#daddy patton

No matter what I say about this man, THIS era will always be my favourite, above any other.

Remus : oh man, that's some good wine.. I'm getting horny man.

Patton : you okay, kiddo?

Remus : is dad becoming daddy?

Virgil was not having it, today. Everything was too loud and too complicated, including his own voice, so he just wasn’t going to use it. He’d been sitting, arms crossed, and pouting on the couch for the better part of the day. Roman had draped a blanket over him earlier (yes, all the way over him), but that was as much interaction as Virgil had accepted. Patton had passed him a few times, asking him a question now and again, turning them simpler once he realized the headspace Virgil was in. 

Unfortunately, Virgil didn’t possess the will to talk right now. He knew he should, Daddy said words were the only way to know things, but how was Virgil supposed to say anything when words felt like static? It was too hard. Virgil groaned, frustrated at the world and at himself. He wrapped his blanket tighter around himself, his tummy grumbling with hunger. He’d skipped breakfast, despite Patton’s best efforts. When Virgil got in a mood, it was a challenge to get him to do anything at all. Patton was grateful to get Virgil out of his room. 

Peering around the corner into the living room, Patton cocked his head. “Kiddo?” he asked, wiping his hands a towel. Virgil didn’t look at him, so Patton sighed and walked towards the couch. “Virgil, are you hungry?” Patton tried again. Virgil nodded, wordless. Patton hummed and knelt in front of Virgil. “Hey, can you use your words for me?” Virgil shook his head, stubborn. 

Taking on a sterner tone, Patton rested a hand on Virgil’s knee. “Virgil, you can use your words like a big boy. Tell daddy what you want.”

Virgil looked up at the tone, eyes round. He stuck out his lower lip in a pout, but Patton waited patiently for a few moments, until Virgil found his voice. Quietly, almost whispering, Virgil spoke. “...chicken nuggets.” 

Patton grinned and stood, pressing a kiss to Virgil’s head. “Good boy. It’ll be ready in a few minutes, okay?” 

I love him infinitely
