"Ack!"

"Where is this place?" Spinning along. "With my luck, it will be off in ye olde hibernia..."

"Willows... an area in Virginia. Near Roanoake the city I believe" She looks amused "It's Fiona ruled"

"Fiona? Was - I mean, is, Mickey a Fiona, you think?"

"I mean, they get around." A playful wink

"No. I mean a Count Almond rules there. He's a Fiona and a satyr "

"Oh. OH! I've heard of HIM! He's practically a legend 'round the Tragosphere."

"Though I heard of him in conjunction with that mos eisley hold in KC."

"I do not think we'll get an audiance, but at least we know Mickey's home turf" She says "But we can go by ship, OR if you prefer take trods from Firnost to there"

"My parents told me stories about that place. "Never play a set there, you won't get paid, but the people watching pays for itself.' That was Momma Viola."

"My mom has a small statue of her there. SHe hates that. From her time as Holder there. It does have a bad rep but I've seen worse. It's up to you... they have rivers and the like if you prefer to take the narwhal"

"Should we go steal it? We can make it a gift to the Mer outside of your sister's freehold, sink it deep where no one else will ever see it?"

"I... mean my ship in the bottle" SHe blinks "My prize and joy? It's on my dresser?"

"I meant the Statue."

A grin up at her love.

"OH" SHe breaks out laughing "No ... no. Let's not make enemies of family AND Firnost"

"I'll never forget the Narwhal, not as long as the co-captain of my heart also is at her helm. Mmm, Virginia rivers might be too easy to see for NMortals?

"Then let's take the silver" She smiles "We'll still have to ask questions about Mickey, big County"

"Or did you want to do this alone? It's a big thing for you I know. This is your adventure. "

"I was thinking we could ask around here too, your parents and Mountain Vali... maybe even Sylvi? I gotta tell her, and also she being Emissary she might have heard something, unless he was before her time." She muses.

Reaching over she squeezes Siv's arm. "I might need your courage."

"Well, Vali has been around in Willows, even before Gerd." Siv squeezes back "And you're brave in some amazing ways, but i am here for you" A kiss , a peck on the lips, then a smile

"I have so many questions for Mickey. Did he know about me? How did he meet my mom?"

She fidgets a bit, opening up to Siv. "I never wanted to ask my moms about her. It seems too much... you know, like, a violation of all they've been for me. I -have- more than enough maternal love to make up for anything. Momma told me when I was little that my mom was sick and couldn't take care of me. I don't plan on going looking for her, either. But if my Da wants to tell me about her, I'd listen?"

"Well, your da is a pooka, the story maybe a bit... garbled? But that doesn't mean he mgiht not be a good guy"

"And ... if your bio mom couldn't care for you, then giving you to such a loving family like your mothers was the best thing she could do for you. Viola and Vera gave you love and support "

"And nothing can take that away, that you're loved by two great moms. No matter what you learn or don't learn about the bio father"

"Right! I'll see what I can find out asking around before we take a trip out there. If he's.. ah. Well. I mean, there are some pooka that you need to be ready for."

"They can be a bit extreme" She looks amused "But you're the one who likes Rikki"

"Ask around, and let me know when and if you want to travel there. Jonas and i will be there for you" She assures

The two cuddle for a bit. While Piper plans on who to ask about this next
