“Your delinquent child is outside, and I have assured him that he is very, very grounded.”

Between Yeza and the campers still waiting for their parents to arrive from around the coast to collect them, Veth wasn’t sure any of them saw her move between the dining room and the foyer before she’d thrown the front door open.

Outside, Caleb held Luc by the back of the vest, neither of them looking any worse for wear. Behind them, Jester and Fjord looked a bit sheepish, though not nearly as sheepish as her son, who had almost curled into himself beneath the venomous look she’d given him.

“I thought you were dead! You're never leaving this house again! I couldn't get in contact with anyone and I thought you were fucking dead!” she screeched, before any of them could move, but Luc almost kept pace with her, slipping from his godfather’s grasp and, to her surprise, likely to the others’ surprise as well, threw his arms around her.

“I’m sorry, Mom, I should’ve listened to you, I’ll stay grounded for as long as you want—“

Veth spluttered for a moment, though her arms wrapped around him in return. This had not been how he’d returned under Kingsley’s grasp, caught by the ear and cursing up a storm.

It took a long moment to realize that Luc was trembling beneath her grasp. Very faintly, but definitely trembling.

She looked over his shoulder at Caleb, then Fjord and Jester. “There have been… several lessons learned in the past thirty-six hours,” Caleb said, his tone even stonier than his expression.

Fjord nodded slightly in agreement, carrying the weight of agreement. Her grasp on her son tightened, and she kissed his hair. Her sharp tone felt empty and hollow even to her own ears.

“Don’t you ever run away again— Don’t you know what I’d do if you were killed—“

“I know, Mom,” Luc interrupted, and for the first time in weeks— months— a long fucking time— he didn’t sound petulant.

He sounded like her boy.

“I kept him safe,” Caleb said flatly, also without any defensiveness. There was, even for Caleb, a dark flame behind his eyes. It felt like a spark she hadn’t seen in quite a few years.

“He was very particular about it,” Jester agreed, and then, in a poorly-disguised whisper, “Trent.”

Veth’s grip tightened, and she pulled Luc aside, away from the doorway. “Come in, tell me all about it—“ she pulled back and checked him over as Caleb nodded and passed inside. “You’re all in one piece, you’re alright—?”

“Yeah, Mom,” he agreed, with exhaustion. “Uncle Deuce made sure we were all in one piece.”

Jester pouted as she passed. “I also made sure you were okay, alright, but Caduceus is so helpful, you know, and honestly, in the end, it wasn’t even that bad— we saved most of the town, and we had a great party, and—“

She stopped her rambling in the middle of the doorway and clapped both hands to her mouth as Luc ducked under both of them into the house.

“Oh. My. Gods, Veth, you will not believe— Fjord proposed to me—“

With the number of things Jester had just imparted to her, it was honestly a testament to her own intelligence that Veth managed to process them in time to turn to Fjord just as he started up the steps, stopping him in his tracks.

“You what? And I missed it—?!”

"You know, Jester, I think we can let Caleb debrief the Brenatto family alone—"

She had him by the ear before he could move, which was an impressive feat considering he was over half her height, but he was almost as slippery of a bastard as she was.

Within an instant, he'd turned to mist in her grasp and vanished to the other side of the street, Jester complaining behind her all the while. Veth shrieked after him. "You piece of shit!"

In response, he yelled, "That's soon-to-be Admiral Tusktooth-Lavorre to you!"

Okay but when do we get the Orphan Taker?

I want to see Mama Yasha! I’ve been waiting for BeauYasha babies since the campaign two wrap up!

After the conversation at the end of Mighty Nein Reunion Part 2 I thought for sure they’d have some kiddos by the Apogee Solctice

Okay, i see others getting frustrated that Essek, though actively mentioned, didn't show up. And while yes, I can understand the ire, consider this instead:

Essek was hanging out with Kingsley somewhere around Darktow. Kingsley is the new Plank King, and Essek found a lovely safe hiding spot with him and his crew in Darktow. They get along really well - Kingsley reminds Essek a bit of his brother, and it's nice to feel free.

But wait, I can make it funnier. What if both of them get the Donna Noble treatment. What if all of the solstice shit goes down and by the time the rest of the Nein find them they just straight up missed it all.

Nein: "OH MY GOD YOU GUYS ARE OKAY!!!!!"

Essek & Kingsley: "Yeah, we were just finishing our mai tais. Why, what's going on?"

Nein: "HAVE YOU SEEN THE FUCKING MOON IN THE SKY?????? THE SOLSTICE???? THE ALIENS?????"

Essek & Kingsley: "Huh, we haven't seen much around here. It's been all foggy and misty, which has actually been great for us. Kingsley used it as cover to sneak up on some rival ships so we could steal their cargo and....."

I just think it would be fucking hilarious if Essek & Kingsley were as clueless about the Solstice Shenanigans as Donna Noble was about the Cyberman invasion.

"I was scuba diving in Spain." = "We were having mai tais in Darktow."

i have seen a few posts now about fjord's echoes of the solstice art look being cuz he wears slutty pirate costumes because jester asks him too AND i finally hit episodes 97 and 98 (which deserve full breakdowns in their entirety) but CLEARLY fjord letting jester decide his outfits started EARLY and with the pirate hat like he was fully ready to wear that no matter how silly it looked if jester told him that he should!

the sweet part of it all was that Marion was so ready to get him a new hat and encourage him, and equally ready to let the joke go — she's been so nice to him since they first met and like i fully believe that even if fjord and jester have only just gotten engaged fjord has been a mama's boy from the beginning (in the best way possible bc who wouldn't be if marion lavorre was your mum) 🥺

I love, love, love Jester for interrupting this sick façade. Don’t let the bastard have the satisfaction of playing out his games.

Booked flights for the London live show today. My parents are very generously coming up for 3 days to look after the kids to make sure we have plenty of time for travel and maybe getting an extra bit of time in London. It's going to be my first time leaving my 4.5 year old for more than 3 hours at a time (since we don't live near family so childcare isn't frequently available)... Last time I had a night away with no kids I was like 3 weeks pregnant with the 4.5 year old so it's been A WHILE. I really hope it goes well! 😬

But I'm SO EXCITED to get to see this live show! I spent months thinking and how much I'd be willing to pay and how far I'd be willing to travel and now I actually have tickets. It's surreal! 😭❤️

still not over caleb having spell mastery of fortune's favor. he's a wizard living and working in the heart of the empire, who's likely still very judicious with his use of dunamancy in front of others, and yet he chose that spell to cast without effort, a little piece of the dynasty that he still carries as one of the first spells essek ever taught him. you can't tell me this isn't the wizard equivalent of keeping a picture of your boyfriend in your wallet

I'm just thinking about those family secrets and drama that people don't tell the kids about because kids can blurt things out in mixed company even with the best intentions, that you only learn when your mom says something offhand about "And that's why your cousin lived with us for a year," while you're helping in the kitchen at 11pm the night before a holiday and it recontextualizes a whole bunch of stuff from when you were nine and things didn't quite add up but also you were having a great time having sleepovers with your cousin, but also this context raises a LOT of other questions.

So in that regard, it is so funny to wonder like, how much Luc actually knows about Essek. Has he actually met him? I presume he has, but in that case, was he in disguise? Does Luc know him by an alias? Is Essek one of those family members who shows up to events very intermittently and no one really talks about? For that matter, how much does he know about Caleb's history?

I'm just imagining him hearing the "Shadowhand" comment in the Archive and not knowing who the fuck this geezer is talking about let alone why his godfather's being threatened until Aunt Jester says, "And he's going to hurt Essek," and putting a lot of things together that also raises more questions than it answers like
