@DalenLacey You’re supposed to be the guest, *Sarah playfully chides, but she doesn’t stop him. She carries the empty serving dishes through and pops them in the sink for the time being, opting for wine first and then dishes later* wine? *she wiggles the bottle at Dalen as she takes down -
@DalenLacey *Sarah laughs* that’s like Donovan saying he won’t eat cake ever again. It’s just not going to happen. *she grins at them both, relaxed and happy to see them together again. Smiling to herself, she helps the children gather the dishes*
@DalenLacey *Sarah beams and finishes up her last mouthful, before sitting back with her wine in hand* well it keeps this hungry pack full, so I’m glad it works for you too. *she nods to Emi’s nearly empty plate and smiles at her* there’s plenty for seconds if you want any more.
@DalenLacey *Sarah smiles at Donovan* correct. Besides, we always have enough left over. This is a very hungry house to feed, so I like to make sure there’s plenty. Which means.. *she points her fork at Dalen* you are going home with some extra bolognaise to freeze.
@DalenLacey *Sarah sighs* no weapons, *she repeats, looking at Kaiden.. pausing a moment before she starts to smile* see how you get on with what uncle Dalen and your father teach you and.. we’ll go form there.
@DalenLacey *Sarah shrugs a shoulder with a smile* I’m not adverse to the idea.. Better to learn from two of the best, right? *she looks between Dalen and Donovan* as long as there’s no weapons involved, of course.
@DalenLacey *Sarah gives a small shake of her with a smile, and rests a calming hand on Donovan’s thigh. She sighs happily* this is nice. It’s been a while since we had you here, Onii-san.
@DalenLacey *Sarah shares a smile with Dalen as she scatters a spoonful of Parmesan over her food* she’s right though; it’s a lovely colour on you, Ava. That was nice of her to say. *she passes Donovan the cheese and gives him a pointed look, the corner of her lips curved up in amusement*
@DalenLacey That’s not a question we ask anyone, *Sarah adds firmly, with a purse of her lips at their son. She passes Dalen some grated cheese* How was school today, kids?
@DalenLacey *Sarah is smiling happily to herself, and starts to bring the food to the table. She’s made up two particularly large dishes of spaghetti, and another two large dishes of bolognaise. Looking over the table, she remembers the cheese, and disappears for a moment before placing it -
@DalenLacey Only if you pour me one too! *Sarah calls over her shoulder with a smile. Lifting the lid off the pan, she spoons a small taster up and holds it out for Donovan to try* if it tastes good, then dinner is ready.
@DalenLacey *Sarah unloads the cannolis into the fridge, smiling to herself* you’ll be extra glad when you see what Dalens bought for dessert, *she calls over her shoulder to Donovan*
@DalenLacey *Sarah grins and steps aside for Dalen to come in* as if the kids weren’t excited enough to see their Uncle Dalen. Or Donovan for dessert, *she adds with a giggle, taking one of the bags off him and leading him through the house* thanks for coming, Onii-san.
@DalenLacey *Sarah grins at the small smile Donovan has* We can never stay mad at him for long. *she tiptoes up to steal a kiss, before putting the lid back on the pan and heading to the door to greet Dalen*
