Nolan Home for Wayward Refugees, 33 Apocalypse, Saturday Morning

[not_in_the_book]

Ronan knew full well what day it was. In fact, he'd made sure to get up early and start cooking, just in case. Hey, if he didn't have any kids show up, he could always share the food with kids of people who had.

Anyone walking by 33 Apocalypse on Saturday morning, though, would see a new sign affixed near the front door:

Nolan Home for Wayward Refugees

Scrawled underneath was:

and Temporally Displaced Children
All Welcome

Anyone hungry? There's bacon, eggs, sausage, toast, fried potatoes, fried tomatoes, and waffles. Lots and lots of waffles. And, with the open door, the scent was probably drifting out into the street.

[Open for Ronan's kids, visitors, other people's kids, and anyone else who wants some breakfast.]

"Dai, love!" he called back. "C'mon in, there's breakfast."

No, he didn't know offhand who it was -- but there were only so many people who'd use that particular greeting.

"Good!" Katrina wandered in and beamed at him before giving him a hug. "Bet you didn't expect to see me again when I didn't show up last year, hmmm?"

She handed him some flowers she'd gotten from the side of the road. "Feeeeeed me. I just got back from Crossings and then the portal diverted me here."

"I've decided not to expect anything when it comes to Fandom," Troy pointed out. "But besides that, someone's actually shown up who wasn't even here that last time. Remember Peach?"

Yeah, Ronan was never going to call him Michael.

"And Caled's here again, too."

"Of course! Baby brothers!" Katrina gave him a suspicious look. "You didn't get any more daughters though, did you?" Someone was going to have to pout a bit, if so.

[not_in_the_book]

Uh. About that.

"Actually..." Ronan started, pointing over to where Pandora and Betty Jr. were presumably, since the thread hasn't gone that far yet eating their own breakfasts. "Not both of them, but the one is mine. Pandora. She and Betty Jr. share Pandora's other father."

"Hmmph." That was a very Parker look that the younger girl was getting there. Very. "How old is she? And who's her mom?" Betty Jr. was being completely ignored here. Wizard Katrina might be, but possessiveness was still something she fought with.

[not_in_the_book]

Hah. 'Mom'.

"Hercules," Ronan said. "He's Betty's father, too."

Katrina blinked, but gave him a much less Bzuh?! look than her mother would've given him. "Hunh," she said, thoughtful. Her mom was still the prettiest, then. And probably still the scariest. "Well. I suppose she can stay." She smirked at him. "Is she a wizard too? Like us?"
