    Is that important? Eliza waved her hand in front of Calano's face. Calano looked up and smiled. "Sorry, I was talking to Emma." "Telepathy too?" Eliza asked, "Wow." "Yeah, I've had that for a while. In fact, hold on, let me ask someone something." Bookwyrm, have you found anything? @The Bookwyrm

    The police did not respond, instead, they formed a wall in front of the stranger. "You must leave," They said, "We cannot allow you to go any further." When the stranger didn't move, two officers moved forward to grab his arms.

    Calano smiles. Yes, that's probably what's gonna happen. What'd you figure out? Eliza's face takes on a more serious expression. "But, here's the real question. Where have you been? What's been going on with you? It's been centuries, how have you survived." Calano then spent 2 hours recounting centuries worth of stories. The clinic. When he and Wizard were forced to kill Emma. Rescuing Emma from the Nethergrim. The First Chicken Siege. The building of the relationship between Emma and Calano. Wizard's death. Lark's takeover, and the Second Chicken Siege. Calano's death. The years spent in Limbo, crying, screaming. His revival. The retaking of the treaty. Peace with Lark. The wedding. So much had happened. Throughout most of the story, Calano was crying. Eliza cried with him. There was so, so much to tell. But he covered the important bits. In the backyard, throughout the 2 hours, Emma felt parts of Calano's emotions.

    Eliza turns around with a sly grin. "You and Emma, huh? Can't say I'm surprised." Calano blushes, grins, and rolls his eyes, all at once. "Mom, I just found you. You're really gonna start our reunion conversation like this?" "Oh absolutely," Eliza says, the grin not leaving her face. Calano sighs, and holds up his hand, the ring styled like a raven on his finger. Eliza's jaw drops. "Married?? Ok, now I'm surprised." Calano grins again. "This is technically our honeymoon. We got married like 2 days ago." Eliza smiles so wide, Calano fears her face is going to split apart. Then it vanishes. "You mean to tell me, you got married, and you didn't invite me?" She says, deathly serious. Calano pales. "Uhh, well, we didn't know if you or her parents or Dad were alive... so... and searching would have delayed the wedding, and people had already RSVPed and bought/made gifts, and-" He's interrupted by Eliza laughing. "Relax, son, it's fine. I understand."

    That makes sense. This is still quite a shock. It's alright though. I'm here with you. Eliza, ever perceptive, picks up on the attitude change. "Do you need a moment before that, Emma? To gather yourself?" Calano puts a hand on Emma's shoulder, rubbing it affectionately. "If you need a moment, dear, you can take one."

    Hey so guess what everyone!

    So, a while ago I started working on a guitar melody.

    then, while in the shower, words and melody for the words came to me. when i got out of the shower, i picked up my guitar and tried the words with the guitar.

    and bro-

    bro it's beautiful. i love it and that I came up with. i'm gonna make a final recording of the melody, get an idea of what the full thing is, then write lyrics to the melody.

    then practice practice practice.

    and then?

    play it in front of my gf (bc OBVIOUSLY it's about her (duh)) and record that as a video.

    :DD

    it's titled Cross Stitching In The Morning

    Eliza smiles, "Yes, they live just down the street." Her smile fades. She takes Emma and Calano's hands. "We've... tried to find our way to you. Wherever we sent you, we haven't been able to open a portal to again. So, we'd accepted the fact that you had either died, or you were just waiting until the Scourge was over, then you would come and search. The four of us, me, Eric, and your parents, Emma, we all spent many sleepless nights wondering after your fate." Eliza walks into the kitchen. "Eric is downtown, working on a project. He still won't tell me what it is, he insists it's a surprise. But he'll be home later. Emma, do you want me to call your parents, invite them over?"

      Yeah. I feel like some people take it entirely as a joke, but it's more than that in my opinion. That Funny Feeling is another one with funny bits that is ultimately very serious, although it's a little harder to derive the meaning from it.

    "Hey!" Juuno began sprinting after him. Stalks, if only Juuno had Verdur abilities. Sadly, he had not been selected to receive them when he was younger. So, he sprinted. And called for the police. And police appeared in front of the humans path.

    "Trust me, I can. Hyron will be back soon, and then they'll go with you and the other human. So, just wait outside the net."
  11. Going_North_cal
    Juuno leaned in. "Listen, I know you're just trying to get recruits. Hyron filled me in. But believe me, you won't find any willing people here. I'm amazed you managed to convince Hyron to leave. Hyron is... particularly stubborn."

    Juuno shook his head, "Nope, can't do that. You've gotta leave. Like now."

    @xinoehp512 As the stranger wandered around the Domain, he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder. "Hey," Juuno said, "You uh, you can't be here. You have to leave."

    Eliza Corvus immediately wraps her son in a hug and begins to cry as well. After a few tearful seconds, she reaches out and drags Emma into the hug as well. "You- You're back," She said, stepping back and holding Calano's face in her hands, "You came back. You came home." She laughs, and cries, all at the same time. "I did," Calano says, "I did, I'm sorry it took so long. There's so much to tell." Eliza quickly beckons the couple inside, "Please, Emma, I've known you since you were a child, call me Eliza." Calano takes in his mother before walking inside. She's done her hair up in a tight bun, and wears a neutral colored gray blouse tucked into her jeans. She looks... motherly.

    Calano walks forward, letting his hand slide out of Emma's. He goes up to the door. And he stands there. Shouldn't he be ecstatic? His life has never been better. He's married, his parents are probably only 30 feet away from him... And yet, he can't help but feel nauseous. Finally, he raises his hand and knocks on the door. He waits, and the door opens. And his mother is standing there. Calano smiled. "Hi, mom." He said. Then he started to cry.

    Hyron, who is packing a bag in their chambers, doesn't look up as they pack extra canteens. The benefit to being a Hwindi is Hwindi Breath can purify any water source, so they only need purify the water after they put it into their canteen, allowing them to use Verdur and still remain hydrated.
