"You'll have to forgive me, I'm a little biased after living on the stuff for a month." Adrian said. Once they got home, he got out first to help Amaya out of the car before handing her little Riley.

Once she got Riley, Amaya made her way up to the apartment, a little out of breath by the time she got in the family room, immediately taking a seat on the couch.
"Can I hold Riley, Mommy?" Calista asked as she ran over.
"Yes, but sit here on the couch." Amaya told her, waiting until the girl was sitting and carefully handed over the small baby. "Careful with his head." She murmured, smiling once she had him settled.

Adrian sat down on the other side of Calista, sandwiching her between him and Amaya as he watched Riley be his adorable baby self. He was still a little sad Riley wasn't brought into the world like most babies, stuck in a box for a while before his parents could finally hold him.

Seeing Adrian, Riley smiled and reached for him with his tiny fingers, his arms outstretched.
"Glad to see you know your own dad." Amaya teased with a wide smile as she looked down at him and Calista.

"I'd hope so; I think the doctors were starting to think I was the doting, obsessive dad sort with how often I was visiting." Adrian said with a small chuckle as he waggled a few fingers over Riley's head.

"Given the circumstances, I think they understood the obsessing." Amaya said as she resting her chin lightly on Calista's head.
"Mommy! Your head is heavy!" Calista giggled, shaking her head around a bit.
Riley smiled bigger and reached for Adrian's fingers, trying to hold onto them.

"And we really need to do something about your pessimism." Adrian said still playing with Riley. "I don't care if you are on your deathbed. You are forbidden from talking like that. Ever."

Amaya picked her head up off Calista's head, shaking her head a bit. "Well when you're torn up from the inside and unable to heal, you can talk to me about pessimism." She mumbled.

"I know, but that's when you lie." Adrian said easily. "Or at least keep your grim predictions to yourself."

"Lying gives false hope." She muttered, her thoughts traveling to Damien for a moment.
((goddamn this bio for Amaya is so long now!))

((Oh geez. XD ))
"What do you think, Calista?" Adrian asked as he looked down at the little girl that sat between them. "Would you rather be given false hope or told to just give up on things happening the way you want?"

"I dunno...mommy told me lying is bad..." Calista muttered, not liking being put in the middle of it.

"Not all the time. Sometimes we have tell little white lies to help people, or keep them from getting hurt." Adrian told her.

Calista only shrugged, looking back down at Riley to talk to him instead.
Sighing, Amaya got up, grabbing one of Adrian's wings with her right hand to get her point across that he needed to follow as she pulled him to the side. Once they were out of earshot, she crossed her arms over her chest, looking at Adrian. "Do we need to remind Calista I almost died? She's still not over the fact that she tore a grown man to pieces." She whispered in a harsh tone.

"Ow, ow, ow....." Adrian whimpered slightly as he was pulled along by his wing. "I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to go there." he whispered as he held up his hands defensively. "I may not have killed a man, but I'm still trying to get over all that too. You've almost died on me how many times now? And that's including your stunt when you shut down the arena. Still would have been nice to know you were going to fake your death..." he said before taking a deep breath. "You and Riley just got home and you're both still recovering...I think we're all still shaken for one reason or another and the stress is still high..."
