"No offense, but if you all couldn't find and capture her before now, I don't think you're going to find her now," Anya said. "One more hour isn't going to hurt, and we have things to do. Either way, these dogs need to go run outside unless you fancy cleaning up the mess they make."

Parker gave a final tug at his black vest he pulled on over a light blue shirt, straightening it as best as he could. Looking in the mirror, he couldn't help but feel like a kid playing dress up. The outfit was nicer than anything he had ever owned before. It didn't match the farmer's tan and simple features of his face.
But at the call to go, he had no choice but to turn away from himself and face Sol. "Better?" He asked.

Strawberry was sobbing in her room, it wasn’t her fault she wasn’t normal! She had tried to be normal she tried to behave. She couldn’t understand why they didn’t believe her.
Honey
“As I’ve told you before Strawberry isn’t normal…we love her and care for her but-“ she was swiftly cut off by her husband “She is a hermit. She ain’t left the house in three years Honey. My daughter will not be a hermit!, and in any case it’ll be good to have another boy in the house” he soon got up and left, leaving his dirty dishes on the table. “…..sorry about that Jayce…he’s just a bit frustrated with his work…” She had gotten up and grabbed the dirty dishes, washing them and putting them up. “Maybe you should hang out with Strawberry, we have a game room with about two PC setups and other gaming systems, or you could use them yourself” she smiled at Jayce and kissed his head “I know you’ve had hard times but this time I want you to relax and not hide in your room”

The more these people talked, the more Winter was sure that Tim had made a mistake sending him here. He was no stranger to foster homes that took in kids only for the praise and attention, or the support checks the government sent to help care for foster kids. He was used to the adults not caring about the foster kids, seeing them as burdens or people who should be grateful that they're allowed to stay in their homes. This, however, this was something else entirely. He had never heard parents think that their own, flesh and blood child was the mistake, the unwanted guest. In his opinion, that just made these two even worse. Yeah, he was fond of their daughter, but he was fond of their opinion of her even less.
And then there was the kiss. Now, Winter wasn't a very physical person. He didn't like people coming into his personal space bubble, especially those whom he disliked greatly. He had been in a home where one of the older kids had tried being a little too close, and he had made it clear right then and there that his space was his own. So his actions next might have been a bit dramatic, but he wanted the point across with zero room of confusion.
As soon as the woman made contact with him, Winter shoved with all his strength, not caring if she hit the table or floor or whatever. He just wanted her away. And as soon as he got space, he was up out of the chair and out of reach. "Don't touch me!" He spat, eyes bright with anger and fist clenched. He had no qualms with hitting a woman. In fact, if she couldn't respect personal space, he would do so gladly.
"I will," Anya promised. She watched the man leave before letting out a sigh. So much for staying in and spending time with her boyfriend. Closing the door, she turned to go to the kitchen to start breakfast.

"But I didn't," Parker said. "I was just wearing plain travel clothes before."

Honey
She seemed used to hitting her back on the table, not letting out a yelp or anything “I apologize Jayce…I forgot you don’t like physical touch..” She soon backed away to go clean up the living room and other rooms she kept away from him for a while
Strawberry
She had walked to her bathroom, locking herself in and grabbed a pair of scissors off the shelf nearby, she pulled a box of blackish-purple hair dye out from under the sink and she looked in the mirror she felt ashamed of herself

Seth and Aidan didn't linger outside. It had snowed overnight, leaving a blanket so deep Hero fell in and couldn't get out unless he hopped like a bunny. Even Star struggled to move through it. And of course, they'd been in such a hurry to get away from Frederick and this new problem that neither Seth nor Aidan had a coat, and Seth was still barefoot. So the four if them waited in the cave while Stel flew around and swept the snow off the cliffside. Then Seth let the dogs out again to do their business.
So while they were outsude for only a few minutes, the excursion itself took twice as long as usual. When they returned to the room, Aidan ran right for his room to put on a sweater. Star, the fur along her belly clumped with snow, followed him.
Seth was cold too, but he went to see Anya in the kitchen first. Hero trailed him, carrying on a big chunk of ice that he alternated playing with and eating.
☆~☆~☆ Sol leaned one shoulder on the door. "Parker, why do you think I'm a 'fashionista,' as you so eloquently put it?"

Winter just watched her leave without a word, his glare never fading. What did fade was his appetite. Leaving his plate of unfinished food on the table, he stalked his way back up to his room. For a moment, he contemplated calling Tim and telling him all he had learned of these people. However, he knew that it was far too early for the social Worker to pull him from the house. The minimum amount of time was two weeks. By then, Tim would be back for the first routine check up. But that felt like two week too far away.
By the time the boys returned, Anya had plated the simple breakfast of grilled cheese sandwiches onto three plates. She had hoped to make something more filling, but she knew they wouldn't have had the time for it.
Hearing the door open, she carried the plates over to the table and watched in amusement as Aidan streaked past. Then she glanced up at Seth. "That took you longer than normal. Everything alright?"

"Because you always look put together in outfits that look made together," Parker said. "Sure, on the ship you wear work clothes, but every time else, you look like this." He weaved a hand at the captain's clothes. "Fashionista might be a bit of a stretch, I'll admit, but you do have a taste in style and appearance that is better than most."

"The girlfriend in me wants to tell you not to do it," Anya admitted, "but everything else is saying you should. Not because I think she's a threat, but because I don't like the idea of her wondering about in this weather on her own. Skilled as she is, she can't have the proper equipment needed to survive in the cold for long. I don't want her getting hurt or sick or... worse. I don't think she deserves that. But I also don't think she deserves to be stuck in a cell for who knows how long."
~•~•~
"I know," Parker said, cringing at how many times he's said that, but not sure what else to say. He gave a rueful smile. "I'm just used to the idea of having a family's approval. We kind of have a, uh, tradition in my house when it comes to that, so I guess a part of me still wants to try even if it might be a fruitless effort."

She had turned her long hair to a pixie cut, turning it from its strawberry blonde to a blackberry black-purple, she had glared in the mirror and she walked out, she walked past Winter and she paused for a second, looking at him she then shook her head and walked past him to her room and she slammed the door shut, she grabbed a bag and she had packed it with few clothes she then hid the bag under her bed and went to Winters room, slamming the door open. She seemed angry but not at him…but with him “Let’s make a deal.” She said, her happier voice turned cold and icy

Winter noticed the change the girl had made. It was odd, yes, but so far everything about her had been odd. It didn't matter to him what she did with her appearance anyway. So he went to his room and found some kind of solace in the quiet.
Well, until the door slammed opened. He had just stretched out onto the bed when the door opened. Bolting upright, he saw the girl standing there, demanding deals. "No," He answered.
Anya laughed at the answer. "You know what, that sounds like a good idea. It'll be good to get outside for a bit. We'll still see if anyone wants to join," She said.

Parker, for his part, kept most of his comments to himself. Now, he had never been one to give much thought to the royal family. They lived so far away and had no clue about the smaller farms and families that actually provided the food for their kingdom. At least that was the impression the majority of Ashborne was under. So he would never have considered hin awestruck about the idea if anything to do with the palace. However, walking among the highly decorated halls, about to meet the people who rule the country, he couldn't help but be impressed by it all. Was most of it useless grandeur? Sure, but it still gave the illusion that he was in a place of importance.
He had plenty of questions, but he knew Sol wasn't a fan of the castle or things of the ruling family. So he only asked the ones that seemed to hold as little weight to the questions as he could. Mostly things of history, or layout, that nature. It was just something to help keep his nerves at bay.

“That wasn’t a question.” She had slammed the door shut and looked at him with anger “let’s both escape, soon. We both hate this place and it’ll only get worse. After that man thing checks on you then we’ll leave” she said with ice in her voice
