"Sorry, Caesar." A pause, and he looks between the two. "Not to be indelicate but......?"

"But?" Caesar says

"Well....." A hesitation "Callidora, you aren't suggesting you want him settled down in that house with a woman and four or five children, are you?"

"Well. NOoo" she admits

"whew" He says

He nods. "And Caesar, you are well positioned to responsibly care for anyone that -does- come along, yes?"

"Construction troubles aside?"

"well. ..yeah. I'm sitting pretty"

Another nod. "And you would. I mean, if it should so happen and the lady in question willing to accept your assistance with a child."

"This is awkward" he says

"You would -not-?" to clarify.

"No. I would definitely help. ..but this is weird" He says

"So, there need not be a domestic arrangement except for support, and I assume, visitation for this delicious Grandame?" A twinkly smile at CC.

"Dude, are you suggesting I knock some woman up just so mom can make booties again?" He blinks

"Sounds good" CC says after a moment

A casual shrug. "It would give you a momentary pleasure and perhaps the foundation for something longer term, and it would satisfy your mother which, take it from me, is no small task. Only if you are ready, of course, and can find the right person." Sip.

He stares at them like they're nuts. "Mom. I love you, but this is weird. YOu know whatever happens... happens."

She sighs and looks at William, "I ask so little of him."

"CHeck please" Caesar says

"On the house, I think." With a chuckle

"Thanks. " Caesar kisses his mom on the cheek, pats EBG on the shoulder and retreats.

CC watches him go, then once her son is out of sight, she giggles.

Well, chuckles "I'm a bad person"

He laughs quietly too, then, trailing off...."Ah, Dearest, we both are. Although, it -is- a solution."

"Well yes. I WOULD actually like grand children, and sooner rather than later, but I do play it up because I miss having fun with Caesar." She says "How on Earth did I of all people raise someone who sees the good in people?"

"However did I end up with you?" Fondly.

"Well, I could boast and say I get what I want, but.." She puts her hands in his, "I think maybe we're just incredibly lucky"

He nods. "That must be it, as I cannot be blessed."

"Oh... fiffle."

He takes her hand and kisses it.

She basks in his affection. "You do realize I'm so tempted to fair fortune his fertility right?"

He chuckles but then frowns sternly and tsks. "Cheating."

"Yes. I suppose" She does have the decency to look a little chastised. "I suppose at my core my unseelie side does want it all. And thanks to yoU I have so much"

A sly grin. "Well, I can hardly complain about that."

"You could, but your'e too classy to. " She leans over the table and kisses him, "ANy song you want to hear while I'm up there?"

"Fever, or Sway." Naming two of his favorites.

"I'll do both" she rises, kisses him once more, and then sways off

He watches her go with a smile.

Her perfromance, as always, is electrifying.

And to think.... she is his. Stupifying.

She appears to have zero complaints.
