Of course he didn’t want it. Tavi couldn’t resist smiling at Yuuma, there holding his tea… Why again did he ever leave this man’s side? There was no reason at all for him to ever leave Yuuma. The man just made him so happy, all of the time. Even now, with him indicating he wanted crackers. Tavi chuckled at the gesture- of course he’d grasp that little cup of his. How could Tavi say no? Tavi reached over to the plate, grabbing a few. Beggars couldn’t be choosers, and well, as far as he knew his husband didn’t hate any of the assembled crackers, so Tavi fed the younger boy a cracker, his eyes bright with that happy energy only Yuuma could inspire. [break][break] “We don’t spend enough time together, my love,” Tavi pointed out definitively. “I know the kids will be gone soon and we’ll have more time … But, I want to do something special. Just you and I. We’ll plan a day, just the two of us,” Tavi was dead set in it now. What they’d be doing, he didn’t know, but something. [break][break] “I think we should take the kids out, too. One by one. Just, spend the day with them, doing something they want to do.” Tavi’s mind was wandering. He was still a bit tired, and very stressed: focus was a lot to ask of the werewolf right now. [break][break] Did he wish Yuuma was a girl? Tavian’s expression shifted from that uncomfortable I’m-gonna-tell-you look to one of surprise. [break][break] “Never. No. Not at all.” Tavi kissed his husband’s cheek. “You’re the sexiest man I’ve ever met- I would never want you to be anything different than what you are- how you are- right now. Except, maybe not injured.” In all the time he’d known Yuuma, he’d never once thought of him as insecure about his gender. The younger boy didn’t always dress in a traditionally male way, but to Tavi, that never once made him seem like any less of a man. But, still, maybe he was being a little quick- if Yuuma had been a female, Tavi was fairly certain he would have fell just as hard. It wasn’t about gender for him, it had far more to do with Yuuma’s personality. As it was, he didn’t want a single thing about his husband to change. [break][break] Tavi was used to this. This quiet, reflective place his husband went. But the wait was killing him. Tavi sighed- not impatiently, it held more of a end-of-the-rope quality. His mind tried to guess what Yuuma was thinking, but none of the words seemed to fit his husband- the words he imagined were either striking criticisms, or praise. [break][break] … Yuuma’s reason for agreeing was that Augustine was like Tavian? Octavian paused, a bit startled by the comparison. Sure, the boy was his son, and hadn’t he just been saying August had reminded him of himself and Yuuma? And yet… there was that feeling of pride swelling deep within him. Yuuma trusted him, and cared about him. Of course Tavi knew it, but moments like this helped him to feel it. [break][break] “I trust him, too.” Tavi agreed, managing to keep a smile. Maybe, just maybe he’d made the right decision. “I told him he had to talk to you about it before it was official.” He added, as if it might help to tell his husband he hadn’t single-handedly decided the matter. Though, clearly Yuuma seemed to be in agreement with him. [break][break] “Just… one more thing. August says our baby Cy might be hoping to date Lycus’ boy.” Tavi stated, clearly not the least bit amused by the prospect. He didn’t want Cy dating anyone, but did it have to be Lycus’ son? Sure, he considered himself friends with the man now, but some negative feelings still lingered once in awhile. Anyway, wasn’t the kid a bit… messed up? He didn’t know the extent of that boy’s problems, but the idea of his daughter being hurt by one of his “outbursts” was not something Tavi was taking lightly.ny length to accomplish even the slightest bit of comfort for his angel, especially with such clear indications of pain.

[attr="class","slowlyrics"]Sparklers in every hand
[attr="class","slowlyrics1"]Life's never felt so good
[attr="class","slowbod"]Smiling happily when Tavi feed him crackers he let out a pleased purr closing his eyes as he seemed to enjoy the attention, enjoy Tavi feeding him. It made him smile. He always loved when Tavi done things like this for him. It made him feel loved. So naturally, he'd wiggle in his lap, eating the crackers and drinking his tea like a spoiled little child that he'd never admit to. Agreeing with Tavi when he said they didn't spend enough time together, he nodded his head. Between eating his crackers and Tavi speaking Yuuma cleared his throat, or rather mouth. "That would be great! Yuuma wants to Tavi! Yuuma wants to!" He chimed happily, wiggling a bit more just from the thought. He couldn't think of nothing that would make him happier then to spend the whole day with his husband. But when he mention taking the kids out one by one that was when he found himself laughing and nipping at Tavi's neck playfully. "That might be hard with the boys. They are connected at the hip." He explained only to smirk a bit against his cup, sipping at his tea.
"Especially now that they want to date.~" He bet Tavi didn't think about that! How it would be hard to get augustine to want to be away from Basile. Basile though.. He was thinking that might not be so hard. Cyrielle would love it but yuuma knew how that would end well to. Funny to think he was a tiny bit jealous of his own daughter. Shrugging the thought out of his head he didn't have it in him to be to jealous. He was the one that got him at the end of the day. When Tavi had got close to him, saying Augustine had claimed a male as a lover, naturally Yuuma's first thought was Tavi would have preferred a girl. so he wanted to know if Tavi himself Was the one that wished he'd end up with a girl. Because frankly Yuuma wasn't the insecure type. No never, he expressed his security with how he dressed. he dressed like he wanted. Got tattoo's like he'd want and wore his hair messy because it was what he liked and didn't care what others thought.
But the even idea that Tavi had wished he was a different gender was something that had his mind spinning. So luckily for him, he seen Tavi's expression changing and saying no of course not. feeling a weight being taken off his shoulders now he couldn't help but to laugh happily. He didn't like the thought of his husband settling for a gender he didn't have an uninterested in, in the first place. Hearing what Tavi had to say though made him happy. He done something he knew his husband wouldn't really be happy about. He tossed his cup over on the nightstand. Not even seeming to mind that it spilled out. Launching himself forward he wrapped his arms around tavi's neck happily. Nuzzling into the older males neck he just gave happy coos when he let his husband process what he had said about Augustine. That he seen allot of Octavian in Augustine. that was what he loved the most about it because he knew Basile was like him in a sense. He was always doing the first thing that came to his mind, that he was hyper and free loving.
Although he was sure he wasn't really that talented like the little blonde. Smiling happily Yuuma just stayed close to Tavi, refusing to let go of him. His arms hugging the mans neck, showing he clearly wasn't about to let go of him any time soon. that is to say until he heard him mention Cyrielle.. What was going on ? How long had he been out cold. From the look of himself he had the same shirt on he did the first time he slept. Knowing Tavi would have cleaned his wounds and gave him new clothing to wear if he had been out for a few days. so it wasn't only the boys but her too? They was all growing up so fast. The hug to his neck become tighter as Yuuma started to sob again. It wasn't because who Cy had liked but the fact that they all three now had someone they liked. "No fair.. no fair.." He whined, sniffling. Yet no tears escaped this time.
"The kids are growing up to quick! I miss the cute little eight year old trio!" He wasn't really sure how tavi would feel about Yuuma being more concerned about the fact his kids was growing up more then who they wanted to date. "Augustine and Basile will move out! Get a place of their own.. Cyrielle and Keir will move in together and Keir will come whinnying that Cyrielle is bullying him. And we will be that old married couple that just say 'I'm sorry for the brats. They are just like that' Because Augustine will be like Tavi and push others away from Basile and Cyrielle will be like Rii and put Keir in Keir's place because Cyrielle isn't a push over even though you think she is!" Cling to his husband it was more of a pouty cling then anything. He loved his children. He loved his alone time with Tavi.. But at the same time he didn't really want them to be separated because he loved things how they was now, but Yuuma knew he had a limited time with Tavi and he wasn't about to give that up for nothing so he knew that it was for the best because he knew Augustine was on the same boat as he was.

Seeing his husband so excited about his idle idea made Tavi both happy, and a bit sad- why hadn’t he done that more? He let life get in the way. Well, he’d be better now. Yuuma deserved to be spoiled- he should be taking him out at least once a week. Yep, that’s what he wanted now. A date night. His kids were old enough to fend for themselves. He’d tell them that they’d be moving out soon- they’d have to take turns making dinner that night, prove they knew how, give them even more experience before they were forced out on their own. [break][break] But Yuuma was right. Augustine wasn’t likely to go along with Tavi’s plan willingly. Bas, of course, would. Bas loved any attention- he rarely if ever said no if it sounded like he was going to get personalized attention. Maybe he’d get Bas to convince Aggy- tell Bas that he couldn’t take him out unless Aggy got a turn, too. Surely the little blond would sway his brother the way Yuuma swayed Tavi. [break][break] Wait. Why was he thinking about this like it was normal? [break][break] “You’re right.” Tavi nodded in reply to Yuuma, finally. “More time for you and I, then.” That suited Tavi just fine. [break][break] That’s when his unpredictable husband did something Tavi really wished he hadn’t. He threw his tea, the liquid spilling out all over the nightstand. Tavi shifted, ready to slip out from under Yuuma to clean it up before it ruined. Before he got the chance Yuuma was hugging him tightly and cooing. [break][break] Damn it. He couldn’t even be mad. He let his own arms wrap around his husband, idly rubbing the man’s back as he listened to the tea dripping off the nightstand. Drip, drip, drip… Tavi rested his head against the wall, smiling at Yuuma, though with this tight hug, his husband wouldn’t likely see it. [break][break] Then, crying? Tavi’s grip tightened, listening to the whining, then the explanation. Having his husband upset about it made the problems seem somehow small to Tavi- like he needed to process them, and ‘handle’ them for Yuuma. He waited until Yuuma was finished before the werewolf spoke himself. [break][break] “Yuuma, how about this? We’ll call them all every day- they can’t move out unless they agree. We’ll pay for their phones, and you and I, we’ll speak to our babies every single day. And no matter how far away they move, we can go see them. We’ll have once-a-week dinners with them. Sunday dinners. We can get puppies,” Tavi liked puppies. “So the house is never quiet. And, if it will make you feel better, we can have another kid, or adopt. My angel, I’ll give you anything you want. We’ll get through this. And someday we’ll have grandbabies for you to spoil.” Cy was bound to have a kid, right? He wasn’t as sure about Bas and Aggy- was it bad to say he didn’t think his younger son was ready for a child? The boy was just too self-centered. But Cy- he still thought of Cy as sweet. She’d make a good mother as far as he was concerned. And, despite not wanting her with anyone, he did want the chance to meet her children. [break][break] “Let’s have another cute little eight year old.” Tavi coaxed. After all that- waiting seventeen years for his kids to be old enough to leave the house, the first sign of tears and Tavi was promising Yuuma more children. He couldn’t deny his husband anything.

[attr="class","slowlyrics1"]Life's never felt so good
[attr="class","slowbod"]Yuuma didn't mind that Tavi was shifting under him, that he was ready to just get up and clean the mess up. Because he had other things on his mind right now and even if he wasn't full on crying right now he sure felt like it. Just thinking about everything was finally hitting him. Now normally he didn't cry easy. He wasn't always one that would just haul off and cry. he was raised not to really cry, to work through things. But when it come to his kids, he found himself a bit emotional and couldn't help himself right now. He was just sad thinking of how everyone would be gone soon. With tavi holding him, reassuring him that it was going to be okay.. well Yuuma felt a bit better.
He wasn't sure if it was because he was hurting all over, if he actually passed out a few times from blood lost or what but he was emotional right now and having his husband holding him like this was the best thing for him right now and the only thing that helped calm him down if he was going to be honest about it. Closing his eyes finally when he rested against Tavi's shoulders he just found himself sniffling a bit more, his head hurting a bit but that wasn't nothing he couldn't ignore either if he wanted to be honest about it. Suggesting that they'd call the kids and talk to them every day was a good idea he liked that.. He wasn't to found of pets because.. well he never had any to be honest. but they was cute!
So he wouldn't mind having a little puppy running around. So long as it didn't touch his socks or his grey sheep he would love the small little animal. So when Tavi went on to speak about grandkids, thats when Yuuma found himself laughing a bit. "I don't think Cye Is really interested in kids. Besides Cye doesn't seem like Cye'd enjoy the nine months of blowing up and the mood swings. Cye tries so hard to control everything and when your pregnant you can't, can you?" He laughed happily. He didn't know why the thought of her getting annoyed was cute but it really was. He seen how she was around others and having a kid would ruin her plans and attitude.
Shaking the thought out of his head he didn't want to ruin that 'perfect daddy's girl' image that he knew Tavi had of her. Although he had to admit he kinda liked the thought of having another kid around. he was sure that he couldn't just have no random eight year old. they had to start somewhere.. but adoption.. he had never really even considered that. So looking up at Tavi he tilted his head to the side playing cute. "Would Tavi rather have a kid of our own. Or would Tavi rather adopt a kid? Because Yuuma wants whatever Tavi wants! Although if we do have another it's Tavi's turn! Yuuma has two of his! Tavi only has Basile! So it is Tavi's turn to give Yuuma another kid." He snickered playfully wiggling in the males arms, almost like he hadn't been on the bresk of tears just seconds ago.

There it was. The sniffling, calm moment where Yuuma allowed Tavi to just hold him. Tavi kept Yuuma close- he knew the issue wasn't resolved, but it felt like his husband was somewhat reassured. Until he argued about their daughter. Maybe Yuuma was right... But Tavi couldn't see it. Didn't Yuuma realize how sweet she could be? Well, Yuuma hadn't really said she wasn't sweet, he'd said she liked to be in control. Was that so bad? Tavi let the topic slip past them- on this, his husband and he could talk in circles. [break][break] Whatever he wanted? It was his husband saying he wanted an eight-year-old around that prompted "adoption", but perhaps prolonging Yuuma's separation as long as possible by having another baby around the house wouldn't be so bad. Would his older kids be able to handle a crying infant? Maybe it was a good life lesson. One they didn't need if his boys kept dating, but perhaps a fair caution to his daughter, if nothing else about how much work a baby was, even if they were cute. There was no way he was admitting that reasoning to Yuuma, though. Not yet at least. [break][break] "I've been thinking about that. Basile is the only one of our children who won't live as long as his siblings," Tavi began in explanation. "If we went through with this, if it's my child, the mother should be a demon." There was no chance of Tavi having someone in mind- did he even know any demons he wasn't related to? Much less female ones. But he'd thought a lot about it, about mortality, since his husband's injury. He didn't want to subject another kid to the same fate as Basile and himself. [break][break] "That way, I guess it's kind of like both our kid- they'll be like you, too." Tavi added. It sort of made sense in his mind. Not quite, but sort of. "Otherwise, we should adopt." Tavi had no problem with the idea of adoption. They had a stable home and grown children to be there for the child as they grew older. What more did they need? [break][break] Tavi kissed his husband's forehead idly before reaching over to grab a few- three, to be precise- crackers to feed to his husband. Holding them out to Yuuma, he waited for the younger boy to take them. [break][break] "I can go make you more tea, my angel," Tavi volunteered. Not because he wanted to leave. He hadn't moved yet, and he didn't want to. Rather, he cared more about keeping Yuuma comfortable and happy than he did about his own preference. Though of course he knew that as soon as he got Yuuma tea, he'd be able to return to hold his husband in his arms- it wasn't like he was giving up his chance to be close to the beautiful man he'd married.
