She nodded to them. "Vars will you be staying with us?"
Vars didn't give Viktor a chance to answer and nodded. "We'd be grateful."
"You two can stay in the guest room." She knew those two would probably be on their own exploring the city aside from the dinner times. "Joe, would you like to stay in Aarne's room?"
She knew her child and if he loved this man, then he would not mind the Brit staying in his space.
Viktor wasn't going to disagree about staying because Joe needed them all by his side during his stay here in Finland. The punk was happy to stay along with Vars while Joe did what he needed to do.
"Yeah, I'd love that. I think---he'd want me in his room."
Joe managed a small smile at the idea of staying in Aarne's room because it felt right. His nerves still hampering his mood and Viktor could sense this must be one of the hardest things Joe had done in his life. Being sober and getting married. Fuck.
"Ávrá, dear." Násti called to her daughter. "Can you show these three to their rooms?"
In bounded a little girl, not more than 5 years old but she already looked like Aarne. Wild dark hair on top of her head, huge green eyes, and lanky, all legs as she bounced in place while staring up at the newcomers. Vars got a smile from her and a big hug around his waist. They had met before when she was younger. The little girl remembered.
"This is my partner Viktor and your brother's partner Joe." Vars introduced the little girl. Ávrá went over and gave Viktor a huge hug too. She would get to Joe but Viktor was closer so he got the next hug.
Joe noticed the little girl now bounding into the room. This had to be Aarne's younger sister, Ávrá. She was adorable and Joe's face instantly lit up at seeing her because he'd seen photos before but now she was here in person. Viktor also smiled at the little girl and patted her head gently.
Ávrá looked between the two Brits and giggled at thier funny accents.
Staring up at Joe she smiled. "näytät Aarnelta." Ávrá didn't speak as much English as she understood but after a few seconds of considering she wrapped her arms around Joe's waist to hug him.
Joe thought Ávrá was adorable and realised he was gaining a baby sister which caused a pang of excitement to build up inside of him like a warm glow. He wasn't going to be an only child anymore! Her words caused him to smile because the Brit had learned a little bit of Finnish over the time he'd spent with Aarne.
"You think so? Is it the hair? My crazy attitude? Or---Ehkä kaikki?"
The bassist tried to make sure his pronunciation was on cue as he spoke Finnish to Aarne's little sister.
Joe wanted to say more things in Finnish because perhaps it would increase his respect from Aarne's mother if she heard him at least trying their language. The Brit smiling at the chest pat.
"Kiitos, pikkuinen."
He hoped he said it right as he looked across towards Vars.
