Damian and Marinette are babysitting Mar'i today while Dick and Kor'i go out. Bruce was at work with Tim, Alfred had some errands, and Jason is... is... goodness knows where that boy is. The five year old was having an argument with her uncle, she wants to play outside. "Pleeeeeaaaasse, Uncle Dami?" She whined. "It's cold outside, Mar'i," he replied. Marinette was watching the argument with a fond smile, she knew what was coming next. And happen it did, Mar'i gave her uncle the cutest baby doll eyes ever. Damian made the mistake of not looking away. "Fine," he said, "but we're going to need jackets." The little girl squealed in joy and ran to her room.

Damian watches the girl as she went when he heard giggling. "Still can't say no to those eyes, mon amour?" his girlfriend asked jokingly. He groaned, "How do you even say no to them?" Marinette broke into laughter. "Lots and lots of practice," she replied cheekily. So far, only Dick, Kor'i, and Mari could do that. She went to retrieve her necessities for the cold as did Damian.

Damian felt someone tugging his jacket. "Come on, Uncle Dami," the little Tamaranean said. "Okay, let's go," Marinette replied for him. They all went outside and played together. All of a sudden the wind pick up, snow blown into their faces. "It's a blizzard," Damian said while Marinette was holding onto Mar'i. "Let's get inside," Marinette said her voice getting louder as the wind blew harder. They rushed indoors as fast as they can. Marinette helped her 'twin' or so Mar'i calls them change while Damian checks on the others.

"Father and Drake is still at the tower, Grayson and Kor'i is still at the restaurant, and Alfred is currently at Todd's with him," Damian told his girlfriend. "Everyone's safe," Marinette said on relief as she sat next to the fire with Mar'i. The older girl turns on the TV and checkes the news. The weatherman could be heard saying that the blizzard would probably last in for about 5 to 6 hours, meaning it will be well around 7 when it stops.

"What do we do now?" the youngest in the room asked. "How about you," Mari said picking the smaller girl up, "help me make some homemade popcorn and hot coco while your uncle sets up a movie? Sound good?" Mar'i nodded and asked "Can we watch Frozen and Frozen 2?" "Sure, Starlight," Damian said getting the living room set up as the girls walk to the kitchen.

Half way through the second movie Mar'i had dozed off soon followed by the others. The movie had long ended when the blizzard stopped and the front door could be heard opening and everyone as in Bruce, Tim, Alfrd, Dick, Kor'i, and Jason coming in. Dick and Kor'i rushed inside worried for their little girl but was greeted by a tooth rotting sweet sight. Marinette and Damian were cuddling fast asleep with Mar'i in the middle.

As the others came in, Dick decided to make worth of this moment. He and Kor'i pulled the three remaining Waynes and trapped them in a cuddle fest around the already sleeping. Their protests soon died down as one by one driff off to dreamland.

Alfred came in as soon as he finished changing and saw the scene in front of him. He smiled fondly, snapped a picture, and left them be.
