Misguided Ghosts [OPEN]

[Ceil Marks]

Ceil knew he was telling him the truth. Why would he lie about something like this? James really was his father. His real father. Ceil had found him without even trying to find him. He had wanted to find his father when he got here. He just figured it would take some research.

He saw the tears in James eyes, and how upset he was over this. He really did regret giving them up... you could see it in his eyes. Ceil didn't care, then, about anything. He didn't care that he hadn't had the best childhood, he didn't care that he had always resented his father a bit because he left them.

Ceil had tears in his eyes, and running down his cheeks as he went and hugged James again. This time tighter. Showing him with that hug that he had forgiven him. That he was just glad that he had his real father in his life.

[Jaminson Redpaw]

James was shocked when Ciel hugged him tightly. Honestly, he wasn't expecting his son's forgiveness.

"Thank you..." James muttered, returning the hug with tears of happiness now running down his face "I have so much to tell you and Rin. So many things to show you!"

Jaminson thought about the things he would tell and show his children now that at least one knew he was their father. He'd have to let them see Henry Redpaw, James' dad and the mansion and... everything!

"I guess all we have to do now is tell Rin..." James muttered but looked at Ciel with a smile "Is there anything you want to know that I haven't told you? Anything at all? I'll tell you all you want to know. I could do at least that much for you..."

[Ceil Marks]

"I want to hear everything, Jam - . Er. Dad?" Ceil wasn't entirely sure what to call him now. Should he call him dad? Or should he still call him James? What normally happened in these situations? This might be a tad awkward.

"Rin will come around. Especially if she knows you're our dad. But she might be a tad more mad and unforgiving than I am." Honestly. Ceil was dead afraid of Rin finding out. But she needed to know. She needed to know who their real father was, and why James had been so keen on making friends with them and making sure they were okay. It made complete sense now.

Ceil was kind of conflicted here. He had a feeling Rin would make much more of a deal about this than he. And more than likely Ceil would be forced in the middle of it.

[Jaminson Redpaw]

"You can call me whatever you want to Ciel." James told Ciel, sensing the slight awkwardness "I honestly don't really care... Whatever sounds best for you will work for me."

"I know... Rin is so much like her mom. I'd expect her to react violently." he commented rather sadly, he didn't deserve her forgiveness either but that didn't mean he didn't want it "Anyway, your mother..."

James had no clue where to begin. There were so many wonderful stories to tell about Tania and their life together that he really didn't know what to say.

"Well.... There's a lot to say about your mum." James said with an affectionate chuckle "I could ramble on and on about her all day but I'm afraid I don't really know what to say... Why don't you ask me questions and we'll start off from there?"

[Ceil Marks]

Ceil knew that James wouldn't care. But he didn't know what he should call him now that he knew James was his dad. Knew that James was his real dad. That was still hard to think about. Ceil had wanted to meet him for his entire life. And now that he did he didn't know how to act.

"I want to know any and everything. How did you two meet? What house was she in? What house were you in? You say she was like Rin... does that mean she was cold toward everyone but the people she loved? Or was she more loving than that?" Ceil bombarded him with questions. He wanted to ask more. He wanted to know everything about his mother, but not just her. He also wanted to know more about James since he just found out he was his dad too. He could ask questions all day.

[Jaminson Redpaw]

James took a few seconds to process the question Ciel was giving him then took another few moments to think them over. However, it didn't take very long to think up of responses as he knew the answers as well as he knew how many cigars he had smoked that day.

"Well, Tania and I first truly met when I was kinda being a jerk to... a guy I believe and she was there when it happened. She stood up for them even though he wasn't even really her friend. Almost the opposite really. After that I became interested in her and pretty much began poking around in her business. We only really became friends when I protected her from a of my... 'friends'. You see she was kind of an outcast and she was emotionally unstable." James took in a deep breath at this point, his face shining as he spoke. Tania was always his favored topic of choice. "Umm... We were both Hufflepuffs and yes. It was mainly because of her emotional problems then though..."

[Ceil Marks]

Ceil didn't know how to take this all in. Rin was going to blow a casket when she found out it was him that had been their real father. "It makes sense now... why you found us in London... and all of that. Why you brought us here with you. We always thought you were being nice. Well I did. Rin thought you were being a creep." Ceil chuckled.

"I wish you would have told us sooner. Well... me sooner. I think it might be better if I tell Rin myself instead of you telling her. Or maybe. Both of us together. I don't think she's going to take this very well." Actually, Ceil thought she was going to freak out and probably run away somewhere. She was adamant about not wanting to meet their real dad.
