Eric stepped forward and placed his hands on her shoulders for a moment, "Regardless, I should not have tried. I've been very bitter for many years, I keep seeing new people making the old mistakes and it... it infuriates me. I just want it to be over" he sighed wearily.

She flinched when he touched her but she didn't pull away, she sniffed, "I know. I know the bitterness you carry from those days and... I tried to show you... I was scared you...you.."

Eric tilted her chin up to look her in the eyes, "Darling, I'm so sorry. I never wanted to scare you like that and I certainly never knew about your mother."

"I never mentioned it because..." She sniffed trying to keep it together, "That you'd hate her and you'd look at me differently."

Eric looked at her oddly, "My dear, a mutant is a mutant, we all evolved from homo-sapiens, at which generation makes no matter." he paused, looking at his own hands now, "although... I now find myself, after all these years, among them."

"Yeah... but you'd still look ill on my mom. And she means the world to me..." She gingerly put her hand over Eric's, "I'm sure they'll find a way to get your powers back but for now, maybe it might be good for you... To walk in their shoes?" She said softly, not trying to start a fight but just point out what's what.

"But why Papa? Why can't you at least try?" She tilted her head to make eye contact with him again.

"I'm sorry Ciara" Eric shook his head, "but I... I just can't." he'd never really looked so old. "My house is stuck this way forever now. I can't even get into my own room because I sealed it before I left. All I have are the clothes on my back and armour that I can't even wear anymore because it's to heavy and I can't even get it on properly anymore." he shook his head, "I should not be complaining about all this to you. I apologize, I'm quite tired. You should go..."

"...ok." She kissed his cheek and headed out. She paused at the door, "Papa, they can take away your powers but only you can take away your livelyhood..."

Eric sighed, laying down in the bed. It was more than just losing his powers, it was like everything had come crashing down around him and then, just to make sure his heart was added to the pile of debris, Magda had come to pull on his heartstrings. Given the choice, of course he would always want another chance to talk to her, however he had made his peace with her passing a long time ago. Having her come back in the midst of all this just made him hurt even more.

Ciara sighed, closing the door and heading back down the hallway to the bedroom with Horatio in it. He was still out. She paused and then headed out.
About 20 mins later, she was in front of Eric's room with a blow torch and a marker outline of a door.

About 7 and a half hours later, Ciara came knocking on the door. She walked in, wearing a pair of goggles on top her head, work clothes and rather dirty looking clothes.
"Oh Papa <3." She rubbed his shoulder, "I've got a surprise for you."

"Come on, I'll show you." She told him to close his eyes and led him down the hallway. "Ta-da! Open them."
They were standing in his room, a tunnel where the door was and a make-shift door/ curtain in it's place. And there were small holes in the wall almost like little hand shapes windows.
And on the bed was one extremely happy ginger baby, wiggling around. Ciara picked him up, "Little Lucas wanted to help... I know it's not the way it was but..."

Eric looked around and a bit of a smile tugged at his lips as he went over and picked up Lucas, "It's perfect, thank you"

She kissed his cheek, "You're welcome, Papa. I know what you're going through right now must be really hard on you and I thought maybe at least being able to sleep in your own bed might help."
Lucas smiled widely, before almost instantly closing his eyes. "Poor little guy. Mommy worked you hard didn't she?" She said rubbing his belly with her finger.

Ciara blushed and smiled, " You're welcome." She wrapped her arms around his waist, "If there's anything I can do to make you feel better, let me know ok?... How about some tea and biscuits?"

"You've done more than enough" Eric replied, "and you owe me nothing. I almost killed you, it is I that should be trying to make you feel better"

She shook her head, "You didn't know. And I should have told you sooner but..." She walked up to one of the hand windows, placing a hand on it , " I can't really blame you. After such experiences... the way they treated you. The hate in their eyes. The fear you felt..." She said softly, not really cluing into what she'd just said, staring off into the distance.

Eric bounced Lucas up and down, though as Ciara spoke he looked at her oddly, "... how do you know that?"

Lucas smiled happily.
Ciara shoulders tense up and there was a small pause. Oh hell. "I...Well, Mmmm Magda mentioned some of it while you were out..." She hadn't meant for that information to slip. It just seemed like the right thing to say at the time.
