"Pretty sure it is already but alright." Delano leans back in his chair, playing with the fork in his mouth and doing an "mmmh" sound. "Lilya, got a job? A profession? Hobbies?" He was kind of blunt but not in a bad way. Much like Itty, he had an accent and lacked certain words... though surprisingly, he had a French accent.

Ambrose thinks a little and then stands up, leaning over Iteral's shoulder to whisper something. They nod and go back to the conversation, taking their broom. Then, he gently offers Eunice a hand. "Cloudy and family, do you mind if I take Eunice out for a little spin? We'll be back before sundown."

"Oh, I know what you mean. Only during vacation time though, Itty was always excited and took us to some fun places around the world. Ahhh, remember when we went to Sicily and you just couldn't stop talking to the townsfolk in Italian?" Iteral blushes, as Delano continues. "Every morning, you were already gone by the time Lucy and I woke up and you appeared cooking us the most Italian dishes. And you weren't even from Siciliy, you were from Rome!" Delano laughs again while Itty hides her face a bit out of embarrassment. Then the topic change. "Oh, Luciana? She's a sweet button, though about 42 now." It is obvious that the time witch would know her people's age. "She's the outcast of sorts, not being a witch. She does have magic and can use it but I promised her that she could forge her own path so... even if it's a stereotype-"

"Cliché." Delano smirks. Iteral clears their throat. "She became a model designer."

Ambrose sighs and shakes his head. "A rule for the world, Eunice. If something exists, there will be people who like it and people who do not. But I am glad to have met someone who shares my devotion for the stars."

"That's an odd one." Delano laughs again, while Iteral puts a hand on Cloudy's shoulder. "We'll talk later, okay? Under siblings." She gives a heartfelt smile while Delano turns to Lilya, smiling. "My favorite blue aside, how does it feel for you to be married to a deity?"

Ambrose shakes his head. "The crown jewel of adulthood is to never let your passion waver, lest you grow stale and stuck in repetitive jobs. People think astronomy is tiring as well but we seem to love it. Same with math."

"Yeah." Iteral didn't even argue. Instead, she just looks down at her plate and puts a hand on her chest, right over her necklace. A remnant of Ambrose. "... let's enjoy our status as non-gods while we still can."

"My grandmother is still a witch. She is a professor of witchcraft at the academy. I suppose we can try a spell soon. Let me think..." While Ambrose is stirring his tea, he looks over at the "adults table". They seem to be having a moment.

"What's wrong, Cloudy?" Iteral notices the slight tension, tilting their head slightly. "... are you okay?" They ask, looking over at Delano. He just shrugs a little awkwardly, unsure of what to do. "Don't look at me. I always wanted to meet the more celestial side of your family. Flaws and all."

Ambrose chuckles and shakes his head. "You don't have to have magic inside you to cast spells, the incantations are simply commands that maneuver the magic around us. Being a witch - or in my case, a sorcerer - just makes things easier. It's like doing a painting, some might have a knack for it but anyone can do it with enough perseverance. I could teach you a beginner spell, if you like and we'll see from there."

Iteral sighs, still sipping on her shake and looking away. "Gods are a weird bunch... no offense." Delano meanwhile takes a bite from his scone. "Said the demi-god." This time, as Iteral was going for another hit, Delano hit back, turning the shoulder hit into a fist bump. Iteral... didn't even argue. He was kinda right. "Well, at least Cloudy and I didn't inherit their divine tastes. Else we wouldn't have met you two." She points with a finger each at Delano and Lilya.

Ambrose nods and sits down, pushing his chair towards Eunice a little. "Go ahead, let's do it like this so it's a little more discreet. It's a simple spell that allows to transform your apperance, standard curriculum at Luna Nova. Grandmother, a demonstration?"

Iteral obliges, not even really paying attention. She just grabs her magic wand, taps herself on the head and... there we go! "Still wanna kiss me, Delano?" They grin, with Delano just laughing and taking another bite. He didn't answer but... he didn't say no either.

"What if you kiss them at the same time? Would it balance out?" Delano asked, smirking as Itty had given him a light hit on the shoulder because of the little stunt with the straws. But she didn't take it out. "Or maybe the resonance makes it even worse... remember the dissonance?" Delano shakes his head. "What, if they're already gods on another level, maybe they don't follow the logic that you have with your clocks."

Ambrose raises an eyebrow. "A peacock, hm? If I remember correctly, the males have to show off to the females." His other hand already had the wand in hand, before he stands up. "Well then. Eunice." He bows down and the wand secretly moves to his waist, as a large assortment of feathers forms above his behind, like a peacock. They started a gentle mossy green at the base, became blue in the middle and soon formed a dark nebulous blue with small white dots. And every end feather, which were the largest, had a constellation in a circle! "Would this fit an invitation then?"

Iteral and Delano exchange looks, then laugh before taking a bite of their food. "Oh, you two romantics, I can't wait to see your Heavenly Wedding." She sips her milkshake, unaware that Delano still had his straw in her shake, so they're drinking from the same damn thing. Delano explains quickly: "During our travels in Europe, we learned about this fun thing they do in Austria and that other country that keeps suffering from them. They give names to certain weddings, like a it's a wooden wedding after ten years, a silver one after 25... and a heavenly wedding comes after a hundred." He was interrupted. Itty finally noticed.

Ambrose shakes his head. "Oh, I just put some effort in personal hygiene. I like seeing the stars but they should also enjoy staring back. Though, with you on the telescope, perhaps they would enjoy a double system for once." He smirks a little and puts a hand on the table, sipping his drink. His nails weren't painted but they were filed and cut more carefully than typical boys do. Delano was a perfect comparison.

"I'd love to but..." Iteral shows her a picture on her phone. It was still the same flip phone she used during LIA but it was capable of accessing the internet and... it shows a disguised Iteral and Kendo being arrested by the British Police. "We're kinda-sorta banned from there for stealing something already. And that's the one time we got caught." She laughs a bit, while Delano just rolls her eyes. "Your rowdy years were the most fun, I swear to god..."

Ambrose shakes his head. "Not really. I do have many admirers, being the only male in a magical school does wonders but none really seem to share my thirst for stargazing." He chuckles. "Better for them though. My mother has a bit of a temper and that temper comes from her." He points at Iteral with his fork. "Pretty nails, by the way."

"Pretty much your standard wedding, though it took a lot of convincing to have Iteral around my parents. You know how she used to stand towards the French." Delano chuckles while Iteral covers her head a little with her witch hat that she put back on. "I-I wanted to send you a wedding too but... I couldn't find a way of inviting you without Mona potentially finding out back then. The next wedding, you're all invited though." The divorced couple seem to have a surprising synergy, as they also nod and look down at the scones. "... how much for Itty and me to share a milkshake?" Delano asks with a cheeky smile, taking a straw from a milkshake and putting it in the shake that was in front of Itty.

"Well, they seem to manage, so why can't we?" Ambrose takes a small bite of the pie and even he could not hide his smile, it was good. "Your parents seem well-off. But don't worry, I'll judge you for your own personality." He casually takes a piece of the pie and offers it to Eunice. "A unique way of describing a boyfriend but, given your astronomical prowess... I suppose angels falling from the sky are attracted to you."

The ex thing is mutual. With Iteral always at the edge of some cataclysmic schemes, by choice or not, and everything, we decided it would be best if we split up. Lucy was mostly in my care but it worked out. As for how we met..." Delano said, having still a youthful charm to him. It was kind of obvious but Iteral reaffirms it: "He is an anachron like me. I met him in the time stream, or rather, in-between. Caught him and while we were trying to get him back home, feelings developed. Then we married, Kendo even attended the wedding. Also we had quite the adventures, though none as grand."

Ambrose chuckles. "You don't know my grandparents, huh? They are both time anomalies, Delano does not age outside of his own time stream while Iteral has fluctuating age. Though how come your friend count is so fleeting?"

The ring of the door bell briefly got Iteral's attention and she gave a little smile. "Well... why don't you ask him yourself?" She takes her hat and waves it around, as a younger man with ruffled hair, dressed like a college student came in. "Well, guys. This is my ex-husband, Delano Devant." He chuckles and waves his arms dismissively. "Don't let the title fool you, we're on good terms. Hey, Caelo!" He takes a chair and sits next to Iteral, smiling.

"Hello grandfather." Ambrose waves before shaking his head. "I'm sure if you tried, you could find a lot more friends. You just haven't yet, correct?"

"Sweetie, as someone who couldn't even go back to her actual parents because she's been presumed dead, trust me. Having Cloudy back but needing a little while to get accustomed is a blessing compared to it." Iteral sighs and puts a hand on Lilya's, briefly stopping her fanning. "Enjoy that he actually came back." She smiles and then looks over at Cloudy, smiling. Her slightly more mature expression... was it because of the time passed or her age?

Ambrose chuckles. "An astronomical way of saying "let me be your friend", you know?"

Iteral laughs a little. Lilya imitating Cloudy sounds a little like herself, minus the accent. "Aw, don't take it too harshly. We all had our personal crosses to bear and for Cloudy and me, that happened to be three multiversal wars. Cloudy here even had to endure more. I'm just happy he's grown out of it, heh, it's not that great to keep your burdens. Remember how angsty I was back then as well?" She chuckles a bit.

Ambrose raises an eyebrow and then gives a little chuckle. "Well then." He leans forward and takes Eunice's hand, making her show a third finger. "Then how about you let me be a part of the Eunice constellation then?"

"Hm, you're right." Iteral takes the menu and reads it, then putting her contact lens back on. "You know... I don't know this place. So you order for me." She hands the menu back and smiles, teasing Cloudy a little. "From deity to deity. In the meantime..." As she puts her hat down over the chair, she leans towards Lilya. "Tell me, how did you meet."


"More acquaintances, it is not that easy being the only male in a witch academy but I do manage and people do tolerate me. Why, do you have any peculiar friends?" Ambrose tilts his head a little, giving Eunice a curious look. "Or do you want me to be your friend? If so, I have no issues with that."

"Oh, it's like I always told the people in the garden. You know Mona's old books on mythology, those pure-blood gods had their flaws too. Perhaps it is time for a change of scenery..." Iteral takes off her hat and holds it in front of her face, moving a little behind. "After all..." She places it down completely, showing her right eye being an interesting hue of pink that turns blue towards the pupil... wait. The pupil is star-shaped! "It's not like you're the first demi-god, hehe~"

Ambrose blinks at Eunice a little, then starting to laugh a little. A short laugh, as he then shakes his hand. "No, I mean that people no longer see it as a whole constellation. It's like Pluto being a dwarf planet now. Now, it's three constellations."

Iteral looks aside for a little while, though not really because she felt sympathy for the gods. There are some deities in the garden too that she would rather beat with a rolling pin than talk. Her sympathy actually went towards Cloudy and his family, still having to fight things... while her biggest fight is a rowdy student, they fought godly things. It reminds her of her own wars, or rather how useless she was back then. But then, a brief moment of silence later, she smiles. Because this time, she chose it herself. And she knows Cloudy, if he was in trouble, he would have asked her earlier. "Well, I'm glad everything worked out for everyone though! Hm, what kind of a god is Cloudy now then though?"

"Argo Navis, made from Puppis, Carina and Vela." Ambrose looks up at the ceiling, a little smile forming on his face. "Travelling the Milky Way for the Golden Fleece... I must admit, it is quite a spectacle. A shame it is no longer recognized..."

"I teach culinary classes, mind you!" Iteral laughs before Cloudy interrupted and she turns a little red. "Nothing, nothing, to be honest... heh, after the third war thing, I went back to my normal life. Teaching witches during the week, culinary classes on Saturday, my life is pretty boring but content. And sometimes, my daughter or Ambrose over here visit me. What about you though, you all seem to be more on the heavenly side of life! How have you all been?" Iteral smiles, folding her hands together and her eyes wide open.

"Well, my favourite constellation happens to be Cassiopeia. What about you?" Ambrose chuckles, Eunice seems a lot more child-like in her ambitions but in a charming and non-condescending way. She reminds him a little of her grandmother, though less overwhelming. "And you've got yourself a date, I suppose."

"Hey now, my cooking skills didn't come from my magic or my mom! They come from my other mom and lots of training! And foccacia, you challenge me in Italian food? You're on, sis-in-law!" Iteral lifts her fists, smiling at Lilya and Cloudy. She already got along with her quite well, maybe they can cook together after she defeats her!

"Perhaps we can share a telescope together some time and go stargazing together?" Ambrose offers, smiling gently. He had this interesting aura of calmness around him, almost like he already knows what her answer will be. "I am sure together, we could even discover a star or a planet. I will make sure to credit you for it."

Iteral turns a little red, she isn't very used to compliments, both past and present. Though after a short while (and a sip of water from a bottle Ambrose brought), she takes a deep breath. "Cloudy's just an adorable one, I knew he'd be alright after I left but I didn't expect him to just seize the jackpot like that! And who knows, we can have a bake off! It's been a long time since Cloudy tastes the fervor bread and this time, maybe you can taste a different emotion than anger!"

Ambrose shakes his head slightly. "I do practise magic but I am no magician or wizard, though I'm not shy of a few parlor tricks myself." As a little joke, he slides a few cards from his wrist, shows them - all four aces - before letting them vanish in a flick of his hand. "I just finished my studies and plan on becoming an astronomer. Grandmother told me about the stars and how her mother controlled them and it's been a dream since I was little to see the night sky in it's full glory."
