"They're good," Faith told Ruby. "They told us all about themselves earlier. and we don't care. It's all good."
"Oh, yeah. The girls told us of your girl's lycanthropy, but we also know that they wouldn't be with you if they weren't steady on their wolfsbane. So, of course they're welcome," Evan said.
"You know? And its still okay?" Anise was surprised.
"Sure. Why not?" Evan looked at her. "You wouldn't be living in the same house with Angus if you weren't okay. I trust him that much. It's fine. He's family, and so are you, so certainly, you're welcome."
"Thank you," Angus told Evan.
It was just a few moments later that Edward and Simone arrived, and . Edward had a bottle of top shelf spiced rum with him. He poured himself and Simone a glass of iced tea with a hearty shot of rum in it.
"Anyone else want a shot of rum in their tea?" Edward asked.
"Gladly," Nigel said. He looked at Angus. "None for you, Boy. With your pain potion, you won't wake up til next Tuesday or Wednesday."
"I didn't ask for any yet," Angus laughed.
"Yet being the operative term," Nigel said. "I'm just cutting you off at the pass."
"How do you lot like your steaks?"
"Medium Rare for us," Anise said.
"Medium for me, please," Angus said.
"Medium rare for Simone and me," Edward said, making a drink for Simone and one for Nigel.
"Rare, please," Nigel said.
"Medium rare, please," Marcus said.
"Ruby? How about you?" Evan asked.
"Dad, do we have time for frisbee?" Faith asked.
"A few minutes, Poppet. Do they even know what a frisbee is?" Evan asked.
"No, but we can learn," Anise said.
"That's the spirit," Evan laughed. "that one seems to have a bit of adventure in her soul, Angus."
"God, yes, she does," Angus said. "The girl knows almost no fear at all."
"Well, she's in the right house, then, isn't she?" Evan smiled. "You'll bring her along right, I know it."
