Ro sighed and set her tea cup down. Now seemed like a good time to go. She wrote another note... telling Az to stay THERE and just wait for her to come back this time. Lilah needed him more than she did... and at least he already had rooms for them once she got a new place to live. She headed out the door.. intent on finding that perfect spot for her new home.

"Me?" Azaroth gave her a disbelieving look. "...How?"
"I don't know, I honestly don't know," Lilah sighed. "I'm sorry Azaroth, this is my fault...I know I don't belong here, that I'm not of this world. I know that you have your own life here, your own problems, and I know that you've changed..." she struggled looking for the right words. "But even though I knew these things, accepted them..."
"Yes?" Azaroth asked quietly trying to maintain some semblance of control as he continued to wonder how this could have happened. The moment she'd said he was the father he'd checked on the children himself and was shocked to see that they did indeed carry his energy as well as Lilah's...
"Well...I always wanted to be a mother and in my mind it was always with you," Lilah finished quietly. "And I'm sorry, I know this is just one more problem for you to deal with..." she said shakily. "But I want my children to live. You don't have to worry about, myself here will take care of them, I'll make sure of it..."
"Woah, Lilah, slow down," Azaroth taking her shoulders gently. "Calm down, come inside. Don't worry, of course the children will live. We'll figure it out..."

Ro sighed as she walked. She couldn't find a place to live at all and she was getting frustrated. She couldn't stay with Az when he had Lilah and his new kids to deal with.. she refused to do that to herself. Growling she apparated to her old house and walked around it. She could fix this... it would be a temporary place since she wouldn't make the kids live here again.

Azaroth walked Lilah inside, assuring her the children would be fine, that he and Delilah would work it out somehow.
"I'm so sorry to put you through this, Azaroth," Lilah said again. "I know it's selfish to want to keep them when I won't ever really be here for them and I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, it's just you were going through so much and I so wanted you to find happiness on your own..."
"You shouldn't be responsible for my happiness, Lilah," Azaroth paused and frowned seeing another note in the main room. "Oh no..."

Ro whipped out her wand and started going around the house fixing things. She sniffed then shook her head.. she wasn't going to break down now. Anyone could show up... and she didn't want to show anymore weakness.

"What is it?" Lilah squeaked nervously.
"Not you," Azaroth assured her, sitting her down in a chair before snatching up the note and reading it. No, No, NO! Rowena, not again...
"What is it?"
"Rowena's run off again," Azaroth muttered. "And my sentries are too distracted by their little siblings..."
"Azaroth, your children are not an army, despite their size..." Lilah gave him a consoling smile. "Now what happened."
"Ro's gone off to look for a new house, this time she's told me not to go looking for her..."

Ro frowned as she paused and observed the damage that she still had to fix. She wasn't sure she had the energy since she was now bordering on 24+ hours of being awake.. and stressed. She sat a moment to take a quick rest and then she would finish. Once she fixed everything she could collapse in her bed.

"This time?" Lilah echoed.
"She's already run off once today..." Azaroth said pacing the floor. "She hasn't rested yet either."
"Azaroth," Lilah shook her head. "Why are you still here?"
Azaroth paused mid-step, "She told me not to come. Besides," he gave her a weak smile, "There's your," he stopped and corrected himself. "Our children to worry about."
"My children are safe within me and that's where they'll be for quite some time," Lilah said quietly. "Meanwhile the woman you love is out there alone..." She gave him a small smile in response to his look of shock, "You go where you are needed. I'm fine. Rowena isn't despite what she says..."

((*giggles* I like Lilah... I think if Ro let herself she would too but ah well... Ro's stubborn xd ))
Ro stood up again and continued fixing the house. She knew she was seriously depleting her magic but right now she just really needed another place to live. She'd let Synne and Erian stay with Az until she made a new house but Ro couldn't stay there... she honestly didn't know what she had been thinking when she had agreed. She was almost done and could feel herself wavering a bit... so she headed to her bedroom so she didn't have to worry about collapsing on the floor once she was done.

Azaroth glanced between the note and the door before looking back at Lilah. "You will be here when I return," he made the statement plainly and clearly. "We're not done talking about this..."
"Yes, of course," Lilah said nudging him towards the door herself. "Go on now."
Azaroth nodded, "Thank you, Lilah." As soon as he was out the door he took himself back to where he and Ro had last been, and was shocked to see some semblance of her house reconstructed in the spot. All he could think about was the amount of magic she must have used and how exhausted she must have been even before she started. Without a thought he rushed in looking for her.

Ro, who was sitting on her bed at the moment, slowed the magic she was pouring out and tilted her head "Oh bugger..." Az was here... now she couldn't collapse... though she wasn't sure she'd be able to prevent it this time. Really.. didn't he and Lilah have more to talk about? What was he doing here?

"Ro?" he called rushing through the house, sighing in relief when he finally saw her. "Rowena?" he approached her cautiously. "What are you doing?"

She sighed and half-glared "I'm fixing the house.. what does it look like?" Trying to figure out a way to get him to leave before everything caught up with her.

"Why did you leave again?" Azaroth asked quietly as he knelt beside her.

"I only went back so you would talk with Lilah.. did you?" She glanced at him curiously
