Song: Funkyard - By: Arrowhead & Zentra - Word Count: N/A

How long had it been since that day? Since the day in which Arianda, too far in pain to realize absorb it, realized she was mother of a child she never knew to be hers; Calypso, a child of hers and Mana's. Back then, it was quite difficult to deal with that revelation; to truly process it. Since then, Arianda had processed it, and she had only seen her daughter maybe once or twice. It left a pit in her stomach. She wished to see her, to be the mother she never could be; to find her and try to help her. However, she had never done it. Why? It was hard for Arianda to say. Perhaps she felt guilty, perhaps she didn't feel like it was her place to intervene; however, it was more likely Arianda was scared. She was scared that Caly would reject her outright; which was why the demon had not chased after her daughter. Not to mention, she seemed quite good at being able to make it so she can't be followed if she doesn't wish to be followed. However, Arianda still desired to be with the girl, her child; to help her. It just took courage.

However, Arianda had not mustered the courage. Frankly, she had no idea where Caly was; which made Ari feel even more-so guilty that she had no idea where her little girl was. Even if Caly wasn't so little, it was hard for Arianda not to wish to refer to her as such. She called Aki it, after all. Regardless, Arianda still had a great desire to see her daughter and to finally be the mother Caly deserved; the mother Arianda should have been from the start. It was hard to do that, however, when you had no idea you even had a daughter. That changed nothing, however; Arianda was going to be the mother Caly deserved... she would.

Knock, knock, knock

Arianda's thoughts had been torn away the moment she heard a knock at the door. It was a little surprising, since no one but Ulv would come knocking like that. Who could that have been? Arianda had no idea, in the slightest, who would be at the door; especially because Ari was expecting no company. So, Arianda decided it was best to answer it.

With a quick peek through the peep-hole on the door, Arianda only saw... well, colorful plants. Arianda slightly recognized the energy on the other side of the door; but she was still uncertain who it could be. Without too much worry, Arianda opened the door to find what awaited her; which appeared to be a wall of flowers.

"Um... Hello~?"

Like Mother, Like Daughter [Private: Arianda, Calypso] 6EdIfMt



ENTER THE DREAMER

Song: My Time


The knocks were far too gentle to have been from a spontaneous and powerful woman such as Ulv, even if she was now a mother. The presence behind the door radiated with a sense of calm gentleness, even a well of wistful sadness. It was like a soft covering of fog rested behind the door, it's presence passive and refusing to be overbearing on the woman residing on the other side. It was almost like something was reaching out for her, to hold and treasure her...

And once the door was opened, the sight of many held cut flowers of all varieties would be revealed to Arianda, held gingerly by shadowy tendrils. Amongst these flowers was a pale face, locks of snow white hair hardly poking through the bunches of plant-life. Upon this pale face were a pair of brightly gleaming golden eyes, their warmth and intensity sticking out fiercely amongst the porcelain features; something that didn't belong with such an appearance.

From these eyes, these bright, drawing eyes, did golden tears form; a color such tears have not taken for a long, long time, almost as if they had remembered what they truly wept for.

It was Calypso, and her gaze was wide and transfixed on the demon before her. Eyes filled with so much feeling upon seeing her, she felt a lump in her throat, the sensation of emotion hitting her as her mind went back to that day, when she was in so much distress and torture, awakened to reality upon seeing her mother crumbled on the ground, close to her death.

She didn't come see her. After all of that, she didn't come see her. She practically forgot the woman as her cravings to prove herself worthy, to gain power, had clouded her vision from what was important. She didn't even send the woman a message. Though it was not guilt she felt in this moment, no; It was a determination to set things right. Guilt would do nothing but leave her worried in a puddle - She had no time to waste groveling.

But seeing her.. Seeing her alive and well... It welled the demon with so much relief yet so much sadness, sadness in that she wasn't fighting tooth and nail to see her first.

"...Hi Mom," Her voice was choked, as she would speak. She wouldn't be surprised if Arianda wouldn't want to see her again; at the very least, she would want to make it right by her here, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not looking for you, or visiting you, or making sure you were okay... My foolishness blinded me. And for that, i'm so very sorry. I don't have to come in, but.. At the very least, if you could accept my gift.."

She gently offered the flowers forth, "..They're.. All wild. I spent hours picking and arranging all of them. Don't worry I fixed whatever I picked, just.. I hope this labor is enough to show how sorry I am."

The face she saw amidst those flowers had positively shocked Arianda into silence. As if willed here by the simple desire to see her daughter; here she was. Arianda couldn't help but stare, her mouth partially agape, as she looked upon the beautiful features of her daughter. Demons and similarities were always a hard thing. All it took was a change of the mind and your look would differ. However, that didn't change the fact that Arianda couldn't help but see a bit of herself in Caly right now; watching her daughter cry and apologize. As Caly cried, apologized, and offered Ari flowers, Arianda felt the tears that Caly were shedding echo upon Arianda's own face.

Without a word, she gently took the flowers from Caly, carefully placing them on a nearby counter as she continued to stare at her daughter. Her brain didn't initially register that Caly had called her mom, and not by name; but when she did, it sent a sense of elation through the small demon's body. Once again, without a word, Arianda gently took hold of Caly's arms and pulled her inside and into a warm hug like none other; rubbing the back of her daughter's head and back so gently. The way she held Caly, though a little tight, made it seem as if Caly was the grandest treasure that Ari had ever held. It was then, that Arianda began crying anew, just like her daughter was.

"Oh my silly girl, you have nothing to apologize for; I should have come to find you. Come to see you; come and be the mother I should have been. I am so, so sorry for all the time I didn't have to be with you, Calypso."

Arianda held Caly close, held her tight, and used a tendril to close and lock the door as she held Caly in her loving embrace. Arianda refused to believe that Caly was at fault for what had happened; frankly, Ari was more willing to blame herself for not coming sooner. However, she simply let those thoughts drift away as she held her darling daughter in such a dearly loving embrace.

"But... But no matter our reasons, it's all okay; because you're here now. To me, Caly, that's what matters."

After speaking, Arianda let herself slightly dissolve into a warm, slightly teary, embrace as she held her daughter close. It was odd, to think that she and Mana had a daughter; but she didn't care if it was odd. Right now, Arianda just knew she would be there for Caly; she would be the mother that Caly should have gotten so long ago. She would make sure Caly felt truly, honestly, loved by her mom.

"Thank you for the flowers, dear... They're beautiful."

ENTER THE DREAMER

Song: My Time


Calypso watched as the woman merely took the flowers from her grasp, silently staring at her for a few moments. The young demon's gaze lowered slightly, as even her empathic abilities couldn't properly place how the woman felt in this moment. A gentle sigh left the girl's soft lips, eyes blinking away tears as she would tip her head, move her body to turn away, speaking words of disappointment into the world,

"..That's alright. It wasn't the first mistake I- Huh?"

She felt something stop her - Ari had grabbed her shoulders as she was moving away. Rapidly, her mind prepared her for the worst. Her body and mind had been primed to react quickly and extensively to the notion of possible bodily harm; several scenarios clicked into her mind as how to react to the demon's grasp on her - throwing her, attempting to shatter her arms, crushing her, piercing her.. It would be an apt reaction to what she failed to do for the woman, especially for such ruthless creatures such as they. She was prepared to be dealt such punishing blows, and to react to such a thing. If it came down to sharing blows in order to express such deep hurt, she was willing...

..Willing.. To..?

None of the scenarios her mind spawned came to fruition. Rather... She felt the warmth of her mother's embrace and emotions against her stiff, readied form. Not digging into her flesh, not burning her.. Merely embracing her.

Calypso was shocked to a degree; She didn't expect her to react in such a way.. She expected her to be upset, heartbroken, angry, betrayed that her daughter didn't bother to come see her. To come shower her in love and affection for such a hard time...

Though, Ari's words sealed the deal - she expected no apology from Calypso, rather.. She blamed herself. She was so happy to see her once more. The demon's eyes were widen, but soon they would well with tears, her gaze softening as she completely dropped her guard. It took a minute or two, but her whole being realized - Her mother was not angry at her, and her mother would not hurt her.

With that, Calypso's arms would return the favor tenfold, almost squeezing Arianda with how much sensation flooded into her heart, holding her dear and close as she would press her face into her neck, eyes shut tightly as her strange tears would quickly make a glittering mess of the woman's shoulder, softly sobbing as she took in the demon's warmth, love, and regard for her. She smiled wearily, speaking as her face was hidden against her shoulder,

"..I'm glad you're happy."

Arianda had briefly noticed that Caly was quite shocked to be hugged; as if she expected punishment. That was not the woman Arianda was. She would reprimand her child if she did something bad; not for something like this, and certainly not in such a savage way. After all, neither of them made moves to see the other; equally at fault. Which meant, there was no issue; and Arianda was glad to see her darling daughter. Even if she was not entirely whole from her journey, even if she may be scarred thanks to Algos; Arianda was far past elated to know that she wanted to see her. Soon enough, Arianda's tears were joining by Caly's; feeling the odd, glimmering, tears wet her shoulder and neck. That was alright. Again, Arianda was the mother Caly needed; the one Arianda should have been so long ago.

"I'm very happy, my dear; happy to see you. Happy to hold you."

Arianda was not perturbed by the hug that her daughter had brought her into; tight and squeezing. That's fine, it's just how Ari liked her hugs depending on the situation. However, the demon decided it would be best if they sat down somewhere. Slowly, very slowly, Arianda gently relinquished the warm, comforting, hug; and gently took Caly's face in her hands. The demon gently wiped away the tears that had adorned the Danava's face; giving Caly a smile that was full of love. She pecked her daughter on the forehead, smiling as she lowered a hand to take one of Caly's; guiding her into her living room and onto the couch. She pulled her daughter into a warm hug once sitting down; gently stroking the back of her head and slowly guiding her fingers through Caly's white hair.

Arianda was so... Soothing. So naturally soothing, both as a mother and as a person; letting Caly rest her head wherever she wished. Be it on Ari's shoulder, lap, or elsewhere, Ari welcomed it. However, as Ari let Caly cry and let her emotions out, she would keep gently caressing her head and hair.

"My dear daughter; my dear Calypso..."

It seemed, despite all Arianda did as far as comfort, she had no words for the situation; but there was no denying the complete care and love that coursed from her. It could be a little surprising for Caly, given she only knew one of her mothers; Mana, who wasn't nurturing like Ari. However, it was likely a welcome surprise. In the end, Arianda is truly unable to relay her affections through words; but, her actions spoke volumes of such things. Arianda gave her a warm smile once again, humming a soft tune as she did her best to comfort her poor daughter; make sure she knew that everything was, and will be, alright.

"Tell me, little one, when you're ready of course, what have you been doing as of later~? I imagine we have quite a lot of catching up to do."

ENTER THE DREAMER

Song: My Time


Calypso would feel the woman's embrace lessen for a moment, the young demon's heart skipping a beat as she felt Ari's arms move away from her. She didn't want this feeling to stop - she wasn't ready to let go yet. A little bit of panic lit in her as she feared such love was released, the desire to fill that primal urge of receiving parental love all the stronger in a moment like this. However that panic subsided when the demon touched her face so gingerly, wiping away her tears, giving her a look of pure unconditional love. Tears continued to roll down her face in droves, like a stream of melted gold, the smile on her face growing all the more when her mother kissed her forehead and took her hand, leading her to the couch.

This almost felt like a dream; One big fucked up trick of her own mind on itself. The amount of joy she felt was immeasurable, she was almost hesitant to allow it to continue, but such emotions were pushed away - This was her mother, this was real, and she was going to relax.

With that, a sigh escaped her lips as they sat together, laying her head on the woman's shoulder as she would find rest in her embrace. In the darkness of her mind, a memory of a time her wishes did not come true resurfaced. The young creature was lying alone, hidden under sheets of a bed in a cold, empty room, arms wrapped around her small, dark, undeveloped figure. She cried tears, of pain, of loneliness, as the mother she yearned so deeply to know and hold completely disregarded her. None held her, none loved her, none worried for her safety and wellbeing - merely a child left to fend and love herself.

She silently shed more tears for that little one who was not given love, a sad silent wish that she could have gone back and told her she would truly be loved, even if such love came far overdue. A moment like this was one she only had received seldom before, having to earn her keep. But this, was unconditional, freely given. She didn't have to face punishment or give half herself up, she could just hold and be held, and it would all be alright...

"..What i've been doing? Oh, gods.."

She chuckled softly, sniffling and rubbing her tears away, trying to dry up as she contemplated what to even begin with,

"..Well. Me and Vanyel, not sure if you've met him, but that should change soon.. Well we're together now," She smiled sweetly as she imagined his face, a visible prismatic blush coming to her face,

".. Realized, some things about Algos. Got upset over that. I.. Still don't know how to feel,"

She brushed one of her hairs out of her face, "Tried to rule Vicara. That backfired, uh.. Horribly. It.. Wasn't anyone's to take. I was foolish for going there when there were lands who were really struggling. I messed up pretty bad."

She sighed softly, "Realized more things after speaking to others, and.. I've decided something i've been hesitant to settle on."

Shutting her eyes, she would then part her lips, "..Mana, Algos... I can't.. I can't be with them anymore. For the brighter outlook of the future for demons, as well as my own wellbeing - I have to separate.. I.. I don't think I should even call myself 'Asthavon' anymore.. There's so many awful things tied to them and just.. I wanted to help them change, but it isn't happening.. I can't act like I can bear or afford to sit idly by anymore."

She held Ari's arm, her gaze low. Her eyes flashed, another memory resurfacing, to Arianda lying amongst a room of gore and blood, merely a plaything to Mana to use and abuse to her delight or dread, "..Mom did awful things to you, and you ended up leaving.. You understand, right?"

Perhaps Arianda's method of parenting was far more... human. But, that didn't matter; she didn't care if Mana had intended for Calypso to become tougher by being a distant parent. In fact, she had accomplished something opposite of such; she was afraid of being embraced and loved by her family. She expected everything but honest, unconditional, affection. However, as Arianda held her daughter that slowly changed; Caly knew that she didn't have to do anything to achieve Ari's love. She did not have to prove herself, endure abuse, do something for the demon; no, she would receive love just by being Ari's daughter. Which was why, as Caly spoke, Arianda remained politely quiet; determined not to interrupt.

As she listened, the name Vanyel did cause Ari to raise an eyebrow gently; in an 'Oh? I didn't know that' kind of way. She knew of Vanyel, in a way; she had seen him in demon world after what Algos had done to Minatumie. Not to mention, Arianda could have sworn she had a run-in with a man who looked very similar to him. However, she pushed such things out of her mind as she listened to Caly. She kept on trying to prove herself to her family, to the Asthavon's, before finally realizing she did not wish to be part of that family; even if she cared for Mana. As Caly spoke, Arianda subtly drew her daughter closer; further into her warm embrace. She knew all too well what it was like to have to leave. Arianda gently caressed the back of Caly's head, running her finger gingerly through Caly's white locks of hair; still humming gently as her daughter spoke.

Soon, came a subject that made Ari's humming cease. She did not wish to be an Asthavon any more; or at least she didn't wish to call herself such. Sure, she failed to rule an Area; but that was something Arianda had failed at as well. She did not wish to be a ruler, anyways; and, perhaps, it was best that Caly was not a ruler either. Vael women may be strong but... ruling didn't exactly seem something Ari ever had seen for herself, and now, not for Caly either; even if the girl may be part demon royalty. Or was she full demon royalty because Ari was once demonic royalty? Ah, doesn't matter. Arianda simply held Caly tight as she asked a question that made Ari remember quite gruesome things; likely something similar to what Caly thought of. After all, when they first met, Arianda was in one of her worst states as Mana's Chew toy. Her voice cracked momentarily as she spoke; but it faded soon. She did not wish for her voice to break now.

"Y-Yes... I completely understand, little one. After all, I left because I knew I was nothing more than a glorified pet; a chew toy for her amusement. Even if, a year later, I received an apology... I would not change my view that leaving Mana was the best thing I could have done. Her madness is intoxicating; and you getting away from it is a good idea too, Calypso."

Arianda gently pecked her daughter on the head as she wrapped her other arm around Calypso and gave her a warm embrace that likely helped push away those bad memories of how she had once found her mother. However, as Arianda fell silent, she had a good idea; one that Calypso probably was going to ask if Ari didn't offer it.

"Caly... If you do not wish to be called an Asthavon anymore; why not change your last name to Vael...? You are a Vael after all; my blood through and through. It's a big decision, but my name doesn't have the same deeds, the same meaning, tied to it that Asthavon does. Besides..."

The demon managed a small smile as she continued to hug and caress her daughter's form; once more humming as she drew Caly into her warm embrace. It was where she belonged, in Ari's mind; where she had always belonged.

"Calypso Vael has a nice ring to it, don't you think~?"

ENTER THE DREAMER

Song: My Time


"..Mana, isn't my primary concern in my decision to leave."

Calypso remained huddled close and tenderly to Arianda's flesh, such closeness fulfilling her pure, base desires. Though she felt calmness in this moment, she knew there was an awful thing that she hadn't told Arianda. She was certainly made aware of how Algos treated her from Minatumi, though she didn't know the full extent of her sister's actions on her.

Eyes shut, holding close to her, she would sigh softly before speaking, "..If I never leave the nest, others will think i'm merely a cog in the fucked up tree. Even if I care for them, I need to part ways."

She would grasp Arianda's arm softly, as she would go on, "..Mana, though she did me horribly, at the very least was reflective and remorseful... What she did was wrong, to me, to you, but at the very least she realized her error.. But Algos..."

"..Algos, hurt me, in ways that I don't believe will ever heal."

She exhaled softly - despite her experiences, she didn't appear broken or worn. She had an air of a survivor to her; even with her circumstances she managed to come out the other side, not the same, but not torn to pieces. What happened to her likely would be her scars to carry for a lifetime, but they were scars she had come to term with. It happened, and there was no going back.

"..I'll be okay. I've come to understand my pain - there is no erasing the fact that it happened.. But i'm not going to let it rule me for eons. I don't think Algos has fully grasped how wrong she was, though, in doing such things."

She gently shook her head, "..I have no idea if Ulv's influence is helping or hurting the notion, as well.. I don't think she's going to ever understand, no matter how hard I try to get it across to her."

Shifting to properly look Ari in the eye, she smiled, "..But, that's okay. I'm not going to come to her anymore. Enough indecision - what's done is done, and I can't stay with someone who is alright with harming me as a way of showing their love."

She would then press her forehead against Ari's, a gesture of affection as she would hug her mother, laughing softly, "..But yeah, I guess Calypso Vael sounds pretty good. I don't even care what the name represents - I don't think i've ever really lived up to what sin the name Asthavon carried... Maybe i've just been a Vael this entire time and.. Didn't really realize it."

A bright smile was on her face as tears ran down her cheeks, "If being a Vael means i'm a strong, kind woman like you, who's survived serious shit and managed to find some normalcy and joy afterwards, then i'd be proud to be one."

It made sense that Mana was not the reason for Calypso's leaving; it was Algos. At the mention of such things, of what Algos had done, it was impossible for Arianda to not feel a rush of pure hatred for the woman. She had known what Algos had done that day, what she had done to Ari's own daughter. However, the confirmation that she had done even more was something that set a fire in Ari. If not for the fact that Arianda wished to stay away from her, Arianda would wish to tear her apart... Not like she could anyways. Arianda listened quietly once again as Calypso spoke, silently casting aside the hate that had filled her for Algos; it was quite hard for Arianda to feel like that while she held her dear daughter in her arms.

Arianda listened on, focusing on the words Calypso was speaking; words of reassurance despite her certain pain at Algos's hand. As Arianda listened, she silently suppressed more anger on the subject of what Algos had done to Caly. However, her daughter still did reassure Ari that she would be fine; she had come to terms with her pain. However, she had decided it was best to leave the Asthavon's; to stay away from Algos. It was a smart move, frankly. Why stay near the source of pain? Distancing oneself from such things was more than healthy. However, the demon couldn't help but return the smile that was upon Caly's face as she relayed the information that she was done with Algos; and how she believes she may have been a Vael the entire time... just without knowing it.

As Arianda returned the gentle pressure of her forehead pressing against Caly's, the demon embracing Caly much like how Caly embraced her; grinning a tiny bit as her child spoke. The fact that she would be proud to be a Vael... Arianda couldn't help it as she once again echoed her daughter, tears gently running down her face. She nodded at her daughter, chuckling softly.

"Then, I'd say it's official, my dear daughter; you shall no longer be known as Calypso Asthavon. Little one, from now on, you will be Calypso Vael; my loved, amazing, daughter~"

Perhaps it was a bit much, but Arianda was overjoyed in ways words could not convey; how could she convey them? For her daughter to take her name, to likely come and even live with her; it was a huge deal to Ari. Which was why Arianda fell silent and let silent, joyous, tears roll down her cheeks as she embrace her daughter; not truly wanting to let Caly go until she wished it. Calypso Vael... Ari's daughter had finally come home.

Like Mother, Like Daughter [Private: Arianda, Calypso] 6EdIfMt



ENTER THE DREAMER

Song: My Time


Calypso nodded, smiling fondly as Ari formally accepted her as a Vael. She felt overwhelming joy and relief as they held each other, closely and lovingly. She had come up to that door fearing Ari wouldn't accept her, but to have such fears dashed and tossed to the wind was so, so comforting. To be welcomed to the woman's arms, even taking her family name, with no punishment or consequence for her actions, was comforting. She breathed a fresh breath, closing her eyes enjoying this moment of warmth.

She would spend the remainder of the day with her mother after a moment of calm and acceptance, feeling joy and happiness in such a day. It was a day she would treasure forevermore, a day of reprieve from the roaring waves of horror she had faced for the past leg of her life.

Night fell, she was in bed with her mother - a room hadn't been set up for her yet, and Arianda insisted. Her place of rest was comfortable and quiet, darkness in her eyes as the silence of the bedroom accompanied her.

"..Mom?" She would speak softly, looking to the woman next to her. She was fast asleep.

Sighing softly, Caly would lie back down, curled up as she would be left to think. Though Ari accepted her with open arms, she knew her decision wouldn't go without consequence. She sensed it - Algos' feelings, burning at the back of her mind like a brilliant star of pain and anguish. Calypso was no fool, leaving would push Algos to absolutely lose it. She remembered just fine the last time she made even the vaguest implication she 'betrayed' her love; to think Algos would be alright with her leaving would be to have no sense of danger or situational awareness.

She would come for her, and there was no stopping that eventuality.

Calypso was surprised she didn't immediately hunt her down the moment she even had an inkling towards leaving. She had no choice but to prepare herself for such a thing... Because Algos certainly would come for her at some point. Closing her eyes, the world of reality would escape her, as the thrall of dreams would roll in. However, her eyes would open to a space unknown to her, yet so familiar.

***

In the deepest reaches of the newly named Vael's mind, Pseudologoi was gritting her teeth, her form all the more diminished as she was lounging on the fields of color and wonder. Tears ran down her face as she could sense the twisted, plotting heart of her sister. A soft breath filled with regret left her lips as her hands rose to clasp her chest. This amount of weakness was not something she would show any soul, and thus she did such things alone,

"..You poor, twisted fool, Algos... How i've wounded you and left your spirit to rot into a form such as this..."

She slowly would sit up, looking off at the horizon, wind blowing through her dark locks of hair, "...But you should know, should you do such an atrocity... I believe none of us will get what we want, you damned, foolish brat, grasping for what little you can clasp as your actions merely make the rabbit hole you have fallen into deeper... A tragedy indeed."

Her small hands would place amongst the flowing grass, flowers popping to life around her as she would sigh,

"..I wonder, is there any way to save you from yourself..?"
