THE NEXT MORNING:

As the sun rises from outside her bedroom, Loona stirs in her bed and slowly wakes up with a sharp-toothed yawn. After a few seconds of looking at Balin with her tired vision, her sweet smile turns to a bewildered look, seeing Blitzø back in her room with a plate on her chair.

BLITZØ: "Yeah..." *chuckles quietly* "I thought it'd be best for you to eat in your room this morning. All mothers do that, so I'm told, whether they're picking up BIOLOGICAL parents'-"

LOONA: "Thanks, Blitzø. I think I can pick up a scent today. Anything else I need to know?"

BLITZØ: "Uhh, just that you'll need to burp him, change him top AND bottom, all before work, worse comes to worse; you'll probably have to tit-feed-"

LOONA: "Just get out. Please."

BLITZØ: *bows* "...Your request is my command."

Blitzø walks backwards as he exits Loona's room. He bumps into the wall right next to the door before he dashes out and softly shuts it.

With a chuff and a shrug, Loona looks back at the baby with her restored vision, and walks over to him with a smile.

LOONA: "Not a peep from you all night, huh?" *giggles* "Awww."

She softly picks him up from his new mobile and takes him back to her bed. As she sits up, cross-legged, and holds him in her arms, swaying him from left to right in slow-motion, she feels a tang of pride in her herself.

She never thought she had a soft side before, let alone one that gave her the ability to be great with kids, even babies, but taking care of Balin overnight and playing games with him, especially with her crew, proved she was more capable and happy than previously thought. 

Pretty soon, she feels her fur being brushed as the baby stirs with his first coos of the day.

LOONA: *coos slightly off-key* "Well howdy, little dude. Had enough Z's for the night?"

As the baby fully opens his eyes to see Loona's smile, his smile immediately appears and he babbles as he gently grips onto Loona's snout. It takes her by surprise, but she took it with grace this time.

LOONA: *purrs, whispers* "Good morning."

The hellhound starts kissing his cheeks softly every few seconds. She soon goes from his forehead, then his nose, and suddenly licks his left cheek, making her widen her eyes with worry.

LOONA: *flushing* "Oh my Satan, I'm so sorry, sweetie. I didn't mean-"

But to Loona's surprise, the baby actually laughs from the lick and claps his hands, thinking this is another way of her playing with him.

Loona lets out a soft chuckle, and as embarrassing as she thinks it is, after a few seconds of thinking, she decides to lick his other cheek to see if it still works with him. And with more laughs, she smiles in relief that it does.

LOONA: "Oh. Do-Do you like that?" *coos slightly* "You like it when I do that, huh?"

The baby babbles in response with a smile on his face. And with that in mind, Loona rolls out her tongue, closes her eyes, and starts giving his face doggy kisses. He tries to cover his face the whole time, squealing in delight, but Loona still wiggles her snout into them and continues licking from his head to his little ears.
