April's dad, Tony, was coming to visit me soon. It was Wednesday and there were a ton of projects I was working on, all at once. Since my size was still an issue as far as wearing anything, I took to wearing a kilt and a wife beater all black of course, but often I went shirtless. As for my project work around Trinity:I have always enjoyed lifting heavy things and so I was doing my best to make the property look like it hadn't been entirely neglected for 30 years. That battle was uphill, but I was winning.
My physique was like a comic book superhero and I could lift an insane amount of weight. It was something I was working on. I found that my brain was limiting me, not my physical abilities. It's odd to consider but since I didn't expect to be able to lift a car, I couldn't lift a car. In reality I can lift way more than a car, I just have to know that I can do it.
So here I was, wearing a kilt and nothing else, moving large items into a couple huge roll-offs to be sent to a scrap yard and the dump. There was broken masonry things and then also stuff that people had dumped on the property like busted appliances they didn't want to pay for the disposal on. They tossed it out here and so now I was paying for the disposal on it instead of them. I didn't really mind that. If they didn't have enough money to pay for disposal, I understand the discarded appliances. Not that I condone such things, but if you need to decide between feeding your family or properly disposing of a ruined microwave oven, it's an easy decision.
I went about just straightening out the property, not the overgrown courtyard, we will be keeping that wild, just around the buildings. While I moved junk around I considered how the last few days had gone: The rest of our group were doing their best to form Trinity Pack and that meant my Ebony was working her pink cock through the lot of them. Our group was mostly women, numbering a dozen and there were only 8 men. Technically, I was not a pack member so really, there were 7 men. I had moved into the school building on Monday which is our 4 story future apartment building, but not into a space I wanted, that will come in due time. I just grabbed a temporary spot for now.
Me moving here was about keeping me away from the public since I was suddenly one of the tallest men in the world. A doctor has declared me stricken with a form of poliosis where my pigment proteins all turn white and a glandular disorder causing gigantism or giantism, I'm not sure what the difference is. I never actually visited this doctor, it was all arranged by The Council. I still need to keep away from people for a while and give enough time for my height to happen somewhat naturally. So, I just moved in here at Trinity. My high school diploma will be mailed and it certainly appears that I wrote a graduation speech I will never orate. That's just fine, since I remember how much fun my practice run on that speech was. All that really mattered was the future.
I saw Tony pull up as I was mulling over things. He had a big dually truck and I was close enough to open the gate and let him drive in so he parked next to the school building.
"Hello, Sir. ". I greeted him with a hand shake. He was a broad-chested, long haired native American looking man. He was strong with a firm jaw and kind of a big head though he was handsome in a Native American almost Marlborough Man; rugged handsome sort of way.
He took my hand and replied, "Please, call me Tony. My God, Ivory, you really did get huge. That is scary, son. Tall and jacked.". I grinned down at Tony as he continued, "I'm normally the big guy in the group. Are you the tallest person in the world now? And your voice fell through the floor too. Damn!"
"No, there is a Turkish man I think that is an inch or two taller. Something like that. I don't know if he is a warlock. Enough about me, what do you think of Trinity here?". I was eager to get everyone's focus on making this place a home. I wanted real rooms.
"This is a fantastic property, Ivory. I've checked it out before. All these buildings have good bones. Turning this into your pack property is the perfect idea. It makes a ton of sense on many levels"
I smiled at Tony's excitement. "I am reassured that you think it's a good plan."
"Well, son, I think you are going to make a fine home here. Let's go inside so I can get a better feel for your rough plans. April will put it on drawings but I want to feel what your vision is so we can all make sure we are on the same page.". Tony was all smiles. His raven hair caught some sunlight and blue highlights played across the surface and it made me think how different he and I must look. I clapped him on the back and we entered the four story school.
"I was thinking that on the ground floor we need some fitness areas for resistance training and cardio as well as martial arts since I'm big into that. Then we fit as many condos in here as we can. Most likely two stories stacked on each other and then some 2 bed 2 bath flats? ". I kind of let that hang in the air open ended to see what Tony thought.
"That makes sense. Ground floor for exercising. We could install garage doors down here too instead of fixing windows and repairing walls. That would allow you to open up the building at the push of a button and let fresh air in as well as save a lot of masonry work. We can fit a lot of condos in here too. Are you aware that there are 2 basement levels in this building?". Tony raised one eyebrow at me.
'No I didn't realize. I thought it was just one."
"Well, Ivory, I think the very bottom is flooded. It's something we can investigate in the future. Something will need to be done with that. Perhaps you could check that out when you get a chance. If I remember correctly, all the buildings have 2 underground floors connected with tunnels. Just be careful down there. Nobody's been down there for decades."
We continued the tour through the school and then we approached the rectory. "What are you going to do with this. It's 3 floors above and 2 below of useable space.". Tony entered the building as he asked.
"I think our budget will get us through the schoolhouse and we won't be able to touch this for a while.". I answered.
"I see. That makes sense. It's good not to overextend yourself. It looks like a good building for administrative offices and has a good street front entrance if you were going to consider any kind of storefront or community access from the neighborhood. Perhaps a future cafeteria or something. I would recommend perhaps a way to socialize with the city in some way. Warlocks serve their people. Somehow you will need to learn what the people need too.". Tony looked at me for a moment as we came to a tiny chapel in the corner of the rectory. "You can be any type of warlock you choose to be, Ivory.".
Tony's dark eyes looked up at me and I got a sense of weight from his gaze. "The range from supervillain to superhero is yours, young man. You get to choose your path. I like that you started on hallowed ground, particularly since my daughter will be living here with you.". He paused for a while as we exited the rectory before admiring the overgrown courtyard and he chose to continue at that point. "Tell me, Ivory, will this be a polyamorous property? Specifically, will there be a chance for me to get grandkids from you? I know that this is an odd question from a dad but I've always known my daughter to be uninterested in boys so I just assumed I would never be a grandpa. This," he motioned to the property around us as we walked, "has given me some hope. Is it possible?". He looked up at me with the expectation that I was going to give him bad news.
