Alright. I'm not going to post rules or shit I'm just going to start. It's me and you Stasya!
With a bump and a slight screach the wheels of the airplane landed on the ground and slowed down. "The current time is 10:00 A.M. here in New Orleans, with the temperature at 92 degreese. I hope you enjoyed your flight and have a great time here in the bayou!" the pilot said in a cheery voice "Your baggage will be at claim 4." he told them as the flight attendents opened the doors to let people out.
"Daddy we here?" Zophie aske having sit between Stasya and Denver for the 11 hour flight. Luckily she had taken a nap seeing the left Germany at 6 a.m. for the flight and it would be 5 p.m. in Germany now. She looked at Stasya and gave a smile "Mommy I no wet!" she giggled. For the sake of the trip she had worn a pull up and told stasya every time she needed to pee but it ended with no accidents and a happy and comfortable Zophia.
"Yep, we're here now Z." Denver snickered and looked back at Chey, Demitrius and Ashleigh "Wait till everybody goes by to get our stuff out. We don't want to be rude, and wait until me and your mom get out too, the airport is huge." he told them and then gave a smile then looked down as his phone started to ring "Manda where are you meeting us?"
"Manda's picking us up? Since when was she able to drive?" Chey looked up at her brother. Miranda was Denver and Chey's (Chey is 14 by the way) neice. She had recently turned 17 and got her license. "We survived the plane ride but we won't get to grandmas." she laughed and looked at Stasya "Miranda's our neice. Apparently she's driving us. This is going to be interesting."
Denver held back his laughter and looked at his sister "Manda says F you and that you're being left here, or you're going to get beaten by her when we're home." he handed her the phone and looked at Stasya "I'm warning you now my family is very multi cultureal. We're staying at my grandma's house on my dad's side. He was black and my mom was asian, that's why Chey looks so messed up." he laughed when she hit him.

Stasya looked over at Zophia and nodded, tiredly, trying to put on a convincing smile, "Good girl, Zophie." She sighed, closing her eyes. She was restless, she wanted out of this tiny area. Stasya hated planes. She didn't have a fear of heights or flying, but she didn't do well in confined spaces, especially for extended periods of time. She was currently trying not to scream and smack the woman that took up her whole seat and half of Stasya's for complaining the whole trip about feeling airsick and how the airplane had run out of Dr. Pepper and salted peanuts before she got any. She clenched and unclenched her fists as the woman started on a new rant about how no one was letting her and her husband out. She glanced over at Denver as he said something about his niece picking them up. She nodded, vaguely listening. She rolled her eyes and held back a scoff, "Right, because I'm not tolerate of other people's cultures." Today wasn't going to be good, that was becoming obvious.
Ashleigh nodded, watching all the people leaving their seats and getting their backs. She scooted closer to Demetrius, grabbing his hand. "I don't wanna get lost," she whispered, a little afraid. "You won't let me get lost, right Dem?" For being Stasya's kid and for being so much like her, she got to have a childhood Stasya didn't. She didn't have to grow up as fast and she didn't have to put on a mask. So she still showed her fear and worry, like she was now.
Demetrius shook his head. "No way. No one gets lost on my watch," he said, smiling assuringly. He took a lot of responsibility over his siblings. Not because he had to, but because he wanted to. He knew that his sisters could be a real source of stress on their mom and he wanted to help. He wasn't like a lot of older brothers that would pick on and torture their little sisters and he didn't understand why they would want to do that. Then again, he had noticed he wasn't like a lot of kids. Most kids his age would still be in elementary school, but he had skipped two grades. He had no temper what-so-ever while his mom and sister had shorter fuses. Sometime Demetrius wondered why it was, sometime he felt like something was wrong with him, but he never brought it up... He didn't want to worry his parents, he knew he would eventually figure it out on his own.

Zophie looked at Stasya and whined slightly, she didn't want her mommy to upset with her "Mommy otay?" she then looked at the woman next to Stasya "Be tiet! Mommy no happy!" she gave an icey look to the woman and hit her. She yawned and looked around "Ge off." she told the people. Surprisingly she was being patent and waiting her turn.
Denver looked over at Stasya, not seeing what Zophie had done, and grabbed her hand and gave a small smile "Just a few more minutes." he said rubbing his thumb on the back of her hand. He could tell she wasn't in one of her best moods at the moment and hoped that it wouldn't ruin the rest of her day. He looked as the isles cleared out "Come on." He picked up Zophie and looked at Ashleigh "You won't get lost, don't worry." He looked at Demetrius and nodded "Yep."
Chey stood up and yawned "Prepaired to be hit by hot." She warned them taking off her jacket and tying it around her waist. She smiled "I can't wait for dinner tonight, she better be cooking." she looked at Denver and gave a smile.

Stasya sputtered, trying not to laugh, but then she decided she didn't give a fuck and just cracked up. She didn't care about the look the woman was giving her. "Aren't you going to do something!?" the woman barked shrilly? "Yeah, I am. Good girl, Zo," she said, still laughing at a gut tensing strength. At this point, she was a little hysterical, wiping tears streaming from her eyes. What her daughter had done shouldn't have been this funny, but she just couldn't stop laughing!
Demetrius looked at his mom and shook his head. Sometimes, she worried him... A lot. He got up, still holding Ashleigh's hand.

Denver stared having missed what happened "Stasya... are you okay?" he asked worried. Maybe they should go home by boat. He looked at Zophie who just giggled and looked at her mommy.
Zophie smiled and stood up and clapped her hands together, she had made her mother happy. That's all she wanted to do. She looked at her brother "Lady no ice." she told Demetrius, compleatly ignoring her father who was staring at the two.
Chey picked up Zophie "Come on, before you get squished." she said so the woman wouldn't hear. She couldn't help but laugh at her self.
"I no get scished!" Zophie stared at Chey and giggled not getting what the teenager meant.

Stasya snickered and nodded. "You should have seen what your daughter did, that's all." She took a deep breath and chuckled, trying not to give the upset woman a smug look. She gasped and growled angrily as the woman and her husband got up, shoving their way to the aisle to get off the plane. "The fuck you whale of a bitch! Watch it!" She made sure none of the children had been trampled, shooting an icy glare at the large woman's back.
Ashleigh looked at her mom and then Demetrius. "Mommy's gonna lose it, isn't she?" She had seen her mom in one of her fits once, but it was one of the only times it had happened since Stasya had had Demetrius.
Demetrius watched their mom and slowly shook his head. "No, she'll be okay... Right dad?" He bit his lip and looked at Denver, a little worried. He looked at Zophie, snickering a little. She was just like their mom...

"Hey Stasya chill." Dever stared at her, and sighed grabbing the kids carry on bags and handed it to each kid. He looked at Stasya "Come on."
Zophie looked at Stasya then stuck her tounge out the woman "Yous a whale!" she giggled. "Zophia stop that. That's not nice. You don't need to copy off of mommy." Denver sighed. The child copied every body, that's just how they were at that age. He picked her up and lookeed at Stasya "Get off, now." He was getting aggrivated as well. He understood Stasya was pissed but that was uncalled for, especially infront of the children. He looked back at Demetrius and Ashleigh "Come on you two." he didn't answer their question because honestly he didn't know. "Go with Chey." he said as he saw Chey was ready.

Stasya made a face at Denver. She had definitely said worse around the kids and they were used to it. Even if he was aggravated, she wasn't going to take that tone aimed at her... from her own husband. "Fuck you, Denver." She got up, grabbed her bag, and pushed her way into the people leaving the plane.
Demitrius looked at his dad and watched his mom storm off. With a quiet sigh, he tightened his grip on Ashleigh's hand and followed Chey. Things weren't looking well and they had only just started this vacation...

"Stasya stop. Please stop in front of the kids." Denver looked over at her and grabbed the overhead bags. "Demitrius, Ashleigh, do you have everything? I mean everything." He didn't want to hear about it later about how one of them lost this or that. "Stasya Zophia's baby is in the chair." He pointed to the little giraffe laying in the chair.
Cheyenne glanced over "Dem. Ash. Come with me." She walked out of the plane and stretched out her body. The Louis Armstrong International Airport. She and Denver had learned this place by heart. She and Denver had traveled twice a year to visit the family.
Austin sat in the car "Babe I know Gege told me to do this bu I'm scared. I haven't seen him in... Years..." She whispered. Austin's pale skin contrasted with her dark brown hair. Her belly was a little bit larger than usual due to the little person inside of her that wasn't expected to come our for about 5 more months. Her voice hinted at a slight Russian accent. Her home country and where she moved once she turned 18. She hated her foster family. But for all she knew her real family fell off the face of the earth. She moved back to the United States 3 years ago, when she met the man/woman sitting right next to her. "What if he hates me?! Or doesn't recognized me?" She was 16 when Katrina happened. Her parents were shot and killed. She remembered holding Cheyanne under her shirt and Denver and her under a blanket. She was holding his ears and signing to him lightly as he bawled.

Stasya stopped turned around sharply and gave Denver a look of sheer disbelief. He knew she did terribly in crowded, enclosed spaces. He also knew about her temper and general personality. Not swearing or curing people out was like shaking a bottle of baking soda and vinegar and waiting for it to explode: without that release of emotion, she was a ticking timebomb. She tightened her hands into tight fists and scoffed. "You're going to tell me, a grown ass woman, how to act around my kids?" She turned back around and stormed off to the luggage claim without another word.
Demetirus looked between his parents, sensing the storm that could easily begin a vacation from hell. He chewed on his lip and shook his head, looking at Ashleigh and Zophie before grabbing Zophie's giraffe. He gave a smile to Zophie and made the stuffed animal give his little sister a kiss. He turned and followed Cheyenne, Ashleigh's hand tightly in his to make sure she didn't get lost.
Destiny reached over to stroke her wife's hair. She knew how worried she was about seeing her brother and sister again for the first time in many years. She wished she knew what to do, but she was an only child and definitely didn't know how to relate to her situation. "It'll be fine, Austin. How could anyone hate you, baby?" She smiled and leaned over to kiss Austin on the cheek.

Denver stared at her and sighed. He was sick and tired of this behavior. He made sure that she was as comfortable as possible and even though that wasn't easy he tried his hardest. As he got off the plane he looked at her and smirked. How was she going to get around the airport if she had never been here. This was going to change soon and he was going to make sure of that. He was sick of her behavior. The girls were already starting to pick up on her behavior and sure, it's cute for a little bit, but when your 3 year old daughter is running around dropping f-bombs; it gets annoying. "Thank you Dem." Luckily for Denver, Demetrius picked up on his personality mostly. He was the older brother that Denver had always wished to have had.
Zophie giggled and grabbed the stuffed giraffe "Mine!" Cheyenne looked over and smiled "Alright Ashleigh, you win the bet." She held out a candy bar to the child. They had bet that Ashleigh could go the whole flight without picking a fight with Zophie and this actually went pretty well.
Austin took a deep breath in and nodded slowly. The anxiety kept building inside of her and she suddenly felt nauseous. She grabbed a bag and quickly dumped out the contents of whatever was inside before emptying out her stomach. She whined and tied up the bag. She hated this feeling and she didn't want to be in this position. "Dezzy..." she whispered and grabbed her water as tears fell from her face "I can't do this! I can't do this!" hit the dashboard in front of her. She was shaking and crying. She had been this way since Katrina and luckily for her she had Destiny. The most wonderful caring woman in the world. She took a few more breaths in and managed to calm herself down as much as possible. "Wheres the mouthwash?" Unfortunately for Austin, morning sickness had been a pain in the neck for her. So now they always carried around a thing of mouthwash just in case.
Meanwhile at the Comeaux household. (In case you want to know what Denver's family is like. Or if you want to play somebody.)
"Denver just texted me that they landed, Gege." Amanda looked over to the elderly African American woman. Bijou looked at her "Okay Manda." "Amanda Sue! Come help me now!" Helen peaked in the room. "Come help me now!" "Sorry mama! Yes ma'am!" Amanda stood up quickly going outside. The two white ladies unloaded groceries into the large house. The blended family was wild. Bijou was Benji's, Helen's, and Clara's mother. While Ben aas Bijou's husband. Helen was adopted after she was found in the dumpster down the street. Helen was a white child who grew up in a black family. The family was well odd seeing that Ben played football professionally. Benji had married Suah (who by the way is Rob's sister. Which is why Denver and Cheyenne went to the Sacco house.) and they adopted Austin from Russia when she was 4. Denver from a local family when he was born, and then surpirise. Little Cheyenne snuck into their lives when Suah unexpectedly got pregnant.
(It's a crappy post. But that's how Denver's family works. You can play any children for Clara or Helen. Or you can play Clara. But the family is one big melting pot. And Gege is just want they call Bijou.)

[[because i can't remember, i'm making demetrius think denver is his daddy. <3]]
Stasya wasn't afraid of the big, unfamiliar place. She was just glad to be off the small, crowded plane with her husband telling her stop acting the way she had been her whole life. That sounded like the most absurd thing in the world. She could understand his distaste for the kids swearing so much, but she grew up in that kind of surrounding so it wasn't something she thought too much about. She was just happy that not one of the kids had inherited her disorder or blackout rage. Stasya spotted a sign pointing toward the bathrooms and followed it, stepping into the women's room quickly just to get out of the slightly crowded airport.
Demetrius smiled when Denver thanked him. He knew that his mom could be a source of stress on his dad, so he tried to help out whenever he could to make things easier on both his parents. He cared about his sisters and he wanted to take care of them when their parents were in spats.
Ashleigh jumped up and down, clapping her hands with a wide grin. Not picking a fight with her baby sister had been difficult but the candy bar was so tempting and kept her on her best behavior. She proudly took the candy from her aunt and smiled happily.
Destiny pet Austin's back softly when she threw up. She slowly shook her head, "No, honey, don't say that. You can do it, and everything will be fine, I promise." She reached under the backseats of the car for the bottle of mouthwash and handed it to her wife. She felt terrible for not being able to do anything else to help her beloved. She just wished she could take away all those bad things that had happened to her and make everything better.
[[i'll jump in with a comeaux family member when i have a bit more muse.]]

((Okay! I found a picture of Chey. api.ning.com/files/mKbaZehG0U70I6992oPnZpeax8Y1JkuyBylLsspMiOJHxZYWehxdDJxxXV-kgGbkpR3aA1Kf4rKx6eigFLn7wBcwW0XbQIWu/staceydash.jpgand Austin haircuts-hairstyles.org/images/natural-long-curls-hairstyles-with-textured-hair-for-women-from-evangeline-lilly_1.jpg )) Denver stared and got off the plane when he could "Alright. We'll be meeting Manda at the baggage claim." Stasya was nowhere to be seen. Awesome. "Does anybody need to use the bathroom? We might be in the car for a while during rush hour." Zophie stared at her big sisters candy bar. Why didn't she get one? "MINE!" She tried to yank it from Ashleigh's hands. She wanted candy! She had been just as good. "No Zophie." Chey groaned and grabbed the child "I'll give you one next time." Her effort to prevent this was slowly crashing in front of her eyes. "Now!" Zophie screamed and started to cry "I want! I want!" Her little fingers kept trying to snatch it from her big sister. "Come with me Dezzy." Austin whined. She poured mouthwash into the cap and rinsed out her mouth as best as she could. Why did she even come here? Her life was perfectly fine up back home in (*insert random state that allows gay marriage here*). She could start over again and not worry about any of these people. Yet she never wanted to let go of the family she had. Sure they were quite random, but the Comeaux family was her family. She wanted this baby to be apart of the family that gave her so much.

Ashleigh thought for second before shaking her head. Another second passed and she quickly began to nod, doing a potty dance. "Daddy," she whined, reaching up to tug on the back of his shirt. She whined louder when Zohpie tried to take her candy bar, "No, mine!" Her screaming and crying made Ashleigh start in on it too, wailing, "NO, IT'S MINE! YOU CAN'T HAVE IT!"
Demetrius looked between his sisters then at his aunt Chey. He would suggest them sharing it, but knew neither of the younger ones could comprehend sharing candy, and it would probably be easier to infiltrate the white house anyway.
Destiny smiled. "Of course, Aussy. I'l be right beside you." She felt the urge to quote their vows to each other, but didn't think being cheesy was the right choice as this moment. Sincerity and support was what her partner needed and Destiny would give her exactly that.
