*Malefica smiled and looked up at him, then she kissed him on the cheek.*
"Because you are the master of the house, my dear."
*She smiled as she read his mind, but didn't want to comment on his thoughts, in fear of disturbing a possible development of his feelings. Instead she turned to Eden again.*
"Well, my dear. You heard your father. Just in the house, when we don't have visitors. Outside the house, you will wear clothes. Both for protection against the weather, and for your own safety. A lady is not safe when she doesn't wear clothes in public."

*Eden didn't have to be told twice and was immediately shedding the constrictive garment.*
"Well that's fine. I'm not a lady."
*She promptly made a mad dash for the door of the room.*

*Malefica looked at her with a glimpse of humor in her eyes, then she turned to her husband again.*
"She must have that from your side of the family...." *She teased.* "If I remember correctly, I was always a lady."

*Icarus shook his head.*
"I will not take the blame for her actions. Perhaps it was your magics that polluted her mind."
*He turned to face her more properly.*
"What were you thinking accelerated your pregnancy like that? It could have hurt her."
Not that I would have cared. Mostly.

*Malefica smiled and snuggled closer to him, kissing him lovingly.*
"I will remind you, my dear, that I use my magic to do good things."
*She blushed and looked down, replying quietly.*
"As for the accelerated pregnancy, I was afraid that you wouldn't want me anymore if I changed too much... But I always made sure that I didn't harm her."

How shallow do you think I am?
*Icarus turned away from her.*
"And I don't use mine for good. What does that say about me?"
*He glanced to the door she'd disappeared through.*
"About her?"

*Malefica smiled and kissed him on the cheek.*
"I don't think you are shallow. But you must admit you turn away from me a lot. Sometimes I feel like I'm chasing you, and I don't like that. Makes me feel like a stalker or something."
*She went through the door to look for her daughter.*
"Eden, are you here?" *She called out softly.*

*Icarus sighed privately.*
It is not your form that displeases me.
*He walked to the window, staring out at the grounds below.*

*Eden slowed, internally debating. Finally she answered with a heavy tone.*
"Yes, Mother. I'm here."

*Malefica smiled and huggled her daughter.*
"Ah, there you are. I was wondering if you are hungry? You haven't eaten anything. I can make you something in the kitchen."

*Eden frowned and shrugged.*
"How should I know? I'm less than an hour old. What is it like to be hungry?"

*Malefica smiled and looked at her daughter with a glimpse of humor in her eyes. She chuckled with laughter.*
"You know, you look exactly like your father sometimes...."
*She thought about her daughter's question.*
"When you are hungry, you have an empty, hollow feeling inside your tummy. Like there is nothing there. And you will feel that it needs to be filled with something. Either food, or drink. Do you feel anything like that now?"
*The thought of asking such a question to a newborn baby who looked like a little 5-year old made her smile.*

*Eden concentrated very hard for a moment, then shook her blonde head.*
"I don't know. Maybe I should just try eating and see how it goes."

*Malefica smiled and took her daughter's hand.*
"Well," *she said.* "If you come with me to the kitchen, I think I can whip up something for you. Would you like some Sírloin steak, the same type as your father had for dinner? Or would you rather try some fruit or dessert?"

*Her tiny brow netted in thought.*
"I don't know what any of those things are. So maybe."
*She shrugged.*
