Father-Daughter Time
Avery followed the directions from his GPS to the mansion, not sure what he was expecting. The place was huge, he knew, but what he could see from the gate was....epic. There really wasn't another world for it.

He'd called ahead to let Sydney and Zoey know he'd be coming, but he still wasn't sure what to expect when he pulled up to the front gate. He didn't see any dragons or, heavens forbid, any Mongolian Death Worms, but one never knew with these types, did they?

He just hoped Zoey was still interested in being around him even after all the awesome she was currently surrounded with.

	"Thanks," Dawn replied. She got along well with Syd, so far anyway, though Zoey... well... That was another story. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ohu quietly moves towards the rest of the pie. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A shimmering Marlow appeared between Ohu and the pie. The real Marlow answered Avery. "It has been very quiet up to now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's been good," Dawn replied. "Quite around here. Which I've been told doesn't last." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm ready!" Zoey exclaimed as she bounced into the room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	While Zoey bounds into the room, Ohu finishes his pie and tries to move around the illusory Marlow towards the rest of the pie. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Avery blinks in surprise at the illusion Marlow casts and has to hold back laughter that it does not deter Ohu in the slightest. But a giant smile crosses his face as Zoey bounces into the room. "And here I started to think you didn't want to learn how to train a dragon!" he smiled. "Any final words for the group, Awesome Zoey?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Bye guys! I'm going to go see "How to Train Your Dragon"!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Avery smiles at Sydney and everyone else. "Everyone, it was nice meeting you, and I hope to see you all again very soon." he says, offering a hand to Zoey. "Shall we go, Awesome Zoey?" he smiles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You have dragons in California?" Marlow asked with interest. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ohu's ears perk up, a new slice of pie halfway to his plate. "Zoey is learning how to train a dragon? When do I get to learn these things?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	godlierthanthou 2010-03-31 12:38 pm UTC (link)
	Dawn tried and failed to disguise the look of horror on her face when Ohu asked his question. "You can't," she said quickly. "Only little girls can." That's the best you can do? she asked herself. Greeeaaaat. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's a movie, Ohu. There will be no dragons as pets," Syd said. One had to say these things before Ohu went and did them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	team_mascot 2010-03-31 12:41 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm ready," she said as she hugged her mother. "I'll be good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ohu_amane 2010-03-31 01:09 pm UTC (link)
	Ohu nods sagely. "Ah, a sacred story only allowed to women." Ohu understands the laws of stories. Of course, even those stories were in his father's library -- and he wanted for many years to read one of them, before his father trained him out of it. He turns to Sydney. "Then why do you not take her? If it is only for women..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	godlierthanthou 2010-03-31 01:31 pm UTC (link)
	Crap. Definitely flubbed that one. "Because... because..." she tried, realizing she had no idea how to finish that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marlow 2010-03-31 05:11 pm UTC (link)
	While Ohu's attention wandered from pie to dragon, the real Marlow made the rest of his pie vanish in the shower of tiny lights with the illusion Marlow. Sense of humor? Not her! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I know you will," Syd said and gave her a kiss. "Ohu, anyone can see the movie, but Zoey and her dad are having a special day out together. If you want to go see it, I will take you sometime." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Avery watches the interplay between all of them, noting how they all seem to look to Sydney to explain certain things to them and generally heed her words. She's definitely got an effect on all of them.

"Sydney, we'll be back around eight, if we run into traffic or dragons, we'll call you." Avery smiles, teasing Marlow and Ohu a little bit before guiding Zoey out of the room.

"Okay, Awesome Zoey, dinner first?" he asks.
