[Zadia 8]
Ah, well, that made things easier. Keeping one hand on the heated kettle, Zadia set about getting the cups ready. She mixed the tea the same way her father had taught her; with care and just the right amount of honey. Her mother had a tendency to add too much of it at once, making the whole concoction overly sweet, but Zadia preferred to at least taste the tea.
Once everything was properly organized she cooled the kettle off with a small pop of magic, set it off to the side and carried the full tea cups over to the table. "Bland? It's hard to say, honestly. Their bakeries are nice, but on the whole it's boring compared to the food we have here." With a little smile, she settled herself into a seat and looked up to Lioe. "At least we have an advantage. We're settled in Zenner, which is the city that all the airships land in. A lot of foreigners come through the city so the food is a little more varied than other places in Belrea."
Lifting her glass, Zadia took a sip of her tea and thought on something else. Something she'd been pondering for a while. "So, what do you think about being a big brother?"

A rueful smile rose along his lips as he took his seat across from Zadia. Bland for others tended to be perfectly fine for him. Although, he was used the Tale's food. Could Belrea be too bland even for him? Then again, if it was as busy as Zadia said... That would take some getting used to. Bland would be welcome!
He paused mid-bite at Zadia's question, hovering a moment before finishing the chomp. He chewed slowly while he considered his answer. "I don't feel like one yet," he murmured with a shrug. "Do you.. like it?"

[Zadia 9]
Musing it over, Zadia took a bite of her food and imagined the infant she'd left behind. Marcella hadn't been more than a few weeks old when she'd left; still chubby and small. Zadia could still see little tufts of bright orange hair, just like Lioe's popping out of her blankets and when she wasn't sleeping little green eyes were taking in the world around her.
"She's cute." She answered finally, pausing long enough in her meal to look up. "It's...strange to have her here, but I'm not mad about it? It might not have been as odd if she were around when we were younger, but now it makes me wonder if this is how Padma and Ujana felt when we were born."

His eyes settled idly onto his wrap, looking at the details while his mind wandered along their conversation. "Not mad," he agreed. The thought of their half-sisters made him purse his lips. If that was the case... right. Things were sure to be a little unsteady once the new baby grew; but it was only one baby. "At least I had you and Isaia," he managed with a small smile, taking a sip of his tea. If nothing else, he always knew that he had them; even if they had driven him crazy on occasion."

[Zadia 10 / Fin]
Zadia smiled and reached across the table to briefly squeeze his hand with her own. "We've always got each other." As far as life would take them the triplets would always have one another; that much was fact. She lifted her tea cup once more and took a drink. With any luck Marcella would become a close member of the family and if not...well, it wasn't as if they weren't used to having some distance with sisters, now were they?
