He merely got a raised eyebrow. Saving her life? Okay she didn't think her life was in danger with her merely sitting in the dinning room eating a snack and laughing over a sexually frustrated Galesen...but okay, she'd merely buy it. "Uh huh..." Though oh that spark of trouble in her eyes as he mentioned that she could have something. "Really now...how sweet." But another giggle. "Good luck tearing daddy away from his work and keeping Kieran in line." Lateef was probably more of a workaholic than Malik some days. "Hm...picking something may take me a few hours or so...you've given the option thus I'm going to rove and inspect over everything in here."
Piper was merely lounging on the bed, doing nothing in particular than drinking. She hadn't done that in a while, she was allowed. Though a look to nowhere in particular at the sound of Malik's voice in her head as she was sipping from her glass at that moment. "Let me guess...I don't really want to know and you would prefer that I didn't?" What with the way Zahara was these days...could be any number of things.

I think you'd find it excruciatingly funny until the end part and potenial conflict. Would you like to hear it?
Though a smirk at her.
"You have about..thirty minutes this time. then I believe Piper wants my attention. if you don't find anything in that time, we can come back."

"Probably more so all liquored up. I suggest you only tell me if you honestly thing I'll get a kick out of it without worrying about the repercussions."
"Now any man knows a woman cannot do quality shopping in a half hour." Smirking right back at him. She was always ready with something to say back wasn't she? But walking over to him she clapped him on the back in that friendly personable way that Isleandra did things. "How about we just come back tomorrow since you insist on watching me like I'm going to steal something, hm? As you said, Piper wants your attention and I'm getting some reverie soon myself and have to check in on Lharika before that and what not. Have had quite the day after all."

Of course at that point Malik recited the entire little event with Arthur in the kitchen...hey couldn't help it.
But Zahara went after arthur, I assume for her...needs...and didn't think it would be wise to give Isle the chance to walk in on them
But a smirk to Isle.
"It's not that. it's because some of these things bite back. Or might try to bond with you, that's all. Not everything I keep is necessarily nice to someone just wanting to touch it. But alright, we'll come back tomorrow then."

Okay she'd admit, it had her chuckling. No it didn't surprise her that he played along...anything to torture Arthur she was sure. She was also sure that he would make that one of his little past times in the days to come. "Or are you really just trying to make sure they don't get any time alone too long? Seeing as you don't want Isle near him." He was an odd little drow sometimes. But back to her wine which she was throughly enjoying.
"Kieran was right...don't touch anything if you don't know what it is or what it does completely. Very good advice on his part. But who needs that when I have you to take care of me." Ever joking but turning on her heel and walking out, heading back the way they came, of course waiting for him should she need him for some security purpose. "It's a date then."

It didn't take too long to put the finishing touches on the necklace and as he was working, Lharika thought she heard Isle's voice coming from the hallway. She got that funny feeling in the pit of her tummy, the one that told her she was about to get into trouble and glanced around. Eyeing Broog for a moment, she crept to the doorway and looked out. Sure enough Malik and Isle were disappearing around a corner. What were they doing down here? Malik should be upstairs with Malikhai and Piper! But they were heading the opposite way and hadn't seen her. She sighed in relief but it was short lived. She had to do something. Turning back she caught the telltale gleam of sparklies and stopped. "It's perfect Broog! Thank you!" Racing over she threw herself at his legs and hugged him tightly. "Would you hold onto it for me? I've got to go...I'll be back though, promise!"
Without waiting for an answer she skipped off out of the room and tippy toed through the hall upstairs until she ran into the dining room and plopped at the table, folding her hands innocently as though she'd been there all along.
"Thanks..." Don't say Sevilin... "Arthur." Zahara gently disentangled herself from Arthur's pale body and pulled back running her fingers through her hair. She was satisfied where it counted but nowhere near happy. The little improvements and changes she had made had helped to trick herself into believing the one she wanted was there but only her body was fooled and that only into feeling the satisfaction Arthur had been able to give. Her body and soul were still yearning. She glanced at the surface elf for a moment and rolled her eyes as she donned her clothes. He always passed out after sex, it was a foregone conclusion really. Covering the elf with a blanket, she headed for the kitchen to grab some food. He had given her ultimately what she needed but it wasn't enough. Almost unwelcomingly her conversation with Sevilin flitted through her mind while she was on autopilot, making a sandwich and then heading up to her room. So Zykariel wanted her back? He would have to wait. She needed a few days still.
Zykariel lay there quietly for a long time, just staring. He couldn't reverie and finally he got up and headed into Daddy's room. But the bed was empty and after a few minutes of deep listening, he realized he was downstairs. Probably working. Zykariel didn't want to disturb him and he doubted his father would mind if he used his bed. Just for a few minutes. Crawling in between the covers, the little boy snuggled down with Rawr and Nym and imagined that there was another warm body lying next to him. He didn't dare think of two. In minutes he was reliving his past but even that chose to give him no peace. He sat straight up an hour or two later and started screaming at the top of his lungs.

Didn't take Sevilin but two seconds to get up those stares at the first syllable of that boy's screams, snatching him up out of the bed...not registering that he was in his own room...checking the boy over immediately for anything wrong. Well...nothing physical. "Zykariel, what's the matter?" Sitting on the bed and setting the boy in his lap, soothingly petting at his hair. For now, his work lay forgotten down on his desk...after all, Zykariel was more important.

He was crying and shaking badly before he buried his face in his father's chest and sobbed it out. "Daddy, I didn't know I had that memory! It was really really bad. I was blind and all I could hear were these loud noises and the walls were closing in on me and I was in this really really tight space. I don't ever wanna go back there, okay?"

Okay...Sevilin was a little lost there and didn't care to really filter through what the boy may of gone through to produce that but the good thing was that the boy was okay. Yup, that was the important part. "Alright...you don't ever have to go back there." Wherever there was...someplace he wasn't too concerned with right now.
Though yes it was easy to see that Sevilin was quite shaken up. He didn't like the sound of children screaming at all, made his blood run cold. More so when he knew it was his son. But let's divert the child's attention shall we? "Why aren't you in your own bed?"

Sevilin's voice calmed him down and he sighed with relief. "Good. I didn't like it at all. I wonder where that memory came from..." He blinked for a moment and then looked up to meet his father's eyes. "Oh, I couldn't reverie and I didn't want to bother you. I know I have too much lately so I thought I could if I slept in your bed. Do you mind Daddy?"

He shook his head. "You haven't been a bother to me." Had to reassure the child, after all he didn't want him to think that he was annoyed with him. And then a shake of his head. "I don't mind...if you want to reverie in my bed then you can. That's perfectly okay." Petting through the child's hair then rubbing at his back. It was hard balancing work and Zykariel. "I know I'm working a lot....I can't possibly be any fun right now." He breifly considered asking the boy if he wanted to stay at Twilight foe a few days...that would indeed give Sevilin concentration, but it would also allow the boy to be around Zahara if he wanted without her being odd about Sevilin to be around.

Well he liked hearing that. Sometimes just knowing that he was in Daddy's bed was enough to put him right out. It just depended on the night really. Other times he actually needed a body in bed with him. "It's okay Daddy, I know you gotta work to keep Malikhai safe and stuff. I don't mind when you work but do you have a whole lot more to do?"

Hm how did he want to answer that. "I'm trying to finish it all tonight." Meaning that he did have a lot he was just trying to get it all done and over with and be good at the same time. Nodding lightly just because and another pet at the child's hair, moving him from his lap and back to the bet, laying the boy back. "What if I promised that once I'm done we'll go do something together? Anything you want...does that make up for it?" This kid could tell him to set himself on fire and he would probably do it.

Zykariel snuggled down beneath the covers and situated himself once again, tucking Rawr under with him and calling out for Nym. The ferret had either elected to sleep in his bed still or gone scampering off when he had begun screaming. "Well I guess..anything?" He smiled tentatively unsure of how Daddy would take his suggestion. "Would you go riding with me? Or swimming. I haven't been to the lake in a long, long time." And he always went with Zara, never Daddy.

Damn it, why the activities that Sevilin couldn't relate to or couldn't do? The boy was definately more out and open like his mother was to such things. But Sevilin had said anything. "I suppose we could...but you have to teach me things. Horses and me don't get along and I can't swim very well...so you'd have to help me out." Sure...Sevilin absolutely detested bodies of water, as well as horses, but he wasn't going to say no to the boy. A momentary distraction as he watched Nym pop out from under the pillow he had been hinding under.
