Isabel smiled and breathed a mental sigh of relief as some of the pressure of cooking was lifted off her shoulders "Thank you." she said quietly as she took the pan off the stove "Krieger can you!"
"On it!" he yelled walking in and taking the pot to the table to set it down to the increasing number of dishes.
"Thank you." she said with a smile. "So Izzy have you seen John yet?" she asked wiping her hands on her apron.

Amaterasu smiled, "I saw him. He'll be here soon. He got caught up in things." she spoke in an elegant manner, before forgetting that she hasn't introduced herself, "Oh. Where are my manners. My name is Amaterasu, Oracle of the Goddesses." she said smiling before giving a grand bow, "At your service" she spoke before looking at the others, and nodding before Nadya spoke,
"Why are there so many people here...?" she asked with a dazed tone as she wandered aimlessly.

"Oh what sort of things?" Isabel asked inhaling the scent of the tea that her dear friend was brewing. "Ysabel that smells absolutely wonderful. I simply must have that recipe!" She said opening the oven to check on the baking apple pie.
"Attlas how are the babies doing?" Lydia asked her husband "Ya know the newborns?" She said figuring he forgot about them.
Zelda chuckled "It's a home coming. It's when all of your family and friends come by and catch up on the good old times." Zelda explained.

No, she hadn't seen John, and the Oracle of the Goddesses, this Amateratsu, seemed quite interesting. She was very talented to be able to discern the whereabouts of John. Ysabel made a note to converse more with her later. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Amateratsu." Politeness would be fine for any and all. She was somewhat nervous, but that was being cleverly help back by the smell of the tea she was working on. Tea was good for more than just drinking.
"It's all in the technique," Izzy grinned and put the finishing touches on, making a nice darker colored tea. "And, I suppose, those were some quality leaves stored away in your cupboard." The smell of apple pie wafted out from the oven, bringing pleasure to Izzy's sense of smell. The sounds of various people were quite comforting, and everything seemed to be going well.

Dorien smiled and hugged Zelda. He tried calming his racing heart, but he was failing. Miserably. "So, Zelda... H-How's things been going?" He started, pathetically. Good job there, you imbecile. You just saw her yesterday. What could have possibly happened in that amount of time that could be worth talking about? He laughed nervously and looked around. "So um... Where's your father?" He shuddered mentally at the conversation that was bound to happen with the other man.

Zelda chuckled "Right over there!" she said pointing to the man sitting at the table. "Why don't you talk to him a bit? I have to go and change." Zelda said smiling as she walked up to her room.
John smiled and opened the door slowly. He had a fair amount of facial hair and was tanned from all the time in the sun. "Hello!" He said walking in the house.
"Hey son!" Krieger said smiling.
"JOHN!" Isabel said trowing her rag to the side and running over to her son. She embraced him as if she hadn't seen him in eons and began to weep tears of joy "Y-You made it!"
"Of course mom." He said hugging her back "I wouldn't miss this for the world."

The heartfelt moment shared between mother and son was something Ysabel was envious of. It was a beautiful reunion, one the likes of which had never before been witnessed by Izzy. She smiled gracefully, a true, heartfelt and joyous smile. The two were adorable, and Izzy could only hope to have a family like Isabel's someday. The moment being as tender as it was, Ysabel was completely distracted and accidentally leaned back a little too far, burning her hand on the tea she was crafting. Without making a noise, she shook her fingers that were quickly turning red and stuffed the injured hand behind her back. She could make some salve later.

Isabel refused to let go of her son for even a second. She stepped back and clasped his hands in hers and smiled "John there is a wonderful woman who has been wanting to meet you!" She said nodding to Izzy.
"Hello!" John said nodding his head at her. "I'm john, Isabel's son but I'm sure you knew that." he explained politely as he walked over "It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Say Dorien come here!" Krieger said with a smile. "I need to talk to you!"

Dorien gulped and mentally prepared himself for the upcoming chat. Well, tried to at least. His heart was thumping in his ears as he strode over to Krieger, a bit wobbly in the knees. Get a grip. The plan is simple, really. All you have to do is make small talk with him for a bit before casually asking his blessing to marry his daughter.... That he seems to be highly protective of... Yeah, I can do this... heh...
"H-Hello, sir... It's been a while, hasn't it?"

Oh, lovely. Just lovely! After being so careless and actually burning her hand, which was now being completely ignored, Izzy had failed to mentally prepare herself for how utterly attractive John actually was. Sure, he wasn't how she had originally pictured him, what with the furry face and all, but there was something that really peaked her interest.
Okay, moron. Get it together. "Likewise." Ysabel smiled politely and offhandedly turned off the heat to the tea. "I've heard a lot about you." Well, slightly awkward, but nothing as bad as it could have been nevertheless.

Krieger smiled and offered Dorien a beer "It has been. So how are things between you and Zellie going?" He asked with a smile "all I hear is good things about you from her. She really loves you!" he said taking a sip from his drink.
John chuckled. Wow she was pretty and by the gods he had a hard time thinking straight. "Oh what have you heard about me?" He asked with a smile. he took a few steps closer and chuckled nervously "good things I hope!Say that tea smells delicious! Did you make it yourself?"

"I.... I WANT TO MARRY YOUR DAUGHTER!!!!" Dorien slapped his hands over his mouth, horrified at the words that had just slipped out of it. His eyes widened and he glanced around quickly to see if anyone else had heard his little outburst. Well played, Dorien, well played. So much for being subtle and easing into the topic. He blushed profusely as he stared at the ground and refused to look up to Krieger. This was NOT going as he had originally planned...

"Yes, good things by far." Ysabel was not one to judge by hearsay alone, however. She took it upon herself to get to know someone before she let another dictate people she associated herself with. "I did make it myself, with some of your mother's tea leaves. They were of excellent quality. Would you like to try some?" This was off to a good start. She hadn't stuttered or embarrassed herself yet, though it was bound to happen eventually. The ends of her fingers were throbbing, but it wasn't anything she wasn't prepared to handle. It was a minor burn and the pain would subside momentarily. It was a good thing John was here to distract her from the pain; she was too self conscious to even remember the injury.

Krieger was obviously taken back "Eh- eh what?" he asked looking at his beer. No he wasn't drugged but he still felt like he was. "I um well..." He paused and shook his head "Wow this was sudden "Do you have the ring?"
John nodded and poured himself a cup. He took a sip and gasped in surprised "This is amazing! You're great at this!" He said placing a hand on her shoulder to thank her. "I wouldn't be surprised if you make a great mother! Sorry if this sounds a bit rude but are you currently dating anyone?" He asked nervously.

Wait a moment... did he like tea? Her tea? Simply amazing. This encounter was proving to be quite delightful. A faint blush crossed across her cheeks, accompanied by a smile. The mother comment only made her cheeks turn redder, and on top of that, the flat out question as to whether or not she was currently dating anyone? Ysabel didn't even know what to say. "Well, no, I'm not," Izzy stammered, forcing her mouth to make words. She hated being so affected by another person, but it wasn't her fault this man was standing her and being extremely forward. She kind of liked it.
