Well… that’s a can of soup wasted and splattered across the kitchen floor. One of the last ‘good’ cans, too. He had warned Julia that the bowl was too hot to touch. Ryon had been reaching for his when he froze in place, already getting riled up to tattle (even when the spill was a bit obvious.)
But Seifer doesn’t care about the wasted food, he’s kneeling down by the counter to reach for Julia’s hands, making sure they weren’t burned. “It was an accident,” An accident that would leave Julia unscathed, thankfully. “My fault. I shouldn’t have left the bowl in the microwave that long. See?” He showed her the tips of his fingers, how the heat had scalded his skin, made it red, shiny.
Even adults made mistakes.
Rubbing Julia’s hands, Seifer’s remembering why they never use the ceramic bowls for the children. “Grandma Sarah uses the plastic bowls, doesn’t she? How about you and Ryon grab a few wet washrags and help me clean this up, then I’ll make us something else.”

Seifer goes lots of places. Memories have a way of slipping up and catching up to the blond when he’s off guard.
This time it had been the scent in the thunderstorm that had rolled in. It reminded Seifer of home– a place where magic was not practiced, rarer still would it be present. His earliest memory of a thunderstorm– a real thunderstorm, had been when he came to Insomnia.
Magic did not exist in Gralea… but he felt it in the air, lingering in the petrichor of a summer street. Ramuh was present in the skies above, in the water that washed away the humidity of a sweltering heat. Shame, what they lacked in a world that tried so hard to glean more power and knowledge out of a husk of a God—
And there he goes again – pulled away from Lux’s question, likely worrying the poor man. They had been sitting together, watching another storm roll in. Ramuh’s blessings, and all that.
“I went home. Just for a moment. I hardly remember it most days but I remember the smell of it.” He breathes in, relaxing in his seat, “I sometimes wonder if I’ll ever return.”
I wanted to make a mention that I am an extremely slow roleplayer and it may take a while to reply back to threads, asks and things that I am tagged in.
Just a heads up – I’m purging any asks/threads that are from 2 months back. I’m doing this to keep new ideas and inspiration flowing through my muse.
If there’s anything that I have dropped and you would like to continue, please let me know, otherwise, I will consider them dropped and we can start something fresh. :D

Slipping into Reiner’s lap, Seifer’s thighs squeeze around those hips, arms curling around his lover’s neck as he regards him with a hint of amusement in those dazzling blue-green eyes of his. ‘Daddy’s day,’ he says.
Seifer licks his lips, slowly dipping down to move his lips to Reiner’s ear, “I’d say I cooked you dinner but you’d think I’m tryin’ to poison you. Where is that hand moving? The one that’s traveling from his neck and down across a firm chest. "I’d tell you I made reservations but all those kids of yours would want to come with…” Yep. They’re on that belt, working it open.
“So I figured I’d send everyone away for a few hours…” Because truth is, Seifer didn’t plan anything. He didn’t even know Father’s Day was even a thing, really. Not like Reiner’s gonna complain about that hand snaking its way into his pants. "At least that gives us time to stay in here and, well– celebrate~”
