Three's A Crowd-Chp10

[a few days later, Planet Janet was soon in sight]

Wander: (was talking with his siblings, telling about his adventures)

Janet: [was listening n giggling at his stories wen she felt something in her atmosphere] Looks like someone is arriving

Hugo: Who is it, Aunt Janet?

Janet: I'll send my feelers out [chks to see Sylvia in an Orrble Juice bubble waving goodbye to a ship before coming her way] Oh, it's ur friend the zbornak, Wandy-poo

Wander: (sees her and heads outside) (wave) Sylvia!

Sylvia: Yo, buddy! How's it hanging? [lands on Janet n pops the bubble] Sorry it took a while. I was a bit further frm this solar system than I expected. Hi, Janet -.-

Janet: Hey, Sylvia -.-

Wander: :) A lot's happened here. And you've gotta meet our new siblings, too. :D

Sylvia: Wow, they're already here? This I gotta see :) Lead the way

Wander: :D (leads the way)

Sylvia: [arrives at the family cabin] Hey, guys! Long time no see

Hugo: Hey, Sylvia, badass as ever! ;)

Sylvia: U know it ;)

Treetrunk: Howdy, Syl! :D

Wit: Hey! (wave)

Wander: :)

Wisp: :) How have you been?

Sylvia: Great, living like a boss as usual. Congrats on the new additions

Treetrunk: Thanks. They're upstairs with Mama if u wanna see them

Sylvia: Sweet :)

Wander: (nod) Mhm.

Sylvia: Shall we, buddy?

Wander: :D Sure, buddy. (leads her to where the pups were)

Wildflower: [was in bed nursing the litter while munching on a tall stack of pancakes n waffles n a big mug of hot chocolate on her breakfast in bed tray]

Wander: (poked his head in) Hi, mama. :)

Wildflower: Hey, Wandy :) [sees Sylvia next to him] Oh hey Sylvia! Long time no see

Sylvia: Heya, Wildflower :D Congrats on the new additions

Wander: (giggle)

Pups: (suckle)

Wildflower: Thanks, Sylvia. U wanna see them?

Sylvia: Sure [comes in] Woah! :O That's a big breakfast

Wildflower: Eheh, yeah, breastfeeding takes a lot outta me. I'm like 24/7 hungry right now, it's just like wen I had the first litter ^^;;

Wander: :) Mhm. (think) ... (leans to Sylvia) When you have a moment, can we...?

Sylvia: Huh? Oh, uh, sure (thinks: Oh crap, does he know abt me n Fishface (worry) [comes to Wildflower n sees the litter] Aww~~ they're adorable (hearteyes)

Pups: (finish suckling and squeak)

Sylvia: (hearteyes) Awww~~~

Wildflower: (giggle) Seems like u love kids there, Sylvia. Wen will it be ur turn?

Sylvia: Hahaha, good one, Wildflower. Not anytime soon, thank u very much. So wat r their names?

Wildflower: [pointed to each pup] Comet, Cosmic, Star, Rose, Magnolia, and Dahlia

Wander: (giggle) A lot more names to remember.

Sylvia: Definitely, grob, I'm struggling to remember even ur older siblings' names the first time ard ^^;;

Wander: :) Hehe.

Wildflower: Help me out with the burping? [takes two pups to burp] U too, Wandy

Sylvia: Umm... Sure? [picks two more] Like this? [was doing it awkwardly]

Wander: :) Here, like this, Syl. (burps the pups he's holding)

Sylvia: OK... [copies Wander n the pups soon let out a burp] There, is tht it?

Wander: (nod) You've got it.

Sylvia: Sweet [puts the pups dwn nxt to Wildflower] Well, we won't bother u now. U enjoy ur breakfast, Wildflower

Wildflower: Sure. Thanks for the help. Make urself at home, Sylvia. U knw ur always welcomed here

Wander: (nod) (leaves the room with Sylvia)

Sylvia: How abt we talk at the kitchen? I'm kinda parched

Wander: (nod) Sure.

[the duo made their way to the kitchen]

Sylvia: [opened the fridge to get a Sparkling Bobble to drink] So, uh, wat do u wanna talk abt? (thinks: Pls not Fishface, pls not Fishface, pls not Fishface...)

Wander: Sylvia... you remember some of the things the fortune teller told us, right?

Sylvia: Maybe, couldn't be bothered tho. Why?

Wander: She had mentioned something about what was happening with my family and then Mama has her pups... you think I'm thinking too hard on this...?

Sylvia: Wait, ur not saying it has something to do with tht first card she showed u, are u? The one abt the egg flower or whatever... :^)

Wander: I'm not sure... but aren't you also concerned what your told future will bring you?

Sylvia: No, of course not. Like I said, I don't believe in all this dumb hocus pocus stuff. The future is how I write it, not written dwn by someone else who think they knw me better

Wander: Well there are times you CAN change your fate but sometimes you can't. (shrugged)

Sylvia: Yeah, well, I don't believe my fate is set in stone, so I'm not abt to let myself be dictated by how I should live my life by other ppl's rules, not evn fate's rules. They're not my mom, n they're certainly not the boss of me >:C

Wander: ^^;; You've made your point, Sylvia.

Sylvia: Good, now tell me, how does it feel to be a big brother this time ard, aftr so many yrs of being the youngest in the litter? (smirk)

Wander: :) It feels amazing.

Sylvia: Oh? So how long r we staying here before we head off to our nxt adventure then?

Wander: Perhaps a little longer? Mama might need the help. :)

Sylvia: Sure, I'm cool, as long as Janet is cool with me hanging ard

Janet: [at a distance] I'm cool if u pull ur weight ard the plc n not be a freeloader

Sylvia: Geez, eavesdropping much? :^)

Janet: I'm a planet. I hear everything -.-**

Wander: (giggle)

Sylvia: |-(


[meanwhile at another part of the galaxy, Brad was bk at the planet where Demurra is, n he was hanging on the vines trying to get to Demurra's room]

Brad: [struggles to climb the vines n trying to get one foot onto the balcony]

Demurra: (was reading to herself) ... :^) This again, Brad? (sensed his presence)

Brad: Hnnghh! Hnnnnggghhh~~!! [managed to grip onto the balcony] (phew) [heaved himself up until he was finally both feet on solid ground on the balcony floor] Finally!

Demurra: (sighed, standing up to face him) Brad, I told you. I'm happy with the life I have.

Brad: [dusted himself] Don't worry, I'm not here to pursue u any longer. I hv good news, I just needed to tell u face to face

Demurra:... Yes? (folded her arms)

Brad: I, Brad Starlight, shall henceforth no longer pursue u, Princess Demurra Moonbright, for I hv found myself another perfect princess to be my bride

Demurra: (blinked...and held up two fingers) How many do you see here?

Brad: |-( Two fingers, n pls, don't patronize me, Demurra. I did not get hit in the head. I'm serious

Demurra: You're actually serious? :^)

Brad: Yup, super serious, so don't be too upset that I'm not reli into u anymore ;)

Demurra:... You do sound sincere, but I can't help feeling you're saying this to try and make me jealous.

Brad: Well, maybe just a little bit, bt still it's true, I have found my true princess, n he is going to be my bride

Demurra: Brad, honestly, I don't think... :O "He"?

Brad: Yup, he. He's my one true love, I'm sure of it :D [beaming with pride]

Demurra: You...mean you're...?

Brad: I nvr thought I'd be, bt after meeting him, yes, I've confirmed my suspicions. I might be bi, or maybe I'm just attracted to him, coz so far, I don't feel any attraction to any other guys but him

Demurra: Would I know this man?

Brad: Umm... Maybe? [wasn't reli sure if he should tell her at the risk of being made fun of]

Demurra: ... (sighed) At least don't be treating him the way you've been treating me, and if he says no, it probably wasn't meant to be. Alright?

Brad: I've been nothing but nice to u, bt yeah, sure, whatever u say. Don't miss me too much, ya hear? ;) N wish me luck [climbed dwn the vines n left]

Demurra: (shook her head) That Brad... :)
