Meet The Parents - ~Gilding The Lilly~ Ver. Featuring Apple & Amelie

[onaroll]

Well, it's finally happened. After the Duck connected them to Moon, Amelie knew it was only a matter of time before she would go home and introduce her wife to her parents. She is a little worried about how it's going to go, however - from her perspective, it's been three years since she saw them; from their perspective, it's been a little over a month.

She's pretty sure there aren't many good scenarios where a sixteen year old girl drops out of society for a month and then returns married. However: there's nothing to it but to do it, because there is not a single part of her life Apple isn't a part of. As she throws open the door to her old house, she calls out in a voice she wants to be cheerful but isn't quite up to snuff.

"I'm home, Mama! Can you set an extra place for dinner? I bought company!"

“Ah, Megumin’s another friend of ours...she’s a little strange, but a good kid.”

Amelie’s underselling it.

[cidery]

Underselling it is right, Megumin is a very strange kid.

"Still, we should probably all figure out where to go for dinner then," said Apple.

Amelie hums thoughtfully.

“Ah...I like Le Wow, but...”

Amelie glances up from beneath her lashes, looking almost shy.

“Could I...could I show you my favorite cafe?”

There’s a pause as Grace reaches out, a tender smile on her face...and gives Amelie a light cuff to the back of the head.

“That’s all we ever wanted, you silly Swanna. Don’t try to impress us with expensive places. Just take us somewhere you’re happy. Honestly, where did you pick up that bad habit...”

[cidery]

"I'd be happy with your favorite place too," said Apple with a little impish grin. "You should be happy with everything you do, you know?"
