[It isn't very often Elektra sleeps soundly. This is certainly one of those nights and Elektra definitely wasn't going to complain about it.... At least until she feels something close to touching her hair. That gets her to reach under her pillow for a weapon that isn't in this room. She might have worried it if wasn't for a familiar voice (and one unfamiliar one she barely noticed) that immediately killed any worries she might have had.]
Helen! [She's immediately sitting up in bed staring at the familiar blond haired, green eyed girl. Elektra reaches out to her daughter. No she could care less about anyone else right now. She just needs to confirm Helen was actually here and not just a part of particularly cruel dream.]
[Normally, she'd be a little more alarmed at a sudden weight to the bed that wasn't one she'd become accustomed to, but when Oliver rolls in her direction, she's hit with familiar, comfortable scent and warmth of him and she does nothing but burrow further into her pillow and try to fall further asleep.
Something blocked by two screaming childish voices, and two more. One she wasn't expecting, and three she can't place. She's quickly moving up into a sitting position, moving her hair out of her face and taking everything in with slight alarm, which defaults to anger at the two adults present]
Okay, so remember when I said the castle does ... odd things? Worlds being created overnight, that sort of thing?
This is one of those things, but instead of it creating a world -- it creates offspring. This... [his hand moves to ruffle to Helen's hair and smile at her] is Helen. She showed up last year and she's a child that I took care of with Elektra here. [aaaand a boy. Huh.]
My guess is that this would be our child and his name is...?
'ERIC!'
His name is Eric and he's very excited about that, but it'll ... it'll get easier, but first - Tess, this is Elektra... and Elektra... this is Tess.
[heh... he has not said a word about either woman to ... either woman! YAY! AWKWARD!]
[Elektra simply nods in agreement. This was definitely not how she pictured her reunion with her daughter but, if this was Tess she has no reason to worry about being with a strange woman in bed (though the awkward situation she was in is definitely starting to sink in now that she had Helen). Elektra as always is determined to at least appear apathetic about it even while wondering why the castle put her in odd situations with Oliver so often.]
It's nice to meet you, Tess. [She turns her attention to Eric.] And you too, Eric.
[And back to the adults.] We should start trying to figure this out. [She pauses for a second realizing that they may want to go back to bed. What time was it even?] If you're up for it.

Explain. Right now.
