Who: Darius and Ophelia
When: Tuesday morning
Where: Casa Del Ophelia
What: Explanations, glompage
Warnings: will update if there's anything, mild language for the moment.

Darius wondered how many times he was going to be nervously waiting on Ophelia's door step, hoping that things would go well. He trusted her to accept him and his world, but he couldn't let the fear of rejection go entirely. It probably had a lot to do with the fact that he was still furious with Sophie, though he figured that would fade with time. She hadn't harmed him, but he was so exhausted that it was difficult not to fly off the handle.

The coffee in his hands was warm, and Darius felt as though that was the only thing keeping him awake at the moment. Well, beside the nervousness, of course. He knocked loudly, hoping he wasn't too early.

	Ophelia bounced over to the door. Her hair was piled on her head in a pair of hairsticks and she was still in pajama bottoms and a tank top. Excuse her, she's been cooking every breakfast food she knows about. "Hello!" She leans forward, kissing him. "Come in, I'm so happy to see you!" (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Her kiss revived him, and he returned it eagerly, the scratch of old stubble reminding him that he was a mess still. He whistled at her, and stepped in. "I'm happy to see you too, Ophelia. How have you been?" Seeing her always made him smile, and today was no different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh, I've been doing well. The flower shop is a good place to work, though it's been slow-ish lately." She grins at him and closes the door behind him. "I've made pancakes and french toast, oh, and there's eggs, sausage and bacon. I...didn't know what to make." She had a lot of fun cooking it, though! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

His grin turned wry and he laughed, kissing her again. "You're incredible, beautiful, and thoughtful. I swear I don't know what I'd do without you."

His stomach was empty, and the coffee wasn't going to tide him over for long. "Sorry for taking over one of your empty rooms. I just need some time away to get some perspective. Want some help with the cooking? Once we've got breakfast I'll explain what's going on."

	"It's perfectly all right. There's no one else I'd rather have in my spare room. You're welcome for as long as you need to stay." She beamed at him. "Oh, I've been up a few hours. There's some stuff hot and ready if you're hungry now." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You're also an angel, just so you know." He went toward the kitchen, and started dishing up a breakfast for himself. "It all smells good." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-20 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	Ophelia blushed. "You're sweet." She went to the stove to finish up the last of the breakfast items and then got a plate for herself, sitting down across from him. "I hope it tastes as good as it smells." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dasummers 2009-03-20 09:25 pm UTC (link)
	He had already begun, and nodded feverently. He swallowed and wiped his mouth. "Better. Okay. So you know how some people on the board look weird? Gar is green, usually an animal, Lorna has green hair. . . lots of green going on." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ophelia nodded. "I just assumed it was normal around here." So much had changed, after all, why not people's colors? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dasummers 2009-03-20 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay. So beside looking different, some people can do different things. My dad, and the version of him here, can shoot things out of their eyes. One of my brothers is made of diamond and doesn't need to eat or sleep." A power he was beginning to envy as he finished his first plate and grabbed another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-20 09:42 pm UTC (link)
	Ophelia listened and nodded. "So...their bodies can do different things than mine can, then. Like...special things?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dasummers 2009-03-20 10:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Some, yes. I knew a woman who could change her form, I've known people who can fly. . . and some have less obvious powers. Sophie's power is the same as my Mom's: she can see what people are thinking. With enough willpower, she can make people do, think, or say things." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-20 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	Ophelia nodded, leaning forward with interest. "Oh...that sounds incredible! Though...I do not think I would like someone to see my thoughts at all." It's a little concerning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's normally okay. I know how to block them from prying, to some extent, and I trust Mom and Sophie. But she made me see mental images of someone I don't like very much naked last night, and I couldn't sleep." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-20 10:46 pm UTC (link)
	"...oh." Ophelia wrinkled her nose. Ew. "That's not very nice at all." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dasummers 2009-03-20 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	Totally eww. "No. I was a bit of an ass to her, but it just doesn't feel that great to have trust abused. Even in a harmless way." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-20 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	"No, I can imagine not. I am sorry that has happened to you." She reached out and patted his hand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dasummers 2009-03-20 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	He smiled at her, stroking her hand softly. "Thanks. I'm sure after a week away I'll get over it and we'll be friends again." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I hope that the memory fades, certainly." She beams at him. "But I'm more than happy to have you here for a while." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"No kidding. I'm terrified to ask how she knew what he looked like." Since it was her surrogate father and all. "I'll probably go stay with my other family. I work for Scott in Genosha, and it seems like Domino's going to pop any day now. I'd like to enjoy the last few days before there are wailing babies in the house." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-21 12:02 pm UTC (link)
	"You probably don't want to know that." She nodded. "Oooh, babies. I love babies." She beamed at him. "But they are rather loud sometimes." Especially in a castle with rooms that echo loudly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dasummers 2009-03-21 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	He nodded, laughing. "Probably not." Her expression when she talked about the babies made him smile even more. "You'll have to help me when I'm babysitting, then." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-21 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	"I would love to do that," she said. "What is Genosha like?" She's never been there before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hot. It's kind of rundown. Like the neighborhood with the ice cream shop we went to a couple weeks ago. But everywhere. But it's getting better. I don't know what's going to happen to it now, but it used to be run by people that truly cared about it. The compound where Nathan lives used to be a hotel. It's pretty swanky now, and there's a lot of free space." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	love_remember 2009-03-21 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	Ophelia nods. "Perhaps it just needs to be inhabited by people who care about the place...so maybe things will improve." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
