Disclaimer I do not own Adventure Time this is a story just for fun.

At Marceline's house everybody was home for the day. Betty was fixing dinner, Simon was reading a book, and Marceline was stringing her guitar. A few feet in front of the house Hunson appeared in a cloud of smoke. He had a bunch of flowers in his hand. He pulled out a mirror to check his hair and to make sure he didn't have anything in his teeth. After that he breathed on his hand to check to see if his breath was bad.

"Everything seems to be in order. Time to make a first good impression." Thought Hunson.

"Why are you bothering with first impressions! Just suck up Simon and Betty's souls and take Marceline back to the Nightosphere! Your The Lord of Evil! Just get angry and jealous!" Shouted the weird voice in his head.

Hunson consider this a moment then shook his head like crazy.

"No! I'm going to be civil! Diplomacy and talking things out are the best ways to go. If I use force Marceline will hate me. I just need to talk with them and after that I'm going to get some therapy." Said Hunson.

"You pathetic coward." Muttered the voice.

Hunson ignored it and knocked on the front door. Marceline came and answered it. Her eyes lit up and she hugged Hunson.

"Hey dad!" She said.

"Hey Marceline. Just dropped by for a visit." Said Hunson as he returned the hug.

Simon and Betty appeared in the doorway. Marceline stopped hugging and introduced everyone.

"Simon. Betty. This is my biological father Hunson Abadeer. Dad these are my guardians Simon and Betty." Said Marceline.

"Nice to meet you." Said Betty as she stuck out her hand.

Hunson shook it and gave Betty the flowers.

"Nice to meet you to. Here are some lovely flowers for you and your home." Said Hunson as he turned up the charm.

"Oh there lovely. Thank you very much." Said Betty as she took the flowers.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet one of Marceline's parents." Said Simon as he stuck his hand out.

Hunson shook it. As Simon and Hunson were shaking hands, Simon noticed something strange floating by Hunson's ear. It appeared to be a tiny humanoid figure about an inch tall it features masked in shadows. The figure turned to look in Simon's direction. It realized that Simon could see it. Simon blinked and the figure disappeared.

"I'm either very tired or my wizard eyes are acting up." Thought Simon.

"It's great to meet the people who've raised Marceline in my absence." Said Hunson.

"Would you like to join us for diner?" Asked Betty. "Were having pasta." She said.

"I love to. But I don't want to impose." Said Hunson.

"Perish the thought. We have plenty of food." Said Betty.

"Alright I'll join you." Said Hunson.

"Cool. I have so much to tell you." Said Marceline.

They all went inside the house. Inside the Nightosphere amulet the figure was fuming a little.

"That was close! That Simon guy was able to see my shadow! He must have some kind of magic in his body! This could be a problem, I must tread lightly. I just have influence Hunson's negative emotions a little more and I'll finally be free of this prion." Said the figure.
