That night was a big celebration. Zaecondis was dead, so why not celebrate?

At least, everyone except Daiko thought. But she joined anyways in order not to make a scene.

"Kampai!" She shouted. Everyone else joined, even though they didn't know what the word meant.

"Mmm! The meat is good!" George stuffed even more into his mouth.

Mary giggled, not bothering to lecture George, since it was a celebration after all. Hearthfell smiled, since he loved it when she smiled. He reached for her hand under the table and grabbed it, which caused Mary to smile even more.

George saw what Hearthfell did. He decided that he didn't mind anymore, because it kept Mary happy.

Alex then thought of something. "I think I've got this! Babies are made through... married couples hugging and kissing each other at the same time!"

George and Hearthfell snorted, then coughed *virgin*.

"Okay, that probably wasn't it. But I know what you guys are saying! Stop making fun of me!"

Daiko looked around, smiling. Jarred had his arm around Bella's shoulders, and Alex was trying to punch George, who was still doing the virgin cough, and Hearthfell and Mary were laughing at that.

Daiko was happy that everyone had grown since she met them, and jubilant in the fact that she was with them and that there would be a jackpot ending soon.

But... Something was fishy.
