(This is Caius and Aida. Having a moment with their capsules!)
Caius was rather sprawled out in his giant bed. He'd been working hard to find a new advisor in a short amount of time, since he and Aida's capsules had arrived, and he was glad he had found Dhenu; the man seemed up to the task for all the responsibilities he would need to handle. He knew Aida would not stop working even when their babies arrived, but he knew it would help for her not to have to focus on all of the palace matters in addition to the harems. It would be nice for her to have some free time with their children after all. After finding him, he'd made sure he'd had detailed tours of the palace, heaped his workload on him, which he seemed to take in stride rather well, and then sent him off to meet Aida for further planning. Between that, and all of his regular work of checking on his desert kingdom and making sure things were running smoothly everywhere, he had been pretty exhausted the past few days.
So right now he was flat on his back, barely having taken his boots and coat off before flopping into bed, with his eyes closed. He wasn't asleep yet, but it probably wouldn't be too long in coming.
Meeting with the new advisor had been interesting. Aida did not begrudge him his position in the least. There was plenty of work to be spread about, and honestly now that she had children to rear Aida needed to focus more on the harem and less on the palace. She could specialize and fine tune any little quirks and problems still present, or find them if they were being hidden.
Since the capsules had first arrived, Aida had made certain to keep them close at hand. And now was no different. She carried her two daughters in each arm,w ith her son carefully coiled in her tail. She was not surprised in the least to see Caius already in bed, though she did make a slight tsking sound at the sight of his boots and coat on the floor of all places. Aida approached the bed, then carefully set the capsules down amid some pillows on the side she often slept. After tucking a blanket securely between them and the edge of the bed, she walked around to kcoll;ect the boots and coat from the floor. She gave the coat a little bit of a shake, then turned the boots over to inspect the heels before she walked back to the door of Caius personal chambers. Opening it up, she nudged the guard standing outside. "See that Lord Caius coat is washed and oiled and the heels of his boots are leveled out before he awakens." She quietly instructed the guard as she placed the articals in his hands.
The guard nodded, before heading off to pass the job onto someone else below him, and returning to his post soon after.
Caius barely registered the movement at the foot of the bed, or when Aida spoke to the guard. Just a soft exhalation of breath and the barest of movement for the moment. He was -wiped-.
Aida returned to the bed and then paused to give Caius a good hard look. He was exhausted, which is what she expected of a busy god like himself. Sighing and tucking some hair behind her ear, Aida proceeded to gently nudge Caius over a bit so there was room for her and he caps. She crawled up beside him, then pulled the covers over the two of them. Only once she was in place did she turn her attention to their capsules. She placed several pillows along the edge of the bed, then placed her two daughters up close to her chest, and her son she tucked up on the pillow by her head.
Caius made a small sound at being nudged but she would succeed in doing so. As she arranged the caps he stirred a bit more and then eventually opened his eyes, blinking a bit before looking over and smiling. "Oh, hello, Aida." He brightened a little bit at the caps and scooted himself over a bit more to give her more room. as soon as she had them situated, he turned on his side facing her and wrapped his arm around her after giving the boy cap the slightest of pets himself. "I can't wait for them to arrive, can you?" he asks with a tired smile.
"Hello Caius." Was the simple soft and casual reply to his sleepy greeting. Here in his private chambers she allowed herself to be informal. Though once they were outside the doors she would, as always, be the ever devoted follower first, and his harem woman second. She watched him pat the boy capsule, and in turn she gave wach of the girls a small kiss. "I am over filled with excitement my lord." She shared earnestly. "I have many expectations of them, and I am already proud. Your new Advisor and I spoke long about their possible education."
Caius nodded at her words. "They are my first children, they will have high expectations from many. And yes, Dhenu has done very well for the brief time he has been here. He does not seem daunted by his tasks in the slightest. I believe I chose well for that position." He leans in to give her a kiss on the cheek as well, and actually snuggles against her. He wasn't always the cuddling type, but he'd found himself being that way towards Aida more and more. And especially now that she'd bore him children that they were both excited about.
"I will admit I am not uneasy with him taking over the tasks I once oversaw." Aida generousely remarked about the newly hired man. She smiled faintly at the kiss and lightly patted her hand over Caius arm. The affection he showed her lately she assumed was due to their reporduction, but that did not mean she did not appreciate it any less. Of course, she would never expect such affectiont o be shown outside of his chambers. Caius had a reputation to uphold, and Aida had her own sort of reputation as well. She closed her eyes and exhaled deeply. "I hope all will be in order by the time they arrive.
"Mmm, yes," he says quietly, his eyes drifting shut as well. "I have faith that the most important things will be, at the very least, with what little time we have had. There has been quite the flurry of activity in the royal wing today I hear." That meant Dhenu had done well at motivating the palace workers. Though all it would take if not, was a few words mentioned about Aida's demands, and if nothing else, that would light a fire under them. He couldn't help but smirk a bit at the thought of that.
Aida casually stroked Caius arm as they laid together with their capsules. Her eyes were closed as she smiled faintly. “He did mention something about that earlier when we spoke.” She admitted. She trusted all things would be in order when needed. Though there was never such a thing as being completely prepared for children. “I was thinking tomorrow I might take them to the throne room. Perhaps they can absorb something through their capsules while they sleep. They have been uncommonly still since arrival. I barely get a sound or wiggle out of any of them.”
Caius nodded. "Perhaps that might help. But I would not worry too much over them. They will be moving soon enough I am sure." He wondered if they would be extra mobile once out of the capsules, since they had been so still in them, but they could also prove to be very calm and patient children, as well.
“I am certain there will be times whenI long for the days when they were so easily contained.” Aida jested lightly before covering her mouth with a yawn. She reached up to adjust the blankets around the capsules, knowing it would get more chilly as the night progressed.

(This is the day after Caius and Aida cuddled together. A RP Between Sinbari, Live, and myself!)
Roshan: chewing mom's hair, since she had him apart from the others up on her pillow
Sadira: climbs onto her daddy and slowly crawls towards his head.
Nasim: Sits right where he popped out of his cap, investigating his toes
Aida: Feels something pulling on her hair "Mmm.. Caius my Lord...your on my hair again."
Roshan: sees his siblings and attempts to crawl down to Nasim, unfortunately using mommy's face as the starting platform
Caius: murmurs "I am not" still not opened eyes though he feels Sadira "But your arm's on my chest...or is it your tail......" is never sure
Sadira: pauses her crawling as she hears them speak she looks curiously down at his chest then looks back up and continues her crawl, tumbling onto his neck as she looses balance
Aida: "Mmm. My tail is wrapped around your leg." She murmurs sleepily. Then with a gasp of shock, something shuffles over her face and into the area where the two 'girl' caps were originally. "AHHHH!"
Nasim: Lifts his head to look at his brother, and despite the mommy yelling, he opens his arms to try and hug Roshan with a soft happy blurble
Caius: starts to reach up to figure out what's on his neck when he hears Aida cry out, and his eyes shoot open "What?" he says, and then he realizes he has a baby right in front of him. "Oh! Aida, look!" He scoops Sadira up with a wide grin on his face.
Roshan: eeps at mommy's yell and tumbles over in between mommy and daddy "Buh?" sits there confused
Sadira: babbles softly as she is scooped up, not seeming phased by her mamma's cry. she reach out her tiny arms waving them as she attempts to grab her daddy's face with a silly smile.
Aida: A bit wide eyed and now wide awake, she looks at the three babies and places a hand on her chest to calm her racing heart Well that was a bit of a shock. Good morning indeed. *She states as she reaches down to pick up Roshan and Nasim in her arms. "Lets see... you... must be Roshan." She decides while noting the boys obvious scarring. "Look Caius. It appears he has a warriors cant to him."
Nasim: With a blink at being picked up, he reaches out to try and pat Roshan, then waves at Sadira "Gah."
Caius: pulls Sadira closer and lets her grab his face "This must be Sadira. Pretty eyes and a little beauty mark already. "
Roshan: is picked up and put with Nasim, who pats him "Guh!" babbles happily and pats him back
Sadira: giggle babbles and paws her daddy's face then turns her head to look down at her siblings with a grin and wriggles her small arms and legs ready to get down.
Aida: She turns to look at Sadira and nods her head a little "She will be a beauty like me. I can see we will have no lack of marriage proposals for that one later!" She states with pride, then peering down at the other two "And that leaves you to be Nasim. Look at her yellow hair and blue eyes Caius. She will be just as lovely as Sadira. It will be hard determining which one is the beauty." *She lightly jests.
Nasim: Oblvious to his parents babble, he grins at his brother, then leans forwards to simply glomph his arm with one hand, while reaching the other out for his sister "Duh!"
Caius: "Indeed. They are all fine children, I am very proud, Aida." lets the wiggling Sadira down to join her siblings
Roshan: spots Sadira and waggles both arms at her "bababa!"
Sadira: happily crawls over to her siblings and glomps the pair energetically with a musical baby giggle
Aida: *Shifts up into a sitting position so she can watch her children interacting. "I do not think there will be much rivalry here. It is good to see they will get along well." She determines after a moment.
Nasim: Joyful that his siblings are now with him, Nasim grabs a foot and starts babbling in baby speech while pointing at his toes
Sadira: *blinks and paused to look at Nasim's toes. she babbles curiously and reaches over to pull on her siblings toes to see what was so great about them
Caius: "It seems that way, but it is too early to judge." muses this as he also sits up to watch them
Roshan: looks at Nasim's toes, then down to see if he had toes too, seeing he did, he babbles and pokes at his own toes
Aida: Preferentially she reaches out to pet her daughters heads as they have their baby discussion. Her snake headed tail coils up to flick it's tongue at the trio as she watches them. "I hope all is ready for the little ones. I think that for their first day outside the capsules, I shall keep them all together. What do you think Caius?"
Nasim: He makes a gurgling sound when Sadira pulls on his toes. Leaning over he pokes at hers in response, then belts out a happy babies laugh while clapping his hands in delight
Sadia: gurgles happily as her toes are prodded as well, wriggling them about. She catches sight of the snake head and pauses her return prod back to stare up at it with wide eyes. She blinks "egfapasaga! "she declares pointing at it in excitement
Caius: "That is a good idea. Did you still want to take them to the throne room for a bit? I can make sure it's closed to any visitors for a while. "
Roshan: "buh?" looks to see what Sister is pointing at and oooooohs, reaching out to touch the snakey head tail
Nasim: "GAH!" He exclaims when Sadira points out the snake. Immediately he claps his hands over his eyes.
Aida: "I think that would be an excellent idea. Perhaps if Rhosan can learn to be still and quiet he might sit with you when you are ruling." She muses "It's never too early to begin exposing them to their place in your city." She pauses at the excitement between the babies and watches them curiously.
Snake Head: being the center of the little ones focus, it flutters the small fairy wings on it's head and sways back and forth while hissing.
Sadira: sits back eyes transfixed on the snake head as it flutters and hissed. she slits her head and gurgles curiously before reaching her tiny hands out to try and touch it
Caius nods "they will learn their places as they grow older. And so will we, by watching them." watching them interact with Aida's snake tail with a smile
Roshan: blinks and looks at it "sss ssss?" tries to mimic it
Nasim" "Nnnnnnnm" *He whines, perhaps being the only baby not enthralled by the black wiggly thing with teeth. he keeps his hands clapped tightly over his eyes&
Aida: "Such as which one of our children doesn't like snakes?" Aida says with a faint laugh. She reaches out to pluck Nasim up and holds him out to Caius. "Here. Calm your daughter. I want to see what the other two do without anyone making a fuss."
Snake head: He flutters it's wings again then leans in to lightly head bump Sadira's fingers. It turns it's beady eyes on Roshan and hisses again, it's little tongue waving in the air at him as it does
Sadia: a look of fascination and awe filled her face as her fingers touched the scales. "wagah!" she states in excitement and reaches out as the head turns its attention to his sibling, and tried to wrap her small arms around it's nose to in an attempt to hug it*
Caius: "Hmm, indeed". regards Nasim with a small frown at that, hoping they will grow out of it, but takes her and holds her against his chest "There there, it's only a snake. It won't hurt you."
Roshan: giggles as it talks back to him and babbles incoherently before once more mimicking it "Sss!! Sss!!"
Aida:"There is nothing wrong with a natural fear of something dangerous." She comments while watching Nasim seek to hide himself against Caius. "So long as it doesn't make her a coward as she grows up." She adds
Serpent: He releases a amusing little squeak sound as it finds itself grabbed in a hug by Sadira, however it does not pull away or snap at her. It merely allows the hug while flicking it's tongue over her cheek, then it stretches out to try and lick Roshan's nose "Sssss!"
Sadira: giggles bubbly as the tongue tickles her cheek, after a moment she releases the head as it reaches out to her sibling. sitting back she claps in delight
Caius: "I am sure she will be fine." pats Nasim's back
Roshan: gets his nose licked and giggles madly as he pulls back, a grin on his face "sss sss! bababa!" pokes his sister then points at his nose before leaning in for another lick
Aida: She nods her head in agreement while watching how easily amused her children are by her tail of all things We may need to get them pets She muses
Snake: *It slithers back and forth between Roshan and Sadira. Flicking it's tongue out to lick the two and fluttering it's wings every time one of them laughs.
Nasim: He opens his eyes and as Caius is gently patting his back...attempts to wave a chubby little arm down at where his sword sheath currently is
Sadira: pokes him back and giggles as the tounge tickles her skin again. she swats at it in a playful manner. then reaches over to poke her brother's nose with a chuckle
"Hmm?" caius peers down" Oh, interested in that are you?" seeing as his sword is not in it, he sees no harm and sets her down there
Roshan: giggles more and holds his hand out to the snake this time
Aida leans over to begin gently fussing with Sadira's hair and cap while she giggles and plays with her brother. A happu little smile on her face as she does so. "Our children are so well behaved. I have heard this is rather unusual for a first time."
The serpents head wavered between the two children, then as Roshan held his hand out to it, it gently closed it's mouth over his fingers. "Ssss!"
Nasim meanwhile made a happy sound as he was allowed to have the object of his interest. he pulls on the big sheath and flops it around in his lap while quitely babbling to himself.
Sadira tries to ignore her mother's hand messing with her hair and cap, much more interested in playing with the snake and her brother. "Gah!" she cries out in a sort of upset consternation as the snake closes its mouth around Roshan's fingers. "Ububa!" She demanded and reaches out to try to pry open the snake's mouth with her tiny hands.
Caius: is content to let Nasim play around to distract himself, and watches the other two fearlessly play with the snake
Roshan: squeals in delight as the snake mouths his hand, and tries to figure out why Sadira is trying to open it "Bah bah? sss ss!" he tells her.
