[ She's totally smitten with Lucia. Cue Dawn giving the little one her fingers to grab and kissing little hands. ]

You could always just make up new names when-slash-if you forget. It may enhance the 'oh damn mom's pissed' factor.

[graveflowers]

Lucia Finley Calenmiriel Isabella Gabriella Josephina Alessandra Capriana Valencia Ianthe Althea Caitriona Reedhym... [ she ducks her head to brush her nose against lu's downy soft hair. ] You're gonna regret being my kid so many times.

[watcherjunior]

Banana fo fana, but we'll just call her Dot for short. [ Name that reference! ] Ah, I'm totally sure she'll love having you as a mom more often than regret it.

[graveflowers]

[ vi is like ...ok, but goes with it because dawn is dear to her and lbr she goes with vi's randomness on the regular. ]

Hope so. I'm pretty fond of her.

[watcherjunior]

What's not to be fond of with both of you? [ Dawn leans in to kiss Lucia's fingers again. ]

Okay, what else is new around here? Aside from the whole--[ She finishes the statement with a vague handwave to indicate the castle. ]

[graveflowers]

Um. Myri's got a baby, too. Shayla Anemone. Buffy and Raf are facebook official. I had a squire that was a tree, he's awesome. Jack and Gar are engaged? Her ring is gorgeous.

[watcherjunior]

[ Wow, that is a whole lotta new. ] ...wait, Gar and Jack? As in. Chessing? Also, squire that was a tree?

[graveflowers]

Yes! It was a total scandal, but they're so fucking cute. Even Wynn was swayed and you know that whole Dragon's Claw rule.

[watcherjunior]

Right, the whole "no fraternizing with the not-Claw knights." Holy crap. I can't believe she hasn't told me. Note to self: find Gar and check out the ring. But aww, I'm glad she's happy.

[graveflowers]

They're really... [ vi shivers happily. ] They're so good.

[watcherjunior]

Good. Good. [ She can't help but smile. Grin, really. ] Okay. And Buffy and Raf? I know you said Facebook official, but how are those waters? Cause my last recollection, those seas stayed kinda choppy.

[graveflowers]

No, it's unchopped, they're like a thing. It's adorable. They're a couple, fully coupled.

[watcherjunior]

Oh good! [ Her reply comes a little too quick, a little too loud. It's not intended to be a reflection on how she feels about Buffy and Rafael. ] I mean, that things smoothed out. And being adorable.

[graveflowers]

Yeah. Not gonna lie, I love them both, but it's nice that that drama's over. Weird random fiances, not that Isabella's weird or random, but whatever, it was like nah, I'm over it.

[watcherjunior]

Yeah, no. Pretty sure everyone could see it. I mean, I could tell way back when during the concert, and I hardly knew either of them.

[graveflowers]

Oh my god, right? Their unresolved sexual tension was so tense! But now it's resolved! Small miracles.

[watcherjunior]

Their UST had its own UST. But now it is freed up to develop for... y'know. Any others who are looking for their share.

[ Is it awkward to talk about this with a widow? Yeeeeeeep. ]

[graveflowers]

Exactly! [ for what it's worth, vi doesn't seem all that bothered. maybe a touch melancholy but she's happy for buffy. ] Mark and Alainn are a thing now too, which makes me wish I was at the palace more because I missed all the best gossip and drama.

[watcherjunior]

Really? Go, King Mark. [ Pause. ] Wow, that still sounds weird. [ She shakes her head. ] Well, now that I'm home, I will keep you updated.

[graveflowers]

People call him Marcus sometimes and I'm always like who the fuck is Marcus ohhhh.

[watcherjunior]

[ She snorts. ] Yeah, I'd probably do the same. So does he come back here often, or does Alainn go to him? Cause I'm nosy.

[graveflowers]

She lives in the palace with him. It's all very Disney princess romance, except Alainn the most badass.

[watcherjunior]

So, like, Merida from Brave. But even more badass. [ Squints. ] Okay, having a hard time imagining Alainn as a Disney princess.

[graveflowers]

[ so is vi and her face scrunches up as she tries to pick a princess. ] Mulan! Or Mulan and Merida's baby.

[watcherjunior]

[ Dawn snaps her fingers and grins. ] There. That's it. That's totally it. It's the perfect mix for her; less cartoon birds braiding her hair and more... kicking ass.
