The World Remastered

Grig: He will never be the exact person he once was, too much has happened, but with time and hard work, I think he can get very close to who really is. He is needed by so many, and wanted by so many more, he has to start realizing that and stop being so damn selfish. I have hope this time will be the one that works.

Too much time has passed *Mir nodded, trying her best to understand. She wiped at her eyes, doing what she could to erase the tears out of existence again but her eyes were already red and her nose was already starting to run. There was no denying that she had been crying but maybe he didn't have to be in the act when Dylan came back in* I hope so too. I miss my Da, I want him back.

Grig: Not really too much time, but too many things have happened in that time. You get your dad back honey, the dad you need now and the person Dylan needs to be now. He frowns, really wishing he could hug the girl and comfort her. She feels a squeeze from invisible arms Best I can do at the moment.

Dylan: After gathering a small bag and placing the note he had already written on his mom's bed, he takes a quick look aroudn the apartment. With a sigh and a nod he heads back up to the pool. Seeing Mir he frowns then goes to her and gathers her up in his arms I am so sorry Princess, I am sorry for leaving you, but so much more sorry for not doing it sooner. He places his hands on her cheeks and gently lifts her face to look at him. I love you, and I will come back, and I will do everything in my power to try and be what you need me to be once I do. He places a gentle kiss on her forehead and wraps her up in his arms again.

Just means you'll have to keep me around to talk about it, ya know so I can get the full picture *Phelen gave her a big flirty smile before grinning a little wider and adding* For science. *He chuckled before sitting down as his Dad started to serve* Smells great!

*Mir started to open her mouth to say something but stopped it, swallowing the nasty comment like someone would bile. She felt the hug and replaced the bitterness she still tasted with more tears. She let out a soft heh before giving him a watery smile* Thanks Unk. For everything. *She sniffled hard, beginning to battle the tears again when Dylan reamerged. About the time he hugged her she lost the battle again. She wrapped her arms around him and cried into his shoulder. She sniffled when he tilted her face up, blinking at him* I love you too Da. And I'll be waiting for you. *She tightened her grip on him again* Just come back

*Phelen was still grinning and even threw in a wink he she repeated him. It wasn't until his Dad gave him that smile that a little embarrassment made it took his expression. He had started on the stir fry instead of the rice first, handing the plate over to Tawny when he was done. He had just taken a bite of some of the veggies when Tawny asked and Phelen choked. He coughed hard against the killer veggies, grabbing his napkin quickly* School *He coughed out in between breaths* Met..at..school

*Mir let out choked chuckle and grabbed his pinky with her own* It's a swear *She smiled and pushed their thumbs together to seal it* You better go, before Gran gets home. *She said softly before gently pushing him toward Unk* She'll loose it

I'll do my best *Mir chuckled softly, finishing it of with a sniffle* Yeah, yeah, feeding me to the lion. *She teased softly. Swallowing hard she gave them another smile* I love you Da, more than water loves the moon. *She waved softly as the disappeared, not quite able to return Unk's wink. When they were gone she sat on Diane's couch and wept*

*Hunter placed some rice on her plate before offering it to Phelen, but set it down as he began to choke. Looking from Phelen to Tawny and back, she just waited to see if he would survive.* Well, he seems to be house broken, at least from what I a can tell.*She said as she took the plate from him.*So something is working. *She then returned Phelen's wink to him.*

*Phelen thumped on his chest* Just caught...me by.surprise. *He coughed a final time, finally gaining control again. He took a big drink of his forgotten coffee to finish everything off* Thanks for all the support guys, I feel the love *He gave a pained chuckle, trying to catch his smooth back* I only needed the newspaper for a few years.

I'm assuming being a lost boy is something significance then? *She asked as Tawny got Phelen the water. She just smiled as he said feel the love.*

Thanks Dad *Phelen took a big drink, taking the opportunity to decide how to answer the question. He let out a soft ah as he finished his thoughtful drink* Yeah, but I think it would take a while to explain. *He scratched behind his ear* And I'm not sure were to actually start.

*Miranda jumped, a feeling that actually pulsed through the water in the air even on Veckah's side of the door. She sniffled, pushing herself up off the couch to walk to the door. She did her best to wipe away the tears and make herself presentable but when she opened it she looked more like the teen then the queen of fae. She could pull the water off her skin but the sorrow was still plain on her face* Sorry, yeah, everything is fine. Just...*She swallowed, trying to lean more on her queenly side than herself just that moment* just family bullshit. *She smiled halfheartedly* You missed Unk...he and Da are...taking a little trip *She swallowed hard, against the emotion building in her throat again*
