Violet followed her sister and threw her arms around, or rather as far as she could reach around, the two women. "Yes! Thank you!"
Jason tilted his head. "How does the sky do that then? Is it like a storm?" He wasn't sure if it was Earthly magic that caused it, so he wanted to ask.
"Really?" Max asked, awed. "It...are you sure it isn't magic? The kind you saw? This seems so...incredible!"
Hazel grinned. "I love that name! Painted sky...I want to try to make one."
"The best I can figure is it is a naturally accruing phenomenon. There is electricity in the ground and in the sky. And the forces create this beautiful light show. I wasn't able to ever get it right when I tried but then, I never had much time to try it out," Octavius explained, revealing himself to be quite intelligent from just observing the world around him with his powers.
"And here we thought they were because of the gods," Cassie chuckled, knowing her clan and species were rather primitive compared to others.
Violet gasped and nodded. "I'm sure you could do it! Could you try tonight sis?"
Jason listened quite intently to what Octavius said. "That sounds amazing... But now that you're with us you have as much time to try what you'd like..."
"I have powers! So I can draw them and bring them to life here!" Hazel exclaimed, excitedly. "We should do it tonight, Vi! You can help me withpicking the colors!"
Vera chuckled, nudging Cassie with her shoulder. "If you want to get technical, I am sure there are gods out there who can and do influence it and make their own."
"Like how you can create flowers? But they occur naturally?" Max asked, smiling to himself when Vera nodded a confirmation.
Octavius bumped his forehead against Jasons with a smile. "On, I know. But I am enjoying living life as is. Spending it with you."
"Yes! Let's do it tonight! I can already see so many colors for you to use!" Violet gasped and clasped her hands together.
"You know, you're probably right." Cassie chuckled.
Jason smiled broadly. "Well, just know that if you ever want time to, I don't know what you'd call it, I suppose studying your powers works..."
Hazel giggled, hugging her sister. "This is going to be so much fun!" She laughed harder when she heard Magda switching languages. "Miss Magda, you are talking in both! In your pretty words and in ours. It's funny and musical!"
Max wrapped an arm around Cassie's waist, at ease.
"I think that would be fun. Especially if you wanted to come watch," Octavius agreed.
Violet was practically shaking with excitement. "Yes!" She laughed as well, but she wasn't laughing at Magda, she was laughing with Magda, who understood the difference.
"I'm so glad that our girls are so quick to make friends... Though that's something we'll have to be mindful of..." Cassie said seriously. She didn't think that either of the two women would hurt their girls, but she knew that others would take advantage of that.
"Of course I would like to watch. As long as you want me there, I will be there." Jason smiled.
"We'll help you, Miss Magda," Hazel reassured her, feeling safe and at ease with both woman. She didn't get the uneasy feeling she had with a lot of adults frowing up alone with her sister.
Max nodded gravely, knowimg all too well what could happen. "Something to really be mindful of," he agreed. "They are so important to me, to us..."
Octavius smiled, kissing him. Then he helped himself to some pancakes. "Part of the fun is getting to share it with friends and loved ones."
"Oh yes! We can definitely help!" Violet looked over to Hazel, a serious look on her face. "We'll have to start giving her speaking lessons... Or at least have her practice with us..."
Cassie nodded before her eyes widened and she fell into a fit of laughter at how serious Violet was speaking, or thinking rather.
Jason stole a forkful from Octavius' plate with a smirk. "I have to agree, sharing is the best part."
"Oh yes! That is a wonderful plan! I agree, sis. Let's do that! Miss Magda, is that okay?" Hazel asked, turning her big green eyes on the woman.
Octavius looked mock horrified before leaning in to nuzzle Jason. "Oh, you are so lucky I agree!"
Violet had turned to await Magda's reply, and when she gave it she all but lunged forwards to hug the tall woman. "Yay! We get to be teachers!"
Jason chuckled and tilted his head so he could sneak a kiss in there. "And I agree that I'm so lucky,"
Hazel cheered as well before dancing around Magda and her sister.
Max tried so hard not to burst out laughing and leaned into Cassie's shoulder, shaking with his effort to not laugh so loud. "Have I mentioned how much I adore our family? Seriously, we have the greatest group of people!"
Octavius sighed happily, completely melted after that kiss.
Violet was laughing as she clung to the much taller woman. This was a wonderful day!
"The very best!" Cassie supported him as she herself shook bodily as she restrained herself for only a few moments before succumbing to the laughter that spilled out.
Jason ran a hand along Octavius' hair, very lightly and carefully so as to not get it caught.
Andromeda couldn't help but from as she sat down with her pancakes. "I do believe I like this very much. Living here, that is."
Max grinned over at her, wrapping his arms around Cassie. "Glad you approve."
Octavius leaned into him, nearly purring.
Violet joined Magda in the laughter and the happiness!
"I believe they do as well, or rather it looks like they do. I wouldn't really care where I lived, as long as those two were happy and healthy." Cassie said with a smile in response to Andromeda as she hugged Max.
Jason smiled happily as he continued gently.
Andromeda watched the trio, nodding. "That is true. They seem to be so happy here. With their family. You all have been wonderful. May I ask what you do besides the rebellion?"
Max chuckled, kissing Cassie's cheek before replying. "I work in the military. I've actually got a meeting in town today. One I really couldn't care less about but they'd send someone out tothe house searching for me if I don't go. So Cassie and I will have to go to that later, if she is up for it. I understand if you want to stay with the girls. I like the idea of you guarding them after what happened."
"We can look after the girls," Octavius pipped in, still leaning into Jay and his petting.
Cassie nodded. "And me, well, I follow Max around and try to make sure he doesn't get into too much trouble." She chuckled. "Thank you two!" She replied when Jason piped up agreeing with Octavius.
"Aren't you hungry?" Jason asked with a smile. He was happy that Octavius liked what he was doing, but he didn't want him to miss out on the meal.
Andromeda giggled, both listening to the adults and to the girls and Magda. "It seems like he would get into trouble a lot, huh?" She teased lightly.
"We would be happy to! And I am. Just savoring these," Octavius said, nuzzling Jay before offering him a bit and taking another himself.
Cassie nodded. "Oh yes, lots of trouble. Though he's saved my furry rump more than just a few times." She grinned.
"I see," Jason hummed as he happily took the bite and then went after his own pancakes.
Max smirked, wrapping his arms around Cassie. "The cutest furry rump there ever was," he told her affectionately.
"That is really cute and sweet. Sadly the world we live in makes that a necessary occurrence. Hopefully one day there will be peace," Andromeda sighed, nibbling on some bacon.
Octavius helped himself to some more pancakes, enjoying himself.
