Smiles, watching her get dressed. "Exactly. I'm sure we messed with questionable magic.. but I still want to go back and see what else I can discover as far as scrolls."

Nodding, she straightened, turning her back to him.
"Tighten the strings for me?"
Thinking about what he had said, she commented, "What were you hoping to find? Don't you think it's strange enough that we found that one? And so easily... Like it was put there for us to find."

Smiles, working on the strings for her. "Something else interesting, something else to have another edge, and simply for curiosity."
Finishes tying. "Oh, I'm sure it was placed just for us, that kind of thing doesn't surprise me anymore, I'd like to find out who and why, though."
He reaches inside his locker, getting out a tight, long sleeved half shirt, tight black jeans, and even a spare pair of boots.

Scrunching her fingers through her wet hair, she considered what he had said.
"I just don't think it's a good idea to go blindly poking around, you know? I'd love to know, too, who thinks we need their help... If that's what it is, even. But, I don't want things to just spiral out of control, either."

Smiles, nodding. "Yeah... it would be best not to continue, especially after the forces we had meddled with this evening." he slips on his pants, then the shirt, and his boots last.

Moving to peek around the corner and check on their son, she slipped back to Duryn, pressing against him, surprised at how warm his skin was still. She had attributed it after his exit from the tub to the magic coursing through him. She had attributed it in the shower to the heat of the water. Now, his skin should have been cool, like she was used to, but it wasn't.
"Baby, you're hot. Do you feel any different?"

Smiles. "I feel absolutely to the limit full of blood, gorged on it. I think all of that blood is inside me now, I shouldn't have to feed on it for awhile."
He hugged her tight, then looks at her. "It feels good.." now that he was able to relax, his strong aura of power emanated from him, but stronger than it was before.

Snuggling into him, she actually enjoyed the aura of power around him. It was stronger and... somehow brighter than it ever had been. He felt lighter to her, shinier. Almost as if the darkness commonly wrapped around vampires had receded just a bit from him, leaving in its wake the pureness most other creatures exuded without ever realizing it. It was a very comforting feeling. It was easy for her to understand where their son got it from.
"So, what's our next plan of action?"

Smiles at her, shrugging. "You still need to hunt right? You could hunt for blood and I could hunt for energy.. so it will still be fun. I want to see if I can take general energy to feed on, we can go find some guinea pigs in the worst parts of the city. They taste the best, and I love when they try to put up a fight."

Nodding, she leaned up and kissed him, noting the magical tingle across his lips.
"Shall we take Lukas to the sitter, then?"

Nods. "Yeah.." he motions, leading the way.

Following behind him, she quietly contemplated the tingle her skin felt being so near to him. She was happy he was back, as odd as that sounded, since he hadn't really been gone... He felt different to her, but not in a negative way.
As they entered the room where Lukas was sleeping, she stopped and stared at him, a small smile spreading across her lips. She hadn't really stopped to consider the similarities between father and son. He didn't have enough hair just yet to tell what color it was going to be, not to mention if he was like most children, it could change between now and what it was going to be.
Gently grabbing at Duryn's sleeve, she made him stop and just look at the sleeping miracle across the room.

Smiles, taking the moment to watch. He still couldn't believe that it had happened, it really was a miracle. He thought his chance of having a legacy was lost centuries ago when he was killed, but how he had him, it was meant to be, so it would seem.
He was eagerly looking forward to watching him grow, it would be warm and positive experience, to live and grow with his family.

Putting her index finger against her lips, she tip-toed across the room. She didn't want to wake the baby, after all. Handing Duryn the diaper bag, she carefully lifted the infant from the bouncy seat and placed his head against her shoulder.
"Do you want to carry him, or the bag and bouncy?"
She didn't want to speak out loud, for fear of waking the child, and for some reason she felt he'd hear her in his head, just like it used to be, even though they hadn't established a connection since he was resurrected. She thought offering to allow him to carry his son might be appreciated.

Smiles at her, answering back by thought. "I'll carry him." he reached for him to hold him, so they could get him back upstairs and with the sitter.

Gathering up everything else, she followed him out the door, hoping beyond hope that the suddenly loud thumping of the club wouldn't wake Lukas as they scooted upstairs with him. As they got to the door, she quietly cracked it open for Duryn to enter before her, smiling and waving at the sitter, motioning the girl to the corner so they could talk.
"We need to go out for just a little longer. Are you sure you're ok with staying? Lukas just got to sleep again a little while ago. You shouldn't have a problem with him. If we don't get back before Tiri gets up, let her choose her cereal, then help her get her stuff together for school. She knows where everything is here. She just needs supervised. Someone should be around around 7:30-ish to get her."
The girl nodded and smiled, saying she was more than fine with it; after all, they had unlimited cable.
Grinning at the sitter, she moved into Lukas' room, leaning against the door frame, watching lovingly as Duryn laid his son down. She didn't think she'd ever get tired of watching the two together. It was such an endearing sight.
