[ There is a Riku sitting on the beach, completely soaked. But she hasn't been in the water. It's raining loudly, thunder cracking across the ocean. There's an open and abandoned umbrella at her side, and the sand all around her is smooth and clear, except for the messy remains of her footsteps. It gives the feeling that everything's been washed clean. Propped up against the doorway sits a stroller; yes, she has her baby with her, but unlike his mother, he's quite protected, bundled up in a tiny raincoat and extra clothes underneath. He's quite safe. And while that coat has a hood, that's all there is to shielding his face. There's no point in hiding him anymore. ]

[It definitely is nice to not have to worry about being seen anymore. He enjoys it.]

[dawningcoast]

[She does, too. It's just... weird. She's not used to it yet. It shouldn't be that long of a walk back to their room, though.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Nope, and as soon as they're there, he's heading on in.]

[dawningcoast]

[She is heading straight for the closet, kicking her shoes off... somewhere.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[He'll entertain babby while she's getting changed!]

[dawningcoast]

[Soon enough he is getting a towel tossed over his head. It smells like rainwater and Riku's shampoo.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Mmmm Rikusmell. I mean.]

[dawningcoast]

[Uh huh. Now that she has successfully distracted him, Aden is getting investigated for potential dirty diapers.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Well you have fun with that, he's going to get out of wetclothing too.]

[dawningcoast]

[Oh, she totally is. :| Well, he's getting a fresh diaper either way, for comfort's sake.]

[What a good mommy Riku makes~. ♥ He's coming back all changed in a moment.]

[dawningcoast]

[He will find her holding a freshly changed Aden close to her.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Well he'll make his way over to them!]

[dawningcoast]

[He's getting a soft smile. Poor Aden is probably all tuckered out.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Pff. Brushes a hand over Aden's head gently.]

Someone looks a little tired.

[dawningcoast]

I think he's ready for a nap. You want to put him down?

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[He'll take Aden from her carefully whenever she's ready to hand him over.]

[dawningcoast]

[Now's a good time. It's not that she doesn't like doing it, but it's good to share.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[How thoughtful. He's going to take Aden and set about putting him to bed now.]

[dawningcoast]

[Good, and when he does that, she'll go collapse in a chair.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Does she need a shoulder massage or something-]

wtf I missed this one

[dawningcoast]

[No, she's good. Just tired. This happens a lot lately.]

D:< /what

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[...She's getting a massage anyway, because he's awesome like that.]

[dawningcoast]

[Ooooh. He certainly is, in that case.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

How are you handling everything?

[It's probably not the first time he's asked, and won't be the last by far.]
