"Dere she be!" Kiro said with a smile. He gingerly hugged her, as she had the twins in her arms and pulled her up a chair. "You sit and rest...we take care of ye awhile nah."
Kaido stared in amazment at the babies. "Dey bald too pa."

Dark smiles at Milly, even though the girl cannot see. "Yes, dear. They are both here."

Zephyr saw Dark carry the newborns down, and smiled widely. "Twins... And you still have the strength to carry them down too. " The elf rose out of his seat, but by the time he began to move, magus had cut him off, making a bee-line for the twins. The blue haired mage looked Dark in the eyes, then gazed at both of the children. "You bear a great burden now..." he said simply, gazing intently at the twins.
Zephyr simply blinked, standing where he was. "well yeah.. I mean.. Now she has kids. That goes without saying that they'll be a-"
"That's not what I mean Zephyr." magus said, eyes glancing sideways. He returned his gaze to Dark's eyes. "You brought life into the world. With it you brought happiness, grief, anger, sorrow, fear, and pain. You did more than bear twins here, you created two souls."

An agitated and tired Riki placed his thumb on Magus' forehead, shoving him backwards. "Aye she may have but I'm helping. If you want to naysay you may leave." He said blunty as he helped his wife sit.
"He's right Magus...This is a wonderful occaision...and it doesn't always work out bad." Tesshu said. "For once lighten up."

*The mage bared his teeth, eyes flashing for a moment as Riki shoved him back. Pushing his anger down, he tried not to snap at riki.. too hard.* "I wasn't talking to YOU, nor was is 'naysaying.' You'd -..." magus stopped, looking at the twins with a surprised look, noticing something he hadn't before... He shook it off and looked back to riki. "I have far more important things to do than to come to places of birth and start throwing insults around, I'm not that simple."
*Zephyr frowned in confusion* "then.. why are you here Magus?" he asked, not sounding aggressive as much as curious or confused.
*The mage, having regained his composure, didn't bother looking Zephyr's way. His face darkened, and he bowed his head, not wanting to look at any of them anymore. "Because I had a vision... An omen. Something wonderful, and something nightmarish will happen to your children within their lives. Not now, maybe not until they are grown.. I can't help but know this is true. And.. " Magus paused, grimacing slightly as he said this.
"And.. I want to help. If this omen I foresaw means something bad will happen to one.. then I want to help protect them from it as long as possible. They deserve a life that isn't drowned in darkness."

Thistle grinned at Magus. "Well I'll be he does have a heart."
Milly looked in Magus's direction and slowly made her way over to him. Once she had she gently patted his hand with a satisfied smile. "About time." Was all she said before she walked back over to her family and held up her arms in a silent demand to be picked up.

Aegis burst through the door. "What I miss?!" He said. He saw Dark with the twins in her arms, and grew the dumbstruck look he wore far too often. "When did...I wasn't...How could..." He was quite excited. He noticed that everyone was being silent and staring at him. "I'll just- He pointed behind him towards the door- get going then." He ran out the door, a few loud slams from falling down the stairs could be heard, followed by a dissoriented "I'm, OK!"

Riki froze a moment, then nodded slowly. "..We'll talk Magus. And if this is some selfish scheme by the gods nothing will stop me form making you wish you were dead." He said quitely then hoisted Milly up into his arms. "But not now."

Dark's eyes widen as Magus, for once, speaks somewhat kindly to her. That was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. And what did he mean about her children? She unconciously held the newborns closer to her. "I know that they are special... I felt that when I held them for the first time..." The elf looks into the mage's deep, unpenitratable eyes. Something was there... something caring. Something passed between the two, and Dark's usually wary cerulean eyes soften as she awkwardly curtsies to the mage. "I appreciate your comments, Magus. Thank you. May you protect the one you care for."

*Magus felt about equally as awkward. He wasn't used to this.. he hadn't been for a long time. He nodded, as was the politest response he could muster.* "I have never been able to do that. That's why I'm hoping to get a second chance." he stood for a while, noticing he was getting plenty of unwanted attention. "I.. had better leave." he said, and turned on heel, moving swiftly to the door.
*Zephyr frowned...* "I'll never understand him..." he murmured.
