Akibrus sighed, shaking his head at her. He raised one hand to cup her face, chuckling quietly. Well, you've got me and Ro. And we'll never let anything happen to you. So don't be so anxious, huh? Gods, he was shit at helping with anxiety.

He finished cleaning her hand up, and reached to pull her to himself for a tight hug. Deep breath, Lyr. He'd squeeze her again before releasing her.

Do you wanna stay out here? Baby's indoors. Can't leave her alone too long, Ro'll have my ass. Ronan loved that little girl like she was from his seed and not Aki's, and Akibrus fucking loved that. That was the most protected toddler in all of Thedas, as far as he was concerned.
