He thinks about it for a bit before nodding his head and telling her his answer.

Hunter: Sure I can, this whole thing maybe a serious problem to others but I'll still be there to stop her and help her out of her situations. Besides this side of her is just going to make my life A LOT more interesting, *mumbles* wonder if one of our kids going to have a similar situation. Anyway I feel so much better now, takes for the talk Tricia or is it okay for me to call you mom?

@ShihouxAdventure

Tricia: Mmhmhmhm, we'll see.. First I'll have to see how secure you make my Alexandra feel.. But something tells me it'll neither be long or hard to do. :)

-As they talk, Alexandra returns upstairs sporting something more comfy than her school uniform. She notices them just as Tricia lets the barrier down-

Alexi: ! M-m-mom! What were y-you doing with Hunter!? W-were you using magic?? Did you enchant him!?

Tricia: Ohhhhh no. We were just having a little chat, hon. :) I can see why you're so fond of him, he's sweet.

-So saying, she wraps her arms around his head, pulling him in close for a risque hug-

Alexi: Bwaaaah!? *Walks briskly over and takes Hunter by the arm* I-I-I know he is! T-that's we're d-dating! >://c ...!!

Tricia: Seems my little suspicions are confirmed.. Tee-hee.. xD Well then, you run along, dear. You two have fun.

-She gives a wink before heading out-

Hunter: *blushes* Well..I didn't expect all of that to go down right after our talk. Ssooo how was your bath my adorable genius, was it super relaxing without me being around in your personal space?

@ShihouxAdventure

Alexi: Well.. It was nice, but I had concerns.. And it looks like I was right. I knew my mother would try something while my back was turned. >:'c She probably said a bunch of e-embarrassing stories about me. *Puffs out cheeks* J-just get it over with. What did she tell you? What thing are gonna bring up after a few years when I least expect it? Making me spiral into deep despair, never leaving the house again..

-...Seems like her mom's teased her before in the past, despite actually caring about her a lot. It doesn't look as if she's going to be able to relax until those fears are put to rest. Or at the very least, try to let her know it wasn't like how she thinks it was-

Hunter: *rubs head* I mean after she helped me out we had a nice conversation and honestly during that time she had you on top of a pedestal, talking about what a great daughter you were and how lucky I was to have you around every step of the way.

He hoped that his words would make Alex not be so on edge for the reminder of the day.

@ShihouxAdventure

Alexi: *blinks* Really..? I mean, I've heard about her saying it, but.. I don't know, that doesn't sound like something she'd gush about.. Wow. Maybe I had it figured wrong after all. I'll have to thank her one day.

-She looks a bit bashful. She was about to pop off about her mom, but hearing that calmed her down considerably-

Alexi: Um.. Sorry if I was being.. weird. .-. With what happened today, I've been a little off-centered.. c':

Hunter: Nah it's fine, It's nothing that'll drastically effect how I feel about you. Say why don't we go ahead and find a spot to just relax and snuggle up to each other I mean unless..you still have the energy for that reward you've been looking forward to..*softly yawns*

Really that first option was just an excuse for Hunter to rest his eyes after the long eventful day the two had, but if Alex desired the second option then he didn't mind putting in the effort into giving what she wanted.

@ShihouxAdventure

Alexi: To be honest.. That whole thing was just because... I was kind of scared of facing the teachers. :'D For the first time, I wanted to skip class, heh..
But knowing nothing bad happened, I just want to relax.

-She places a hand on his face-

Alexi: Besides, l don't think you can keep up with my stamina as you are. xD No harm in staying, now. Mother knows we're, or rather, she always knew. o-o'
-So saying, she leads Hunter to the couch, and sits him down. She goes to another room, and brings out a huge blanket, spreading it on him, and herself. She scoots close to him, putting his arm around her shoulder-

Hunter: Oh is that so, when I mentioned it again before we left the school you sounded VERY enthusiastic about it even if it was for a few seconds.

He wraps both of his arms around her before completely forcing the two down onto the couch, he fixed the blanket as he let Alex rest on top as he laid flat on the bottom.
.
Hunter: Thanks for always looking out for me Alex, that's one of the reasons why I love you so much. *yawn* Now if you don't mind..I'm a rest my eyes..for a bit. *kisses her and falls asleep*

@ShihouxAdventure

-The two shared a moment before drifting off to sleep. A few hours later, Jocelyn comes back dowstairs about to leave when she sees them passed out on the couch-

Jocelyn: ...Geez Alex, you can't wait until you're in your own room? *Tucks her in before leaving* ...Mom?

Tricia: Are they really sleeping..? c:

Jocelyn: Yeah? But why-

Tricia: Oh, no reason.. Just adding to my scrapbook, tee-hee..

-Jocrlyn rolls her eyes as she heads out. Tricia, however sneaks in and puts a hand over Alexandra. A glow radiates off her hand as she starts softly speaking in another language-

Hunter woke up feeling refreshed after his sleep and that was largely thanks to having his warm soft dark elf sleeping comfortably along side him during that time. He opened his eyes to try and evaluate what time it was but he couldn't make anything out because of his current blurry vision and he was still to sluggish to move anymore so he just decided to close his eyes back and lay on the couch for a while.

(I didn't know how to respond next because of what just transpired while our couple was sleeping. I'm real curious to know what Tricia is scheming, lol)

@ShihouxAdventure

-Alexandra slowly looks up, smacking her lips groggily. She looks through the window-

Alexi: ...Sstill dark.. I don't wanna.. *yawn* get up..

-So saying, she curls back up on Hunter. As she's about to drift off again, Abnor lumbers into the room, nudges them with his nose-

Alexi: *grumbles* N-no, quit it Abnor. Ish sleepy timezz... Go away.. -3-)/

Abnor: *Growls in low non-threatening way at them and continues nudging-

Hunter: Stop, stop, I'm up..just give me a moment.
.
He forces himself to sit up with Alex still in his arms before moving carefully out from under her so he doesn't disturb her slumber to much. Standing up he stretches while his body makes a few audible popping noses.

Hunter: Alright big guy, what do you want to show me? I would hope this isn't another squirrel.

@ShihouxAdventure

-Abnor walks over to the window, parting the curtain with his nose. Upon inspecting, a tall scary-looking guy is coming back from the driveway from a black car, and is making his way up the sidewalk. Abnor, big lumbering Abnor hops off the window, and sits by the door in attention. Not budging an inch. Whoever this guy is, Abnor knows it's serious. The doorknob jiggles, with mumbling coming from the other side-

???: Darn it, where's that cursed key... I knew I should've opted to have that dwarf build the house instead.. >:(

At first Hunter was thinking it was an intruder, but after getting a better hold on the context clues around him it must of been someone else that was apart of this family. Hunter just stood near the door frozen in place, his body and mind couldn't come to a decision to run and hide or to confront this person head on.

@ShihouxAdventure

-After much fumbling on the other end, the doorknob turned, and the door creaked open.
A tall, dark-skinned elf man was on the other side. A distinct marking under his left eye, beefy arms, and rough demeanor about him.
He looks straight at Hunter, his face turning a bit surprised-

Vilre: Who are you? What're you doing in my house, runt. >:( And.. *Looks at Abnor* Why didn't you tear him to shreds?

Abnor: *Whines and sinks to the floor* D:

Hunter: Ohh so you must be her dad? Aww shot u-uh, would you believe me if I said I was a guest for the night?

He stands there awkwardly, a little intimidated by the man's true identity and appearance. Now he knows where Jocelyn get's her eyes from.

@ShihouxAdventure

-Vilre's gaze pierces through the him. His eyes looks like he's battled at least a thousand battles-

Vilre: No. No I wouldn't, intruder..
-He gets ready to unsheathe his blade when Abnor howls to the sky. It distracts him, and wakes Alexandra right up out of her sleep-

Alexi: !! Who-!? Wha-!?
Vilre: !? A-Alexandra?? What're doing here on the couch?

Alexi: Dad! I didn't know you were home. :o Wait.. Why do you look like you're gonna cleave someone in half-! NO!

-She darts in front of Hunter-

Alexi: Daddy, no! I know what that look means, don't do it! D':

-Alexandra's starting to get stressed...-

Hunter pulled her into his grasp and had one hand wrapped around her waist while the other rubbed her back in a calming motion. He was busy trying to keep Alex from freaking out to the point he almost forgot about the other presence in the room.

Hunter: Woo calm down Alex, breath in and breath out. I would of been fine...maybe.

@ShihouxAdventure

-You can feel the tenseness of Alexandra's back as she looks up at her dad. Vilre stares back at them both, his hand still on the handle of his blade. He eyes where Hunter's hands are, getting more and more irritated-

Vilre: Who do you think you are, touching my daughter like that, you-!!

Alexi: H-HE'S MY BOYFRIEND, DAD! >:'O

Vilre: !? *Growls and slams his blade down in the floor* UNACCEPTABLE! He is NOT worthy-!

Alexi: Y-yes he is!! You don't know how nice he is, you're gone most of the time! D':

-That statement causes Vilre to 'tsk'. She did have a point, even if it hurt. But he still didn't look like he would change his mind. Even if his own daughter said it-

Vilre: Younglings... *Sheathes his blade* Fine. Doesn't mean I have to like it..

Alexi: Daddy, c'monnn, give him a chance.. :'c

Hunter: Y-Yeah I'm not that bad, if anything Alex could be dating a guy way worse then me. (*coughcough*Graizer*cough*) Everyone else seems to accept me in their own ways so why can't you, what can I do to get on your good side? Besides the obvious options of me staying away from your daughter forever or you KILLING ME.

Hunter stands proud and boldly in front of Vilre with Alex in his arms kind of indicating that he was her partner from now on and he wasn't going to budge away from that decision anytime soon.

@ShihouxAdventure
( LOL, no one wants to be a Graizer! xD )

Vilre: Don't try to get chummy with me, runt. Sneaking around my back dating my daughter doesn't, and will never make us "buddies".
-So saying, he promptly stomps off into the kitchen. The mood is thick, and even though it looks like he won't bother them, Alexandra still feels as if she sort of lost-

Alexi: *In a low voice* ...Darn it, dad. This isn't your home realm, courting's different here... :c *Turns to Hunter* ...I'm sorry. Daddy really is a good guy. He just.. did things differently where we came from. Before we hopped realms. B-but even so, I know who I chose, and I choose you to be with. Dad.. Dad won't change how I feel about you-!

-Alexandra is now in a somber mood. But her feelings stay determined for Hunter.
You could choose to stay the rest of the night with her, or you can give the family some space just for tonight. Either one won't make Alexandra lose any feelings for Hunter-

Hunter: *blushes* I'm so lucky to have came into contact with you, your always there to make me feel better about myself!..I'll get your dad to like me one of these days, I know I don't have to force myself in doing so but it'll make me feel better if I could.

He showers Alex in affection to show her how much he appreciated her sticking around and loving him for how he was, he gives her kisses, and her favorite neck nibbles while doing so.
.
Hunter: Even thou we're out of school tomorrow I think it would be best if I get back to sleep and leave early in the morning, so I don't cause you and your folks anymore problems with your grumpy dad.

Hunter seperates from Alex and gets back on the couch before pulling the entire blanket over his head and body to try blocking out any negativity that Vilre may decide to throw at him while he tried his best to slumber, it wasn't the comfiest thing to do but it made him feel safer.

@ShihouxAdventure

-Alexandra restrains herself from "going in for the kill" after Hunter went for her weak spot. It... was for the best at this moment.
She caresses the spot where his head is before going back upstairs. The night passes on.
In the morning, Vilre exits his room, and sees the 'Hunter lump' on the couch. He grimaces as Tricia walks in-

Tricia: Mmm, I thought I tasted bloodlust in the air. Hello darling. :)
Vilre: Trish. Did you know about.. THAT?

Tricia: *looks over his shoulder at Hunter* Yeah?

Vilre: ..Seriously? Why did you not tell me Alexandra was looking for a mate?? D:

Tricia: Oh honey, I told you: Human younglings don't do that here. They just do. They don't test themselves against the father for their daughter's hand. PLEASE tell me you didn't make a fuss about it.

Vilre: ...

Tricia: Vile, you big dum-dum. :'D As usual, I'll have to fix things. Just.. go bludgeon something in the meantime, ok?

Hunter woke up and slowly poked his head out from under the blanket to see if anyone else was in the room with him, after determining that the coast was clear he got up, fooled the blanket, and headed straight towards the door to head out just like he told Alex yesterday.

@ShihouxAdventure
-Alexandra slept for a little, longer but was soon up and at em'. After grabbing showering and picking out a regular outfit, she ate breakfast, and gave a hug to Tricia before leaving.

Alexi: ( After everything that happened last night, I wonder if Hunter still wants to hang out today? )

-She ponders in thought as she makes her way to the central park. She's packed some breadcrumbs to feed to the pigeons as she wonders what to do next-

At that same park a young woman who looked around Jocelyn's age, with dark skin, lemon lime hair, and green eyes is seen enjoying a bundt cake as she sat on the bench listening quietly to the people and animals that inhabited the area. She was there to supervise her blue eyed siblings punishment for not coming straight home without telling her the previous day.

@ShihouxAdventure

-Alexandra looks at them for a little, but then it snaps in her mind who that is. Though she doesn't know who this new face is.
Timidly, she makes her way over to them-

Alexi: Hunter! I didn't know you'd be here as well! :o ...Who's she? .-.

Hunter: That's. My. Sister. Lann. I wasn't planning on coming here at all, but I bumped into her on the way home and she wasn't to happy after making a feast for the two of us and I never showed up. So she decided to make me buy her a cake while also having me do laps around the ENTIRE PARK!

Hunter was so out of breath to the point he could taste blood in the back of his throat. Lann looks at Alex with little pieces of frosting around her mouth along with a questioning look on her face trying figure out who this pointed ear girl was and what her relation to her brother is.

Lann: Not to sound rude, but if you don't mind me asking who are you?

@ShihouxAdventure

Alexi: Ohh, you're Hunter's sister!
-She rubs her hair down, trying to make herself presentable. She extends her hand to her-

Alexi: I'm Alexandra. I-I'm Hunter's girlfriend. ^-^ Please don't be mad at him, he was with me that night. :'D He's really a nice guy, I've been tutoring h-him.

-She looks down with hand rubbing the back of her head in a shy manner. Of course there was more to it than 'studying', but she purposely left that part out-

Hunter: *whizzing while laid out on the ground* Yeah. Stop being mean to me.

Lann pop's the rest of her bundt cake into her mouth before whipping away anything that may have been on her face with a napkin.
.
Lann: Tutoring huh...well it's just nice to finally meet the girl that's always been on my brothers mind lately. Now that I get to meet you in person you seem polite, smart, reliable, and most important of all..loyal.

She stands up and instead of handing over a handshake to Alex like she was expecting Lann gives her a hug along with a small smile.
.
Lann: Welcome to our little family Alex, I hope you'll becoming a great wife for my brother in the future. He needs someone else besides myself to look after him. *thumbs up*

@ShihouxAdventure

-Alexandra blushes as she's pulled into a hug. She really wasn't expecting this from who was seemingly a serious person!
But those feelings were soon drowned out as she wraps her her arms around Lann in a tender embrace-

Alexi: I don't know how I'll do as a wife, but I know I love Hunter with all my heart. A-and-! And I'll always be there for him! And you too, 'Big Sis'!

-Any tension that Alexandra had before, even about last night had completely vanished. Here, in this moment, Hunter and Lann were seemingly the only two in the entire world right now. And the dark elf was happy to be with them-

Alexi: ...Oh, I almost forgot! *She stoops down to a wheezing Hunter, planting a rejuvenating kiss on his lips* You can't stay down there forever, silly! Us three have places to go! ^o^

Hunter: *deeply inhales and exhales* And where exactly are you trying to take us? *playfully reaches out to play with her hair*

Lann: I don't have to attend to my students for awhile so I don't mind tagging along as well. That being the case I would like to know as well on what you have planned for us.

They were both a little excited to know where they were being taken on this unexpected invite.

@ShihouxAdventure

Alexi: If you're up for it, I wanna show you a place I like visiting. My mom, as.. strange as she is.. *ahem* She would bring me there when I was little: Kaleidescope Cavern.

-Her eyes light up as she's explaining. It would seem that place held special memories to her-

Alexi: Granted, it's not here, in this realm. But do you want to go anyway? It'll be fun!

Hunter: I'll be able to see the world you lived in, meet some new faces, and get a change of scenery?
.
Lann: I wonder how different the people are compared to us and what the wildlife there is like, but more importantly..if the food taste good. *drools a little*

Hunter/Lann: We're in!
.
They couldn't pass up a chance like this that had so many new things that they could experience, it also reminded the two back whenever they would go on adventures together.

@ShihouxAdventure

( I have to make a new part later. I'm busy with my comic and the b-day gift rn. :'o But hey, do you wanna draw the next part? It'll help move it along, and cross something off my to-do list. :o )

(I mean I'll try whenever my time is wide open enough for me to do so, I already have an idea of what I want to draw but I don't know if I can pull it off. By the way I did not mean to put that empty comment there.)
