Ariana's log, Chapter 140
"Love is blind because Whimsy plucked out its eyes."
Saturday, February 18, 5
Ariana finds a note addressed to her on the desk in her study one
morning, four days after Lucien agrees to divorce Angelique. It
reads:
Ariana,
I have tried to accommodate you in every way I could, and yet
still you scheme and try to push me away. In this I suppose you are a
proper woman of Chaos...truly your father's daughter. It is apparent
that there is no longer a place for me in House Vetch. Take care of
Anne-Marie...if you have any honor, you will see her innocence in our
conflict.
- Angelique
Fifteen minutes later, Ariana learns that Angelique has immolated
herself in the middle of the Court of Thelbane. Ariana is rather upset by
this and goes in search of Lucien. He's in a foul mood, though, and wants
to be left alone. Ariana keeps to herself for a while as well, then seeks
him out again and asks why Angelique did it. Lucien explains that
Anne-Marie would have become illegitimate if the divorce went through. He
offered to adopt Anne-Marie, but Angelique wouldn't hear of it. Ariana
says that if she'd known Angelique was willing to kill herself, she might
have reconsidered, and asks why Angelique didn't come to see her. Maybe
her pride wouldn't let her. Ariana mentions that Angelique sent her a
note, so Lucien asks to see it.. When Ariana hands it over, he notices
that it appears to have been read many times. He throws it into the fire
after he reads it. Ariana asks why he did that. So she won't continue
tormenting herself about it. Ariana thinks Anne-Marie is going to hate
her. That depends on what they tell her. What does he think they should
tell her? He's not sure yet, but sometimes it's best to lie. There will
be rumors, though. Ariana figures she'll look like the Queen bitch in
this, which is not how she wanted to start her time in Chaos. Lucien
thinks he'll look like the main villain, actually. While some might think
Ariana encouraged him in the direction of the divorce, he's the one who
actually filed for it. Ariana still is upset about what happened,
although she confesses she thinks Angelique intended for the note to make
her feel bad. Oh, he's sure of it. Did he think this was going to
happen? He prepared for another outcome. Ariana says she wouldn't have
pushed for the divorce if she knew this would happen. He knows. So what
happens now? The House goes into mourning, black for six months, gray for
another six. Does he think she should speak to Anne-Marie or leave her
alone? He advises waiting for Anne-Marie to come to her.
Sunday, February 19, 5 - Wednesday, March 22, 5
Surprisingly, Lucien actually seems to be upset about Angelique's
death. Ariana tries to talk to him about it, but he clams up and doesn't
want to discuss it. Ariana abides by his wishes, but tells him that if he
decides he wants to talk about it, she's there. He thanks her for that.
Ariana is also rather upset about Angelique's death, but for once she
manages not to blame herself for what happened. She is distressed by the
fact that it's upsetting Lucien, though, since she was indirectly the
cause of it. Once Lucien catches on to this, he pretends to get over
it.
Anne-Marie carefully avoids Ariana during the month after Angelique's
death. Ariana asks Lucien if Anne-Marie's been to see him. Yes. How is
she? She's very angry. At her? At a lot of people, but Ariana's on the
list, yes. He advises giving Anne-Marie more time. Ariana asks who's
taking care of Anne-Marie now, since she's not old enough to be without
some kind of guardian. One of his daughters that was still floating
around. Ariana is surprised that he would trust one of them to raise
Anne-Marie, since she was under the impression that they hated him.
Actually, they don't. It's more a mix of fear and respect, and since he's
been back, they don't know what to do with him because he's changed so
much. Ariana figures he must find that somewhat amusing. Oh yes.
Whimsy visits Ariana to set things in motion so that she'll be fertile
the night of her wedding. Ariana is able to arrange this without
difficulty.
Thursday, March 23, 5
Whimsy's bridal shower takes place. It's rather boring, until a
stripper shows up in a rainbow shimmer, along with a zither player, and
begins dancing on the table. Whimsy kicks one of the table legs and
breaks it in an effort to stop the show, but the man gracefully slides
down to the floor, picks Whimsy up and twirls her around, then puts her
down and keeps dancing. Whimsy leaves. Alexandra follows her briefly,
then returns and breaks out the liquor. The dancer proves to be quite
adept. Even Maddy, who was originally surprised, gets into watching him.
Ariana is even able to get Maddy to dance with him, after a bit of
persuading. Ariana, naturally, dances with him as well, as does
Alexandra. The party goes late into the night, and Lucien benefits from
the results when Ariana finally gets home.
Friday, March 24, 5
Ariana asks Lucien if they need to wear mourning clothes to Whimsy's
wedding. No, that would be rather tacky. A black armband will do fine.
Well, Ariana wasn't sure what the custom was, and since the last time she
wasn't familiar with custom someone set themselves on fire, well, better
safe than sorry.
Saturday, March 25, 5
Whimsy's wedding is a splendid affair, elegant thanks to Flora's
involvement. Ariana leaves Jalana in charge of the children, since she's
in the bridal party. Alexandra is the matron of honor. Elspeth, Ariana
and Maddy are the bridesmaids, wearing Empire waist gowns of green.
Enver, Despil's son, is the best man, with some Jesbys as the groomsmen.
Since the wedding is in the afternoon, Shard isn't there. Suhuy walks
Whimsy down the aisle. Whimsy pretends enthusiasm, while Edwin is
genuinely happy. Poor sap. Vincent is nowhere to be seen.
At the reception, Vincent shows up to steal the second dance with the
bride. Ariana points this out to Lucien, who comments that romance has
never been something Vetches are much good at. Ariana smiles at that and
says, "I know. Come dance with me," and leads him onto the dance floor.
Ishmael talks to Vincent after the dance is over. Then Ishmael starts
getting drinks for himself and Vincent. Ariana notices this and asks
Lucien what kind of a drunk he was when he was younger. He didn't drink
much. Oh? It didn't agree with him. She recalls the blue incident with
Laughter, doesn't she? Oh dear. Why does she ask? She points out
Vincent. Oh dear. He suggests that maybe they should leave now. They
can't, the cake hasn't been served. Ishmael disappears for a bit, leaving
Vincent alone. Vincent promptly stumbles into a chair. Ariana tells
Lucien that Vincent really is like him when he was drunk. Lucien takes
her on to the dance floor again to distract her. She spies Vincent
drawing a bit later, and comments that won't be good. Lucien says he's
not looking. Later, Ishmael takes the drawing away from Vincent. Vincent
shoots Trump energy at him, misses, and Gavin disappears. Not too long
afterward, Ariana sees Ishmael supporting Vincent as they leave the room,
along with Caine. This prompts another comment by her to Lucien about
Vincent's resemblance to him when he was drunk. Lucien pays her back for
this by introducing her to someone at the end of the dance and then
disappearing while the woman is blathering on.
Once Ariana manages to extricate herself from the conversation, she
tries Trumping Gavin, but can't get through to him. She thinks for a bit,
then Trumps Brand. He answers holding Vincent's limp body. Ah, so he's
taking care of the Vincent situation? Yes. Ariana's going to stay out of
it, since it would only embarrass him to have his mother involved, but she
is concerned about someone that Vincent made disappear. She can't reach
him via Trump. Who was it? Gavin. Brand says he'll take care of it.
Since there's still no sign of Lucien, Ariana spends some time dancing
with Foster, Driscoll and Caine. When Gavin pops in later on, Ariana
dances with him as well. She assumes that Brand found him? Oh yes.
Where was he? On a tropical island. He asks what happened. She explains
that he got hit by something meant for Ishmael. Ah, that figures. She
asks how he's been otherwise, not that his main problem's been dealt with.
Better. She understands he wasn't working for Lasker, after all. No,
but he's glad she didn't take his call that one time, since he had been
making a token effort to find her so Lasker would think he was
cooperating. He asks what happened to Lasker. Ariana is surprised that
he doesn't know. She reveals that Felix killed him. Gavin is shocked.
Ariana explains how it happened, saying that Felix intended to leave
Lasker in the 'Tween. Gavin observes that now there are demons in the
'Tween. There are? How? Someone put them there the time that all those
demons came to Amber. Ah. In that case, Felix was doubly fortunate.
Gavin agrees. Ariana asks if anyone's gone after the remaining vampires.
Not that he knows of. Ariana is surprised. Maybe he can hire someone to
deal with them. Like who? Well, her husband's house does specialize in
assassination. That could be pricey. True. Maybe he'll just encourage
Random to deal with it. Ariana agrees that would be cheaper.
Ariana eventually finds Lucien and says she's sorry for teasing him.
They dance a few more times before the party ends, at which point they
return home and Ariana makes up for all her earlier teasing.
Sunday, March 26, 5
Ariana finds out that Morgan witnessed Angelique's death, which he
describes in great and gory detail. Ariana gets very pale when he starts
talking about how long she screamed, and how long she took to die, and how
they had to scrape her remains off the ground afterward. She excuses
herself and is quietly sick. Lucien finds her, gets her some fizzy
tablets, and holds her for a bit.
A short time later, Ariana receives a Trump call from Whimsy, who
wants to come by later so Ariana can check on her. This is fine with
Ariana. Whimsy Trumps her again a few hours later and comes through.
Ariana checks on her and says that things seem fine, but implantation of
the embryo won't happen for another day. Whimsy is surprised by this,
since she thought it happened immediately. Ariana tells her to come by
tomorrow. Whimsy asks if she's all right. Ariana explains about her talk
with Morgan earlier. Whimsy hadn't heard that Angelique was dead, and
calls her a stupid cow. She comforts Ariana and points out that Angelique
just did it to hurt her. Ariana is disturbed that Angelique would hate
her enough to kill herself that horribly. Whimsy points out that maybe
she isn't dead. Ariana thinks about that, and admits that Angelique could
have split herself. Whimsy thinks it's unlikely that someone like
Angelique would have chosen such an unimaginative solution as killing
herself. Ariana admits that makes sense. Whimsy hugs her. Ariana asks
how Whimsy is doing. Whimsy explains that she tried using Granny's lust
spell, but ingested the dust instead of inhaling it. Ariana winces.
Whimsy admits the effect was much greater than she anticipated. She
figures she's going to have to find Edwin and explain later. Ariana can
see why he might be upset that his wife had to drug them to have sex,
although she understands why Whimsy did it. She figures Edwin wouldn't be
so upset if he didn't love her. She thinks the level of his devotion is
rather unusual, really, especially given how Whimsy's made no pretense of
loving him. Whimsy's noticed. She thinks it's due to a compulsion. It's
been there for a while, though, so it probably can't be removed.
Ariana finds Lucien and asks if he thinks Angelique could still be
alive. He admits that it's a possibility. Is that why he was so upset
when she died? He still doesn't want to talk about it.
Monday, March 27, 5
Whimsy returns the next day. Ariana determines that she's carrying
identical twins. What does that mean? Ariana explains how identical
twins are formed. Are they boys or girls? Ariana doesn't want to check
on that until they're more settled. She tells Whimsy to come back in a
week.
Monday, April 3, 5
Ariana checks Whimsy again. There are still only two babies, and they
are boys. Whimsy asks Ariana to be her midwife. Ariana is happy to
accept.
Friday, April 7, 5
Ariana turns 77.
Saturday, April 8, 5 - Wednesday, May 24, 5
Vincent eventually adjusts to Whimsy's marriage, his demeanor changing
from mad, to sullen, and then finally to accepting.
Whimsy's pregnancy seems to be developing more slowly than normal.
She also suffers from morning sickness. Ariana gives her some fizzy
tablets and tells her that in most women, the nausea ends with the first
trimester, although she admits that isn't always the case.
Thursday, May 25, 5
When Ariana is six months pregnant, she contacts Brand again and asks
if he has time to talk. He holds out his hand and comes through. She
asks if he can check on the baby now. He can. He'll need to touch her
abdomen to have the best chance, though. She agrees to this, once she
changes from her dress into pants and a shirt. Brand touches her abdomen,
concentrates for a bit, then says he isn't sure. There are things in the
baby that are familiar, and there are things there that are not. If Sand
is there, she's not the same. What does that mean? He doesn't know.
It's not Sand in any way that he can identify. If it is Sand, it's only
part of Sand. The rest is brand new. It's like, when she passed through
the Fount, it remade her. There's no evil in the child, no hateful
thoughts, no thoughts at all, actually. So Sand has been reincarnated?
In a sense. He notes that in Ariana, Sand will have a chance to have the
happy childhood she never had in her first life. Ariana is rather
relieved, to say the least, and thanks him for putting her mind at ease.
Brand tells her that if she ever needs anything else from him, she has
only to call, and then he Trumps out.
Ariana tells Lucien the good news. He's also rather relieved. She
asks if he thought Sand was in the baby. He admits he thought there was a
good chance. He just didn't want her to worry unnecessarily. She admits
she thought it was likely also, and was trying not to think about it. So
now can they decorate the nursery? She nods, and asks if he still likes
the name Dorian. He does. They celebrate the good news by having sex.
Lucien is remarkably attentive, in fact. Eventually, during the
afterglow, he asks what she's doing tomorrow. Nothing, why? Because
they're getting married. Needless to say, she's rather surprised to hear
this, since she thought they were already married. Not in Chaos. Why did
he marry her in Faerie then? It was her idea. No it wasn't, he suggested
it. Um... He distracts her by nibbling on her ear. She asks why he
didn't tell her about this until today. Because he knew she'd kill him.
She tells him he's right, adding that you can't just spring a wedding on
someone the night before. Can he even marry her when the House is in
mourning? That's why it's a small ceremony, only them, the Priest of the
Serpent, a few guests. The big ceremony can come later. What if she
decides she likes being single? Then he goes to plan B. What is plan B?
Oh, nothing. He attempts to distract her. This is successful for a
while, but she eventually comes back to her question. He still won't tell
her what plan B is, however. In that case, she says she won't give him an
answer. She tries using sex to get the information out of him, but while
he doesn't object, it doesn't work either.
Friday, May 26, 5
In the morning, Lucien finally gives in, hands Ariana a bathing suit,
and tells her to change. He changes into a bathing suit as well and holds
out his hand. When she takes it, he activates a Trump into Shadow and
they spend a week on a Caribbean cruise. Lucien pampers her the whole
time, feeding her chocolate, etc. Ariana admits that she likes plan B,
and the week gives her time to get used to the idea of another wedding.
She asks Lucien what the ceremony will be like, and what sort of vows
she'll have to agree to. He admits that since it's a formal Chaos
wedding, she'll have to promise to obey him. Given the church in Chaos,
this can't be modified, but he says he won't hold her to it. She decides
she can live with this. She asks why the wedding in Faerie doesn't count,
when it was valid enough to let him restart the House after it took place.
Because it was invalidated later by the fact that Angelique turned out to
have been alive when it took place. Ariana says that the Faerie ceremony
will always be their real wedding, as far as she is concerned. Lucien
responds that the ceremonies aren't important to him, as long as he has
her.
Ariana and Lucien return to Chaos with almost no time having passed.
The wedding ceremony takes place in the House chapel, with a few of the
other Dukes and Duchesses, Ariana's children, Mirelle, Devlin, Tamaryn,
and a few House Vetch members as the only guests. The ceremony goes off
without a hitch.
Saturday, May 27, 5 - Monday, July 31, 5
Ariana tells Vincent that Sand appears to be gone for good. Vincent
finds the news interesting.
Whimsy's morning sickness does not abate after her first trimester,
much to her dismay. Her pregnancy does eventually speed up and become
more normal. Ariana also realizes that the babies will most likely be
normal sized, as opposed to the small size of most faerie babies, so she
advises that Whimsy will need to be confined to bed for the last two to
three months of the pregnancy. Whimsy asks Ariana if she can arrange to
have someone there from House Vetch at the birth, in case someone tries
something. Ariana thinks she can arrange this.
Ariana asks Lucien if he can have someone there at the birth, in case
something happens. Since she'll be there as Whimsy's midwife, Lucien
insists on coming himself.
Ariana's own pregnancy progresses normally. The baby is vigorous but
healthy, and is rather fond of somersaults, at least until he gets too
big.
Tuesday, August 1, 5
Ariana's water breaks three weeks early. She sends for Lucien, who
arrives quickly. She tells him that everything seems to be normal, but
she's worried since it's happening early. He examines her, and agrees
that the baby seems to be fine. The contractions continue, and while they
are uncomfortable, they aren't nearly as bad as during her previous
labors. After an hour, she gets the urge to push. She mentions this to
Lucien, who tells her it's time. She's surprised that it's so soon. The
pain gets a little sharper, and then the baby's out. Lucien cleans him
off and hands him to her. He's small and has no hair, but otherwise
appears to be normal. Ariana has one nervous moment when the baby reaches
out and grabs the charm pendant that Meander made to detect Sand's
presence, but Lucien reassures her that it's just the grabbing reflex.
Ariana asks if he has any idea why the baby came so early. He isn't sure,
but he's checked her and the baby, and both are perfectly healthy. Then
he reminds her that she should probably Trump Jalana, who's going to be
mad that she missed the birth. Well, she didn't think it would be over
this soon. She asks why he didn't Trump Jalana. He admits that he was
worried about her, since she was so early. She says he's sweet and kisses
him, then Trumps Jalana. As expected, Jalana is miffed at not being
called, but still comes through and fusses over her new brother.
Wednesday, August 2, 5 - Thursday, August 24, 5
Ariana begins working on her shapeshifting in earnest, now that the
pregnancy no longer interferes with it. She also brings Dorian around to
Mirelle, Devlin, Kira, Grayson, his kids, and their mothers. Grayson, of
course, remains uninterested in children, his own included, and continues
to spend most of his time partying.
Friday, August 25, 5
Maddy goes into labor while Whimsy and Ariana are visiting her. She's
hugely pregnant by this point, and not at all happy with Ishmael. Ariana
blocks some of the pain, which helps. The first part of the labor is
normal, but Maddy really begins struggling later. Ariana Trumps Tamaryn
in to help, since Tamaryn's had experience with delivering large babies.
After being in labor for a little over ten hours, Maddy delivers a healthy
10 pound baby boy. Ouch. Ishmael names him Reese.
Saturday, August 26, 5 - Sunday, December 24, 5
Dorian's hair eventually grows in a reddish-brown. He seems to be a
happy baby. He's very curious, and once he starts crawling he gets into
everything. Bryan reacts to the baby by being rather clingy at first, but
he soon takes on the roll of older brother. All of Ariana's younger
children tend to run around in a child pack of sorts, along with Devlin
and Grayson's kids when they are in Amber. Briana is the ringleader of
the little group, of course.
Lucien continues to be unwilling to discuss what happened to
Angelique, and won't give any reason why. Ariana is concerned and
frustrated by this, both because she's worried that it's not healthy for
him to keep whatever he's feeling bottled up inside of him, and because
she needs to talk to someone about it herself. The matter only comes up
occasionally, however, usually when something or someone reminds her of
Angelique. Most of the time, Ariana remains happily wrapped up in her
family and her duties as Lady of the House.
Whimsy is confined to bed for the last two months of her pregnancy,
and actually looks like she might be able to carry the children to full
term. On one visit by Ariana, Maddy, and their babies, Whimsy gives Maddy
some yellow powder. It's the lust powder. Whimsy tells Maddy that one or
two grains in a drink will make her and Ishmael wild about each other.
Ariana recommends inhaling the dust instead of drinking it. Maddy tells a
rather amusing story about Ishmael. When Reese was born, she told him
that he would have to take care of weaning Clare. Apparently he tried to
do this by holding the baby under a cow and squirting milk into her mouth.
Ariana finds this very amusing.
Monday, December 25, 5
Whimsy's due date comes and goes uneventfully.
Ariana Trumps to Amber in the evening, and finds Shard in his
quarters. She tells him about the Angelique situation, and her concern
over Lucien's reaction to it. She is a bit worried that Lucien might
subconsciously be holding her partly to blame for setting off what
happened. Shard, as usual, thinks she'd be better off leaving Lucien, but
doesn't push the point. He suggests that if Lucien doesn't want to talk
about the matter, he's probably hiding something. That's not a
possibility that Ariana had thought of, but it makes sense to her,
especially since she couldn't figure out why Lucien would be bothered by
Angelique's death when she likely isn't even really dead.
Ariana returns to Vetchways and goes looking for Lucien, but he's no
longer in the Ways. He remains absent for the next couple of days.
Thursday, December 28, 5
Lucien returns in the afternoon, and Ariana finds him in his study.
He looks to be in good spirits and greets her with a smile. She notes
that he seems to be in a good mood. He admits it, and asks why she was
looking for him. Well, he did vanish unexpectedly, so she thought he
might have been avoiding her. He claims it was just a good time for him
to work on something, adding that she needn't worry about Angelique any
longer, since he's found her. Where was she? Hibernating, far out in
Shadow. Apparently she split herself before having one of her selves
commit suicide. Losing part of herself that way was probably a pretty
large shock to her system, though, and he wouldn't be surprised if she
gets Chaos cancer as a result. So, what did he do when he found her? He
brought Anne-Marie there, and explained what Angelique had done, and why.
Anne-Marie agreed to look after her mother until she wakes up. Ariana
asks if Anne-Marie won't be lonely there. Well, he left her servants and
tutors to look after her, and she seems to want the time to think. Ariana
asks what he thinks Angelique will do when she wakes up. He isn't going
to speculate. When Angelique wakes up, he'll go find out. So, if
Angelique is still alive, does this mean they aren't really married again?
No, the divorce papers were signed before the Chaos wedding took place.
So he never thought she was dead, even from the very beginning? No. Is
he going to adopt Anne-Marie? They'll discuss that later. Ariana says
she wants to go with him to see Angelique when she wakes up. Lucien
frowns at that, saying no, he doesn't think so, but they can discuss that
later too. Ariana opts not to argue about it now, and leaves him to his
paperwork.
Friday, December 29, 5
Ariana gets a Trump call in the middle of the night, when she's all
warm and cozy, the baby's asleep, and she's snuggled up to Lucien. She
mutters, "Oh hell," and reaches for her Trump deck. Lucien mutters
something unintelligible. Ariana identifies the caller as Whimsy, and
mutters, "Oh hell," again. She gets a stabbing pain as she takes the
call, which causes her to sit upright. Whimsy says that it's started.
Ariana says she'll be right there. She wakes Lucien, who wonders why
births always seem to happen at night. They dress quickly and then go to
Jesbyways, where Lucien soon disappears, as expected. Whimsy's labor
progresses normally, and painfully. After several hours, Whimsy realizes
that she forgot to tell Fiona that she's in labor. Oops. She manages,
with some difficulty, to Trump Fiona and update her. Eight hours into the
labor, Ariana sits Whimsy up and tells her to begin pushing. Fiona comes
through immediately. After a bit more time, and more pain, the first baby
is born, healthy and normal. He doesn't have pointed ears, though.
Ariana examines him and realizes that he's neither human nor faerie, nor
even half faerie like her first children, but something else entirely.
He's something new. She tells Whimsy that the baby is normal and healthy
and hands him to Fiona. The second baby comes shortly thereafter, and is
also fine. Once the afterbirth is delivered, Whimsy asks Ariana to help
her up. Ariana insists that she shouldn't move yet. Whimsy asks Fiona to
take the babies into another room and see if faerie magic works around
them. Once Fiona leaves with the twins, Whimsy asks Ariana to check to
see if faerie magic works around her now. Ariana tries a glamour, which
works. She's surprised. Whimsy isn't. She's not real happy about no
longer being a living Faerie Ward. Ariana points out that she'll be able
to use faerie magic again, though. Fiona returns with the babies and says
that faerie magic worked around them. Ariana speculates that maybe Whimsy
passed some of the Ward's energy into her children, diluting it. This is
quickly proven when Whimsy has Ariana try another glamour while the
children are present, and it doesn't work this time.
Whimsy asks Ariana how long it will be before she can walk. Ariana
offers to heal her enough to accomplish this. Whimsy allows this. Then
she Trumps Edwin and asks him to come to her rooms. When Edwin arrives,
Whimsy hands one of the babies to him and says his name is Castor. Then
she asks him to send her things to her, and Trumps out with Fiona and the
other baby. Edwin just sits there after she disappears, holding Castor
and looking sad. Ariana places a comforting hand on his shoulder, which
he touches briefly. She tells him to contact her if he needs any advice,
since she's had some experience with children, then she and Lucien return
to Vetchways. She's rather saddened by how things ended, and asks Lucien
to hold her for a while.
