cake and ice cream

Bella finds Milliways next, too, on New Year's Day, and calls in Alice (he's not coming to Goldenworld even if they find a person who can take them there, but he might find someone interesting to talk to in the bar) and also Lazarus. She mentions the door to Libby, too, in case she and/or her wolf want to take an excursion and see if his friends and family back home can be visited.

"Of course." Addy grins brilliantly.

[nonbird]

He appeals to Bella with a look, since he can't independently teleport.

[self_composed]

"I'll need a more specific destination than 'Safesun'," says Bella.

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Will 'Marcus's house' do?" Addy asks.

[self_composed]

"Perhaps. Is anyone going to be alarmed if we teleport there? No? All right." Bella brings them all to the front door of Marcus's house.

[nonbird]

"Oh," says Lazarus. "That's new."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Ooooh," agrees Addy.

[nonbird]

"'Worshipful' is definitely a new quality."

[self_composed]

"Worshipful?" laughs Bella. "What's worshipping what?"

[nonbird]

"Their—that must be Marcus?—his power is worshipping his mate bond," he says. "It's kind of sweet."

[self_composed]

"That is sweet," Bella says.

The door opens. A hybrid girl with almost glowy golden skin and shiny black hair and huge brown eyes opens the door. "...Can I help you?" she asks.

[nonbird]

Lazarus looks helplessly at the other two.

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Hi, Cori," says Addy cheerfully. "This is a witchy person from another world and his Empress. I've borrowed him and we're staring at your dad through the walls. No hospitality is necessary."

"...Okay..." says 'Cori'.

[nonbird]

"Your dad's power is really cute," Lazarus volunteers.

[her_imperial_radiance]

"It's cute?" Cori asks. "Eleazar has never said it was cute."

"Eleazar doesn't think anything's cute," says Addy dismissively. "Oh, we should probably pay him a visit next, come to think of it. And look at Kate while we're there! I bet she just sparkles."

[nonbird]

"It's cute," Lazarus confirms. "Although I still think Alice's power snuggling with his mate bond wins the cute contest. Sure, let's go visit Eleazar."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"His mate's not a witch, so I imagine they don't interact, but Eleazar himself should be interesting," says Addy.

[self_composed]

"My destination is what, please?"

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Second Denali coven house," says Addy.

[self_composed]

And they're off!

[nonbird]

"...Huh," says Lazarus. "That's weird. It's like my power's cousin, or something. Great-aunt."

[her_imperial_radiance]

"Eleazar!" calls Addy. "C'mere!"

Eleazar emerges presently, and double-takes at both Bella and Lazarus. "...Hello," he says.

[nonbird]

Lazarus beams.

"Hi!"

[her_imperial_radiance]

Eleazar dispenses with further attempts at politeness and just stares at Lazarus. Addy, meanwhile, begins humming to herself and switching between both men's powers every minute or so and then staring around her.
