Puff poked his head back inside his family's wing of the manor, gesturing for the little teen next to him to follow. It was rather early in the morning, or at least, early for most people on a Saturday. Puff was used to getting up early though, the sun was always nice even if he couldn't stand a lot of it. It seemed that no one was up yet though, another good thing, he wasn't all that sure how much his parents would appreciate he and Hana being out all night...
But he had been struck by a sudden case of the midnight munchies, and it had called him out of the house. He woke up Hana to see if she wanted to come with him, and she had... Luckily he had been a neat eater, and only some blood around his mouth and some dried blood on his hands remained. He hadn't been able to see his sister's face though... Oh well, they'd just wash up in the kitchen or the bathroom.

Hana followed Big Brother, careful not to make too much noise so Mommy and Daddy wouldn't hear them coming in. He had woken her up to see if she wanted to go with him to get a little snack, so of course she decided to go with him! She'd admit, in all her years, she never once considered cannibalism. It was just something that never crossed her mind, surprisingly enough. It was... different, but certainly something she could get use to, she just needed to be a neater eater like her brother. Her lips looked like she had tried and failed to put on some lipstick, and some of the ends of her hair had dried blood, she'd consider a pony tail next time around. She was just thankful that her gloves were a pretty close color to the blood so that it wouldn't stick out as much.
Hotaru had gotten up by herself that morning. She had had some sort of dream. It wasn't a nightmare exactly, but it wasn't pleasant either, just odd. There were people, and for a second she could have sworn she knew them, but with their faces smudged out it was too hard to know for sure. Then there was that sound, music. It was a piano, she could tell right off the bat for some reason, and she felt herself entranced by the music it played, she wasn't sure why though. She didn't play piano, did she? She should ask Archer later, he could tell her.

Archer yawned then sat up and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. He heard some walking in the hallways and figured he'd get up. With bleary eyes he stuck his head out his door and called down the hall. "Take a shower kids!" He knew they'd been out last night and knowing the two of them... well they'd probably be in need of a shower. "No hanging out with Mommy till you've bathed." he added satisfied. He closed his door again and decided to take his own advice. He didn't have to worry about Hotaru since her little 'change'. If she was awake then she'd probably make her way to get food herself or something. The Kuma stumbled his way to the bathroom and set to work on waking up.

Puff blinked and smiled as he heard Daddy's voice calling to them. "Okay Daddy!" He called out, before turning to Hana. "You go first, you've got more blood on you anyways." And in her hair too. Puff could probably just wipe off his face and be fine until the bathroom was free. "Oh!" He blinked, remembering something. "And brush your teeth too. Really well." Big brother had given him that advice a long time ago. Morkez had taken his little brother being a cannibal a bit better than one would usually, and had helped Puff avoid getting caught when he was younger... It was useful advice, so it was worth passing on to Hana.

Hana nodded at Puff, taking his advice. "Okay~!" she sang before skipping off to bathe. She had to clean up really really good, or else she couldn't play with Mommy, and she was just starting to get really fun to be around! Whatever Daddy had done to her, Hana was thrilled, now Mommy wouldn't be fighting everything and would actually wanna be with them!
Hotaru walked out of her room after getting cleaned up herself, deciding it would probably be time for breakfast pretty soon. She made her way down to the kitchen, looking around for something she could eat. After deciding she wasn't really in the mood to try cooking, she just settled for something simple, toast. She got a glass of milk out and set it beside her food for the morning once it was finished, sitting in front of it and beginning to nibble a little. She wondered where everyone was...

Archer was tugging on his shirt as he came down the stairs. He had his towel wrapped around his neck and was using it to dry his hair as he walked. He walked in the kitchen and smiled at Hotaru who had made herself something for breakfast. He was quite proud of the change in Hotaru that he'd brought about. He walked up to her side and kissed her temple quickly before heading to the fridge to find some breakfast. "Just toast?" he commented teasingly. He pulled out some chocolate milk and poured himself a glass. He settled on a bowl of cereal and poured the chocolate cereal in a bowl followed by milk. "You ready to see the kids?" he asked raising his eyebrows and smiling. "Pre-warning in case you don't remember, Puff is actually much older but he has the mind of a child."

Hotaru had kind of drifted off into space and was a little startled with Archer. She laughed a little, trying hard not to blush. When he asked if she was ready for the kids she nodded her head, swallowing her food before she spoke. "'Course I'm ready," she replied happily. She blinked when he brought up Puff. "Oh... yeah, that's right! I remember now." she could have smacked herself for forgetting, that hit in the head must have been pretty bad after all, if only she could just find where she had hit it at!
Hana was out of the shower, deciding to change into another dress, this time a green one with long sleeves, along with her normal leggings(she didn't want Mommy seeing all her scars just yet, she wasn't too sure if that would be a bad thing or not for the moment). All the blood was gone and her hair was just a little damp at this point as she skipped into the kitchen.
The little girl looked over at Hotaru, she looked happy! That was always good! "Moooorrnin'~" she sang as she looked over at her parents. Her first reaction was to go hug Mommy and see what she would do, she was more than a little curious. "Mommy~" she giggled as she hugged the redhead.
Hotaru looked down at Hana for a short second as she was hugged, returning the hug shortly after. "Good morning, Princess." she replied with a smile. Well, here was her daughter... what about her son? Maybe he was taking a shower too, like everyone else seemed to have. Oh well, he'd be down shortly and she'd get to see him.

Puff got out of the shower only a few minutes after entering it. He didn't have to wash up too much anyway. Drying off was a simple matter for everything except his white mane of hair, so he put it in a ponytail to deal with later. He didn't like water much, and while he didn't want a few stray drops of the liquid dripping down his back waiting for it to dry or blow drying it would take FAR too long.
He donned some more casual wear, a t-shirt, a light blue sweatshirt, and a pair of pants, and headed for the kitchen as quickly as he could. He poked his head in this time, not wanting to freak Mommy out like he had the time before. A good decision, it looked like Hana was hugging her, he would have squished them both had he tried to tackle Mommy.

Archer chuckled and continued eating his cereal. "Short stuff! Share Mommy, Puff's waiting." he said winking to the little girl and nodding at the door where Puff was peeking around the corner. "Oh and where's my hug?" he asked teasingly with an amused grin.
"Puff, you're okay to come in. Be gentle." he called with a slight warning in his voice. Didn't want to overwhelm the new Hotaru. He set his bowl aside and held out his arm for the green dressed little girl.

Both girls looked up and saw Puff peeking into the kitchen. Hana simply giggled and let go of Mommy, running over to Daddy to hug him tight. The little girl whispered to him quietly enough to where Mommy wouldn't hear her. "Good job, whatever you did." She loved how the redhead was acting now!
Hotaru smiled, blissfully unaware of her daughter and Archer at the moment. She held her arms out to Puff, tilting her head a little to the side. "C'mon, give Mommy a hug." she insisted. Wow, her son really WAS older, why was he one of the kids? Must be his personality she guessed, he looked so adorable either way.

Puff's face split into a huge smile and he dove for his Mommy, "Mommy!" He cheered, managing to keep the impact light. After all, he didn't want to hurt his Mommy now that she was acting so nice to them all. She had changed quite a bit, and he'd bet good money that Daddy had something to do with it. Not that he was complaining! He liked Mommy this way. He hugged her tight, but not too tight, beaming in childish delight.

Archer hugged Hana back and simply winked. He knew they'd be happy. They now had a cooperating Mommy. The delight on their faces was priceless. He had to admit that he liked new Mommy a lot more than old Mommy. Oh how he loved his job.
Archer chuckled at Puff's extravagant reaction and was glad that he hadn't knocked the two of them on the ground with his hug. He cleaned out his bowl and looked at the three of them. NOW they were more like a family. "So, what's the plan for the day you guys?" he asked looking at the three of them.

Hana sat on a near by stool after letting go of Daddy, kicking her legs back and forth. "Hmmm..." she wondered aloud. What was fun to do right about now?
Hotaru hugged Puff a little longer since he had hugged her so tightly, letting go after a few moments. "Oh!" she exclaimed, looking at the two kids. "You two need breakfast before we do anything, you must be hungry." If she was the mommy she had to look out for them right? That meant cooking and stuff like that.
The little brunette shook her head, giggling a little. "We got up early and ate Mommy, it's okay~" Well she wasn't lying, she just... wouldn't go into detail about what exactly they ate. Mommy didn't have to know about all of that, it would scare her and possibly bring back the old Mommy(or even worse), and there was NO WAY she was gonna let that happen after working this hard to get her after all. She hoped Puff would know this without having to be told or something, it would be easier that way.

Puff sat down on a stool when Mommy released him from the hug, nodding along to Hana's story. He might act like a child, but he was really very bright and didn't need to be told about the plan to know it was going on. "Yeah, I took Hana to the Wok for breakfast." Well... it HAD been a Wok employee on the night shift... so it was still technically true...
"And I'm good with whatever Mommy wants to do today." He figured it was best to let her take control for now, the more comfortable she was, the less likely that... whatever Daddy had done to her would wear off or be broken.

Archer nodded looking at the two kids. He wasn't exactly sure if even HE wanted to know what they had for breakfast. There was no telling... He was glad they omitted that information. He leaned against the counter and looked at Hotaru, "So my dear, what will it be?" he asked with a smile.
