[FILTERED TO GUARDIANS OF KIDS AT THE OUTLANDER GRADE SCHOOL + BARNS RESIDENTS (Includes everyone in the Xhorhaus)]

Ah- Hello. I believe I have met most of you by now, but I am Caleb Widogast. I co-own Chastity's Nook and am a professor at Geliara Academy. I am one of the guardians of Kiri, if your kids have met her, she is the one in very brightly colored clothes, has a healthy dose of black feathers, and an impressive mimicry vocabulary. I apologize if she taught your child swear words.

Her and Velora have been bugging us for some time to have a "sleepover"? I understand it is not an easy thing to trust everyone, especially people you do not know well. We would like to invite you all over for a large family dinner this coming Saturday evening?

There are several of us in this house and most are fairly responsible adults, so if you find us trustworthy, I am happy to offer our house for the children to spend the night in a giant pillow-fort room. And if you wish to stay as well, I would be happy to magic up some extra accommodations.

Ah- thank you. I probably am overthinking this but Kiri has never had much of a chance to have friends or family until this place, and we're approaching her being with us for a year and I have never been a father-figure before, so-- ja. Anyway.

	I'll talk to Allison but Claire recently had a sleepover with a friend from school. She's practically a sleepover expert now so I'm sure she'd love to come. I think there were pink and purple tents and plenty of sugar at the last one. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	That could very well be where she heard of it. It is not commonplace back home, I do not think, but both her and Velora have been talking about nothing but that. With Jester around, you can rest assured this will be much the same. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's good for them, helps kids exert a little bit of independence. And gives the parents a break. Well, the ones who aren't hosting the sleepover anyway. They'll all have a good time, especially if it's a pillow fort room. That sounds like any kid's dream. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There are nine adults in this house and a tame bear, at least a few of us get shift breaks? I had fun with designing that room, in particular, to be honest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, I'm sure you can work out a schedule. Thanks in advance too, for hosting. I'm always happy to arrange for things so Claire can spend time with her friends. Most adults would probably want a pillow fort room too, come to think of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, good, I am glad to hear it. Giving the children something normal and fun is a good priority. Ja, it brings out your inner child. And there is something about pillows. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	My little one's who Claire recently had her sleepover with - her name's Nadia, and she'd be thrilled to attend. Pillow forts sounds like something she'd like. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, perfect. She is a seasoned warrior, and we would be glad for her experience. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We're always open for play-dates, too. It helps to take turns in hosting sleepovers if you're looking to have your own date night sometime in the future. Need any of us to provide anything food-wise? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Essek and I are very much homebodies but I know Kiri and Velora both would enjoy a chance at play-dates and visiting others. Does she have any dietary needs? Kiri eats nearly anything but I thought they might like it if I ordered pizza for them. Kids seem to enjoy pizza? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fivecenturies 2021-04-19 02:13 pm UTC (link)
	Nope, she's good to go on all types and isn't picky. Pizza's literally the best kind of food for a sleepover though so you're definitely nailing it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, perfect. Speak up now if she is not able to have donuts or cupcakes, because I am sure there will become. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fivecenturies 2021-04-20 12:40 am UTC (link)
	Throw in some chocolate milk or a capri sun and it's definitely her kind of party. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Can't hurt to go to a dinner and everything. Plus, I'm fairly certain Claire will want to go either way. (Reply to this) (Parent)
