Elwin x Responsibility

Elwin was bored. He had planned to meet up with Kris, but Kris had disappeared to who knows where. Rent was due in a week, but he had already sorted that out.

Well, this could be the perfect time to do some essay writing on the beautiful women he had met.

He skipped lightly over the pebbles on the footpath, suddenly excited to have some time to do what he loved until . . .

"Elwin!" called a voice. He jumped when he recognized it. Lucy. And from her tone, she was going to ask for free babysitting.

Nope, not today, he thought, and he walked faster.

"OI!"

He halted, and slowly pivoted to face her. "Hello, Lucy. If you don't want to look fat, you might wanna lose some weight," he said weakly. Not manly at all.

"Shut it. Uh so, Elwin are you free this afternoon?" she asked sweetly, venom woven in her words. She held a large pram with three fire drooling babies inside.

"I . . . have . . . a . . . YODANA CONCERT! YEP! That's TOTALLY what I'm doing!"

Lucy smirked evilly. "The next Yodana Concert is next week on Friday. Ezzie told me. So are you free or not?"

"I have . . . laundry?"

"JUST TAKE MY BABIES AND GO!" she roared, thrusting the pram at him. She was more of a dragonslayer than Natsu now.

"Y - yes ma'am!"

Elwin grabbed the pram and speeded off with squealing coming from inside. Damn, Lucy was even scarier than Layla. Come to think of it, they were extraordinarily alike. Both were writers, blonde and f***ing terrifying. Except Layla was totally better and her boobs were DEFINITELY NOT FAKE!

He went home with the babies and sat down in front of them. Mavis sucked her thumb. Igneel was just giggling and letting little spurts of fire out. And Luna . . . well, she was hanging upside down from the ceiling.

"HEY!"

She giggled and fell down into Elwin's arms. he sat them down on his table and wrapped them in a blanket so they wouldn't be able to move around.

"Uh . . . so . . . kids," he said blankly. "What do you want to do?"

No response. Elwin awkwardly waved and then slapped himself.

"Of course!" he yelled. "XAVIER!"

Xavier came out of his bedroom wiping his hair with a towel. "Elwin, if you ask me rate Layla's hair ONE MORE TIME I will personally stick my hand up your --" Xavier broke off, seeing the twins. He shrieked and dashed off like a lightning bolt. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"Well, that was weird," commented Elwin. "But he gave me a great idea. Why don't we look through my album of beauty?"

Igneel gurgled and spat a flame at Elwin. He yelped bashing himself with his own hands. That was a terrible mistake. Instead of dying down, like he had expected, the flames rose and engulfed his hair. Elwin ran to the bathroom and dunked his head under a tap. Steam filled the room and once he was sure the fire had gone out he went back to the living room.

The triplets were not where he expected them to be. Mavis was rolling around on the ground repeating the words "Jewef! JEWEF DWAGWEEL!" Luna was poking Igneel repeatedly while he wailed, tears spurting out of his eyes. Elwin carefully wiped the tears away, noting the fact that they were burning hot.
