Being the first born was always something special, it meant a certain kind of pressure rested on said first born’s back and many of those faltered under the pressure, but not Taj. He fought his own fights, for sure - had his own struggles, but the world had to try harder to take him down. Taj wasn’t the happiest child growing up, but he knew he was loved - at least by his dame, he barely saw his father. Sindra was a complicated man. Always busy with work, yet when he was home, work followed, or he’d spend his free time with his significant other. When Taj was young, he still believed in love - he believed in the love between his sire and his dame, but as he grew older, he began to understand the truth. 

Love was a myth. His dame was not in love, he was not happy - he was not free. Taj though, he was. When he could barely walk, his dame began to train him at home, teaching him the basics of close combat and when Taj was eight years old, his dame talked his father into letting him train with the Royal Guard and who wouldn’t want to say their first born was a knight for the king’s crown? So he’d agreed. Taj met Orion, who would end up being more of a sire to him than his actual sire.

As he grew older and older, he began to understand more and more. One being the regular visits of Trenton Coliar, that coincidentally matched his dame’s heat - the other being his sire’s cold stare whenever he looked at him and his siblings. He presented quite early, Alpha. He was fifteen at the time. Everybody was happy for him, including his dame. One pup less to worry about, he’d said. But, he was also looking more and more like the Coliars and that resemblance didn’t go unnoticed, it didn’t help that Sindra’s guards were reinforcing the rumors due to the Alpha himself trash-talking his cub when he felt like it. 

Taj met Trenton Coliar a few times, but remembered only very little from his visits. He did remember the look on his dame’s face before and after the Alpha came to visit. He never asked what happened, but he had his own suspicions. At training, the others poked fun at him a lot, the older guards had only very little fondness left for him as the Coliar triplets were known for their bad behavior and most of them had had at least one bad run-in with either of them. Orion did his best to keep Taj and his brothers safe, but he couldn’t always be there and Taj would rather die than to let his brothers get hurt. 

Then, after his youngest siblings were born - twins, Trenton stopped coming and it wasn’t long after that they heard the news of his banishment. That didn’t make life easier for him in the Royal City, quite the opposite. But Taj was still an Alpha, one with a good name and he fought for his place among the knights. As did his brothers. He thought they were all doing quite well. And Taj never lost hope that becoming a knight would allow him to bring justice to criminals and protect the home he held quite dear.  

Ever since he was little, he helped his dame with his siblings, so the bond between him and his younger brothers is quite thick. His dame never forced him to help, but he saw Silas struggle and felt it his responsibility to help where he could. He was also there when his dame needed emotional support or when he was sick. Taj had to grow up faster than his siblings, but he never blamed his dame for it. He knew Silas did his best, he was barely an adult when Taj was born - he was trying. He did inherit his dame’s antisocial tendencies though, but thankfully they were developed as strongly. With his siblings growing older, that eased up a little, too. 

When he turned 25, he did it. He became a Knight, thanks to Orion who still watched over him, but it was also then that he realized he could finally bring justice to the one person in his life he loved the most. His dame. Together with Orion and his little brother Remy, they worked out a plan to smuggle Silas out of the Royal City. Orion faked paperwork, Remy brought his dame outside that night and Taj drove him to Willowshire, but he didn’t go in with him. He hadn’t been ready yet, had still believed in the Royal City and his siblings. 

The following weeks were a nightmare, he found out that his dame hadn’t just been a lord’s possession, but also that he was of royal blood - if only partially, which … made him the same? Orion took the fall for his plan and demanded Taj stayed to live his life as a knight, but Taj never felt comfortable again in the Royal City after watching the Royal Guard escort the man to the gate. It was wrong. So wrong. Officially, Orion was marked a traitor, but Taj and his brothers knew the truth because they were part of the Guard. 

Still, he stayed. He’d promised his dame and Orion to live life to the fullest, but when months after everything happened, his … Sindra set him up in a relationship much like his dame and him, he flipped. He wanted to stay in the Royal City and become a Knight to make the world better, not add to its misery. But truth was harsh, sadly. He had to accept that nothing he said or did would change a broken system. He was raised to believe in equality, but only very, very few others could even begin to understand. 

It’s been almost a year now and he’s made his decision. He knows Remy is close to snapping as well, but he won’t push him. They all had to make their own decisions, it was their lives. Same for the youngest, the twins. They’d have to decide to follow to Willowshire on their account. Taj told them he’d leave, but they weren’t ready yet and that was okay, they knew where they could find him. 

When he arrived in Willowshire and found out about the packs, he knew pack Blazepelt was not the one he wanted to be in, despite his fighting skills. He didn’t exactly have the skills to become part of pack Springcrest who resonated most with him, so he joined the Ambersky pack as a tavern worker - a job he wasn’t really too fond of, but he’d done his best anyway, as usual. He liked the peaceful, calm environment that is Ambersky.

New Haven

Taj landed in the strange new land with a group of others in the center of a huge village with buildings taller than Taj ever could’ve imagined. New York, they called it. It was loud, it was crowded, it was hectic. Lights, carriages that drove on their own - it was quite the shock, but thankfully they were soon found and rescued from this strange human world. Brought to a town supposedly safe for their kind, Taj soon found out that there were more like him already in New Haven. Time travelers, they called them. Including his dame, thank Mother Nature and his little sister. 

Yearning to defend justice, Taj joins law enforcement after his dame.

"That's it, march and get yourselves out of this rain." Lorenzo says softly as he cautiously scoops a few stragglers nearby. The bees struggle a bit, finding it hard to climb onto anything with the presence of water everywhere. Lorenzo was just about to lose hold of the umbrella in his hand until he felt Taj's hand briefly. He gives a small nod in acknowledgment before returning to help the bees with both of his hands, able to bring any stranded bee back to the safety of the beehive.

It only takes a few minutes for Lorenzo to cover the beehive in a plastic tarp. Lorenzo couldn't help glancing at the other while he secures the tarp in place. The fae didn't mind an audience and while he wouldn't want to know without asking before hand, Lorenzo couldn't help but wonder what Taj had been thinking about him as he looked at him.

"That should do it," Lorenzo says, smiling as he finally secures the tarp around the beehive. He reaches his hand towards his umbrella, careful not to get the lion's hand wet. "Thanks for your help."

"Now let's get you that tea. You've surely earned it." He smiles once more at the lion, walking him back into the warmth of his home. Lorenzo had hoped Taj would stay the night, a part from being handsome, Taj was very mysterious yet intriguing to the fae. Being a fae, Lorenzo was far too often subject to the whims of his curiosity, though answering even one of his questions, the fae would be more than sated. But if not, the fae would certainly appreciate giving him some warm tea.

[iwilltakeitnomore]

He nods at him and follows him inside where he would shake his umbrella and leave it in a corner of the main door as Lorenzo makes the tea. He seats on the sofa then, with his album sitting next to him, and just hearing the music of the rain outside. He thinks of the bees, of Lorenzo helping them into security, he thinks of his past in the Royal City. He thinks of the abuse his dame went through, of the years he passed ignoring it.

Taj lowers his head. He thinks of his training as a guard, of his new training as a cop, of all the new things he's been learning in this new world. He raises his head to the album and grabs it. He passes the pages and observers the photos of his family, and his new life. Photos. He likes them.

Maybe he should learn about photography. As a hobby. His dame would never let him forget his training anyways. He gets up and goes to the kitchen, where he saw Lorenzo go into. "Hey," he greets him. "Do you know anything about photography?" He suddenly asks. He doesn't explain why, he just asks. He wants to learn about it, even if he has to take classes. It fascinates him.

[moonsxmagic-deactivated20241108]

Dominic couldn't imagine himself in the shoes of the time travelers. Being in a new place would be scary enough but a different time all together. He didn't want to pity them but he did feel for them. That's why he had tried to help whenever he could. He had enough patience from dealing with his students so confusion at the new technology and advances of the modern world didn't bother him. There was a warmth to his smile as he offered a gentle help to those in need. That just so happened to be the man in front of him now in the grocery store. He looked at the note for a brief moment and knew where most of it was automatically. Everything else, he at least had a rough estimate of where it could be even if he had never bought it for himself. "I can help you shop if you'd like? I don't have much on my plate and I don't helping you out." He stuck out his hand. "I'm Dominic. I'm guessing you're one of the time travelers?"

[iwilltakeitnomore]

"I'm Taj," he says stretching his hand with a warm smile. "And thank you, that will be most helpful," he adds. "And yes, one of them time traveler though the term is still weird to me," he says laughing a bit. "I know it seems silly to be confused about groceries but things in my time were very different as you can probably guess. Groceries were very different, no this," he says pointing at a gallon of milk. "But I guess Dad just wants me to familiarize myself with the new world."

"You would? That would be most helpful indeed! I know it would be a lot to ask but if you could help me understand the items around it will be very helpful to me. I'm still learning everything and things seem confusing to me. I don't like having to rely on others, but for that I need to learn the basics first, right?"

[dulcineahoneycomb]

"Oh, forgive me. Didn't mean to assume, it's just better to invite you in than leaving you out on a night such as this." Lorenzo chuckles awkwardly at the correction. He notices when Taj sets down the photo album, the faerie couldn't help but tilt his head in curiosity. Upon doing so, however, Lorenzo found himself dropping a bit of water onto the floor, realizing he was very much still wet from the rain. "Um, yes, I should definitely get changed. But please don't go."

"It would be terrible manners of me to let you go without at least something warm in your stomach." Lorenzo begins to say. He walks to his room, casually disrobing himself of his wet clothes as he calls out to the lion. "By that, I do mean tea. I swear I'll just be a minute."

Lorenzo hurries himself awkwardly outside, taking one of his own umbrellas to cover him from the rain. He also carries a small tarp to cover the beehive with. Lorenzo wasn't sure how he'd be able to secure it properly with the use of one hand, but the fae seemed to be confident in the task. He approaches the beehive, already hearing a mix of excited buzzing from inside. "Alright, ladies. Easy does it."

[iwilltakeitnomore]

He eyes the man as he speaks. He finds himself nodding at his request, even though he should very much leave. It was so late... however, he finds himself looking at Lorenzo at his words clearly finding double meaning in them as he blushes up at the correction and looks away at his album. "I'll wait," he says hearing him walk away.

Eventually, curiosity gained the better of him and he grabbed his umbrella following him outside. He sees Lorenzo then awkwardly trying to do this with one hand he sighs and approaches taking the umbrella from his hand. "I'll cover you, do your thing," he indicates with a gentle expression.

Taj looks at the bees then with certain distrust but he finds something calming in them nonetheless. The familiarity of bees in his hometown, of having to harvest the honey this way, of the flowers around them. He takes a moment to look around finding flowers around them and smiling. It is a good place to be.

[dulcineahoneycomb]

"Oh… Umm… Never really said I left there regarding work.." Lorenzo chuckles lightly. His faint smile turned somber, realizing his attempts at humor were probably best kept to a minimum. The fae could tell the generous man sharing his umbrella was in a an upset mood. He was unsure what to do for him, but hopefully the bees would do all the work. "Speaking of rain, we should get inside."

Lorenzo guides the werelion along the way to his house. The fae had his suspicions about the man being from the past, which were later confirmed by Taj's statements. Lorenzo hadn't interacted with his neighbors from the past as much as he'd like. Only things he knew about them were from others, much of which the fae took with a grain of salt and even less if it was coming from Virgil.

"Making everything by hand? Now that's something we can talk about for hours." Lorenzo chuckles lightly, leading them to the walkway in front of the fae's front door. He unlocks the door rather quickly, wanting to get out of his soaked clothes. While it was a simple jeans, shirt and apron, Lorenzo would rather be rid of them before any chaffing began. He enters, leaving the door open for Taj.

"You are welcome to enter my home, Taj." Lorenzo states. He wasn't sure what kind of person Taj was. Though the man looked like he had some kind of warm blood in him, it didn't hurt Lorenzo to be courteous nonetheless. You know what they say when one assumes.

"I invite you in."

[iwilltakeitnomore]

He smirks at those words. "Well, then we have something in common though I wasn't that good at making things. I was trained to be a guard, a soldier. My dame, however, knows how to make all sorts of things. I used to know how to cook but...not with the instruments of today. I guess I have to learn a new. Good thing I'm young."

When they arrived at his home he stood by his door weighing if he should enter or just leave. He had brought him home, good deed of the day, so he should go, right? Instead, he heard the man's words and laughed. "I'm not a vampire, I'm a lion," he says stepping in then. He shook his umbrella outside and left it in a corner inside. He placed his album over a table and examined it to make sure it was fine before accommodating the pictures inside. He shouldn't have brought it with him.

"Go tend to your bees and get changed. I...I should probably get going also. It's late and I shouldn't be in a stranger's home either." He says and actually smiles. Taj hesitates though, he's not sure why but he wants to stick around and watch him work with his bees and put them to safety.

[iwilltakeitnomore]

✨ from Lorenzo ( @dulcineahoneycomb )

Send ✨ to trace my muse’s freckles! (I hope this is the one you meant)

"What are you doing?" Taj asked as he felt the other randomly start tracing something on his face. He didn't have freckles so he was confused as to what was the other touching on his face. A bit uncomfortable, he took a step back and frowned. "What was that?" He asked, not angry but still in a good mood.

[dulcineahoneycomb]

"Right, my mistake. She." "Well, I think between the two of us, we can scare off whatever tries to get the best of us." The fae couldn't help but find himself feeling concerned for the werelion. He was, for the most part, handsome. However, there was an underlying emotion Lorenzo was reading off of Taj. The omega couldn't quite place it, but figured he needn't pry. Men were aloud to have a bad day, Lorenzo guessed. He ducks under the umbrella, stepping closer to Taj's personal space. "They call me Lorenzo, nice to meet you."

"I work at the flower shop in town, actually left early to tend to my bees. They hate the rain. I'm sure they're all the buzz right about now." He smiles warmly at the werelion, shaking Taj's hand. "I live just a few blocks here if you need a place to dry yourself. Maybe you can tell me more about this Sam person over some tea?"

"Don't tell me you've never been curious about trying some homemade honey." Lorenzo chuckles softly, hoping he'd be able to cheer up the stranger.

[iwilltakeitnomore]

He nodded at that statement. He could handle himself rather well and the other, now that he looked at him better, looked like he could handle himself rather well too. He watched him as the omega got under the umbrella and he offered a forced smile at the other. "Nice meeting you," he responded and prompted the other to lead the way towards his home. He kept his album safely under the umbrella, he couldn't let it get wet.

"Early? It's late at night, Lorenzo. Are you aware of the hour?" He asked raising an eyebrow at him. He had left his home with everyone sleeping already or seeming to. Who knows what his dame was doing with that Dante when he was sleeping anyway. "Look around you. It's not dark because of the rain but because of the time. Do you leave your shop open this late often?"

He shook his head at his question then. "No, not really. In my time everything was home made." He tells the other. He was a time traveler, not from this present world and with no way back. Not like he wanted a way back, he just wanted to send his feeling away. The rain just helped make his mood sadder, darker.

[dulcineahoneycomb]

Lorenzo walking hurriedly back from the flower shop. He wanted to get home to put a tarp over his beehives before the wood became too damn and allowed the rainwater to seep through. The omega was in such a hurry that he had even forgotten to put on his rain coat. It seems Lorenzo would get wet in place of the bees. As he walked as quickly and as carefully as he could, Lorenzo found himself bumping into someone. It was hard to see who with the rain pouring across the fae's face. He squints at the lion before apologizing. "It's no problem, I should have watched where I was going."

"Looks like you dropped this." The fae bend down to pick up a picture that fell from Taj's photo album. Lorenzo was surprised the young man was able to bump into him with such force. From afar, the fae thought Taj looked slimmer. Looking at him now, Lorenzo could see how the werelion could practically toss him aside if he chose to. He supposes it's the rain getting in the way of his vision. He hands back the photo, offering a small smile. "Sam... Almost lost him there."

"Oh, I read the back, it's a bit smudged from the rain." The omega says a bit quietly.

[iwilltakeitnomore]

Taj hadn't even realized he had brought the album with him, he looked down at it and cringed. If it got wet and if he had damaged something, his dame would kill him. The stranger's words and the photo he had in his hand proved he wasn't hallucinating the album in his hand. He placed it under his arm and took the photo with his free hand looking at his sister with a smile before pocketing the photo. He would work it back into the album later. First...

"She," he corrected. "It's not safe at night, someone could jump you. Allow me to escort you to wherever you were going. Home, I'm guessing." He moves his umbrella to cover the other from the rain and moves the album from his armpit to his hand again trying to keep it off the rain. "I'm Taj, you?" He offered his name then, eyeing the omega. He smelled like flowers, it was a nice scent.

He begins to walk in the direction the man had been going, prompting the other to follow and eventually take the lead. "Don't worry, I'm not going to rob you. I'm a cop, that's all. It's my duty to see you to safety and the least I could do." He didn't trust New Haven's false security. People were evil, everyone had a bit of darkness within them after all, and they could turn to the dark side at any moment. He knew that, he was aware of that.

He looked up at the raining sky. The stars were dimmer here, light pollution he had been told. He missed the starry sky, he didn't miss the Royal City.

Starter for @dulcineahoneycomb

It was a dark and stormy night… Taj was out and about the city walking with an umbrella in his hands. He felt lonely and sad, he couldn't explain why. Maybe it was the rain. Yes, it had to be. He stopped by a streetlight, looking down at the ground, at the flood of water passing by the road not far from his feet. The street was deserted, his brother was asleep, and his dame and this Dante were... preoccupied. They all thought he had been asleep, but Taj couldn't sleep.

He had found a photo album with Sam in it. Memories flooding his mind about his dame, the abuse, the injustice, and now? Now he wasn't even sure if his dame was happy with this Dante guy. He couldn't stop the memories, he couldn't stop the tears from filling his eyes. He needed to breathe. He got dressed, took an umbrella, and went for a walk. Quietly. In the middle of the night. He had brought his gun with him just in case, but crime here was low. He felt safe but he couldn't trust everyone just like that, he couldn't forget the pain and his training. Never.

Taj took a step back and bumped into someone. "Dammit," he cursed after he used a wall to steady himself and not fall to the ground. "I'm sorry, it was my fault. Are you hurt?" He asked looking at the other. Omega. Double shit. "It's late. What are you doing walking around? Alone?"

@balisrivera our brotherly starter :3

He was on a chair by a window looking out the street, looking at people pass by and the rain softly touching the glass as he drank his warm cup of milk. This century was so amazing! You could shower every day, you could warm things up so easily too, and the variety of food they had! Not to mention their technology and transport too! It was amazing and he was ecstatic about it, he really was, and he was getting the hang of it by now but he still thought about his siblings often.

Back in Willowshire he knew his siblings would eventually join him, would eventually come and be with their dame and be happy with him but he had to wait for them to open up their eyes and take that decision either because they truly wanted to be with their dame or because they realize they shit world they had been living in.

As his thoughts occupied his mind, he heard the door gently open and he quickly stood up defensively just to freeze when he saw who was at the door. His dame was with Balis, one of his younger brothers. He doesn't wait for Silas to say a word, he just went running to his brother and hugs him tightly laughing in happiness. "Balis! Man! You were at Willowshire? What happened to you? What job did they give you? You staying with us, right?" He laughed at himself then. "Sorry, sorry. Come in! Are you hungry? Thirsty? There's so much for me to show you, man."

[iwilltakeitnomore]

what's a quote that your muse tries to live each day by?

The one that inspired this muse's url.

I wIll take it no more.

He tried to live his life without thinking much on his dame that was now in Willowhsire, but then his sire wanted him married and his efforts to change the system weren't working and he was tired of said system of the abuse and the power hungry people. So he decided he would take it no more and he would escape the system instead of trying to help it like he had wanted.

@mysteryxsolved starter I promised

"Here you go, partner!" Taj says with joviality as he sits on a desk with the other handing him over a hot cup of coffee. They were partnered up today but Taj wasn't exactly a detective, he was in training and kept being paired up with different people to see where he fit better he was guessing, but the fact was that it was strange and he hoped he wouldn't be paired up with anyone else. He had completed the short academy training successfully and he was ready to be a full fledge cop now not a test subject.

"So, what's the plan for today?" He asks the other. Wyatt, right? Or do you want me to call you something else?" Most people referred to him here as Rivera but he didn't mind being called by his first name. "I'm dying to get into action but I know things tend to be slow in a small city or so I'm told. I just want to be a good cop, you know?" He adds as he sips from his coffee.

@iwilltakeitnomore

Dominic was leaving the school. His mind started to wander about the changes happening in his hometown. It seemed as if there were more and more time travelers every day. It was definitely something weird to get used to but Dominic worked with children so he's seen and heard weirder. His current destination was a stop by the store. It was a rare occasion where he was going to cook himself dinner instead of eating out. Unfortunately that meant shopping and with every step he debated turning around. Regardless, he made it to the store and began his shopping. He had a plan of what he wanted to eat. He usually cooked enough food for multiple days or if he wanted to take some over to his brothers or his father. Moving through the store, he filled his cart before discovering a man that he hadn't seen before. New Haven wasn't a huge town and Dominic had lived here his entire life. Was he saying that he knew everyone? Not at all but it was more likely for him to recognize a face than not. What made the man stay out the most was the confusion on his face. Dominic approached him slowly.

"Hey? Are you okay? Do you need help with anything?" Dominic wasn't sure but the thought crossed his mind that this was one of the time travelers that were new to town.

[iwilltakeitnomore]

Taj prided himself in being a quick learner but there was simply so much to learn in this world that he found it very hard to grasp everything at once. He had decided to try and understand the basics first or figure them out by himself anyways, and while he could handle money now he was still confused by many of the products in this....market? Supermarket! He didn't understand what this place had of super, but there we go.

While he lived with his dame and...Dante, he still felt like he had responsibilities to carry and Silas had given him a list of things to buy at the market since today he was free from work but he didn't think this would be so much of a trouble as it was now. Half the items on the list he didn't understand how to get even though he knew what they were in this modern world things were different and milk was no longer what it used to be. Now it was sold cold? Strange.

He lifted his eyes when a man talked to him. He smiled at him nervously and moved the note upwards. "Yes, uhhh I don't know what most of these things look like? I'm very new in town and my dame asked me to get a these few things but I'm still trying to understand stuff. They explained money to me, so I understand how that works at least."

[lionguarded]

"they didn't let me out of their sight." he shrugged, glancing around like maybe someone was watching them, a certain feline guard he'd unfortunately had the displeasure of meeting before. but still, he saw nothing. had he been the exception? did they deem him more dangerous than his cub? was that why he'd been observed until dante stepped in? hm.

hearing his choice in work, though, made him smile softly. maybe dante was right, they were alike. a lot. "i'm with the police, too. it's similar to guard duty. you'll like it." it was like guard duty. they worked in pairs, they protected the people in town, they defended the law. "never neglect your training, taj. this world's even more dangerous than ours. heard the townsfolk talk. there's evil outside those walls." maybe they were safe now, but who could tell for how long?

fair. he deserved it. silas knew taj's opinion on dante. hell, he knew himself that dante was far from the optimal partner. they weren't even that, he didn't know what they were - it .. had no name. "i know you don't like'm. he ain't that bad though, y'know? he signed us up t'gether. sam really likes him. it's uh.." damnit, he wasn't sure what to say. or how to say it. nobody but him would ever truly understand why he let dante into his life. hell, even he didn't... really. "you got your own room. try it... for me?" hand cupped his cub's face, "we'll find you somethin' else if you hate it." he wanted his kids with him. leaving them behind in the royal city had been the most difficult decision of his life.

[iwilltakeitnomore]

"Police you say? I might ask them about it then," he says. He wants to not lose his training, especially now that his dame was warning of the dangers outside. The people who found him had said something similar too. "I have heard of some hunters outside, people who hunt our kind? The people who found me said as much, that I wasn't safe out of this city because of them and that New Haven would keep me safe but if they were telling the truth then you are right, I cannot forget my training."

"Fine, I'll try it, but I think we should have our own place and let Dante do whatever the fuck he wants to do. You deserve better, dad, an alpha, or even another omega who treats you right and cares about you, and is kind to you. Dante is...Dante sucks." He sighs and crosses his arms. He doesn't like Dante, he wasn't the man he saw his dame with, he could see someone more kind to him, someone, who cared and loved him and treated Silas like a King.

Someone called him from behind and he turned around. "Coming!" He turned to his dame then. "I have to go and finish this, where do I meet you again? Or do you want to go in with me? You're my dame, I don't see why they wouldn't allow you in with me."

[lionguarded]

"they just let you roam?" frown evident on silas' face, glancing around like everything appeared suspicious. it didn't, though. he'd been escorted through town, but maybe it was the age difference - maybe they underestimated his cub. they'd regret it, if taj had any ill-intent, which he didn't. "hm." little now. "you're fine now, stay with me." he'd deal with it if anybody had questions. he assumed the feline escort pair would come pay them a visit again soon once they found out taj was his son. he didn't mind.

"we uh.. we're living in a house. it's not far. i've been here a week, i guess. not sure. it's uh.. it's a lot." he was still getting used to it all, but he'd made great progress he'd dare say, since the day he got here. he'd had help, though. "sam's here, too. there's ...running water. hot fuckin' water." still the most fascinating thing he'd seen so far, other than the moving pictures ...television. "sam and dante landed together. he took care of her.... we uh... they lived together, so i joined 'em. it's a big ..house." yes, it wasn't cabins anymore. houses. "enough room for all of us."

"Yeah?" He confirmed with a certain doubt in his voice and tilted his head confused. Why wouldn't they? "Stay with you?" Hearing those words his eyes sparked with excitement! He'd get to spend more time with his dame! He loved Silas very much and seeing him again after long months, and now living with him was a dream come true.

"Yeah, they promised to help me learn the basics and stuff. We started with the rules and money but I haven't touched time yet. I guess living space is last so I'll tell them I'll be living with you now, they offered me some jobs and I chose police. They explained what it's like and I liked it, so I'm joining their academy. Sad that my guard training is going to waste, Orion spent a lot of time on it." he was talking a lot but he was excited and he wanted to share everything with his dame.

"Yes, they explained the running water too! It's so exciting! Can't wait to bath with hot water no, wait, they used another word...ah, yes, shower." This was going to be a bit difficult.

When he mentioned Dante, however, he growled. He didn't care if he treated Sam right, he wasn't a man he liked whatsoever and even less with his dame of all people. "Can't we move somewhere else? Just us three?" He asked.

@iwilltakeitnomore

after reuniting with his cub & the dante, who had apparently done great at taking care of little sam - no fuckin' idea how that was even possible, while silas traveled, he'd started to try & get adjusted with life in this new world, too. he'd learned that people from willowshire had been send all across this vast kingdom, which gave him hope that his other kids were out there, too. at least some of them... maybe?

weeks passed, he felt he was doing quite okay by now, he'd just dropped sam off at daycare - which willowshire had had, too, really when he saw the all too familiar feline escort with one of his cubs in tow. thank you, again, mother nature. i may spare your life ..yet.

"taj!" oh, his beautiful, beautiful boy. he still worried about the others, he always would, but just having one here was already such a relief. they seemed to be stuck in this endless cycle of goodbye & hello, but so long as silas kept getting to say hello, he didn't mind. reunion hugs were his second favorite. just holding his son close & knowing he's safe. "where the fuck were you? i thought i got here late. you alright? everythin' okay?"

[iwilltakeitnomore]

"Dad!" He says loudly hugging his dame tightly. He had gone to Willowshire to escape his terrible reality, they had hugged and said hello, and then everything happened and now they were hugging and saying hello again! It was so confusing yet exhilarating at the same time.

He looked tired, however, from all the walking and looking around. He had been found outside of New Haven and brought here and given a briefing. He was given some free time to explore the city before going back in to finish the briefing and was told not to stray far or get lost.

"I was outside of the city when I arrived, they found me and brought me here. They gave me a briefing and explained several things. I'm on my lunchtime and was told I could explore the city for a bit but I need to go back, I've just arrived. " He looked radiant, tired, but happy.

"Where are you staying? How long have you been here? Did they give you a place to stay? What should I expect?" He was full of questions.
