[She smiles softly before nodding. So that answers that question.]

The least we could do is replace what we drink.

[graveflowers]

It would be only fair. I'll grab the cake, you grab the baby. [ YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND VI AND CAKE. also she is grabbing that cake rn. ]

[allmydreams]

Done.

[And with that she will scoop up Lucia (handle animal 12) and letting her settle against her shoulder before turning to follow Vi back towards the castle.]

[graveflowers]

[ lucia is like NO BUT I LOVE THE GROUND but then idk felicity smells good so she gets over it and let's her auntie carry her inside.

meanwhile vi cradles the cake and sigh happily. ] I love cake.

[allmydreams]

Cake is probably the most important of all the food groups.

[Felicity, cake is not a food group.]

Especially for birthdays.

[graveflowers]

[ um, it is. ]

And every other day of the week. It's the most important every day.

[allmydreams]

[She nods in agreement, as Lucia gets that tight baby grip around one of her fingers.]

Cake is the food against which all other foods are measured.

[graveflowers]

If cake was a person, I would marry it. I told Luthir that once. He laughed at me because I'm an idiot, but I think he knew I was being dead serious.

[allmydreams]

It's funny how people underestimate our love of baked goods. I don't think they understand how many emotions we have about them.

[graveflowers]

Me and cake is family. Closer than John Green and chicken nuggets.

[allmydreams]

I believe it. And once Lucia has teeth and can handle food that is not soup, she will learn the same.

[graveflowers]

Her birthday is going to be hilarious.

[allmydreams]

[She laughs.]

So many pictures of a baby who decided they wanted to bathe in cake.

[graveflowers]

She's going to hate us when she's older and dating...

[allmydreams]

[She laughs.]

Probably, yeah. But eventually she'll realize that we embarrass her out of love and get over it. Or maybe she'll be lucky and have no shame.

[graveflowers]

Oh, that would be awesome. Have you met Faith O'Keefe? I wouldn't mind Lucia having that sheer joy and bright outlook.

[allmydreams]

[She starts to shake her head at first because ... she has but she doesn't quite remember her (wisdom 6). She does remember her mom though, so there's a reason that name is familiar (wisdom 19).]

I went on my first mission with an Anastasia O'Keefe.

[graveflowers]

Yeah, that's Faith's mom! Anyway, Faith is like this bright ray of sunshine, she can find the good in anything. It's amazing.

[allmydreams]

[She nods with a small smile.]

Optimism is good. Important, even.

[graveflowers]

It is and I suck at it, so seeing Faith just exude it is... it's something.

[allmydreams]

[She nods with a small smile.]

Kind of like you hope it'll roll off on you?

[graveflowers]

Exactly. She's fucking inspiring.

[allmydreams]

[She nods in agreement.]

Sounds like a great role model to me.
