(TAG: Emma, Ollie, Luna, Mo, Cian [if you want, idk], Sai, Addy, etc. [If you all Wanna xD])
Molleigh scampered around the park, running through little piles of leaves and the browning grass. She giggled and made 'zooom'ing noises and she ran, arms outstretched like wings. She stooped down suddenly, to pick up a pretty little gold flower, looking as if it was slowly but surely dying. She cradled it in her hands, and ran back to her mommy, saying, "ook! ook! Da fwower is sad! Wha kind o' fwower ees eet?" she asked, breathless from her frolicking.
"That's a Marigold," said Amarie with a smile. 'here, let me take that for a sec." Molleigh watched as Amarie put it in her dark curls, and she reached up a hand and felt it there. She had a pretty flower in her hair! "Mary-goldens! Mary-goldens!" she squealed as she ran off again, 'flying' around on the nice, balmy fall day. It was one of the nicest ones so far--with just a little breeze.
Molleigh looked up, and thought she saw someone she recognized. Squinting against the noon sun, she put a hand over her eyes, waiting to see if it realy was who she thought it was--could it be Emma? She hadn't seen 'Em-em' or 'Awl-wee' in a while, and she rather thought it was sad. She missed them, now that she was reminded of them.

She couldn't hold him, but that was all right with him. She was busy holding his little sister. But why? Couldn't she walk? Mo didn't even look like she could hold her head up yet. They stopped, taking up a seat in the grass. Ollie chose to remain standing, looking up at the bright blue sky with a dazzled smile on his face. Emma had Mo in her lap, holding her upright. The baby made sounds, but she didn't speak words.
Oliver cocked a brow at her, putting his hands in his pockets. What was there to do now if Mommy had to watch Mo? Where was Daddy to play with him?
He turned his head, thinking he might have caught the gaze of someone he recognized.

The people she had been watching sat down, and she saw a boy, standing there. He looked just like him... could it be? 'Aw-leeeee!" She called loudly and enthusiastically. She started to run over to him, still with her arms stretched out, going "Zooooo', zoooooo', zooooooooooooooooo'!' She giggled and spun in circles, her dark brown curls flying in a little tornado around her head as she moved.
Amarie looked up as she saw Molleigh running away, really nervous. She got up, intending to follow, until she saw who it was. Damn. It was Emma. And... was that a little girl she had in her arms? Oh, Emma had had her child! Amarie looked down at her own stomach, already slightly swollen. She was going to have three more kids soon. She was excited, but also loving the days where there were no crying little babies to look after.
She wasn't so nervous anymore. Just excited--for Emma. A baby, one of hers and Cian's. How nice! She paused before coming closer. Maybe Emma didn't want to see her? They weren't exactly best friends anymore, so to speak. Molleigh was almost all the way over there--Amarie sighed, and started to follow after her baby again.

He jumped when he heard his name, head immediately going toward the sound of the voice. So, it had been Molleigh. Smiling coyly, he slunk a little closer to Mommy as he waited for his friend to come out of her zooming-phase and over to him. He didn't know if he should approach yet--Mommy and Aunt Ammie hadn't seen each other in a long, long time. Did they still like each other?
"Hi," he opened up timidly.

Saikoro hadn't intended on going anywhere that day. But it seemed that Shay & Adalina had totally different ideas. They had heard Molleigh got to go to the park. Why didn't they? So here he was, trying his hardest to keep Addy and Shay from running off. Oh yeah....and a leash in another hand. As soon as Bernie caught scent of Amarie & Molleigh, he went racing forward. Addy squealed and then ran off in front of him for she could already see them. "Addy..." Saikoro sighed and then tried to slow the dog before catching up. "Come on Shay."
He finally reached where Am, Molleigh, Emma, & Ollie were. He smiled to Amare and then shrugged. "I told you I couldn't keep them home." He chuckled. He didn't even bother to say hello to Em and Ollie.

Shay was bouncing along, happily holding some flowers and humming as she followed Addy, Daddy, and Bernie. The park, the park! She had been pretty jealous, when she had heard that was where Mommy and Molleigh were going. She wanted to go too! So Daddy had taken her and Addy and Bernie and they went too.
It wasn't that hard to find Mommy--because Bernie seemed to know what she smelled like. Or it was how Daddy had explained it to her when she had asked earlier. She saw the dog run off and Addy ran too, but Shay just stayed by her Daddy, humming and spinning and dancing.
-
Molleigh smiled at Ollie. "Hey-looo!" she said quietly. Somehting about him reminded Molleigh of other babies. He looked.. scared. Or at least timid. And Mommy had told her to be quiet around other babies and kids. So she figured she ought to do that with Olllie too.
Her eyes swung over to Emma, and she automatically asked, "Who ees dat?" staring at the little baby. Her voice was still quiet, because she could tell this was a real baby and that she ought to be quiet. "Oh, ye. Haaaaaiiii Em-Em!" she sang softly, still not wanting to be loud around a baby. She hoped Emma was happy with her manners. She liked it when her manners made her feel good and made other people happy.
-
Amarie approached Emma. She smiled at the baby. "What's her name?" she asked softly, gazing with a smile at the little baby. They were amazing--something so small, so fragile looking. And something that belonged to you--something that had a part of you in it. It was a happy feeling.
She turned to Sai as he approached. "I didn't think you would be able to, but it was worth a try, right?" She smiled at him, and pciked up Molleigh swiftly--the girl was probably just a bit too close to Mo. She was curious about the baby, but she didn't quite understand the 'no-touch' manner/rule, yet.

He was late. But it was okay. It was the sort of day for being late. Just an easy, lazy autumn day. And he was on his way to meet his beautiful wife and their two adorable children at Central Park. Life was good. Entering, he found Emma with Oliver and Maura easily. She was talking to Amarie and Molleigh. And Saikoro and Adalina and another little girl. Interesting. Coming up behind Emma, he passed a soft smile to Amarie and Molleigh. "'Lo, love," he greeted Emma, dropping a kiss to her cheek and then one to Maura's nose. Bending, he lifted Oliver in a swift, strong hug, holding him close. "Hello, m' lad," he said, tossing the boy into the air once and, upon catching him, tickling his stomach. "I'm late, aren't I?" he asked, feigning chastisement. |

Cold. But not cold. Warm enough against Momma. Oliver laughing. And then not. More voices. One little, one big, like Momma's. And more barking. She didn't like barking. It reminded her of the barking on her first day and she didn't like that. She cuddled closer to Momma.
Daddy! Daddy's voice and then Daddy's face. Maura squirmed happily and reached out, little hands touching her Daddy's face. Daddy. Daddy left then, to make Oliver laugh. Maura cuddled closer to Momma. Her hands waved in the open air, hoping to grab something. Like Momma's hair. She liked Momma's hair. It was soft and springy. Momma didn't really like when she pulled her hair, but it was fun.

Molleigh's enthusiasm and Amarie's question made Emma look up and smile, not really sure how they happened to pop up so often, but these run-ins... It wouldn't be good for Ollie's growth. He would be too familiar. She dismissed the thought. His memory was still developing. "Maura," she answered, stroking the little girl's thin hairs on her head. "Maura Erin Lawrence." It still gave her a chill to say it. Her daughter. Her daughter. Her baby was here; real. And it was a girl. It wasn't just Ollie anymore... The nostalgia was starting to kill her slowly. Emma looked up, seeing the bright-eyed Irishman come from behind. She craned her neck to kiss him, unable to stand just yet with Maura on her lap--Maura, who was eagerly reaching up to touch and explore everything. "Yeah, you like Momma's hair. So does your brother. Don't tug, okay, baby girl?" She nuzzled noses with her, kissing her cheek before looking around at the rest of those who had congregated. --- Oliver's face fell when he saw Saikoro come up without even acknowledging them. Was he angry, too? The second sturdy voice of his father reassured him, and he immediately reached up to be held, not wanting to be left alone on the ground if Saikoro was mad. He grinned. "No, joo no yate," he assured him, bopping his nose. "Joo play wiff us," he requested with a nod. |

For once, Sai didn't show much emotion. But he seemed rather calm, collected; like he was when he was with Emma before. Not exactly cheery, but somewhat relaxed. He took a short glance at Oliver. He was getting big....that was for sure. But even then, it appeared the longer he was from Ollie, the less Oliver looked like his son and became more similar-looking to Cian. As he stood there thinking, Bernie took the chance to paw at his pants, as if asking what was the matter. Saikoro chuckled a bit and then bent down to scratch the dog on the head. "What's got you, little buddy?" In a way, Bernie had seemed to make up for that empty space Oliver left when Emma took him away. Adalina's eyes lit up when she saw Oliver and raced forward to great him. Almost immediately after she saw Cian pick him up, her eyes widened with fear and backed up as quickly as her legs could move her. She didn't like that man......he scared her. The last time she saw that man, she ended up not seeing her daddy for a long time. Addy didn't want that again. She retreated to hide behind Amarie's legs before poking Shay and pointing at Cian. "Don't go near him, he's evil man." She informed her sister quietly. |

"She's beautiful," said Amarie softly. And she was. Amarie felt even more excited for her little triplets. She hadn't gotten into the swing of morning sickness just yet, but it hadn't come on full blast. She probably had a month for that to start. It was the one thing she wasn't excited about, but... it would all be worth it. Three little babies. Hers and Sai's.
Amarie smiled as Addy hid behind her legs. "What's up, baby girl?" she asked quietly, smiling down at Addy. Her eyes widened at what Addy told Shay. Shay just giggled, and said, 'Okaaaay. I stay 'way." She smiled and petted Bernie. "Bernie be our watch dog! He get bad guys," she said with a nod, directing her words at Addy.
Molleigh turned to Sai. "Heyy-lo, Dah-y Sai!" She had adapted to Addy's and Shay's name for Sai. It was a good thing, though, thought Amarie, because she wouldn't get confused over having two people that she called 'dah'. One was 'dah,' and one was 'dah Sai'.

Cian chuckled as his son "bopped" his nose; Oliver loved doing that. Dropping a kiss to the boy's head, he rested him against his hip. "Play?" he asked. "What're you playing then, lad?" His eyes drifted to Saikoro, offering a soft of acknowledgement to the man. Which was more than Saikoro had given his own son. He didn't draw any attention to it, but Cian could tell Oliver was hurt by his biological father's disinterest in him. Well, he would just have to make up for it. He held Oliver a little closer to him and dropped one hand to mingle in Emma's hair.
In the background he could hear Adalina, Molleigh and the other little girl chattering together as sisters. That brought a smile to his face. He couldn't wait for Maura to grow up and starting talking as well. He loved a busy, active house. Maybe, once Maura was a few years old, he could convince Emma to have another... Thinking back on the trouble her pregnancies caused, his grin faded a little. On second thought, maybe not...

Maura made a happy noise, halfway between a gurgle and a laugh. She liked Momma's voice, it was pretty and warm and meant Momma was close. Maura liked when Momma was close. Momma pressed her face close to Maura's and the baby hummed. Her arms stretched out, one hand patting gently at Momma's face and the other taking hold of a piece of Momma's hair. She didn't pull, just held it, pressed it to her face.
She wriggled a little, upon hearing all the different voices. She wanted to see! All she could ever see was Momma or Daddy's face and the sky or the ceiling. There had to be more. She squirmed with more determination and gurgled a little. Down...
And the next thing she knew, she was down, on the ground by Momma's feet. She shrieked happily with excitement, hands patting at Momma's shoes. She was magic! She could move without moving! Rolling over onto her stomach, Maura took a fistful of grass and tugged. "Ahhhhlll!" she attempted Oliver's name, wanting her brother to see her discovery.

Marveling at the way the little hands reached up to her, totally comfortable and secure in knowing that they were with and touching Momma, Emma grinned down at Mo, sitting her up in her lap instead of holding her so she could see what was going on all around them. She gathered that Mo seemed to want to reach out to the many voices she heard.
"Hold on, Mo," she chuckled, keeping a hold on her as she squirmed. "You really wanna get on the move, huh."
Emma outright laughed when Maura squealed. "Look at you! You're amazing, Mo, simply amazing." Kneeling beside her, she ran a hand over the grass. "The grass is nice and soft, right? Smells good." Her eyes peered up at the boys, and she smiled to Cian before waving a hand for Ollie to come down to their level. "I think she wants you, baby boy."

What had he been playing? They'd just gotten here, too, after all. Oliver thought for a moment, hands gingerly brushing over Daddy's whiskers, almost petting-like, enthralled in the prickley way they bit at his fingers, but they didn't hurt, exactly. He smiled, following suit of his Daddy then, and bringing a hand to Mommy's hair. Pretty. Pretty and soft and bouncy. He liked these feelings.
"Play wiff Maw-wee," he replied finally, pointing to the girl a few years his junior. "An' Addy an' Shay-Shay. And--oo! Look, Daddy! Puppy dawg! Woof! Look, look!"
Maura's scream of excitement caught him by surprise. He saw Mommy's gesture and was reluctant to obey. He kept himself from shaking his head in decline--he had to be nice to Mo. He was her big brother, after all. He had a job to do.
Wriggling down from Daddy's arms, he took a wary step forward, only looking on.

Saikoro gazed a Molleigh with a tiny smile on his face and said, "Hey there my little Molly Mouse." But that was it. That was all he said before he turned his attention towards Cian, who seemed to have acknowledged him. Why? Why would that man even bother? Suddenly, Sai's eyes flashed purple for two seconds. He wanted to say something. He really wanted to say it. But, he chose that probably wasn't the best idea. Even then, shadows were growing around his feet. If it weren't for Bernie, Sai would've become dangerous.
Bernie, being as hyperactive as he was, noticed the little boy Oliver making dog like sounds. He wanted to bark too....so he did, and loudly. He bounded towards Ollie before crashing into the boy and practically knocking him over. Bernie then realized the Maura on the ground and started charging towards the baby with excitement. Luckily, Sai grabbed the dog just in time. "Bernie, calm down boy!" He said, wrestling with the St. Bernard.

Moleigh giggled and nodded as Ollie pointed to her, although she didn;t know exactly why. But then he walked away when the other baby screamed. Did he not want to talk to her? Did he not want to play anymore? Why? Molleigh pouted slightly and walked up to Bernie (who was being restrained by Sai) and started to pet the excited dog.

Cian laughed, surprised, as Maura appeared on the ground suddenly. Well, apparently she could teleport. Toying with one of Emma's curls, he smiled bright. "Look at that! Our daughter's a genius." He chuckled a little as he watched Maura explore the grass around her.
As soon as Oliver squirmed out of his hold, moving toward his little sister, Cian caught sight of the dog suddenly charging toward Mo. He skirted between the two just as Sai grabbed the dog. Scooping up Mo, he got her just as she burst into tears. Holding her against his shoulder, he rocked her gently, rubbing at her back to calm her down. "All right, okay. You're fine. Daddy's got you; you're fine." He knew Mo didn't like dogs very much. He thought it most likely came from what had happened on the day of her birth...
"You all right, lad?" he asked, turning to Oliver. He thought the dog might have clipped Ollie on its way to Maura.

Maura was very happy in the grass. She giggled some more, patting at the strands. She smiled up at her Momma and then Oliver as he headed over. But then there was a noise! A loud noise! She whimpered slightly, recognizing it as a dog's bark. She didn't like dogs. They had taken Uncle Dean away, apparently, and everyone seemed to miss him lots.
Then the dog was running at her. She froze, eyes wide. She couldn't access her powers, she was too scary. But then Daddy was between her and the dog and she was in his arms. He held her close and she took in a long breath before releasing a strong cry. She continued crying, pressing her face into Daddy's shoulder. Her hands gripped at his shirt as she tried to calm down. Her cries slowed slightly into soft hiccupping breaths.

For a while she was distracted by her daughter, who had inadvertantly teleported and was now exploring the grass. On her knees, she kept a hand at the girl's back so that she didn't get the idea to crawl (or God forbid teleport) away. Her eyes snapped up when she heard the abrasive barking from Bernie, and she all but panicked when he saw the dog charging toward Oliver. Before she could snatch him out of the way or grab the dog, he had crashed into the boy, who was sitting on the ground, stunned, trying to get his breath back. She assumed he had the wind knocked out of him from the hit.
"Ollie," she said absently; instinctively, bringing him up into her arms. "You okay?"
Emma's attention was quickly drawn once more to the dog now going toward--holy shit, that dog was going toward her baby!
"Sai!" she screamed out of scare, standing up, going for Mo before noticing that he now had a hand on his pet, and Cian was working on calming down the bawling Mo. "For God's sake, keep your dog off of my kids," she muttered, eyeing him. The mutt had come after both of them--she wasn't going to stand for that, especially when someone of Saikoro's apparent strength could keep a measely dog on its leash.
