  "Good. Took ya long enough, bub." She said rather playfully with a smirk as Tony had his head tilted up quite a bit just to look into
  her familial hues. Honestly, he'd feel...pretty intimidated by her height. But what he was mostly feeling was a sense of proudness,
  melancholy and the usual guilt. He'd remember how she was so small that she could basically use him as a jungle gym...and now
  she was practically as tall as her parents. It was very strange to see. Like someone had completed a puzzle that you were going to
  finish the next morning...but you were also really looking forward to finishing it on your own. "Uh...yeah..." he said a little
  more softer and genuine than his last attempt at communicating with her. "But gee...you uh...y'sure did grow up, kid" he'd add,
  trying his best to not sound sad or awkward...which failed. Overcast rolled her pupils to the sides with a half frown "no duh"
  she shifted her hues around briefly before staring back down at her long lost uncle and still seeing him just stare at her silently in
  some melancholic awe like she was a beautiful work of art. She blinked twice and couldn't help but find him to be acting very
  strange and dramatic. Then she'd realize that she felt many more stares on them...specifically five pairs of eyes that were all from
  her enemies. Again, she blinked twice and now began to faintly sweat as she had felt nervous for her reputation. So unfortunately
  for her uncle, she'd interrupt this sweet moment with her loud voice. "ANYWAYS LOOK'IT WHAT I MADE, UNCLE TONE!!!!" she'd
  quickly grab something off her back with her two large mits before holding it forward and having to get on her hind legs. Tony
  had already looked shocked from her interrupting him the way she did...but once he realized who she was holding. His pupils and
  iris' were pretty much invisible and his lips were in all sorts of knots. The way she had worded it also did not help him
  whatsoever as it was revealed that she was holding Alex. Her son who was looking rather shocked...and muddy. But oh boy did he
  look adorable in that little outfit of his with an oversized blue bucket had that had drooped down from the few lures on it while
  his messy, fluffy dark hair had popped out from under it. The muddy, waterproof overalls had a green, one-eyed frog creature
  in it with antennae, fins on it's slimy, mucky wrists and some gills on it's sides as it'd croak. His undershirt was a simple black shirt
  with his red bandana hanging over it along with some long, black rubber boots on his back paws. Tony couldn't believe what
  he was seeing as he just stand there and stare into the puppy's innocent eyes that were staring right back and had further kept
  him frozen and looking shocked. Then, those sparkly, wide eyes blinked twice slowly and made Tony's brows raise up more as he
  felt his heart warming up. "Howdy" was all Alex stated with that adorable little voice of his to make Tony feel like he just got
  punched right in the heart as his brows curved and his eyes narrowed."Oh God-" Tony tightly gripped his lower chest with his
  large mit as he'd speak with a very strained voice and trembled. "I'm gonna have'a heawrt attack." He'd sound very genuine and
  stressed which made the brothers, Anastasia and Alex completely believe him even though it was very obvious that it
  was just an over exaggeration and him just being not too smart.

But since he wasn't the healthiest animal in the world, Storm and
  Anastasia believed that he actually was and the ancient queen...didn't care too much while the others just looked
  panicked. Sniper and Alex on the other paw...well they were just oblivious really. However, (and thankfully) Overcast had the right
  mind...for once and settled the air; "nah,nah,nah, Big T doez' awre just emotions y'numbskull!!" she'd peer over Alex just to
  scowl down at her uncle as Storm looked unamused in the background and Sniper was very relieved while Alex merely
  blinked twice and took his mother's word for it blindly. You...could probably guess how Anastasia acted though. However,
  Tony would blink twice and look rather surprised as he'd slowly lower his paw and have to tilt his head up more to stare at his
  niece. "Oh..." he'd stare back into Alex's eyes nervously "uhh..." he cleared his throat a bit "nice t'meet 'cha, kiddo" he'd slowly and
  anxiously reach his paw up at his great-nephew as he'd fear for Alex's reaction. Especially as the tyke didn't respond at first and
  just...stared at the brute with narrowed eyes. "...Why's yer eye like 'dat?" Tony blinked twice, still holding his paw up at the little
  brat with a blank expression while Overcast looked amused and was...also probably wondering why honestly. "Uh-...well I got used
  as'a punchin' bag when I wasn't in d'right mind" he answered honestly and set down his paw gently. Thankfully, he'd seem much
  less nervous but it was still pretty obvious since this question had adult themes to it. Alex narrowed his eyes a little more and was
  probably judging Tony in the process. "M'kaay 'den..." he said, both looking and sounding pretty darn suspicious of his
  great-uncle and thought of him as pretty strange. The brute blinked twice yet again before awkwardly staring at his nephew.
  Then, the pup would suddenly be set down on the ground "anyway b'four 'dis gets awkward just know 'dat me an' Alex awre
  gonna be by d'hidden lake 'dat dad used 'ta flitch at so if y'don't wanna be a deadbeat anymore an' explain some things t'me 'den
  y'know whea' t'go, chump." She'd gently place her paw on top of Alex's head, causing the bucket hat to completely block his vision
  and make him try to remove his mother's giant paw from his head with absolutely no success. "Uh'aight 'den, Oc. I'll see ya
  'dere" he said, trying his best to sound 'professional' "yeah,yeah. An' take 'dat thing out 'cha mouth when y'get 'dere, Alex is still
  growin'. An' make sure t'actually show up too." She narrowed her eyes at him and scowled as she spoke in an annoyed tone
  before teleporting away in a flash of black and purple light with her son just to cut off the conversation.
