Sevilin did indeed cut that steak up for Nym, pushing the plate to the creature to pick over as much as he wanted. He himself ended up downing two steaks and his potato and well...he really could eat more but he decided against it. So when he was duely finished he waited for Nym to finish his own and took both plates to the sink before returning to the the table. He contemplated the wine in the glass a moment...and then decided not to waste it.
Casually he leaned on his elbow on the table...he just felt...if was a odd feeling. A sense of being completely serene and mellow...not really caring if something was going to jump around a corner or even if there was dust gathering on some object in the house. Sevilin gave a lopsided grin, staring off into space a moment before turning his head to Zahara at her question. "Sounds good to me, serve it up."
Ooh cinnamon. She perked right up at that, taking what he offered with a little chuckle at his attention to things like that. He seemed to always know when to pull out a cinnamon stick just when she needed one, and sometimes when she didn't even know she needed one yet. One of those reasons she loved him. But a gesture to her left with her cinnamon stick before it found itself being duely chewed on. "It's never been right since Kaden." Her voice slightly quiet on the statement...she didn't like to talk about it. "Just gives out on me after a while...I thought it was all well and good but apparently not. Needless to say it doesn't help in the combat area." Looking down to Malikhai who was still duely latched to her like she was trying to run away from him or something. "Coming along pretty well in fact."

She nodded and cut him a generous piece, forgoing the hot fudge but giving him whipped cream to help combat the chocolate threaded throughout. Chocolate shavings sprinkled on top of that which then had to be added to the child's as well and his plate was passed down. She held out a creamy finger for Nym to enjoy as well and glanced at Sevilin. "I'll make you a deal. You take care of the dishes and I'll get Kariel settled."
Smothered in chocolate, enjoying his dessert perhaps a little too much the little drow felt the need to pipe up just then. "I don't want a bath and it's too early for me to go to reverie."

He rather lucidly sat that and poked at his dessert with his fork before jabbing out a slice and eating it, repeating the same action...yeah he was kind of out of it right now, not that he particularly cared. Red eyes went to watch Nym as he skittered over to Zahara and duely cleaned her finger with his little pink tongue before that slanted back over to her. "Alright." He liked to clean anyway now didn't he?
But his attention then turned to the child. "You don't have to have a bath tonight." For some reason he didn't want to put up with the fight that would come from that one. "Well then...what do you wanna do?"

She lightly stroked the ferret between his ears with one hand and glanced back towards their son. She had been planning on giving him a bath tonight despite what he felt he needed but snapped her mouth shut when Sevilin chose to speak up. There was no way she was going to be getting that child in the bath now. Walking over she picked up his napking and scrubbed chocolate off his face then picked him up out of his chair. "Zykariel and I have a book to finish, don't we?"
He protested as she went about doing the mother thing but it was barely there since this was what he wanted and then he latched to her top and nodded. "Yup. 'Cause I fell into reverie earlier and we didn't finish it."
"Right. She picked up her wine and drank the rest of it then gave a two finger wave. "You clean, I'll read and then we'll reconvene and discuss what happened earlier." She left the candle burning and turned, strolling away. She knew he desired her, hell he'd desired her when she was fat from pregnancy. Now he should be all but slobbering to get her. Except he was Sevilin and the thought of Sevilin slobbering was...not appealing. His toned down acceptance of desire and sexual tension was rather enjoyable to her. She'd had enough men slobbering over her to keep her occupied for a lifetime.

"Alright, I'll take a look at it. take your shirt off and sit down."
closing the pantries and turning to thier son.
"she's not going anywhere just yet, you can let go of her a bit so she can sit down you know."
Before gesturing to a seat, and a servant.
"Bring my field kit."

"Mmmhmm." Yup he was very much out of it and he watched after her as she walked away with thier son to go finish book reading. Yes he was practically staring as he was eating...though he was duely brought to reality as a certain ferret more or less jumped on his head, wanting some attention of some sort, leaning over to chitter in his face.
"Right, right...dishes." Thus finishing up his wine and his dessert, taking the dishes to the sink and duely going about putting away any leftovers, and cleaning counters as well as washing dishes. He breifly considered scrubbing the floors but then decided against it. But that kitchen was pretty sparking when he was done with it, finally returning to the table to snuff out those candles and then clean them up as well as the holders and table runner...there we go, kitchen back in order.
She watched him a moment and then raised an eyebrow as she was chewing on that cinnamon stick. Now that was a frightening phrase if she ever heard one. "What pray tell do you plan on doing to me?" Not that she didn't trust him...it was just odd to her that he would want to do something like that in the first place. After all, it was a four year old injury at this point. Reaching down she pried thier son off her leg and picked him up, but with a little wince though, setting him at the table there. "Eat your orange." Thus turning a chair to face Malik and pulling it over with an ankle before settling down in it and tugging her shirt over her head so he could get a look at her shoulder, though keeping the fabric on her arms so she could slip it back on easily without much fuss.
He let himself get pried off, but not without a tiny bit of protest and then sat at the table where he did tend to his orange as mommy had turned from him and back to daddy. "Did mommy hurt herself again?" See, he listened to his father complain about those sorts of things obviously.

It took about as long to finish the book as it did for Sevilni to finish his cleaning and then she picked the child up and carried him upstairs, listening to him chatter away about pirates and whatnot. She pulled off his clothes and settled him back in in a pair of light pants and an oversize tunic and then pulled back his covers, settling him in bed with Rawr. "Night Kariel. Sweet memories and we'll see you in the morning fresh from reverie, right?" Brushing her hand through his hair lightly and pressing twin kisses to his cheeks.
"Right. Love you as big as the Underdark Mommy. Where's Daddy? He's gotta tuck me in too. And I need Nym."
"And beyond." She said the words automatically, well aware of that little catchphrase as she pet through his hair. "He's coming little one. I'm going to get him right now." Thus down the stairs and she came into the kitchen and nodded to his job. He'd done very well, hadn't he? "Your son wants you to tuck him in and he wants Nym as well." She had atmosphere to create.

Hm, he was feeling a little more clear headed now wasn't it? Indeed he was. That was odd. But his attention came from his finishing touches on cleaning at the sound of Zahara's voice. A look to the ferret on his shoulder and then a nod to her. "Very well." Giving her a smile for whatever reason and then heading upstiars to his son.
Walking into the boy's room and over to the bed, he dropped Nym onto the covers who duely skittered his way up to the pillow and around the boy's head. Sevilin leaned down, pressing a kiss to his son's forehead and petting through his hair lightly. "Try really hard okay? More you get, more energy you'll have tomorrow. I love you Zykariel, big as the Underdark."

Zykariel's mind was already pushing him off as his brief stint earlier was not nearly enough and he yawned and nodded. "And beyond Daddy." He curled onto his side and said sleepily. "Don't forget to give Mommy her present and don't let her sleep alone. She gets scared sometimes."
Zahara was busy setting up a few more candles and lighting them around the room, pulling back the covers on the bed and kicking off her own boots. She brushed her teeth, removing any leftover food because that wasn't thrilling and then took a sip of the glass of wine she'd poured for herself, then methodically removed and folded her clothes before curling up onto her side to set her body off to best advantages in the flickering flames of the candles. "Anticipation is a double edged sword..."

He watched the boy drift off and smiled lightly. "Sure." Though that was a kind of odd statement about Zahara being scared...interesting indeed. Shoving his hands into his pockets he strolled from the room, pulling the door closed as he exited and started down the hall to his own room, whistling lightly again, feeling slightly lucid once more. Odd.
Heading back downstiars he grabbed the packaged cape he had dropped on a table by the door earlier and turned on his boot heel, heading back up. Though a sniff at the air at the smell of fire. Was she burning candles again? He followed his nose lightly, only to be quite surprised that it lead to his room....she was burning candles in his room...joy...Whistling stopped and he walked into his room. "Zahara why are you lighting candles in m-" Stopping mid sentence as he saw her.
There she was, bare on his bed in the glow of candle light in an otherwise dark room. the hand on the package he held gripped a bit tighter as he stood there slack jawed a moment, mind trying to decipher just what was going on but it seemed to be having trouble coming up with logic. It settled on idiocy as his response. Thus lopsided grin and, "Hi..."

Malik's kit was brought to him, and he set it on teh table, opening it up, and then running his fingers lightly over her shoulder, flickers or necromantic power.
"the torn and twisted muscles about your shoulder didn't quite heal right. this is going to hurt, but I can fix it. if you want something to bite on, now's the time."

She chuckled softly at his look and then tilted her head looking at him. "I think it gives the room just the thing, don't you?" Wicked little smile. He was cute when he wasn't with it. Standing unabashedly, she walked over and glanced down at the package, recognizing the tailor's seal. "Is that for me? Oh Raven you shouldn't have." She pulled it from his fingers and tapped his nose before unwrapping it and then sqealing in delight as she unwrapped a silky cape fastened at the throat by a jeweled clasp. The cape was a peculiar fabric that shimmered quite prettily when she moved so that the actual color wasn't definable. She read the note quickly and then laughed. "He made me pants." She swung the silk around her shoulders and let it settle there like a lover's caress, pulling the hood up, delighted that it was big enough that it didn't crunch her ears, then held up the pants. They were a lot like Sevilin's but made from softer fabric and the waist wasn't nearly as large though they tied easily enough. "Now I s'pose I won't have to borrow yours." She gave him another grin and tossed the pants to land with her other clothes before slanting her eyes slyly. "So?" she purred, "What do you think?"

She gave a snicker. " 'Let the clerics do thier job Piper'...though I suppose when you're almost dying of blood loss and not quite in your right frame of mind, one doesn't really think about screw ups." Ouch, that stung to say now didn't it...then again anything on that subject did. But Kaden had gotten his now hadn't he? Though knowing Malik he was probably still torturing that soul...stuck it in a bottle of hellish things or something. Triple colored eyes widened slightly and she almost choked on that cinnamon stick of hers, turning a look over her shoulder at him. "Say what now?" That didn't sound pleasant at all now did it? Not to mention it probably involved horrid necromantic things or something of that nature. A look to Malikhai. "Sweetheart, go play in the nursery for a while okay? I promise I'm not going anyhere." Waiting for the boy to stare at her a moment before he nodded, a little worried looking but toddled off for the moment. Kid did not need to see any of this. "I swear to Innoruuk, Malik D'vinn...don't make me hate you later for whatever it is you're about to do and you better make it up to me..." Because if he was telling her it was best to bite down on something...it was going to be bad. Thus she unbuckled her bracer, folded over the slightly stiff leather and place it between her teeth.
Reaching behind himself, he pulled the door closed as she had taken the package from him, along with nickname endearment, and thus squealed at it's contents, the nosie snapping himack some and he merely watched her a moment. "It...looks good on you." His eyes roaming her a bit with no hidden agenda about what exactly they were doing. "Very good in fact, quite flattering for a garment meant to hide one's figure." Clearing his throat lightly as if he was trying to keep it together. He felt odd for some reason, but it was a pleasant odd...which was even more odd. One of those smiles of his and his features took on a rather dashing look. "But I think you look better without it right now."

She let the hood fall back and gave him a sensual smile, tucking it away to make sure she thanked Piper for the wonderful candles she'd given her. They were working their magic and Sevilin didn't even have a clue. Her hands went to the clasp and then dropped to her waist, spreading the cape to reveal the charms it had been hiding. "Really?" giving him a playful yet coy look. "Then why don't you come remove it?"

He seemed more relaxed than usual when this sort of thing happened, his posture for example was nonchalant and rather open to this all. Keeping that smile, he more or less sauntered over to her and stood before her a moment, giving her another once over before raising a hand to undo the clasp and catch the cape all in once fluid motion, folding it over his arm even as he leaned forward to brush his lips against her. "My pleasure Sweetheart." Stepping back from her and purposefully taking his time to fold that cape...though it was done out of making her wait as opposed to a compulsion to fold it perfectly and set it aside, proof as he just plopped it haphazardly folded on top of the dresser before returning his attention to her. "Much better."
