Title: The Naxens
Rating: PG
Summary: 17 sentences (from MP Prompts) for Gary, Cythera, and the Naxen brood.
1. Colour
On their wedding day, the memory that shone brightest was falling into Cythera's clear blue eyes, and knowing that he'd happily drown in them.
2. Hauntings
It was strange, no longer being known as the Younger.
3. Addiction
"Just one more," Zenoby pleaded, looking at the bowl of cherries with wide eyes.
4. Food
When Cythera thrust a baby Jaquetta at him, covered in spit-up and milk, saying "It's your turn," all he could do was gape.
5. Healing
"He's still with us, he always will be," she had whispered and kissed him on the forehead; all he could do was cry.
6. Puzzles
The children watched him, innocence radiating from their small faces, while he surveyed the mess on the ceiling.
7. Excess
"Mummy, I think you ate too much," Jaquetta said, poking her mother's pregnant stomach.
8. Strange Bedfellows
Gary gave a silent groan when he woke up to find four extra bodies sleeping in their bed.
9. Two of a Kind
Cythera laughed, not even bothering to wipe away the tears of mirth; Gimlyn had made himself a huge, bushy moustache out of hay.
10. Magic
Gary had once seen his father light a fire with his Gift; for once in his life, he was glad not to have inherited everything from his father, for Raoul would never let him live it down if his Gift was pink.
11. Race
The house was silent, all four children visiting their cousins - "I'll race you," Cythera smiled, a glint in her eyes, as they took off for the bedroom.
12. Behind Closed Doors
"Eww, they're kissing!" screamed Gimlyn, revolted as only a eight year old boy could be.
13. Once Upon A Time
"Daddy, how did you and mummy meet?" Zenoby asked, climbing into his lap.
14. Happily Ever After
"And then," he finished softly, watching his daughter's eyes slowly drift shut, "we lived happily ever after."
15. Disguise
"Geoffrey, I don't think Uncle Jon will like it if you go as Zombie Roger," Gary told his youngest, trying not to laugh.
16. Lies
"It looks...good," Thayet said, looking away from Gary's brand new moustache while Cythera smothered a laugh beside her.
17. Grinch
"Out." Gary said, ushering the children out of his bedroom for the third time that night, while Zenoby and Jaquetta rubbed their eyes sleepily.
