    Cessie chuckles, "Yes, once everything have settled down." Of course, this felt so much like it already had settled down compared to the adventures she once had.

    "Perhaps we should take something to eat downstairs while Harnel is working?"

    [Mithar Keep 2]

    Is this the future or the present? If the first, Cessie would likely come down to meet them. I'd assume it's the future considering all things but you never know in the nexus.

    Definitely the future, so Cessie is likely coming down to find Harnel attempting to get a serpentine little dragon to get up onto a bed, talking in the harsh consonants of the draconic tongue.

    First a portrait of Inside at night, then a haunted looking house, then the casino, and finally Boo's face, open wide and looking for all the world like he's eating the Proton Capture Stream. If it were actually Boo he would most likely be pulled from the mirror, so it's safe to assume this is merely an image.

    The staff sinks a half foot into the wall, but since the illusion messes with the senses Michalson will most likely believe that it rests on the surface with a hollow *Thunk.*

    Of course, if Edijar is looking in that direction, his magic immunity will probably allow him to see through the ruse. He still won't be able to see beyond the lightwarping of the false wall, but since the sense meddling requires direct contact with his mind it will undoubtedly fail.

    Nothing wrong with this wall, it seems. Michalson glances at the mirror. Now that was interesting... we should assume the ghost knows we're here now.

    Mithar Keep 2

    Kashi looks at the bed dubiously, but will climb up on to it after a moment and curl up in the pile of bedding Harnel has provided.

    "Snyyuu...~ <Kruth, si geou ti jikmada youwei... Coi ui ti tangis tonn usv hrekim hefoc. Shar coi tiric vorq skaeren...>"

    Kashi's understanding of draconic can be summed up as very basic. Most of the words he's using have short, simple meanings. It could be that the word Harnel chose had a second meaning.

    Once he's comfortable nestled into the fabric, a thought occurs to the dragon, "Ssnyyui~? <Tiric nomeno jatil si mi dout lincesa?>"

    The sorceress approaches the two with a surprised look on her face. What had her husband done this time?

    "Harnel, who's your... friend?" She asks while slowly approaching the two.

    "Sure, I could go for some food." Sakura stands, ready to follow Cessie. "It's going to be so weird when the baby's born and I don't really need to eat anymore." Just like it was weird when she needed to start eating.

    "It feels strange to change your habits doesn't it? I haven't had much of an appetite either until now either. I'll be glad once it's over." She wasn't much of a fan of this pregnancy thing, human babies took way too long to give birth to.

    "Harnel don't seem to mind though but his society is quite different from others. Did he ever tell you how many children people where he lives usually have?" Cessie asks as they reach the kitchen which apparently got a fridge.

    "No, how many?" she asks curiously. Her eyes wander around the kitchen, looking for something to eat. She's still not used to making her own food. Might be a good idea to learn how to do so at some point.

    Cessie have learned to make very basic food as she traveled around a lot. This skill isn't particularly suited for a woman (or man) of her class as making food is supposed to be a servants job.

    None the less she opens the fridge and starts taking out different food and some bread to make some sandwiches.

    "Seven, can you imagine that?" The mage asks while putting some butter on. This would be much easier once you had a few servants.

    Sakura giggles. "Wow, yeah that's a lot." She pauses thoughtfully. "You know, I don't think I'd mind having seven kids." She decides.

    In the strange alternate dimension where Sakura and Harnel somehow get together, there are babies. Babies everywhere! =O

    "Really?" The mage asks with a raised eyebrow. "But wouldn't you be worried having to take care of them all? My mother had nine children and I can't even recall her reading books for me." That was a servants job after all.

    "I dunno. I think we could figure it out. I know that Adir probably wouldn't want that many kids, though." <.< Clearly she needs to work at wearing him down. Not that she doesn't already intend to for more kids. "I do want at least three kids, or maybe four. Right now I just want to worry about Laela, though." One thing at a time.

    "Funny, that's exactly how many children Harnel wanted us to have together. But going from none to two is a big leap. Not sure how I will go on from that.." The mage replies while handing Sakura a sandwich.

    "My mother started off with twins as well and then had seven others, but she had political reasons of course. I recall Arik always scorned her for that." Arik wasn't much of a children person.

    Meanwhile the sorceress starts eating her own sandwich.

    Sakura frowns briefly at the mention of Arik. He can go take his opinions somewhere else as far as she's concerned. It doesn't last, though.

    "I'm sure you'll do great raising them. Don't worry. We'll both learn as we go." Sakura nods and takes a bite out of her sandwich.

    "Ah... I hope so. I'm not sure I'm mother material at times, children have always made me weary." Cessie explains. "I couldn't even be near a woman giving birth, it looked... unpleasant." She looks away.

    Sakura reaches out to give Cessie's arm a reassuring squeeze. "There's nothing wrong with worrying. I'm worried too you know. I don't know anything about taking care of a baby. That's why I've had my nose in that motherhood book I have. I wanna learn as much as I can before the big day. Maybe that'd help you too. Then you kinda get any idea of what's coming." Sakura suggest. She doesn't comment on the being near a woman giving birth. Sakura knows that it's going to hurt. >.>

    "So you're the one who brings souls into the afterlife?"
    He sighed.
    "That's pretty depressing."
    He rubbed his temples.
    "Though I guess you probably don't do that anymore, the first time I met you, you said you got power from the souls of the things you eat..."
    He remembers it well, especially with all of those animals she ate.
    The animal eating was his favorite part.

    "I rather just hire some servants..." Cessie admits as Sakura squeezes her hand. "It's just that I'm not even sure what the children will be like. Can you imagine giving birth to something with a tail? Or wings?" She asks, looking back at the dryad.

    "Well I'm just glad that with any boys I wouldn't have to worry about antlers until they're older." Sakura says jokingly. "Remember that weird for you isn't that weird for me." Fey come in all shapes and sizes after all. "Besides, they'll look like you and Harnel, so it's not like it's something completely unexpected."

    Clarissa is both repulsed and appalled by Dave's accusations about her relationship with souls!

    "That's not funny, Dave!"

    Clarissa exclaims, a sour look washing over her countenance. And how could anyone enjoy watching Evil Clarissa consume live animals whole? She was all sorts of violent, disturbing, and sinister!

    "You of all people should know that's not how I roll."

    "Yes, but... I feel it's a bit weird." The mage replies as she touches her stomach gently. "I never imagine giving birth to quarter dragons, but then again, I never expected to marry a half-dragon either."

    "I guess..." Cessie replies with some hesitation. "I mean, I knew it was bound to happen eventually once I stopped using the alternation, it just feels like it's happening so fast. I wouldn't have minded waiting another year or so."

    Silly Cessie. Sakura doesn't know what birth control is. Clearly. >.>

    "I know the feeling. I broke down and cried when I found out I was pregnant I was so scared and worried. Some more time to think about it would've probably been good for us both. Well, it doesn't matter anymore. I wouldn't go back and change it for anything."

    She steps forward to try and hug her friend. Kind of difficult given that they both have larger stomachs. At least Cessie isn't too big yet. "You have Harnel to help you, and me and Adir too. Just remember that."

    "Lincesa?" Harnel says to the little dragon, "Axun, si filiik coi tiric."

    "Hi Cessie. This is Kashi; he's a little dragon that sweats out riches." Harnel looks positively giddy with what that could mean for his hoard.

    Clarissa makes a mental note of Dave's words before stubbornly pouting, crossing her arms over her chest and sighing as she is known to frequently do when upset.

    "What you probably observed was a demon impersonating me in an attempt to tarnish my name. Well I won't have it!"

    Clarissa growls, staring at one of her throw-pillows violently as though she is about to shred it with her bare hands!

    "Go talk to the people at GLoG! They'll tell you that I'd never devour thousands of animals at a time! Just one every now and then. But they know that I'd never kill actual people."

    "I'd never do that."

    "That's forbidden by the tenants that govern me!"

    Cessie hugs Sakura back, "Yes, I know, just streeses me out a bit thinking about everything this means." She admits. "Maybe I should try praying some more..."

    Mithar Keep 2

    "I see." The mage frankly have no idea why Harnel would so giddy about such a strange mutation. Riches are only riches since they are rare. If this creature sweats them out, they can't be riches for very long. It would eventually be known as garbage.

    "And I presume you didn't stole him from another dragon nest?" Cessie asks, crossing her arms underneath her chest.

    She doesn't believe that but the fact this event was so similar reminded her of what he had done.

    Harnel looks at Cessie flatly, "Neither of us believes I'd be stupid enough to do that again." As far as it goes, she has a bit of cause for alarm, sure, since Harnel has made bad moves in the past. But this is different! Honestly!
