[ link name The only thing on the screen is this face, followed by Tony's voice in a giggly falsetto.]

Please King Pansy, will you come and meet me with lots of strawberries and cream?

[What...what is this? Well, besides adorable that is! It's hard not to just warp straight over to Tony's place, but Regis must resist. He can't seem too charmed. Tony will be too proud of himself!]

Well, hello there Miss Kitty. Can kittens have strawberries and cream? You should ask your tall dad. The short one is biased.

Yes, you bastard! Daddy says to get your ass over here!

[Tony wags the kitty's paw at the camera like she's scolding Regis.]

And he's not short!

No offense, little lady, but no one is short compared to you.

[Regis tries not to laugh, but fails miserably. Once he finally stops laughing, he responds.]

Give me about 10 minutes and I will be over with your strawberries and cream. I hope you will introduce me to your daughter properly then.

[Tony laughs at that come back. He pulls the kitten to his chest and turns the camera, giving Regis a bright grin.]

Door will be open for you!

[Tony kissed the little girl's head right before shutting off the feed. He sent a text to Gladio to let him know Regis would be over shortly. Just as he was getting up to go check on the brownies in the oven, his partner was walking in the door.]

That was a waste of a text.

That what that was?

[He'd heard his phone chime but had figured he'd check it once he was back home. Gladio closed the door behind him and paused, frowning at what he was smelling.]

... Morning backing? Really? What's the occasion?

[He'd been out for a run, the usual route, he'd been out for almost an hour and... was probably in dire need for a shower but he couldn't help wandering over to the kitchen to see just what Tony was up to.]

Yep! The princess and I weren't keeping track of how long you'd been gone.

[Since Gladio had made himself available at such an opportune time, Tony handed over their kitten so he could get the brownies out. No one liked brownies that were overdone, did they?]

Reggie's coming over to meet Azure. He loves sweets so I thought I'd treat him.

[He took the kitten with a grin and lifted her to let her perch on his shoulder and leaned his other shoulder against the wall, just watching Tony. Azzy seemed like like his facial hair, she loved to rub herself against his cheek and Gladio had no problems with this.]

Think I've time to grab a shower before he gets here?

[No way he can sit around chatting to the former King of Lucis all sweaty from his run.]

[Tony set the brownies on top of the stove and then checked when his call with Regis ended. He debated internally, but with an entirely different question before deciding the answer was no.]

Yeah, take your time. He's going to be too distracted by Azzy to care about you anyway.

[He grinned playfully. He hesitated from getting too close. The guy was sweaty!]

If you take too long though, I want pictures.

[Gladio smirked. Tony might not have gotten too close, but he was close enough. He reached out and grabbed his partner by the front of his shirt, tugged him forward and leaned in to kiss him.]

Mm... I'll remember that.

[Still grinning, he handed the kitten back over and slipped away. He yanked his shirt off as he crossed the living room and contemplated just when would be the best time to embarrass Tony while Regis was visiting...]

[Tony chuckled as he kissed back.

Once Gladio left, he got his coffee and moved back to the couch. Whenever Regis arrived, he'd find Tony laying on the couch with Azure on his chest playing clumsily with his fingers that he was wiggling in front of her.]

Hey Reg!

Hello!

[Out of habit, Regis knocks on the door before following Tony's voice to him. Once inside, he pauses, smelling the air.]

Oh, I see how it is. You couldn't wait 10 minutes for strawberries, could you?

[Tony's smile only grew wider and he gestured for Regis to set his stuff down and join him. He'd told Regis on multiple occasions that he had an open invitation to make himself at home here but he also understood how ingrained those etiquette lessons were.]

And miss out on treating you to a sinfully decadent treat? What sort of pseudo-Shield-replacement would I be? Hot brownies, sliced strawberries, and fresh vanilla ice cream.. doesn't get much better than that.

[Unless you were his wife and then she liked raspberries and/ or bananas with hers. It was an odd he'd gotten so attached to these red berries here when she had been allergic to them, but they reminded him of her.

He carefully sat up and handed over the squeaky little fuzzball.]

In the meantime, why don't you get acquainted with Azure? I tell ya, this place keeps spoiling me with these gifts and I'm going to be the happiest porn star for the gods.

[It's funny. Once Cor had mentioned being a Shield stand in as well and Regis has not reacted well to that. Perhaps, it was because they were so new to this place and part of him hoped that Clarus would show up as well. Perhaps, it was just because he was missing his old friend so much. After all, he had just been there. Whatever the reason, he has apparently grown passed it now because Regis only finds himself chuckling when Tony gives himself the title.

Of course, it might also just be because he is so easily bribed with sweet treats, and Tony is right. There isn't much better than that.

He has hardly emptied his hands and taken a seat when a small, squeaky fuzzball is placed into them and all other thoughts in his head disappear.]

Well, hello Princess Azure. It is a pleasure to meet you! Your short dad still needs to work on his introductions, but I'll let it pass for now.

[Regis looks passed the kitten and gives Tony a wink.]

At this rate, you're going to get that harem you wanted. Good things come to those who work hard?

[Tony would've apologized if he'd been told the title stealing had made Regis uncomfortable. For the older man, it wouldn't be the first time the phrase had been used but this was a different time and among different people. Every now and then, it was easy to forget precisely where that line was drawn.

He was almost to the kitchen when his friend added a surprise title to someone else and stopped him in his tracks. Had Gladio told Regis that?! His partner was in so much trouble!

The kitten's name was totally Princess Azure.

Tony tried to recover and not look as flustered as he was at Regis knowing the kitten's secret full name.]

Uh.. yeah..

[Wait, what was he agreeing to? He replayed it in his head and laughed.]

Guess so. If you're wondering, Gladio is holding auditions.
