Home Again, Home Again

Characters: Seth, Astarte, Meri, and Tyler
Date/Time: Early morning, Wednesday January 1, 2013
Location: Seth's Mansion
Rating: PG to maybe PG-13
Warnings: Language with familial adjustments.
Summary: New Years Day, Seth, Tara, and Meri are suddenly returned to New York.

They'd been in their room at the hotel, Seth keeping a close watch on his new minigun so Meri didn't mess with it, when suddenly they found themselves transported back to the front of Seth's mansion. And of course it's snowing.

"Freaking ubergods think they could at least port us inside," Seth grumbles. He takes his jacket off and wraps it around Tara and Meri. He gets out his cellphone. "Tyler? Yeah, we're back! Could you let us in? Okay, thanks."

He'll find his ex-wife and daughter already laying out some cold cuts from the fridge and checking the pantry. "Yep. You want anything, boss?"

"Um, sure I'll have some of that meat I guess." Seth walks over to Meri. "So how did you decide that you wanted to be the Goddess of Progress?"

"'Cause chaos is already handled," Meri says earnestly between bites.

Little smartass, he thought with wry humor.

"You saying that's what you would have picked first?"

"Well, it needs doing, Daddy. And progress comes next. I mean, you take a sij ... sit-u-a-tion, you add chaos or its just going to sit there being boring. You add new ideas -- thank you, Momma -- and then you move forward. So that's my turf."

Tara blinks. "Meri, have somebody been reading you Hegel and Marx?"

"No, Momma. But as soon as I figure out what those are, I'll read them myself. I'm getting really good. Four pages yesterday."

Her turf? No, do not even think of crying.

"Yes you are, honey," he says, giving her a kiss on top of the head.

"Thanks, Daddy. Daddy, do you mind not having your regular ears and teeth here, and Momma's horns?"

Seth looks over at Tara a second before responding. "Well, for a real long time I didn't look like myself. Yeah, I missed it at first, but then after awhile I got used to it. I admit it was nice being my old self again, but it's not so bad being human, it taught me a few things."

Tara looked at him and smiled, then at Meri. "Yeah, pretty much that, sweetie. And I enjoy getting the horns back sometimes, but you know, it's easier to appreciate them and enjoy them when I don't always have them."

"Makes sense, I guess," said Meri. "What is Tyler? Is he a small giant?"

[identity profile] chaos-embodied.insanejournal.com 2013-01-09 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
Seth had to bite his lip to keep from chuckling. "No, Meri. He's a very big human."

"Did I hear my name?" Tyler asks coming back in.

"Oh, hey Little Bit," Tyler greeted with a small smile.
