Hans was nervous to say the least. He told Hansel that he wanted to cook dinner himself. He decided on steak and mashed potatoes and corn because it was something he was good at cooking. Though he wasn't quite sure how Mitchell wanted his steak cooked. He went with medium well for everyone and hoped it was okay.

He had the table set with nice china and a little play area set up for the babies in the living room. He wore a pressed, white dress shirt and black slacks, his hair neatly combed. Yes, they were meeting Gretel, but he wanted to make a good impression on Mitchell. And hoped that he wouldn't get dirty looks in regard to the promise ring he'd given Sophia.

He stood back from the table and looked, crossing his arms and sighing heavily. He felt like it wasn't good enough but he didn't know what else to do.

Sophia was bouncy. She was excited about meeting his sister. It took all she had not to go early. To wait for dinner time, and Mitchell. But she filled the time with doing her makeup, hair, and picking out a lovely dress.

She knew she was probably over done. She didn't have to impress Hans! But she didn't think it hurt to look pretty. "Daaaaaaaaad." She sing songed at Mitchell, for no reason other than she was a little nervous.

Gretel was trying.

There could be no deeper detailed description of what was going through her mind than that. She was trying. Trying to stave away the increasing unease about this place. Trying to keep in mind what was important to her- Hansel (even if he preferred Hans now). Trying to make herself fit. Trying to not be overwhelmed. For a while it felt like she was making headway- tiny, babysteps forward with the occasional shuffle back. She'd even started wearing the clothes of the time, though her hair was still done in the fashion she knew and preferred, with a dress picked by the former-pony instead of thick protective leather layers and her old, ragged cloak.

But right now as she milled around watching her twin brother go about these homebody rituals that were so completely foreign to her, she worried that this whole dinner might put her at a standstill- maybe for a while. She tried to help where she could, letting the babies toy with her hair and gum at her fingers while the wait increased.

Something was not right. Something hadn't been right the whole evening long. He couldn't shake the feeling as he glanced up at the sky on his way over to the apartments. Ash was held closely to his chest as he hurried up the stairs and down the corridor to where Sophia was waiting.

"Hey, how you doing?" he said more with a tired voice and smile. "You look gorgeous." He gave her a short kiss on the cheek. "You ready?"

	Hans made sure everything was perfect and then went over to take Mina from Gretel, bouncing her a little. "Hey, you." He chuckled. "Part of me finds it hard to believe she's already two and another part is still trying to get used to the fact that she's only two." He smiled. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I'm excited, it's his sister. You know how much his sister means to him? And he wants to introduce me." It was obvious from her voice that she was more than a little excited.

And her grin grew when Mitchell kissed her on the cheek. "Oh yeah." Sophia rapped her knuckles lightly on the door. She was just as excited to see Hans, because she hadn't seen much of him since Gretel got in. But she couldn't be jealous.

At least the small smile she sent up to her brother was natural, not to mention genuine, even if she was still pretty shakily distracted. Bits of her waist-length hair dropped from Mina's little fingers as Hans hoisted her up. Robin seemed to grow bored of braiding the pieces of her belt and wandered off to a set of colored wax drawing sticks called Crayons.

"I know the feeling," she said, perhaps a bit more dry than she expected, obviously applying the context to a different area of her life than the two toddlers loosely labeled niece and nephew</i>. The knock at the door drew her eyes, sharp and intense as flushing a hag from it's lair. It wasn't the only one of Gretel's mannerisms that kept one boot firmly lodged in the cold woods of Germany.
