Around a dining table four people were having breakfast.
Two male and two females.
What was immediately striking about the arrangement was the visual symmetry of it. On the male side the two shared extremely similar features. The female side mirrored the same situation.
What made it more striking was that each pair seemed to be an older and younger version of the same thing.
The females sat across from each other, one appearing to be in her late twenties, the other in her mid-teens. The males were closer in age, one in his late teens and one just behind him. All four had green eyes.
Together they looked like a family.
'Well, we all are family,' Michael thought in silence as he glanced at Jester. 'Well, except for one maybe.'
In any case, everyone at this table carried his blood in some form. Aunt Mia and Lily had both been evolved using it. Jester's vessel had been built from his body entirely.
Familiar blood could not run any stronger than this.
