Henri was ready for the Halloween party. He hadn’t fussed with any particular costume. However, he had pockets laden with condoms and lube and his credit card. What else did a guy need on Halloween? With his daughter safely at his parents’ home for the night and the bad guy under lock and key, he was ready for some stress relief good times. He pushed opened the door to the Castlebrac and stepped inside, delighting in the way it was done up for the festivities. “Ready for the real party?” 

Gabi had paused to tug at her costume and ensure it was in the right position before fully committing to the party and glanced up with a smile when she recognized Henri’s voice. “I think I am, signore. I suppose I’ll find out though.”

Lachlan’s move to Breton had seemed a long one to him. He’d been busy with work and time and again been pulled into meetings for repairs on the estate he’d purchased and furnishings to order. Even though he’d only just arrived, he felt he’d known the bones of the place, just not the people. Most of his new home was a blank canvas, accented here and there with his personality and past. So, when invited to a party on the weekend after his arrival, he dug through the packed up boxes for an old World War I uniform. It was a complete replica of his great great something or other’s or so his father the historian had explained. He’d worn the thing to reenactments that his father had taken him to, and even to a few parties. The beautiful garment always oddly made him feel less social, making him dwell on the composers of the early 1900′s and putting him in the mood to sit at his piano. Still, with little time and no interest in trying to overthink what society deemed a ‘sexy’ costume for a man, he decided to call it.

Stepping into the party, Lachlan pulled off the hat and tucked it under his arm, his bright hazel eyes skimming the crowd as if he had some sort of expectation that there would be a familiar face. The truth was, he couldn’t remember a single person from when he’d moved away at the age of eight and he certainly hadn’t kept in touch. Then, as he stepped forward to head to the bar, all six feet and two inches of him nearly squashed a stranger that walked into his path- something that would happen multiple times that evening the more he drank. The liquor would only make his Australian accent all the more thick. “Blimey! Didn’t see you. Sorry about that, mate.” He humbly put a hand to his chest and nodded at the stranger, trying to decipher their ensemble.

Gabi had come to Castlebrac a few times for appointments but seeing it tonight was very different. She was certainly guilty of not looking where she was going and it wasn’t the first time that she nearly collided with someone so far and probably wouldn’t be the last of the evening. She jerked back and nearly stumbled, although she managed to keep on her feet at the last minute. “Oh god - excuse me, sir! I’m so sorry, are you all right?”

Halloween 2022

Drew laughed, “Nora stays so busy, but I think so far she’s stayed fairly consistent in her interests… but then again I’ve only been her person for a few years.” With a nod, “I’d love your card, actually. I’m sure you know you can say one thing and parent-brain hits. Give it a few days and without a post-it or something on the refrigerator you’ll completely forget you said you would do something, right?” 

“It did, but like most things, there was a price.” Andrew held his smile, kept the tone light, but it hadn’t stopped his mind from fleetingly thinking about everything he’d lost and everything he’d seen by taking this path. “When you find your calling, though, who are we to try and go against that tide, right? Do you think you’ll ever expand your business?”

“Our family in Verona had an extremely varied set of skills so she had a lot of people who encouraged her in pursuing a lot of different things, but that did happen a lot as she got a little older too.” But children did tend to focus on one things for longer periods of time too, and Dulcie was just very easily distracted. Laughing, she nodded in understanding; especially when Dulcie was younger, she had the worst time trying to remember anything. “Yes, I completely understand. Having a smartphone has really helped me remember things, which is a good thing.” 

That made sense; Gabi knew that if things had worked out like she imagined they would in her youth, she would be in a vastly different place and would have lost a lot of precious things. “Mmm, that’s true. Everything clicked into place when I started working at the bakery initially, and it was even better when I took over. And - well, technically this shop is an expansion. I started in Verona and the original shop is still there, but I certainly would be interested in opening another location in the future.”

“Oh,” Win replied, letting out a small laugh. “Well, uh, yeah that explains it. I was halfway thinking you were going to tell me you were in forties and I simply wasn’t going to believe it.” He slid a couple of bills across the counter to pay for the bread. “You’re welcome. I’ve lived here my whole life, so there’s not too many places I don’t know about.”

She laughed sheepishly, shaking her head. “No, it was just that I went a little wild when I went to university. I do have a very thorough skincare routine though.” She took the money and returned his change and a receipt. “I imagine you know the city very well. That’s been a nice thing about moving here - there are a lot of natives who are always giving good suggestions.”

Henri burst into laughter. “I thought our orgy in the storm at least had a little smoothness to it?” He teased, laughing warmly as he cupped Gabi’s face again. Henri dipped his head to claim her lips in a long, slow kiss. He smoothed his hands down her body to cup her ass and lift her off her small feet. 

Gabi giggled as well, although she was more interested in kissing him than in replying. She tightened her arms a little as he lifted her and wrapped her legs around him for good measure. “Is smooth the word to describe an orgy in the middle of a massive storm though?” She questioned, pulling back a little with a mischievous grin. “I’m not sure it’s exactly applicable.”

lin--zhang​:

Lin nodded his head, glad that he hadn’t caused the woman to feel rushed. It wasn’t an urgent request by any means. “Lin Zhang,” he said when asked for a name. “Thank you for helping me with this.” 

“I was very happy to do it! I’ll have it all ready for you tomorrow, and feel free to come back any other time too.” The bakery was doing well, and she anticipated getting busier in the next few weeks but she tried to ensure her customers liked her enough to come back.

[sweetxgabi]

win-hamon​:

Win’s eyes widened slightly; a teenager? Was the sub even old enough to have a teenager?

“O-oh, I’m sorry. I just. You look so young, I assumed your daughter was a lot, uh, younger.” It was very rare for Win to get flustered, but somehow, he was. Shaking his head, he moved to the register and pulled his wallet out. “Well, I’m glad Vannes feels like home for both of you. It is a nice place. Maybe a little quiet… but nice.”

Gabi stifled a laugh at his shock; it probably wouldn’t be polite to laugh about it, and it certainly wasn’t the first time she’d had that kind of reaction. “I was very young when I had her,” she said quickly, “and she’s only thirteen, although she acts about three years older than that sometimes.” He was right though; Vannes was quiet but she was very grateful for that, especially after everything that had happened in Verona. That had been enough excitement for her. She glanced back down to confirm the total for him, adding, “And thank you for the recommendation about the museum. I’m going to look into that.”

“Aw good! But also, don’t feel bad. Actually, I’m officially banning you from feeling bad. There is more than enough misery in this world. This is the perfect time to embrace every single iota of happiness you can get and absolutely revel in it.” If she could do one good thing, it would be to protect this kind of smile. Just because she herself was a mess, that didn’t mean anyone else needed to be. Especially not when they have so much to be happy for. 

That did seem like a logical enough statement, although Gabi probably wouldn’t be able to let go of the slight guilt that easily. She could try though. “I will do my best,” she promised. Maybe it would get easier. Returning her attention to the scones she was boxing, she tried to quell her ridiculous smile at least a little bit. “Okay, that’s enough about me though. Do you have anything exciting going on, aside from that painting project you were talking about?”

[sweetxgabi]

dominantxhenriseznec​:

He kissed her again and then nudged her further inside the house. “Good. I don’t really know what I’m doing, you know? Relationships … this whole thing is novel but I remembered my grandmere once said if you do right, you only have to do it the one time. So … I really want to make sure I do it right because I think one time with you … sounds just right.” Then he laughed, “And as you can see … I’m not smooth either.”

She moved at his direction, too wrapped up in the thrill of the conversation to even think about protesting - not that she would have anyway. She wanted to be somewhere comfortable. “I don’t have any more experience than you do,” she said with a soft laugh, stretching up to kiss his cheek. “But I think one time with you sounds perfect - and you’re smooth enough for me.” Her grin turned a little more mischievous as she added, “And anyway, I didn’t get into this thinking you were going to be smooth so it’s not like I had expectations.”

“But, will I actually miss it when it’s over?” Drew laughed softly, sipping his drink. He had his doubts, but he did truly cherish watching Nora grow up. Every picture and video on his phone was of their silly adventures. Sure, this wasn’t how he wanted to become a father, but he couldn’t imagine not being one. “That sounds like a real blessing to have been so fortunate as to have the support of family and people that chose you as their family.” Drew hoped she could hear the sincerity in his words. He knew all too well about being cut off for not following a certain mold. “You must have had a natural talent if so many people jumped on investing. I’ll have to take my Nora by so we can scope it out. She’s got a wicked sweet tooth.”

Drew shrugged. “I was never quite good in school. I struggled with attention and hyperactivity. No one would keep up with me or put in the effort to help me succeed so I transferred to a trade school. I knew I wanted to help people and I did training for firefighting and EMT work. It’s where I want to be, doing what I want to do, but I’m not sure if I chose it or it chose me. There are definitely parts of my job that have changed me. I think more kids would avoid idiolizing the career if they knew the half of it.”

“You might not, but I certainly did. Although each of Dulcie’s phases has been quite all-consuming so I don’t have much time for missing them.” She grinned, but it was true enough; Dulcie bounced from activity to activity, or interest to interest, and she just tried to keep up. It had certainly been a blessing for her to be surrounded by the Montagues in Verona, and now her family here; it made all the difference in being able to provide for Dulcie the way she wanted. “I like to think I had some sort of talent, or at least I worked hard enough. I would love to meet Nora though, so please do come visit. I think I have a card if you’d like one.”

It seemed like a rather nontraditional path, but clearly it had worked well for him. “That probably is true. But it seems like it worked out well for you, in the end.”

lin--zhang​:

Lin made a mental note of the toppings she mentioned so that he could ask Micaiai later what he liked. It was a good opportunity to learn more about his tastes. “I will keep it in mind. Thank you,” he said. When asked about the time, he hesitated. How long did it take to make a cheesecake? He didn’t want to ask for something that was undoable. “I have a break between work and classes around two o’clock in the afternoon tomorrow. Would that be okay?” 

“That’s perfectly doable,” she reassured him, making a note of the time as well. “I should be here but it might be my assistant. What name should I put this under?”

[sweetxgabi]

dominantxhenriseznec​:

He saw that true smile warm her features and chuckled at the sight of it, a grin on his own in response. “I have missed you so much, Gabi. You … you are so important to me and I … I know everything is crazy. But I really want to be with you.”

She beamed up at him for a long moment, and then as his words fully registered, her expression grew a little softer, more wondering. She leaned into him, pressing her face against his shoulder as she nodded, then said softly, “I want that too. Nothing would make me happier.” And yes, things were crazy but didn’t that just make it more important to take happiness where they could?

win-hamon​:

“Sounds plenty long enough,” Win replied, offering the submissive a smile. He pulled out his wallet, getting ready to pay for the bread once she was done packing it. “I’ve been here my whole life. My parents moved here and then had me, so… it’s been a pretty long time. Have you ever taken your daughter to the children’s museum off of fifth street? I used to love that place as a kid.”

“It’s been long enough to feel like home, anyway,” Gabi said. She paused in her work when he mentioned the children’s museum; she hadn’t been there, and it might not work for Dulcie but maybe she could talk to Henri about taking Lola there someday. Dulcie would probably enjoy it if she could be silly with Lola. “I haven’t actually but I’ll have to look into it! I’m always looking for things we can do, although it’s getting a little tricky now that she’s a teenager.” Finished with the bread, she moved over to the register to ring him up.

[sweetxgabi]

artyeliane​:

“Oh reaaaaaally?” Elle drew out the word as she leaned against the counter and close in to Gabi. It was fun to see the other woman open up a little bit more and gossip a bit, since she normally came across as so sweet and reserved. It made it a little easier as well to understand the places where she and Henri fit beyond just the flash in the pan chemistry. “So did he pass the rigorous Dulcie test, or does he need to study up for a retake?” 

“He passed with flying colors.” Dulcie wasn’t a hard kid to get along with - Gabi might be biased in that regard, of course, but Dulcie had always charmed the adults she met. She’d been a little suspicious of Henri at first, but he hadn’t seemed phased in the slightest. “I feel a little bad, I think? Because everything is sort of crazy right now and I’m just really happy.” 

[sweetxgabi]

lin--zhang​:

“Toppings…?” Lin wondered if Micaiai would like toppings. He hadn’t thought to ask such a thing. Would it seem a bit stingy to go without though? “I suppose I’d better stick with something traditional.” Logic won out. It was a possibility Micaiai wouldn’t like the topping he chose. Lin knew he liked cheesecake and that was the extent to which he knew Micaiai’s dessert-related loves. 

“Oh yes, you know - blueberry or strawberry or chocolate or anything really.” Just plain was always good though, and Gabi was partial to it herself and so she nodded as he spoke. “Always a good option to start with, and if your partner wants something different next time, you can always come back.” She offered a grin as she finished her notes and glanced back up. “What time would you like it ready tomorrow?”
