*The door to the flat flies open, and Nymphadora steps through, a very wriggly, half-grown dog of an indeterminate mix tucked under her arm.

The dog also happens to be blue.*

*Dora snickers*

Hey, that tickles... No, not yet, Sunny. We've got a while until that happens.

"Kay." Eyes the stomach for another moment before jumping up and running off to see if she can get the ice cream before they stop her.

Ellie chases her.

*They watch her go for a long moment, then Bernard turns his face into the back of Nymphdora's neck, smiling uncontrollably.*

[clumsy_auror]

*She twists slightly around in his arms, kissing his cheek and hugging him close.*

Exactly when did she manage to wrap us around her pinky finger?

I think it was the destruction of my door that did it, really, if we're thinking globally.

But for today... My will left me entirely at 'Mum' and 'Dad'.

[clumsy_auror]

*She takes a long breath, and as she exhales her appearance shifts.

Feels better, somehow.*

Yeah. Yeah, mine too.

Blimey.

*Some of her hair tickles his nose, and he sneezes and pushes it aside.*

I know.

*He laces their fingers together and hugs her around her middle, snickering as he kisses just behind her ear.*

Can't believe she just poked you in the belly.

[clumsy_auror]

*she snickers with him*

Oh Merlin, I know. At least she already has some idea about babies and things. Though I'm sure not the finer points. There's a conversation I don't relish having. Ah well. We'll cross that bridge, etcetera etcetera.

*Nymphadora turns her head slightly, finding his lips.*

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

Mmm-hmm.

*He nips at her lips briefly, then shifts to the side to kiss her more deeply.

Vaguely, he registers Sunny and Ellie toddling and bounding around the room, but it's not all that real to him till he gets hit in the forehead with a tail.*

[clumsy_auror]

*She breaks away abruptly when she gets whapped on the nose.*

Ow. I think that was a hint.

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

*A long sigh, and then they reluctantly disentangle themselves.*

So, what did we decide on for dinner? Ice cream?

[clumsy_auror]

Macaroni and cheese, and then ice cream, I think the compromise was.

*She pulls him to his feet and then stretches.*

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

...And for the adults?

[clumsy_auror]

*She blinks*

What's wrong with macaroni and cheese?

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

*He looks weary*

Hopeless.

I'll get started on the cheese sauce. If you want mac and cheese you'll have it made right.

[clumsy_auror]

*Nymphadora beams.*

Brilliant. Then I'll keep the rugrat out of trouble while you do.

*She leans in to kiss him, patting him affectionately on the behind.*

Love you.

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

*Bernard rolls his eyes*

I love you too.

Even if you are an utter pleb.

[clumsy_auror]

*in a sing-songy voice, as she's picking up Sunny and heading down the hall*

I heard that...

[the-woodpecker.livejournal.com]

*In the same sing-songy tone*

I meant you to...

*He walks into the kitchen and starts cooking, a silly smile on his face.*

Pleb. Jesus.
