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.

[crisantemo]

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.

[lowestclass]

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? ]

[crisantemo]

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."
