[ Riku's found herself lying on a couch in one of the common rooms that isn't frequented very often. There's a baby bag on the floor beside her, and a baby on her stomach. Aden's looking quite happy and awake right now, a small blanket thrown over his back (in case she needs to hastily cover him). Mommy's chest makes for a good pillow, and he has a rattle clutched in one hand, which he is occasionally using to smack her in the chin.

Riku's got her eyes on the hand-drawn December calendar she's holding - the date written at the top is several years into the future. ]

[Might want to hide that baby, there's a snake slithering in with a Red following after it! It escaped :(]

[dawningcoast]

[Riku's reaction time is immediate! Being covered makes Aden laugh, and the rattle sticks out the edge.]

mommy party!

[Akane hasn't gotten to meet Aden yet! Neither has Larx, for that matter. Since they happened to be passing this way, she'll stop by to say hello.]

Looks like he's doing well.

/o/

[dawningcoast]

[Riku glances over at them, and she looks... pretty relaxed, surprisingly.]

So far so good. How's she doing?

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

Pretty good.

[She doesn't want to mention the kidnapping now that it's done with.]

[dawningcoast]

Good.

[She'll give half a smile, in that case, as Aden beats the rattle against her chest.]

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

She's already walking, kind of.

[dawningcoast]

That's good. Gotten into anything she shouldn't yet?

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

I've been keeping an eye on her.

[dawningcoast]

I figured--

[Smacked in the face with rattle.]

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

[snickers]

He's off to a good start.

[dawningcoast]

Apparently.

[He squeals. And does it again!]

[lightning-larx.livejournal.com]

Definitely. What's his name?

[Akane isn't showing much interest in the other baby so far.]

[dawningcoast]

[She's going to get a bruise at this rate. Riku picks him up around the middle and shifts so she's sitting up.]

Aden.

[before]

[He's totally ignoring her and grabbing that snake first before standing, blinking at her. He clearly didn't expect to run into her again.]

8D

[skybright]

[BZUH.]

[dawningcoast]

[Yeah, she wasn't expecting to see him, either. She drops the calendar on the floor, draping both hands over Aden's back.]

Things escaping?

[dawningcoast]

[Shit shit. Riku will quickly use the calendar to block Aden's face and pull up the blanket, hoping Sora didn't see his face.]

[skybright]

You've got a baby!

[dawningcoast]

... Yeah?

[A baby who is making giggly, squealing noises.]

[before]

Not mine, surprisingly! Saw it slithering into a different room and decided to grab it.

[Annnd it is now unconscious and stuffed into his jacket.]

[skybright]

[whyyyyyyyyyyy



omg baby noises.]

Can I see?

[dawningcoast]

[Nods, rubbing Aden's back a little.]

Nice.

[dawningcoast]

[Shakes her head, looking somewhat apologetic.]

I don't think that's a good idea, Sora.

[before]

I figured it'd be better than letting someone get bitten. That thing was definitely venomous.
