Gavin listens intently, finding his father's voice to be very soothing. His expression is that of someone who is trying to remember something. "... Were they... big... and grey... and did they have like a grey fin thing on its back?"

Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

Edward smiles down at Gavin. His son was struggling to remember things that did, and did not happen. He hoped his story would help ease the process.
"One was, another was blue with spikes up and down its back, and another red with mighty wings. They were dragons Gavin, time dragons! Beings who live outside the circle. So big they could swallow a planet, and so small they can fit in your pocket. They defy the mind, and imagination, what the man saw was just what he could understand. He asked the dragons: What has happened why can't I return? The mighty grey responded: You have left your place, why should you be able to reclaim it?"
"The man had no response, he hadn't thought about what he was doing. He had simply done it. He asked another question: Is there any way for me to return? Can you help me? This time the mighty red responds: It is within our power, but why should we? The man was again at a loss for words. Eventually he responded: Please, I have a family. The dragons fell silent, weighing his request."
"Finally the mighty grey speaks: Mortal, we shall grant your request. Though you will wish we did not, one day you will return here mortal. When that day comes, you will learn that there is no greater tragedy than attaining your hearts desire. With his ominous prophecy delivered, the man was sent back to his home. He then tired very hard, to forget the whole experience."
Echoes stands, and tucks Gavin more snugly into his bed. He bends down, and lay a gentle kiss upon his sons brow, ruffling his hair as he stands back up.
"Not the most exciting story, but an important one. Good night son, I love you."
With that Echoes leaves the room, shutting the door behind him.

Gavin smiled mischievously. "It was a good story, but I don't like it when the hero is alone. You need more heroes to help. Maybe a big scary orc, NO! TWO big scary orcs. And a hafling. Oh, and a mage girl, but she should have a sword too. Oh oh and another mage, she should be tall and pretty, and... and..." Gavin fell asleep at his own additions to the story. *snoooore... snoooore...* *** The next morning, Reuna would awaken very, very suddenly. "AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE AUNTIE!" The young male would be jumping rather violently on top of her bed. "THE FAIR IS TODAY THE FAIR IS TODAY THE FAIR IS TODAY!"

Roleplay posts: 361
Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

The sudden intrusion of Gavin into her unsettled dreams startled Reuna greatly, to the point where she sat up wide-eyed and gasping for breath, wondering why she was being attacked. Then she realized who had awakened her. A smile appeared on her face, and she chuckled as a mischievous gleam passed through those sleepy amethyst eyes. "So it is, my little prince.. but first..."
Her slender hands shot out and grasped him about the waist, dragging him down into the covers beside her. Then they began to tickle his little sides mercilessly. "..morning tickles!" Hair spilled over her shoulders as she laughed. It had been far too long since she'd had such a pleasant wake-up, although admittedly this was far different from the others. And in a way, preferable. There were no expectations, and a smiling little face was a wonderful sight to see first thing.

Echoes pops back into existence within the tower. He had spent the "night" working on his time sight issue. His solution was a pair of glasses, that had taken him...far too long to finish. Still it was worth it, the glasses suppressed his time sight effectively. It was strange, living entirely in the present. For example, he was surprised to find that Gavin was not in his room. He was also worried, until he heard the faint sound of laughter. Following the noise, he comes to Reuna's room, the door already open so he steps. He can't help but smile at the sight that greats him. The two playing like this was a wonderful thing to see. It was good for Gavin, and even better for Reuna. He hated to interrupt, but he does clear his throat.

Gavin was in the process of fighting back, attempting to tickle Reuna's armpits as her gigantic arms overwhelmed him. His strategy was to eventually get her into a headlock. Of course his small hands were all but incapable of doing any real damage, and if he even came close to succeeding Reuna would be more amused than anything else.
At the moment it was not looking good.
Just then Edwards appeared. Gavin hesitated, trying to decide if he should use him as a distraction to go for the (tickle) kill.
After a few seconds Gavin decided it was not worth fighting an unwinnable battle. Reuna was truly a worthy foe. But one day he would return, and be stronger than ever! THEN he would be able to defeat the sorceress in the ultimate tickle showdown!
(Of course by the time he grows up to be tall enough to defeat her, he'll have lost interest in Reuna and would, shall we say, be more interested in tickling girls his own age.)
"What's up daddy?"

Reuna was having far too much fun. She let Gavin get her a couple of times, but she was always quick to regain the upper hand. The benefit of being taller than him! Her cheeks were flushed, eyes sparkling, as she laughed and continued to tickle him. At least, until she heard a throat clearing behind her. Those eyes widened as she froze, whipping her head around to see Edward standing there. It was then that she realized the loose light blue chemise she'd been wearing to sleep in was halfway falling off, revealing all of one pale shoulder and a good portion of her whip-scarred back.
Hitching the sleeve back up with a blush, she quickly set Gavin on his feet, looking anywhere but at Echoes. "Good morning, Edward. If you'll give me a few minutes, I'll dress, and make a quick breakfast before we head to the fair." Awkward...

Edward averts his eyes, blushing furiously when he notices Reuna's state of dress. Well he hadn't seen that coming, thank you glasses. How did people do it? Go around with such, limited perception... He puts a clamp down on that line of though. It was thinking like that, that had cost him so much. Besides, he had certainly enjoyed the surprise, of finding his two favorite people at play. Such sights, were well worth some mild embarrassment.
"You heard the lady Gavin, lets give her some privacy."
He waits for his son to come to his side, before heading downstairs. He heads to the kitchen, and briefly debates trying to start breakfast. Given how well previous ventures, into cooking have gone for him... He elects to instead, pack some basic supplies for the trip to the fair. This may have been a silly thing, given his abilities, but dammit he wanted to feel useful.

Gavin obediently trots down the stairs and into the kitchen. He begins to poke his head around everything, checking inside all the drawers, as if searching for a mysterious thing that he'd only know when he spotted.
Eventually he'd lose interest and wait for daddy. "Good morning Karrik!" Of course he hadn't forgotten about the raven. "Cawk?"

Reuna breathed a sigh of relief as Gavin and Edward both left. That had been.. very strange, and not something she wanted to repeat. She would have to be more careful in future. As the sorceress set about getting dressed, Karrik swooped in through an open window high in the kitchen, alighting on the bench beside the table with a clack of his beak. He hopped a few times and flapped his wing, gazing at Gavin with an intelligent eye.
A few minutes later, Reuna appeared in a simple dress of pale purple, with long sleeves to hide her scars, her hair bound back in a braid. Without a word, she immediately set about preparing breakfast - sausage was set to sizzling in a pan alongside slices of bread as three apples floated through the air, a knife flashing by to cut them into pieces before they dropped onto plates. A cup was filled with milk, and two more with tea, before Reuna sent the sausage and bread to rest upon the plates as well. Quickly scrambling up three eggs, she then approached the table, adding them to the plates and then directing the pan to go soak in the washtub. Offering the two men in her life nothing but a smile, she began to eat. She was still feeling.. a little off kilter, after the.. incident. She couldn't quite bring herself to look at Echoes, still.

Edward adjust his glasses, which was already becoming a nervous tick. This was awkward, he wasn't used to feeling awkward. Then again he wasn't used to feeling anything but a dull, emotionless haze, with intermittent bouts of depression. Actually feeling human again, certainly had it's ups and down, but it was worth it. He digs into his food with gusto, enjoying himself tremendously. He decides to try, and break the awkward silence.

Since her mouth was full of toast, Reuna's only response to Edward's question was a nod of agreement. She had managed to swallow by the time Gavin asked about Karrik, though, and as she tossed the raven a bit of bread, she replied. "Karrik tends to go with me most everywhere, so yes, he'll be accompanying us." The raven squawked happily as he ate the bread, eyeing the humans curiously.

Edward finishes his breakfast, which was excellent. Watching as the dishes clean themselves, of their own accord. Echoes may be a powerful, or the most powerful time and space mage, but little things like that were beyond him. Standing he declares with a happy smile.
"Well then if their are no objections."
Assuming he receives none, he teleports everyone to the fair.

With the return to her tower, Karrik flapped off to one of his many perches, and Reuna stifled a yawn behind her hand. Her gaze drifted toward the sleepy Gavin, and she silently gestured that perhaps Edward should carry him to his room and put him to bed for a nap. Honestly, the sorceress was thinking of taking one herself.. but she would wait. If only because, on Edward's way up the stairs, he might notice a new door. It was on the steps near this door that Reuna sat, waiting for him to return. When he made his reappearance, she gestured idly to the portal with a small, tired smile. "I set the tower to making you your own space, before we left. I figure you might as well stay here, close to Gavin, while you search for a home of your own. It's not like I don't have the room to spare. You're also welcome to stay at any time, for any reason." Indicating he should proceed inside, Reuna elected to sit there and let him explore the suite on his own. In its own little mini-tower on the opposite side of the main tower from Gavin's, it had its own fireplace and deck, private bathing room, and a loft area with bookshelves and desk. It should suit his purposes well enough, she figured.

Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

Edward nods in understanding the Reuna's gesture. Putting Gavin to bed for a nap, seems like the best course of action. The time mage does exactly that, climbing up the stairs to Gavin's room. He tucks his son in, and positions the large penguin doll as sentry at the foot of his son's bed. Edward closes the door soundless as head back down the stairs. He stops next to Reuna, noticing the new door. Her words catch him off guard, the old sensation still so long forgotten as to feel new to him. He walks into the suite in a daze, looking around a smile on his face.
"I... I don't know what to say. It has been a long time... Since I have had anyone in my life, who would do something like this for me. Thank you Reuna, I am touched. I will try not to over burden you with my presence."

Roleplay posts: 361
Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

As he entered the rooms, Reuna pulled herself to her feet with the assistance of the banister, then moved into the space herself, leaning against the counter just inside the doorway. Her hands clasped before her as she looked at Edward examining his new personal space, and a small smile appeared on her lips. "You've become very dear to me, Edward. You and Gavin both. I didn't realize how empty my life was until both of you came along."
Lowering her head slightly, she struggled through the words that came out next. "Even if things don't.. progress.. between us.. you will always have a place here. As will Gavin." Her fingers moved absently, fidgeting with the various rings she wore as she tried not to be too embarrassed. It had been many years since Crulamin's wooing began, and Reuna didn't even know how to be properly courted, which was likely why the Tiefling's courtship had been so.. unconventional. She was suddenly anxious at the prospect of being alone with Echoes, which was.. unsettling. He was still her friend, wasn't he? Yes, but he was also more. A suitor, a potential romance, potential.. lover. At that thought, she turned and left the rooms, moving toward the kitchens, going through the new dining room that had also sprung up in their absence.

Edward stiffens at her words, yes the courting. He had put that out of his mind. Though Reuna didn't know his thought mirrored her's in a way. She may no know how to be courted, but it wasn't like Edward knew how to court. He had been out of the dating game far longer than her. He was suddenly worried, about his complete lack of knowledge on the subject. How to proceed? He was determined not to use time sight, which left so much room for error. Perhaps he should read a book? That seemed like a terribly silly idea. He was about to say something, he was not entirely sure what, when she left the room. Did he go after her? He didn't know. Still it seemed like the thing to do. He doesn't hurry after her, he waits a few minute then goes to look for her. When he finds her, assuming she doesn't run off again, he will rub the back of his head and talk.
"Er, Reuna... Well I am not quite sure where to start. It is obvious there will be some tension going forward. Still I think the best place to start would maybe, be just a conversation? I am not terribly good at this I am sorry. It has been a very long time."

The magic in her tower alerted her to the fact that Edward was coming her way, but Reuna had no intention of running again. She didn't very well have anywhere to go, even if she was inclined to do so; the only door in or out of the kitchen was the one he'd come in through, and he was between her and it. The sorceress had rolled up the sleeves of her dress, baring the scars from so many years ago where too-tight manacles had dug into her flesh, and was busy digging through the jars and wooden boxes on shelves, grabbing various ingredients and dropping them into a nearby cauldron. This activity paused when Echoes spoke, and she waited a few moments before speaking.
"I know, Edward. I don't expect you to be anything other than what you are, let alone the ultimate romantic sweeping me off my feet. That's the last thing I want, in truth." Dropping a few last things into the cauldron, she lifted a large clay jug of water from its place and poured it into the cauldron slowly, keeping her gaze on her task. Despite this, she was clearly focusing most of her attention on Edward, as she spoke again. "What was it you wanted to discuss?"

Edward takes a deep breath. He really should have thought of a topic first. It just seemed like the best way to start, was communication. Talking to people was how he gather most of his information. Except he never really talked to them, he just saw conversations that never happened. That was how he knew so much about Reuna. That certainly made things awkward, he knew almost everything about her, left few questions to be asked. Actually that might be the answer to this problem.
"Well, I had nothing specific in mind. However, it occurs to me that I should offer you something. As you know, I know more about you, than you have actually told me. So it seems fair to offer, to answer any questions you may have about me. To uhmm level the playing field as it were. Blast this seemed like a better idea in my head."
