Out For a Swim (Open)
Cait couldn't wait to get down to the bay and see Hope from the moment they had returned to the Titans Tower. As soon as she felt settled in, she slipped on a bikini and headed down to the water. There was no sign of Hope and her pod, but Cait sent out a message. If they were anywhere in the area they would hear it and come.

Cait smiled and swam out to the mouth of the bay and waited.

It didn't take long for a pod of dolphins to appear and Cait immediately spotted Hope. She kind of stood out. Hope! As soon as the dolphin was close enough Cait wrapped her arms around the pink dolphin.

"I remember her, Cerdian. A blind man could see that you love her and I doubt that she has forgotten you. You're pretty hard to forget."

Cait sent Hope out to rejoin her pod. They didn't need to be interrupted by a dolphin wanting attention.

"If you love her as much as I know you do, then it doesn't matter that she's having another man's children. They're a part of /her/ and you love /her/. Focus on that. Love /that/ part of them."

Cait put a hand on his shoulder. "Love knows no bounds and has no conditions. Listen to your heart and follow it."

"But isn't that selfish of me? To want her love when her children have to come first in her life?" he asks. He's wrestled with that question for the a few weeks now, every since he last spoke to her.

"She told me she loved me a few weeks ago and I...I walked out on her Cait. I didn't think it was right to tell her that and I was still hurting over everything. I let her believe that my father arranged for me to marry another woman because we were fighting.

I know it was petty, but I didn't want to look weak to her." he says.

"Do you think love can overcome foolishness?" he asks.

"Yes," Cait said with no little certainty. "Love can overcome anything. Even death. Arthur and I have our problems, but it doesn't mean we don't love each other. It's that love that will eventually make us reconcile no matter how many times we fight."

Cait put an arm around his waist.

"Cerdian, it's not selfish. We are capable of so much love and not all of has to be for one person or for just our children. I love Ty with all my heart, but I love others too. You, my parents, the Titans, Hope. Ty does not take any of my love away from the others no matter how much I love Ty. Lian's love for you will not take any away from her children."

Cerdian seems buoyed by Cait's words, nodding gently and smiling at her. When did she become so wise?

"You are wise beyond your years, Princess Little Fish. Thank you for listening to me. I guess I know what I need to do, but I needed to hear it from someone else so I didn't think it was just what I /wanted/ to do." Cerdian says.

"You will be a wise queen, someday, and you will lead our people well." Cerdian tells her.

"I have seen it."

	"From your lips to Poseidon's ears," she said with a small smile. She hugged him. "I wish you the best of luck and that you find happiness with Lian. I will even say a prayer to Poseidon for you." She kissed his cheek. "If Ty didn't hold my heart I would have been honored to have married you. I love you, Sharkbait. I always will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If I wasn't in love with Lian, I would be honored to call you my wife, Caitria. I am glad that Ty makes you happy, though." Cerdian smiles, hugging her. "Please say hello to Ty for me when you see him again. And Iris as well. I must return home and find a way to keep my father from marrying me off to another noble." he says.

	"I will, but you must visit us soon. Iris misses you." Cait released him. "Tell your father that as Princess of Atlantis I hereby order him to let you marry whomever you want. I out rank him if Arthur hasn't stripped me of my birthright. I can put it in writing if you need it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I will hold you to that, Cait. I may need the intervention before too long." Cerdian says. "I will go to Lian and tell her how I feel, as soon as I find a suitable way to apologize." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just let me know." "Flowers and chocolate aren't a bad idea," she said. "But she'll forgive you no matter what. May Poseidon be with you." (Reply to this)(Parent)
