Balancing her on her hip, Hermione makes soft noises as she replies, almost cooing, utterly motherly in her nature. ] We'll make dinner in a little while, okay? Maybe when we've done a little bit of work or some reading, closer to dinner time. [ She glances over at Mako and grins. ]
[ "and snap-mes?" mako laughs, and tweaks her nose. ] And snapdragons too, yes.
But you're not getting out of any of the dirt work either, Mione... [ and to prove his point, he smudges some potting soil from one of his seedlings on her cheek. ]
[ rizhao laughs with delight, trying -- and failing -- to hide her smile behind her hands. mako hides his smirk better, picking his way around her to the back yard and the walled in garden. ]

[ And suddenly there's a rather interesting feeling of being tickled all over Mako's body.

Ah — pfffsfs.... shit, Hermione! [ he's nearly doubled over, trying not to laugh or drop anything. ]
Ri! Get— get 'Miney!
[ rizhao shrieks in delight and zooms back in, ready to start her own tickle fight. ]

Rizhao, we have to tell your dad off for saying a bad word!
[ She grins, stepping closer and reaching to offer the toddler her arms. ]
