Untypically Typical

Ella-Marie Charming née Andalasia A small little anchor, in an ocean too big for herself but she has her boats that help her float and explore and in turn she keeps them safe. She keeps them anchored. Protecting them as they protect her. Due Date Aug 11

“There’s a guidebook? Good thing I’ll never be a mum…” He replied, laughing as he joked with his sister. “Won’t he get hot in that?” Dorian asked, looking at the hat. “Are you a god? No, didn’t think so…so how do you know my future?” He questioned, raising a brow. Of course I’ll visit, but I don’t know how often.”

[charmingandalasia]

“Well you’ll be a dad one day so you’re still going to have to figure it out. And no, not with it getting colder he’s suppose to stay relatively bundled up.” She explained easily. “Do you even think I want to talk or acknowledge the fact you could die? It’s not about being a god it’s about something we don’t need to talk about. You’re still going to get to hold him then.”

“Unfortunately I don’t think that’s ever going to happen. Regardless of how much we want it to.” She replied, looking around the room that the three of them were in. It really was a shame that it never really would be like that, but that was the reality. “My happy ending? I don’t know, it’s not really something that I’m actively searching for, but I mean, who doesn’t want a happy ending?”

[charmingandalasia]

“No, but that’s okay everyone here knows what this place is and whether they complain or not it’s ultimately their decision to stay. Nothing truely forces us to be here.” After all her and Nic were leaving. So many others had to. “Some who think they aren’t ready for it, I suppose.”

“You sound just like mum.” He said with a chuckle, taking his nephew carefully and bouncing him in his arms. “What if it is final? You never know… I could die tomorrow or find love here and follow them where they want to go… Just remember to send the film back and I’ll do the rest.”

[charmingandalasia]

“It’s part of the guidebook on how to be a Mum.” She joked Fixing Ollie’s hat quickly as it shifted as he changed arms. “You’re not going to die don’t even say that. And if you choose to live else where you’ll visit before you go off. So i’m not worried. I will.”

[dorianandalxsia-blog]

“I know… But it’s what’s best for everyone.” He replied, smiling at his nephew. “Can I hold him, one last time?” Dorian asked, his eyes hopeful. “You made sure to pack the camera I gave you, right?”

[charmingandalasia]

“My comfort isn’t worth Ollie’s safety.” She whispered looking down at her son briefly before nodding and handing him off to Dorian. “You make it sound so final. Aren’t you going to follow one day? And of course.”

[rileypossible-deactivated201807]

“No place is I can attest to that.” Riley mused with a small laugh, smiling even brighter as she watched Ella bounce Ollie up and down. “I’m not sure. I used to not to, but I think it’s possible.” Especially with it seeming like Ella had gotten hers.

[charmingandalasia]

“I just wish it was. That this place could be a safe haven.” But it really wouldn’t ever be. “Will you be looking for yours you think?” She questioned unable not to. There was a part of Riley that reminded her of Mel and that made her want the best for Riley.

[dorianandalxsia-blog]

Dorian nodded and let out a small sigh. “Yeah, I gotcha… I just want to say goodbye to everyone and make sure you have everything you need.”

[charmingandalasia]

“You know I wouldn’t go if I didn’t have to. And we wouldn’t all leave without saying goodbye.” She stated softly bouncing Ollie in her arms. “I think we have everything if not you can bring it when you visit.”

[rileypossible-deactivated201807]

“Well thank you. Not a lot of people say that so it is nice to hear from time to time. I’m sure it is. You’ve created another life here. Literally and figuratively. But sometimes you’ve got to move on and start another.”

[charmingandalasia]

“I’m sure more people will realize it in time. This place isn’t perfect but what place is. I’ve gotten in trouble and I’ll never regret it.” Bouncing Ollie in her arms she couldn’t see a reason she would ever regret it. “Do you believe in happily ever afters?”

[rileypossible-deactivated201807]

@charmingandalasia

“You’re welcome, but seriously, you don’t have to thank me for that stuff. Any new experience can be nerve wracking, but I know that you’re going to do good.”

[charmingandalasia]

“We all should. You’re giving your time and energy to help us. It’s something everyone should be thankful for. It’s just strange leaving after almost three years.”

[charmingandalasia]

"Hey, I just heard that you're going to be leaving here in a little bit so I just wanted to say bye. This place is definitely losing a good egg, but I'm really excited for you to begin your new life with your little one."

“Thank you Riley, for this and honestly for everything you’ve ever done. To be honest I’m so nervous but I know it’s the right thing.”

[charmingandalasia]

@dorianandalxsia

“If I stay a few more days then at the end of that it’s just another few more days. We have to go.”

“No, you definitely lucked out and got the fun brother between me and Tristan.” Nic joked, giving her a wink. He definitely couldn’t see himself as a really strict father. As she handed him his son, he took him in his arms, smiling down at him. “I’ll wait until he’s… Let’s say five years old.” He joked again, focusing more on Ollie now. “Du wirst ein guter Mann sein, wenn die Zeit kommt. Vielleicht nicht so schnell, aber eines Tages.”

[charmingandalasia]

“I wouldn’t say it’s luck I don’t think Tristan and I would have ever worked out.” She was too shy and silly when her and Nic first met and really she loved Nic’s personality. And plus she saw Tristan as a gentle Father until maybe later on when training became a thing. Moving to the little hamper by the changing table she tossed the towel in there before moving to sit beside Nic. “Five sounds like an alright age, I’ll be the sweeter one so he can always spend time with me if the training get annoying.” She teased winking at him before smiling down at her son.

“It’ll give him enough time too, I think.” Nic said, joking a bit, but he hadn’t started really being interested in girls until he was about fourteen, so it seemed normal to him that sixteen would be a good age to judge whether his son was a lady’s man. Even if it was only a joke. He chuckled, shrugging his shoulders. “What can I say? I rule with an iron fist.” Really, though, he didn’t plan on being that strict at all. When Ollie was old enough, the knight training would do it for him. “Keine Sorge, Ollie . Sie können einen kleinen Jungen für ein wenig länger bleiben.” He said in German, telling him that he could continue to stay a little boy for a bit longer.

[charmingandalasia]

Ella laughed shaking her head at him. “Such an iron fist.” She mused walking around just patting his back lightly until he did burp and she walked him over to Nic. “Good I might need to revolt if you were going to make him a man already.” She teased holding Ollie out to Nic for him to take as she set herself up to put the towel to wash.

[rileypossible-deactivated201807]

“Yeah I guess I shouldn’t say only.” Riley mused, laughing a little bit as she shook her head around. “That’s crazy that you’ve been here this long. I think you might be the one that I’ve run into that’s been here the longest. That’s pretty cool though when you think about it.”

[charmingandalasia]

“There’s a few others that have been here that long but only a few. Maybe three or so?” It was really about time she started to think about leaving but it was such a hard place to leave. “It is, it’s definitely become a home to me.”

[nathaniel-rose]

“Huh. You know a lot more about babies than I ever could. Not that I’m surprised, but good for you and Ollie.” He was quite proud about how grownup she was about all this. She was already a great mother. “Not in the slightest. I love this little boy,” He said with a laugh, smiling down at him.

[charmingandalasia]

“Well I am a Mother, I think I need to know these things.” She teased just enjoying seeing Ollie in Nate’s arms. “Sometimes he’ll cry about it but if you try later he’ll be fine with it. It’s just learning.” And she was all for furthering Ollie’s development. Not that it was really furthering it because it was something they should do in general. “Alright then. You carry him I’ll get his pram.” She stated moving to open the door to push the pram out and hold it out for her son and Nate.

Nic smiled over at her and nodded. “Sounds fine to me. We’ll check back in with him in fifteen or sixteen years.” That sounded like such a long time, and even thinking about Ollie being that old seemed weird and unfathomable. “Sure. He’s gotta face is sometime.” He joked. “Well, a long time for him.”

[charmingandalasia]

“Sounds like a good time frame to me.” She laughed thinking about Ollie then. She couldn’t even imagine seeing him that old or what he would look like. He was always just going to be her baby boy. As he unlatched she fixed her dress and stood up to grab a little towel to wipe his face and move to burp him. “At a month though? You’re just so strict.” She sighed with a laugh. “Hear that, Ollie. Daddy wants to make you a man already.”

“Of course I will. I’ve got the memory of an elephant. I never forget.” He teased, giving her a wink. “Well, it’s the truth. He won’t be lucky for too long and then he’ll have to eat like the rest of us.” Nic laughed before ordering the two of them breakfast and hanging up the phone. “Ollie’s got the life right now, though. He gets everything done for him.”

[charmingandalasia]

“Alright then I’ll rely on you to remind us when it actually applies.” She mused smiling brightly as he winked at her. “Already tossing your son into the harsh reality that is life.” She sighed laughing as she patted Ollie’s hair back. “He’s got that life for a very long time.”

“That actually might not be a bad bet.” Nic said, knowing he didn’t have any worries about whether or not Ollie would be a lady’s man. It wasn’t even really that big of a deal to him for right now, but it sure was interesting to talk about. He sat down and took his phone to call the kitchen. “Not everyone is lucky enough to get all of the food they need from sucking on a boob.”

[charmingandalasia]

“The question is will we remember it when the time comes for it to apply?” She teased scrunching up her nose at him with a small laugh slipping her finger into Ollie’s hand letting it tighten there. “That sounds so weird when you say it like that. But yes he is a very lucky one.”
