SPOILER!!: Ember

Mariel watched, smiling, as her daughter leaned down to splash her hand in the water, laughing along with her baby's contagious giggles. That was probably her favorite sound, and it was one that she very much needed to hear right now. As happy as she was to have her husband safe and recovering, it upset her to see him have to struggle so much.

She was starting to grow aware of an approaching sound and she caught a movement out of the corner of her eye, causing her to look up. What in the....? Was that woman.. singing? Spinning? Sweet Circe. This Ministry seemed to employ a bunch of weirdos. Thank Merlin her own department was sane. She'd guess this one to be from Level Four, where all the "free spirits" seemed to be drawn.

Mariel turned back to her daughter a moment, only to have her eyes snap back up as the woman loudly approached them. She looked somewhat familiar, but the brown hair threw her for a moment. "It's Mrs. De La Garza.. but you may call me Mariel." She did appreciate the manners, though she did not always require quite that much formality. Oh.. yes, she remembered this one.

"You changed my hair color," she said pointedly, her expression unamused. That was very uncool to mess with a woman's hair without permission, and the young woman should consider herself lucky that Mariel did not file a formal complaint against her. But she had been fairly certain that the woman was under some sort of influence from those psycho healers that had been here. And now she was doing the one thing that could soften Mariel, even if just a little - being kind to her daughter.

"Well.. thank you," she smiled, looking back at the 17 month old again. "This is Regina... can you say hi?" Mariel smiled bigger hearing Regina's hi in her baby voice. Her smile faded a bit when she saw what the little girl started to reach for - a lollipop - and Mariel put her hand between the two. "Thank you, but no. Hard candy is a choking hazard for children under three." And that included lollipops. She could appreciate the young woman's trying to be nice, but goodness. Regina wasn't even two yet.

IT WAS A SMALL HUMAN! Ember BEAAAAAMED and SKIPPED right over and dug in her backpack for CANDDDDDDDEEHHH! Ember's hormones were RAGING too--because lately, when she saw babies--she came home and told MITYA she was ready for one. Which, you know, was probably just Ember being INSANE. "HI THERE DARLING!" she said very cheerfully as she approached and held out a lollipop. "Oh, Mrs...." Shoot. What was her NAME??? Ember was drawing a MAJOR blank--oh dear--she blushed--and cleared her throat. "She is SO precious! SO PRECIOUS!" fhgerigheqiughiueqhgiuehg EMBER MIGHT BE DYING.
