The FourthTO LILY hey! i'm 18 you weren't even close... ----- Trip to the TidesWhen approached, Jamie stood, and he tried to look calm, but instead looked about ready to curl in on himself at any moment. Eyes slipped quickly from Lucas's arm to his face to down at the sand because if there was anything Jamie was, it was bad at making eye contact.
"I think so... I'm Jamie," he muttered. And then he was at a loss already. At least a familiar voice piped up from behind.
"L-Lily! Um... I like your shirt." It was almost a whisper, but at least there was a small, wobbly smile on his face. He knew having her along was a good idea.----- Full MoonThe message was one that made Jamie undeniably nervous. He'd go, there was no question in that, but it took him a long time to reply with a rather unenthusiastic:

Trip to the TidesLucas offered a crooked smile, glancing over to the girl that came bouncing along. Looking between the two of him, he shook his head to himself subtly. What kind of war was it that recruited kids? His heart felt heavy, but even so, he held out both of his hands - flesh and prosthetic alike. "Nice to meet you, Sunshine," his pale eyes rested on Lily before turning to Jamie, "and Buttercup. Seems like you two go together. I'm Lucas." It was probably clear from his rigid stance that he was expecting them to take his hands, and that they'd experience...whatever it was he'd had with Eve. That kinsmanship, that sense of family. "And I'm the werewolf." The drive to protect these two was already strong. It wasn't going to get any easier.

Full Moonshibrogane Should Clover stay home for this? I don't want to put her in danger. On one of Jamie's visits, when the full moon's encroachment was on everyone's mind, Eve wheeled to the table with a full teapot and a motherly smile. "Here," she said, "on the house this time. We have a big day ahead of us."

Full Moonshibrogane oh yikes totally already had plans, can we reschedule?? jk I don't do anything with my life, I'll be there "Oh s**t, you're old," Lily remarked coolly towards Lucas, her eyebrows rising above the edge of her shades. On prompting, she locked arms with the prosthetic, and all at once she felt that sensation of belonging, of home. She resisted the urge to bring it in for a full-on hug or start climbing his shoulders, given that he was the tallest thing around. What she needed was to keep it cool, nonchalant. It wasn't working. She put an arm around Jamie, like they might have really been siblings. When she squeezed his shoulder gently, she tried to pretend that it wasn't mostly for her own support. "How've you been?" Lily asked the both of them, hazel eyes peeking out from her bargain shades. "Anything new or exciting?"

Ocean TeaThe familiar, gentle clink of the teapot against the table, the equally familiar sound of Eve's voice... Jamie felt at ease enough that his eyes didn't open right away. When they did, they were calm, but that didn't stop his voice from wavering as he sat up straight to accept his gift.
"Thanks... your tea is the best." A short hesitation and then, "Hey, Eve? Um, do... do you think-" He bit his lip. "It'll be okay, right?"

Ocean Tea"I don't know," Eve replied. "I'm not going to lie to you, this will be dangerous. We're all worried." She scooted a bit behind him so she could massage a shoulder, and lovingly tease at his hair some -- a gesture that came to her as easily as it did with her flesh-and-blood son when he visited from Boston. "But we'll all take care of each other, and make it okay."

Trip to the Tides"Buttercup..." It was muttered under his breath, a look torn somewhere between confusion and flattery on his face. Jamie wasn't even sure himself. "Um... thanks? Nice to meet you, too." It was the best he could come up with to say. Before now, Jamie didn't have close enough friends for cute nicknames. Now he had what, two? Wait, make that three... corn puff, buttercup, and short stack. He was secretly starry-eyed.
Starry-eyed or not, though, he still waited on Lily to make the first move once Lucas offered his hands for what was becoming customary for them. Jamie knew he and Lucas would bond, but that didn't make him any less nervous.
If only he had Lily's energy, she shown so brightly.
Still, he went for the hand left over, the fleshy one, his slender, cold fingers curling around it in a rather normal handshake. Except y'know, it wasn't all that normal. Lily's arm was around him now and he stared up at Lucas with a familiarity and sudden comfort completely foreign to him on a normal day.
"I've been... p-pretty okay, actually," he admitted with a tiny smile.

Trip to the Tides"And you're a child, now that we've introduced ourselves..." Despite his words, Lucas grinned at Lily's cool indifference. If he hadn't raised a handful of teens already, he might have been injured. Even though it was his prosthetic, that warmth of familiarity and family reached him, and when Jamie did the same, his posture shifted; he relaxed, and the tension in his brow eased, friendlier, more open. He gently squeezed Jamie's hand with encouragement before letting him go. They were family, pack he dare say, but he still had presence of mind enough to not hug these two kids in relief that they were found. "That will never be something I get used to," he mused out loud, rubbing his hands together and stretching his prosthetic fingers after. "I didn't mean to impose on you guys, I just -- wanted to meet you. To know your faces. And to ask what Lady has told you about what's going on."
