Surion could be heard babbling from his room in his crib. "DAHHDAAAHHDAAAAAHHH" he wanted attention and he wanted out and he wanted changed

Torvil smiled and rolled out of the bed, he tossed on his robe and headed to go check on his son. He entered his room and picked him up. "Hmm, somebody needs changing."

Surion was sitting when he got picked up and babbling again

Torvil blinked. "Wait..." He quickly changed him and lay him back down.

Surion looked up at him sticking a finger in his mouth before happily squealing and waving both hands around at his father and kicking his feet

Torvil chuckled softly. "And for a moment I thought you'd gone and sat up..." He smirked, playing with his son.

Surion giggled and rolled over onto his tummy

Torvil chuckled. "That trick still kills me..." He rubbed his son's back softly with his hand.

Surion blew happy bubbles playing with anything in reach including his father and clothing

Torvil chuckled and turned to go get some more of Surion's toys.

Surion rolled on his side and used his little hands to push himself to sit. he watched his father cross the room and squealed happily clapping his hands together

Torvil spun around and stared. "You can sit!" He laughed and ran for the door. "Ala!"

Surion giggled seeing his father happy and clapped his hands

"What..." Ala called out sounding like she wasn't yet awake as she called from their room

"Surion sat up!" He called down the hall, turning to his sun and beaming like a loon.

Surion giggled rocking lightly on the floor

*THUD* sound of someone falling out of bed then bare foot steps coming down the hall

Torvil smiled and watched him, clearing the doorway for Ala.

Ala came to a tumbling halt as she almost missed the door and stared in her eyes wide seeing Surion

Torvil smiled. "He can sit up..." He sounded like a looped record...

"I see this" Ala grinned from her place on the floor

Surion burbled and flopped over onto his belly kicking his legs his elbows propping his upper torso up on the floor

Torvil smiled. "Ah! He can prop himself!" He beamed and got into a squat. "Can you try and crawl for daddy?"

Ala chuckled she knew he could do that part

Surion looked at his daddy, then to his toys and back to his daddy before using his kicking legs and his elbows to move forward very slowly... towards his toys

Torvil laughed softly. "Heh... Guess I'm not as important..." He pouted playfully.

Ala chuckled "You could join him to play with the toys"

Surion stopped part way there and looked towards his dad "Dahhhdaahhddaaaahh"

Torvil chuckled and crawled after Surion. "Race ya!" He chuckled, moving slow for his son.

Ala chuckled and got up heading back towards their room to leave the two to play and bond

Surion squealed happily and went back to trying to get at his toys

Torvil crawled just behind him, his hand just behind his son's feet.

Surion got within reach of his toys and pushed to sit again "Adahhdahhdaahh.... drdrdrdr" he said grabbing the closest stuffed dragon that his mom had piled there

Torvil smiled and sat next to his son, grabbing another dragon and holding it softly in his hands.

Surion giggled and babbled swinging his arms as he held the toy by it's tail

Torvil smiled and pretended to make his fly at Surion with his hand. "Hehe, here comes the Dragon!"

Surion giggled and leaned forward a little "AAaahhhhhhhh" he said mouth wide going after the dragon and the hand that held it

Torvil laughed and slowly pulled the dragon away. "Ah, so you are the fabled eater of dragons eh?"

Surion leaned forward farther as his dad pulled the dragon way eventually far enough to topple forward onto his belly

Torvil reached out quickly to try and catch him, giving him the dragon to keep him from crying if he was going to start.

Surion looked startled for a moment. He took the dragon by it's neck and went after the hand that held it previously..

Torvil chuckled and slowly sat him back up, offering his son the hand that had held the dragon.

Surion reached and grabbed his father's finger letting go of the dragon and pulled his father's hand towards his mouth

Torvil let him have it, not scared of a little biting... Let him, he needed to learn to anyhow, it was part of the Dragon defense system.

Surion pulled his dad's hand to his mouth and bit into the side of it, he began chewing it like he would a teething ring

Torvil smiled and let him chew, purring softly as he softly brushed his son's cheek.

Surion let go a few minutes later and leaned over onto his side and rolled moving closer to a toy

Torvil smiled and watched his son. He was slightly saddened that the others had not been like this...

Surion rolled onto his back with another toy in hand which he waved at his dad "Adaahdaahdahhdahh"

Torvil smiled and approached. "Having fun Lil Sur?" He chuckled lightly as he sat next to his son.

Surion pushed himself up to sit and leaned forward putting his hand on his dad's knee holding the toy up towards Torvil "AAAAAHHH"

Torvil smiled and took it. "You want me to play?" He chuckled.

Surion sat back and squealed happily clapping his hands together

Torvil smiled and played with the toy, centering his attention with it around Surion.

Surion giggled and played eventually he dropped all the toys and held his arms out and up "AAAaappppppppppt"

Torvil tipped his head trying to figure it out, he put the toy aside and moved to pick Surion up.

Surion squealed happily as he was picked up

Torvil smiled and pulled his son close, looking down into his face. "You make me very happy Surion... Daddy hasn't been this happy in a good while..." He chuckled weakly. "Daddy's been under a lot of stress, and tries not to let it get to mommy... She does a lot for Daddy... But Daddy loves her too much to overtax her..." He said to his son.

Surion blew bubbles and reached up towards his father's romani's

Torvil smiled and took them off, giving them to Surion, letting his blue eyes be seen fully.

Surion took them by the arms and waved them around a bit before trying to shove them on his face upside-down

Torvil chuckled and took them back, putting him on his son right side up. They were a bit big on him... "Hehe... Lookin' good Sur..."

"pppffftttt" Surion raspberried clapping his hands together "Adahhdahhdaah"

Torvil chuckled and took his glasses back, then nuzzled his son.

Surion took hold of his father's top and pulled himself to lean forward his little tail swinging around on his father's leg

Torvil purred and held Surion. "Now where are you going..." He chuckled.

"Aaapppppt" Surion replied reaching up for a higher grip and pulling on the shirt he held

Torvil smiled and slowly lifted him up more with his arms.

Surion pulled till he was standing on his father's lap basically nose to nose

Torvil smiled. "So... You gonna keep holding my shirt... Shoulders might be better..." He chuckled at his son.

Surion bounced in his father's grip still holding the shirt and squealing happily

Torvil chuckled and smiled, kissing his son's forehead with a happy grin.

Surion blew a raspberry most of that drool landing on his father's neck as he was kissed . Then he squealed happily again bouncing in his father's grip

Torvil laughed. "Oh... hey! You pulled yourself up didn't you..." He chuckled softly.

Surion let go with one hand and reached up pulling his father' romani's off and sending them flying towards his pile of dragon stuffies looking at his father's blue eyes happily

Torvil chuckled. "Fine, glasses off..." He smirked, glad that he got the durable kind...

Surion let go with his other hand staying upright thanks to his father's grasp. he reached both hands to his father's face and playfully baby-slapped it "Adahhdahhhdaaahhh"

Torvil chuckled and kissed at the hands. "Yesh. Dad..." He smiled.

Surion leaned forward planting his mostly open very drooly mouth on his father's chin

Torvil chuckled and purred happily, looking down at his son. "Hehe... Baby kissy.."

Surion swung his arms happily as he bounced in his father's grip then let the support under him go as to sit again

Torvil chuckled and softly brushed his son's cheek with a finger. "You're so adorable..."

Surion went after the finger that brushed his cheek

Torvil smiled and bit his wrist open, offering it to Surion.

Surion went after it happily

Torvil purred and let his son feed on his wrist with a small smile. He felt complete... He could feed their child... He wasn't useless...

Surion broke away a short time later and looked up at his dad with a dirty face "Adahhdahhdahhdahh"

Torvil smiled and wiped his son's face clean with a finger, licking it before closing his wound.

Surion reached and grabbed his father's shirt again pulling on it

Torvil smiled and just held his arms behind him to catch him if he fell.

Surion pulled till he was upright again and using his grip on the shirt to hold himself there as he bounced

Torvil smiled. "My talented little Surion..." He chuckled.

Surion squealed happily and let go teetering backwards

Torvil's hands quickly caught him not letting him fall.

Surion giggled and plopped down looking up at his dad

Torvil smiled happily and nuzzled the top of his son's head.

Surion's smile faded as he looked up and was replaced by a scrunchie nose

Torvil couldn't help but laugh, getting up and heading straight for the changing table.

Surion watched his father with a pouty scrunched up face as he was carried

Torvil put him down on the changing table and started to change him.

Surion stared up at his father trying to roll on the table now and then

Torvil chuckled. "Oh no... No messes..." HE smirked, keeping his son still til he was done.

Surion squawked at being held still, now that he knew how to roll and sit and move he wanted to move move move

Torvil let him go once he was done. "There... Now you can move around..."

Surion rolled onto his belly his tail moving around and then he sat up on the table bouncing lightly on the mat

Torvil chuckled and picked him up, putting him on the floor as he finished up with the diaper in the biohazard pail... Or at least... That's what he called the bloody thing.

Surion rolled to his belly and was heading for the door as Torvil dealt with the diaper

Torvil turned and chuckled, walking slowly behind his son once he sanitized his hands.

Surion squealed happily slowly making his way into the hall then rolling on his side to look up at his father for a moment before keeping going

Torvil chuckled and walked behind him, glad he'd fixed everything that had been broken before.

Surion giggled and squealed it like a game to him and his daddy was 'chasing' him

Torvil chuckled and smiled at his son, wondering how his little mind viewed this.

Surion was on a beeline for the first open door he could see which happened to be his parents room where his mom had gone back to lie down again

Torvil chuckled and followed after him with a small smile.

Surion stopped in the doorway again and rolled onto his side to look up and squealed and giggled rolling back on his belly to move again

Torvil chuckled and gave 'chase' after his son, mindful that Ala might be trying to sleep, and that if he woke her up, he'd move Surion out to the living room.

took a short while but he soon was in the room giggling happily

Ala opened an eye hearing her son's voice

Torvil looked towards her. "Did he wake you?" He asked, still walking very slowly behind their son.

"Kinda but not really been hearing you guys all down the hall" Ala said softly

Surion made a beeline for the side of the tall bed and soon was half under the bed

Torvil scurried over hand pulled his son from out form under it, picking him up and putting him atop the bed. Under the bed was not a Surion fly zone.

Surion squawked and pouted being pulled out from under the bed

Torvil chuckled. "Nothing to see under there... Too dark..." He smiled weakly at Ala and mouthed a few quick words before diving back under the bed and pulling more than a few boxes out from under it, heading for his closet.

Ala laughed "I think we may need to baby proof"

Surion waved his arms happily the item he had in his hand catching the light and sending it against the walls, it was Ala's tail ring

Torvil chuckled softly. "Yeah..." He said softly, moving all of his... 'stuff' into his closet... Which strangely... had a lock.

Ala looked towards her son and chuckled "You missed one love"

Surion was sticking his wrist through the ring and letting the ring slide up his arm as he lay waving his arms and kicking his feet giggling

Torvil chuckled softly. "Thankfully one that isn't 'bad'." He said with a light smile, snatching the ring from Surion trading him really, cause he gave him a piece of his horde. A large gold amulet.

Surion took it staring for a moment then starting to swing it around as his arms moved squealing happily

"Think that one is safe love" Ala asked avoiding getting hit

Torvil chuckled. "Until I can get him one of his own toys yes..." He chuckled.

Ala chuckled

Surion Started tring to chew on the amulet

Torvil smiled, and watched his son. "That's the first part of his..." He mused.

Ala chuckled softly "A good start"

Surion let the amulet drop and yawned audibly

Torvil smiled. "Of course... and when the hording instinct really kicks in for him..." He chuckled. "There will be a lot fro him to find..."

Ala chuckled

Surion's thumb found it's way into his mouth and his other hand stuck up in the air making grabby motions

Torvil chuckled and went to fetch his blanket.

Ala chuckled and rolled to face her son

Surion looked into his mom's face with a look that said 'why are you just laying there go get'

Torvil came back with Surion's blanket and tossed it in a ball to the small child with a smirk. "Incoming!"

The blanket landed atop of him and he pushed it down a little with his outstretched hand only to grab it and roll onto his side bringing his hand near his face and closing his eyes

Torvil chuckled. "Oh, so you think you can steal our bed eh?" He smirked and crawled into it.

Surion dozed right where he was just to one side of half way onto the bed though more on Torvil's side then Ala's

Torvil chuckled. "Oh sure... He's more on my side..." He smirked at Ala.

Ala laughed "He is your son... so did you two have fun?"

Torvil smiled and nodded, laying down on the bed as best he could. "Loads of it..." He chuckled.

"You sounded like it, you also sounded very excited that he sat up" she chuckled

Torvil chuckled. "I was very... He can stand now... Well, pull himself up to it..."

"Really?!" Ala looked down to her son "My oh my he's getting to be a big boy"

Torvil chuckled. "Yep..." He smiled.

Ala chuckled softly and yawned "Ugh I don't know why I feel so tired today"

Torvil brushed her face softly. "Then rest, I'm sure we'll figure it out..."

Ala nodded softly closing her eyes again

Torvil smiled and watched his family sleep.

Ala fell back to sleep looking exhausted though she hadn't done basically anything at all that day

Torvil stayed awake and aware, a bit worried about his wife.

Ala slept a deep dreamless sleep once she got back to letting herself sleep

Torvil finally allowed himself to fall into a light sleep
