Gerd says "Bit by troll standards?"

Olgar comes in.. and immediately finds Tiffany's left hand in his face

"Lovely nail color" he comments

"Mm?" (Yes?)

A nod grunt from Jaymes ("A little if you wish")

"Olgar...." his wife chides him.

She takes a small glass, and there's a cautious sniff before tasting.

Kerri doesn't seem to be being particularly stingy with the mead, even for the younger set.

"oh, that , well, if you approve of the Patriarchy signs of dominion I suppo..." Olgar starts to say.

Tiffany says 'Yay, Patriarchy" And she bounces back to Vali to kiss him on the cheek "In moderation"

"Oh, wow." Blink. "Sweet."

"Can be deceptive, some drinks. but yes" Jaymes nods

A smirk at Olgar as she passes him a glass, and then Kerri makes a toast. "To Vali and Tiffany...may their life together be full of the right amounts of comfort and adventure."

Tiffany agrees "To Comventure"

Gerd says "And finally, a break from raising him"

Vali laughs

Kerri laughs too, as does Sylvi.

Glasses raised, and they drink.

And there's a sound, a familar one... the Rig has returned

Kerri gives Olgar a grateful glance at that sound.

Dag raises her glass.

Olgar smirks.. oh god, has he had another clever moment?

Sylvi drinks; she seems quite comfortable with mead, actually.

Kerri pours another glass. "Who did you get to do it, Olgar?"

"Oh, just who you'd expect" Olgar says

The door opens, and Frank King enters in

"Um..."

"None of you thought to call?" he says taking some mead "really?" And downs it "I had to find out from Olgar?"

Olgar grins "I think you're confusing them...frank"

Kerri blinks, and looks up the stairs.

Frank blinks "Oh? Oh!" And his voice hits a higher octave "Yeah, let me..." And slowly, height is lost... and somethings are gained... as the shape transforms from Frank, to Siv

"Oh!" Sylvi laughs!

"Hey, Siv!" She goes and gives her a hug.

"Hey Siv!'

"Oh you guys are buttering me up, but no one thinks to tell me of dad getting hurt? Is he alive? is he okay? " She does return the hugs though

Tiffany hugs next "Oh so hard to hug you with one hand so HEAVY"

"Tiffany, I didn't think we were that clo.." A startled look, "Wait, is that a ring?"

"We really just got home, he's still sleeping upstairs. Chief is watching him..."

"Um, we've been kinda busy," Sylvi explains, only a little miffed.

"Oh this old thing?" Tiffany says "I only wear this when I don't have any other future husbands"

Siv squeels and hugs Tiffany more

Vali says "now imagine if she squeeled like that while still looking like her dad?"

Outside in the evening sky, a bird of prey screeches triumphantly.

Kerri laughs at Vali.

"Oh!" Sylvi looks in the direction of the bird cry, then looks at her mom and smiles.

Siv smiles at that sound

A shared knowing glance between mother and daughter.

And almost as an echo of the bird cry, a sparkling burst of flame from the balefire.

"And yes, I know you're busy, Sylvi, but where dad is concerned I don't want to..." the balefire flares and she smiles "Well, guess everything really is okay"

Sally Mae comes in "Olgar? Colton wants to know how long he's suppose to wait outside before you and the family come have dinner on his treat?"
