Mirror Mirror on the Wall...Please, Send them Back Home

Trip Down to Harveston

"Hello Harveston~!" Yuu breathed, taking in the crisp air as he exited Crewel's convertible with a smile. "Cozy cabin days and fresh apple pie...amazing way to spend the new year!" He threw his hands up into the air with glee, all the while his father looked at him in fondness.

'Oh have to agree," Crewel hummed, coming up beside his adopted son as the others began to pull up or show up from the rented mansion that they all pitched in to have. "And away from those fuckers too," he grumbled.

"Yeah, about time...I couldn't enjoy the fall holidays because of...nothing, nothing. It's time for some pie! Luna is taking care of Grim for me and the ghosts are informing me of his condition daily so I can relax," Yuu placed his fists on his hips, standing proud before the main road as Epel and his Gran approached.

'Well, well, you're ready for a break," the teen snorted, Jack and Deuce not far behind. "Vil has been making our lives hell for the past two days since samples have been given and he wants all of us to see them."

"We are going to be faces of the brand," Yuu reminded them, all of them walking toward the manions where various members of their group and respective families were waiting.

"Yeah, yeah. I wish I said no now, but the money is going to help the folks here so it's not too bad," Epel snorted. "And even worse..."

"YUUUU-CHANNNN!!!"

"OOOFFFF," Yuu grunted as something small, furry and very powerful rammed into his middle sending the younger boy sprawling at his father;s feet.

"....Lord Cheka," Zazu sighed, rushing over with a short breath while Urbi followed at a more relaxed pace.

"Hello Cheka, Hello Zazu, Hello Urbi," Yuu commented, not moving while Cheka proceeded to squeeze him tighter.

"I missed you so much," the 5 year old cheered just as his mother grabbed him by the scruff and proceeded to yank him off the boy.

"Cheka, we talked about this," she sighed, looking disappointed all the while her son didn't in the slightest.

"But I missed him mama," he whined, Farena finally showing up alongside Leona who raised a brow at Yuu's predicament.

"Hehe," was all he got from the lazy lion who turned on his heel to leave.

'Hello Yuu," Farena smiled, offering a hand to the boy who accepted it with a grunt, allowing himself to be hauled up and dusted off by the king who offered him smiles all around. "Good to see you. I have heard a lot about your finals. Very good," he gave the boy a thumbs up.

"Thanks," he sighed, smiling as Cheka began to babble about wanting to see his magic and all other things.

"Most of the others are here. We are waiting for you Mer Friends," Farena informed him, Crewel humming as he tuned into the conversation and followed the royal family as they made their way into the communal waiting room where all commodities were. "But aside from that, it's been nothing but talk about the makeup lines!"

"I hope you are fine with me being part of it. I am not from Afterglow Savana nor do I have any connection to it-"

'Bah! You will be with my brother and your friends from Savanaclaw! You're all good," he assured the boy, moving them to some cushioned seats where Vil was going through a portfolio with his father and Rook.

'Hello potato," Vil hummed, Yuu rolling his eyes while grabbing a pillow to cuddle.

"Hello Mr. Manger," Yuu shot back, Vil shooting him a dry look as his father snorted into his fist in an effort to stop his laughter.
