They grow so fast Well, in the morning, Chael and I decided to take Sunny and the eggs to the ruins. We wouldn't tell Sunny where we were going but she took it pretty well. The eggs were put in one basket and our picnic lunch was put in another, it was a lovely walk there.
Some very strange things happened after we got to the ruins. The best thing that happened first was that both Menolly and Eros hatched. Here they are:   I think Menolly came out first, she has her mother's lovely eyes and such a lovely coloring to her and a wonderful personality. She reminds me of a sun in that she is happy, full of energy and smiling. Also, she is very adventurous. While our attention was on Eros, she hopped away. I felt my heart stop as I noticed she wasn't there. Chael stayed with Eros and Sunny as I went to go find her.
It didn't take too long and she said her first word, 'Momma' It seems to upset her most when she isn't touching someone. She also seems most found of her brother though its clear she loves us all.
Eros is more standoffish, but its clear that he is also happy and loves his family. It was really cute to see him and his baby sister apparently so close. His first word was 'Odd' and he started calling Chael and I odd. I don't think he knows what it means, he just can't do that to strangers.
Also, he called Sunny his big sister, which she is, it was just cute to hear.
Speaking of Sunny, she grew up! She was always a cute baby, but the little outfit she has just adds to it. I remembered one day, I told her she'd get arms and legs. Now she has them and is happy.
Here is something out of order. I met my sister for the first time and also, I met Letha again. Letha was extremely rude to me the first time I met her; although, I admit I could have been nicer to her. This time, she was acting extremely flirtatious until I flat shot her down. For the rest of the time, Chael was on edge about Letha and my sister. Both were very interested in our children and very gentle. Even when Eros bit Letha, they both stayed kind. I have no reason to dislike them or mistrust them.

We need a knocking rule We went home shortly after Letha and Morena left, Sunny walked with Chael and I carried the babies in their basket. The walk home was a pretty quite and peaceful one. If only I knew what would happen within the next few hours, I would have done a lot of things differently.
Chael scent Sunny to bed, I should have realized that the child had just gone through taking a nap and wouldn't sleep long. We put both of the babies in the same bed as they seem to love to betogether. Once out of their room, I wanted to take advantage of the peace we have and just kiss and hold Chael.
Even now that we are parents, I am still a bit hesitant about suggesting intimacy. It seemed Chael and I were on the same page and for the second time in our two month relationship, we were making love. The wonderful act was cut prematurely short when Sunny opened the door then shut it running out of the house.
Once again, my role as lover was put on the back burner as my role of father took over. I told Chael I'd go and get Sunny. Even without my animal senses, it wouldn't have been hard to find her. She was in the ruins as I guessed, I should have shown her something a lot closer to home. In many ways, I was so happy when she said she thought I was strangling Chael, it meant she didn't realize she walked into her parents making love, I am sure that would traumatize me as well.
I was also hurt that not only had Sunny called me by my name at first, but also that she thought I would hurt her mother. Chael is my world, I'd never harm her or any other living pae, all pae with the exception of my family would have to provoked before I attacked them. I explained to her that she just didn't see the whole view, after all it was a neck massage between kisses not a strangulation. I didn't tell her that last part of course, she doesn't need to know what her parents were really doing.
It took a bit of work, but I got her to agree to go home with me. On our walk, she told me about hearing voices. I won't lie, that disturbed me. I had never heard of hearing voices as being a good thing. She promised to tell Chael and I if the hat tells her to do anything bad.
It was getting late and I told her I'd change into any animal she wanted, I trusted she wouldn't give me anything too hard. I was wrong, she asked me to turn into something that slithers. To amuse her, I shifted into a snake, only to have her go pale, scream and run the wrong way.
By then I was getting low on calmness. So I pretty much decided for her, a lion and told her to hop on. It didn't take us too, too long to get home and Sunny went to her room right after that.
I found Chael and was starting to tell her what happened when I noticed that our two babies are now children, I'll take pics later. Menolly is as happy and energetic as ever and Eros seems really reserved, but with his sister he is very sharing and kind. I know he'll watch out for her when I cannot. I wanted to say something like 'thats my boy' but I just didn't.
Eros has the power to mane inanimate objects move, Menolly couldn't do that too and it only seemed to upset her for moments. Eros made her halo move and that made her even happier. She started bouncing on the bed and it was all well and good until Eros fell and almost hit the floor.
We then took them down stairs to feed them. I left them down there with Chael and went up to talk to Sunny again. Knocking on her door, I could hear crying but I was also determined to show her the proper way to act. When she let me in, we talked about her fear of snakes and without thinking, I suggested we get her a mongoose. I really, really should have talked to Chael first, but it was making her happy so I ran with it.
Sunny and I came down in time to see Chael running to the living room. Eros was on the floor and Menolly was distressed. Chael took Eros to his room and I kept Menolly and Sunny to get them fed. Menolly did NOT like having her brother taken away from her and she showed signs of being distressed a lot longer then she had in the past.
She started to fall asleep after being fed so I picked her up and took her to her and Eros's room and traded with Chael. Putting the sleeping Menolly next to her brother, I shifted into a cat and laid on the foot of the bed. It was only for practice but I discovered something very...well I am not sure what to call it just yet.
Eros woke up then Menolly. She reached out to pet me and the strain I felt in keeping the cat form dropped. I felt just as comfortable as I did in lion or dog form. I know Menolly's power, she has the power to strengthen other pae's powers, I am sure of it.
This disturbs me because I am afraid someone might find out and try and take her as some sort of power boosting weapon. Hopefully I'll be able to find Hi and ask for his advice again. As an Elder, he should be able to tell me if I am overreacting of I have a valid concern.

A small, cottonball - like cloud can be seen puttering down from the sky, a gift for Kurt nestled ontop of it's soft whiteness. As it lands gently on the ground, the cloud dissipates, leaving the gift behind.

Hi pretty much confrimed that I was overreacting and put this more in perspective. I went away from talking with him feeling much better. Coming home, it appeared I had come right when Menolly, Sunny and Eros started a game. That meant they would be having fun while Chael and I talked some. She was just as worried as I was, and I think what Hi said might have calmed her as well.
There was this odd earthquake, Chael was fine and I worried strongly for our children. Going into the back hall way, I called for them and was relieved when each of them came. Menolly and Eros looked just fine, it was Sunny that seemed to be troubled. So, after telling them what happened and suggesting they go to their mother, I had another talk with Sunny.
Hearing voices was her power, and Menolly's caused her great pain. Sunny, being the sweet loving child that she was, said she didn't want Menolly to have to stop hugging her and understood that we all had to work with her and with Menolly. What bothered me was that Sunny said the voices left her alone when she was sleeping and when she was happy. I can't go anywhere but to wonder if being hugged by her baby sister and being with us didn't make her happy. Perhaps I was overreading it but I know that I'll have to try and teach Sunny to make the voices go away by will and teach Menolly to not use her power unless she means to.
By the time we got to where Chael and the youngest kids were, they were running out the door and Sunny followed. They were playing where we could see them, so Chael and I were able to relax some and just get a chance to talk. Our lives were so different from how they had been before we met. Fate must love us, I believe. I we did what I concidered flirting a bit, hugging and a kiss on the cheek and that light like.
When Menolly got hurt trying to climb after her sister, we broke up and went to tend to the children. It was them first, and I wouldn't put them any other way. Chael knew I loved her, and that we must protect our family.
She took Menolly inside, Eros following, and I retreived Sunny from the tree. It was so cute when she fell asleep in my arms. I put her straight to bed before checking on how Menolly was. I got there too late and my very capable wife had already put them to bed. Once again, we were alone with our children asleep. Things started out much like they had before, only this time, somethings changed. First, she got me by V-day present early, a very neat plushie that I treasure because it was givin to be by her. Also a little fairy came in, talked about Chael and I being chosen then putting her hand's on Chael's bellie, she says that my wife will bare the next generation. This was something big, but neither of us were probably thinking anything about that. I marvoled at the idea of having more children, and the fact that Chael was now round with pregnacy before my eyes. She, was very unsure and sounded upset. I am not sure if thats how she really felt but she then fainted on me and that wonder was thrown away in my care for her health. You think I would have ecpetcted it, but I only half-way did. I was hoping since she knew she was pregnate, that we wouldn't have a repate of last time.
I did manage to save her from harming herself and got her to bed. After she was tucked in, I begain to think seriously on this. I missed the signs that Sunny was coming until she was close enough to see us. I really think we need to talk to her again about her habits.... Anyway, she asked and I told her she was going to be a big sister to more siblings. She said that so long as Chael was okay, then she was okay with it as well. Then she asked how it happened. The only answer I could give was 'magic'. I wondered if Chael had gotten pregnate that time we were inturpted and if the fae just changed the unborn somehow or what, but I wasn't going to share that with a toddler.
After talking about what magic was, Sunny made it known that she also wanted time by herself, when I told her we'd need her help. I really hope we can count on her when the time comes for Sunny to give birht, thats not something the children need to see, its a beautiful thing to behold, but the children aren't old enough to really know that stuff yet.
Now I sit beside the love of my life, just waiting for the next thing to happen, and hoping that with her increadable strenght, and my own, we can weather this completely coming out only better. Eros and Menolly should take this well, I hope they do.

Too much to say
There has just been too much going on for me to write about, so I'll have to summaries.
Menolly really did not take the separation idea too well, but acting like a good child, went to her own room by herself. Eros behaved well to the news.
Menolly's behavior was only an act, we woke in the morning to find her gone! She ranway during the night and no matter how hard I tried, I could not find her, I think I am coming down with a cold or something. After worrying most of the day, it was Eros that brought his twin sister back. Menolly was asleep in Ra's arms with Eros walking besides.
When I touched her, my cold was not strong enough to fend off my sense of smell with her power adding to mine. I did not mean too, but I am glad I did, there were not one, but three sperate male smells on her. When I can smell right again, I am going to track each of them down and make sure they never come near her again!
After talking with Ra for a bit, he left and I find out that Sunny left too! Are they trying to turn their father gray? Before I could go out and find her, I spoke to Sebell and Aurora. Getting distracted by them, I ended up spending some bonding time with my two youngest children before finally leaving.
Sunny finds me, and I find out that she has a stalker! This 'Tris' will pay dearly for coming near my child! If it takes me days, I will find them all, and they well learn well to stay away from my family.
None of my babies are ready to understand what love is, but they are old enough to be fooled by its imitations.

What family?
Journal, so much as happened since I picked you up last. Since I left you in Cheal's room and have just be able to really move around the house, I was not able to up date you until now.
Tristen came walking right into my hands, and I would have been able to dispose of him easily if it hadn't be for Aurora. Yet another of my daughters has turned on me. She wouldn't go inside at first, I didn't want to show her what I was going to do to the light pink fae.
Aurora seemed to be playing the good daughter, only to have alerted her mother. Neither of them have any trust in me or my judgment, for Cheal comes out with a arrow pointed at me. She starts yelling and Sunny comes out upset for him. She did not jump to his aid, proving my point.
Tristen finally ran off, as did I. Being sick and having everyone in your family, minus your two sons disrespecting and not trusting you is not a great combination.
I was feeling sicker by the minute, my heart and body. I lost track of how long I was wondering around disoriented because of my loss of smell and the fuzziness in my head. I did find Tristen and warned him not to go near my child. Then I was off again.
Ra found me, and forced me to return to Cheal's home. Thats not where I belong, they don't love me but would he listen? Nope. Even there, I tried to escape and didn't want anything to do with them. Cheal said she was sorry; however, I don't think our marriage will ever be the same.
I had another argument with Sunny. Now, I refuse to believe I ever called her 'daughter' she isn't and I won't think of her like that again. Menolly, is my daughter by birth but is worse then Sunny in a way. She left and hasn't come home. No one seems to be worried about her, I know her, she'd go with anyone so long as she could touch them.
I don't know what to do anymore. Oh Guardians, won't you help you lost, angry, betrayed son?

Adora
I have not been to Cheal's home in a while, I did show up after a long absents but left again. I am still angry, I still don't believe I have a family. Well, thats how I felt before I met Adora.
I know the child is Tristans and Sunny's, she looks too much like them and has their scent on her. She stole my heart before I even know what hit me. She was such a sweet child, and it was a lot of fun to play with her.
Yes, I disowned Sunny, but I still feel like a proud Grandpa. Guardians, what do I do? How do I let go of all that hate and try to get back into my family?

I still don't know what to do. I am not angry anymore, just empty. Thats what happened when anger concumes you, when it finally dies, your left with little if any feeling beside the numbness that is what is left of your defence against the fires from completely eating you up. I think I am just going to go home, thats right and I am talking about the one I always called 'Cheal's home.' It is mine too, I reconise that now, for as long as she'll keep me.

Powers and behaviors
I didn't realize it for a while, because the canine form was the one I used the most, but something changed. The first time I tried to shift into a panther, it didn't work. I think I spent the whole day trying to go into any form I could think of, nothing worked. The whole night I yelled and cursed whatever being did this to me, it wasn't right! I had a power that I loved and now I am reduced to nothing more than a domesticated dog. Not completely domesticated, I am civil but it seems I have lost part of my grip; the canine mind pulls at me oddly. It might be harder to keep myself in this limited form then it was with the deadly animals I used to take the form of. Its almost as if that part of me hasn't been tamed yet.
Babies, things change again
I met a young woman, Sy, she was eating about the fridge in a way I rarely see others do. We talked for a while before dissolving into a food fight like children. The fun was interrupted by a stork, yes of all things it was a stork, in its beak were two screaming children.
I think I have seen it all, from eggs to live births to now stork delivered. She didn't know about doing anything that would create a child, though the party who knew? Maybe one doesn't need a mate for kids, but it was a better idea considering now she has to care for two children on her own. I did what I could to help her with Adamm and Naomi, names she came up with on her own. It took away but the babies broke her stance that they weren't hers, I think they really grew on her. We'll see how she handles it from here on out.
