...Well.

[Ranma has to think about it. They can talk about trauma. They can talk about the feeling of violation. They can talk about the history lost. The lies. The things they don't know. The things they'll never know. The pieces they have to rebuild. The pieces they'll never find.]

Well.

...We came in here expecting to confirm that we have two daughters, no matter what. Now we have three.

I say, let's feast.

[hououji]

You want to hold a feast? [ Fuu raises her eyebrows. ] It could… project confidence. Ease the people a little.

[fluidgender]

Certainly. There's all kinds of political benefits.

And also, I have three daughters and a wife who need to eat. I want to eat and I want to see everyone healthy. As far as I'm concerned, this is a time to celebrate instead of wallow in.

[hououji]

It will be a difficult thing to explain…

Kaori, would you like to draft a statement with me? [ Learn how that’s done? ]

[fluidgender]

Well, only if everyone's comfortable with things being public knowledge. We could also just have a feast for everyone's safe return.

[Kaori sort of looks to Adora and Nia to check on their states but.] Yeah, I could... help I guess.

[hououji]

[ Adora looks. Guilty. Oh man she made everything so much more complicated.

But ranma and Fuu get a biological daughter that suits them more. All regal and cute and whatever. All the more reason she can pull back into the shadows. ]

[fluidgender]

...Maybe we focus on the survival part and worry about announcing anything else later.

As long as there's meat, that's what I'm hoping for.

[hououji]

I’ll send someone to speak with the cooks. We’ll see about something public soon.

[ Adora kinda looks away. ] I should… go let Leslie know.

[fluidgender]

Give her my regards.

And... if you need anything, distraction or otherwise, you can always let us know.

[hououji]

I’m. Fine? It’s better we know the truth now…

[ Fuu’s concerned watching her go. ] … Leslie’s room is the other direction. Are we sure she should be alone right now?

[missedorientation]

I could go check on her... she's probably pretty overwhelmed.

[hououji]

Are you sure? You’ve also just been through a lot.

[missedorientation]

Unless you think she's ready to have a mom and dad talk with the people she was raised to kill?

[hououji]

… she’s been having them on and off I think…

[missedorientation]

Then we'll ease her into more of 'em. Right now, I'm gonna hold her hand.

[Its not the only thing she wants to do but.]

[hououji]

Just be careful, love. Don’t ignore your own feelings.

[missedorientation]

What do I gotta worry about? I got a kid sister to bully now.

[hououji]

You do not have anyone to bully. Have you ever seen your aunt bully me?

[missedorientation]

A thing this family has been missing!

[hououji]

I raised you to be kind.

[missedorientation]

All the more reason its important to understand a little bit of mean!

[hououji]

[ She shakes her head and will let Catra go after Adora.

She’s kinda hanging out on the training grounds. Just. Staring at nothing. ]

[missedorientation]

[For all her jokes, she's very careful as she steps up next to Adora. Just sort of sharing in her presence above all else.]

[8footswordlady]

H-hey. Are you—shouldn’t you be with your parents? Your dad was saying something about a feast.

[missedorientation]

Please, that's not getting built in a day. And there's bigger priorities to me.
