"I can smell him already." Uta whispered excitedly to Itori. "They baby's here, isn't he?!"
"Shut up, U, he's probably sleepy." Itori whispered back and Uta sat on the floor quietly as Uta sat with tight lips.
But as soon as you walked back in, Uta's resolve broke.
"Oh please let me hold the baby, please!" He tried to stand up, tripped, fell, stood up again and ran up to you, circling around. "He's mostly human I can tell, oh, oh, oh, he's so cute, he's so squishy, I love him, I love you Yukizou."
"Damn, fine, take him. Just don't jostle him too much." You transferred your sleepy baby over to the eager ghoul, who graciously accepted him into his arms. You smiled, happy that your son was fully fed and sleepy. It was the perfect time to meet a stranger.
"Eeeee!" Uta squealed. "Look, Itori, he's laying on my shoulder!"
Itori smiled on the floor as she watched Uta swing slowly back and forth, laying his cheek against the tiny infant's soft skull.
"Sleepy, Yukizou. Lucky you, Uta." She commended him. "Well, I technically don't have to stay, now that I know he's going to be obsessed with the baby the rest of the time, but now I'm pumped for a sleep over. So what next?"
"Well I think Uta's squishing the baby..." You looked over at him poking your son's baby rolls and you laughed. "But you and I could do something else if you wanted."
"Do you have any nail polish? I think all three of us could use some polishing. And maybe Yukizou?" She looked at you with sly eyes.
"If you want to try to get polish on the world's tiniest nails, be my guest, but I practically have a stroke whenever I even begin to start filing them down so he doesn't accidentally scratch himself." You shuddered. "I see why baby mittens are so popular, but it's way too hot outside for them right now."
"How could you not want one of these, Itori? I mean, look at him! He's to die for." Uta stroked Yukizou's soft white hair and kissed the back of his head. "God, I want to melt into a puddle just holding him."
"How haven't you had a baby yet, Uta? If you love them this much?" You asked him.
"Because Uta here is highly susceptible to out-of-sight-out-of-mind." Itori rolled her eyes as you directed her to your stash of nail polish. "And Uta, I don't want one because they don't do that all the time. Most of the time they cry, poop, scream and drain you of your beauty and life-- no offense, YN."
"None taken." You shrugged. "It's pretty true; but to be fair, Yukizou is actually a very good natured baby. I don't know how. His father is cuckoo and I'm incredibly anger prone."
"Really? Anger-prone?" Uta looked at you.
"You want to sow her fields and you don't even know that about her?" Itori scoffed. "Dude, seriously. YN's got a really bad temper. She's like one-hundred percent revenge-motivated."
"Eh, you must be hard to get angry then." He shook his head, dismissing the idea.
"No, U, you're just like, the most chill guy ever. Unless it comes to babies." Itori shook her head right back at him.
