Welcome to Gaia! ::

"If I forgot that shop your aunt might very well kill me!" Torvil laughed a bit and smiled at his wife, reaching out and touching her hand, rubbing the back of it with his fingertips. "Noon works perfectly, it gives us time to get ready and get things all set up back here."

He let his hand move gently up her hand to her shoulder, rubbing the muscle there lightly as he chuckled into the receiver.

"Besides, I've been there a few other times since we met there, I had to rebuild my library somehow."

Torvil closed the phone slowly and took a few deep breaths before turning his eyes to his wife and smiling a little. "We will work on that now, but first, I think a change of clothes for the both of us is in order."

He stood slowly and shot a quick glance at the clock, noting that it wasn't quite nine in the morning yet. The apartment would take time to be made ready, but Torvil could help with that a bit with his newly found powers.

Conjuration had it's advantages, even when it made his head throb like a someone had taken a sledgehammer to it.

Shaking his head slowly he smiled at his wife and leaned down, kissing her gently. "Besides, making it ready won't take very long, not with the two of us working together, and me using what I can conjure up with my powers."

Torvil laughed softly and kissed her again. "You know me, I will try my hardest not to end up on my butt out cold, then who will give Ren a piggy-back ride home?"

Torvil doubted that his daughter would even want her father to hug her, let alone give her a piggy-back ride, but it was a hope he held.

'Hope for the best, expect the worst' - that was the motto he lived by now.

Kissing her softly one more time, he brushed her cheek and gently took the cabbage into his hands and held it up between them. "Go shower and change love, I will start working and then we can switch off."

Torvil smiled and slowly started to tap into the latent energies that surrounded him and flowed within him. Holding the Cabbage close to his chest, he lifted his right hand and bit hard on his thumb, feeling his sharp teeth break skin, he held out his hand over the air, and as his blood hit the air and began to drip from his finger, it began to form into different shapes.

He kept his breathing even as a small Dragon and Sphinx servant appeared for him, and he slowly sank back into the couch sucking his thumb to staunch the bleeding. He stroked the cabbage with his uninjured hand, once he knew the bleeding was done, he turned to his servants and smiled.

"You two, I will need you to gather these things for me. Use whatever form of payment you can summon forth," Closing his eyes for a moment, he recited the list of things they needed to get the house ready, as well as an incantation to connect to his family horde.

Once he was done, he raised his marked hand and waved, watching his servants fly forth in the form of mist under the apartment door.

Once Torvil was energized once more, he stood up and brushed his uninjured fingers across the leaves of the cabbage. Moving about the room, he set about getting things cleaned up and cleared for the new additions to the room as well as what would probably end up filling their spare room.

Pacing the room once or twice he finally realized that he could be working on getting things set up for the items. Torvil slowly moved over to the coffee table and gently put down the cabbage. "Stay here, dad'll be right back."

Moving over to the couch and lifted it gently, getting it off the floor a few inches on his end he dragged it slowly away from the door, leaving a bit more space in the room.

Torvil chuckled and slowly lowered the couch's end to the floor and rolled his shoulders. "Just getting a bit more space for the room for when the deliveries come." He smiled and moved over to his wife, wrapping his arms around her hips and pulled her close to him. He cupped her chin in his hand and lifted it up toward him, and he leaned down, pressing his lips to hers.

He stood there for a few moments sharing a kiss with her before slowly pulling away and brushing a hand through her hair. "If you hear scratching at the door, open it, it's just my Astral Servants." He smiled and brushed her cheek with his un-blooded thumb.

"I believe it's my turn to hop in the shower and get changed, no?"

Torvil smiled softly and brushed her cheek, knowing that when she stood like that, that she demanded an answer now, and that was exactly what he was going to give her.

"You did, and I didn't. I only used a little of my power to make them, they are strong enough to bring what I asked them to bring, and smart enough to get it and pay using my family holdings that belong to us now." Torvil rested his forehead against hers.

"There is one benefit to this war, we inherited my family's holdings, at least what is left hidden in the nooks and crannies of the caverns. Getting to it ourselves would be impossible, what with the Dragons having taken over the complex. But my servants can fetch it easily and if they are destroyed then the energy is returned to me, no harm, no foul."

He slowly pulled back from Morgana and smiled, brushing her cheek and letting his fingers run down her chin. "So Ren will have a room when she gets home, we will just have to set it up."
