Loft above Luke's, Saturday morning

[lovemykilt]

Priestly was sleeping in, today, thank you very much. Unless his housemate woke him up to demand breakfast, he wasn't planning on being up until well into the afternoon. He'd woken up long enough to note that he wasn't feeling crazy horny for the first time in a week and decided that that deserved a nice, long morning off from doing anything remotely adult-like or responsible.

The plan was doomed, but he didn't know that yet. The couch was comfortable, Dean was running the diner, Momoko was . . . doing whatever she was doing this morning, and all was right with the world.

[ooc: for a particular child, but also open for other visitors, including and especially the one who arrived last night, should she care to ping.]

Alec peered inside. "Hi Aunt Momomoko!" she said. "Hi Uncle Priestly!"

[momokodomo]

Sin was having her usual run of luck holding onto her little brother's hand today. "Momomama!" he ran to her excitedly, brushing past the girl she was standing with to raise his arms. "Up! Up!"

"Sin?" Momoko recognized her, but the others... And since when did Sin call her mama? She was Dinah's daughter! "Uhm?" This was her confused face. Can everyone see it?

Boaz's face was a mirror of her mother's as she looked at the little boy calling her mom 'mama'. "She's my mom, not yours." She didn't say it unkindly, just... matter of factly. And then reached out to pat the boy's head. He was really cute, and she'd always wanted a little brother.

Priestly was so glad he'd gone for a night in watching Doctor Sexy last night, instead of trying to pick up another woman at the bar.

". . . I'm going to cook more eggs," he decided. "None of you are allergic, right? Any vegans?"

"Uncle Priestly!" Whew. Sin smiled big; he might recognize her from three years ago that way. She might have looked like she needed a hug. It'd been a slightly confusing morning. "No. And Lasumi eats anything that doesn't eat him first."

Thanks, Aunt Helena.

"Omnivore," Jane said. "I can actually respect that."

"Really?" Priestly said. "Because far as I can tell, you don't respect anything else."

Jane smiled at him. "You're such a natural father."

[momokodomo]

"Nom nom nom nom. Breakfas?" Lasumi grinned at the pretty babysitter-aged girl. He hugged Momomama's leg. He grinned at the girl with hair like Mama's. "I was good!"

No, no he wasn't.

"I'm hungry, too, Momomama," Alec declared. Look, the moms all got grouped together sometimes, OK?

[lovemykilt]

"Right, eggs all around. You guys are all Momo's?" Priestly asked, then looked over at Momoko. "Honey, I'm impressed."

[newlances.livejournal.com]

"Momomama's not my biological mom, Uncle Priestly. You know that," Sin protested a little, giggling. "I just call her that 'cause she's Lasumi's. And my adopted mom too."

Do that math, Priestly.

[lovemykilt]

"You look familiar," Priestly noted. "Have you been here before?" She wasn't one of his, he was pretty sure of that.

[heromaniac]

"That's Sin... Remember? She's supposed to be Dinah's daughter. How can... Wait, I adopted you? Is Dinah okay?!"

[techhasfeelings.livejournal.com]

"What about me?" Alec said, deciding it was a moral imperative to torture Momoko some more. "You don't remember me, Momomama?" She widened her eyes and let her lower lip tremble.

[heromaniac]

Momoko flailed and finally stepped close enough to sweep the little girl into a tight hug. "I'm sorry little one! I just... it's time travel and so, uhm, I don't know you yet here. Really! I didn't forget you! I never would! Honest and really and totally never!"

[newlances.livejournal.com]

Sin was trying very hard not to giggle behind Momomama's back. Alec was mean. But funny!

"Sister is fine, Uncle Priestly. She and Momomama live together ever since they got Lasumi."

[lovemykilt]

Priestly blinked. "Dinah and Momo . . ." A week of sex pollen had set his brain into certain habitual thought patterns. "Niiiiiice."

"Dad!" Jane threw an eggshell at his head. "Gross!"

[heromaniac]

A yo-yo followed immediately after that eggshell, lightly thrown and not charged, but still. There should be some owie to go with the "Priestly!"

Uhm.

"Okay. Well. That, uhm. Means the call to Dinah will be totally easier. And I don't have to go looking for any dads. Speaking of..." She glanced back at Boaz then turned to Priestly. "This is my daughter from a different time than these, since her name is Boaz and she has no uncle Priestly."

[lovemykilt]

"Dude," Priestly said. "I would never name a kid Boaz."

"Maybe you let Grandma Naomi name her," Jane suggested. "She looooooves the name Boaz."

[techhasfeelings.livejournal.com]

Alec was probably really glad she could feel machine's feelings and not humans, thank you, Priestly. She also felt a tiny bit guilty about messing with Auntie Momo's head.

"It's okay, Momomama," she said. "I know I must be from a different world, too, so you don't know me."

[momokodomo]

Boaz gave the man a stern look and crossed her arms at him. "Boaz is a pretty name! It means strong and I am too!" Did he need her to prove it?

"And Grandmother-Naomi didn't name me either. Mom did. After her friend who died, so it's the best name ever." She looked over at the strange big-girl with more of a smile. "You know Grandmother-Naomi? She's nice, isn't she!"

[momokodomo]

Nom nom nom nom nom nom... No more coffee creamers left. Or anything else edible within Lasumi's reach. That napkin was getting sucked on because it had some eggs spilled on it.

"More please? Hooooooongry." Lasumi could care less about drama. Or confusion. "Won tons!"

[hasafirstname.livejournal.com]

"Nice," Jane said. "Sure." If by 'nice' you meant passive aggressive and controlling. She was pretty pissed her 'little boy' had let her granddaughter get all pierced and tattooed up.

Jane passed Lasumi the loaf of bread Priestly had gotten out to make toast, curious to see what would happen. "Who gave birth to the vacuum cleaner over here?"

"Hang on," Priestly said, too distracted to notice the gobbling going on. "I think you're confused, kid. 'Grandma Naomi' is my mother. She named me Boaz."

Aww, he'd almost reached the point where he could say that at full volume.

[momokodomo]

By 'nice', Boaz meant she totally spoiled her.

Not that Boaz knew the reason; she just knew the spoiling part.

"Grandmother-Naomi didn't name me! And she's not your mom; she don't have kids anymore!"

"... doesn't..." Momoko interjected, totally out of some weird habit as she stroked Alec's hair and tried to figure this one out.

"Doesn't." SIGH MOM! English had stupid rules sometimes.

[lovemykilt]

"Anymore?" And click. "Holy crap, I'm dead in your version of the future?!"

[momokodomo]

Boaz rolled her eyes. "I don't know. Are you?"

"Boaz!" Momoko's voice was stern. "/Don't be rude./"

"/Sorry mom./" Boaz sighed heavily and tugged on her hair. "Mom says she found me after a portal brought me to Fandom Island when I was really little. She said she adopted me because I didn't go back and I called her mama. She named me after her friend, because they were going to get married but they couldn't and he died before she found me. Mom doesn't talk about him because it makes her sad just like Fandom Island."

[lovemykilt]

Right, they weren't going to get any straight answers from a little kid, were they.

"She ever say why it made her sad?"
