"And just a splash of this."

Laurel watched as Papa finished 'tirrin' stuff that was the tolor of fire. Papa lifted the doblet and took a drink.

"Ah, a perfect libation to calm your Daddy's frayed nerves, my little princess."

Laurel clapped her hands in delight. Daddy'd had a bad day, even though he'd 'taved ever'body! Kissing her, Papa lifted Laurel down from her he'ping 'tool.

"Daddy! Papadatabatontoru!" Papa's got a libation for you!

Sevvy smiled at her from Daddy's lap, where he was taking tare of their Daddy. T'rowing her arms up, Laurel waited for Sevvy to he'p her.




Snuggled close, Sevvy knew that Daddy 'preciated his tomfort as he patted Daddy's cheek. He heard Lulu laugh and Sevvy leaned down to help little sister trawl up onto Daddy's lap. They needed to stay t'ose to reassure him after that big ol' torrie tried to hit all the 'til'dren in the p'aypark!

Daddy had taved them when he made the torrie 'top! Sevvy frowned as he remembered the rewd lady with the tamera who upset his Daddy.

Lulu looked at him, grinning, and Sevvy couldn't help but giggle. The rewd lady had looked funny with 'treen and or'nge hair!




Harry rolled his eyes as Sevvy helped Laurel into his lap. Sensitives they might be, but it was more like any excuse to cuddle. With a long suffering sigh, Harry allowed both his cheeks to be patted as his babies began to giggle.

The trembling from seeing an out-of-control lorrie bearing down on the village's little playground had subsided, finally. His instinctive bit of wandless magic would have passed unnoticed by relieved parents, if Rita Skeeter hadn't shown up.

"A fortifying libation to settle your nerves, my Harry."

Harry eyed the Firewhiskey in his husband's hand. "Calming Draught?"

"Of course."




Extracting Harry from toddler clutches, Severus sent the children to play under Kreacher's watchful eye. Seating himself, Severus tugged Harry into his lap, savoring the warmth and weight.

"Calming Draught in my Firewhiskey," Harry was amused.

"Just a touch," Severus whispered against his lips before kissing him thoroughly.

His own reaction to the accident had been one of anger and a slow smile spread as he thought of his children's Slytherin tendencies.

"Severus? You don't think I'm the next Dark Lord, do you?"

Rita Skeeter would regret the day she crossed a Snape, Severus decided, reassuring Harry nonverbally and completely.

Its sad the way Harry worries that he's *the next dark lord* as if Severus would ever allow that to happen, its awesome that the children changed Skeeters hair, she won't mess with them again in a hurry

Rita is going to have more than the babies to worry about, I think! :-)

Those kids are such cute little terrors. Changing Rita Skeeter's hair green and orange would be hilarious to see. They love their Daddy and Papa so much, and nobody messes with their family, EVER!

Poor Harry, worrying over an article written by that woman of all people. If he was going to be the next Dark lord Harry wouldn't be capable of love and he wouldn't of saved the kids at the park.

I want to see what Severus does to Rita Skeeter to make her regret crossing a Snape!

Oh, Dear Harry. I do believe worrying about it, is the first sign it won't happen. :)

And Please, be as creative with Rita as you can? :D

The kids' magic is quite harmless now but growing up they will be more creative and Rita will be doomed :D

That Skeeter is a menace. *smacks her*
Poor Harry. Good thing he has his babies and his Severus to comfort him. :)
Lovely, sweetie!

Another fun installment in the series. The kids can tell when people are 'rewd' and react in such creative ways. Just one typo that I noticed.

"have past unnoticed" should be "have PASSED unnoticed".

Aw, the babies (or should I say toddlers - they're getting so big!) certainly know how to take care of their Daddy. I think it's cute that they snuggled him and patted his cheeks.

Poor Harry. He can't live a normal life. People questioned him when he didn't "do" anything with himself other than have Sevvy and Lulu (like being a parent's not a 24-7 job, especially with his two), and they question him when he saves his children and other people's children. He can never please them.

Rita Skeeter better watch out! Sevvy and Lulu are unlikely to forget her "rewdness" and somehow, I think they will be even more creative the next time they see her. *grins*

Lovely as always.
