hello this is an infodump about my probably-never-going-to-be-finished fic for the magic college au (it is Very Long)
basically like halfway through may i started this fic where (if you didnt read the tumblr post which is fine im about to tell you all about it anyways) I took all the lodgers, gave them super powers and stuck them into college (originally it was high school but that felt weird since they're supposed to be adults)
Here's me explaining all the powers and why I chose them now because I Can
Henry and Edward have the same power bc theyre still one physical being, Henry most reflects the "original", but pretty much when he was a little kid he accidentally used his power on himself and split his personality/being into two, creating Henry Jekyll (The "good") and Edward Hyde (The "bad"). Edward likes to hold it over him that as much as he likes to pretend he *isnt* the original and is just as much of a fragment as he is. Henry avoids using his powers now, but his friends and family kepts "casually" nudging him to try a school for exploring your powers, so now he's in one. His power is a lot more than what he did to himself, it just allows him to manipulate emotions, thoughts and memories. It was called "Disconnect" because the only way he knows how to use it is to shut off said things (for example, if someone is having a panic attack he could just turn their emotions off. he wont though, because he has no clue how to reverse it)
Ito is like, one of the most important characters just because of her power. Her power is like the opposite (kinda). It's called 'Connect', and it allows her to connect two or more people together through various means. Senses, thoughts, emotions, memories, etc. She hasn't unlocked much of its capabilities because she doesn't know how to control it, and one of the few times she's used it it was on her brother and he still holds a grudge on her for it. She accidentally Connects their entire dorm floor on the first day there. After those three the rest of the abilities are kinda basic and not super relevant to the plot i already came up with, but im sure theyll find a use at some point George Bird, who prefers to be called Bird, has chlorokinesis (which means he can manipulate plants) because in the comic his expertise is  Crypto-horticulture which is just like-- magic plants basically. So now he has a magic that deals with plants Christopher Archer, who prefers to be called Archer, has telekinesis. He often uses it to help himself while messing around with inventions or repairs (his family wasn’t exactly well off, so he was often the one repairing broken things. good thing he has a knack for it), he’s just in the college to learn something more and get away from home James Maijabi can communicate with spirits, it’s driven him a little bonkers but at least most ghosts fade after a period of time and stop bugging him. He doesn’t use the ability to do much, but he has successfully solved a murder once. He’s in the college to learn to banish the ghosts, and to maybe use them to his advantage. Ranjit Helsby can breathe underwater as his expertise in the comic is  Bathynautical Exploration, which if i remember right means he just explores the oceans. I thought it was fitting. He’s at the college to practice his power in a safe, controlled environment and see if there’s any hidden aspects to it. Lily Lavender can teleport, she doesn’t have much control on it as it only manifested in full a little under half a year ago. She often teleports around uncontrollably when excited, and it has turned into more than a few accidents. She just wants to learn to control it. Eleanora Cantiloupe can levitate herself and other objects, she wants to learn to life heavier objects and bring herself higher off the ground without risking falling off a building or crushing herself with a bowling ball. Jackson Griffin can turn himself and other living creatures invisible, which he discovered around age 8 when he turned his cat invisible and thought it died/ran away. The invisibility wore off after Griffin thought he was going insane feeling a cat-like weight on him while he was sleeping or hearing ghost purrs. Walter Pennybrigg’s ability is called ‘Lifelike’ and he can bring inanimate objects to life, he wants to learn how to make the time limit of half an hour longer. Anthony Sinnett can control fire, he wants to learn how to stop sparking when angry or excited and not catch random things on fire without noticing.  Martin Mosley can block light in such a way that seems as though they’re manipulating shadows, they want to see if there’s any way to make this useful. Baxter Tweedy can turn himself into a being of electricity and go from various electronic and manipulate them from inside. He wants to make sure he never gets stuck inside any electronic and maybe learn to manipulate things from the outside. Robert Lanyon can manipulate water, he just wants to stop accidentally splashing people when he gets pissed off. Jonathan Luckett’s ability is called ‘Combustion’ and it does exactly what it sounds like it does; make things explode. He just wants to be able to explode things without burning a hosue down. Rachel Pidgely can heal living beings, she wants to learn to heal bigger wounds after her brother died and she couldn’t help him. Charles Tanis can bring things back from the dead (temporarily, after half an hour they become zombie-like and after another fifteen minutes they drop dead, unable to be ressurected again), he wants to make his time limit longer and possibly re-ressurect previously ressurected beings. Jasper Kaylock, his ability is called ‘Werewolf’, he can shapechange between a fully human form, fully wolf form and anthro wolf form, he has heightened senses and is naturally much stronger and faster. He wants to be able to control his shapechanging, because currently he’s human during the day, anthro wolf at night and full wolf on full moons.  Victoria Frankenstein, ‘Sentience’, gives sentience to a being capable of containing it, and it is currently permanent with the exclusion of death. She wants to make the sentience non-permanent or learn to control those she gives it to. Creature, a product of Frankenstein’s attempts to create a new species, she has yet to kill him so he simply follows her around After arriving at the school Rachel and Jasper start gathering their dorm-hall mates (as everybody on this list all lives on the same floor/hall but in seperate rooms) for a shopping trip. sometime on this trip Ito accidentally Connects the entire party together, but it doesnt really hit until they all get back. There’s about fifteen minutes of everybody panicking, which created an obnoxious feedback loop of panic. Ito, familiar with her own ability (kinda), Henry, familiar with sharing a mind with another, and Rachel, naturally good at handling hers and others emotions, all manage to detangle themselves from the mess and start calming people down. They all make their way out into the common room where Ito admits that she really didn’t mean to do this, and she has no idea how to fix it. They have to figure out living with their minds all mangled up for at least a couple weeks now. In this time, they discover a few secrets about each other. Frankensteins dead girlfriend, Jekyll’s secret ability and even more secret other half, jasper’s werewolf downsides, rachel’s dead brother, the list goes on.  annd that’s all ive got anygays enjoy your day

Talking about Rurouni Kenshin 2023
I'm going to write a lot and I might have a bit of spoiler!!!
As a fan of Rurouni Kenshin from 1996, and now that a new adaptation came out this year I wanted to give a little opinion of my own, focusing on the comparisons I've seen of the current animated version with the 96 version.
However, I think that in order to see and enjoy both adaptations it is necessary to clarify several points, and the first of them is the intention behind each adaptation and which points can be compared and which others cannot.
Clearly, both adaptations have been made under different directions, by different companies and different times, aimed at different target audiences. And this can be clearly reflected from the first chapters aired to date (at the time of writing this review). Actually, I don't want to talk in depth about Jin-e Udo's arc yet, since in anime 2023 the battle between them and several of the arcs that are still to be broadcasted have not been released yet, but I think episode 6- Kurogasa, serves to illustrate how the current adaptation seeks to move away from its 96 counterpart despite being the chapters with less changes from each other.
To begin with, the contextualization and presentation of characters...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While in both the manga and the anime 2023, we are given a little contextualization of the situation. We are not introduced to Mr. Tani, the person Kenshin must protect at the request of one of the policemen, he is a rather arrogant man who currently holds a political office so he has enough money at his disposal to hire many men to protect them against the threat of an assassin. Although, at the beginning he refuses with arrogance, when Kenshin reminds him how he protected him during the Bakumatsu, Mr. Tani's expression changes radically, adding that all his bodyguards are useless since Sanosuke himself has crushed them in previous times.
Much of this context is omitted in the 1996 version, and it is only pointed out that Kenshin has to go to protect Lord Tani, in the face of Kurogasa's threat.
Also the presentation of Jin-e are very different proposals. In the original version, it is done from the viewer's point of view. We can see Jin-e ruthlessly murdering the guards until he appears in the room. In that way, we are introduced how this is a ruthless killer who makes his way.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While in the 2023 version (and in the manga) it is left to the expectation. Neither Sano nor Kenshin see Jin-e killing directly, they only see the bodies he has left in his path until he makes a surprising presence in the room just when he attacks one of the bodyguards and that is when we see him kill the bodyguards.
Here we see how the approach of both anime is very different. While the original version, seeks to focus more on the killer Kenshin will face and the combat, to convey to the viewer the intimidating feeling of a new enemy. The current version, focuses more on setting the context and showing us the relationship Kenshin has had in the past during the battles. Each chapter shows us key pieces of what Kenshin was like during his Hitokiri era, as well as how those who participated in the war relate to the current government and Meji era.
In Rurouni Kenshin the social and political context is one of the bases of its story, as it is directly inspired by real events. While the character of Lord Tani is irrelevant in many ways. It serves to expose once again that many of those who participated in the war took positions of importance in politics and economics, becoming arrogant people who use power to their convenience. Something Kenshin is against.
Now, really my point is not to talk about which version is better or worse....or if the current version is better for being faithful to the manga or if it is a bad adaptation for not being the same as the 90's version.
But to understand that the original version was never intended to be 100% faithful to the manga, but rather an interpretation using the manga as a guide. The fundamental elements of the manga are respected and maintained, at the same time subtle and continuous changes are made that change the story. I understand that many of these changes are not really important but substantially give a very different interpretation at the narrative level. While this adaptation seeks to be faithful to the manga, following almost in its entirety the events that the original format raised.
The remake is not a remastering of the '96 anime, but rather an adaptation completely detached from its predecessor to stick only to the manga. And this can be reflected in all the number of decisions that the direction has had, from not using the original voice cast, the change in the drawing style, not using the (iconic) soundtrack of the original, not remastering the ending and opening version. Evidently, the current version aims to capture a more current audience, proposing a version that is more attached to modernity. The goal in itself is not to appeal to nostalgia to please the established fandom, but to capture a new one that may or may not have seen the original. And that's why I think many people don't like the differences between the two adaptations.
In my opinion, I don't see anything wrong with the adaptations being different. In fact, I think to a certain extent it's good that they don't play it safe by copying what the '96 anime achieved.
However, despite how faithful the Remake is to the manga, I consider that it has several points to be solved that makes it subtract points.
For starters, several of the comedy scenes that ARE in the manga are omitted. (There are scenes that are adapted while others are omitted) Which, well… I understand the desire to stick to a serious tone and rhythm, I don't pretend that they add comic scenes that are not necessary. But the comedy in the manga was not randomly placed, but emphasized the dynamic between the characters and gave more contrast to Kenshin's personality which is sweet, relaxed and somewhat silly, contrary to his Battousai personality. Subtle details like Kenshin ready to unsheathe the sword, but seeing Kaoru they end up cutting their finger, I think details that make the difference.
Not to mention that really the OST is unremarkable. It's not bad, but it doesn't usually stand out with the scene. I can understand not recycling the previous one, but a new one could be proposed to go with a better scene.
Most importantly, do not raise new technical resources:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just like the OST, I really don't think that making a carbon copy of the '96 work is the best thing to do. But it would be great if, while not using the same techniques, they at least come up with some new ones.
In '96, the change of color, the use of negative, slow motion, worked to make the dramatic scenes stand out. The drama was intended to be more impactful and contrasting with the comedy and serenity of the rest of the scene. While in the current version (2023), we can see Kenshin's face very well drawn, his anger as Battousai is clearly seen, but there is a lack of ambience that envelops us in the tragic atmosphere as Kaoru's kidnapping. Although these are just details, I hope that for future fights they will focus on giving more emphasis to the combats and manage to transmit the epicness of this work.
Finally, I think that the 1996 adaptation is an incredible work that unfortunately was not completed, and really as a fan of the original anime and manga I think it is worth giving a chance to the remake that shows a lot of potential. The voice cast seems very good (I personally like the new voice of Kenshin) and the animation is quite fluid, and I like the drawing style, however, it has some considerable details to be polished. Although at the moment there are very few chapters broadcasted, there is still a long way to go to see the best fights. The point of comparing is in a constructive way to see those details that can or could have been better in both adaptations, without detracting from the achievements that each one has. Since both stand out in very different ways.

I should be weird and ask about 'other secret fic w/tanis' like i can't go open the document haha
So instead...
Accidental sleeping pill
:)
I mean you could! I'll share a tiny snippet of it if that's okay
The phone buzzes in his hand as Eddie pulls it out, and he smiles as he adjusts his hold on the basket full of bread, milk, and eggs. Buck probably had that weird sixth sense of his where he knew when Eddie was thinking of him.  Except when he looks at the caller ID, it isn’t a photo of his husband with two young faces squished up against his, staring back at him. Instead, it’s a blank screen with PRIVATE displayed.  He hesitates, thumb hovering over the screen. Eddie didn’t exactly feel like getting sucked into another telemarketers droning conversation in the middle of the grocery store on his day off. But something in his gut has him swiping to accept the call, lifting the device to his ear. “Hello?” The voice on the other end of the line is muffled and tinny, and he can hear a faint, repetitive beeping in the background. “Is this Mr. Diaz?” Eddie adjusts his hold on the phone, tucking it between his ear and shoulder as he spots the flavour he’s going to get for Buck - orange chocolate chip. “Yes, this is him. Who’s speaking?” “Mr. Diaz, I’m Dr. Peters from Cedars-Sinai Hospital..."

No idea what you’ve answered:

TANIS!
🪐 ⇢ name three good things going on in your life right now
I've been writing every day for over two pulls months, which is cool and I'm very proud of it
My best friend is coming in TODAY.
I now own a kitchen aid mixer.
🪲 ⇢ add 50 words to your current wip and share the paragraph here (again, more than 50 words)
Buck would love to say that PT goes just as he thought it would, but it was actually worse. He woke up in enough pain that it set his teeth on edge, but he knew he couldn't cancel, so we got up, he showered, and he drove to the office.
Every moment hurt. More than once, he ended up just on his gritting his teeth through the pain and trying to catch his breath.
"You're not making the progress you should be, Mr. Buckley," says his physical therapist, Bella. "You need to make sure you're doing your at-home exercises every day." And she has the same look on her face that Maddie did, that Bobby had the last time he came over. Disappointment. Bella is just one more person that Buck has let down.
🐝 ⇢ tag your biggest supporter(s) and say one nice thing about them
@tizniz Tanis! You are so kind, and you're so wonderful. I'm so grateful for you! I also appreciate you talking through fic ideas with me!!!
@friendly-chaos FC, you're honestly the cheerleader of everybody you care about and that is so lovely, but you're also just kind and funny and a good friend friend even when you're not being a lil chaos-pillar.

As I said, a very long list. Hope it's useful though!

6: “he’s your brother!” With Thomas Bordeleau
6: he's your brother!
tani speaks: i apologise if the french translation is wrong, i used google translate. but if anyone knows what it should actually say would you mind telling me so that i can change it please? <3
“come on cherie, i think my hair looks fine,” thomas told you. you shook your head and refused to give in to his ego.
you and thomas met one evening when you were visiting michigan. the two of you met at a bar and hit it off immediately. thomas was a smooth talker and he managed to make his way to your hotel room that night. 
“thomas, your hair looks disgusting. i mean who decided to cut your hair into a mullet,” you complained turning to your side. the two of you were talking on facetime.
thomas was back home and you were visiting your best friend. jade bordeleau. you met jade at a soccer competition and were attached to each others hips ever since. 
well as close as the two of you could be living far away from each other. you and jade had decided to meet up in montreal, she was dying to introduce you to her family and you couldn’t wait to meet them. 
“mon amour, when we see each other again, i will show you that my hair looks perfectly alright,” thomas promised. “i have to go now, my sister invited one of her friends over for dinner and i have to get ready.”
you said goodbye to thomas before you, yourself went to get ready for your dinner with jade. finally, you settled on one of thomas’s shirts with jeans. 
“y/n/n, it’s been so long!” jade greeted you as you entered her house. she introduced you to her father and her mother. “sorry, we’re just waiting for my brother. he’s a bit of a drama queen,” jade whispered. 
“ thomas viens vite ou je te coupe tous les cheveux” (thomas come quick or i will cut all your hair) jade yelled. you could hear movement from upstairs as jade’s brother sauntered down the stairs. 
“i’m here you happy?” he asked rhetorically. it didn’t take you long to recognise the voice because once you did, you stopped looking at the houses furniture and at your boyfriend instead. 
“thom?” you asked giving him a quizzical look. thomas didn’t say anything as he brought you n for a hug and lifted you up. “mon amour, what are you doing here?” bords questioned. 
“hold on y/n, how do you know my brother?” jade asked, pulling you and thomas away from each other. 
“he’s your brother! the one you told me to stay away from?” you looked between bords and jade. there were definitely some similarities between the two of them, ones you would’ve been blind to miss out.
jade nodded her head “how long has this been going on?” she asked. the question was directed towards you but bords was the one who answered.
“we’ve been dating for around a year now jade, so if you don’t like it then tough shit,” he swore. thomas’s mother gave him a stern look which he ignored.
instead your boyfriend held a tight grip around your waist and showed you the dining table. “now this can be a meet jade’s friend and meet thomas’s girlfriend dinner,” mrs bordeleau suggested.
she gave you a bright smile as she watched how caring her son was around you. you smiled back at her and nodded.
“that would be brilliant!” you agreed.

Chapter 2 - The reunion (ka hui hou ana)
The flight to California was uneventful. Grace fell asleep within the first 20 minutes and Danny just sat thinking about how crazy this all was. Last night when he went to bed he thought that today was going to be like any other day, that he was going to wake up, get the kids their breakfast, say goodbye to Grace for the day, drop Charlie off to school and head to work where he would spend the day going through paperwork. But instead he was on a flight to California because the man that he may or may not have been in love with for 10 years decided to contact him after 2 years. When it was put that way he sounded like a complete and utter idiot and he blames Steve for that. I mean you spend 10 years with crazy, you end up crazy. But at the end of the day when it came to Steve, Danny couldn't help but run to him. Love makes you crazy.
Getting off of the flight, Danny and Grace were both exhausted but they grab their bags, grab some coffee because they both needed it, they knew it was going to be a long day. They rented a car because Grace said that it would be easier and if Danny was completely honest, he was too tired to argue with her, even with the coffee. The car drive took a little longer than anticipated because of traffic but then again it also may have been because Danny was stressing out. The closer he got the more nervous he got. It was his first time seeing Steve in 2 years and this mystry of why he was calling in the middle of the night asking him to come was making it worse.
Grace could see her dads hands gripping the steering wheel tighter, so she places her hand on his knee and gives him a smile. He looks over at her and give her a gentle smile.
"I know this is going to be hard for you but i'm here" she assures him and he just gives her a small smile before turning his attention back to the road. Grace turns her attention back to her phone as she sends a text to Tani telling her that they had arrived and would be reaching the hospital soon and would call later.
Having reached the hospital, the two spend longer sitting in the car trying to gather themselves then they would both like to admit but with a squeeze of each others hands they gathered the strength to walk in. Danny didnt know what to think having walked in but he just decided to focus on finding Steve.
They walk over towards the desk with friendly smiles on their faces. "Umm hi. So we were just wondering if you had anyone named Steve McGarrett come in here with a patient. We are some family" Danny explained. The receptionist looks at for a second before giving them a sad smile. "Umm yes i know who you are asking for. Mr McGarrett asked if you could meet him in the NICU" she says passing on the information. Danny and Grace looked at each other confused. Grace turns to the receptionist,"Did you say NICU" she asks and all the receptionist just nods. Danny grabs Graces hand and pulls her along with him as he walks.
"Thank you very much" he says to the receptionist before fully turning with Grace in tow. Danny looks at the signs pointing the, in the direction towards the NICU. The walk felt like an eternity, never ending. NICU, why would Steve be in the NICU Danny kept asking himself over and over again.
They reach the NICU and stop at the glass door knowing that they couldnt go in. "What do we do now" Grace asks, turning to Danny. Danny sighs pulling out his phone.
"I'll ring the number back" he says to her hitting the call button. The phone rings and rings and ring. No answer. Danny groans shoving the phone baack into his pocket. Grace sighs before turning to the doors again and then she sees him. Uncle Steve. God he looked bad. Large, heavy bags were under his eyes. His skin was pale and he looked exhausted.
"Danno" Grace says tapping him on the shoulder and thats when Danny sees him. He stopped breathing. He had thought about this for so long. What their reunion would be like if Steve ever returned. He never thought it was going to be in a hospital. Steve lifts his head and his step falters a little bit at the sight of the two of them and then he speeds up a little bit pushing the door open and coming face to face with them.
Danny and Steve just look at each other for what seems like forever. Graces eyes flickering between the two of them. "Steve" Danny lets the name slip out of his mouth and Steve cant help but crumble, breaking down sobbing and Danny grabs him, pulling him tightly into his embrace and holding him close. "Danno I..." Steve starts and Danno shakes his head.
"Hey im here now". Grace looks at the pair not knowing how to feel. Throughout this whole thing she had been so angry at Steve for leaving her Danno. For destroying him and the Ohana that they had created. But now as she stands and looks at him she feel any anger towards him but sorrow and also it made her relise how much she missed him.
Steves eyes flicher to her and he pulls back from Danny. "Gracie" he whispers and then she flings into his arm giving him the biggest hug. She was still mad at him but for now it could wait, she needed her uncle Steve. Danny wraps his arms around the pair of them and they both comfort the distraught man. Danny thought that seeing Steve again would make everything make sense but being here made him more confused if anything.
Steve pulled back from the pair and wiped his eyes. "God i missed you two" he says looking at them. Danny nods. "We know, its good to see you too" Danny says. Steve nods as tears come to his eyes again.
"God Danno. I dont know what the hell im gonna do". Danny grabs Steves hand and pulls him over to some chairs that were sitting in a corner.
"How about we start from the beginning okay" Grace says as they sit and Steve sighs. He looks at Danny. The only thing he can focus on his Dannys thumb rubbing over the back of his hand, giving him comfort that he so badly needed to utter the next words.
"I have a daughter". The breathe is taken out of him, peices of the jigsaw came together. That's why they were in the NICU. Steve was a dad. Steve had his own kid.
"What do you mean you have a daughter... How" Grace starts and Steve just turns and looks at Danny.
"It's Catherine," he says and Danny frowns.
"Catherine. What do you mean Catherine, I didn't know you two still kept in touch." Steve lets out a sigh and looks between the two.
"We met on the plane the day that I left and we started seeing each other again. It was great for a while and then we started having some issues about where we were going with the relationship. She wanted to stay in California and I wanted to go back to Hawaii" Steve reveals and Danny can't help but feel happy. Steve wanted to come back. Steve turned with tears in his eyes.
"God Danno I wanted to come back so much. I had a ticket booked and all," Steve runs his hands over his face. "But then Catherine rang me, she was sobbing and she told me she was pregnant. And i just i couldn't leave, I just couldn't" Steve says putting his head in his hands and leaning into Danny who wrapped his arms around him. Grace places a hand on Steves back and rubs his back a little. Danny places a kiss to his hair.
"Hey, its okay. I understand" Danny tells him and Steve just shakes a little bit before moving his hands away from his face.
"I went back to help her, and she said that she didnt want us to get back together just because of the baby, so we decided that i would be best if we co-parented. Then she started getting really bad morning sickness couldnt keep anything down, not even water. The doctor said that it was HG, hyperemesis gravidarum. She was in the hospital for weeks getting hydrated to make sure she was putting on weight. And after a while it got better and she was able to go home. I thought that was the end of it, that she would be fine. But then she turned out to have pretty much everything bad that you could get with a pregnancy. Gestational diabetes, high blood pressure. God she just had everything," Steve was getting weepier by the second.
"And then she called me on night saying that she thinks that she was having contractions. She was 30 weeks. I ran over to her house and took her here. They put her in for an emergancy c-section. God i only got to see my daughter for a few seconds before she was whisked away" Steve cries and Danny looks at Grace and they both are scared to know what happened next. #
"And Catherine. How is Catherine" Grace asks him and Steve shakes his head crying.
"She's dead". Grace and Danny look at each other not knowing what to say. It had been a few years since they had seen Catherine. And even though she broke Steves heart a time or two, they still liked her and cared for her, so her death was a little hard to process.
"Steve im so sorry" Danny whispers and Steve nods.
"I know. I mean i know that we werent together anymore but i still loved her. I mean it all just happened so fast".
"What happened" Grace asked, her hand still on Steve.
"Um... Doctors said that it was an accumilation of things. But that she had a heart attack and because of all of the stress that had been on her body the past few months it just wasnt strong enough". Danny sighs.
"Hows the baby doing. You said Catherine was 30 weeks".
"The baby..." Steve smiles and looks up at Danny.
"God she is perfect. Early but perfect," Danny cant help but smile. He was happy for Steve, he remembered the day that Grace was born and it was the happiest day of his life.
"She has got a long road ahead of her though. She still isnt fully developed and is going to be in the hospital for a few months but the doctor said that she is a fighter". Danny laughs.
"Trust me. With your and Catherines genes, wouldnt doubt it". Steve smiles. For the first time that day he actually felt some what happy. Like there was hope.
"Do you want to meet her" Steve asks them and both of them grin.
"We would love too man. But isnt there a rule on how many of us can be in there". Steve nods.
"Yeah i can have one other person come in with me so" he looks between the two of them. Danny looks at Grace and nods.
"You go first".
"Really," Grace asked, shocked that Danny didnt want to meet the baby before anyone else. Danny nods and takes out his phone.
"Yeah, i have a few people to update." Grace nods and looks at Steve.
"Lets go" she says standing up and taking Steves arm. The two walk through the door and for the first time that day Danny had time to himself. Time to let himself process what was happening. God Tani and Junior were going to be shocked. Everyone back in Hawaii was. But the one thing he did know was the he was going to be there for Steve.

Chapter 23: The Smell of Forbidden Fruit
London, England. 4:30 pm
The stately home of Mr. Alexander Kerr was just outside the greater city, close enough to allow for daytrips, yet large enough to warrant a stable. Rarely seen in public, Mr. Kerr had not been home for these past three months, double the time it took to complete an inspection of twelve lycan outposts.
In truth, Mr. Kerr could have returned in one month, but he had chosen instead to spend two extra months hiding in hotels, comfortable with the notion that every night on the mainland was another night when he did not have to discuss ballet with Jacqueline.
He had been thinking about going south when Goar sent him word of some book of unspeakable value in Tanis' possession. Unspeakable value, indeed. It was supposed to be a three-day detour ending with a book, but he had ended up with a woman instead.
A troublesome one at that.
Prelude: An Underworld Fanfiction.
