george felt bad for them - he did. but this wasn't what he'd expected with having someone run up to him and call him dad - merlin he wasn't even dating anyone for that to even be a possibility. "of course I know what magic is," he paused, brow furrowed as he listened to her speak. "okay - hypothetically speaking that I believe you, tell me more about you and this so-called brother of yours, who's your mum?" he asked. this was all getting confusing, first fred being back and now he's apparently got two kids?

"well, there's not many places to practice here, i can't do it in a gym, at least outside i can keep my distance." they shrugged slightly, shaking their head. "not much, i've been here a long time, but i'm trying to get zuko to agree to teach me."

"yeah, I don't think most gyms would take kindly to scorch marks everywhere," she paused for a moment, looking at them again. "wait- you know zuko?" she asked curiously.

"where?" daenys' frowned as she looked at the other. "I have never heard of that before," maybe it was somewhere in the free cities? or maybe even beyond. "I was supposed to be home, in dragonstone - my family were the only ones who escaped our original home being destroyed, I think they would be worried that I am not there,"

"i did," baela admitted as she looked at the other. "it makes no sense really, but i thought i had a whole different life that i never really had."

"that is very strange," daenys made a face as she thought for a moment. "I have heard of people losing memories before - but never like that."

"i did hear about that. i'm shocked someone was able to best samara, really." she admits, squeezing the other tightly again for a moment. "i'm... not sure how i feel, honestly. a lot more people have shown up here from our time, mother, and i'm happy about most of them, but one of them has me worried."

"I am as well, but even the best of us can be caught off guard." it was annoying - they truly did enjoy conversing with samara. "are these friends of yours?" she asked raising a brow. "what makes you worried about them? is someone causing trouble? any trouble can be dealt with easily."

"they are wonderful creatures - my husband's dragon was hundreds of years old before he died." aemma had steered clear of the dragons - while she did have targaryen blood, she had never quite bonded with a dragon of her own, but that never bothered her. "they are intelligent creatures that bond with their riders, sometimes until death," she shook her head. "no, never," aemma made a face before shaking her head. "I don't think so - I think I may stick to walking,"

"yes - I have noticed the strangeness of this place." aemma frowned at the man. "I am sorry if this is rude, but may I request that you tell me your name?" she asked. aemma was curious as too who this man was and who had married rhaenyra. she wondered if it was something that had been arranged or if had they been able to fall in love with one another, a luxury that many people do not have. "sons? you have more than one?" she asked, tears welling in her eyes once more. she looked at the boy in his arms, she could see rhaenyra in him, but also some of the man, his father. "they're here?" she asked, blinking away the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes. "would you be able to take me to them?" she asked, hoping that he would - if so much time had passed, aemma didn't want to waste any more time.

"i did. her name is moondancer." there was a sense of pride as baela spoke of her dragon. riding was one of the highlights of her life. "oh yeah? who are your husband and daughter?"

"moondancer, that's a beautiful name, my husband's dragon was called balerion." aemma smiled at the other. "my husbands name is viserys and we called our daughter rhaenyra,"

"how have you been?" ben asked. he hadn't really had many interactions with padme, but she was still family and he didn't know how close she'd been with his mom, so he'd wanted to check in on her.

things had been strange lately, to say the least. "any luck with jogging anyone's memories?" ben asked, leaning against the wall of his father's garage. he'd only briefly seen his mom and jacen, but he hadn't told them anything, not wanting to cause any distress or arguments.

"i love the support, but do you really think i could lift that thing?" she laughs a bit, though it's a strained one, forced to try and lighten the mood a little bit. though she sighs after a moment, wrapping an arm around him. "jacen will be back, ben. it's just going to take time to help him remember."

"I'm glad that we decided not to give away the twins baby stuff - it will make it a lot easier since I've built this stuff before, I can build it again." they had an extra crib - but it was good because they didn't need to buy a lot of things again. "did we decide on a colour for the walls, or are we just leaving them white and putting things up?"

he rasied a brow at the comment before rolling his eyes. "you could just call an uber, you know?" he paused. "rather than standing on the street and complaining about not having a ride home."
