How did this place as huge as it was not have a damn kid park? It literally blew her mind but she had texted Alice none the less. I could not find an actual kid park, going to talk to Avery about that asap because how does she have kids and not have a kid park? WTF, none the less waiting outside the Ashford Arms we can still have a good day. I brought too much food and a kid. A kid. Whoa. I'll be right outside the arms, just text me when you arrive. BTW I hate texting please never expect me to do it again.Blythe in black was amazing apparently though she felt in a bit of pain. No more kids, well maybe later but not at the moment. Alice Seraphim

Alice was only starting to feel mobile herself when she seen the text that Blythe sent her. There was a lot they could do even if you didn't want to do the beaches that more tourists were discovering. So with fall starting to make itself felt she dressed accordingly in boots, blue jeans with a red long sleeved blouse and matching light sleeveless jumper. There was no rain forecast so while she was getting her little darlings ready to go out she replied to the text. <I'd love to go out today. I just need to get the babies dressed and I should be there in 30 minutes. See you then. Alice> She didn't want to think too deeply about other children right now. It would be a while until her sex life was at normal levels but she figured a gap of two years might be a good starting point when it came to family planning. So with Ayden in little green jogging pants and a t-shirt and Aurora in a pink baby dress that looked cute she arrived on time and with the dreaded double buggy in tow. So seeing Blythe she gave her a wave. She had an idea where to start as well considering Blythe had too much food. She did have the flask of coffee as well as promised. Blythe Mercer

She was actually happy when she seen Alice. She seemed in good spirits all things considering and even in knowing that she knew that she was not going to have a bad day out, either of them she hoped. "Hi, you look, well glad to be out. I think I know a thing or two about that feeling." Alice Seraphim

Alice had an idea and while it wasn't a kids park they still could go somewhere with grass and space to for babies to move around. "Hi Blythe. It does feel good to get out but I do have an idea" she replied. "Also meet Aurora and Ayden" she added indicating her babies who were slightly awake and nearly going back to sleep again under their little blankets. "We could start right here" she suggested. "Find a green spot to sit in and have some of the food you brought. I brought a flask of coffee". She'd lived here when she arrived so knew there was spots like that here. So once they were fed and caffinated they could figure something else out. Blythe Mercer

"That sounds fine I just was a bit disappointed, probably post baby stuff. I literally almost started crying when I found out that we did not have one which is very unusual for me, I am not a crier, never have been." It was not that she did not have emotions she just found crying to be draining. "How about a little right here to the left?" Alice Seraphim

So wheeling her buggy round to that green area she listened to what we Blythe had to say. It didn’t make sense in some ways but she’d find out what happened. “You can tell me more about now once we sit down” she softly replied. She knew Blythe was pregnant so what had changed? Then a hug followed. She cared about Blythe big time. Blythe Mercer

She took a second to turn around and slowly push her baby son into the picture. "Hi Aurora and Ayden," she said. "This is Messiah," she said. "I wanted a girl but it's okay." She was fine with a kid either way. "I do not know I just seem a little more aware than I was and I am starting to notice small stuff here and there, not bad just different things." She took a second. "Guess I hate sitting at home but a couple of more weeks and I should be able to get back to work." Alice Seraphim

So Blythe got a son instead of a daughter. She still sounded fine about the outcome. “Blythe, a baby will change you and you’ll see what’s different over time. You do need to get out with your son before you get back to work” she suggested. She’d a bit longer before she got back to her job but she knew a babysitter and the daycare arrangements were set up already. “Hello Messiah. Are you being a good boy for mommy?” she posed to him in a soft voice with words he wouldn’t understand yet. Her children noticed another baby and curious looks followed. “If we put them together they’d make a beautiful trio. Mine take more after their daddy” she mused. “I had a trip to the palaeontology path after we got them home. They liked the fresh air and being out” she added offering a paper cup to Blythe as she was about to open up her flask of coffee. Blythe Mercer

"Yeah," she knew it was okay she just was in a weird situation. "My relationship is the strangest thing it's like an unspoken relationship," she laughed about that but even stranger was the fact that it did not seem to bother her all too much. "He's okay from time to time but it is excellent that your children enjoyed getting out, did you?" Alice Seraphim

Blythe did have the trickier relationship but it still was one all the same. "As long as it works I suppose" she mused with a smile. "They did like getting out and it felt good to get out as well. I got two days rest before that and because I'd meal prepped before the birth that made things a bit easier" she added. All Lucas had to do was was put the frozen dinner in the oven and she'd even frozen up portions of pineapple crumble in advance. "When Aurora is old enough to be our flower girl I'll marry Lucas. I want our children to be part of things". Meanwhile Aurora and Ayden were getting more curious as they both sat up further to get a better look at the new baby. Both her babies even had little teddy bears tucked in beside them and Halloween would be fun this year. Would dressing them as pumpkins be cute? Or just keep it simple and get cats ears?

That was the thing she was starting to wonder if it worked, on the one hand it did and on the other hand even if she wanted more her job was not going to allow it. "Anyway getting out is good for me too, had the normal check up after. Doctor said everything looks good which is a plus." She took a second. "Kids are a whole damn trip," she said. "Anyway I am working a case well sort of, want to help me look over the details?" Alice Seraphim

She'd have wanted out even with her workload pre-pregnancy. Especially with the cases she had to deal with. That need remained even with little darlings to look after. She smiled as she said "this is when you pick out the cute halloween costumes for them. That's lots of fun but I'm torn between pumpkins and black cats for Aurora and Ayden. They'll probally have twins costumes for years to come". Her babies were so much fun to be with already. "What sort of case?" she posed wondering if it was even in her field or not. Or even if she was supposed to see it. She had no idea of what cases OSE even looked at. "If I'm able to yes I wil". Blythe Mercer

"Well considering the season we are in I thought that someone was joking but it seems that some people are starting to find pieces of people. Not many mind you but people or someone at least is seemingly trying to bury them here or they get washed up here. Either could work," she said as she picked up Messiah. She was a bit worried to say the least. "Not anything you really want getting out but something that needs looking into none the less. No idea if the Ashfords know about this either but if not they certainly probably will." Alice Seraphim

On the surface this case wasn't even close to the same level as the Lanchester case. The body parts might have originated here or drifted here. The first thing that came to mind was were any body parts able to be identified. That could lead the case somewhere else or confirm it was rooted here. So sipping from her coffee cup as her twins enjoyed being outside and Blythe picking up Messiah she spoke making an initial suggestion. "Did you end up getting this case from the Ashford PD or did OSE get contacted directly" she posed sounding curious. Then she added "If it came from the PD then the Ashfords's might know and by extension the involvement of the Security Services. Do you know if any body parts have been indentified yet? If we knew where they came from it might give a starting point. I also know that criminals tend to leave dead bodies for the reef sharks round here rather than bury them. A body found near the graveyard was actually the first case with my partner". Her thoughts also turned to INTERPOL and also Laurent Dumas. He was having cases here that overlapped with the duties on Guadaloupe. Blythe Mercer

"Came from a higher up. They don't usually mess with us directly unless they want the threat put under. I mean at least that is how it has always been with all of my cases which makes cases like this a little bit better for me, especially with having a kid now. I need to if i can work cases that do not give me nightmares at night. Can not function with no sleep but I imagine that you know what that might be like from time to time." Alice Seraphim
