He felt her shift but didn't mind much since she didn't move away from him. At her mention of humans' he glanced over his shoulder towards the door and shook his head. "They can wait- besides Jason is here- meaning his wife is here as well. We should let them get settled in before I go out. As you remember she isn't the biggest fan of us demons- or angels." he said since he ahd talked to Jason about it and heard the full reasons. "Besides-" He began before nuzzling his cheek with his nose, being cute. "It gives me more time with you." He said since he was in a good mood, a bit blood drunk perhaps but in a superior mood. ------------------------------ Lucien rolled his eyes at Michael since he figured the angel would be a pain but some how he didn't mind- he missed angelic company. Jason smiled at her when she seemed at place there in his arms. Her words were sweet, since she knew that family was important to him. Since his mother was in the hospital and his sister was off some where doing gods only knew what. He brushed the thought off and gave her a small nod before tossing his lighter to Todd who caught it. "Lets head outside, I'm sure everyone else will be in when they are ready." He said since the Pizza was still cooking so they had time. Lucien gave a nod as they started heading out. "I'll bring it out when its ready." He said more to Todd then anyone since it was more then obvious he spoiled the child.

Twila frowned softly when he spoke of Evelyn and her dislike of him. Evelyn never really talked about it, so Twila never really understood why exactly she was so afraid of Jack. He had always been so nice to her, especially since she was so close to his nephew. She even married Jason, an almost iconic replica of Jack. She didn't understand how people could fear Jack. Vamperious could be violent and mean when he was angry or hungry, but Jack was so kind beneath the fangs and demonic aura. She had the fortune of spending time with him, especially after his death where he did a lot of growing up himself...He wouldn't hurt those that were close to those he cared for or anyone he trusted. Evelyn shouldn't worry but Twila found she just wouldn't listen to her when she tried to explain that. Her smile returned when he nuzzled her cheek, finding blood drunk Jack's behavior cute, something he wasn't often as the usual one in control. "Aw, yes as much time as we can my love." She said, stroking his cheek as she looked at his rather bright smile. "I don't know how anyone could dislike you so. I will have to talk to her. Maybe she just doesn't understand how sweet you are." She said, her usual misunderstanding of people's logic shining through in that small comment. ~~~ Evelyn nodded, knowing that the topic change was better since she didn't necessarily want to talk about more immortals. She went with him and the others to the backyard, feeling a sad little pull in her chest at the memories of being by here when Colton was still alive. Twila had explained to her that he was once an eons old angel, that his real name had been Sariel, the angel of death. But she liked thinking of him as Colton, the TA that had been kind to her in her college history class and kept her from failing. He was a fun guy when he wasn't being so serious, though that was based on a persona he perhaps put on for her and Sam...She shook the thoughts off and took a seat by what would soon be the fire. Sam gave the backyard a look over before he looked to Todd. "So how have things been going with school?" He asked, making Evelyn roll her eyes. "Sam your making us sound old." She said with a bit of snicker since that was such an old parent question.

Jack rolled his eyes at her when she went in about explaining to Eve how 'harmless' he was. He tightened his grip on her and gave her another kiss with a smile before giving a content sigh. "I love you. Perhaps too much at times but You are everything I have ever wanted in and of existence." He said with a smile before shifting a bit. "Alright- Lets head out to be some what social. I made sure- if possible I can stay over during the day if you can hang around." He commented more wanting to know what she had planned for the next day since he was free for a short time to be with her carefree. They headed into the living space and looked around, thought he had an arm around Twila's waist, a bit suggestively but he didn't mind- he was drunk and would do what he pleased. He glanced over and saw Michael and Gabriel still in the kitchen, he gave a smile, obviously not his usual but in a good mood. ~~~ Todd smirked at the conversation and gave a light nod as he started up the fire. "Pretty good, I'm on honor role currently and working on college prep courses. So a break is a definite need! Lucien has been hassling me to do more classes, I swear he is obsessed with keeping me busy." He commented getting a laugh from Jason. "Yeah- Jack's about the same way, when I asked him about some stuff for my college class he practically turned into my teacher- voice and all." He said with some heavy sarcasm since he had a teacher mode to him. "Yeah he does that. I asked him once about something to do with my English class and I swear he already had read my text book- it was scary." He said with a shake of his head as Lucien came out and frowned at him as well. "He was a teacher before- I've told you this. Alright Pizza is ready and sliced." he said as he placed it on the outside table and smiled at them since he loved having others over. He did however wave over Gabriel since he was sure he was trying to be polite to the humans but he figured they could all get along just fine.

Twila gave him a beaming smile, so bright she might have lit up a whole room when he told her how much he loved her. She didn't mind, she loved him for eternity too. She knew that he knew that, so she let that comment hang in the air as she took it in for her own joy. She paused however when he told her that they needed to be social, a childish pout gracing her face. However it was short lived when he told her that he was able to stay on the mortal plane for the day, something that made her give a cheer of delight and quickly hug him. "Yay! Of course you can stay. Even if Lucian gets sassy, I know how to make him say yes." She said since her mentor had a soft spot for her and years of being with him taught her how to handle him. Besides Todd would help her right? She asked for very little and Jack was the one thing she craved more than her flowers. She got to her feet in a cheerful dispsition, practically glowing in his hold as they went down to talk to the others. She stopped in the living room first, catching Michale and Gabriel as they headed outside. "Gabe! Michael!" She grinned at the two, drawing attention to her by the pair. Gabriel looked briefly caught off guard but it was corrected with a bright smile. "Twila, my dear you look stunning. A decade has been kind to you." He said and Twila gave Gabe a small wave of her hand. "And so do you. Work with the Council suits you." Gabriel and her giggled like school girls till Michael finally addressed Jack,who was being ignored for the twittering talk between the two 'sisters'. "Jack. I'm actually impressed you're still around." He said, an almost nice thing to say to the vampire, though his half smile did show he was glad to see Jack. He wouldn't ever admit it, but he liked the twisted little bastard. Gabriel drew his attention from his talk with Twila and looked to Jack with a warm smile. "Jack, it's good to see you. Now I hate to rush things along but the others are outside, including your nephew. It's best to be social." He said and Twila gave a quick nod, since her manners were that of an angel. They were a stickler for some formality.
When the convo went from talk of school to Jack, Eve turned to her drink, downing a bit more of it. She would have to be a little buzzed to get through the evening after all with that collection. Sam noticed her unease but chalked it up to the same reason he avoided this stuff really. He had gotten the nasty bit of Twila and Jack and wasn't about to go out and stir that pot again. He was more than a little bit sure the demon would kill him and that Twila could melt him into a puddle as well. "So from teacher to demon. See I knew the education system was screwed up." He said with a half laugh, earning him a roll of the eyes from Evelyn.

Jack let her leave his arms reach when she got excited to see Gabriel and Michael. He first watched the two act like children who haven't spoken in a long while, until Michael spoke to him, drawing his attention, getting a rise out of Vamperious. He figured he could share a few moments since it was just Michael. "Like I would allow such to happen. You have to remember I'm here to make sure of that." He stated in god humor, knowing Michael figured Vamperious more capable of keeping one alive then Jack himself. It was obvious by the aura shift and she slightly different sound to his voice that it was Vamperious, though it was a little off still due to the amount of angelic blood they bad consumed. When Gabriel addresses Jack, he gave a nod in greeting before looking to Twila with a light smile. " pleasure seeing you Twila, enjoy your evening." He said before it seemed that Jack blinked a few times and his aura shifted, his posture a but more comfortable before he gave a warmer smile to GabrieL and Twila. They came outside to hear Sam commenting on his old position and the school system being corrupt. "more then you know kid." He stated sounding like he was in good humor as he leaned in and gave Twila a kiss on the cheek to show he was fine with Sam being there for now. He probably wasn't stupid enough to try anything after the war, and all that was revealed to these humans. Both angels and demons were suddenly real and they were thrown in the middle of it. He gave a nod in a fee directions in greeting, getting a nod in return from Lucien. Jason stood and gave him a hand shake before returning to an uncomfortable looking Eve but knew she would simply ignore them when possible. "Good to see you Jack, it's been a short bit." Jason said before getting a shrug from the demon. " it's only been a year or so, not too bad." He said a slight slur to his voice sounding so nonchalant. Jason rose a brow at him and smirked. "Twila, is he drunk?" E asked wondering what was with the usually so calm and in control person he knew, hell even uptight was a good verb for him. Tonight he seemed relaxed and carefree, even in a good mood, it was a nice change but weird.

Twila felt the shift in Jack's aura and demeanor after Michael's comment. Her eyes went to Jack's face that was now set into a Vamperious like smile. It was odd to him smiling actually. Seems his years of practice was finally paying off. At his kinder words towards her, she smiled back giving a little finger wave as Jack took back over. It would be odd to most to have a lover with a split personality, but Twila found it natural. There was a price after all for a demon to have a soul and an angel for a love. When Jack was back to his happy self, they went outside and greeted the humans. Well, not before Jack seemed to make a chill run over Sam. He turned pale as a sheet, taking a very obvious step back. Twila gave him a funny look, especially when that paleness turned to a confused look on his part at her. She touched her face as if to see if something was on it. However Jack's kiss to her cheek made her smile again, hugging him to show she appreciated his warmer behavior and attention. She felt a bit awkward around the humans here, since these knew her to be an immortal. The ones that didn't were always easier to talk to...she now knew why Sariel kept his identity hidden. It was much more natural to be a wolf in sheep's clothing than out in the open, constantly being watched and judged. "Hello Sam." She said cheerfully before giving Jason a bright smile. She had seen some of him because of her friendship with Evelyn, though she tried to avoid him. He looked too much like Jack and during the time they were apart she didn't like how he made her sad. She tilted her head when Jack slurred in response to Jason, her eyes going to the vampire's face. She had only seen Jack drunk once and it had been interesting to see his more laid back side. Now it seemed he was decently gone again. She could have guessed that by the way he didn't glare at Sam. She turned her attention to Jason when she was asked if Jack was drunk and she gave a small hum of thought. "Well, sorta--um a lot of blood sometimes will do that." she turned bright red like a school girl, looking away at something when the memory of his lips and hands on her brought back the emotions she had. It had been a while since she felt like that and she had to admit she was a bit addicted to the way he made her feel. "Well that was quick." Michael muttered to Gabriel, who gave a bit of shrug though seeing Twila squirm like this was a strange sight. Twila cleared her throat before continuing, looking cheerful again despite the pink in her cheeks and noticing Evelyn was avoiding looking in her direction. She knew she didn't like Jack, which bothered Twila but she couldn't rightly ruin Todd's get together over it. "Um so, anything interesting happen lately?" She asked, changing the subject in favor of that.

At the news that a lot of blood had made its way to Jack, he then noticed the bite marks on her neck when the flames flickered a little longer, noticing that she had been his meal apparently. 'At least she was willing.' he thought to himself before giving a smile to Jack," good to see you loosening up a bit old man." He said with a taunting look getting a tongue in the cheek look form Jack from calling him old. He was distracted however when Twila got flustered. He heard Gabriel and Michael comment however he didn't mind, it was natural for him to want her blood- it was natural for a vampire in general it just seemed her blood was so potent he would only take it sparingly. His eyes roamed her face to her neck and a little lower, his eyes a little lazy in a way when they were usually intent. leaning down he put his lips to her ear, his breath warm from her blood earlier as he spoke softly to her. " Thinking of something you shouldn't be in company?" He asked with a smirk on his lips knowing he was in a good teasing mood. Todd had heard her question as well as the others reactions to each other, it seemed they were uncomfortable with them being non humans. "Eh not much. School is going great and if only some one would get the bird out of the house I might have a break from studying." He said giving Lucien a teasing look of his own, making him about choke on his cup of tea. "I don't think so. If you slack so help me Todd." He said in a firm parental tone since the child was pretty much his now. Jack laughed a bit at that exchange from his place there by Twila. "You should keep up on studying Todd, it will make things easier the farther into college and school you get." He said since he had done so himself. "Life is short- why waste it." Said Jason to who on an opposite side of the argument then the other two. "you can come over to my place and play games once in a while- a little less undead influence on ya perhaps will help." He said inferring the undead as the immortals there.

When Jason teased Jack about his age, Twila felt her feather's ruffle a bit. She was older than Jack in age alone, but she was certainly still spry and young on immortal standards. Michael often teased her for her taste in hunger immortals, calling her a 'cougar' once. She had been confused at the time till one of her initiates explained the term and she nearly singed Michael's wings off. She let the ignorance of the human's slide and instead turned her attention to Jack who suddenly got close to her ear. The proximity and feel of his warmer breath on her skin made her heart beat faster as if it might flutter from her chest. She knew he got a kick out of teasing her, but she didn't mind it. She really liked having his interest on her, especially when his words were always so tempting and sweet revelations of how much she really loved him. She gave him a soft smile, taking his hand and giving it a squeeze as a subtle answer, since she was much too good to voice her thoughts in front of the poor humans. They wouldn't get it after all. No one on the outside did. The teasing of Lucien's control over Todd made Gabriel snicker and Twila give her mentor a softer smile. She knew he cared for Todd, much to her jealousy at first, but she had grown to like the boy. Lucien was only doing what he thought best, as he had done with Twila. Despite his short comings, Lucien was a good angel and a wonderful mentor. The comment from Jack made Twila's head tilt since she had never been to school. Her souls were before the time that women attended higher learning or such a thing was in place. She learned to read and write from David and never really saw much need for scholarly study. She knew Jack was different and valued his books and knowledge, something she found endearing rather than a turn off. He didn't use his knowledge against her in any way, though as a human he thought himself so brilliant, his pride astounding her at first. She knew time in Inferno had led to him growing up past those ideas, even if his scholarly nature did make him a tad bit uptight at times. She did agree that in this world education did open doors, but that didn't mean he couldn't have fun. She agreed with Jason more. Their souls were a prime example of how life could be cut short at the drop of a hat and fates plan. Best make the best of it the first go around. The goddess knew she held a certain regret that she couldn't have had a normal human life with her love, but their timelines would have never worked out that way. She had learned to be content with that knowledge, especially after talking with Evelyn about her thoughts. She had clarified a few things, especially the fact that Twila was very happy where she was now and wouldn't have traded her friends and Jack for anything. When Jason called them the undead, her eyes widened a bit. "Undead?" She asked and Evelyn gave a shrug. "It's a figure of speech Twi. Like saying immortal." Twila blinked and nodded slowly before Evelyn looked to Lucien. "You're always welcome over Todd. I'm sure you can agree Lucien that you can trust him away for a little bit?" She asked since it was always best to play to Lucien's good humor rather than peeve the old angel off. He was a good parent to Todd, something that Evelyn admired really.

Lucien was frowning but it eased a bit when Evelyn spoke eventually about trusting Todd a bit out of his sight at least with people he knew. He gave a defeated sigh, knowing he wasn't going to win that fight so he let it go. The boy had earned something so if that was what he wanted then so be it. "Fine, but only once a week." He bargained getting a wide grin from the boy who nodded in agreement. Jason gave Todd a thumbs up before giving Eve a small kiss on the cheek. She was speaking at least, he was happy for that. He wasn't going to shove her into a conversation but it was nice to reward her for little things. Jack looked over at Eve when she mentioned them being immortals instead of 'undead'. "I don't know- Angels are more immortals, we demons are more undead then most things." He commented more off hand but it was mostly true. He shrugged however and seemed almost disinterested in the current conversation knowing Eve was uncomfortable even speaking to him or being near him.

Evelyn looked happy for the kiss to her cheek, especially since Lucien saw reason and let poor little Todd out of the house for a bit. She saw Twila even looked a bit happy, though that could have been that she was content there in a group of people. Twila looked to Jack as he answered, though she did spare a look toward Evelyn. She looked tense at first but seemed to ease, she even looked at him without a look like she might bolt for the nearest exit. "I suppose. I don't know much more than what Sam talked about when he was obsessed with the occult." She said and got a look from Sam. "Hey it turned out to be true for the most part." He said before raising his drink to his lips to stifle the awkward unease he felt with Twila looking at him. She gave him a bright smile and a nod. "Yep. Hey Sam we do have a lot of Colton's books here. He had a lot of books of demonology and angels. If your interested I could loan you some?" She said which made Sam look briefly unsure. He didn't understand how Twila could have gone from one minute being a murderous angel covered in flames to being kind and sweet the next moment. It confused him and freaked his mind out a little, especially since she had nearly killed him in that war. He however swallowed hard when Twila's face fell at his silence, her look almost like a kicked puppy. It pulled at his heart strings and he instantly gave Twila a half laugh. "Y-Yeah sounds awesome." He said which made Twila give a smile before her attention turned to Gabriel who brought her a glass of wine. She took it with a small thanks before taking a sip and turning her attention to the fire. "I never thought we would be here. As a group like this. It's nice." She said aloud, knowing that the others knew that this journey was long and ended in a happy place. She was grateful for that.
