Grayson sighed with relief once he pulled the door to Pegasus's room closed; he didn't blame his son for being fussy about sleeping in a new place after a long day, he was pretty wired himself even though most of his day had consisted of riding in cars and carrying his son to keep him out of the way. It'd been fun watching Proteus 'playing human' the whole time, his partner was still adorably fumbly sometimes with customs and phrasing and it never failed to make Grayson adore him more. They'd closed the day with pizza from the closest place that delivered, amused themselves watching Pegasus try to gnaw his way through a breadstick with precisely two teeth, and then calmed him down in a nice bath.
He came back downstairs, scrubbing fingers along his scalp as he chuckled quietly. "Finally out... I had to dig in the boxes to find his little octopus lovey." Hearing Proteus speak he looked up, expression briefly perplexed before he let out a high laugh, moving to wind his arms up around his lover's neck.
"God, how could I be so callous -- fussing about the baby when you've been such an amazing man all day..." He nuzzled under Proteus's jaw. "Pick a surface."
