Kell knelt down and gave Rika a hug in return "Retirement, we decided to get out of the spy business and focus on raising our family"Kell replied, smiling back at Rika "Also, I don't think you've met before, this is my daughter Jordana"Kell finished, lightly nudging the shy little girl behind him forward
Rika passed her cake to Jeremy and held out her arms to Jordana, smiling brightly.

Seth was watching the exchange, and keeping his eyes open for any sign of that bastard Dangen and Miller. He took a drink of beer, sighing. He leaned against the wall.
"Lovely party. All we're missing is Lovejoy and Orley, and we'd have the old crowd back.
Sombrero finally stood up and locked his gun. He relaxed his body a bit more and moved towards Daniels and the other persons of Cerberus. Arrived where Daniels sat, he put a hand on a chair, speaking in his normal tone, always sounding a bit more aggressive.
"Is here a free place? I am driving crazy when I am not going to drink something...."
"Transfered to primary. Learned my mom was lesbian and has fallen in love with an old flame of mine. Go figure. Married with that beautiful blonde bombshell." Jeremy indicates Isabella Archer, who's now dancing with a party guest. "Got two young twins, Sora and Soren. Also I've ended up with adopting an old friend into my family. Oh, and I've had a few family revelations beside my mom being lesbian."
Kell looked at Jeremy with a slightly confused expression"Sounds like you had an interesting time since I resigned, congrats on the marriage and kids, how old are they?"Kell replied
"You also missed a Coalition pilot hitting on me, as well as my capture by the SCRA and then I got handed to the Kusari Wilde...got merged into their Arch Storm, a facet of the Mindshare."
Kell looked at Jeremy emphatically "Sorry to hear my friend, though you don't look any worse for the wear, and two years old eh? I remember when Jordana was that age, wasn't fun, but would prefer it to the coming teenage years. Still kept Rebecca and I up in the middle of the night"Kell laughed lightly as he finished the statement."If you want though I can have Rebecca give you a psych eval, in case the Wilde left somthing there, but the coalition? How the heck did that happen? I was under the impression the Order was still allied to them"Kell finished, looking tad bewildered by this news
"I don't know. Everything went to hell. The alliance is as dead as a Corsair on Malta."
He sighed, taking a swig of vodka. Jeremy didn't even look aged a bit.
"As for the kids, well, me and Izzy are spart for her safety and the kids. She lives with my mother on Manhattan. Gives the kids a normal home atmosphere."
Jeremy paused again, thinking.
"I've had dozens of psych evals, all from different doctors ten ways from the Inquisitor to the Oathkeeper, the Osiris I command. I got transfered to Primary; Lost my lovely Colonel rank, but I'll be damned if they take my command away."
While Sombrero walked over to the table, grabbed a chair and asked if he could take the seat Daniels replied...
Daniels : Of course, take a seat. You might want to order something from the butler Hans, he's renown for his knowledge on alcoholic beverages. I've also noticed that you look a bit tense, so you really should get a drink and maybe even walk over to the balcony to admire the beautiful view.
