It's Cute Baby Time again!

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

[Things are looking up: Larxene has her daughter back!

She didn't even have to fight for her, although she wants to go after Saïx anyway when she has the chance. A chance encounter with Romeo revealed that Saïx had given the baby to him unharmed, and he gave her back.

They're in the playroom now. While Larxene keeps a cautious eye on the surroundings, Akane's enjoying herself. She can't walk on her own yet, but she's figured out that she can pull herself upright using furniture and stumble along that way, and it seems to be pretty exciting for her.

That's right, kiddo. Make mommy proud, especially since she's not letting you out of her sight (even with a babysitter) for a while.]

[someone's dashing past the doorway, his arms full of shiny tinsel-like garlands when he comes to an abrupt halt when he suddenly bounces backward to land on his butt]

Oof!

[snickers]

Way to go, Roxas.

[summer_poprocks]

[there's garland everywhere now, and he's looking up in dismay at the mistletoe over the door]

I was hoping if I ran fast enough, they couldn't catch me.

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

You must be new.

[she doesn't really plan to get up and help him if she doesn't have to. D:]

[summer_poprocks]

[Heeee's perfectly fine with trying to dodge the inevitable.]

I've never seen them before now, if that's what you mean.

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

The mistletoe? They're here every year. Get used to it.

[summer_poprocks]

[Lets out a big sigh at that.]

It's no wonder we never decorated with it at home.

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

At home it probably didn't trap you.

[summer_poprocks]

I'd hope not. The whole kissing thing is more likely why, though.

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Sucks for you, having to wait here until someone comes by~ The doll, maybe.

[Akane crawls over to Larx, babbling at her happily.]

[summer_poprocks]

Doll?

[he's a little distracted by the baby, because he's never seen anyone with one here.]

now it occurs to me that my Larx might not know what Xion is. But hey.

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

You know. XIV.

[gives Akane one of her teething rings]

[summer_poprocks]

Fourteen what?

[derp.]

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[It's Larxene! And baby! He'd just been passing by with some clean laundry but he's gonna set it aside for now so he can step into the playroom and watch from the doorway.]

Hey...

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

[waves]

Hey. You can come over here, you know.

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

Mm, I suppose I can, heh. [He'll go over there by Larxene, then, watching Akane.] You got her back. What happened?

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

[Akane toddles back over to them, slowly, supporting herself by hanging on to the couch.]

I ran into Romeo and he had her.

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[Aww, Akane, you are so cute x3 ]

Saix just gave her back?

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

I didn't ask for details.

[Akane plops down next to mommy and stares up at Axel.]

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[He smiles down at her and kneels] Hey there...

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

["Da?"]

... I'm glad she's okay.

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

Me too...

Er, no, sweetie, I'm, uh... [He trails off, biting his lip. help him, mum, he doesn't know what to tell her.]

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

["Da!" Big baby grin.]

Wrong Axel, kiddo.

[Well. This is awkward.]

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[So cute, but so awkward. sigh.]

I'm... Axel. Not your daddy, hon...

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

See, Akane, your daddy doesn't have these scars on his face.

[gives a slightly strained laugh]

Haha, not like she knows what I'm talking about.
