Leaves, huh...

[hmmm maybe he can stand up a little taller and summon a Feint and an axe to his hand. It's a little awkward to hold with these oversized talons, but the Feint hops up higher and starts chopping off large branches from around them - while Nero prime catches them.

Hands some to Shrike, so she can start placing them.]

[ she gamely starts tucking them in around the perimeter of their makeshift nest, larger ones to the bottom and smaller ones to the outside. ]

I think that'll hold...

[ she tests it by putting the weight of one foot on it to see if it'll hold; it does. ]

[Nero thankfully is much lighter than usual. Hollow bones~]

Do we need any more of the big ones?

I think... with all those staves, we're probably fine unless someone else touches it?

[ at that point her feint comes trotting back, and tosses a bundle up to her—blankets from the dorm. ]

And now we're taken care of for the soft part.

...You know I didn't think about that.

[OH WELL! He helps lay out the blankets all around them, until it's nice and comfy]

Startin' to look nice enough t'lay eggs in.

Hah—it really does, doesn't it?

[ tugs him down with her to curl up on the blankets. we're birds now ]

Nothing wrong with this at all.

[WE'RE BIRDS NOW

He tucks his talons under him and fluffs into birb form, leaning against her and draping his good arm over them both like a blanket.]

Comfy?

Incredibly.

[ she cranes her head over to give him a peck (ha ha) on the cheek. ]

Better way to hide up in the trees, I think. Great company, great view.

...someday we'll have a real home we'll build together, right?

[He laughs, and responds with a peck on her cheek in return]

Like, literally build? We might have to hire a plumber.

I meant more metaphorically, although it seems like in my heart of hearts I do want to learn how to do some things myself, at least a little.

You did have an entire farm in that dream of yours. It was really impressive, actually.

...honestly all that was kind of ambitious to think of doing on my own... though I suppose I felt like I needed something to fill the days.

Maybe not a whole farm. I'd like a garden.

And a garden you shall have.

We'll grow our own herbs for cooking, and have flowers at the windowsill.

And have friends and family over for dinner all the time, and have a little cat...

...didn't you have designs on having a dog, too? I seem to remember that from the very elaborate pitch you gave me at that wedding roleplay live.

[Nuzzle nuzzle]

Good catch. Yeah, I think the kids would love havin' a dog around.

Can't believe you still remember everything in that drunken spiel.

For some reason I was playing very close attention!

...do you think they'll all like me?

I think they'll climb all over you like monkeys, and argue about whose turn it is t'be swung around on those arms of yours.

Pfft, that's really... something, isn't it.

But—I think I'd love it.

...I didn't think I'd have children.

Honestly, neither did I. Didn't think I'd make a good dad.

I think we can safely say that doesn't bear out in practice.

Doing pretty well managing the rest of your family, too.

I'm not sure how much actual managing I'm doing. S'more like my existence gives these dads one thing they agree on.

Vergil's having a number of emotions higher than what you can count on one hand now. I think you had some hand in that.

I think his boyfriend's mostly to blame, for that. What with the way he interrogates him relentlessly about his feelings. It's terrifying, even for me - and I'm an open book.

Ahaha... he does sound like he'd be a menace.

...you know, I don't know if I've really spoken with him, much. I wonder if I should.

Only if you're prepared for him to pry about your life, your hobbies, your dreams for the future, all your relationships and what you hope for them... and that's just the primer.
