       Zelpharia's Little Secret 
       By: Raven Tepes Date: March 11, 2022, 12:39 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       ((RP for [member=1]Zorbak the Ebil Moglin[/member] as Qrow to
       start. May open for Black Sun members.))
       Zelpharia had a lot to think about after helping Dufort out and
       get him settled. She had introduced him to Rosetta who is the
       daughter of Qrow but then she thought about how long she's kept
       Rosetta's existence from her own father. Of course at the time
       Rosetta was conceived, Zelpharia barely knew Qrow except that
       she had met him in a bar in 1692 in Paris during the early years
       of her 2nd incarnation. They had gotten into a drinking contest
       that Zelpharia had provoked. The contest went for a while. Then
       the two started getting very friendly while still trying to out
       drink each. Well, one thing lead to another which lead to a
       drunken one stand in Zelpharia's TARDIS. Within a couple of
       weeks, Tara informed Zelpharia of the pregnancy while she was
       working on a big problem on a Celestian colony planet in the
       27th century. Zelpharia had repressed her contaminate immunity
       so well while drinking that she could just remember Qrow's face,
       physical features, and that he's a vampire, but couldn't
       remember anything else.
       Zelpharia had made sure to raise Rosetta with the knowledge of
       how she came about and that one day they would find her father.
       Then Zelpharia met Hei and memories of that night in Paris came
       back to her. Then she met Laura and Qrow one night on a girl's
       night out with Anna and Raven. That was when the full memories
       flooded back fully. Zelpharia had been delaying telling Qrow
       ever since until Dufort.
       Zelpharia decided to talk to Laura first and explain the
       situation considering the relationship Laura is with Qrow.
       Zelpharia was surprised by how well Laura took everything though
       Laura said she had a suspicion for awhile after the girl's
       night. Laura and Zelpharia got things set up for the meeting
       between Qrow and Rosetta at the bar. Now Zelpharia and Rosetta
       sit at the bar with Laura cleaning a glass behind it. Zelpharia
       is a ball of nerves no matter how much Laura reassures her that
       everything will be fine while Rosetta looks more like she's not
       getting high hopes for being accepted.
       Zelpharia: I don't know if I can do, Laura. I'm just dropping
       this on Qrow and you like this doesn't feel right. What if he
       rejects everything?
       Laura: Now you stop worrying. Qrow be a good man who can be
       forgiving depending on the circumstances.. and this be one of
       those understanding ones. Besides your Rosie sense strong with
       Darkfire and shares a family resemblance. No denying she be a
       Darkfire. So stop worrying.
       Rosetta: Laura is right, Mom. I've seen pictures of Hei,
       Kindron, and Qrow and friends with Yuffie and can safely say
       that I even see the family resemblance. So please relax. You're
       so nervous that you're starting to flare my empathic powers.
       Zelpharia: Fine.. fine.. I'll try to calm down. Zelpharia says
       with a nervous tone and then takes a sip of tea that Laura had
       given her.
       Laura: Please do because Qrow should be here any second.
       Zelpharia: Oh Goddess... She then takes another sip of her tea
       and thinks how she needs something stronger.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Qrow had been a little late, due to having to take out some dark
       spirits that appeared. But after he was done, he headed to meet
       Zelpharia and Laura.
       Thankfully, Qrow made up for lost time thanks to teleporting,
       stopping to get some alcohol on the way. He starts drinking,
       heading to meet Zelpharia and Laura. At his side was his sword,
       Yami, as was usual for Qrow to have Yami with him. Yami was an
       intelligent sword, designed to fight dark spirits by Heaven, and
       usually chose guardians of humans to fight dark spirits. Qrow
       was the current wielder of Yami, and a sort of self-imposed
       guardian of the living world that protected it from dark spirits
       (though lately he had been having a lot of difficulty with that
       compared to old times since dark spirits had been more easily
       appearing in the world, especially in London.
       Yami: Are you sure you should be drinking already, Qrow? He asks
       Qrow curiously.
       Qrow: It's fine. Pretty sure they both know it's what I do by
       now. He says as he heads to meet Laura and Zelpharia.
       Yami: You don't even know what this meeting is about, though.
       What if this is a moment you need to be sober for?
       Qrow: It's fine, Yami... I can handle things better when I've
       been drinking anyway. I'm not as tense when I drink.
       Yami: That's what most drunk people say until they realize
       they're morons. He says sarcastically.
       Qrow stays silent as he walks in, feeling somewhat ready for
       whatever might await him.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Laura smiles brightly when she sees Qrow walk into the bar. She
       notices the bottle that he has and her smile turns into a soft
       wry grin. Laura waves to Qrow from behind the bar as she puts
       away the glass that she finishes cleaning. Laura: There be the
       man of the hour. A little late but here. She jokingly says just
       to tease him a bit. Laura knows that Qrow has been busier than
       usual. Laura: Come and have a seat at the bar, mi amor. You
       might need it.
       Zelpharia sees Laura's smile and hears her words which only
       makes her more nervous about what's about to come next.
       Zelpharia doesn't turn around in her seat as her nerves are
       getting the best of her. Even a normal human can tell how
       nervous Zeph is at this point. Zelpharia typically wouldn't
       suppress her temporal 6th sense in cases like this but decided
       that nervousness is better than foreseeing anger and rejection
       from Qrow. Zelpharia: I think I need something stronger than
       Earl Gray tea like a shot of Gentleman Jack or Everclear.
       Rosetta: Relax. Everything is going to be fine, Mom. Rosetta
       says to Zelpharia with an encouraging tone of voice. She then
       adds telepathically. Rosetta: "Besides alcohol impairs judgement
       and rational thought." Rosetta doesn't turn around to look at
       Qrow but can sense her family connection to him. She figures
       that Qrow should be able to sense it too if what Laura and
       Zelpharia had told is right. Rosetta does get a bit nervous
       herself when she senses Qrow, which she doesn't get nervous
       often, and takes a bigger swallow of her JD Tennessee Apple on
       the rocks. Rosetta also figures that turning to look at Qrow
       would just give away the obvious better as both Zelpharia and
       Laura say Rosetta looks more like Qrow than Zelpharia. She
       decides to be the "unknown Darkfire" until Zelpharia makes the
       introductions.

       Qrow sits down. He looks at Rosetta for a moment, wondering
       about her as he senses her presence. He could sense her as a
       Darkfire, and didn't really know anything about her. His first
       thought was either a Darkfire he didn't know, or possibly a
       dimensional alternate. He turns back to the group. Qrow:
       Compared to the consumers I just beat, I can't imagine this will
       be worse than that. He says jokingly.

       By: Raven Tepes Date: March 11, 2022, 12:32 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Zelpharia downs the rest of her tea like it was a shot of
       alcohol after Qrow's comment which Laura was quick to refill the
       cup when Zelpharia puts it down. Zelpharia: Well I can't say
       this is worse than what you just went through, but it definitely
       will be a surprise. She says with a bit of a nervous tone as she
       looks to Qrow and gives him a nervous smile. Zelpharia doesn't
       exactly know how to tell Qrow about Rosetta but knows it will be
       better than how Alucard found out about Vladimir. Zelpharia had
       told Laura close to everything about what happened and how she
       didn't even realize that Qrow could be the father until years
       later. She just hopes that Qrow is as understanding as Laura.
       Zelpharia: This isn't easy to say but needs to be said. Qrow, do
       you remember a night in Paris in 1692 when I challenged you to a
       drinking contest in a hole-in-the-wall bar?
       Rosetta looks to Qrow as he takes a seat and looks to her and
       quickly sees where Hei gets his looks from. Looking at Rosetta,
       Qrow would be able to see the family resemblance between her and
       his other children with Rosetta having a stronger resemblance to
       himself than Zelpharia. Rosetta wasn't sure how her mother was
       going to handle this situation as she's suppressing her
       telepathy because Zelpharia's mind is a jumble so she remains
       quiet for the moment. Rosetta would be lying if she told anyone
       that she feels awkward and nervous about the situation.
       Laura pulls out a clean glass for Qrow after pouring more tea
       for Zelpharia. She quietly places it in front of him so he can
       pour himself a shot with the bottle that he brought with him.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Qrow: 1962... Paris... He thinks back for a moment and then
       shrugs. Sorry... My memory isn't really the best. After a few
       millennia, everything just sort of runs together. Either that or
       I was too drunk to remember.
       Yami: You're always too drunk, Qrow. It's a miracle you remember
       getting up this morning. He says in response to Qrow's comment.
       He's the stubborn type that cures hangovers with more alcohol.
       He says sarcastically to the group.
       Qrow, in the middle of pouring himself a drink, stops at Yami's
       comment and then shrugs as he continues pouring his drink.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Zelpharia: That pretty much sounds like me after a night of
       drinking certain types of alcohol. Zelpharia says to Qrow's
       sword, Yami. She then takes a sip of her tea and continues with
       what she has to say to Qrow. Zelpharia: As for that night in
       Paris, Qrow, I really don't remember much except that we got
       black out drunk without hardly knowing each other. Then one
       thing lead to another which lead to you and I going back to my
       TARDIS for a night of fun. Zelpharia then takes a breath and
       another sip of her tea. Zelpharia: Two weeks later Tara did her
       typical monthly health scan of me and informed me that I was
       pregnant with your child, and then nine months later on March
       29, 1693, I gave birth to healthy baby girl. I didn't know who
       you were so I didn't exactly know how to find you at first, and
       Tara wasn't exactly helpful as she's as stubborn about spoilers
       involving my own timeline. It wasn't until I met Hei that I
       realized who our daughter's father is. Zelpharia says as she
       looks to Qrow with less nervousness and more apologetic look.
       She then motions to Rosetta. Zelpharia: Qrow, this is your
       daughter, Rosetta Tolodora-Darkfire.
       Rosetta sips on her drink as her mother speaks to Qrow and keeps
       quiet. She knew the story about how she was conceived so was
       mostly paying attention for her introduction. When Zelpharia
       motions to her, Rosetta slams the rest of her JD Tennessee
       Apple, puts the glass down, and waves to Qrow as Zelpharia
       finally introduces her. Rosetta: Hello, pops. Nice to finally
       meet you after a couple hundred years. She says to Qrow with a
       bit of a sarcastic jocular tone similar to Qrow or Kendrix.
       Laura grabs a bottle of JD Tennessee Apple and pours more for
       Rosetta while saying her own smartass joke. Laura: Between her
       attitude and how she drinks, I definitely say she's your kid, mi
       amor. There's a light laugh in Laura's voice as she speaks and
       then places the bottle down when finished pouring.

       Qrow: Oh boy... He says sighing as he starts drinking again. I
       guess I owe a ton of child support then huh? He says jokingly.
       He turns his attention to Rosetta. Nice to meet ya, I guess. I
       wish I could say more, but I don't really know what to say right
       now. He says, wondering what he could say to Rosetta. I'm
       starting to wonder just how many kids I have running around the
       world.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Without missing a beat, Rosetta follows Qrow's comment about
       number of kids with a smart-ass reply. Rosetta: I'll take a stab
       in the dark and say at least as many kids as Mom has running
       around the universe. That makes Laura giggle a while making
       Zelpharia sigh and shake her head. Rosetta then takes a sip of
       drink after Laura finishes pouring it and continues. Rosetta:
       And if you want to pay back child support then you can teach me
       more about using this. Rosetta holds out her free hand and
       produces black flames in her palm. Her voice becomes calm and
       less smartass as she continues. Rosetta: Apparently not only did
       the Celestian academy never experience a psychic of my caliber
       since the fall of some dark time lords, but they had no clue how
       to train me in my vampiric abilities. Poor Mom tried but
       Vladimir coming along while we were trying to figure out what
       to do when I developed my Darkfire abilities didn't help. Also
       doesn't help that Vladimir is a Tepes.. or Draculesti... or
       whatever Alucard's family name is.
       Zelpharia takes a sip of her tea as Rosetta talks to Qrow.
       Zelpharia has visibly become less nervous now that the hardest
       part is over. Laura quietly puts the bottle of Tennessee Apple
       down on the bar near Rosetta.

       Qrow: Well, that shouldn't be too hard. Your psychic potential
       and vampire/Celestian mix  power seems very similar to one of
       Wolf-boy's (Kindron) alternate kids (Dufort). So I'm sure we can
       find a way to help train you in your Darkfire and vampire
       abilities. The major thing you need to know is that our skills
       require discipline and control. And from what that psychic kid
       of Wolf-Boy seemed like, it seems like your immense psychic
       power will require even more precise control as well. So that is
       definitely where your training should start. He explains before
       drinking some more.
