Matthew smiled gently as the confused chick was set in his hands. He reached up, gently rubbing her head.
"So," he asked. "What are you going to name them?"
Matthew smiled gently as the confused chick was set in his hands. He reached up, gently rubbing her head.
"So," he asked. "What are you going to name them?"
"Timmy, Tammy, and Tommy! Like we talked about earlier." Rowan laughed. "Timmy can be the cuddly one and Tommy can be the sleepy one."
Matthew nodded.
"Okay then!" Matthew smiled down at Tammy, chuckling faintly as she tried to get up his own arm. Timmy was still clinging to Rowan's finger, staring up at him with wide eyes and a soft smile. Timmy was already asleep, wings tucked around himself.
"We should make little clothes for them! Since you know how to sew and all…" Rowan gently rubbed Timmy's head with his thumb. "They're pretty cute…"
Timmy let out a little trill, leaning into the rubbing.
"Perfect! They'll look great in little outfits." Matthew set Tammy down back in the nest, smiling.
"Mhmm! Tommy's still sleeping… you've been in there for ages, bud. Look around a bit!" Rowan laughed softly and held Timmy a bit closer to himself.
Timmy nuzzled into Rowan, wings folding around Rowan's finger. Matthew gently nudged Tommy. The chick slowly woke up, sitting up and yawning. He blinked up at Rowan, probably having the largest and brightest eyes of the three chicks. Matthew smiled gently.
"I don't think Timmy will enjoy me holding him as much as me."
"Yeah… I think he likes me." Rowan smiled softly down at the chicks. "Morning, sunshine. You finally awake?" He held one finger out to Tommy.
Tommy sniffed a bit, shakily standing up to rest his head on Rowan's fingers. He yawned lightly.
"Aww," Matthew said gently.
"Wonder why he's so tired? Do you think he's sick or something?" Rowan asked nervously, moving his hand to support the chick better.
"He's not sick," Matthew promised gently. "He was smelling your scent. He must just be naturally tired. He is a baby, after all. They all react to hatching differently." He reached over, lightly running a finger on Tommy's head and back. The chick let out a soft trill, leaning into the rubbing.
"I guess so… I just wanna make sure they're all doing okay, you know?" He held Timmy close to himself and kept a close eye on Tammy.
Tammy was looking over the nest, having crawled to the top of it with a grin. Timmy nuzzled into Rowan, unlatching from his finger a moment in favor of climbing into Rowan's pocket. Matthew chuckled a bit at the chaos.
"Guess he's gonna chill in there. I guess that's easier than the nest." Rowan laughed softly. "How's Tommy doing?"
Matthew chuckled a bit as well. He looked down at the chick, who was blinking up at both of them. He had sat down, yawning a bit and making grabby hands. Matthew pulled out a grub, but the chick shook his head.
"Perhaps he wants something to cuddle with?" Matthew noted.
Rowan gently rubbed the chick's head again and held his finger down to him to hold onto. "Maybe… he does seem to be very cuddly. That's alright, though."
Tommy held onto Rowan's finger, yawning again and closing his eyes.
"I could make them soft toys to cuddle with," Matthew said, thinking a moment.
"Ooh, that would be good! I know I've still got some plushies in my apartment, so once I get back, I can get them for them. I think they'd like to cuddle with them…"
Matthew nodded a bit, smiling.
"Will they be small enough? Or will we give them you sized ones to cuddle and sleep with?" Matthew smiled gently.
"Mm… mine are all like, normal sized, you know? They're not huge or anything, but they're not teeny. They could cuddle up with an arm or something, maybe?"
"It sounds absolutely adorable," Matthew said, smiling. He carefully lifted Tommy back over to Rowan's hand.
"Now… I should hold Timmy now, but I'm not sure he wants me to."
"Yeah, he's pretty clingy… I'm not sure he'll let go out me." Rowan carefully tried to lift Timmy out of his pocket, but the chick whined in protest and held tighter to him.
Matthew chuckled lightly.
"Here, I'll just rub him lightly while he's holding onto you, how about that?" He smiled, staying close to Rowan.
"Sounds good to me." Rowan smiled softly, holding one hand against his pocket to comfort Timmy so that Matthew could pet him.
Matthew gently reached over, lightly petting Timmy. The chick moved closer to Rowan, not exactly not liking the affection, but not liking it either.
