"Pure salt does a much better job, though it does sting a hundred times worse. We used to use it when we got hurt back in Andal and the sisters were being stingy with treatment methods. So I'm used to it a bit." Giving a little shrug and then turning his attention to her as she scooted up and settled herself against his shoulder. "I saw him playing in the nursery with Malikhai before we came in here. I assume they're still there...they can play for hours on end after all."
Piper gave a final pet to the horse and walked herself back out of the stables and over to the lake. Where two little elves were currently playing in. Yes those boys got bored from time to time and they had come to her with that problem. Ended up in a playing outside suggestion that after ten minutes turned into playing in the water and swimming adn seh was watchign them...though a stable hand had been left with them for the breif moment she was away and he was now sent back as she sat down on a rock to watch the boys as they had thier fun. "Stay in the shallows boys."
He giggled, splashing at his friend and having his general fun, no worries about the underdark around them so long as mommy was there to watch. Though he had tried several times to get her to play with them in the water...he was contemplating just splashing her and then she'd be wet so it wouldn't matter. But attention back to Zykariel.

Pure salt would be a b***h going down especially on the throat. She made a childish face the way Zykariel did anytime he saw something he dind't like with her tongue stuck out and her face all scrunched up. "Yuk. Pure salt." She laughed softly and shook her head. "As long as someone knows where they are. Though, those boys could play for days on end if they were allowed to." She mulled on that for a few moments, it was amazing how much she'd learned about childhood since Zykariel's magical appearance. "Have you ever wanted another child?" she asked curiously.
Zykariel came up from beneath the water and spit a bunch of it out like a fountain then grinned as some water splashed towards him and splashed back. "Don't you wanna play with us Miss Piper?" She did that sometimes. His Mommy did too though she usually took him into the dangerous lake that she had threatened him to never go in alone.

He gave a light chuckle, clearing his throat afterwards at the face she had made. After all, she never really did things like that and when she did it was amusing now wasn't it? Much so. Then again she was always very open in thier little moments like this. But then a blink at her question that was more or less totally unexpected to hear. Why would she want to know that? "I don't know...after all, I think the question would be have I ever wanted to raise another child. I've had plenty." Though he avoided answering now didn't he?
Piper gave a smile as she watched them. They were just so cute sometimes. "No dears, I'm fine." She was happy just to watch them and just sit there.
Malikhai gave a noise at being splashed back, throwing up a forearm to keep water from hitting him in the face. Plodding through water over to his friend he covertly whispered to him. "I think we should splash her."

She loved his chuckle, usually ended in that lopsided grin that made her want to grin right back. Zykariel got that grin too though his was more of a crooked one but it melted her heart every time she saw it. "Minor technicality and stop avoiding." He got a slightly exasperated look though she doubted he even saw it. "Okay, you've had plenty of kids but have you ever wanted to raise another child? Besides Zykariel of course."
Zykariel backpedaled in the water then stood upright and glanced at Miss Piper for a moment and then back at his friend. Hmm, tempting, tempting. If Khai wanted to do it he was all for it. That mischevious glint entered his violet eyes and he nudged his friend, moving them covertly closer for maximum splashing opportunity.
"Count of three? One...two....three..." Thus he let free with a flurry of splashing guaranteed to soak whoever was in three feet of the lake.

He shook his head lightly at her and her prodding of the issue. Did he know the answer? Wasn't really sure of anything himself. "Hm...I don't know. I mean I am getting on in years," A slight chuckle at that, see he could poke fun at himself, "but I suppose I wouldn't be against it. Kind of like making up for what I couldn't do before." A slight shrug, after all he knew the possibilites of him gaining another child were quite slim. But he was happy with just Zykariel as well. "Why do you ask? Lookng for more insight into my being or are you just nosey?"
That same look glinted in his own silvery ones and together they worked thier way close enough, Malikhai working himself into splashing position as his friend counted and mommy's attention had turned eleswhere for just a tiny moment. On three, thus commenced the splshing. There, now she was wet and it didn't matter.
Piper realized what they were doing at the last moment and by then it was too late and the in vain held out an arm to sheild herself some. Didn't work too well and she found herself quite wet now, water soaking into her clothes and to her skin. "Boys..." Giving them a chastising look before it turned into a smirk. "Oh boys...you better get running." Jumping up from her position in the water, and taking at the boys to chase them through the shallower parts, stopping and splashing at them when she got the chance.

She scoffed and shook her head, "You're as young and spry as I am...well okay maybe not as young but certainly as spry. You and I can go for hours on end without a break." And that sounded so much less dirty in her head. Though her eyes widened in mock horror. "My gods that would be like...over a hundred kids wouldn't it? You'd either have to impregnate a hundred women or me a hundred times..." She shook her head, "That's a lot of sex..." All teasing him of course, then she snickered. "Aren't they basically the same thing? Curiosity or just plain nosey?" See, she could avoid too.
Zykariel let out a peal of laughter as he took off racing to the other end of teh shallow. In his experience Piper would probably go after Malikhai first so he was safe for a little bit though he did splash at her to try to slow her down. Weren't mommy's fun?

He blinked at her at her comment. Not really sure how to feel about it, and decided that that hadn't come out the way she had wanted it to because it didn't quite come out right for him to hear either. But a shake of his head at her poking fun at him. "I don't think I would enjoy that that much. After all, I don't pay attention to women anyway now do I? I'm quite glad to be off the sexual market." Quite literally on that statement. "And I doubt you would be pregnant hundred times." Though it was quite odd that she mentioned herself exclusively there. "I suppose they are...except one involves more eavesdropping."
Malikhai let out a squeal of sorts before he took off with his friend. Seemed mommy wasn't picking anyone over anyone else today and she could actually get them both fairly easy now couldn't she? But he spalshed back as she did, and eventually they both had gotten caught.
Piper was on he knees in the water, and arm around each boy to more or less hold them hostage in her embrace and tickling or splashing them till the fell in the water as well and she only took to tickling them all the more. Okay, it felt good to play with them.

"I don't want to be that fat." She shrugged lightly and glanced down at her fingernails, frowning when she saw how jagged one or two of them had become from the fight. She'd have to borrow Piper's nail file... Sh wasn't going to say it but she was quite glad he was off the sexual market as well. It turned her stomach to think of his sisters 'renting' him out more or less even though she knew it was a common enough practice for drow to particpate in. "Well, I'm not an eavesdropper. I'll come right out and insert myself into the conversation. Make comments on it too." She was quiet for a moment and then cleared her throat. "Malik's teaching Malikhai how to use a sword."
Zykariel giggled and kicked and squirmed. He was ticklish! He fell on his bottom easily enough though it didn't hurt and he splashed at her to get her off of him. "Miss Pi-per.." Giggle. Laugh. Squirm. "S-sto-op!"

"This is true, you do love to get into someone's conversation and taking it over as well." Giving another little chuckle and cough, slipping down some so that he was more or just relclined back over being sitting up. Though he went quiet as she did before she took a subject change and he nodded. "I heard...and I'm quite surprised that Zykariel hasn't asked the same thing of me yet." A little shrug. "Then again he's rather focused on his magic right now."
He giggled and squirmed just the same but made it a priority to keep up his splashing somehow or another. At least keep her wet and thus playing at the very lease. "Mommy! C-can't bre-eath!" Too busy giggling.
She continued to tickle and splash at them. Hey, there were wearing just thier pants, where she was wearing a full outfit, not to mention her hair was long and thus soaked up water to make her back further wet. So they could handle a little more waterlogging than she could. But she let up on them a moment to let them catch thier breaths.

"Pisses Malik off to high heaven, which is probably why I got into the habit in the first place." She assumed the child had informed Sevilin of what his friend was learning. Best way to know what was going on in both houses really, ask the kids. Both were quite observant and just knew things, some things they probably shouldn't know included. "Were you planning on teaching him your polearm or daggers? Or were you just going to let it go and wait to see what happens when he asked?"
He sat there holding his breath and knowing better than to try to get away. She would only catch him again and the torture would recommence. But...torture was fun. Thus, he slipped under her arm, toddled through the water, still catching his breath adn started splashing her. "Won't get me so easy this time!"

"I was just going to wait until he asked and made the choice of what he wanted to learn himself. After all, I remember learning the sword, and I've never liked it. Proficent in it yes, but still...so I don't want to force him to learn something he's never going to use. Better to just let him ask and teach what he asks." Simple as that to Sevilin.
Piper gave a chuckle as Zykariel slipped away and only took to splashing her all the more...good thing the dye in her hair didn't run or she'd had a mess on her hands all the time. But as she turned her attention she was suddenly pushed back into the water on her back.
Malikhai launched himself at his mother, putting her down on her back and sitting on her, taking to splashing and tickling at her. "Ambush!" A triumphant noise from him as he continued his counter attack.

She nodded, made sense to her as well. Of course they weren't nearly as a**l as Malik was with his kid. She had no doubt that boy would be a mini shadowknight by the time he was ten. She was more inclined to just sit back and let Zykariel learn what he wanted to know and forget what he didn't. If he didn't want to learn magic, then so be it. If he wanted to learn the dagger then she'd be more than willing to teach him. Of course that didn't apply to his math and reading and science. She was already prompting him to learn how to do basics with potions. Especially in the Underdark, one never knew when they might need a quick fix. "You might want to hint to him that you are willing to teach him at anytime. He may not be aware."
Zykariel turned around to notice that Piper was currently down for the count and he eagerly raced back over to help out his friend. He plopped on the lower part of her body so she couldn't kick and squirm and let Malikhai splash and tickle to his heart's content.

"Duely noted." Sure he went with the 'when he thinks he'll ask policy' but perhaps Zahara was right and the child needed to know that it was okay to ask these things. After all Sevilin had a tendency to be over protective with the boy at times over certain issues. But some things needed to be dealt with now didn't they? He gave another cough, bringing his hand up to cover his mouth and then cleared his throat. Though he did reach a hand under the sheets she was using to cover herself, feel across her stomach where his earring was currently occupying where her own navel ring would be, checking to make sure it was all okay.
And she was being held down in water getting even more soaked as children sat on her to keep her down and were splashing and tickling at her. Oh she was going to need a nice hot bath after this, or maybe just a nice long soak in the spas. "Okay! Okay! You two win! You win!"
He gave a triumphant giggle, still sitting on his mother and reveling in his victory before he turned and pounced his friend in a hug, the both of them rolling off Piper and into the water a moment. "We win!"

She glanced down at her tummy and then up at him and then back down at her tummy before folding the sheets back so he could see. "I do appreciate you lending me yours," she said softly trying not to get distracted by his hand drifting over her skin. Didn't help much as the warmth from his fingers spread through her body and she let out a soft whimper as the heat reignited other areas. "Can he have a horse?" she managed without stuttering or stammering which she was rather proud of.
Zykariel nodded happily and then squealed as he was pounced before a mock battle ensued and they both ended up sprawled in the water, giggling. "That's cause we're a good team." He sat up and shook his head hard, his braid whipping and droplets splashing in all directions. "Plus we know how to strategize." Ooh look fun usage of a word he'd heard in adult conversation.

Sevilin examined a little with his eyes as seh had foled back the sheets, though his eyes didn't wander stupidly to other areas. "It's alright, mine's long settled and in no danger of giving me trouble." He pulled his hand away perhaps too quickly for it to be considered a casual movement and bit his bottom lip a moment at the whimper she had made, he wasn't quite sure how to handle the noise, so he merely removed what he thought made her make it and averted his eyes somewhat. "Why a horse?"
He tried his best in thier little fight only like his friend to end up sprawled on in the water. "Nothing beats a good stratefy either." Ot at least that's what daddy always said. But he sat himself up, all sopping wet and dripping, looking over to his mother. "We didn't hurt ya did we mommy?"
Piper was sitting up at this point and had her hair over her shoulder, wringing it out somewhat and chuckling lightly. "No boy's I'm quite alright. Wet, but alright." Another laugh from her, though she did reach a hand back and lightly prod at the sore spot that was still there. Had to be careful of that as she was playing with the boys.
