"Milori! Give it back!" Clarion yelled as she flew after him. Milori softly tossed her tiara in the air and caught it. "Give it back daddy! Right now!" Lyla ordered. Milori stopped and looked at his child. "Don't boss me around. Besides, where are your manners?" Milori smirked picking her up. "I have manners! If you had manners you wouldn't steal mommies tiara!" Lyla responded with. Clarion grabbed the tiara from his hands when he wasn't looking. "She has a point." "She is 5. Why does she always have a point?" Milori asked confused.

"I'm very smart. Like mommy. Not like you." Milori faked a hurt look and pretended to cry. Clarion rolled her eyes knowing he was faking. "No, no daddy! Don't cry! I was kidding, wait, no I wasn't. It's okay! Not everyone's smarr!" Lyla apologized hugging him around the neck. Milori didn't know whether to be offended or alright with it. "Princess, i'm not that stupid. I'm the Lord Of Winter. I'm very smarT" Milori emphasized the "T." Lyla always said "Smarr" and not "Smart." Clarion grabbed Lyla out of Milori's arms, "Don't lie to the dear girl. You aren't that smart. I used to do your algebra homework." "And I did your history homework. We are both the same amount of idiotic." Clarion rolled her eyes and they continued walking around in the snow.

Lyla jumped out of Clarions arms and ran in circles in the snow. "Idiotic? Thats a funny sounding word," Lyla commented. "Idiotic. Idiotic. Idiotic. Idiotic." Clarion and Milori both shot eachother a worried look. "Dear, don't say that word. It's not polite," Clarion told Lyla. "Daddy said it." Milori rubbed the back of his neck and Clarion sighed. "Well, last time you said a word daddy said you got into trouble, didn't you?" Clarion reminded her. Lyla nodded her head slowly not looking up. "What's the proper use for the word?" she asked. "Dear, you don't need to know." Milori scoffed and sat down in the snow. Clarion looked confused at him. Lyla ran over and sat in his lap.

"Idiotic...." Milori started. "Dear god not again...." Clarion mumbled. Milori continued saying, "The proper use for it is when a fairy is being not smart. Very not smart. If a fairy is flying and hits a tree. That is idiotic. If a fairy says something really silly, that's idiotic. It's a mean word. Don't say it unless you really have too," Milori told Lyla. Lyla nodded in understanding. "I won't use the word till I really have too. I promise," Lyla smiled. Clarion smiled bittersweetly at Lyla. She looked back towards Milori who was very proud of his teaching moment. "Mr. Wintrix, we are going to be late for my review in springtime square." "I'm aware Mrs. Wintrix" he mocked back.

Milori stood up picking Lyla up with him. They all began flying towards springtime square. The stars were just beginning to show. "Okay, Lyla you can go with daddy. I will see you later," Clarion told her hugging her. "No mommy! I want to go too!" Lyla begged. Clarion looked at Milori who just shrugged. "I don't see why she can't go," Milori told Clarion. "Alright. Well dear, want to pixie dust transport with me!?" she asked her. Lylas eyes grew wide as she smiled. "Yes! Yes! Yes! I want to pixie dust teleport!" She excitedly told her. Milori smiled at them both and said, "I will see you there." Milori flew off in the direction of where Hyacinth was waiting and made small talk.

Clarion picked up Lyla and asked, "Are you ready?!" Lyla nodded. She put her arms around her moms neck. "I will count down from 5." "5! Just like me!" Clarion nodded, "5...4...3...2...1" Clarion snapped her fingers and they disappeared in a trail of dust.

"Is the little princess coming today?" Hyacinth asked Milori. "That's a suprise." Hyacinth looked at Milori wondering what he was keeping from him. A golden light shown from infront of them. They had to look away to not be blinded. Hyacinth looked back up and his mouth dropped open. Milori was smiling brightly. Queen Clarion was floating down while holding Lyla. "I did it! Mommy we did it!" Lyla beamed. "Yes we did. When your older you can do it on your own!" Lyla was smiling and giggling when Hyacinth flew up. Milori stayed on the ground talking to a group of tinkers who were very proud of there new inventions.

"Minister, how are all the preparations?"
"They are going wonderfully your highness! Tinkerbell hasn't ruined anything yet..."
"Oh minister, i'm sure she won't. This time...."
Lyla was still being carried by Clarion. She was keeping silent and smiling while her mother and Hyacinth talked. "Princess Lyla, what's your favorite season?" Hyacinth asked trying to somewhat include her. "Winter!" Lyla beamed. Milori heard that and smiled. "Good answer!" Milori yelled towards her. Clarion rolled her eyes and tickled Lyla. Lyla started giggling and squirming. Hyacinth weakly smiled. "Well, I suppose winter is an Okay season..." Lyla gasped and looked hurt. "Minister of Spwing! Winter is the best season. It more than okay!" Lyla defended. "Now Lyla, every fairy can have their own opinion," Clarion told her daughter. "But his opinion is wrong...." Lyla mumbled.

Clarion flew down to Milori alongside the minister. Lord Milori was nodding his head while a few tinkers still talked his ear off about their inventions. "And when you press this button, it'll paint leaves way easier!" "Well, that's brilliant," Milori complimented. The fairies all giggled at having Lord Milori compliment them. "Lord Milori is correct. It's awfully brilliant," Clarion beamed at them. The fairies all smiled. They bowed and flew off. Milori picked up Lyla from Clarion. "Winter is the best season isn't it Princess?" Milori questioned his daughter. "Yes it is! Millions reasons why!" Lyla answered proudly. Hyacinth shook his head and was starting to get annoyed. He thought his season was superior.

"Princess, there are even more reasons why spring is better! One, it is the most colorful. Two, all the flowers are in bloom. Three, it's not as cold. No season is meant to be that cold," Hyacinth listed. Milori faked a yawn. Lyla copied her father and yawned too. Clarion pulled down her hand and shook her head at Lyla. "Do not copy your father Princess Lyla," Hyacinth told her. Clarion shot Hyacinth a look and told him, "Don't tell my daughter what she can and cannot do. That is my job." Milori nodded his head while focusing on Lyla.

"Minister of Spring. You are very idiotic," Lyla boldly stated. Hyacinth looked as if he were to faint. Clarion gasped. Every fairy near dropped their things. Milori bit his lip trying to not laugh. "Lyla! Do not say such a thing!" Clarion scolded. Milori sarcastically nodded his head in agreement. "I'm sorry minister!" Clarion apologized. "It's-it's quite alright your highness..." Hyacinth weakly said. "Lyla, apologize to the minister this moment." Lyla scrunched her nose, "Why? Daddy said the word earlier. He said I can use it when it makes sense! He was being idiotic!" Fairies all gasped. Clarion turned and looked at them all. They all pretended to work once again.

"Lyla, apologize. I didn't ask for your opinion. You are 5. You can't say that. Say sorry," Clarion condescendingly told her. Lyla sighed and looked at Milori. Milori sheepishly smiled. Lyla looked back towards the minister, "I'm terribly sowwy. I will never call you that word again. No matter what you say. It was not polite." The minister smiled and said, "It's quite alright your royal highness. I accept your apology." Clarion and Milori both knew their daughters apology was fake. The minister was to idiotic to catch on. "Once again minister I'm sorry," Clarion apologized for the 100th time. "Your highness, do not freight. Children say things their parents say all the time," Hyacinth responded eyeing Milori.

Milori weakly smirked. Milori was holding Lyla while Clarion was walking next to them. "Lyla, do not call anyone idiotic. It's not a princess thing to do." Lyla nodded her head and rested her chin on Milori. "Daddy....the minister was very idiotic...spring is never as good as winter..." Lyla whispered. Milori tried to not laugh. He whispered back, "You are correct dear...." Clarion looked at them both confused. "What are you talking about?" "Nothing Luv." "Nothing Mommy." Milori and Lyla answered at the same time. Clarion raised her eyebrow knowing very well they were hiding something.

"Winter is supposed to be cold....that was the most idiotic thing I have heard for a reason...." Lyla mumbled as she fell asleep on Milori's shoulder. Clarions mouth dropped open and Milori smiled. Clarion shot him a look. Milori knew very well he was going to get reprimanded later too. "She has a point....those were very idiotic reasons," Milori slightly laughed. "She is 5. She always has a point."
