Mavis was quite for a few long moments. "You shouldve thought about that. I would've the one responsible for hurting our kids, I cant even let Emily or Astrea near me right now. What makes you think Ill want a hug, if the people who want to be there for me, cant even try comfort me without risking their own lives?. And to make it worse, the one person I wouldve let try comfort me, choose a stupid interview over the kids' safety. " By the time she was finished she had cleared all the make up off her face. She was clearly trying to avoid talking to him, and make him feel upset, just as upset as her. Of course she would, he disappointed her. Well, he did for a little while, she was happy he was home and a job he was happier with now. She... she just didnt want to bury her face into him and stop him from doing something he wanted. She hadn't realised while she was thinking, that she had begin to cry again. Everything was extremely overwhelming for her. If Jason (her dad) was here, he'd at least get her calm enough to realise Eider was sorry, and that he was greiving too. She then murmured quietly "If you're not gone er, yeah.. fine.. come in..but don't touch me..." She didn't want to be hugged by him, in a way, she wanted him to feel the way she did. The one person you trust and feel safe with, not really being there. Even though Mavis' body was there, who she really was wasnt. Meaning, her body was in the bathroom and even though she was alive, it didnt mean she was really who she was, just a mere figure of who she was, because her grief was really overwhelming. She couldn't smile and joke around. Who was there (besides Eider and family) to listen to her petty rants and stupid bad puns? She saw Mira as more than a friend. She seen her like a sibling, a family member. She really wanted Eider to ignore the 'Dont touch me ' comment as she really needed a hug and to be held onto.


((I warned you in pm about this a while ago anyways.(That she was gonna be petty and stuff) ))

Eider had never understood girls. He tried, he really did -- he had to, considering he lived with 3 very dramatic girls -- but he was getting a "don't touch me" vibe as well as an "I need a hug" one from Mavis right now. He wanted to hug her, but he was also a little afraid she might slap him if he tried to. Glad that she had at least permitted him to come into the bathroom, he opened the door and clicked it shut behind him, leaning against the wall and watching Mavis mess with her makeup. He was quiet for a few seconds, contemplating what to say, and finally found the words he was looking for. "Mavis," he said as gently as he could, taking a few steps to stand next to her, "there is one thing I never told you about Mira that I think you might like to hear." He stared at the reflection of his own hands in the mirror, avoiding eye contact with Mavis until he figured out whether she wanted a hug or not. "Mira always hated crying, which I'm sure she's told you before. Whenever she got upset, she'd hold in her feelings until she broke down in front of someone, usually me before she met you. When I was dating her, I always thought I liked that about her, how she kept her feelings to herself. It wasn't until you came into my life that I realized emotions are sometimes meant to be shared." He smiled slightly, memories flashing through his head from the first time he met her. "Remember that day at the mall when we met for the first time? Something about you brought me out of the shell Mira had convinced me into. She taught me to hide my feelings, but you seemed to tell me the exact opposite. I was torn between you two until I realized that I knew you. I understood you in a way I'd never understood Mira, and it was because you shared a part of yourself with me, something Mira never did. And over the years, I've really grown to love how open you are." He saw tears glistening in her eyes as he talked about Mira, and gathered the courage to turn her gently and wrap his arms around her in a protective hug, as if he could keep all the horrors of the world away from her with only his arms. "I need to understand you, Mavis. I need to feel what you're feeling. I love you, I will always love you, and you know we will both always love Mira... You don't ever need to push me away, because there is nothing I want more in this world than to protect you. Seeing you hurt like this hurts me too." He felt like he'd finally said the right thing, and he stopped talking, hoping his words were enough. He rested his chin on her head, one hand on her back and his other twisting a strand of her hair around his finger, their typical hugging position.

((haha, I don't really mind. Did Eider say the right thing? I was having trouble thinking of what he could say. They are the most complicated couple ever lol))

[rainbowwrowell]

((Just to stop us both from having wb, Ill have it be the right thing to say lol. Also Ikr theyre the most complicated ever. ))

Mavis held onto Eider, she buried her face into him. Thinking about Mira, and how Mira had trusted her with her feelings the day they first spoke to one another now amazed her, she was just thinking theough memories she and Mira had together. When they first argued over a thing of lip gloss which Mavis was still convinced was her own. When they went to find Delphine, when the dog went missing, at the wedding when she ran over and hugged her and Eider crying. She was gonna miss the memories now, she was gonna miss Mira a lot. She held tightly onto Eider, her hands gripping tightly onto him as she tried not to cry. She sighed and put her head in the crook of his neck. She buried it into his neck, trying her best not to ball her eyes out. But it didnt work as she broke down in Eider's arms. She was undoubtedly a very very very very dramatic girl. She'd argue and cry over literally nothing. But one thing you couldnt doubt about her was she tried put others first and listen to them. That's why she hadnt slapped Eider across the face when he hugged her, well that and, she was a cop so she wouldnt really be being that good of one if she slapped him.

[size=85]Eider closed his eyes in relief when she didn't hit him, hoping they were on the road to forgiveness now. He stroked her hair and murmured soothing words to her as she bawled her eyes out in his arms. Finally, she started to calm down, and Eider said quietly, "I should probably go check on the girls."

[rainbowwrowell]

Mavis huffed very very slightly as she pulled away from him. "Okay..." She murmured. "I'm not going back out for a few minutes.." She then turned back to the mirror and cringed at her reflection. She looked at Eider and sighed

[spioradkitty]

Eider gave her the tiniest of smiles and squeezed her shoulder reassuringly before going upstairs to check on the girls. He found Emily still in his and Mavis's room, staring at a picture of Eider and Mavis on their wedding. He opened his mouth to say hello when he walked in, but was interrupted by her asking, "Are you and Mama gonna break up?" Eider stopped, shocked by her question. It took him a moment to regain his composure and smile. "Of course not, baby girl," she said as genuinely as he could, sitting beside her and giving her an affectionate hug. "Your mom and I love each other very, very much, just like we love you and your sister. I would die before I broke up with her. But your mother also has really strong feelings, and sometimes we argue, just like everyone else." He pulled a piece of hair out of her eyes and tucked it behind her ear; "Don't you worry baby girl, everything will be just fine."

He went up another floor and knocked on Astraea's door. "Go away, Emmi," his daughter growled, and he opened the door. "Hey Astraea," he said gently; she was lying face up on the floor and staring at the ceiling with a bored look on her face. When she saw him, though, her face lit up and she ran over to hug him. "Hey, hey, it's all right shadow. Tell me what's wrong," he said, sitting on the floor and letting her crawl into his lap as if she were still a little kid. Astraea laid her head against his chest and said with her voice thick with tears, "I yelled at Emily and I think I hurt her feelings." Eider stroked her long black hair, careful not to tug on any tangles. "I was just talking to your sister, and she didn't seem upset about that," he assured her, but he felt more of her burning hot tears fall onto his collar -- Shadow Demons were said in legends to have the "fire of Hell" burning inside them, a myth originated from their fiery tears. "Tell you what, shadow: why don't I take you and your sister out to get ice cream tonight? Then you'll both be happy, and I bet she'll ask you to hang out with her again. Then, all you have to do is say yes, and no harm was ever done." Astraea looked up at him with her blue eye shining with sadness and her red one alight with eagerness. "Ok," she agreed, and he gave her one last squeeze before getting up and going back downstairs.

Mavis had left the house after getting a call in from work about a case they needed her to take. She had left a note on the kitchen table in her neat cursive writing. The note read.
" Hey babe, or Emmi, or my shadow, which ever one of you are reading this. I got called in to collect a case file from work, Ill be back in a few minutes.

Love Mama/Mavis. (Which ever applies to you : D )

She arrived at the station after a while and she clocked in that she was there, she then strolled up to the lift and got in. She got out on the 8th floor of the large building and walked over to her office area. She looked at Henry, her boss and sighed ,"What sort of case have I got now?" He smiled at her softly, "Murder case, a woman as far as we have been figuring out has been murdering younger kids are targeting families. Now I know you have kids and a husband and a family to car for. But nothing will happen to them, we know you'll keep them safe. She's been striking at family restaurants and many playgrounds for kids. She's struck an ice cream parlour named Butlers twice now as well and other federal agents couldn't catch her. We're turning to this section of it and we decided on you and Jay Jay, you guys are our and everyone else's best bet. Don't let us down." He looked at her. Mavis then murmured, fake sniffing,"You always go so inspirational." She then smirked lightly at him. He lifted a briefcase up,"That has all you need in it Mavis. The case file, multiple images of evidence and everything we know so far. There's also some security tapes saved onto two USB sticks. Hopefully you can figure this out." Mavis nodded,"Ill try. I got to get back home to Eider and the kids. I have my office to work in. Dont worry about me." She then swiped the briefcase up into her hands and left. She clocked out, then went to the car. She began driving to a local Starbucks. She got two coffees and two hot chocolates in take away cups. She left them beside her in the passenger seat, since they had the thing that held them all together, (cup holder. Im stupid I know).

When Mavis got into the driveway again, she picked the cup holder up. She put the car keys in her pocket and then picked the briefcase up. Calmly she went back into the house. "I brought coffee and hot chocolate home before you ask me for anything. Emily you in particular." She smirked at her daughter when she ran over to her. Mavis set the cup holder down on the kitchen island and smiled, she mixed some sugar into Eider's coffee and milk into Emily's hot chocolate. She smiled at Eider who was in the room and gave him the coffee, then looked at Emily. She gave her daughter the cup after it cooled down a good bit. Mavis sighed and went upstairs,"Hey Shadow.. I brought you home hot chocolate cause I know you might of wanted it. I know you and Emily aren't talking, but she really wants to talk to you, did you know that? She told me this morning, but I was still really tired and I couldn't get up. I knew your papa would be home soon so he could help us all make heads and tails of what happened. " Mavis kneeled down beside her. "I love you Ast, do you know how much I love you?" She rubbed her daughter's hair. Her ginger ears flew up, Emily was calling her from the second floor. "Sorry Angel. I gotta go help Emily. I really hate not getting as much time with her as we do, how bout me and you have a day out. Just us two girls. No Emily, No papa, No disruptions. " Mavis leaned down, kissed her forehead and left the room.She sighed and picked Emily up,"Yes Ems?" The girl looked at her mama. "The hot chocolate burned my tongue... " Emily murmured. Mavis put her down and rolled her eyes. She went down, got her brief case and sat down at the kitchen table. She had what she needed. She opened it and took the stuff out. It included, several scene images, two USB sticks, a seven and a half page briefing about the kidnappings and murders, a sheet with suspects and peoples statements, and finally images of all the evidence they had so far. Mavis began reading the case briefing, sighing slightly. She sipped her coffee occasionally. And with her hardback and pen, took notes in it when she found something vital to the case.


((My longest rp reply ever. lol I had to bring Butlers in from our first rp cause you know Memory lane. ))

[spioradkitty]

((wooow that's a long reply lol))

Eider took a few sips of his coffee; Mavis had gotten it perfect, as she always did. When she sat down to work on a case, he moved to sit beside her, though he avoided looking in her briefcase in case any of it was private. "Big case?" he asked, noticing the concentration in her eyes.

((sorry lol, Idk what to write here))

[rainbowwrowell]

"Yeah it is... A woman, haven't gotten her name yet is striking, murdering, and kidnapping kids... She struck at the Butler's twice, Last Thursday and last Sunday..." Mavis murmured, sipping her coffee again. She continued reading the case file. "The woman's left little to no evidence... Like we have the sole of her shoe, it comes in helpful when we can use it to track other scenes of where she could have striked again... '' Mavis added as she brushed her fringe back. Soon after, she stood up, grabbed her laptop so she could have a quick look through one of the USB stick's first videos. She began watching it, with the volume off. She paused it at one point, when the woman began entering the place with a small knife. You could see some of the woman's face now. Mavis was great with these sort of cases. She checked the images, Mavis smiled slightly. She had found more evidence in a case which several people had before her. Mavis' ears were against her head in concentration, her tail was curled around her ankles. She quickly screen shotted the image and sent it to her phone using bluetooth. She then sent it to Carla, the girl who worked in the lab.
