*both children have a rather decent nap and Ozzy seems to be in high spirits when he wakes up*
Thrax: *despite his position is fast asleep*
Ozzy: *snuggles up to him*
Thrax: Mmmm. . . Wha? *sees Ozzy and smiles*
Ozzy: *smiles back and looks up at him, a twinkle in his eyes*
Thrax: *raises his head* Feeling better, baby?
Ozzy: *nods* loads
Thrax: *smiles* Glad to hear. *gets up and stretches his extremely stiff muscles and joints.*
Ozzy: *hugs him*
Thrax: *hugs him back, stroking his hair*
Northstar: *yawns as she sits up*
Thrax: *looks up at her* Morning honey.
Northstar: Daddy I'm hungry. *rubs her eyes sleepily*
Thrax: *sits next to her* What would you both like to eat?
Northstar: Peanutbutter.
Thrax: *chuckles shaking his head amused* And you Ozzy?
Ozzy: *chuckles* same thing I guess*
Thrax: *ruffles Ozzy's hair and kissed Northstar before heading down to the kitchen*
Northstar: *lets out a squeal as Ozzy picks her up on the way downstairs*
Thrax: *chuckles to himself and starts cooking for the two*
Ozzy: *puts NS in her chair, seeming to definitely feel better*
Thrax: *sets a plate with two pieces of toast with peanut butter and bananas in front of each of them with a glass of milk each*
Ozzy: *eats his breakfast happily, having gotten very much better since the visit from eve*
Thrax: *smiles and thinks of last night, gets a love sick daze on his face*
Ozzy: You ok dad?
Thrax: *snaps out of it* Yeah just thinking. *blushes bright red*
Ozzy: *smiles* Bout what?
Thrax: *whispers* Eve.*blushes a deeper shade of red*
Ozzy: Did she show up again last night?'
Thrax: *nods* Surprised she didn't wake you, my baby.
Ozzy: *smiles* I feel better though... like way better...
Thrax: *nods* Thanks to her.
Ozzy: *tilts his head* who?
Thrax: *smiles* Your mother, baby. Your true mother.
Ozzy: *smiles* Mama Eve...
Thrax: *strokes his head* Even in death, she's able to help her children.
Ozzy: *smiles softly*
Northstar: *sucks her thumb and looks up at her new family*
Thrax: *kisses her forehead* Her love is always with us, just your own mother's my jewel.
Northstar: *nods and nuzzles him a little sniffing* I miss her...
Thrax: *holds her close* I know but as long as you remember her in your memories and your heart, she will always be with you.
Northstar: *nuzzles into his chest and seems to calm in response to being held by someone who loves her*
Ozzy: *smiles and kisses her head then gently plucks her thumb from her mouth* Gonna bend your teeth outa shape... *chuckles*
Thrax: *rolls his eyes then looks at the clock* Since you're feeling better I suggest you get ready for work, Ozzy.
Ozzy: *nods* yeah I should. *stands up and hugs Thrax*
Thrax: *hugs him back* No mischief today and keep alert in case your siblings or their families are in trouble.
Ozzy: *nods* Yes sir.
Thrax: *ruffles his hair* Good boy. Now finish your breakfast and get ready.
Ozzy: *nods and finishes his breakfast*
Thrax: *finishes a small amount of toast before turning to Northstar*
Northstar: *reaches up toward him*
Thrax: *lifts her into his arms, nuzzling her softly*
Northstar: *lets out a low coo*
Thrax: *strokes her hair lightly* *turns to Ozzy* Better get going or the Chief will have both our heads.
Ozzy: *nods and kisses his cheek before heading out*
Thrax: *chuckles lightly before turning to Northstar* He's trouble but worth it.
Northstar: Am I?
Thrax: *ruffles her hair* Mischief maker you are my dear and you're worth it as well. *kisses her* Would you like to go to the park, honey?
Northstar: *nods* uh huh! *smiles* I would.
Thrax: **strokes her face then sets her done* Get dressed while I clean up. *begins gathering the dishes*
Northstar: *goes to her room to change clothes
Thrax: *cleans up the kitchen before heading to his own room to dress*
Northstar: *goes downstairs, most eager to go*
Thrax: *joins her, straightening his trench coat* Let's go, honey. *takes Northstar's hand and leads her out of the house to the park*
Northstar: *holds his hand as they go to the park*
Thrax: *brings her to the park they previously visited* Now you know to stay close and be safe okay.
Northstar: *nods and makes a bind for the playground*
Thrax: *sits at one of the benches, looking around at the other families and couples in the park* *slightly smiles* Maybe our family can be like that once we are truly safe. *turns to watch Northstar*
Northstar: *goes to play on the swings*
Thrax: *a soft smile appears on his lips as he watches her*
Northstar: *soon moves to the jungle gem*
Thrax: *rest his head on his arm, his eyes becoming dream like*
Cell: *chuckles and sits down* I take it one of them is yours?
Thrax: *jumps slightly and turns to the cell*
*she's in her thirties perhaps and looks to be a mix of brain cell and a red blood cell and she's watching a viral hybrid over by the slide*
Thrax: *smiles turning back to his daughter* The young girl near the jungle gym. My little jewel.
Cell: You must be proud.
Thrax: *smiles* Yes. *looks at the young hybrid* Your child?
Cell: *nods*
Thrax: *smiles* As long as their our children, blood or not and doesn't matter which species they are. They're our children and we love them.
Cell: *nods again and smiles as she watches her child run about the playground*
Thrax: *keeps watch over Northstar, smiling with pride and love*
*a soft voice rings through the wind*
Northstar: **leans into the wind and smiles before climbing on the jungle gym*
Thrax: *listens to the voice*
I don' t sabe
Qué palabras puedo decir
El viento tiene una manera
Para hablar conmigo
Sueño de las flores
Un arrullo silencioso
Ruego para la contestación
I' m listo
El día reservado me calma
Oh, serenidad Alguien satisface
Dígame, (oh… el hmmm)
¿Cuál es él dice?
Sabré quizá un día. I don' t sabe lo que
Las palabras I pueden decir
El viento tiene una manera
Para hablar conmigo
Sueño de las flores
Un arrullo silencioso
Ruego para la contestación
I' m listo
Thrax: *starts looking around to find who's singing*
Northstar: *tilts her head a little and looks over at Thrax*
Thrax: *massages his head* Must be imagining things. *turns back to Northstar smiling*
Northstar: *smiles back and climbs down, running to him*
Thrax: *lifts her into his arms, holding her close*
Northstar: Come catch me on the slide. *smiles*
Thrax: *chuckles, setting her down and fallows her*
Northstar: *climbs the ladder*
Thrax: *position himself at the end of the slide and waves at her*
Northstar; *slides down*
Thrax: *catches her, lifting her into his arms*
Northstar: *lets out a squeal as she's lifted*
Thrax: *cuddles her close, rubbing her back* It's okay honey, you're safe. *nuzzles her*
Northstar: *nuzzles back and smiles*
Thrax: *smiles back at her but starts hearing that song again and looks around*
*The singing seems to be coming from a young she-virus with a she-cell accompanying her playing a flute*
Northstar: *looks toward the music*
Thrax: *looks towards the she-virus and can't help but blush at her beautiful singing and graceful dancing but he shakes it off* What am I thinking? I can't feel attracted to her.
Northstar: *tilts her head a little*
Thrax: *looks towards the graceful she-virus as she dances and singing, the blush rising in his cheeks*
*The young she-virus continues dancing and singing as her friend plays the haunting melody with her flute*
Northstar:" *cuddles a little*
Thrax: *holds Northstar close and makes his way to the two females*
Northstar: *looks at them*
*Two females finish the melody and bows to the crowd as they throw coins to the girls*
Thrax: *stands near them, swallowing his unease as looks on at the she-virus*
She-virus: *sees Thrax and gave him a soft smile then turned away blushing*
She-cell: *notices her 'sister's' blushing and silently giggled to herself*
Northstar: *looks up from Thrax's shoulder, shyly sucking her thumb*
She-cell *approaches Thrax and smiles at Northstar* She's so adorable.
Thrax: *comes back to reality and smiles* Yes, she is. *kisses Northstar's forehead*
Northstar: *coos softly and nuzzles into Thrax's chest*
She-cell: *looks over Thrax's hands, searching for a ring and smirks when she doesn't see one*
Thrax: *gives her questionable look*
She-virus: *approached Thrax, trying to hide her blush and smiled at the young girl in his arms*
Northstar: *hugs Thrax a little and looks at the she virus, popping her thumb out of her mouth for a moment* hi... *waggles her fingers then pops the thumb back in*
She-virus: *softly smiles at her, a glimmer of love in her eyes that seemed familiar*
Northstar: *tilts her head a little and reaches her hand out a little*
She-virus: *gently takes her hand and massages it gently*
She-cell: *smirks* You always had a way with kids, sis. *she chuckled but quickly shut up when her 'sister' glared at her*
Thrax: *smiled as the she-virus interacted with his daughter* She's a natural.
Northstar: Daddy?
Thrax: *looks down at her* Yes, honey?
Northstar: I'm thirsty
Thrax: I guess we better head home then. *turns to the girls* Nice meeting you.
Both: And you, sir. *they bowed and left for their home. The she-cell giggling her head off but her sister smacked her upside the head and hissed*
Thrax: *smiled and started to make the journey home*
Northstar: *huggles him*
Thrax: *leads Northstar inside their home and fixes her some cold milk* Here you are, honey. *hands her the glass*
Northstar: *drinks it and sits in his lap*
Thrax: *rubs her back. smiling but mind suddenly turn to the she-virus he met*
Northstar: *finishes her milk*
Thrax: *seems to be in a love-suck daze but shakes it off* I can't feel that way not now, not ever.
Northstar: *tugs his sleeve* Daddy?
Thrax: *snaps out of his trance* Sorry, honey. Just thinking.
Northstar: Bout what?
Thrax: About that she-virus we met today. *sighs* I feel as though I'm betraying Eve by being attracted to her.
Northstar: *tilts her head*
Thrax: *hangs his head* Even though she's dead I still feel like I'm betraying her like this. *hangs his head*
Northstar: what do you mean daddy?
Thrax: *swallows* I feel attracted to the she-virus but I can't betray Eve for another.
Northstar: would she be mad?
Thrax: *sighs* I don't know, honey. *hangs his head* I just don't know.
Northstar: *kisses him on the cheek and hugs him*
Thrax: *hugs her back and kisses her forehead* A relationship would mean I have betrayed Eve's memory and I can't do that.
Northstar: Why?
Thrax: *tears begin to form* I love her even though she' dead I can't betray her like that.
Northstar: *looks up at him and takes hold of his cheeks with her little hands*
Thrax: *looks towards her, his tears streaming down his face*
Northstar: *gently wipes them away* Daddy?
Thrax: Hmm?
Northstar: You don’t have to do anything that makes you feel bad...
Thrax: *nods sadly* But I don't how I'm going to rid myself of these feelings?
Northstar: *hugs him*
Thrax: *hugs her back*
Northstar: *nuzzles, sucking her thumb*
Thrax: *sighs* A lots going through my head right now.
