Here's Part 1
The Akantor comes crashing back down its tusks scraping on the enclosure wall as it glares into Ferras eyes.
"You.. okay Doc?' Jeiel siddles beside him. "Or... you wanna exit too?"
Polly floats above them. "I can escort you out. " She sniggers slightly.
I Pat Grimlass on the head, "Not now. I need to deal with my guests. I'll tell stories later."
Grimlass whines like a petulant child, "NOOOooo! Me Grimlass want story now!"
I look at her sternly, "No whining or no story."
Grimlass pouts, "Me Grimlass no whiner. ME GRIMLASS QUEEN!"
I raise an eyebrow.
Grimlass bows her head, "Me Grimlass be quiet now."
I pat her head, "Good girl."
Slagatha stomps up, "Yeah Grimlass! Be quiet!"
Grimlass turns and roars at Slagatha, I simply bap the two on the nose, "No fighting either."
The two both hang their heads and speak in unison, "Sorry..."
I walk past them, "Good, behave yourselves."
I proceed towards Doc and Jeiel, "I've shown you guys all I want tp show you. Any questions before we head back up?"
Jeiel lets out a lopsided grin and shrugs. "Sure, Overlord. We've seen enough shockers for one day. Polly-miss, will you please join us?"
Polly floats on top of Rep and rests on his head. "Of course, Jeiel-chan."
"Uhh..... is it alright you're doing that?"
"Rep treats me like I'm a younger sister. No problem." She tells him in reply.
(MiNNA-san! Here it is! http://monstergirlencyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:JeielYozama/The_Queens_of_Oz_Pt._2_(Full_Color) )
"No, I think I'm good for now. Lead on," I say, standing amd brushing off my clothes, giving the bots a sideways look.
I put my hands on my pocket, "Well alright then try to get some sleep, the morning comes early tomorrow."
With a flash of summoning magic Jeiel finds himself dumped into a heap in his room and Doc and I (with Polly still on my head) appear in his.
(I'm going to assume that in the time we did all the stuff downstairs, Regina has finished bathing and is in the Ibrahim parents room dressed in a manner that preserves her modesty.)
I wave to Regina, "Oh hey Regina, Doc wanted me to be the one to tell you, so... You're a great grandma now. Congrats!"
I give a mock salute to the good doctor, "I leave the rest to you old friend!"
Polly and I disappear in a puff of smoke.
(Yeah, that's right. I assume its hours later)
Regina looks up from her book as she lays on the day bed. She looks at me with bewilderment. "What...what in the world is he talking about? GREAT grandmother? I'm not even a grandmother!" She snaps her book shut. "Just what is he implying, Thomas??"
I sight and sit, taking off my boots. "Um, well...It's probably nothing. Just Rep being Rep." My mind races, trying to think of a way to explain. I won't lie to my wife, but do I lay it all out and stir up the maelstrom that I know is going to happen?
"All right..." she says, laying down her book. "But, EXACTLY what does that mean?" She gives me the look. THE look. "Thomas, what did he show you? You look...puzzled. What's going on?"
I set my boots to the side and take off my shirt. I decide to take the plunge.
"Rep copied you and the girls' rune core and other runic stuff and did a science to it and renamed it a beast core and now he's made Golems that use it." I hang my shirt. "So he's probably alluding to the fact that there are Reptile Kingdom Golems that use your - "
"He...copied us?" She asks.
"Well, yes. Somehow. He insists it wasn't invasive..."
"He copied us." Her brow lowers.
"Your rune core specifications. Yes."
"Without us knowing."
"...Um, ahem. Yes."
She pauses for a long moment, her expression remaining the same. I think that's the end of it until she sits back down on the bed.
"Well, that's twice today. First Feli, and now this."
"...This...what, honey?" I ask cautiously.
"Maybe it's because we're Golems. I don't know. But people seem to think that they can do whatever they want and we don't care."
I scratch the back of my head. "Well, technically speaking, Gods can do whatever they want. But I don't think he meant any harm. He just wanted some research material for his project."
She scowls. "Oh, well I'm glad he found us to be suitable material!"
"Come on, that's not what I meant!"
"God or not, I still wish he would have asked." She lays down on the bed and turns over. "But I guess it doesn't matter."
I sit down on the edge of the bed. "Well, it matters to ME. Come on, hon. We're on vacation. Let's not worry about this right now. We're here to have fun and eat all day and watch the girls have the time of their lives. We can worry about this later." I lay down behind her and begin to snuggle up.
"And maybe he's given us this vacation because he feels bad for copying us."
"Um, well, I don't know about that. I kind of doubt it, actually, but I don't care."
"You're...not worried?" She asks.
"I'm more worried about the fact that I've started spooning my gorgeous wife and she hasn't jumped on me like a starving Jinko."
In the blink of an eye she is on top of me, kissing me passionately. She pulls back, leaning close. "I think I've got one over on a Jinko."
"Is that so?" I chuckle. "Why's that?"
"I've got you, don't I?" She leans in again. "Now let's see just how much of a Jinko I can be..."
(Oh,ho! Setting up the Tiger-mom with that last bit?? Sneaky...)
(Yep...I'm working up to it.)
(Dammit Doc, the MechBeasts are not copies of your family! Anyways, if all the loose ends are taken care of, I'd say the first day of the vacation can be brought to a close.)
