Morningside Cuesta and maybe i talk too much but there's so much to say

It was a good thing Khoe wasn't paying attention to Grayday; he was watching her as if she was something that might turn and eat him at any moment, still wavering between fight and flight. But, eventually, he seemed to grasp the Olive branch she was extending, and settled near enough to reach out and pull both girls against his chest. For a moment, he simply cuddled them, a wide smile breaking the stone mask over his face at the sound of Easy's indignant squawk.

"Okay, my little princesses," he said in a low voice, knowing they couldn't hear him, but that they would certainly feel the rumble in his chest. "You first, huh Shara?" Without waiting for a response, he nudged Easy onto her back and washed her belly first, knowing that would calm her down more quickly. Quietly, he hummed a bit of an old song, hoping the vibrations would help soothe Lavender while she waited.
