Virgil sat at the wooden desk, chatting away and playing a game on the old monitor. Virgil and Janus had bought it for both Janus' office work and Virgil's job as a video maker. One would fill their own job quota for the time being while the other watched the two's child -- a toddler named Remy who the pair had adopted last year. 

   So there Virgil sat, talking and talking about whatever came to mind while running around Minecraft with a friend named Logan as well as another named Patton. It was when Virgil had been making bread that Remy came walking into the room, Janus tailing the two and a half year old with a laugh. 

   "Hey Virgil," They greeted, picking up Remy. The toddler looked at them, pushing up the sunglasses he refused to take off at pretty much any given time, and smacked Janus' forehead. "No, no, bad," Janus started, telling the little toddler it was bad to hit people, all while Virgil snickered. "Oh, hush," They jokingly said, a fond smile on their face.

   "Make me," The blonde chuckled. Looking to the monitor once more, Virgil apologized for the interruption, smiling while saying, "My lovely partner and my sassy toddler decided to drop by for a visit." 

   Then promptly gave an over the top (though clearly fake) screech as the toddler was placed on dark brown skirt fabric. Smiling as Remy pulled the flaps of the black sweater over himself, that smile only grew when Janus hugged Virgil around the shoulders with an arm.

   "Vi, you're being attacked by a skeleton!" Patton called through the headset, making Virgil loudly curse. That resulted in the blonde getting bopped in the face by the tiny, sassy son. Janus cackled as they hid their face in Virgil's shoulder and away from view of the facecam, calling out "revenge" for some unknown reason. 

   "Throw me in the ground like a corpse, my son wants to hang out with me," Virgil hurriedly said to the two other gamers, Remy pulling the headset away from his dad sitting in the chair, faintly hearing an "alright" and an "okie dokie" from Logan and Patton respectively. Virgil thanked them and went on to do the usual outro, notifying the future audience of any announcements or plugins before stopping the recording.

   Janus' laughter trailed off and they held the dress clad one closer, leaning forward to kiss the other's cheek. Remy made an offended noise, pushing his ren away from his dad and hugging Virgil.

   "What's wrong bud?" Janus scritched at Remy's head only to have their hand pushed away with a raspberry directed at them. Acting offended, they put a hand to their chest as their partner laughed. "Virgil," They started, sounding a bit like a holler. "Your child has disowned me as his father, and you shall have to raise him on your own." 

   "Your ren doesn't mean any of that," Virgil quietly assured Remy, small laughs still spilling from chipped, dull red lips. 

   "Oh, but I do," Janus continued, sarcastic and placing the back of their other hand to their forehead. "I've been wounded, brushed to the side; I shall never show face again."

   "Jan, you're hilarious," Virgil smirked, picking up Remy and holding him in the air. "Your father's so silly, aren't they?" Remy laughed, reaching for Virgil and seemingly ignoring the rhetorical question. 

   Janus chuckled as they looked over, placing their hands in the pockets of their black overalls. "I don't think he cares." They took out their phone, snapping a couple pictures of their two beloved ones before checking their notifications, seeing as their toddler didn't want to spend any more time with them. 

   "Yeah, he probably doesn't," Virgil agreed, somewhat jokingly, and went to take the headphones from the sassy, tiny toddler. That endeavour only found Remy with a way-too-big headset over his head, Janus taking another picture with a small laugh, and a joking comment of, "If we filmed our home life, we could make a whole series on your blog". Though, to tell the truth, none of it was minded in the slightest.

   Virgil's family meant the world to ein, and en loved spending everyday with, in the video maker's opinion, the best people in the world.
