&Family"Families are like branches on a tree, we grow in different directions yet our roots remain as one." "Tío Benji! Tío Benji!" The high-pitched shrieks of his niece and nephew filled the air as Benji stepped through the door of his parents' home in San Diego. Before he could even get his bearings, two pint-sized tornadoes of energy came barreling toward him. "Hey amigos!" Benji scooped up six-year-old Liam and four-year-old Elena in his arms, grunts of exertion mixing with their peals of delighted laughter. "Getting too big for these famous Tío Benji bear hugs!" "We missed you!" Liam beamed up at his favorite uncle with an adoring gap-toothed grin. "Did you bring us souvenirs?" Ever the precocious one, Elena wasted no time in directing her big brown eyes at Benji with expectant hope. Chuckling, Benji exchanged an amused look with his older brother Mateo, who just shook his head with a resigned smile. "You're too much, ya little hustler," Benji teased Elena, ruffling her dark curls. "Benjamín! Querído, it's so good to have you home." His mother Isabela emerged from the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron as she pulled him into one of her warm, enveloping hugs. Breathing in the comforting scent of her perfume, Benji felt the stresses of his high-pressure job in L.A. begin to dissipate. "Gracias mamá. You know I can never stay away too long." "Your tía is almost done with the tamales," his mother said, waving a hand toward the kitchen. "Why don't you go help set the table for abuelita?" "On it!" Benji called over his shoulder as he carried his niece and nephew into the dining room, their delighted shrieks echoing behind him. No matter how far he roamed, these familiar sights, sounds and smells of home would forever ground him in his family's roots. Their love and laughter was his deepest anchor, the thing that untethered him from worries and struggles. And that was priceless.   template credit.   

Demigods󠀠While many of the Gods had legitimate children, full-blooded Gods, and Goddesses, many more had bastard children, mostly with mortal women. These children were born powerful, not as powerful as if they were full-blooded but still with abilities far beyond that of any mortal or mortal magic wielder. These children were considered demigods. And not cast out like most bastards. Many Gods claimed their children early on in their life, one had raised his child since her birth, Hades.Yes, even Hades had a child. His only child given no respectable Goddess would ever consider procreating with the shunned and disgraced God of the Underworld. His daughter's name was Selena. She was the result of a brief love affair with a mortal woman, a witch. She was known among the mortals as the Wicked Witch. So it was easy to say that Selena hardly came from the best of parents. For this reason, she too was somewhat shunned by the other Gods and Goddesses.Aphrodite however took pity on Selena. She had met her on a few occasions as a child, Selena and one of Aphrodite's own children Eros had formed quite a close bond, which in turn brought both she and him to the Underworld more and more to visit with Selena who proved to be quite an exceptional girl as she grew.Visits to the Underworld did take their toll on Aphrodite though, it was a very dark place. So after some negotiations, Aphrodite had received permission to bring Selena from the Underworld to the land of the living. There she could be introduced to others like her, cousins. She could begin to form connections more than just with her father. While Hades did genuinely care for his daughter, and tried his best. He was hardly the best influence.Now Aphrodite had received permission from the other Gods to allow Hades' child to mingle with their own she hadn't exactly asked Hades permission to take his daughter from the Underworld to the land of the living. She thought she'd have Selena back before she was truly missed so why ask? Why risk being shot down and told no? This would prove to be a mistake. Hades kept a very close eye on his daughter, every moment of every day.On this day Selena was with some of her female cousins, demigoddesses like herself. Aphrodite had gathered them all to a lavish castle surrounded by beautiful gardens. There they were dressed properly and allowed to play with one another and explore the large castle, something most of them were not accustomed to. Happily, Selena ran through the halls of the castle with her newfound playmates.It was all so happy, so light-hearted. Something Selena rarely experienced given the dark place she resided with her father. Giggling, twirling, and rushing through the halls all the girls, Selena included, stopped when someone appeared before them in a cloud of blue smoke. There stood Hades, his head ablaze with fire, his normal when truly angry.All the girls screamed and ran away, Selena turned to watch them, calling out to them. "Wait! It's just.." she turned to look back to Hades. "My dad." She said sounding very unpleased to see him. Without words, Selena knew her time here was over. That Hades was here to bring her back to the Underworld. All the pleading and reasoning with Aphrodite would not save her from the fate of returning back with her father.󠀠 template credit.

Tatum was the type to always love drowning herself into yoga. It was a lot better than the alternative that she had done for many years. After her brother's death it wasn't easy for her, and she resulted in finding the comfort in a few pills. This was causing such a downward spiral for her until she started to see a therapist. The suggestions usually had been a flop all but one. That had been channeling her sadness and anger into a workout of some form. She found this in YOGA. It was not even a hesitation for her when she was just starting her new career at Rosewood & Co. She was always the type to over work herself a trait she had gotten from her father. It was also something she loved and hated all the same. However, it was a big move to make but Tatum had purchased a small building a few blocks from her family's firm. This was her safe space. Her one place where she can go and not have to worry. She was able to be free so to speak and it made her feel at home. Things haven't always been easy for her and with her career she was often on edge. It didn't help that she was only filling her older brothers' shoes. She found solace in her little studio. She had it decked out in all of her favorite things that opened her mind to be clearer. She had a lot of nature paintings and some she had done herself, another little hobby of hers. Sometimes you would even find her staying the night there. She had a nice little office and room off to the side of the room she set up for yoga. Whenever she was here, she felt at her safest. A place to unwind and just really connect with herself through some intense yoga and meditation.

Had to use the corny pun, sorry not sorry.Cassandra is a mutated human with animal genes spliced into her DNA; chiefly among them is the tiger and cephalopod.  This DNA grants her characteristic traits of the animals, while also having some of their drawbacks and behavioral traits.Cassandra has the strength and agility of a tiger, along with keen hearing, retractable claws, and enhanced eyesight. Unfortunately, she also inherited the fur and patterns of the tiger, making her stand out from other humans.The cephalopod attribute grants Cass limited shapeshifting ability, mainly the change in her skin pigmentation and body shape.  This does not allow her to change bulk or size, merely altering her appearance to better blend in with society.  With enough focus, she can "look normal", but it takes considerable concentration and effort on her part.  Breaking her focus, and she will resume her new 'natural' state.TBC...

She was a Lady-In-Waiting to a noble woman named Katia. Katia was engaged to a Prince who didn't love her. Instead he was in love with Tralloni. Tralloni tried to stop the advances, but in the end she submitted to him. Eventually, Katia found out about the affair and cursed Tralloni to be a were-dog and to be at her beck and call. Over the next ten years, Tralloni would serve her friend and her Prince, until the Prince and her friend died of a wound to the heart by a guard as they slept. Tralloni was blamed for it and was on the run now. She has been running over 1,0000 centuries, from hunters traveling the world to be one step ahead of them. In the 21st century now, she has come to America travelling around. Along the way she will meet all sorts of people, even turn some in the process.S​​he is known as the Mother of Weredogs and the First Immortal Cynanatrope.  Queen of the Cynan Shifters. ​​   ✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤  Personality:Tralloni is a meek and silent girl, who once people hear her, they listen. She had a soft voice though when she has to be in authority, she struggles to get her voice heard. She however may be small voiced but when it come defending what is hers, she will be a force to recon with. She will stand her ground when it comes to protecting those she cares about.     ✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤ Powers & Abilities: Weredogs, also known as cynanthropes, are a lesser-known type of therianthrope. They are often confused with werewolves by the common folk. As their name suggests, weredogs take on the form of dogs or dog-like creatures, ranging from small and scrappy to massive and imposing, depending on the type of weredog by which they were infected.   In cynanthropes of the second generation onwards, this is manifested by transforming into the same type as their ancestor. The only exception is when both parents are weredogs of different types. In this case, the traits of both parents mix, creating a new type of cynanthrope.​​​​ Abilities   Weredogs, like other theriantropes possess enhanced senses, speed, agility, and strength in their half - animal or full animal form, They also have the ability to communicate telepathically with other canines and possess a natural affinity for them.   Like other with similar conditions, their transformation is usually triggered by the full moon, but if they are second-generation weredogs or beyond, they can also change at will.   Vulnerabilities   Weredogs are vulnerable to silver, just like werewolves and other theriantropes. But unlike, werepigs for example, they are vulnerable to standard anti-lycanthrope measures, such as wolfsbane. In addition, their animal instincts and heightened senses can sometimes cause them to be overwhelmed by stimuli, leading to sensory overload or distraction. They may also struggle with controlling their animal impulses and may act aggressively towards perceived threats or targets.   Behavior   Weredogs, unlike werewolves who are more solitary, are known for their loyalty and pack mentality. They tend to form close bonds with other weredogs and can be fiercely protective of their pack members, often showing great courage and selflessness in defense of their kin.   However, weredogs may also have a tendency towards dominance struggles within their pack, which can sometimes lead to conflicts. This is especially true when two or more weredogs of the same sex and similar age are part of the same pack. Such struggles can be intense and even violent, as each member vies for dominance and the right to lead the pack.   Transmission of the Disease: The exact method of transmission of the weredog condition is similar to other forms of therianthropy. In most cases, a person becomes infected after being bitten or scratched by a weredog in its half-animal or full-animal form. The saliva and blood of a weredog can carry the disease and can cause the victim to develop the condition over time. The condition can also be passed down from parent to child. What is not known with certainty is how the condition is transmitted as a "curse". It is speculated that it is not a "curse" as such, but rather if a dog dies in a Place of Power and its owner comes to mourn it and learn about it nearby, the magic in the environment can cause them to acquire the condition of a weredog, adopting the canine aspect of their deceased dog when transformed into a full animal. However, this is only a legend, and nothing has been proven.   The First Weredog:Tralloni Antonsdóttir, is the First Weredog in the world. Tralloni was born in the 1st Century B.C.E. (Nordic: Age Unknown/2,000+), Turned, 1st Century B.C. (Through the Cynanatrope Curse).Addictions:Anise (or aniseed), also known as “dog nip,” and when given in moderation, it is a stimulus drug, like catnip, to make a dog relaxed, calm and happy. ✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤✤  

drabble ft. ❝beauti𝖋ul delirium. & 🍭inscrutable.   “YOU CAN'T LET GO OF ME EVEN NOW, CAN YOU?” His mother’s drawl crooned over the cacophony of voices ringing in his head. She towered over him, a fanged demon, as last he saw her—before the very end. He felt so small again. Just as he had when he was William. Meek, forgettable… unlovable…              beneath her.“I was trying to save you…” Spike whispered. “You’re thankless, always thankless.”“If you had any gumption, you would have been waiting with bated breath to see me whither and die, boy!”“I’m not a boy!” A sharp burst of anger, his fist beat a crack into the basement wall.“And… not… yet a man…”  Drusilla’s dreamy tone echoed through the room. “Always searching for a Mummy… a skirt to cower under…” she tilted her head. “A bosom to suckle.”“I couldn’t leave her…”“If you were half a man, you would have left!” His mother screamed. “What man wastes his life away scribbling poems and caring after a withering old lady? They all laughed at you. They still laugh.”“I killed them all, tore them limb from limb.” Spike uttered, rocking forward on his tailbone.“Painted the roses red… planted a garden for your mother in bloodied soil.” Drusilla sang. “Watered the thirsty little flowers with their blood.”“Never done anything for yourself, have you?” said his mother. “You let everyone walk all over you. Wasted all your time on reasoning and reckoning, but it couldn’t fix what was wrong, could it? The sick little weakness…”“I changed. Gone around the bend, yes, gone around the bend, but I got stronger.”“And now you’re weak again,” said Buffy.  “Got a soul like it makes any difference to me. You’ll never be the man I need.”“You should have killed her when you had the chance,” said Drusilla. “Wrung her pretty little neck. But you never could make Mummy happy, could you?”“No, could never make anyone happy. No one's happy, only hurt.”

----Trigger Warnings----Tauriel remembers every detail of that fatal night. A reverent that curled around her mind in her waking hours or sleep, much like the spirited mist that coiled around the surrounding mountains. A pale noose that sometimes suffocated her, taking her every breath and haunted her mind.When the howling of Rhîw splintered between thin blackened trendies hanging from the tree's hypnotized in its cold embrace. It awakened her from her slumber right before the Orcs entered her village, as if the Valar themselves were trying to warn them all before the pillaging began. The swaying of the pendulum in the next room clicked from left to right as swiftly and clear as Quell. The breeze right before the very first scream pierced the air like the tip of a dagger and a deep, resounding thud as the springs bounced off the wooden floor, awakening her parents in the next room.A heavy silence filled the air before her, nadar's voice screamed out for Tauriel to hide, as he had taught her. She slipped swiftly out of the warmth of her covers for the very last time and under the wooden planks under the privacy of her bed. It was a hidden cubby he made for her, and her naneth if trouble every brewed while he was away. He kept it stocked with a week of supplies and weapons in case they needed to stay for more than a day. She couldn't stop shivering as she backed her small frame into the stone-cornered wall and slipped down, holding her trembling knees against her chest as she watched the shadows between the floor boards. And suddenly, Tauriel covered her ears at once when she heard her naneth's gurgling cries and nadar's final roar before a swift steel blade plummeted into his chest. She cannot recall how long she stayed under the floorboards. Tauriel felt as frozen as a gentle leaf in the middle of a catastrophic Rhiw storm. But the scent of rotten eggs, charred flesh, and iron filtered heavily into the air and reminded her she was still alive as cold, sticky droplets of life spilled between the wooden floor.It must have been a few days that passed, and the last dying cries, moans faded away like the torn pages of an old book her nadar would sometimes use when he couldn't find a dried twig to light their fireplace in the colder months. Her naneth would always scoff at him for doing so, lecturing him on the time it took to make that book, and what if that was the last in existence? The words he just burned would be forever lost, she would scoff. Her Nadar would settle back into his old creaky rocking chair with a wooden pipe between his smirking lips and motion for Tauriel to join him on his lap as he snuggled her in his arms listening to his wife lecture him further. “Aye, its the past woman! And the best stories are always held in our minds and hearts.'"They are passed down from one generation to the next. Not some flattened words scribbled a bout with no feeling at all! I'm sure whatever story that was written in that book is still with the loved ones he had left," he said and began to rock softly with her in his arms in his chair. "Plus you fancy freezing to death? Miss I am cold! I am cold!" He chuckled heartly and kissed the top of Tauriel's fiery locks." I'll never know where you got this colour from lass! But I believe its a reflection of your soul." Her emerald eyes welled in tears again as she sniffled and rubbed her tiny nose knowing she would never have another memory of them again.Lost in her thoughts, she barely registered the creaking of the floor, shifting of light as King Thranduil's men found her there. She was catatonic, and they must have called her a million times before one decided to jump down and a loom of dust from the dirt beneath his feet splattered around, awakening her from her dreams as she looked up towards him. "Are you a Maia?" her raspy, brittle voice from lack of fluids asked in a whispered breath. "No, I am not Henig. Odulen an edraith anlen. We come to take you to the palace where you can recover, and we will find you a new home in the inner sanctuary of the Village." He spoke gently and quickly scooped her up, and she didn't realize how weak she actually felt as she slumped into his chest as he crawled out of her family's secret dwelling, she would see her parents again.Their lifeless bodies lay unnaturally on the floor. The skin was as pale as the moon and hung barely on their bones. Their eyes were still open wide but soulless, and their mouths were agape from their silent screams. In that split second Tauriel went from having no strength at all to kicking and fighting away from the gentle soldier that held her and sunk by her naneth's body. And even though there was pools of blood she crawled into her frame like a baby and laced her small arms over her naneth's lifeless heart. "Wake up Nana! Oh wake up! Please! I do not want to leave here I want to stay with you or come back and take me too! Take me too!!!" She sobbed and squinted her eyes tight and perched her lips as her breathing hitched. "You promised you would never leave me! You promised! Come back! Come back!!!” Her voice hoarse, her body feeling the weight of every tears ahs she pounded her tiny fist into her nana's chest before sinking completely into her motionless arms and tried to lace them around her slender shoulders. At first Thranduil's men just stood frozen. Their eyes peeled at the little girl, and they occasionally glanced at the other unsure what to do. But they knew it was only a matter of time before trouble would befall again and they needed to gather the survivors and the dead too. The same soldier who first held her in his arms tired to at first encourage her gently into his arms. But Tauriel resisted and screamed, spatting in his face and clung to her naneth as another soldier had to assist, even though she was just a little lass. "No! Noooooo!!!," Tauriel screamed before finally sinking into his chest again and she felt even more tired than she did before as the world around her muted into nothingness. "We will give them proper burial and you could visit them whenever you wish," he tried to reassure her. But his words felt as lifeless at that moment as her once vibrant village as he carried her away, and that was all she could remember, as she must have fainted in his arms, wanting to dream it all away.When Tauriel awakened again, her old painted walls were replaced by fine, smooth marble, tapestries, and a heady scent of lavender's and myrrh, and the sound of fresh springs spilling over perfectly shaped rocks could be heard in the distance. Skyward lights from the morning star splintered purposefully through an arrangement of mirrors perfectly orchestrated, filling the area beneath, and even the tiny dusting sparkled heavenly in the room, making Tauriel feel as if she were in a dream. But as a shadow blocked out the light that temporarily warmed her skin, meaning to bring her comfort, but instead reminded her of why she was there. It was the voice of the soldier who must have brought her there.The sacred healing springs in Thranduil's palace, and as he spoke with words meant to bring her solace, all she could see and think of was her parents spread across the floor in her childhood home. Tauriel would not even look at him or cast a single gaze his way. It was too painful and too much for her to bear, and she no longer shook in fear but with the thought of never allowing another village to suffer as she just did. Her emerald eyes fixed on the glint of two swords that hung on the wall in the distance, and she drew in a breath, feeling as if it was the first one she ever took in her entire young life, and she swallowed back the last bit of sorrow and spoke in a pristine, clear voice to the soldier. "Teach me. Teach me all you know, so I can fight alongside you one day. I may be young, barely a knee, but my nadar has been training me since the time I began to walk. I will not let your efforts go to waste.”The little girl she once was no longer what laid on that bed now. She stayed with her parents in her childhood home and was replaced by a spirit that would revenge her parents deaths and not allow another family, nor village to be torn apart again. With a look of certainly unwavering resolve upon her face, Tauriel let the last tear she would cry for that day slip past the curve of her cherub face. Her emerald eyes now fixated upon his dark azure's in the healing room, and she spoke once again. But her voice was strong, almost fierce, and he could tell she would not take no for an answer. "Teach me everything you know, and I will bring you every head of an Orc I come across. I assure you of this." He smoothed his large hand over her own and threaded his fingers with hers as he nodded slowly and squeezed it tight, seeing the determination in her eyes and a soul of a fearless warrior in her eyes. "I will teach you all I know and guide you in the best way I can. You have my word. My promise young henig as long as you promise to not waste the life you still have and seek beauty and be fearless in love again."Tauriel could not speak as he spoke kindly to her and with such care, reminding her of her nadar as tears welled in her eyes, so she simply nodded in agreement and squeezed his hand. 

  MENTAL HeALTH.   May prompt.   Isolation and Avoidance. Darcy tends to isolate herself and avoid getting too close or opening up to others. She's deeply distrustful of letting people into her paranormal world, fearing they'll think she's delusional. Darcy brushes off relationships and social connections that could potentially provide emotional support systems.  Substance Abuse. Turning to alcohol, cigarettes, and other substances is one of Darcy's main coping mechanisms. She self-medicates heavily with vices and indulgences as a way to blur out the psychological strain she endures from being a medium. Frequent benders and bouts of inebriation are her escape hatches.  Thrill-Seeking Behavior. When substances aren't enough of a distraction, Darcy chases an adrenaline high through daredevil activities and reckless risks. Putting herself in harm's way through things like street racing, illicit substance abuse, or throwing herself into paranormal hotspots is paradoxically a way for her to feel "normal."  Avoidant Behaviors. Darcy employs a variety of avoidant behaviors to sidestep dealing with her mental health issues head-on. She'll immerse herself in work at the bookstore for weeks at a stretch. She keeps obsessively busy or hits the road without notice torun from her problems. Compartmentalization and blocking out her troubles is a pattern.Lack of Healthy Coping Skills. For all her knowledge of the metaphysical, Darcy seems to lack any effective healthy coping skills or outlets. She doesn't exercise, journal, seek therapy, or pursue creative outlets. Her self-care abilities are limited, leaving her to cycle through the same destructive behaviors.Emotional Repression. At her core, Darcy represses, bottles up, and internalizes the heavy emotional and psychological toll of her abilities as a medium. Rather than process her traumatic experiences, she lashes out, builds up walls, and forces the stress down through vices. Her emotions remain unresolved.Darcy's mental health is like an open wound that she neglects to treat, allowing it to fester and become more infected over time through unhealthy, avoidant behaviors. Her self-destructive coping mechanisms may temporarily numb the pain, but provide no lasting solution for healing her tormented psyche.   Darcy E.

TTaken from Miss Christine Daae's stream and furthered for the two of ushttps://www.roleplayer.me/599023Christine Opening--Autumn in Paris, her adopted homeland.... her favorite time of year. The streets bustling with activity near the opera, and more often than not, rain with notes of floral could be smelt on the breeze. Christine was eager for the falling temperatures, knowing that winter was peeking around the corner.Katherine---As Katherine sees her old long time friend, a smile splays across the dark hair beauty's lips, and she joins her as they stroll the cobblestone streets of Le Paris softly giggling, taking in all the sights and sounds. Mingling, clattering leaves rustling in a melodic tune as they pirouette gracefully on a kissed autumn breeze. Such as the many ballerinas of the grand Opera under Madame's guiding hand, making sure they keep to every carefully placed step.An enchanting dance, mesmerizing and surreal as they share a cup of hot chocolate watching nature's beautiful showing. Autumn in Le Paris not comparison to any other in all the lands holding the dark magics,  music in one's soul.Miss Daae was among one of her oldest and dearest friends that she had known in other lifetimes, and she swears in other skins, and when they encountered the other again it was as if not even a single day had passed between the years they had seen the other.Katherine was pleased that Christine was now the prized jewel of the Palais Garnier. She remembered many a summer's day when Katherine spent some time in Uppsala seemingly like eons ago, that it was Christine who welcomed the young maiden to her home when she found her wandering aimlessly, lost much confused and without knowing a single soul. She had just freshly been turned into a creature she rather not think of now, given her soul was returned more than a year ago. It was Christine's kindness, her heart, that helped Katherine remember who she was and not the monster she felt she became. Now married and a mortal once again, the two girls reunited and spent most of their evenings at the other's homes. Warm, lost memories, silly moments they recalled and speaking of the great loves they now held in their arms. Many a day they would visit a local bakery when Erik was away on business and Christine was not practicing her cords.

All trying to distract themselves from the court date. It had taken longer than the week he was there to get the date set. But he had no issue jumping between New York and Charlotte. He had no choice, he was attending that hearing to gain custody of his daughter. His lawyer able to get photos of her for him to look at. So he could just see her, the actual encounter he had when he first saw the girl was unpleasant and his focus was on his ex, the woman who put him in this situation. But it was nice to see the images of Kira. He was warned that usually the father getting full custody was an uphill battle, but he hopefully had a good case to win. He even had his home in Charlotte inspected by child services to get a stamp of approval that the environment the girl would be moving to was safe. He had a clean record, his income was stable and was well off to provide for the child.But... This was still nerve wracking. He sat in that court room, lawyer at his side and father along with the rest of his family near by. He couldn't see her, but he could feel that woman's presence. Could hear her complaining. The only time she'd likely ever be permitted to be in his presence. Too many law enforcement officials for her to act out. But he quietly chewed his lip, curious to where his daughter actually was. "Where is Kira..?" He whispered to his lawyer softly. And was assured she was safe. She was in a daycare playing with other children. Which was nice to hear. She wasn't in the hands of that insane family. The hearing itself was stressful. The questioning, he felt like he was being verbally attacked. But it didn't last long before he got to sit back in his original seat as the trial continued. Once it was said and done. He had to anxiously wait for the verdict. And it was a long wait, like it was a century. He had his parents talking to him to relax him. He barely knew this little girl but he was already willing to fight tooth and nail for her. He felt for her, she was nearly four... She was born in a prison, nearly lived in the streets. The family could barely afford to care for themselves. Let alone Kira. He didn't want child support. He could care less, he just wanted Kira and no contact with her mother. Once the judge had returned, he was granted the custody and he felt like he could finally breathe. Like he gasped for air as soon as it was announced. He didn't even hear the upset snaps from the other side of the room. He felt a bubble of excitement, he had spent the week before, even though he didn't know he'd win, setting up that child a room. Making sure everything was ready for her, and if he didn't win? Well... He one day wanted to marry and have his own family so it was just a head start?He ended up being told to wait at his parents and child services would bring her to him. And he was scared... scared that she didn't want anything to do with him. She didn't know him, she had seen him in person once, and it was not in the most ideal of situations. But the lawyer assured him that his ex was sickly obsessed with him and that alone might help him. The girl may have grown up looking at photos of him on the internet, watching videos of him hearing him. She may have been told her whole little life that he was her daddy. So maybe it wouldn't be as off putting for her. The wait again was unnearving. To officially meet his child, how was he going to tell her that her mommy wasn't coming with them if she was curious. Hopefully that wasn't something he had to address with a toddler right away. But once the knock came his hand snapped up, and he opened the door and saw the little girl in the arms of one of the agents bringing her to him. She was put on the floor and he just dropped down to the floor, it didn't take too long for her just to go straight over hugging him. All a good sign, but they had a long ways to go in their little journey together.  ✖
