen other people as they headed for the door. When they were safely out of the greenhouse, she turned to Vin. "What did Char say?" She wasn't sure she wanted to know, but she was curious nonetheless.
9 Dec 13, 01:31 PM
[×] Vin: Waving bye behind him "She put all the presents on my bed, crafty bugger, as a joke cause we have to remove them all. Said it would take us a month to unwrap them all." Chuckled as they headed for the front doors.
9 Dec 13, 01:37 PM
Keela: She grinned, "or we could just stash them all in the closet until further notice" she pointed out. She gave him a mischievous look, "how close is my family staying to your bedroom?"
9 Dec 13, 01:42 PM
[×] Vin: "Um" pauses wondering himself. "I don't know actually, but it won't matter. Since I'm the Moon of the house I simply will ask Abraham to hide the room from others till the morning." Sly grin
9 Dec 13, 01:45 PM
Keela: She laughed, "have I mentioned recently how much I love that ghost?"She looked thoughtful for a moment, "so does my access change now, or is the same as before?" She'd probably spend the majority of her life asking Abraham to rearrange rooms for her, but it didn't hurt to ask.
9 Dec 13, 01:48 PM
[×] Vin: Smiled "He is pretty fantastic I admit, what boring houses most people have. Their rooms are always the same." Grins "Keela now, remember, I did say you had the same access I had, remember? I trust you with everything, including my heart." stops her and kisses her on the front stoop
9 Dec 13, 01:53 PM
Keela: She nodded, remembering that conversation suddenly. "Maybe I should have gotten Abraham to give me the tour" she shook her head. She kissed him back, smiling softly up at him. "Shall we, love?"
9 Dec 13, 04:52 PM
Vin: Laughs 'We'll have plenty of time for a tour when we get back. Right now I have other things entirely on my mind and they have nothing to do with the house." Bends and scoops her up in his arms, holding her and kicking the door open. "The Master returns!" he said loudly walking in to the front hall as Abraham slowly materializes. "Abraham! My room please." The door appeared in front of them and he snorted and said "The door, man, can't you see I'm occupied?" And the door opened to which Vin walked in with a big grin saying "Thank you Abraham! Good job! See to it no one can reach us till the morning!"
9 Dec 13, 05:43 PM
Keela S: Though she had half-expected what came next, she still laughed when he swept her up. She gave Abraham an apologetic look as they passed. An entire night just the two of them with no possibility for interruptions? She grinned, "so, can I consider this a wedding present?"
9 Dec 13, 07:46 PM
Vin: Ginning at her question he nodded. "Consider it a personal one, love, but it is traditional for the husband to carry the bride across the threshhold, I just shortened the distance to the end and-- Merlin!" he stopped inside the door as it closed behind him looking at packages stacked six high on top of and overflowing two sides of the bed.
9 Dec 13, 08:31 PM
Keela: She gave him a look. "What?" She followed his gaze and her own widened. "Wow...we have some...generous relatives don't we?" She shakes her head, "so much for putting it all in the closet."
9 Dec 13, 08:33 PM
[×] Vin: Stands there holding her, then hesitates. Smiles wider. "Oh. maybe another closet then that one." Eyes go over to the wardrobe." Nods.
9 Dec 13, 08:33 PM
Vin: Stands there holding her, then hesitates. Smiles wider. "Oh. maybe another closet then that one." Eyes go over to the wardrobe." Nods.
9 Dec 13, 08:42 PM
Keela: She smirks, "or maybe we could leave it all out here and stash ourselves in the closet" she points out with a mischievous look
9 Dec 13, 08:45 PM
Vin: Nods. "We could, just remember this bed is twice as big as the other. So if you don't mind tight fits we can continue." Chuckles. "Or maybe if you like them more so..."
9 Dec 13, 09:01 PM
Keela: She shook her head at him. "Whichever works, I wouldn't mind putting this" she motions to the pile, "off for a few hours."
9 Dec 13, 09:08 PM
[×] Vin: Carries her over to the wardrobe, waits while she opens the door, then takes then through with the word. Walks back over to the old bed in the back and sets her down on the bed with a smile. "Well well well, what a pretty young woman you are! Can I keep you?"
8 Dec 13, 05:56 PM
Keela: She eyed the landscape as they walked, looking awed. "Did your mum do all of this by herself?" She looks around slowly, taking it all in. "This is incredible." She'd seen parts of it Christmas day with the rest of the family, but a good deal was new.
8 Dec 13, 05:58 PM
[×] Vin: Vincent nodded, keeping his arm for his bride now holding on to it as she spoke. "I know, right? It's not crazy at all inside. I felt her forehead and she punched me on the arm. You'd think this was a special holiday or something
8 Dec 13, 06:00 PM
Keela: She grins, "it is, she's that much closer to grandchildren now isn't she?" teasing softly, "Though maybe not just yet" she wanted to enjoy being married to him for a bit before they added children, at least until he was out of school or longer.
8 Dec 13, 06:04 PM
[×] Vin: Laughs as they get near the first fireplace. "Oh come on, Mova, you know that will distract her attention more then anything else we could do. it's like the best babysitter ever she will be so careful" he grinned at her, enjoying the reaction.g." 8 Dec 13, 06:07 PM
Keela: She sighs, leaning close to him for a moment. "I know, but is it wrong to want a little more time to practice before then?" Though she suspected Lindsey would be more than happy to babysit any time. Her mother had jokingly lamented being made a grandmother in her thirties, but both she and dad laughed at the idea.
8 Dec 13, 06:08 PM
[×] Vin: Vin smiled and kissed her cheek. "Of course not, we just need a time turner i think to get in everything we'd like to do." He smiled to himself, knowing more about their trip tomorrow then she had any inkling and proud of that fact. "Man, this family just swells bigger and bigger. Soon we are going to need a stadium for reunions."
8 Dec 13, 06:17 PM
Keela: She nodded, "a time turner would be good, maybe you could build one" she gave him a mischievous look. He did like to work with mechanics after all. "Maybe a bike that worked like one?" She laughed, "truth, though if you think we're having thirteen kids Vin, I have bad news for you."
8 Dec 13, 06:21 PM
[×] Vin: The thought of making a time turner nearly made him miss a step. "Jeeze! Aiming me pretty high, huh? That would be-- I wouldn't even know where to begin with that one!" He poked her side with a finger not hard and then laughed at the number. "Well while we will have the space I don't think that number has ever occurred to me. Seriously. You know why mom went that fa-- Is passing that number."
8 Dec 13, 06:24 PM
Keela: She shrugged, "You could do anything you wanted to, Caro Mia, I've always known that."She flinched when he poked her, swatting at him. "Hey! No picking on the new wife!" She nods, sobering slightly and her voice softens. "When we...will it work for her?"
8 Dec 13, 06:29 PM
[×] Vin: "Oh really?" Slips his arm around her tighter, takes her hand. "I have no idea, non of us do, but I have something else on my mind right now" Gives her a twirl raising one hand above her head so the dress shows off then as she comes back around he kisses her to general applause. Softly says "Okay maybe two things," grins.
8 Dec 13, 06:32 PM
Keela: She had, for the moment, forgotten they had an audience. "Oh right, playing hostess." She kissed him back, and blushed when the applause registered. "Show off" she murmured next to his ear as she pulled away smiling.
8 Dec 13, 06:37 PM
[×] Vin: Knowing he had pleased her he grinned back and let her pull away, but held her hand. he didn't have to worry anymore as she was wearing the ring, but it felt good to hold her hand knowing she was his completely now. he greeted a few people and said thanks to a few as they moved in farther, seeing a lot of familiar faces
8 Dec 13, 06:51 PM
Keela S: She shook her head, but leaned up to kiss him softly again. She smiled politely, making small-talk with the various well-wishes as they passed. She kept her hand firmly in Vin's, distracted by thoughts of the honeymoon to come.
8 Dec 13, 06:57 PM
Vin: As they got to the table, he poured a pair of stripped punches (orange cranberry) and ofered her one and talking o his father for just a moment near the main room.
8 Dec 13, 07:03 PM
Keela S: She accepted the glass and scanned the room. "Have you seen your mum?"
8 Dec 13, 07:05 PM
Vin: Nods "main room, just look for the hair. Dad says everything is going fine, no issues with food and we isolated grandfather."
8 Dec 13, 07:22 PM
Keela S: She glanced down at the Silver family ring on her right hand and flinched. "Good" She leaned up and kissed his cheek, "be right back." She reached the main room and found her mother in law easily enough. "Hi mom"

[×] Vin: "I know, right? I almost hate to introduce you later. Okay darling!" Watches her walk off with a smile, but is quickly surrounded by family wanting to talk. Lindsey was drinking wine from a glass, a little irritated her husband had made her stop carrying around a stein of it. "Hey sugar, what's up? Happy? Content? Ready for later?" She barely withheld a cackle
8 Dec 13, 07:58 PM
[×] Vin: Lin grinned. "Not so much. Osiris helped him plan it as a secret surprise, all i know is it's a long flight. AND YOU HAD BETTER MAKE PICTURES" she said raising her voice and winking.
8 Dec 13, 08:05 PM
Keela S: She makes a disappointed face, sighing, she smiles again. It wouldn't be long now anyway. She leaned down and hugged Lindsey. "Everything looks fantastic, thank you so much!" She pulled back and straightened. "I guess I should go face the music now." She made a face as she headed back to the greenhouse. She crossed the room to Vin. "Thank Merlin for your mum."
8 Dec 13, 08:10 PM
Vin: Hugs back "No problem, darling, welcome to the family!" "Music? I think we will have some later, but not much dance space. have fun!"
8 Dec 13, 08:25 PM
Keela S: She took Vin's arm as she slid into her place next to him. "Having fun, Caro Mio?"
8 Dec 13, 08:26 PM
[×] Vin: slides his hand around her waist. "Am I not with you? Of course I am! I like showing off this beautiful wife I have, have you seen her?" Grins
8 Dec 13, 09:15 PM
Keela S: She laughs, and leans in "so how long until we join the mile high club again?"
8 Dec 13, 09:19 PM
[×] Vin: Laughs. "I think I could see it happening quite soon, actually. But not tonight I think." Sees purple hair through the greenhouse glass. "Heh, poor Darius. Already leaving, must have been too much for him. Wish I knew how to get him to not be so shy..."
8 Dec 13, 11:03 PM
Keela: She laughs, "Just teasing, love, mostly anyway." She follows his gaze, and her eyes widen as she notices something he didn't. "Look again love, Brier's with him."
8 Dec 13, 11:05 PM
[×] Vin: "Well, we'll see, it is true you might be too tired..." Glances back. "Oh gotcha, must be playing tour guide. Mom told him Seth and Anne to take care of your siblings. She must of had a request."
8 Dec 13, 11:11 PM
Keela: She glances back at the pair of them as they disappear. "I wonder what he's showing her." She looks thoughtful, "how much of the house can he see?" She'd probably never know how much of it there actually was.
8 Dec 13, 11:13 PM
[×] Vin: Smiles and says "Well, how much did you tell her about it? Could she be thinking treasures, ghosts, magic rooms moving around, or what? Because to ask she'd have to be curious about something, right?" Thinks about it a minute. "Hmm, maybe about half what I used to. The kids younger then him even less. So maybe...twenty rooms tops? He hasn't discovered my wardrobe yet either."
8 Dec 13, 11:15 PM
Keela: She gives it some thought. "She seemed really interested in the ghosts, maybe that was it, though treasures...she'd probably be interested in those too." She arches an eyebrow, "I shouldn't be worried about them should I?"
8 Dec 13, 11:19 PM
[×] Vin: Nods, seems to think that is all there is to it. "Oh ghosts, probably showing her Abraham. Only mom can see the basic treasures, though she probably let dad i on those too, If there is anything actually valuable like the ring, only I can find those." Smiles softly, holding her hand up to kiss the back of it. Gives her an odd look. "Honey, think for a moment. Darius. Quiet in the corner rarely speaks to most people Darius. I seriously doubt he would know where to begin actually."
8 Dec 13, 11:23 PM
Keela: She grins, "She'll like Abraham I think. She'll probably get a kick out of being Ms. Summerby." She shakes her head, "oh I know, but I have to be careful, she's gotten into one of the Jimenez triplets lately and I worry about her."
8 Dec 13, 11:27 PM
[×] Vin: Laughs at the Ms Summerby part. "I do remember you liked that too." Then suddenly interested. "Wait, she's been dating another boy so you worry now about keeping an eye on her around--" Stops, then grins. "I wouldn't object at all if she woke him up actually!"
8 Dec 13, 11:48 PM
Keela: ((OH my GOODNESS YAY)) She rolls her eyes. "I'm glad I got him to settle on Miss Keela" She had a long time to work on getting rid of the 'Miss, though Mrs Silver-Moon wouldn't get old any time soon.. She shakes her head at him, "I'm actually less worried about Darius waking up if you can believe it. She'd be safer with him."
8 Dec 13, 11:50 PM
Vin: gets handed a plate and told where to sit down by one of his family and he laughs and takes a seat before responding, watching her get the same treatment admist comments like "You need your energy dearie!" and other such. Laughs at it all. "Is the other kid that bad? oh wait, that's one of the triplets, fifth years I think right? What makes them so dangerous to your mind?"
8 Dec 13, 11:52 PM
Keela: She sits, trying to be good-natured about the ribbing. "He's slept with...like...everyone, and before you remind me you had a reputation too let me point out I know this for a fact, his own brothers admit it." She looks irritated. "The guy's a player, and Brier's never had a real boyfriend before."
9 Dec 13, 12:39 AM
Darius: "Ah." Now Vin looked serious. "I'll keep an eye out for the last half year. So you think he's trying to get her under his thumb?"
9 Dec 13, 12:56 AM
Keela: She shook her head, "I don't think so, he doesn't date really. I'm afraid the more she resists him the more..." She sighed, realizing how much it sounded like her original line of thinking. "You get the idea I think."
9 Dec 13, 01:00 AM
[×] Vin: Looks a bit worried now. "That does not sound good. okay, I'll defintely be checking in on that. Want to talk to her before we leave tonight?" Sure, they were going to be getting up early and taking off, but surely this evening they could catch her.
9 Dec 13, 01:09 AM
Keela: She nods, "and maybe you should talk to Darius, I know you guys are close, and I can't imagine he's happy about you leaving." Se bit her lip, feeling slightly guilty.
9 Dec 13, 01:14 AM
Vin: Sighs "Yeah, I don't know how to deal with that yet. Maybe after the honeymoon. Right now, I need to keep my mind positive." Someone else came over and hugged them both, they did the small talk thing and then as soon as she left he said "And don't you start feeling guilty, I would have been gone this summer anyway."
9 Dec 13, 01:15 AM
Keela: She nods, "right, positive." Then sighs when she knows she's caught. "I can't help it really. I know he's got the others but, all I keep thinking about is that first day with him on the train..."
9 Dec 13, 01:19 AM
[×] Vin: Nods, shakes his head. "I know, I'm his bog bro. No one else spends as much time with him as I do. trust me, I think about it all the time."
9 Dec 13, 01:21 AM
Keela: She nods toward the direction where Darius and Brier disappeared. "Maybe they'll be good for each other. I think Brier may have a bit of a crush on him anyway."
9 Dec 13, 01:22 AM
[×] Vin: Startled look, eats a bite off the plate, thoughtfully. "A crush on him? Hmm. Because he's quiet and withdrawn?"
9 Dec 13, 01:27 AM
Keela: She shook her head. "She wrote a few weeks ago that he was helping her with potions and that he was cute." She smiles softly to herself, "said something about trading recipes and showing him the house in the RoR." She smirked at him, "sound familiar, love?"
9 Dec 13, 01:30 AM
[×] Vin: Now looks at her with a wide eyed look. Excuse me, did she say who offered, him or her? Cause I have a hard time fitting this into my mind. He's helping her with potions. Different." Laughs. "Dear heart, I don't think I've ever traded recipies with you, but the ROr has some pretty wonderful memories I admit..."
9 Dec 13, 01:34 AM
Keela: She's surprised by his reaction. "She showed him the RoR, I think because she thought he might need a space to relax by himself." She shrugs, "I think it happened then." She grins at him, "we always did get distracted when we tried to cook, yes."
9 Dec 13, 09:33 AM
Vin: So this was sounding more serious then he would have at first thought. He had no problems with someone liking his brother, in fact he hoped it really did wake Darius up to real life, but he was concerned about what reaction Darius might have, especially if things went wrong later on. "Darius is more the cook in our family. I don't think even mom shows a third as much of an interest. It's both heartening that our family trusts each other so much and that he protects and loves us so much that we have never given it a second thought. He learned most of the dishes from both dad and mom's backgrounds. You've seen her feeding everyone like dogs to the trough, well Darius makes each dish very carefully, following all the correct preparations, getting it just right." 'And that is part of what i think an outsider would be scared of actually.' "It's why he does so well with potions, the exact list of what has to be followed to a t. As well as other things." He didn't explain that part,
9 Dec 13, 09:35 AM
[×] Vin: but it was clear he wasn't saying everything either. "I've always tried to help him along because I see something going wrong with him if someone doesn't take an interest in his welfare. He has some pretty strong issues which keep him separate from most people. Maybe he will see her as safe enough to trust. How would she respond to being absolutely trusted, Keela? That might be the real thing to think about here."
9 Dec 13, 12:34 PM
Vin: Thinks abut that a minute. "he's better then good. He's been doing special assignments for three years now with the Professor. So then yes, I can see her being interested in him." He debated a minute before adding more. "Now is not a good time for this conversation Mova..."
9 Dec 13, 12:39 PM
Keela: She nodded, glancing around at their audience, she laid her head on his shoulder and sighed before pulling back and smiling. "You're right, we could change it. Like, you could tell me where we're going for example..."
9 Dec 13, 12:42 PM
[×] Vin: Picking up a tidbit (some meat wrapped in cheese thing) and giving her a look with rolled eyes, put it in her mouth instead of his own. "I am not giving up the best kept secret I've ever had so no, sorry. You did pack more then one bathing suit right? and a long flight, that's all you get to hear for now." He grinned.
9 Dec 13, 12:45 PM
Keela: She gave him a look as she chewed, then swallowed hard. "Same thing your mother said" she mumbled, "and yes, I have three." She looked as though she was very close to pouting at him. "You're no fun."
9 Dec 13, 12:50 PM
[×] Vin: Nods. "Mom knows nothing but she is curious. I'm sure she will have it out of dad by the time we get in the air." Smirks then shakes his head. "I am, on the contrary, quite a lot of fun actually, you just don't like secrets. And it's the one part of the wedding the groom is expected to take care of and you want me to give away my part" he popped some food in his mouth and shook his head at her amused.
9 Dec 13, 12:53 PM
Keela: She manages to grin in spite of her disappointment. "That, I think, is the true miracle." How did anyone keep anything from his mum? She nods, "I actually have a few secrets I think you're going to like when we get to wherever it is we're going." Gifts, stashed away from a surprisingly entertaining bachelorette party.
9 Dec 13, 12:57 PM
[×] Vin: He nodded. "I had to appeal to dad for standing by me in my hour of need. Guys need to stick together at times like these." Winks and laughs drinks some punch. "Eat, Keela, please." Eyebrows go up at the mysterious answer. "Oh my! That sounds embarrassing for airport security."
9 Dec 13, 01:00 PM
Keela: She arches an eyebrow at him, but willingly takes a bite out of another sandwich. They were good after all. She frowns, she hadn't thought of airport security, but then she shrugged. "I'm pretty sure they've probably seen worse, Caro Mio."
9 Dec 13, 01:03 PM
Vin: Snorts and nods, imagining people like that saw a lot of oddities. "Do we really have to speak to every single person here? Or can we fake a half-sincere wave and escape early?" knowing the answer
9 Dec 13, 01:08 PM
Keela: She glances around, hesitates. "Well, your mum did go through a lot of trouble..." She seems torn, not wanting to skip out on everything for her families' sakes but desperately wanting to put some space between them and the chaos.
9 Dec 13, 01:13 PM
[×] Vin: Sighs. " I was afraid you might put it that way, we're stuck for it then. Okay well finish off your food, dear" he imitated an old woman's voice "Cause you'll be needing it dearie!" and then laughed, putting the last two bites of his in and drinking down the punch. "We need to be on display a bit longer. Separate or together?"
9 Dec 13, 01:22 PM
Keela: She grinned cheekily at him. She obligingly finished off her sand which, almost choking when she laughed at his comment. "I'm sure" she said simply. Glancing around at all of the people, only a few of which she recognized, she didn't hesitate. "Together."
9 Dec 13, 01:26 PM
Vin: Slipping his hand in hers, they went to do the greetings, walking through and speaking to nearly everyone, thanking everyone for coming and such. They were near the end when Char came and whispered to Vin "Put them on your bed. You might be finished unwrapping them in a month" and hugged them both before it seemed a good time to be off. Waving to his father Vin motioned they were going and got back the high sign.
9 Dec 13, 01:29 PM
Keela: She would never remember everyone in this sea of faces. She needed a pensieve. She hugged Char and at least a dozen other people as they headed for the door. When they were safely out of the greenhouse, she turned to Vin. "What did Char say?" She wasn't sure she wanted to know, but she was curious nonetheless.
9 Dec 13, 01:31 PM
[×] Vin: Waving bye behind him "She put all the presents on my bed, crafty bugger, as a joke cause we have to remove them all. Said it would take us a month to unwrap them all." Chuckled as they headed for the front doors.
9 Dec 13, 01:37 PM
Keela: She grinned, "or we could just stash them all in the closet until further notice" she pointed out. She gave him a mischievous look, "how close is my family staying to your bedroom?"
9 Dec 13, 01:42 PM
[×] Vin: "Um" pauses wondering himself. "I don't know actually, but it won't matter. Since I'm the Moon of the house I simply will ask Abraham to hide the room from others till the morning." Sly grin
9 Dec 13, 01:45 PM
Keela: She laughed, "have I mentioned recently how much I love that ghost?"She looked thoughtful for a moment, "so does my access change now, or is the same as before?" She'd probably spend the majority of her life asking Abraham to rearrange rooms for her, but it didn't hurt to ask.
9 Dec 13, 01:48 PM
[×] Vin: Smiled "He is pretty fantastic I admit, what boring houses most people have. Their rooms are always the same." Grins "Keela now, remember, I did say you had the same access I had, remember? I trust you with everything, including my heart." stops her and kisses her on the front stoop
9 Dec 13, 01:53 PM
Keela: She nodded, remembering that conversation suddenly. "Maybe I should have gotten Abraham to give me the tour" she shook her head. She kissed him back, smiling softly up at him. "Shall we, love?"
9 Dec 13, 04:52 PM
Vin: Laughs 'We'll have plenty of time for a tour when we get back. Right now I have other things entirely on my mind and they have nothing to do with the house." Bends and scoops her up in his arms, holding her and kicking the door open. "The Master returns!" he said loudly walking in to the front hall as Abraham slowly materializes. "Abraham! My room please." The door appeared in front of them and he snorted and said "The door, man, can't you see I'm occupied?" And the door opened to which Vin walked in with a big grin saying "Thank you Abraham! Good job! See to it no one can reach us till the morning!"
9 Dec 13, 05:43 PM
Keela S: Though she had half-expected what came next, she still laughed when he swept her up. She gave Abraham an apologetic look as they passed. An entire night just the two of them with no possibility for interruptions? She grinned, "so, can I consider this a wedding present?"
9 Dec 13, 07:46 PM
Vin: Ginning at her question he nodded. "Consider it a personal one, love, but it is traditional for the husband to carry the bride across the threshhold, I just shortened the distance to the end and-- Merlin!" he stopped inside the door as it closed behind him looking at packages stacked six high on top of and overflowing two sides of the bed.
9 Dec 13, 08:31 PM
Keela: She gave him a look. "What?" She followed his gaze and her own widened. "Wow...we have some...generous relatives don't we?" She shakes her head, "so much for putting it all in the closet."
9 Dec 13, 08:33 PM
[×] Vin: Stands there holding her, then hesitates. Smiles wider. "Oh. maybe another closet then that one." Eyes go over to the wardrobe." Nods.
9 Dec 13, 08:33 PM
Vin: Stands there holding her, then hesitates. Smiles wider. "Oh. maybe another closet then that one." Eyes go over to the wardrobe." Nods.
9 Dec 13, 08:42 PM
Keela: She smirks, "or maybe we could leave it all out here and stash ourselves in the closet" she points out with a mischievous look
9 Dec 13, 08:45 PM
Vin: Nods. "We could, just remember this bed is twice as big as the other. So if you don't mind tight fits we can continue." Chuckles. "Or maybe if you like them more so..."
9 Dec 13, 09:01 PM
Keela: She shook her head at him. "Whichever works, I wouldn't mind putting this" she motions to the pile, "off for a few hours."
9 Dec 13, 09:08 PM
[×] Vin: Carries her over to the wardrobe, waits while she opens the door, then takes then through with the word. Walks back over to the old bed in the back and sets her down on the bed with a smile. "Well well well, what a pretty young woman you are! Can I keep you?"
<3
It's the only way I can distract myself from the real world issues I have to deal with daily so I NEED to.
