I know but you'll have time to. Like I said, this won't be the only time we do this.

[ Seeing him start to eat prompts little cheers from the kids, glad that he seems to like it - and Lapis' own smile brightens in response.

She only has an idea of just how alone he was, back in the Order, but now that will never happen again. Every event, every little thing, will be celebrated with his family. ]

Good, you deserve to be celebrated. And me and others will keep making sure that it happens.

[ He'll do a little chuckle as the poke-children run and bounce in delighted little circles--reaching out to pat Haneul next, even if the top-hatted little bird barely stays still long enough to allow it. ]

I look forward to it. And every little celebration from now on.

You all did an amazing job with the food. It's delicious.

Now, surely I'm not the only one eating. Should I share my bounty?

[ It's hard not to giggle at how excited the little ones are, her smile brightening that little bit more. ]

Ah, they did eat the first few... attempts at this. [ She learned not to leave the batter unattended. ] But I'm certain they wouldn't mind if I put something small together.

[ Cue more happy little chirps from the two - they can eat with dad! Considering how much they already ate, some toast with berries should be enough. ]

And that's all for you, you don't need to share it!

Ah, you attempted several times...
You guys really tried to get it perfect, huh?

[ he's letting out a little laugh as he continues to dig in--doing his best to not talk with a mouthful of waffle and whipped cream. ]

Ah...
It's a force of habit to want to share everything these days.

Well, we wanted you to have the best.

[ And they had fun with it too. Even if it took a few tries, Lapis didn't mind at all - and the pokekids were certainly excited at making something new. Especially since it was for Jinwoo.

So now she pushes herself onto her feet, going to put a mini breakfast together. Though not before she pokes a finger against his cheek. ]

I know, but this is all for you. Today is your day, after all.

And I'll make sure to make your favourites for dinner too.

[ ah, his eyes flick up and widen a bit if he's poked. there's this sparkle to the glowing purple irises as he follows her with his eyes once she goes to put together a small breakfast for the two pokemon who are definitely eyeing his breakfast. ]

--I get spoiled for dinner, too?

Ah, this Father's Day thing should happen every year.

[ its hard to tell if this is a joke or not. ]

[ Seeing that sparkle prompts her smile to brighten, though to does reach over to gently pat the pokemon who are eyeing the waffles. She'll need to make sure they don't sneak a bite when Jinwoo isn't looking... ]

Mmhm, good thing this is a yearly holiday then!

[ As if she won't find excuses to spoil him other times as well - ]

So if you have any requests for dinner, make sure to let me know.

Haha, ah, how could I forget. Holidays come once every year...
Which me and the little ones need to start thinking about Mother's day soon, then. I think that comes first.

[ his smirk widens juuust a little. ]

...

Ah.
Do... you think we could have hot pot? We could invite Husk. It IS father's day for him too, after all. I'd ... like to say thank you for being a good dad to you. [ a pause. ] ...and me, too.

[ There's a brief flush across her cheeks in response, her smile turning a little sheepish now. ]

I-I'll be fine with anything, really...

[ She's still bad at attention being focused on her-

But now she perks up, when he tells her what he wants. Already plotting where they could go - there is that nice place in the city they go to often, if she calls now she should be able to book a spot for them... ]

Of course, and I'm pretty sure dad would enjoy that too. He really has been great to both of us... He really does care about you a lot, even if he's grumpy sometimes.

After all he's been through, I think he gets a grumpy pass. Besides, I think it's part of his charm.

Especially when he acts grumpy with the kids around. They sit and bounce around him and he tries so hard to look annoyed, even when Azzura is being the cutest thing in the world...

I've seen him pet her head. He thinks I didn't see. But I saw it.

Dad wouldn't be Dad if he wasn't at least a little grumpy.

[ And her words trail off into a gentle chuckle. ]

Not even he can resist how cute she is. He really is soft underneath all that grump...

[ Her smile turns a little more softer now, something more fond. ]

And after everything he's been through, it's nice... To see him just be grumpy and grouchy without having any stress. Without worrying about me or anything else.

Mmm...

Maybe we should do something special for him too.

He's your dad, but. Given he lives with us now, he...

[ ...is it awkward, to think ... ]

He's also going to be my father in law when we get married.

[ is it... awkward to assume that it'd be okay?

To refer to him as Dad, too? ]

We should. I have made something for him, but he does deserve something extra special today too.

[ So if he wants Taco Bell today too she won't... fuss too much. At least not outwardly.

And she notices that hesitation, and she smiles gently as she leans over and nudges an arm against his. ]

He is... So, I don't think he would mind if you called him "Dad."
