Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Uhh... Mom?" Siege eyed his mother, sitting upside down on the couch with her legs thrown over the back. She seemed content, humming along with an upbeat pop song coming from the speaker of the phone she'd just gotten that morning, but she really hadn't touched the thing other than asking him to find music for them while she made lunch for them earlier. He trotted closer, lifting one hoof to poke her cheek. "Mooooom."

Blepicorn opened her eyes, looking over at her youngest with a smile before rolling sideways to wriggle herself upright once more. She didn't say anything and he narrowed his eyes on her, taking a step back. "No, mom."

"Yes, mom!" She corrected with a laugh, scrambling from the couch to give chase as Siege turned and ran.

He did his best to hold in his laughter when she caught up and scooped him up, spinning and singing completely out of key with the song still playing. He faked a long groan, hiding his smile as he put a hoof to her shoulder and tried to squirm away. She didn't relent until the end of the song and even then he wouldn't have been saved from her silly antics if not for the loud rapping at the front door.

"Coming!" Blep called before she pressed a kiss to Siege's cheek and set him back down. He followed on her heels as she moved to the door. Both sets of vibrant green eyes widened a bit when she pulled open the door and saw Riot and Rocket. She honestly shouldn't have been surprised, considering the fact that Riot and the children were her only constants in life now.

With the arrival of one basket, she'd thought it best to settle in one place and what better place than Harvest Town? She'd be close to Riot and their middle child and it offered a wonderful start for the next chapter of her life. Then the third parent of their trio had shown up at her new home and given another child, the one he'd been blessed with. She couldn't bring herself to hate him for it, but she didn't exactly approve. Though... If he wasn't going to love Outcry, then she would. It was difficult and stressful and she'd even cried herself to sleep a few nights but Riot was always there. Perhaps not in that exact moment, but he'd always show up, as if he knew she needed someone. And here he was again, standing on her doorstep with their middle son looking absolutely horrified.

She brought a hoof to her mouth, stifling a small laugh as she bent down with them. "Hi my darling~" she hummed to Rocket, swiping his hair away from his face to plant a quick kiss to his forehead and scoop him into her arms for a hug.
She leaned toward Riot, intending to pull him into a hug, too but stilled for a moment as Siege moved around her.

"Hi dad!" He grinned up at Riot, "Mom got a phone today!"

"Siege!" Blep laughed as she released his brother, "That was a surprise!"

He blinked up at her, looking between the three. "Well.. Surprise! Mom got a phone!"

Siege snickered as Rocket had to endure his turn in their sometimes overly affectionate mother's arms. His amusement didn't last very long as his father ruffled his hair. With a small huff of playful annoyance, he fixed the wild strands atop his head.

"Of course," Blep giggled at the look in both sets of purple eyes staring back at her. She'd certainly come a long way with technology in what seemed like such a short time.

Before his mother could say anything, Siege had darted back inside. "C'mon, Rocket! It's in here."

Blep laughed again as she watched them, though Riot gathered her attention again quickly. She opened her mouth to answer but nothing came out. Ohgosh, should she tell him that she wanted a way to talk to him? Maybe starting with his second question would be better.

"I wouldn't want anyone else to teach me," she admitted softly, quite aware of the way her cheeks began to heat. "But not in the doorway." She added quickly, stepping inside to let him in....and use the door to hide the growing pink shade tinting her cheeks.
