Eider put his arm around Mavis and sighed. "Don't let Liam upset you. He's a complicated guy; I can tell he's keeping secrets from me. And I could pretty easily figure them out if I wanted to, but that's his business, not mine." He paused, choosing his next words carefully. "And about not needing him... I've never once told Liam I hated him, or I wished we weren't brothers. I do need him; even when he's not around, I think of his when I'm making decisions, and ask myself, What would Liam do? But Mom and Dad, they got in a big fight with my brother a few years ago when he moved out. Neither of them ever told me what happened, just that Liam couldn't live here anymore. So it's my parents that are the reason he doesn't visit. That and whatever secret he's hiding from everyone."

That night, Liam fell asleep on the couch, Thalia on the bed in the room down the hall. He was just starting to dream, voices slowly becoming understandable and images coming into focus... His eyes snapped open as a shriek pierced the air. Liam was on his feet in an instant, sprinting down the hall to his girlfriend's side. Thalia was thrashing in bed, screaming that the baby was coming. "Hang on babe, hang on," he said soothingly, struggling to keep the panic out f his voice. He had to be strong for his girlfriend- she needed him. "Calm down, it's going to be okay. Let me carry you to the car." He lifted her and rushed her out to their car, sitting her gently in the passenger seat before sliding behind the wheel. He called the hospital as he drove, explaining that his "wife" was going into labor and that they would be there within 20 minutes. When they arrived at the hospital, Liam helped her walk inside, a doctor already waiting to take them to a room. "Right this way, miss," he said calmly, guiding Thalia into a cozy room with a bed and several nurses waiting to assist her. Liam's panic slowly receded as he realized he wasn't alone. I wonder if the baby will have powers? he wondered as he helped Thalia up onto the bed.

She looked at Eider, before staring at her feet again. "He said Thalia would be the only one suffer. Not his own family.." She yawned and curled her tail around her ankles

Eider leaned his head against hers and stared into the distance, trying to think of what his brother could have meant. "I'm sure it's not important," he assured her, thought he wasn't entirely sure. What was Liam doing that he couldn't tell his family. "But I want to find out what he's hiding."

Liam stared into Isaac's bright yellow eyes, sparkling with electrical energy. His fingers tingled where they touched the baby's skin as static danced across Isaac's body. The nurse beside him appeared terrified and mystified. "Is... does that... Is your baby magic?" she stammered, sanding several steps away as if afraid to come near. Liam smiled and gently set the baby back into it's mother's arms. "Yep. I'm a proud dad," he said with a grin, and leaned forward to kiss Thalia's and Isaac's head. "See babe, I told you he'd have powers," he said reassuringly, but she looked unsure. "Baby," she said slowly, not meeting Liam's gaze, "I have to tell you something. Before I started going into labor... I was having a dream about you. About us. And in the dream, I was struck by lightning."

She nodded her head. She hugged into his side.

((Im using mobile data rn. and im sick so my replies will vary

[spioradkitty]

Liam stared at her, questions whirling inside him. She was thinking about lightning and the baby has electric powers! Could this mean she controls her children's magic? Will Isaac be able to control his powers? Does Thalia have magic too? But all he said was, "Don't worry about it babe, Isaac will be fine. My dad's really good with helping children learn to control their magic." He sat down beside her and put his arm around her, smiling at baby Isaac, who for some reason wasn't crying. The doctor had been concerned he couldn't breathe, but he was perfectly healthy; he just didn't cry. Issac was beautiful too; he had lightning yellow hair and shocking yellow eyes.

Mavis sighed and continued eating her food. She rested her head against Eider. ''I love you'' She smiled. Whenever he said, 'ditto' She'd poke him and say his name or wouldnt talk to him for ages until he said he loved her back

[spioradkitty]

Eider just laughed in response and kissed her cheek. "I guess you're pretty cool, too," he responded, only to be poked hard in the ribs. After a few seconds he gave in and put his arms around her. "I love you too," he said with a smile.

[rainbowwrowell]

"Also. Your never getting this hoodie back now.." She smirked playfully. Then hugged into him. She rested her head against him

[rainbowwrowell]

Bump! ))

Eider laughed and twirled a piece of her hair around his finger, making it cold so the tiny curl stayed in place, standing out against the rest of her straight hair. "I have plenty more hoodies," he assured her, and kissed her cheek.
