A place called Home

It had been two years since Dorothea had to decided to leave Mes in search of Vatar. In that small amount of time that had passed, Thea couldn't remember when she had ever felt so cared for. It was at times a bit overwhelming for her but she was working through it. She walked through the door of her the home she shared with her new found dad, and kicked her shoes off and left her backpack by the couch. Thea being Thea, went straight for the fridge before even looking around to see if her parents were home. She took the cartoon of orange juice out the fridge and quickly looked around before opening the container and drinking straight from the source. It always tasted best directly from the carton.

Thea hadn't really been home in between the time she got out of school and her curfew. Between the Divine Rights Tournament and being a general teenager, she was busy. Finally feeling a general living person she started wondering what Vatar was up to. She hadn't annoyed him a awhile, and she wanted to brag about her new found Regalia. "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD you home?"

Thea didn’t even pretend to be remorseful as she closed the fridge and continued with her beverage consuming. Therewas nothing wrong with drinking from the carton if you were gonna finish it...or not finish it. Still she was getting distracted from her purpose in life.

“I wanted to tell you about this tournament thing I entered. Also because im super excited.” School was something that Thea begrudgingly went to because she knew it was important. She understood to have freedok in life yo had to be educated. She just wished she hadn’t soent so much of her younger years training. Perhaps that’s why she was so restless.

“And freshman year is going to suck, And I think you should let me wear mini skirts. I saw this really cute plaid one that this girl was wearing. I wouldn’t have picked the color shirt she was wesring persnally...but the skirt was nice.” She paused from her rant suddently and blinked up at Vatar and waited for his answer. She already knew he was be against any sort of mini clothing but she had to try.

Thea thought about the compromise very carefully trying to find some sort of loophole in the whole thing. Since she was positive that she could find some nude leggings and get the same result, however it did open up a bunch of avenues for her wardrobe.

"I accept your terms and conditions and when we reach the summer months again, i will be back to negotiate crop tops." She was slowly trying to get him used to the stuff she wanted to wear but she knew that a lot of it was way to mature for a fourteen year old. She had to try and compromise but it was hard when she wanted something.

"Oh okay, So basically I made a pact, and I find these people who have abilities and pact with them and then we bond and I get their abilities. I have to impress them first, so i have one that allows me to build shrines and small buildings, and then one to heal, and then one to optimize health. I think Im gonna trade the heal one though because my sword sorta does that. Im still trying to bond with the shrine maiden one. I named him Timothy, well im sure he has a name but he hasn't told me so it's Timothy and he answers to it. So basically im going to get more powerful because Im amazing. Also the Regalia vary in age, personality, look, and like species appearance."

She took a deep breath at the end of her rant like explanation and waited for her dad's reaction. She technically wasn't in danger but she didn't fully understand why these people were offering her new powers and abilities. All she knew was that she wanted to be as powerful as she possibly could. She had to be strong like her father.

Thea nodded and the shrugged “There was fliers on the community board and like rumors and instructions. A bunch of people were doing it, so I said why not. Also Dalia is doing it too, and a bunch of other kids my age.” She listened to her mom talk and she had to admit that she didn’t exactly do her research.

“Yeah I’ll be carefully, I guess it is kinda of weird considering a lot of them are grown up looking. I mean I've seen some elderly ones they were just already pacted. She looked at both of them and then around the house.

“So what have you guys been up to today.” She gave her parents an innocent look before smirking “And how close am I to getting a little Thea to train in the ways of awesome.”

Thea tried to keep a straight face, really she did but uh, she cracked. The laughter that followed took her breath away and she held onto the counter to try and stay upright. She perked up about the tournament thing though, it was hard to get her father to approve of anything really, he was just so cynical at least from Thea's perspective.

"Sounds fair to me but, I want a little sibling so I can teach them the best way to annoy you." She said snickering and pouting at the same time. For awhile she was sorta worried what would happen if her new parents had another kid. She had thought they would turn on her like her previous ones, but she trusted them now. She was sooo ready to be a big sister.

She paled when her mom turned the sex conversation on to her. "Uh Ma.... hate to break this to you but, The possibility of you getting undated grandchildren from me ever.... are very very slim. Also Uh.... I haven't seen any body that are remotely attractive or maybe it's because I'm not looking. Actually now that I think about it I've never really checked anybody out." Her sentenced trailed off a the end as she started to think about the people she's interacted with so far.

"Eh, if I ever get curious Ill let you know. Pfft, dad you don't wanna give me the sex talk." She snickered, waiting for the inevitable negative answer.
