Dragonrider keep

Rai is sitting the garden with all the smaller children, save Aiko, watching as they play with a ball together. The twins are in their pram, ivy and sweet smelling flowers wrapped pleasantly around it from assumably Syl. He looks up as Arch enters, a gentle smile on his face and eyes affectionate as he realizes it is him.

Arch takes his time walking over and saying his hellos to all of the children and infants and inevitably ending siting next to Rai on their bench. "How you doing sweet heart? Missed you! Midnight is back and resting in his room for now everything was fine. Apparently its only goign to be a month till we expect the infant to be born. Probibly due to Midi being a spirit they gestate faster." Wrapping his arm around his dark haired lover he pulls the quiet man in to a hug.

The triplets crowd all around him to say hello, happy and excited to see him and getting hugs before they bolt off again. Syl is covered in flower petals for whatever reason, awake and just comfortably cooing and staring around. Gritia is chewing on her fingers, drool coating her hand and not much else with a stray leaf in her dark hair from her brother. Raiden leans into the embrace gratefully, burying his face on his husband and drinking in his comforting scent. "...Is he feeling okay?"

Seems he is verry fatigued. You know how that feels dont you?! Beyons that he is fine just the normal signs. Arch places his chin upon the mess of black hair nestled into him after placeign a kiss upon his crown.

"Mmmfff..." Is all the halfbreed grunts in response and snuggles in close to his affections. There is a loud grunt-coo from one of the babies, followed by a whimpering that is usually closely followed by crying. Rai lifts his head to look, scooping up their son with ease and tuting softly to the baby. "We missed you." Syldrian fusses, waving a grumpy little fist and scrunching up his pale face.

Arch shows Syl some attention together with Rai for a moment. Then scoops up his daughter as well. They sit there spending some time together as a family with the children.

Poor Cyrus wakes from his nap with chills and vomiting, not really doing the best. Unfortunately for him it lasts until the next day, not able to really even want to get out of bed.

Andeil stays by hjs wifes side tending to him throughout the mans sickness. Arch is there helping when he can to keep the mans fluids and vitals correct and to help Adneil keep an eye on the children. "Poor lad. This ones really whollopin ye isnt et darlin? The giant says strokeing his massive fingers through the beautyful crimson hair of his lover. A moist brow under a giant palm is met with a cool cloth soon after.

Strange things have been happening in the castle since it started, mostly with the dragons who have been appearing in even stranger places, Adneil swearing he saw Sanguine in two different places at once. Cy is flushed feverishly, shivering under his touch. He cracks green eyes open to stare up at him hazily, "I-I haven't been sick in years..." His voice is hoarse, quiet. "...Dunno what's g-going on but I... I think..." With a groan, he shifts uncomfortably and grows impossibly paler. "It's too early but I-I..." Struggling to get it out through gritted teeth, he hisses in pain. "Time for th-this one."

The giant looks to Arch while picking up Cy. "Yeah Da some fucky stuff been goin ons lately. Comon lets get him te the O.R. if the babes not ready id rather not loose Cy!" Arch nods in agreement. "Yeah Yasuo said somethign was up as well Ashe was outside with us and he said it wasnt Ashe?" Arch gets his phone out and messages Yasuo for assistance. "Im going to get Midnight as well. He knows what may be going on. He told me you were going to need my help with this one so prepare yourself."

Yasuo is quick to show, stiff with concern. "This one can't be ready so soon?" He speaks softly to Arch off to the side so Cy and Adneil can't hear them, already washing his hands. Cyrus is clinging to one of Adneil's fingers with his hand, breathing hard at contractions that have already started. "Oh, th-this one sucks..." The redhead manages out weakly, closing his eyes to try and fight back nausea as well. Midnight shows up quite willingly, frowning to himself subtly as he enters the room.

Adneils brow starts sweating. Eyes wide with worry and concern for his wife. "Hang in there darlin, just a few more minutes." He brishes Cys head with his fingers again.

Arch nods to Yasuo. "They know, Adneil already made the call to have it removed so wel will. He looks up to midnight quickly. "Any information you can tell us before we begin?"

Midnight glances at the dragon and his wife and then back to the two doctors, "Do not worry yourselves. Everything will be fine, as I have said, but I can help ease some of it. I did not realize this little one would be quite this hard on him. It must be quite restless." He approaches the bed, placing a careful hand on Adneil's arm. "They will be all right. Allow me..." The Spirit smiles down at Cyrus assuringly, hand switching to touch the man's freckled cheek as he gets his attention. "Just relax. Listen." For some strange reason he begins quoting a poem softly as he holds the sickly man's gaze with deep, black eyes. Cy's green fades black to match, whole body relaxing significantly as he stares up in return, the poem an odd ploy to distract him it seems. "Arch has experienced this. He is merely in the darkness to keep your child's power contained for the moment. I am there with him." He says to Adneil as Cy is now quiet and calm but peering around vaguely. "Proceed with the surgery."

Adneil looks to Cy unblinking, appreciative that his lover isnt in pain now, still worried though it seems. Arch finnishes prepping for Yasuo to begin by wheeling the surgical cart with a array of instuments to the side of the table. "Ready when you all are."

Midnight stands calmly off to the side out of the way as they work, watching unblinkingly with hands folded in front of him. Yasuo works quickly, having Arch assist and keep watch on their vitals. Cy has no reaction, expression placid as he is under Midi's control for the moment, even as Yasuo steps back in surprise. An egg hovers just above its mother, dripping blood and other fluids as soon as he opens him up. The tall doctor reaches for it but as his fingers brush it, it shoots off, whizzing away to hover above Adneil instead. With a quiver above him, the egg multiples, half a dozen identical and dripping that scatter in the air in all different directions. Midnight sighs from his place, almost impatiently, "Honestly, child." With a wave of a pale hand, they all cease, disappearing including the original as he holds something out. "Adneil. Come here if you will."

Stepping forward with a quick glance to his wife. Trying to understand what is happening. Adenil takes a step to midnight. A fearful questioning animalsitic look in his eye, momentarily turning to the slit of his normal eye and back as he looks to the spirit.

Midnight seeing his anxiety, shushes him gently as he holds out an extremely small egg to him. "I have it here. This little one is merely trying to fool you. It's all right." Yasuo is relieved behind them, letting out a small sigh and relaxing as he begins to patch the man back up. Continuing as he hands the egg off to its father, the white haired man smiles faintly again. "You are the only one that can speak to them. You may want to tell them to control themselves. They have been rather naughty, haven't they?"

Adneil nods takign the egg in both hands. Looking down he mutters something into it under his breath. Looking back to his wife who is finnished and laying there. He walks over and places the calmed egg in its mothers hands.

Midnight's hold appears to release on Cyrus, dissipating as his whole body relaxes with eyes closed. "Let him rest... He will be back to you after, just fine. Adneil, you are the only one that can contain that one so keep an eye on it. You may need to show Cyrus to do the same." The egg is half the size of their smallest thus far, dizzingly swirling hues of pastel pinks and blues and hints of purples bleeding into each other like a painted sunrise twinkling in the light. Yasuo finishes up, glancing to the dragon in concern. "He's right. Cyrus is just fine with some healing per usual. Are you okay?"

"Yea, jus a lil shaken es all... I dun like seein him hurtin like tha." The giant does his normal deed. "Ye mind just taken the children an watchin em fer a bit. Id like some alone time with Cy an this one." The giant still looking worriedly down at his wife and strokeing the red hair of his lover. Arch is finnishing cleaning up comes over. "We dont mind at all. As they said everything is fine though." He then procedes out the door where they hear a quiet talking for a moment.

Yasuo looks to Arch and nods, agreeing before follow him out., "We don't mind at all." Midnight wanders out behind them quietly, going back to his room where he usually is during the day. The little egg gives a hint of a  shake but seems to behave itself otherwise as far as Adneil can tell.

With the dragonlings running around his feet. "I suppose we can either go to the nest, or we cna bring them to the garden? What say you gentalmen?" The men talk amongst themselves a moment seciding on the garden area and ushering everyone out to where Rai is with the other children. Along the way arch talks to Midi. "So what was up with that one? How you doing yourself Midi?"

Raiden peers up somewhat startled as dragons hurdle in excitedly, immediately chasing after children who shriek with laughter. Midnight stops and turns to Arch as he trips over his own feet, bumping into the man and catching himself on his arm. "Oh, I apologize." He says immediately, straightening with a sigh and letting go. "I am very clumsy during the light of day... You were saying?"

Laughing a bit Arch helps the clamouring gentalmen." Its understandable, ive seen your plce. It must be almost blinding here for you. I was asking what is up with what happened in the O.R. with the egg."

"Ah, yes. That child was using their powers even in the womb as I am sure you must have figured out. And being very impatient about the whole thing." He seems as amused as he can be, adding. "You may have your hands full with that one. They have quite a bit of personality already. However, do you believe there is an issue?"
