Malik looked over at his wife, and raised a brow...then turned over to Isle.
"Isle...do you recall any instances of a younger elf getting the moon elven eyes at a time later then at birth?"
Asking Isle of course becuase well...she'd been on the plane during Piper's absence, she might have sene or heard of something like that before Piper had come back.

He smiled at his son, tickling a little to get a happier reaction out of the boy. "That's good, little rocks are better than big ones in this case now isn't it?" Though a frown at the boy whimpered and Sevilin merely kept at those soothing motions he had learned, then he shook his head. "You know better than to yell at anyone. You let me deal with Zahara, alright? That's something for grown ups to do, not something for you to worry about okay? Promise me?"
Though the child moved on to happier things...which was good and Sevilin followed suit because the boy needed the distraction. "A week huh? Well then you and me have to start you learning on helping your magic get controlled faster now don't we? And yes, I know he can. Some elves can do that."
Malik merely got the same look back. Well wasn't thus fun? Scrutinizing thier son for something that was possibly transferred in genes and was showing up later than when they normally manifested. Which she could consider worrisome, yes. But then again any mother could find evil in any situation when thier children were concerned.
He blinked and then gave a rub at his eyes. Apparently they were the talk of the hour and he wasn't so happy right now because of that...usually when they were all serious like this it meant that something was wrong. "What's wrong with my eyes?" Frown and little worried tone.
"Not purebloods. Straight moon elves are born with thier gold already formed in thier eyes. And even duel blooded I'm not to sure on. I remember Pip being born with her gold already. But more reflector pigments can come to light, no pun intended, with age. I suppose there may be some bridge elves who may have experienced it...but none I've heard of personally. Kieran may have something in his journals." Because Kieran usually had everything in his journals.

"I was born with my slashes too. All my friends were too..." She had been watching the whole thing rather quietly but now she piped up. "Malikhai's eyes aren't funny. They're pretty."
Zykariel gave the wanted reaction and giggled then settled down in his father lap, splayed out in his arms. "I like little rocks much better though i still didn't swallow none." He frowned as he was basically told to leave her alone and let Daddy deal with her. Heaving a sigh he nodded. "Promise."
And then once again onto happier topics. "Yup, 'cause I don't wnat to hurt anyone anymores, 'specially not my teacher. He might not teach me anymore." Then a thought and he tilted his head. "I gotta get pearls. Do you know where I can find them or how to make them Daddy?"

"Nothing's wrong with them. The reason things seem blurry to you may be becuase you got the gold flecks like mom, isle and your aunt do. but they had thiers at birth, yours seem to be developing now."
A slight grin.
"apparently poor old dad is the only one with just one color in his eyes."
mussing his son's hair a bit.
"And no one is going to get hurt. the arena is becuase it's a much bigger area, and, you can use magic in there without worrying aobut hurting anyone if something goes bad. that's part of learning it...your bound to make mistakes."

Piper rolled her eyes chuckling lightly at her husband's semi-dramatics. Please...you could barely see those tiny tiny slivers...had to stare at the boy for a bit of time to even notice. "Genetics, how fun..." Though she knew that that would be a particularly annoying thing for the boy most likely. After all, didn't that mean his eyes would be even more overly sensitive than they already were to anything really above firelight and magically produced light? Great, another thing to throw on the things a mother could worry about. Amazing how much she'd grown up in that respect. "Oh don't be sad love, I adore your overly plain eyes."
He gave a giggle as his father messed with his hair, it wasn't brushed or anything so it wasn't such a bad thing. Usually he'd fuss a little but not this time. "So what's that mean?" Malikhai just knew that mommy had really pretty eyes because they were all different colors. Though attention was diverted to a new topic and he followed right along. "Grampa says that mistakes are like roots. You gotta put some down before you can stay tall and upright at the same time." Not that he totally understood what that meant, but it did seem to makes sense.

"It means that your eyes can catch and hold light....mom can explain it better than me. or grandpa has a journal on it I'm sure. and your right, mistakes are like roots. You have to learn teh right way to do it, but you don't know what right till you try it a few ways."
Though a look at Arthur.
"Off with you. Isle can come down there and beat you up when she's feeling less lethargic."
A slight chuckle at that.
"Maybe if you do a good job, in a few more weeks, you'll get your third shot at me."

"Oh." Okay, so his eyes could do something neat that he could ask mommy on questions. Okay, comprehended. "I can do that." Yes he could do this proverbial root thing. Sounded easy enough. Hey he was just happy to be able to start doing magic things next week. Made him happy inside.
"Father has journals on everything. Probably three..." Tapping her fingers on the table lightly, and giving a little shake of her head as Malik went about oddly encouraging Arthur in that way he did. But her eyes turned back to Malikhai. "Come here you." Waiting for the boy to slip down from his father's lap and toddle over to her, where she took up the brush he had brought down earlier and took to brushing that horribly tangled hair of his. Though she gave a chuckle and a look to Arthur as well. "Careful Arthur, she only comes off all sweet and fragile." Malik had learned that nicely...when Isleandra had pushed him down the side of an icy mountain with no warning.
Isleandra gave a little chuckle from where she sat. "Oh come now, I wouldn't beat him...maybe rough him up a little but I wouldn't beat the snot out of him at all. Of course I may play helpless for a while, but who knows..."

"Wait a second, you'd take it easy on him, but you'll push me down a mountainside? it's becuase I'm blue, and Piper got me first, isn't it."
A slight smirk before finishing breakfast, and looking to his son.
"don't forget you have responsibility now. that new..Draithix? that's the right term I think...is yours. you need to make sure it stays fed, has plenty to drink and doesn't deficate all over my house."

"Yes Malik, that's exactly right. If I can't have you then she can't either. All the blue should be mine." Giving a little laugh and smile to the drow, indeed feeling a little bit better now though she still didn't feel like moving too much. Which worked for her. "Besides, you had fun." And he had had fun...well when he starting chasing the girls around and taking pleasure in shoving them down the same icy mountain sides.
He let his mother finish his hair and clip his bandana on just the way he liked it, fixing his color and everything before shaking his head some to his father. Nuh uh, that one's Lharika's. I'm in charge of the eggs. We gotta build a pen for them right now so nothing gets to them but they can be used to outside. Like mommy's horses." A little sigh. "Mine hasn't hatched yet." But oh he wished it would. "But don't worry daddy when they do hatch, I'll take really good care of them, you'll see." Giving that oh so confident grin he had learned from his father, and a rub at his eyes.
"Right...have that to do, have Arthur to take care of...why is it always on the days that you want to laze about, you always have more than enough to do and need to get done?" She had some horses to train to tack and such today as well...seeing as she'd been slacking on that a little lately. It was hard balancing family and work sometimes, even if work was right outside. Thus a look to Malik. "Are you coveting away to work today?" She didn't like it when he up and disappeared into one of those places he coveted away in without notice so it was just best to ask.

Lharika nodded. "Yup, he's all mine. But don't worry Malik, they aren't messy creatures at all. Very tidy actually which is why Daddy Kieran let me have one. Good companions too." She kicked her feet for a moment and then looked at Malikhai. "We can't do that by ourselves. It requires sharp objects and strong hands." She looked down at her own. "I don't think mine are strong enough."

Arthur sighed lightly and shook his head, Malik always had to find a way to make fun of him but he didn't care it was only a joke, so he checked lightly and leaned back in his seat as the drow said he could probably get another shot at him if he worked hard enough. "Well I hope I can, it would be great to fight you again and hopefully I will come out as the victor this time." He had high hopes that he would get back at Malik, but right now he needed to focus on training. Though he had to chuckle a little as he looked over at Piper. "Well I know for a fact she is well trained in using a sword, after all she wouldn't be carrying one if she didn't know how to use it so I'll be careful." Though his gazed traveled over to the surface elf sitting in the chair and grinned. "I would like to see you try Rainsong." Again another small burst of laughter as he got up and wandered over to her, leaning on the table for a second with a smile. "Alright I'll get going Malik, I'll even take Isle to so she can see the place." Slowly he got off the table and reached out grabbing her hand softly then slowly pulled her out of the chair, once Isle was standing Arthur waited as she got herself ready to start walking and even held onto his arm for support; so once she was ready they were off to the arena without any hesitation, though they had to walk slow a little so Isle wouldn't fall.

"Oh joy more tour in the places that are forbidden to little elves." Piper was right though, she was slightly playing weak and fragile...it was just fun sometimes now wasn't it? Indeed. But she let Arthur help her up and then walk...at least that lizard feeling was going away.
Piper held up a finger. "Quite the contrary, I've carried a sword before without knowing how to use it. Sometimes show is good enough. Shaking her head as they walked away,Piper gave somewhat of a chuckle. "Oh he does not know what he is getting into with her..." And that was in all aspects. And then a glance at Lharika. "Don't worry, you'll have more than enough help."

((Could of sworn I did one for him...))
"Shellfish...or other people. They're easy enough to get." A look down at the boy who was more or less splayed out in his arms and going through a nice gambit of emotions. Though Sevilin wished he wasn't he was too young for that. "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll catch on quick and then you'll have no more problems. But it will take time."
Though he frowned a little, and had to ask a question even if he didn't want to. "Would you be happy if Zahara didn't live with us?"

Arthur chuckled and shook his head a little as they walked together. "Don't worry about it, if anything pops out to get you I'm here to protect you." Of course Arthur was fooling around, Malik is smart enough to keep whatever he had stashed away around here locked and with no way of getting out. So they walked as fast as they can since Isle still felt like a lizard so Arthur kept the both of them at a nice even pace so she didn't fall, even when they were going down stairs he helped her with one step at a time. After a couple of moments Arthur and Isle had finally reached the arena. "Well here we are..." He said and opened the door before helping Isle inside. Once they were in Arthur paused for a moment to look around before looking down at the elf beside him. "Are you okay to walk around? If not I can help you into the seats that circle the arena." Well might as well help her if she still can't move, but if she can then bonus points for her really he didn't mind.
