#(thanks again!)

---------------------Malleus--------------------

It's been a few months since you were isekai'd, along with your now living child. Safe to say you've been enjoying yourself immensely! Malleus has been as well, this is better than his wildest dreams!

Back through the screen, he had once only hoped for you to arrive and be by his side. But with his current bliss, he can see now that those were small dreams compared to what truly happened.

That plush toy you had so loved, transformed into a smaller version of himself. Now they are both of your child, and a lovable menace to say the least. And though he's loath to admit, Lilia was obviously not exaggerating when he spoke of how he acted as a young dragon.

He can see it in how they scurry through the halls of Diasomnia, while playing chase with his retainers. Or how they bump into and break things during their clumsy attempts at flight. Or how utterly precious they are, sleeping on their hoard of plushies, gifted by you. (It's obvious they got their love of the things from you as well)

But by far his favorite moments are when he comes back to the dorm and catches you two asleep, on a plush rocking chair gifted to you by Maleficia herself. The little one in their dragon form, wrapped around your neck with their head under your chin. And your hand reached up to hold them.

He will never wake you if he catches you like that, and will ensure no one else could as well. Completely locking the room down with magic, as he basks in the tender moment. He's given Sebek quite the fright doing that, but he won't have anyone disturbing you.

While those are his favorite moments, there are others that stand out as well. For example he vividly remembers one evening while you all were walking and stargazing together. ...well you and Malleus were stargazing, the little one was just curled up in your jacket to stay warm. ...honestly he's a little jealous...

But that wasn't the moment he remembers so fondly, though he certainly loves it as well. No that moment happened during the walk, when he heard something rustling in the bushes. He dismissed initially, likely just a small animal. But the little one did not.

No they seemed to immediately tense up, the spines on their back raising as they poked their head out from the jacket and hissed at the bush the noise came from. Both of you would've thought it just an adorable moment, if not for what happened next.

A small spark, then a tiny green flame appeared in their mouth. Then... WOOSH, the bush goes up in green flames, as a terrified squirrel dashes out from it. Both of your eyes go wide as you realize what's just happened.

"was that...?"

Malleus: "their first time breathing fire! My, I'm very proud of you! ...although it took me several decades to reach that level... I think we have a prodigy on our hands."

"this is both amazing and concerning."

Malleus: "we'll have to fireproof the dorm.'

"right away."

Malleus: "but we both agree this is a tremendous moment, correct?"

"oh absolutely!"

That moment, along with several other, has been recorded in the royal archives (read - glorified baby scrapbook) and is one he visits often. Though he still much prefers spending his time with you instead of just reminiscing over the records. He knows just how precious this time with you is.

So he'll keep recording these memories, while treasuring all the small moments with you and the little one. And he'll make sure he doesn't let this time go to waste, and fill every moment with joy and laughter.

Leona: "honey, why is the child covered in your lipstick?"

"have you SEEN THEM!?"

Leona: "...fine, but you're the one giving them a bath."

"eh, fair trade."

Mini Leona: "heh, you're just jealous cause I'm their favorite!"

Leona: "haha, big talk coming from a little furball."

Mini Leona: "I don't see any kisses on you!"

Leona: "oh yeah? One sec."

Much to your shock, he leans over to you. Cupping your face before leaning in for a kiss. Making your child gag in disgust.

Mini Leona: "that doesn't count!"

Leona: "really? Cause I think I now have a kiss right here."

Leona points to his lips, which do now have a bit of your lipstick on them. Which makes your child pout and turn away, but not before sticking their tongue out at him. Meanwhile you're still in shock.

"...what just happened!?"

Leona: "I was feeling a little left out, can you blame me?"

"oh my goodness. ...next time just ask..."

Leona: "will do~"

"you didn't have to say it so smugly!"

Leona just laughs at your indignant tone, and eventually you join him. Your child is last, still pouting a little. But they don't want to miss out on whatever's so funny, so they come over and stop pouting. Acting like they're above all this, but eventually smiling as well.
