"Ah, yeah, lively is an understatement, sounds like my mother and my grandparents and one of my sisters." He grinned, this was going to be quite a day. Finally he reached the area where they all were, "Well isn't this a nice surprise?" He smiled a bit, figuring any moment after Tian was done greeting their grandfather, he'd be the next in the tussle, "So I was passing through and thought it might be a good time to say Hi." He gave a bit of a grin, and leaned over to Briallan, "Once I've really got their attention, I'll introduce you."

Briallan nodded and just looked at the gathering before them. "You're right... they're big!" She chuckled some and slightly seemed to move to hide behind him peering out at the large male amongst them. "Is that your father?? Or is her your Grandfather??" She glanced at him then back at the male with the green cloak.

Rakshi chuckled, "That's my grandfather. He and my grandmother are where most of the largeness comes from. My father isn't here at the moment. He might just pop up though, and he's where I get my coat from, the mane and tail are from my mother and grandmother." He was so happy to have her seeing them, he figured they'd likely enjoy meeting someone new and he was not going about things the way his mother had, so it was a little better, right? He worried some to himself, but then, he was a rather protective sort in his own way.

"Oh I think I see some of the resemblance." She smiled. "He's got a pretty large cloak.. I'll bet you guys use to try and play games with it when you were younger." She giggled lightly at he thought of a colt trying to trip up his grandfather with his own cloak.
Mera Spotted a familiar shape in the distance and nickered her greeting before parting from her mother to leave Tian there to Conerse. It'd been so long, she was happy to see her son was well.. and had apparently brought along a young mare with his return. "Rakshi.. It's been a while, You're well I presume?? And who is your charming little friend? She seems so shy hiding behind you. Common out dear I assure you we won't bite."

Meru smiled at Mera. We've been well. Basically Albert has been fretting wether to join a herd or not or stay loners. Though, frankly, i think he should just start one. There are enough of you all running around, that you basically are a herd. She giggled at the thought, and then watched as Mera turned her attention elsewhere, and found her fully-grown grandson. Why, Rakshi. How good it is to see you again. She could hardly keep herself from bounding over there and saying hi, but she did shiver with excitement.
Albert gave Tian a mock glare as she headbutted him, and shoved at her lightly with his shoulder. I would have thought you had grown out of the trait there, runt. He grinned, and reached forward to nibble on her mane. It is good to see you again.

"Oh you have no idea, but that was mostly my sister pretending to set it on fire because of being a dragon." His attention turned to his mother, "Hi mom. Yeah, well I did say I was going to go traveling for a bit, you know adventure, that kind of thing young stallions do." He grinned a little broadly, "This is Briallan." He motioned for Briallan to come forward, "On my travels I ran into her, and she accepted my invitation to come with me....and well, there's more news but I'll wait till everyone catches up." He smiled a bit sheepishly, "Is dad around anywhere? And what about Leila, wouldn't want them to miss out on this news."
At his grandmother's voice he smiled, "Hi Gran. Still as wiggle prone as ever I see." He smiled, oh the insanity that was his family, large as they all were, and how very interesting it was going to get when he informed them of his lifemating with the small doe that he had brought to meet them.

Briallan chuckled lightly but nearly hid under Rakshi when she noticed that the attention was starting to gather around them. She peered out at the two mares who had addressed him and gave a small shy smile. "Hello." Her voice came out every bit as sweet and dainty as she appeared to be as she slowly stepped more into view gaining a bit of courage from her new mate. "It's nice to meet you."
"It's nice to meet you dear. I'm Mera, Rakshi's mother if you couldn't tell." Merashik smiled warmly and nuzzled her son once more before looking at the mare and back to her son giving a slight knowing smile. She wasn't about to blurt out anything just yet. Turning her head, she looked to her father and daughter. "Looks like Rakshi's brought along a companion why don't you two join us and meet her hmm?"
Tian chuckled lightly at her grandfather. "Me? Never.. A lady might have to have a certain composure among strangers but family I can relax didn't you know?" She gave a small wink her Grandfather's way before looking to see what it was that her mother was going on about. "Looks like Rakshi has a girlfriend gramps.." She giggled lightly and with a form of grace and fluidity, she began making her way over to the other group.

"Daaad! Let's goooo!! I bet we're the last ones to show upp!" whined Leila as she trotted around her slow moving father. She still giggled a bit at how much taller she was compared to him, but he was still her father and she loved him very much. "Come onnn!" she giggled a little, then paused and cocked her ear to the wind to listen. She heard her family near. Just barely she could pick out their voices and knew for sure they were the last to arrive unless her aunts came. Giggling again, she squealed and moved around behind Sena, shoving her head against his rump to get him to move faster. It worked until she just couldn't stand it anymore and rushed ahead to greet her family. "MOMMA!!!! TIAANN!!! RAKSHIIII!" she shouted with glee as she ran ahead, still full of energy. "GRAMMA! GRAMPA! WHEEEE!" she exclaimed, galloping around the family once before settling down to nuzzle everyone in greeting. "WAIT! THERE'S SOMEONE NEW! Rakshi! Who's this?" she asked and giggled a little, barely giving her brother a chance to answer before introducing herself. "Hi! I'm Leila, Rakshi's other sister~ What's your name?" she asked with all the curiousity of a foal.
He laughed softly as Leila tried to hurry him. It wasn't in his nature to hurry, but he sped up when he felt her head against his rump. "Okay okay! I'm coming," he said and laughed again. Once their family was in sight, she rushed ahead to greet everyone while he came to greet Mera first. "Heh, sorry we're late." he asked and smiled softly, then turned to Rakshi and the small mare with him. "And who might this be, Rakshi?"

Rakshi heard his sister long before he saw her. Leila was always hyper, and a bit of a spaz, but that was his sister, Tian was still near their grandfarther but heading in the direction. He only hoped his sister's exuberance didn't make Briallan too skiddish.
He glanced over at her, and smiled warmly as Leila and his father came into view, and right over to see who he'd brought, "Hey dad." It had always been a little odd that when he grew up he looked down at his father, but that was just how things had gone, "As I was saying to Mom, this is Briallan, she's been traveling with me for a little while now...and well...like I said there's more news, but I'll wait till everyone's a bit closer." He smiled nervously at Briallan, blushing a bit, figuring everyone had figured out who the girl was already, but not necessarily to what extent. His family was smart like that, and it wasn't like they didn't listen to him when he stated things about what he was likely to do if he ever got a mate.

So many new faces all gathering around. He hadn't been kidding when he said his family was large and... rambunctious. "H-hi.. Pleased to meet you." She smiled and pressed herself against his side feeling a bit of comfort after doing so. Her tail had flagged in alarm when his sister Leila had approached unaccustomed to such an exciting welcome.
Mera chuckled lightly at her daughter. "Leila.. I see you've made it finally. Been well I hope? And hello Sena.. been keeping out of trouble?" She chuckled and greeted them both with a happy nuzzle. She gave a small chuckle and watched the little mare's reaction to her large family. "It's ok my dear.. we're always excited when we gather around one another." She smiled softly at the little mare.
Unable to contain her own excitement, she tosses her lady training to the wind and broke into a gallop, skidding to a halt by the group. "Rakshi.. did you bring a little girlfriend home for us all to meet?? We thought you catered to the stallions." She teased playfully as she trotted up to him and nuzzled him before peering at the tiny mare.

There was a rather irritated look to his sister at the commentary, "Just because there was a rash of Fillies around me because NO one was having boys in this area does not mean I liked stallions, I mean, I could figure you were into fillies yourself given you've yet to bring home any Stallion as a companion, Tian." He narrowed his eyes at his sister, the joke was so old, and just insulting, "Plus it's not like you weren't chasing any girl off when they got too close to me in your opinion." He snorted, that was one of those raw nerves he had, and Tian had a wonderful tendency to beat it with a stick.
He glanced at Briallan, and sighted at how excitable and loud his family was, "Well since you all are here, and close enough to hear me, Yes Briallan is my significant other, and I asked her to be my lifemate." He grinned happily once again, the irritation with his sister waning as he looked at the shy doe beside him, "So with that news, I figured I should come and tell you all." He was quite happy with the news, and being the only male his mother had, he felt much happier bringing home a lifemate rather than doing something like his parents had done. Though...there had been an interesting interlude previously.
There was an odd thought in his head all of a sudden, it had only taken once for his parents to have engendered children...what if he and Briallan had the same...He blinked at the oddly warm sensation in his heart at the thought of the little white doe bearing his children, then brushed it aside as something that wasn't likely to have happened yet.

Briallan stifled a small giggle and stepped out a bit more bravely. "He did... and I'd like to say that I accepted." She gave a small smile but still stayed close by Rakshi His family was just... something else entirely..
Mera Gave a delighted smile and stepped forward to nuzzle the new couple each at one at a time. "Congratulations, I couldn't be happier that you've found yourself such a pretty mate. I'm sure the two of you will be happy."
Tia laughed some. "I only jest.. besides.. I don't have to run home and tell everyone who I'm flirting with mother and grandfather are aware of some things I'm sure.. after all they seem to have eyes everywhere didn't you know?" She gave that cheeky grin that often said she was kidding once again. "OH! really?? She's so tiny.. and adorable!!!! Does this mean I;m going to be an auntie some time??" She chuckled and shuffled on her front hooves much like their grandmother when she's excited about something.

Leila finally settled after having greeted everyone, though she still pranced in place a little, tail swishing behind her. She giggled at the banter between her siblings; it was this that had entertained her when she was younger. She grinned at her mother and nodded. "Yes mama! Dad's a slow poke so it took us foreverrr!" she exaggerated as she nuzzled back.
She gasped a little, then squealed in happiness. "Yay! I have another sister!" she said and giggled, moving to nuzzle Briallan happily. "Hehe she's so little! But she's so pretty! Hehe I'm glad my brother brought you home, Briallan~ I really hope you'll like being part of our family!" She blinked and turned to look at Tian with wide eyes. "Aunt?! I wanna be an auntie! Rakshi, make me and Tia aunties!!" she said and giggled more, headbutting his shoulder a little.
Sena nickered a soft laugh. "Me? In trouble? Please, it's more like keeping Leila out of trouble," he laughed softly and nuzzled back before turning to Briallan. "I'm glad you and Rakshi found love. Now if only my daughters could do the same..." he sighed softly, then shook his head, sending his curly mane flying a little. "Though another part of me wants them to stay fillies forever," he chuckled, a light blush covering his cheeks. He wasn't quite the over protective father figure, but he still wanted what was best for his foals. He was genuinely glad Rakshi had found love and could only hope for the best for Tian and Leila.
He winced a little when Tian and Leila mentioned becoming aunties. "Oh my," he murmured. "That would make us grandparents, wouldn't it, Mera?" he smiled though, then turned to Meru and Albert. "And you would be great-grandparents, heh." It was a thought he hadn't considered much, nor would have thought about for a long time yet.

Albert smiled at Tian, and nuzzled her. Yes, he did bring a girlfriend it seems. At the announcement though, he had to chuckle. Apparently, more then a girlfriend. he was happy for his grandson. He knew the joy that came with having a lifemate. And of course, he knew that there were going to be some hardships too. But his family was going to continue to grow. He couldn't wait to see his great grandchildren. Especially with how cute the little filly is.
Meru nodded. Of course I'm still wiggly. It's who I am. she started hopping a bit more, and kicked her hooves like a foal when she heard the news. Another addition! she neighed happily, and made her way over to the mare, Albert shaking his head and following in his mates wake.

Rakshi turned about six shades of red when his sisters were pretty much asking him to make them aunts as soon as possible. Not that he wasn't up to the task or the idea, but it was embarrassing for his sisterss to request that as soon as possible, "I'm almost afraid that Briallan would pop carrying foals of mine." He couldn't help the thought, and hoping that his progeny wouldn't cause complications for such a small doe.
He leaned down and whispered to Briallan, "this is why I tend to travel a bit, my family, especially my sisters tend to embarrass me greatly." He gave her an awkward sort of smirk, "Yes, grand parents, great grandparents, and the line continues on, bring more knights and pretend dragons into the world." He grinned at Tian, "So, my next question is, when am I to introduce her to Aunt Emille, Aunt Damia, and Uncle Syuveil and all of my assorted cousins, or should we wait until she's officially with foal?" It was a little sarcastic, but he kind of did want to make sure his whole family knew about his mate. Wanting to be sure that things were as official as possible, a ceremony perhaps? His mind was going a mile a minute as the smile on his face grew broader and broader.
