Happy birthday, daddy! @MindfulJabber

@NeverSmileAt some emotion toward him as well. And that part has nothing to do with you."

@NeverSmileAt to and if you cut him off when he's trying to open up for you, you may regret it. Just... give it time." I move back to the tea tray and prepare us both a cup. "And, not to be crude, but obviously there is something between him and Hook so he might have come here because of +

A Father and Son Reunion [For @NeverSmileAt & @UJabberTooMuch] As soon as I have Umber at the ship, safely tucked away, and a note that he's there left on the bed in the captain's quarters just... in case things go horribly and I don't return so Killian will know, I magic +

Happy birthday to my sexy lover, @NeverSmileAt.

@NeverSmileAt did try anything toward me or our babes. And since your family is mine, hurting them would hurt me. I know you won't stop worrying, no matter what I say. But try to remember it anyway."

@NeverSmileAt kill me and only I am able to get to it. Plus... he's claimed by Maleficent, which means he won't come after me without inciting her wrath as well, even claimed. There are only a few dragons at all here and we protect each other fiercely. She would come down hard on him if he +

@NeverSmileAt boil water, prepare tea for us both.

@NeverSmileAt I'll also be open to allowing him a second chance... like all the rest of us have gotten. I set my things down and go to his wheel, preparing it for when he gets done with the warding he's doing. When that's done I head to the kitchen and, with a little dragon fire to rapidly +

@NeverSmileAt anything I've heard about him." I don't add that if not for knowing what he's done, I might even like him. Now isn't the time. And it might never be. Which is fine to me. Oleander needs time to work through this his way and I'll be by his side for it.

@NeverSmileAt I nod and grab my purse, then come back to him, ready for him to magic us home. "Not agreeing to it yet still choosing to not attacking him on your own, I think would be just as good to him. He... didn't seem like he was playing games to me. Honestly, he didn't seem like +

@NeverSmileAt So I don't think he was pretending. I'll, of course, be wary... but I honestly don't feel threatened."

@NeverSmileAt "Yes, you could have said no. That was exactly the option he gave you while saying he himself intends no harm. He also immediately agreed to my stance that we both have to give permission. I don't think he was lying. Nothing in his physical reactions even hinted at him lying. +

@NeverSmileAt was ever given a safe outlet for those traumas. It's not surprising he wasn't able to let himself love or trust anyone, really. Having that done as a child..." I shudder and my hands cover my belly once more.

@NeverSmileAt I smile at him serenely. "We are all just fine. Will take more than your father coming back from the dead and apparently just needing to have words with you to cause me any real stress. Though, realizing he'd been... used as a boy stung at my own survivors scars. Doubtful he +
