"I won't." At least not yet. That little insistent reminder had her mentally checking the time. Her deadline was still a while away but this had to be done or she was just going to blurt the whole thing out and that would be very bad. "I guess you're right and I should just wait for that point and not worry about it. The fact is, I am his mother and nothing he can say or do can change that, I'm not leaving him or you ever and that too isn't likely to change." A shake of her head again and she sliced up the last of the fish. "I want to go home."

"Keep reminding him and showing him that and it will all work out. I for one, am quite that that you're not going anywhere." Giving her a lopsided grin before it smoothed out to that serious look once more at her words. "Do you want to go ahead and take Zykariel and yourself back home? I'm not too thrilled with the idea of you two being out of my sight though..." He of course had been planning to stay until he could get those runes back up.

She gave him a smile back then shook her head as he went onto serious topics. "No. He's having fun playing with Malikhai and I need to stay to keep an eye on Piper. Plus I don't really want to go back without you either." Searching through cabinets she found a freezable container and dumped the fillets in then stored them in the freezer before dumping the knife and cutting board in the sink and bringing over the trash can to sweet the less desirable parts into it. "Just promise me as soon as we can we will."

"Soon as I have runes back up and you think that Piper will be alright without you, then we'll go back home. I promise." Giving her another smile...hey it was nice to know that she felt comfortable with him like that and it wasn't always just sex and a child that kept them near each other sometimes. But he went to the sink, dropping his knife in and then washed his hands, giving a sigh. "Two days I would think...one to get runes up, which has never taken me long, and then another to deal with Khaiver. Then it's back home for us."

She nearly dropped the rag she'd picked up to clean up the counter and get rid of al the blood. "What? No. Sevilin, you can't go see him. You can't." If he went to see that b*****d she couldn't save him. Especially since she knew what Khaiver wanted and needed from him. Khaiver wouldn't take the care or precision necessary to preserve the muscles in his face. He'd do it as slowly and excruciatingly as possible, causing Sevilin much more pain in the process. "One more day. Get your runes up and we'll go home. Please."
The boys had been playing for a few hours and Zykariel was beginning to get hungry and tired. He swiped his sword at the last of the imaginary monsters attacking the plane and turned to his comrade in arms. "I think we should get a reward now. How about cookies?" Thus scampering off to find his parents and tugging at his mother. "Mommy, Malikhai and I want some cookies."
Lateef tucked a piece of hair behind his wife's ears and then met Malik's gaze. "Well then I quite have an agenda set out for me don't I? Now if you'll pardon us Malik, we are quite weary from the journey. Extra-planar traveling does odd things to me and Caprice has had to deal with it. I do believe we're going to call it a day or night or whatever it is down here and we'll catch up later on. Besides, you need to tend to your wife." He turned and walked with his wife back to their bedroom, settling in.

He blinked at her reaction. She was really against this wasn't she? "I can handle it this time...besides, I'm not going to go see him just yet. I have to get things back in order here. Besides, Khaiver may just back down if he knows I have my runes back." Though Sevilin knew he wouldn't...."Don't worry." His attention turning to children. "You had cookies already today, and it's almost bedtime anyway."
He had been about to add in the please part when bedtime was mentioned. "Aw...that's no fun.

She still wasn't pleased with that but she'd just have to convince him to go back with her tomorrow. Maybe she could get him to clean with her or something. Under no circumstances could she let him go see Khaiver. Period. The children were easy enough to settle and even Sevilin fell into reverie quickly. She sat there beside his still in reverie form and laid a hand on his cheek. How was she going to do take a dagger to that beautiful face? She wasn't quite sure how, but eventually she too fell into reverie.
((Day change, because I can))
Zykariel was up with at dark and early like normal, ready to play. He glanced over beside him but Mommy was gone. Thus he was out of that bed and running to find her. The rest of the house was quiet and he finally found her sitting at the dining room table. "Mommy?" he asked crawling into her lap. "What's wrong?"
She jerked and glanced down at her son giving him a smile. "Morning Kariel." She took his cheeks in her hands and gave him a kiss. "Nothing little one. Just didn't feel reverie, that's all. How about some breakfast?" She'd made up her mind about what she was going to do to prevent things from happening.

He was up before all of them and out of bed already, busy putting runics up around the place where they had been before. WAsn't too much of a hardship to do...a little stressful but nothing enough to cause bleeding...well, yet anyway. He still had the grounds to do. Finishing up the fortress itself, he headed into the kitchen. "Zahara, give me your wrists before I go out."
Sitting between his parents in their bed, his eyes watched his mother as she was in reverie but it was a fitful one. She just wasn't laying still this morning and was making a noise that didn't sound too happy every now and then. Sometimes she'd open her eyes, blink a few times and then close them again before going back to the pattern. Oh he didn't like that...so then a look to daddy.

A shake of her head. "Good morning to you too, Sevilin. Have you eaten yet?" But she offered up her wrists and after he'd healed them, she removed the bandages. "Thanks. Don't work too hard and no bleeding. I mean it." Thus she signalled a serf and ordered Zykariel waffles and pancakes since she wasn't making them and she could always share them with him. "Daddy and I have to go back home today, little one. Remember that mess we left? We have to clean that up before you can come home. Lots of glass and unsafe things and I don't want you getting hurt. You can stay here and play with Malikhai and when we're all finished, we'll come get you, okay?"
"Careful Daddy. Love you." He was still sitting in her lap, fork in hand and pushing a piece of waffle around in the pool of syrup on his plate. Mommy had a fork too and was helping him eat his breakfast, which was fine with him. "How come I can't come too? I can help."
"Because there's too much glass. Remember when it happened and you weren't allowed to move from the stool? I don't want you to cut yourself and you'll have more fun here with Malikhai. Besides," kissing the top of his head. "I think he wants you to stay with him. His mommy is still hurt. He needs a friend right now."

"I had toast." Healing her wrists for her and then giving his son a pat on the head as he passed him back up, "Love." heading outside...where he begrudgingly saddled up a horse...it would just be faster to hit all the borders this way and then be done with it all. Thus onward with him...that would take him a good two hours to reach everything he needed to, incribing runes back up...and he was pretty worn out by the time he was coming back to the fortress, wiping some blood that leaked from his nose. Staunching the blood flow, he headed back inside.
Malikhai had long sense abandoned his parent's bed and still in his night clothes had toddled downstairs to sit with Zykariel and Zahara, eating some breakfast as well, and asking questions about his mother. He didn't like worrying about her after all.

Zahara was doing her best to calm the boy's fears, explaining to him what happened when certain bones got broken and telling him that as soon as breakfast was over, she was going to take care of it. Magic was back in full force though still slightly weakened, she'd cut and healed herself to prove it to the boys. Just a little slice with a knife, nothing too big if it wasn't fully back yet. She glanced up the moment she sensed Sevilin was coming and her eyes clouded. "Are you alright? Why dont' you get some reverie. You look like you could use it."

Walking into the dinning room, he pet his son's hair again before looking at Malikhai, noticing that it was just him up right now and he wasn't tagging along with his parents. But his attention went to Zahara and he gave a sniff. "I'm fine, and I don't need any." A light shrug before he leaned against the table, and crossed his arms over hsi chest. "Though I have all the runics back up...so things should start going back to normal...which will be nice for a change."

She raised an eyebrow as if to say she didn't quite agree but knew better than to argue in front of the children. "That is nice. I have to go heal Piper and then you and I need to go clean up the house. Zykariel is going to stay here so you with Malikhai and play. We need to let Keely know since Malik isn't up yet." Wait, Malik wasn't up yet...but if those two had sex she was going to kick Malik's a**. "You can come if you'd like Malikhai." Thus setting her son down at the table to finish playing in his syrup (his father was there which meant he wouldn't be able to do anything until his hands were clean) she headed upstairs, knocking lightly on Piper's door before turning it and heading in. Both elves still deep in reverie, she healed her friend's broken bone and a few other bigger cuts, then tucked her back in. THe bags could be translocated but she did grab her cloak then made her way back downstairs. "Alright boys. You two need to get dressed, teeth brushed and then you can play. Stay out of trouble and be nice to each other. Love you." Leaning down she plopped a kiss on each little mouth then nodded to Sevilin. "Ready?"

He waited in almost annoyed fashion for her to do her healer thing, after all, he wasn't looking forward to cleaning anything at all. A kiss pressed to his son's head, rufflign his hair. "You two be good," onward then. "Why are we leaving Zykariel?" Said as he took to following her easily enough through the fortress and then out of it.

Because I don't want him around when I carve up your face. Somehow she didn't think that would go over too well though. "Too much glass and I don't quite know the state of the house. It's been left alone for a while and Underdark things like to nest." She headed out into the yard and then looked at him. "Translocation, walking or horses?"
