Alpine Lake everyday adventures

Reverie didn't elaborate too much on what had happened between the last time they had met and now, but Phox couldn't blame her. Based on Blossom, he figured it really was a long story, and maybe one she wasn't up for talking about with somebody who wasn't a close confidant. He knew the feeling all too well, especially considering his own parental turmoil a couple of years back. It wasn't as though everybody needed to hear him talk about his dead wife (or wives, rather). Thankfully, his kids were all grown (and mostly out of the picture), so the questions were few and far between. Only when Towhee's kids came up did he get any weird looks, and that was easy enough to explain that he wasn't their biological father.

I'd swear there's something in the water giving everyone kids who look just like them, Phox said with a grin. While Blossom wasn't quite as cookie-cutter as Towhee Junior or Maggak, he definitely saw some distinct similarities between Reverie and her daughter. Reverie went on to ask about him and the family, and Phox shrugged. I'm as good as ever. Most of the kids moved on, but that's just kinda what they do, I've learned. I was actually hoping my sister Towhee might wander over this way eventually so I could travel with her. She's been camping out with a bunch of our kids all over the place rather than sticking to one location.
