#lilia and malmal as dads to mini dragons are so interesting bc it's probably so different from taking care of a human baby

🐉: "I am actually more impressed you managed to dig through stone."

The boy didn't say anything and just continued cowering against his dad's leg; tail tucked between his own. Malleus laughed under his breath and glanced at the mini-dragon-sized hole in the floor his son undoubtedly dug in a bored frenzy.

🐉: "Your great-grandmother is going to be so, so mad. We will have to make sure her underlings do not see--"

🦇: "Has any of you seen my other pair of pink sock? The one with the bat prints?"

Swifter than a sparrow, the dad fished some pillows from the nearby couch and threw them over the hole; pretending as if they were just about to take an afternoon nap on the cool ground.

🐉: "No. And why are you missing one? Just get a new pair."

🦇: "Okay~"

He could have just magicked the hole away, really. It'd have taken less than a second. But, he supposed as he met his son's gaze with a mischievous snicker-- he simply enjoyed the feeling of sharing a harmless secret with his little boy.

Perhaps he'll teach him how to cover up pot holes when they're sure no one's looking anymore.
