{Father's Day 2014} Planning

Carys Chase

June 13 

*With fathers day fast approaching, I sit in the library, catalogs in front of me note pad in one hand pen in the other as I try to figure out what to get my dad. I can't do a tie, that's stupid. He doesn't eat and he owns an armory..frustrated I all but throw my pen across the room when Aric shows up.* Please, Bub. Tell me you have SOME idea of what to get dad.

  Aric Chase *He shakes his head*No, nothing. it was so much easier when Mum bought the presents. I just can't think of anything. Maybe the others have some ideas. Let's go find Rafe, maybe he can help.*the two of them head out to find Rafe. *

  Rafe Malebranche *Walking down the hallway, deep in thought, I nearly walked right into Carys. If it hadn't been for Aric, I probably would have run her over.* Damn.... sorry 'bout that Cuz. You alright? *I felt a bit better seeing her nod, and I shook my head* I was just thinking about Father's Day.... I don't know about Stirling, but my dad already has everything!!!

  Dare Thorne *Coming out of my room, I see Rafe, Aric, and Carys.* Where's the party, guys? What's up? I was just racking my brain about what to get dad. What are you guys doing for your dads?

  Mira Nicholas-Archer *Coming up from the training room, I spot the twins, Dare and Rafe standing around in the hallway* What are you slackers doing? *hoisting my bag further up my shoulder as I listen to their quandary* You guys haven't bought father's day gifts yet? *shaking my head* Fail, guys...fail.

  Dare Thorne *nods* I know what you mean Rafe. When we were little, we could make a card with paper and crayons and draw a stick figure picture, and it was the best present in the world. We didn't know how good we had it. You know, though - I think those gifts meant the most to Dad.

  Mira Nicholas-Archer *Shaking my head slowly, my lips turn up in a small smile* I don't think you can copy me...I got my dad's gift special ordered through Gid months ago. You know how much he loves things that go boom. Well, lets just say this summer will be epic. *I grin and set my bag at my feet* They do mean the most, why won't you guys just make them something?

  Carys Chase *Shaking my head* I'll figure something out for us Bub. Dad hosestly likes anything we give him. *Sighs* I remember all the misspelled cards and homemade gifts we made him. I do miss that.

  Aric Chase Remember that year we made those awful macaroni necklaces for him Carys?*he laughs, remembering Dad hanging them in a place of honor on the mantle.* He kept those stupid things for years!

  Rafe Malebranche *chuckles* Hell..... my dad still has that drawing I made for him when I was five!!! I even think he had it framed! *I shook my head* It wasn't anything more than a bunch of stick figures, with swirls on them for glyphs. I still can't believe he kept it after all these years.

  Dare Thorne *laughs* Remember when Mira sat us all down and we made pictures with macaroni, glitter and glue? We were sticky from stem to stern, and the original sparkly vampires - long before those other ones. *laughs* Dad loved it. *sighs* It's going to be difficult. What do you give the Leader of the Breed? He has everything, and isn't interested in a personal size atom bomb like Uncle Niko. The way things have been going lately, probably what Dad would like most would be some alone time with Mom. *grins*

  Mira Nicholas-Archer See, you guys are full of ideas. *smirking* Think of how good you would be at making macaroni art now that you aren't 3 years old! I certainly wouldn't have to scrub glue off your little fingers this time. *laughs* I think you guys will be fine, you know your dads better than anyone and they will love anything you give them. *picking up my back and flinging it over my shoulder.* Now, I do believe I have a mate waiting for me... *winking, I continue down the hallway toward Kellan*
