Vion and Lia looked to each other, each not knowing what to say or who would speak first. Lia glanced over to Razor, trying to read his expression but to little avail. He seemed to be having fun poking at her considering the deeds they were about to commit before dinner so rudely interrupted them. Lia was the one to break the silence as she slowly sliced into the meat the servants had so carefully given her. “Well, Vion may be interested to know how his father decided that he wanted to wrestle with me,” she commented with a click of her tongue, knife slicing through with ease. She set it down as she took her fork and periced the barely cooked meat, only to bring it up partway to her mouth. “I bet you can see clearly who would have won that fight Vion, but don’t let my small size fool you. I think i could have taken him on if we actually did get around to it.” Oh how he would like that one. Lia brought the piece of meat up to her lips and gently took a bite, letting the last of her words fill the air.
Vion was quick to comment, left wide-eyed in awe. “What?? Daddyyyyy! You’d kill her! That’s no fair!!” So innocent and pure, the child only saw Lia’s small stature compared to his father. If they had intended to wrestle, there was no doubt who’d win. Question was, why would dad choose someone he could beat without lifting a finger?
But still, the kid listened to the elders, eating his meal in peace as he looked to make sure Dagon was taken care of. He didn’t know what to think of Lia putting him to bed. She didn’t even know herself considering she barely even met the child. Never had she been in his room or really got to spend much time other than this. She could see he was trying, but it was a lot so quickly. Maybe it was the new engagement that got him all riled up, or their “wrestling” earlier.
At the prospect of stories and adventures from outside the castle, the bot perked up. His eyes grew as he looked to Lia in wonder, amazed that the possibilities and stories she could provide. “What?? Really?? Have you heard that they say about daddy?”
Lia only chuckled in response, giving the small demon a smile. “Why yes, yes I have though I’ll tell you all you want to know at bedtime.” She gave her new mate a small smirk as she took another bite of her meal. Vion, too giddy at his new storyteller, replied with a happy okay and went back to eating quickly so he could listen to Lia’s stories soon enough.
