Emeralda looked up as Xanthous walked into her room.

“Fire off. My things are flammable.” she said, then went back to what she was doing, which was working on making pearls. Emeralda may have been able to make and manipulate minerals, gems, and rocks, but pearls were not technically any of those. She liked to make them to help herself go to sleep.

Xanthous flopped onto her bed, flames extinguishing. “Ugh!” he complained, rolling over to stare at the ceiling with an annoyed look.

“Is something wrong?” Emeralda asked, turning away from her project and walking to the back of her cave-like room to grab an extra set of metal sheets for the fire-fairy.

“Nah, just feeling not great since the whole world ending thing.” he took the blanket and laid it over himself. “It just feels like it happened way to often.”

“Well, do you remember when we were kids?” Emeralda asks, sitting next to him on the bed, on her normal bed sheets. “every fucking year there was some more bullshit.”

“You should curse more. The human Royals would lose their shit.” Xanthous commented. Then he sighed, sitting up and pulling the blanket around himself. “And I mean, yeah, but that was three incidents, and they mostly just affected the magical community, not everyone.”

“Eh, you did commit a genocide. Well, not a genocide, but you killed a lot of people.” Emeralda joked to him, giggling.

“That wasn’t me.” Xanthous said, tossing a pillow at her. “Anyway, other then that, and the whole ‘Righteous Emperor trying to take over the world’ thing, it really only affected the Magical community. And most definintly not two different worlds.”

“Mm, yeah, fair. But face it, if ‘Emperor Gallant’ was alive, he would try and take over the Otherworld.” Emeralda said the name in a mocking tone, as he fucking deserved.

“Mmm. He would.” Xanthous laughed. “He probably would have done better then them to. I mean, I don’t support him, but he would have been effective about it.”

“Mmm… true. He would have been. Though, considering we’re about a billion times more powerful then we were when we were kids, we could stop him pretty quickly.” Emeralda said.

“Yeah.”

The two fairies continued to sit in silence, Xanthous quickly heating some water into hot chocolate, passing it over to Emeralda. His metal blanket was wrapped almost completely around him, his arms gently poking out and it rested, bunched up, on his shoulders.

Emeralda took a long sip of her hot chocolate and tapped her fingers against her dress, forming a plate of some type of gem underneath it. Her finger nails tapped against the crystal, making a gentle and ASMR-esque tapping sound.

“You ever think we go to far pretending we’re weaker then we are so no one forces us to help them?” Xanthous asked, taking a sip of his hot chocolate.

Emeralda looked over at him. “Huh? No.” She shrugged. “Literally no one asks me to help them ever. It’s so easy. I literally never have to save the world anymore.”

Xanthous shrugged slightly, and he sipped more of his hot chocolate. He shrugged off his blanket and pulled out a deck of cards.

Emeralda raised her eyebrows. She vanished her crystal and smiled, leaning forward.

“Play?” Xanthous asked.

“Play?” she asked with a laugh. “Nah, not right now.” Despite her words, Emeralda took the deck of cards out of his hands and started to expertly shuffle them with a flick of her wrists.

“You spend too much time with Lucy.” Xanthous said, still taking his cards and getting ready. “What are we betting?”

“Winner can ask the loser one request, no refusing, nothing explicit, nothing deadly.”

“M’kay.” Xanthous looked up. “Go.”

Maybe if Ashira didn't ask about it, didn't draw attention to it, Peter wouldn't bring what looked like a whole goddamn cargo container into her house. But she watched as the man used his weirdo superhuman strength to hoist it over his head and carry it to her doorstep. So, arms crossed in a way that it supported Sadaf in her shoulder sling, Ashira leaned against her doorjamb. "And what the hell is that?" she asked.

Peter stopped at the first step to wait for Ashira to let him pass. "Stuff for Sadaf!" he said, smiling within the shadow of the crate over his head.

"...Of course..." Ashira stepped out of the way and covered her arms protectively over their baby as Peter struggled to get the crate in, watching him twist it one way and the other. "And don't break my door!"

"Relax, I won't!" And with a wooden crack of the container, Peter squeezed the crate into a slightly dented shape to finally get the thing through. In one of the holes, Ashira could see an unopened and colorful toy package.

In the living room, Peter nudged the coffee table out of the way and set the container down in the emptied space. "Whoo, finally!" He stretched his back and rubbed and rolled his neck. "I think I'm gonna need an ice pack after that."

"Okay, hold on a second," Ashira went to the kitchen and dug out a bag of peas, listening to further groaning and cracking of wood. When she returned, she found Peter squatting by the crate, the top ripped open. She handed the bag of peas to him and sat on the couch, kissing between Sadaf's brow.

The more stuff Peter took out of the crate with one hand, using the other holding the bag of peas to his neck, the more Ashira resisted the urge to pinch and rub the bridge of her nose. "Some of this stuff is going to your place, right?" Ashira asked, because it was going to be a nightmare to rearrange her and Sadaf's room to fit all of this stuff in, even with Naseem's crap gone.

"Of course!"

Ashira had expected the trove to stop, but it just kept going, Peter pulling out one thing after another, stuff that Sadaf wouldn't even need for another few months (no... years, according to Peter and whatever fucked-up law of immortality that dictated these avatars' lives). It was a bottomless pit.

"What is all of this stuff, anyway?" Ashira asked to distract herself from snapping at Peter for all of this... frivolous spending!

"Stuff for Sadaf, like I said!" Peter set the peas on the couch behind him and picked up one of the items he had set in one of the piles. "Uncle Lukas went a little crazy buying some of this stuff, but they're high-end and super awesome! Like this activity tent with a whole bunch of sensory items! It's supposed to boost a preemie's brain development so they can catch up with other babies. And this heated baby pillow--"

"She's going to get too hot with that--"

"Not unless we use the lowest setting! Oh, and this super cute galaxy light with a Bluetooth speaker! And, oh! Her clothes! One of the fashion photographers I work with helped me to get an awesome deal on this stuff! Look at this! A plaid hat and jumper set! Isn't it adorable!" Ashira did have to admit that it was cute, but she had no need to speak when Peter went on, "Oh! And I got this for her!"

He didn't reach in the crate or for one of the piles this time. Instead, he dug into his pants pocket, pulling out a royal blue velvet box with a silver bird -- phoenix? Eagle? -- alloy logo imprinted on top. Peter moved up onto the couch and opened the box, showing Ashira the silver seashell with a tiny pearl inset, set with a delicate-looking silver chain.

"Peter, oh my god," Ashira said, "It's beautiful."

"Ain't it, though?" Peter started taking the necklace out. "I was just going to buy the chain to replace her old one, but my advance was pretty big so I thought, 'why not commission something for Sadaf?"

Ashira looked up into Peter's face. "You had this commissioned? My god, Peter, how much did this cost?!"

"Nothing for you to worry about!" Peter beamed brightly. He reached into the folds of the sling cradling his child, digging in one of the pockets with his fingers until he found just what he was looking for. He pulled it out, careful to not disturb his napping daughter, and laid it on his lap.

The coin would need a bit of polishing, though it did seem like Ashira was trying her best. There was still quite a bit of shine to Princess Joan's profile, and even the wording seemed free of gunk and dust. Though, the hole drilled above the princess's head will need scraping to keep it from rusting and degrading.

But that will come later. Peter unlatched the old chain's hook and slid the coin off, sliding it onto the new chain where it clinked against the seashell charm. Holding it up, Peter cooed to Sadaf, "Look, little chip! Isn't it pretty, just like you!"

And as Peter looped the chain to a smaller size and fitted it over Sadaf's head, Ashira sighed and grinned, shaking her head and feeling warmth bloom in her chest. This little girl is going to have him wrapped around her pinky, she thought.
