Ciara laughed then paused and looked down, "She... She called me..." Motherly water works activate. "OH YOU'RE SO CUTE!." She rubbed her cheek against Ash's.

"Mmmmmmmeeeeeeea.. eee..." Lucas started making faces.
"Oh, I think someone's jealous."

((Lucas is a very smart baby if you hadn't noticed))

((How old are they?))

Pietro blinked, "Duuuddde, is she talking already?!"

(((Ummm... Like maybe 2-3 months.))

"Looks like it... Daddy says babies develop a bit different in the future. Can you say Dadda? Can you say Dadda?"

Ash tilted her head, looking a little confused at first. Pietro gained her attention and pointed at himself, "dada" he repeated, "daaaddaaa T_T oh common that's so not fair"

Ash blinked, then smiled and reached towards Pietro, "DADA!"

"Very good, Ashie." She past Ash off to Pietro after giving her several little kisses.

Lucas was still trying, "Megotuionggggg..."

Ash snuggled into a surprised Pietro's shoulder, "Wooowww, that's one smart baby. I'm gonna have to start watching what I say way earlier than I thought!"

"Yes, yes you are." She kissed his cheek.

Lucas started to cry, getting rather frustrated as he continued to try.

"Oh, hey now.."

"Aww, my little boy" Pietro kissed his head, "You're doing just great to"

Lucas settled down after a few mins of encouragement, "...Gr-owwul?" He looked up at both of them.

Pietro laughed, "Yes little man, you are very fierce!"

Ciara laughed and cheered, "Who's a little Tiger?"
"Growul! Growlgrowlgrowl!" He replied, poking and giggling.

Sabertooth poked his head into the room, raising a curious brow.

"Growl! Gr-Gr-Growl!" He giggled with glee, smiling widely.

Ciara followed little Lucas' glaze, "You're in big trouble Mister. His first word was Growl." She pouted playfully.

"<_<....>_>...." Sabertooth just grinned a little and disappeared.

"OH no you don't! Take responsibility!" Ciara got up and raced after him, Lulu grring all the way. Ciara chased Sabertooth all over the house.

Pietro chuckled, shaking his head a little as he put Ash back in the fabric container so he could keep working.

((Eric is always pushing his pelvis out! >//<


))

Ciara somehow cornered Sabertooth. She held Lucas up, "Grrr! <3" He exclaimed happily.

((He's just lounging))

"-_-.... grrrrrr" Sabertooth growled.

((But it's like every pic I find of him 'lounging' his junk is like BAM!))

Lucas smiled, "GRRR!" He reached out and pouted when he couldn't reach him.

Sabertooth glared, "don't you dare"

Lucas produced the biggest baby eyes known to man and sniffled, reaching with all his might.

Ciara wrapped his lower half in water and floated him over.

Lucas put a hand on each of Sabertooth's cheeks and stared at him. "Grr <3" He said before yawning.

A low angry growl vibrated in Sabertooth's throat, "Get it away from me before I bite it's head off"

Little Lucas pulled his hands away and pouted rather angrily at Sabertooth. "Gr!"

"Alright, Alright. I think that's enough tormenting the lion for one day." Ciara said scooping Lucas out of the water and carried him off. Little Lulu looking over her shoulder, grring and pouting the entire time.

((Lucas: YOU'RE A BIG MEANIE! I just wanna be friends!))

((lol, Sabertooth doesn't have friends))

Sabertooth stuck his tongue out at Lucas when Ciara wasn't watching.

((When Lucas starts crawling...Look out Sabertooth))

Ciara headed back upstairs to Horatio's room, Little Lulu getting rather sleepy, "How about we put you down in the playpen with Maxie? Hmm?"

"Ggrrooo goo." As he started to fall asleep.

"And how's our newest patient here at the Eric manor hospital?" Ciara asked as she walked into the room.
