"Blub blub?" Kenny teased him as they walked back towards the Sanctuary. Cedric grabbed his hat and flattened it again.
"Oh come on! I told you to stop that." Kenny tried to fix the hat yet again.
They got to the church, and Cedric stopped.
"You're not coming back in with me." He said, standing there stubbornly with his arms folded.
"Why do you treat me so bad babe?" Kenny said, purposefully trying to annoy him.
"Get out!" Cedric yelled, although he was trying not to laugh.
He slammed the door in Kenny's face and headed back down the steps. He walked back in the kitchen and grabbed his pillow off the table.
"What did I miss?" He asked John and Zeke.

Eliza nodded and said "She is welcome to visit the Sanctuary, just as all Fae Princesses. May I inquire, John, why did you choose her first?"

"Wow...thanks Eliza. Any chance you could throw in a promotion with that? I've been a Guardian of Light for the past 200 years." Zeke joked in a semi-serious question before stopping and noticing Cedric walk back in.

He put his knife and fork down on the plate and leant back, giving a contented sigh.
"Not much." He smiled "just finished my breakfast."

Zeke got up and walked over to the frying pan where he cracked a couple of eggs again and started cooking more bacon and eggs. He looked over at the others who were staring at him quizzically.

"I'm making Aimee's." He saw the expressions in their faces change. "Stop thinking what you're thinking!" He turned back to face the frying pan. The smell of the cooking animal fat was music to his...nostrils.

Rowan walked into the kitchen, the smell of bacon and eggs leading him. He looked at Zeke quizically, then walked over to the fridge and pulled out a steaming omellete. "Amatuers," he laughed.

"That's not even funny." He said, silently cursing the fridge. "I'm sure that thing has a grudge against me."

"Well, Eliza, to be frank, she seemed like the least ...political... and most honest of those I've received letters from."

Ewan walked into the kitchen sleepy-eyed. He shook his face rapidly, and saw everyone in there.

"Morning folks..." Ewan yawned loudly, causing Zeke to yawn as well, and then Rowan. "Oh... Looks like you figured out how to get fresh cooked food from the fridge? I knew how to do that since I was a Student... I just prefer to make my own when I can."

Ewan pulled open the fridge and was given a plate of golden-brown waffles and bacon.

"To be honest..." Ewan whispered as he sat down with a knife and fork. "Dell's waffles are better, but these are pretty good."

"We should have a party." Cedric said, smiling. "Y'know, to welcome her." He was also hoping it would be a good excuse for Ewan to bake another cake. He walked over to the fridge and stared at it.
"You and me.. We gotta problem." He said to the fridge, crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes.

"Wait wait wait....what's happening? Who's coming?" Rowan asked, mouth full of omelette.

"Now that we're all paying attention this time, the Fae Princess Maria is coming. Having a party might be a good idea, but I was thinking something a little bit more low-key -- maybe just a little "meet-and-greet the Guardians" style thing?" John said.

"Question! Do I have to wear a Tux' again?" Cedric said, opening the fridge door. It remained empty for him.
"Why won't you feed me damnit!" He yelled, shaking the fridge violently. He stopped looked around at the others.
"Too much..?"

"You'd rather have that, and deprive us of the chance of getting drunk with a princess?" Rowan asked, incredulously. "Comeannnnn. Except Eliza can't of course, baby to think of," he muttered.

Zeke turned around after plating up the new bacon & eggs. "Also. Are you completely forgetting about Aimee? She's bad enough without any other substances affecting her. I dread to think what alcohol would do to her. And on that note, I've gotta take her her breakfast." As he walked out of the room he saw everyone staring at him.

"OH COME ON! Bunch of judgemental bastards...the lot of you..." He mumbled as he walked towards Aimee's room.

"No, you don't have to wear a Tux, Ced. Rowan, please try and keep in mind I may be marrying said princess." John said. He chuckled slightly as Cedric shook the fridge. "Have you tried asking it politely?" He asked.

Cedric smiled as Zeke left the room, then turned his attention back to the fridge. He opened the door again, this time finding a note.
"'Stop that'... Hey!" He crumpled up the piece of paper, but just sighed.
"Fine, I give up for now." He said. "And if I ask it nicely that means it's won." Cedric said to John, leaving his pillow on top of the fridge again as he left the kitchen.

"There's no icebreaker quite like booze. Mostly cause it melts said ice. Also, Aimee seems to be coming together emotionally, better than some," Rowann commented.

Eliza nodded and grabbed a plate of bacon, scrambled eggs and home fries from the fridge. She grabbed utensils and dug in. "Perhaps it would be best if she met us. First impressions are always good. They maybe we'll have a little low key party. Honesty, my sweet tooth is hankering for Ewan's cakes. And the babies want some too." she stroking her swollen belly and reached into the fridge to get some milk. "Babies? You mean like more than one?" asked Rowan "How did you?" "The Dweller let it slip. Twins, Rowan." said Eliza grinning. "John, it is up to you if you marry this girl. What did she say in her letter to you?"

Rowan's mind was blown.....twins. Twins, twins, twins, twins twins. The word echoed in his mind, responsibility X2 "So, we should probably head out to meet this damsel of yours John," he said, keeping a firm facade.

"Well, the beginning really stood out to me. It said, 'Dear John,' instead of 'To the most esteemed John Smith, Prince of Fae:' like the other two. It was a bit like a letter to a friend, sort of conversational. I'll show it to you later. I really should leave now. If anyone really wants to accompany me, that's fine, but I think it might be better if I were to meet her alone first." John said.

Kane stepped in through the door at that moment and opened the fridge "I heard nothing. congratulations...for nothing...you're awesome just because...i'm going to shut up now." He pulled out a bowl filled with an amalgam of breakfast foods and smiled "I'll be in the library if anyone needs me." He said before exiting.

"We'll be waiting with the streamers ready," Rowan said, a smile on his face. "Just be sure to give us some warning, I'd like to be ready to meet this most esteemed princess. Also, Ewan, we're training today. Meet me in the practice room in fifteen."

Kane sat in the library reading as he ate, the Dweller appeared behind him "I haven't seen you in the library this much since you first joined the guardians, your mind was troubled then as well, what's gone wrong this time? he queried, Kane could have sworn he heard a bit of a joking tone in The Dweller's voice. "Let's just say it's ben an eventful month, first the wolves, then the witches, then the outer-space-psycho-lady...now we've got three wolves freaking living with us..." Kane shook his head " Ahh, so it's the wolves again, tell me, do you still hear them? or do you just have the nightmares now and then?" He asked "Both." Kane responded, his usual cheer completely absent "Go away, I'm trying to read." He said, a half-hearted attempt at annoyance creeping into his voice.

"All right. I'm going to get her now, we should be back sometimes in the next half hour or so." John said.

He had figured out how to teleport using the Fae magics, and it was a lot less tiring and much less disorienting than using the regular kind. He focused on being there instead of here and was away. A small mist seemed to linger for a moment, and the teleportation was completely silent, unlike many of the others'. He arrived at the train station, and set off to wait in the spot they'd chosen earlier as their meeting point.

OOC

Rowan walked by the aprentice dorms on his way to the training room. He paused once again, and looked in on Aimee's room. She was quietly meditating on the floor. He smiled and shut the door, almost bumping into Zeke carrying her breakfast. "She seems to be doing well," Rowan said. Zeke nodded and entered the room.

Cedric climbed the steps to the bell tower, hoping no one would ring the bell while he was up there. Last time he had almost fallen off the roof.
He climbed out and sat carefully on the slanted roof.
"Damn Kenny... Always causing trouble." He mumbled to himself.

Kane exited the library and headed for the lab rather quickly

Kane added the final ingredient to his vial, it looked like it had contained liquid silver, his face was pitch black from a few...mishaps. as he turned to document his (assumed) success he knocked the vial off the table, it exploded rather quickly and sent him flying through the door to the lab, luckily the wall was very solid and stopped his trajectory. he activated his communicator "Hey, guess what! I invented a new weapon! oh, and I think I may have broken several ribs..and maybe an arm...someone mind getting me and taking me to the medical room? I'm by the lab, i'll be the one with black all down the front of his outfit"

"On my way.." Cedric said back into his communicator, keen to see what kind of weapon Kane had made. He slid down a drainpipe and went back in through the trap door to save time.
He made his way down to the labs and saw Kane on the floor. His face was almost completely black with soot.
"Wow, what the hell happened?" Cedric said, trying to help him up.

"Iiiii made a silver grenado!" Kane said as he stood, wincing and clutching his side slightly "I set it off by accident but..I made one, nonetheless! and luckily this wall was here to stop me from going to far, good old wall" he patted said wall for emphasis "Not like that wimpy solid oak door." He shook his fist at the large fragments of wood on the floor, again, for emphasis. "So, yeah, medical center would be good." He finally said, nodding emphatically.

"You think?" Cedric said, trying not to laugh. He helped Kane up to the medical center.
"Can you remember how to make it again?" He asked.

"Yup! wrote it all down, kept the notebook in a drawer so it should still be intact. good thing to remember when trying to make an explosive weapon: keep your documentation in a safe place." Kane responded with a large grin "Science:it's one part ingenuity, two parts stupidity, and five parts flammability!"

"Right." Cedric said, this time unable to hold back his laughter.
"Anyways, you should probably lie down for a bit." He said.
