Corvus: *pecks Ambrose's lips* 
          	
          	Ambrose: What is this? 
          	
          	Corvus: Affection. 
          	
          	Ambrose: Ugh disgusting!

//Little snippet of an idea I had. Probably could make a scenario out of it but *shrug* but not quite enough for a full-blown one shot. Enjoy <3 
          
          
          Severus walked the woods in a slow pace, partly to just enjoy the scenery around him (something he hadn't allowed himself to do in quite some time, not since a third year at Hogwarts) and partly to ensure the toddling, easily distracted four-year-old following somewhat next to him could keep up. He caught the view of Ambrose stopping short as he walked on, not thinking much of it. There were plenty of things around to further distract the little boy. As long as he stayed close by, Severus wasn't too worried, at least until he heard a squeaky voice. 
          "Papa!" his head immediately snapped backwards, eyes falling on the little boy. After a quick survey of him, Severus could see there were no injuries on the boy causing him to ease. He knelt down carefully, closer to his height, seeing something grasped in the tiny hands. 
          "What is it, little one?" 
          Ambrose, with a bright, beaming smile held a flower out to him, "Fo' you!" 
          Severus was stunned and speechless, but after a moments hesitation, took the lily flower being held out to him, observing it. Seeing no smile appear or sign of thanks like the tot was expecting, he shifted nervously from foot to foot, mumbling out, "Like it, papa?"

Severus drew his eyes back up slightly to focus on the child, hesitating again before nodding, "I.... I do," he assured, holding an arm out. Ambrose, still rather anxious from the reaction, meekly approached, nuzzling up against his adoptive father's side once close enough. Severus twirled the flower between his fingers once, now holding the little boy close with his free hand. 
            "Do you know what flower this is?" he asked softly, even gently. Ambrose blinked, looking down to really focus on the flower, but after a few minutes of nothing, shook his head. Severus smiled faintly, barely detectable. 
            "Its a lily." 
            That made the boy's brown eyes light up immediately, "Like what you call me?" 
            "Yes." 
            Ambrose looked at the flower with newfound amazement, "How come you call me that, papa?" 
            Severus paused, looking down on the boy he'd taken on, "Well.... first of all, your middle name is a version on it. Lilein," another pause before he added, "and Lily was the name of someone who was..... very close to me. Someone I loved... very dearly." 
            Ambrose looked up, hanging on every word, "Oh," the boy's face contoured into confusion after a moment, "you said 'loved', past tense. What happened to her, papa?" 
            Severus tensed at that, memories threatening to come back. He unintentionally squeezed the boy roughly, not even realizing he did until he felt him shift uncomfortably in his arms, immediately loosening and shaking his head to clear it away. 
            "That... we will discuss one day. Not today," he sat the boy back on his feet, "for now, we have somethings to gather from here, so, why don't you hold papa's flower," he tenderly passed it back to the boy's hands, "stay close to me," he rose to his full height, holding a hand out. Ambrose took it with one of his own, the other still gripping the lily protectively, "and continue on our trip, my lily?" he finished as he started leading the boy along.

//Face Claim: Josh O'Connor or Asa Butterfield (I know that's also Rians face claim but I'm kinda warming up to OCs sharing them, kinda thinking of it like people recognizing an actor from somewhere else). 

Son_Of_Half_Blood

//Went with Asa. Now a better question, should he be a year below (putting him in the same year as Harry) or ahead (putting him in the same year as Fred and George) of Corvus?

//So I'm still gonna make this an OC on my main on my book...... but I'm wanting to change it up...... 
          And I can't decide if I want to do a ravager crew member like Gef, Tullk, or Horuz or something else that may get more interactions (though I'm really not sure who-)

@nighttimeleaps //Touche, that could work. Thanks for your help Max, I really appreciate it!
