Kat brought up her hands to feel where the bow had gone and smiled over the fact it was there. The way Ang described it she liked and she slid off Dante's lap so she could take off to the kitchen when Angel did.

"Sounds like a plan to me. Come on guys."

Getting up and starting to the kitchen, he only stopped a step as Angel ran ahead of him and Kat was quick to follow just a few steps behind. Before he went into the kitchen though he stopped and glanced back at Harm to say it one more time before he went to get breakfast started.

"Merry Christmas, Panther."

Harm got up as the girls and Dante headed into the kitchen, but when Dante turned to say something else to her, Harm paused in picking up one of the boys, a softer smile flickering over her face as she responded, "Merry Christmas, Hermit."

Once he headed into the kitchen to make breakfast, Harm took the boys upstairs and fed them, putting them down after for their usual morning nap. She then went back downstairs to eat the waffles that they had made, and after all of that, Harm sent out an owl to the Morvannas before they all went out to play in the snow.

Rose had actually attempted to get Gryphin to go but he didn't want to. She assumed it was because he wouldn't have been comfortable around everyone, so she didn't push the argument. Instead she had made sure her makeup covered the still present paleness of her skin and any other unwanted faults thanks to Sam screwing up her medicine. If she felt fine she was fine as far as she was concerned.

With Charlotte wrapped up in a blanket in her arms, she had Lucas hold onto her jacket. Apparently he was on about boys not holding girls hands or something, and being his mother made her not an exception. She had no idea what new phase that was, but shrugged it off. Boys will be boys right? Expected too was the fact Lucas was already running off once they were in the main room and yelling for Angel.

"Lucas, what did I say?" Little boys didn't care for manners though as she was finding out. Shaking her head she didn't bother to stop him because he wasn't listening. Instead she made it a sing-song voice as, "Harm-o-nyyy."

Harm had been upstairs trying to help Angel figure out where Kitty hid - she really, really was good at that, and had just found her underneath the laundry Harm'd brought up just minutes previous to looking for her thanks to a little revealing spell. At the sound of someone coming into the house though, and hearing Lucas' voice calling for Ang, Harm started down the stairs, telling the little boy, "She's in their room." as he passed her.

Knowing that Rose had shown up though, Harm hurried, excited to see the newest addition to the Morvanna family. First, she hugged Rose though, who looked slightly drawn to her. Harm didn't ask about it though, only because she figured if something was up - and Dante had been hinting pretty heavily - then she would be finding out.

"Ro-ose." She responded with a grin, turning her attention to the little bundle in her sister-in-law's arms. "Oh she's gorgeous." Harm said, touching Charlie's little nose gently before apologizing, "I am so, so sorry for not being there like I promised. I don't know what Dante's told you but I would have been there if I could. How are you?"

Rose smiled and hugged Harm in return before she adjusted Charlie in her arms for Harm to see her better. She was awake for now but however long that would last it was hard to say.

"Charlotte Grace Morvanna. Charlie is the acquired nickname. Me and Phin had a second middle name but it was getting too long. Do you want to hold her?"


There was no issue of trust at all with Harm. Harm had kids of her own anyways and she was family. At the apologies she shook her head.

"No no it's fine, really. There was a lot of other people there so it's alright. I didn't take it personally," Rose explained. "I'm good. It's...well there's a lot to catch up on isn't there?"

"Charlie. I like it." Harm responded, curiously glancing up at the Me and Phin part. Yes, she knew they had been together, and yes, she was aware that Charlie was his, but she didn't know just how far their relationship had re-progressed.

However, she was slightly distracted by the offer to hold her, and Harm grinned, holding out her arms. The boys were already getting so big that it wasn't even a glimpse of holding a newborn anymore. More like lugging weights. She was going to have well defined arms by the time they didn't want to be held any longer.

"Hi sweetie..." Harm cooed quietly once she had Charlie in her arms and looking at her. Harm was glad to hear that she was fine, and then nodded as Rose said there was a lot to catch up on. "We haven't gotten together as a group in a while and that's...odd. Merry Christmas, by the way, belatedly."

Rose carefully handed Charlie to Harm, smiling at the two as Harm talked to her. Lucas was actually doing fairly well with the idea of having a baby sister except for a few here and there problems, but any problems were expected for a bit.

"Its been too long," she agreed. "Merry Christmas. I hope you guys had a good one. I know Escape was total chaos with all the kids. Most of them were hyped up from candy canes or cookies."

She laughed at the memory of that. That had been amusing attempting to get them all to settle later.

"Well I know I can fill you in at least on what's been going on with me," Rose told her as she shrugged her shoulder's. "Like me and Phin are back together. We're supposed to have a actual wedding this time around, but we haven't really discussed it. Besides that and having Charlie there hasn't been a whole lot happening on my end of things."

Harm nodded, practically beaming as she filled in, "It was a great one, honestly. Dante's taking me to Paris! Though...I guess you already knew that since he said he'd asked you guys to take care of our kids...which, I really appreciate by the way. I know there's a lot of them and I know they're a handful but they love hanging out with your guys' kids so hopefully it won't be too much of an inconvenience."

Hearing about all the kids at Escape just made her smile. She could imagine in. Hell, those kids get into anything with sugar and there was no calm for hours and hours.

And then, before she even had to ask, Harm was told that Rose and Phin were back to getting married, and her eyebrows raised slightly, asking first, "Are you happy?"

There had been some hardship with all of that, but as long as Rose was happy, Harm could be excited for another Morvanna wedding. Except for the fact it wouldn't be Morvanna anymore...

"Hey, it's no problem at all. I know I'm staying at Phin's but we're going to stay at Escape so I can help out and all the kids stay together. I like having them all around like that."

Plus it gave the kids a lot of others to play with. Actually now that she thought about it,

"Brad got this huge play area thing for Escape. Ang and Kat will love it. And before you ask, you'll get to know who Brad is soon enough."

At Harm's question she nodded. That was an easy one to answer.

"Yeah. It was just some misunderstandings before, and we both needed our space. But we got it straightened out."

Something about this just said 'bad idea' to her, but alright. Thing was she was a bit behind as Rose had gone ahead while Beth searched for Alex's missing shoe. She didn't even think it was missing because he was prone to hiding things for the amusement of it.

"Sorry for being so slow. Alex hid his shoe in the laundry and it was the last place I would have thought to find it," Beth explained after apparating straight into the main room; She had either of the boys' hands, but they both went for the stairs after saying a a quick 'hi' to Harm. Having that moment to actually catch her breath she smiled as she looked at Rose first and then at Harm. "Hi."

Harm nodded as Rose said that she didn't mind taking care of them at all. Actually, Harm was a little amused. All the kids seemed to be so close already. Obviously the boys and Ang had grown up together, so where as Ang and Alex were more like siblings (they argued a fair amount but always made up pretty fast), and Ang and Ed were more like really great friends, now they had Lucas and Emma (though Emma had been around less and less lately), and all the babies were going to grow up together as well...

It was going to be a close-knit bunch and Harm was glad for that.

Rose seemed to know what Harm's next question was, her already having opened her mouth to ask who Brad was only to be told she would be finding out. Well then.

"Well good. Where's he? He knows he's welcome here?" Ang had broken down into tears that morning finding out they didn't have any more paper for the boys and her to draw on later so Dante had run out to get more; Harm was expecting him to be back soon. Then Ella and the boys arrived, and she told them the same as Lucas, only adding, "The girls and Lucas are in Ang and Kat's room."

She figured once they'd all said their immediately hi's then the adults would be seeing them run around soon enough, but for then she was fine with them all disappearing upstairs, given they stayed in one place.

Immediately after she turned to hug Ella too, asking, "Hey Els. Where's Juliette?" It just seemed a little odd to her that the boys would come but not the baby.

"With Els," Rose answered. "I'm sure he knows."

Which that would stir up more questions no? Well when it came to explanations it was better to get it all out. When Beth showed up, seeing as she knew by sight now thank merlin, the smile was more amused. Well, this would be good. She watched the boys run off, Edward trying to get the lead. Sitting down at the chair she figured Harm was fine with Charlie. It gave her arms a break anyways.

Tough questions right off the bat. Only reason she was unsure was because she wasn't sure if Ella wanted to say it too, but hey if she had to answer and she wasn't there then tough.

"I'm not who you think I am," Beth told Harm. "But Juliette is with Ella and I'm sure she'll be here soon."

Anyone would probably think it was a practical joke or something. She didn't blame those people either.

"Someone should have given you some forewarning."

'With Els'.

Uhm, no...Harm looked again to see if there was a baby carrier sitting on the ground somewhere she hadn't noticed, but there was nothing and so she was sufficiently confused.

That confusion only grew stronger as she sat down across from Rose, still careful not to jostle Charlie, and stared at the person she...could swear was Ella. Except for she was telling not. It looked just like Ella, and now she was kind of realizing what Dante meant by 'seeing double'.

Yeah, ha ha.

It still made no sense.

"So if you aren't Ella, then who are you?"
She asked, her tone slightly sharper. The woman had come in with the twins, obviously, and Rose clearly knew who it was but...it...looked like Ella. And as far as she knew...

Oh hell, she had no idea.

"Sorry. It probably would have been easier with Ella here, but apparently her...acquaintance-" Way to almost let the cat out of the bag on that one. "is needing to be persuaded to come."

Or she assumed that was it. How was she supposed to know? Seeing that Rose was not helping any and was only watching, probably for the amusement, she was left to herself with explaining.

"Bethany Wright," she introduced politely. "The short version? David told Liz I was dead and gave me up and has been paying my adoptive mother every month to shut her up. I guess twins run in the family." With a grin she added, "Surprise?"

She shot Rose a look for her one worded comment of 'eloquent'.

"Do you know how many stores don't have paper? It's like they ran out of trees or something."

Dante came in with a couple things of paper in hand, but stopped when he noted who exactly was in the room.

"Well, this is awkward."

Which it sort of was. Waving the paper for a minute he went upstairs to give it to the kids so they could draw again and then he went back downstairs. Sitting down next to Harm he glanced at Charlie since he hadn't really seen her except for a few minutes before, before he directed his attention at the adults.

"Are we all getting along? Or am I going to have to call a time-out?" he tried to joke.

"People probably bought it all to go with artsy Christmas presents." Harm suggested, though distractedly as she processed the fact that the girl in front of her, who looked just, like Ella, was claiming to be her twin. And they trusted her, and they knew about it.

She wasn't sure what to say.

It did sound like a David thing to do, and twins did seem to run in the family given Ella's and now her own.

"If he's been paying to have your mother to be quiet, how do you know and why are you here now?" Instead of ten years ago, or ten years in the future. Dante was joking around, but Harm was still trying to wrap her head around it.

"Ella's on her way, you said?"
She confirmed, turning her attention back to Charlie.

Apparating into the room was interesting to say the least. She spotted Rose, Beth, Dante and Harm and assumed that at least some news had already gotten told. Well, she was right when she guessed this visit would be an interesting one. Letting go of Brad's hand she walked over to hug Harm as best she could as she had Charlie and Els had Juliette.

"Hey Harm."

Glancing at Beth she saw her just shrug her shoulder's which no doubt meant she had to let Harm know. Between that option and pretending to not be herself? The first sounded better as far as Ella saw it.

"I guess....a good question would be 'where to start'?"

Harm probably didn't find this all amusing at all whereas Ella thought it was just a little. Maybe they should have caught up sooner, but that probably wouldn't have avoided all the mess. Maybe Brad found the amusement in the situation like she did which she glanced him.

Nausea was not a very nice thing to experience but apparating did just that it also made him a bit dizzy but he was able to compose himself in less than two seconds, afterwards he was grinning and waving at everybody in the room. And it really was almost everybody there. The evil twin, the psycho killer, the genius mastermind, and a person he guessed had to be Harm. He briefly wondered what that was short for...if it was short for anything at all. It wouldn't surprise him if that was a nickname given because she herself caused harm. . .that would be amusing. All they needed now was the blonde silent one and it would be a full house.

Once Ella pulled away from hugging Harm (who may or may not cause harm herself) Brad stepped forward and extended his hand in greeting, "Bradley Cox but call me Brad. . .please." he added the last part in with a small grin, trying to be friendly and not creepy. Which, was turning out to be a difficult task actually. "I'm. . ." there really was no point trying to sugarcoat or beat around the bush so he just said it out loud, "Ella's husband."

Harm stood as Ella and what she could only presume was her 'acquaintance'. She managed to hug her back, but then she gave Charlie back to Rose to meet the last installment of the group.

"Where to start is a good question, but I suppose you all can begin with when this all started happening." Since, clearly it wasn't a new thing. She was the only one surprised about it. She was slightly intrigued however, and shook Brad's had back as he introduced himself.

And stopped.

And stared.

And then let out a short breath and responded, "Harmony Morvanna, obviously they all call me Harm. I'll presume you've already been warned?" The eyebrow went up slightly, and then she turned to Ella, "How long?"

To be honest? This was all a little overwhelming and she felt slightly hurt that her best friend had gotten married, and found a twin, and Harm was just now being clobbered with it all. Either way, it had not been a great end of the year for the Morvannas to be honest, and she could only hope it'd get better for the new year.

"Just...tell me in sequence. Both of...these...things. Please."

Bloody hell, married?
