Killian laughed at his sister's teasing. "Yeah, yeah, you caught me. But you know me, I always root for the underdog." This was of course talking about Azzy. He was younger than his mate but he had seen the tension between azzy and shadow growing up. He took a sip from his own drink, savoring the taste of the rich ale he had brewed earlier. "As for me, nothing much has changed. Just brewing, brewing, and more brewing. But I'm happy with how things are going. The new batch I made last week turned out really well, and I'm already thinking of new recipes to try." He leaned back in his chair, looking around the cabin room. "It's good to be back, though. Seeing all these familiar faces, catching up with old friends... it feels like I've come home. And who knows, maybe I'll even find someone special here." he added quickly, with a smirk. "But you never know what fate has in store for us, right?" He raised his glass to his sister in return. "Here's to good company, good drinks, and whatever the future holds." But he was curious about what his sister had been up to all this time out at New Rome. "So sis, what have you been up to all this time? What brings you back?"

As Killian listened to Willow's concerns, he couldn't help but feel a slight pang in his chest. He knew his past behavior had given her every reason to be wary of him, but he couldn't deny the way he felt about her. He wanted to prove to her that he was capable of changing, that he could be the person she needed him to be. "I promise, Willow, I won't do anything to make you uncomfortable," he reassured her, hoping his words would help ease her worries. The sight of her soft smile and her agreement to join him on the sleigh ride made Killian's heart swell with happiness. He couldn't remember the last time he had felt this excited about spending time with someone. It was as if every moment with Willow was a new adventure he couldn't wait to embark on. "Thank you, Willow. I promise you'll enjoy it," he said, his own smile mirroring hers. As Killian led the way, he couldn't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to share this experience with Willow. He was determined to make this sleigh ride memorable, hoping it would bring them closer and help Willow see that he was sincere in his feelings for her. He knew he had a long way to go to earn her trust, but he was willing to do whatever it took. As they approached the sleighs, Killian's heart raced with anticipation, excited for the chance to create new memories with Willow by his side.

Killian had always looked up to Viv as she was so cool to him. He would ask her advice and even picked up some of her habits. Maybe some of them were not the best but he couldn't help that. It wasn't like they had a camp therapist to talk to to get advice on their parental trauma or even bad habits that help take the pain away. "Woah there sis, take it easy" he laughed as he hadn't been around her in some time. She was always one to try and keep up with that was for sure. "Ohhhhh yeah I can do that if ya wants" he said in his irish accent. A bit of pride had come over him as he stood a wee bit taller than he normally did. Well the gossip was one that was flying around camp. "Welllllllll I guess it all started when a lot of us came back to camp, like Lilythe.....then Azrael showed up........" stroking his beard he was thinking about when all that happened. "At first it was awkward as their last encounter was not the best but they seemed to patch things up and it was good." Thinking to right before captured the flag "Then Shadow showed up saying he wanted to be just friends.....VIV" he said a bit strongly "I don't know if that is true." It was too much to go into all that happened in Capture the flag, it was like old times once again as the boys seemed to be getting into it all.

Killian stiffened a bit as she looked at the bag, would she know this is for her? But all that came crashing down when she had said it was for Ash. I mean he loved Ash but this was not for her. "Not really for her ....no....but for someone else just as talented in music" he said scratching his head while going a bit red. "Her gift is back in the cabin" he finished saying hoping maybe she would maybe get the hint. Seeing that he took had some kind of ability to make the Lady Willow blush made him laugh with a huge smirk on his face. "Think what my lady?" he probed her with the question as she had done everything in her power to keep him at arm's length. Happy to see that she indeed kept the money made him feel like a small victory had been won. Willow was a wonderful musician that she deserved it without a doubt in his mind. Plus if she was out here working for it, then she must need it for something good. "Ohhhhh nooooo its just the Holiday Cheer he said....you know like the big man with rosy cheeks and red outfit" he joked with her as her hand week down from his cheek. The touch of her skin on his felt nice that he wished she hadn't taken it away so soon. Pointing over to the park which was not to far from there. "There is a sleigh ride I thought it might be fun to do" he said hoping that she would indeed join him. There was of course a high chance she would say no and go away but he had to take his chance!

It was good to see Viv again after all this time. They say you were never supposed to have favorites for your siblings but Viv was his! Getting hugged he laughed as his arms squeezed her back. But trying not to dropped his drinks but his sister made that a tad bit hard. "I am grown up...I will even be twenty one in the next month" he said standing tall trying to looked all strong and such. She was of course like five years older than he but he had always tried to hang out with his sister when she was here. Killian had looked up to her for a very long time now. Blushing when the word girlfriend came out of his sisters mouth "Oh she is not my girlfriend........yet" he said in a low voice as he looked to the side while getting redder. "Well yeah that was a bit of a problem...she actually doesn't like drinking at all so I think that was her first time getting drunk" he said with a wide eyed expression. That never bothered him which was strange as it would had been if it were anyone else. But with his sister looking down at the drinks he had totally forgotten about them "Oh yes these" he laughed as he held one out for her to take "I have been studying to make better brews for my home brews.....this one is a IPA I made that is around 8%." he said proudly.

Hello dear @ Willow Iris Hazelwood Keep shining that light of yours! You have a mighty talent with your music....don't ever give up! P.S. I will never forget New York!

@ Mateo Sanz We need to find some time for you to try my new brew! Learned it in new rome and excited to chat with ya over a drink!

Killian had taken care of Willow after a crazy night after Lilythe's party. The poor lass had drink a wee welll more than a wee amount of alcohol. Which for someone who doesn't drink often made for a very bad night. After taking care of the lass, he then went back to his own cabin. See Killian had always looked up to his sister Vee as she was the older camper when he was a wee lad. She was one to always help him with thing plus when he went to new rome he saw her from time to time. The fact that she was back was big! He wondered why but then again he also just wanted to catch up with his dear ole sis! Getting to the cabin, he went to his room where he was making some of his special brew. Grabbing two glasses of the stuff he headed to her room to see if she was there. Knocking on the door "Knock Knock Sissy, I has a gift for you!" @ Vienna Pimm

Have you ever just seen a person you care about do the thing they love....it's as if they lose themselves in it. But for those around them they get to see that person shine in a way that captures the whole wide world. Killian had never known that feeling until he made friends at camp....but it had only been about them and no one else.....that was until now! "I am out doing a bit of Christmas Shopping myself" he said holding up the bag. The music shop logo was on the outside of the bag. "Since this place is so close go camp, it was sort of the easiest place to go. " Looking at the busy street around him. It was easy enough to blend into this town well that was until a monster caught your scent. Shaking his head, he held his hand out refusing to take the money back "Nooo you earned that, fair and square. If I had been any other person on the street. You would take it unless I am special in some way?" The smirk on his face grew under his red beard as he looked at the child of apollo in front of him. Then hearing some bells he turned to see off some ways that gave him an idea. Turning back he got this glint in his eye of madness as he was about to ask Willow to join him and maybe it was mad with how she must feel about him....but he had to try! "Come with me" he said as he folded her hand back over the money. "These is something fun I want to do in central park" he looked down to seeing his hands that had been on hers. Blushing he took it off as he looked at her with big puppy eyes.
