SS: We Are Family

[Chelliephone]

Overview

The Thanatos family was always a family of 4 - the patriarch, Renner Thanatos, the twins, Vera and Vasco, and the youngest little cherub, Vesper. But as the kids all began to grow up and leave the nest to go to boarding school to start their magical educations, they also couldn't help but worry about leaving their Papa home all alone by himself.

Which was why in the summer of 2111, the two girls hatched a plan to try to set their Papa up with someone else. They hadn't expected that unsuspecting individual to be Quidditch star, Raju Misra, nor did they expect exactly how well their half thought out plan would truly go.

Now in the summer of 2112, the two men have been together for nearing a year and things have been progressing well. But how well will the kids and Raju mesh together? And will things continue to go well?

Raju nodded. “Once we explain to her that it’s okay to sleep in for a bit, she’ll understand. I doubt she’ll sleep in but I’m sure she’ll find something to occupy herself with.” He trusted Vesper; she was incredibly mature and responsible for her age. Had anyone ever told Raju’s other half that he had such a wonderful smile? Oh wait. He had told Renner that ever so often. Still, the Quidditch coach will always feel his breath catch when that smile came into play. “It’s a date then, love.” There wasn’t time to say more as at the moment, Vesper herself was making her way towards him and Ren, bringing company with her.

Grinning, Raju lifted his free hand in a wave. He thoroughly enjoyed the fact that the smallest Thanatos easily made friends. “Hey, Vesp!” To the young boy, he gave him a warm smile. “Hello. It’s really nice to meet you.”


Viano threw a glance at Vesper. She seemed to be eager to announce his presence, didn’t she? That was fine but he just wished he would stop feeling so nervous. As he approached the men, he gave them a small smile. They both seemed friendly which was incredibly helpful. “Ciao,’’ he replied {‘hello’ in Italian}, his eyes lingering longer on Raju before darting to Renner. Goodness! This little guy was starstruck more than ever! Help him, Vesper!

"She's a smart young lady. There's plenty for her to do while she waits for us all to wake up.. and if not, she can wake up her brother and sister." Renner agreed, chuckling some. Hmm, let him think. Yes! Raju told him so. His man had a great smile as well. "I'm already looking forward to it."

His gaze shifted at the same time as Raju's did to see his youngest coming towards them with her new friend. "Hello kids, everything going well?" It was always a good idea to check-in with the children.

If Vi wanted to call her eager, this girl had no problems with it. Introducing him to her family was gonna happen at some point she was sure of it, so why not right now? Vesper smiled brightly at both men even though she kept casually glancing at the younger boy beside her. Poor boy looked like he couldn't get anymore words out of her tried! "This is Viano! He helped me find all of these seashells." Which of course she moved closer to show Raju and her papa. "Viano.. this is my papa Renner annnnnnnnd as you already know... This is Raju!" She gave the men a smile and the tiniest hint of a nod, silently confirming that Vi knew all about Raju so clearly he had to know about the magical world!

That much was true! Vesper was smart and could easily be occupied with the twins. Possibly she could spend her time keeping them out of trouble. And Ren was right: there were plenty of plans to look forward to. Also something to enjoy were plans that hadn’t been made, the unexpected and the spontaneous. Like meeting this seemingly shy little guy. Raju’s gaze turned to Vesp as she introduced her friend then peeked at the shells. “That’s a very nice name,’’ he told Viano. “And some really pretty shells, Vesp. For jewelry?”

When it was mentioned that Viano knew him, and after catching Vesper’s knowing nod, Raju immediately figured that the boy was a Wizard. “Why don’t you join us?’’ he suggested, glancing at Renner but already knowing the other man wouldn’t mind. He indicated to the vacant chair next to him. “Do you play Quidditch too?”



Thank the heavens Vesper saved him. Vi hadn’t met any other celebrity other than Raju so he was quite uncertain of how to act. Or rather, he knew that he should be normal but it was very difficult when one found themself in the presence of their favourite Quidditch player. Vi cleared his throat, probably to hide the little squeak of surprise that threatened to escape. Raju wanted him to sit next to him? Vi hoped he didn’t pass out. Instead, he focused on nodding and taking the seat.

Only then did he clear his throat once more to force words out. “Si. Chaser, like you.” That was as much as he could manage to say right now.
