Broken Pieces-Chp45

(meanwhile, in the living room, the others are chatting and catching up on stuff)

Wit: (sharing one of his famous jokes with Hater) ... And then the dog's owner goes, 'Genius my foot. That's the third time he forgot his keys.' :D

Hater: [LOL-ed at the joke] Oh my grob, tht's brilliant, hahahahaha~~ I can see why ur a stand-up comedian

Wit: ^^ It's a living. I also tend to do the relatable jokes too, mostly involving family moments. :)

Hater: Well, ur humor certainly paid off. Oh, Firefly, right? U say ur a fashion designer

Firefly: Yup, n part-time model. Ma kept all the magazine covers n pages tht has my shots in it. This dress? Designed it myself.

Hater: Nice

Angel: (nodding silently, sitting with his wife and notices Sylvia enter)

Sylvia: [sees the siblings] Oh, u must be Wander's big bros

Firefly: Ahem, big sis

Sylvia: Right, and big sis. I'm Sylvia

Wisp: Ah, Hater's noble steed

Sylvia: Steed? [raised her brow at Hater]

Hater: [looked away whistling, feigning ignorance]

Angel: Wisp, you know better then that.

Wisp: Sorry, can't help it. I tend to say wat's in my mind without thinking. Forget I said it [giggled]

Sylvia: [shrugged it off] Sorry to bother u guys, bt I need ur help, Wildflower. Wander's hungry n I need to knw where all the things r to prepare Wander's meal

Wildflower: Ooh, don't mind if I do. Excuse me, evryone [followed Sylvia to the kitchen to help her out]

Hugo: (turns to Hater) Was really nice you helped out our little brother.

Hater: Oh, shucks, I'm just doing wat anyone would've done in my position

Wit: Not to mention he is the first one of us to get hitched. (looks at Firefly) Some of us didn't get such luck. >>

Firefly: U should be looking at Hugo. He snagged himself a rich widow wen he babysat her kids. Isnt tht wat u told Ma during our last video conference call, Hugo?

Hugo: (blushing) Well...sh-she's a nice person...

Wisp: Ooh, how nice? Like "nice boss" nice, or "nice girl" nice or "great in bed" nice? [giggled]

Firefly: [giggled along with Wisp]

Hater: [rolled his eyes humorously at them]

Hugo: O///O h-hey!

Angel: Wisp...

Firefly: Oh Pa, don't be such an ol' fuddy-duddy. Wisp means well, reli. He's just happy for Hugo

Hater: Umm, so Treetrunk, heard u escaped frm tht native tribe n hung out at some kind of wild Wild West planet. How's that going for ya?

Treetrunk: >> Just glad to be out of there while I had the chance. And as for the western planet, :) it's a pretty nice place.

Hater: Planning to stay there long?

Treetrunk: I was thinking of moving to a jungle themed planet after a while.

Wit: Cause of trees? :p

Treetrunk: >_> save it for the stage.

Angel: ^^;

Firefly: Wat abt u, Wisp? Where's ur partner? I thought u hv a travelling buddy

Wisp: Oh, he wanted to go bk to his home planet to visit his folks, so I dropped him off there before I met up with u guys. Chk out all the plcs we've been [took out his space tablet n showed them pics of plcs n planets they've visited]

Angel: Definately a lot of places you've visited.

Firefly: Cool. I'd love to meet him face to face someday

Hater: U all lived a pretty charmed life

Wit: :) Sure did... hopefully, our little brother gets all the recovery he needs.

Firefly: Amen to tht

Wisp: Dont sell urself short, Hater. Our lil bro lived a charmed life too. He found u

Hater: [scratched his chin awkwardly] Aww, shucks...

Angel: Indeed...

(yelp comes from Wander's room suddenly)

Hater: Wander?? [got up n ran towards the room] Wander, wats wrong?!

Wander: O_O (just in slight shock)

Miracle: ^^ (sitting there, giggling, showing tiny transparent wings...that were glowing green)

Hater: Woah, I didn't expect that. Is that supposed to happen with Angel Nomads?

Wander:...Papa did say Angel Nomads get their wings at a young age...but nothing like that...

Miracle: (reaching for Hater) ^^

Hater: Aww, who's an angel baby? Who's Daddy's little angel baby? [picks her up] Yes u are, yes u are~~♥️♥️

Miracle: (giggle)

Wander:... :) Must've something else she picked up from Daddy.

Firefly: [peeks in to see] Ooh, Pa, u might wanna see this

Angel: (looks in) :o...

Miracle: ^^ (hugging Hater's face)

Hater: [chuckles as he nuzzled her n peppered her with kisses]

Firefly: Isn't tht the sweetest thing~ <3

Wander: :) ...

Angel: :) ...perhaps I should give her the flying lessons when the time comes.

Wander: (thinks)...Alright, Papa.

Sylvia: Soup's on, Wander-- [sees Miracle n her wings] Is tht wat I think I'm seeing?

Hater: Isnt my little princess amazing? [had the stereotypical proud Papa face on, his eyes sparkling with wonder]

Wander: (chuckle) She sure is.

Sylvia: [rolled her eyes as she lay a tray of hefty amt of food] Here's ur food, buddy. Eat up. I knw its a lot, bt trust me, u'll finish it before u knw it, n u'll need it

Wander: (nod) Thanks, Syl. (starts eating what he can)

Sylvia: [watches as Hater continues to fawn ovr the litter] Kids sure are full of surprises. I've nvr seen Hater so happy since he managed to track dwn a rare limited edition game tht has been out of production for decades

Wander:...He's never thought about having a family before?

Sylvia: Not reli. I mean, he would take responsibility for certain things, but not big ones, n he didn't seem like the settling down type, wat with all his flings. I'm surprised he's even taken responsibility at all wen we found out ur pregnant. N now look at him, being a daddy n ready to propose to u and all. Yeah, ur mom told me abt that [grinned] Look at u moving on the up and up. Do I hv to start calling u Lord Wander after ur married? [chuckles as she nudged him playfully]

Wander: ^^; No one's saying you have to.

Sylvia: Heh, its just a thought, is all. Ur still gonna be my lil buddy

Wander: ^^ And you're my big sis. Well, Firefly is now a sister, but still, you get the idea.

Sylvia: I hear ya, buddy. So wen's the wedding?

Wander: We still have to plan when that'll happen...

Sylvia: Oh right, ur still recovering n all. I usually don't do the girly stuff, but... Any chance I'd be ur maid of honour?

Firefly: Ahem~ I heard that. If anyone's my baby brother's maid of honour, it'll be me

Wander: ^^;;; Guys, you both can share the role of Maid of honor.

Firefly: Nuh-uh~ There's no such thing as two maid of honour. There can only be one

Sylvia: I guess we will hv to compete for it then [her challenge mode on]

Firefly: Oh u are so on

Wander: (facepalm)

Sylvia: I challenge u to a jellyfish grape pie eat off. First person to hurl loses

Firefly: Oh, I am so ready

Sylvia: Shall we do this at Hater's ship cafeteria?

Firefly: Bring it on!

Hater: Uhh, don't I get a say on this...?

Firefly&Sylvia: Nope!

Peepers: -__- I'm not cleaning up whatever messes you ladies leave.

Sylvia: Don't worry, Westley can do it. Shall we?

Firefly: After u [followed Sylvia's lead]

Wildflower: [giggled as she watched them leave] Don't hv too much fun now~ [shakes her head humorously] Ahh, brings bk memories...

Angel: ^^; Yes, memories.

Hater: Memories?

Wildflower: Oh, Firefly has a bit of a competitive streak wen it comes to trivial stuff. Remember last time wen Treetrunk challenged her to go ard Janet by swinging on Janet's vines only?

Hater: U...U mean as in circle the entire of Planet Janet?

Wander: Yup, they really did that.

Hater: I'm surprised they're still alive

Wildflower: A couple of broken bones here n there, but we Nomads r made of tougher stuff

Angel: Indeed. (hugs his wife) Just like that one time you really proved your strength, didn't you?

Wildflower: [blushed n looked away, pouting] Its not something I'm proud of

Hater: Huh? Wat did she do? [was curious]

Angel: Managed to beat down a small flight of Doom Dragons first time we've met; I was having trouble with an aching wing and she happened on the scene and well...you know.

Hater: Wow, u defeated them all alone? Without powers? That's pretty impressive, Mama

Wildflower: I'm more of a lover, not a fighter, but I couldn't just let a friend I just met get hurt. I just had to help him, n I had the hat's help he was wearing at the time

Wander: And it turned into more then just friendship from there, didn't it, Mama?

Wildflower: [blushed n smiled] Yes. We became traveling buddies for a few yrs n our relationship blossomed frm there. Then Angel had a permanent injury that affected his right leg, so we decided to settle dwn n just our luck to discover Janet

Hater: Permanent injury? Is that why u needed the cane, sir? What happened exactly?

Angel: Was flying...then somehow had a crash landing...

Wildflower: Let's just say it had to do with an unpleasant encounter with a troll terrorizing a bunch of sheep people

Hater: Ouch...

Wander: Sheep people... :O Wait...

Wildflower: U knw abt them, sweetie?

Wander: I recall running into one while traveling...what's his name...Cash... Cashmere, it was Cashmere!

Wildflower: Yes, now that u mention it, that's the name! Oh he is such a hospitable person, n he even gave some of his fur for me to knit a blanket for Angel while he is recuperating from his wounds. We should visit them again sometime, shouldn't we, honey?

Wander: :) Can we?

Angel: (nod) Of course.

Hater: I'm cool with it. Been meaning to let u take a ride on my ship n travel ard [smiled at Wander's parents]

Wander: :) Mhm....Say, Hater?

Hater: Yes, my star?

Wander: You've already made a nursery on your ship for the babies. Perhaps my room can be turned into their playroom and I've moved into your room since we will be getting married. Been meaning to ask that for a while, actually.

Hater: That's a great idea. Why didn't I think of that? He he, alright, I'll ask Peepers to prepare the schematics. U can tell him how u want the playroom to be designed

Wander: ^^ Sounds good. (leans up to kiss him)

Hater: [kissed him bk]
