Its been so long—a year as he points out—since they were like this last, and in the wonderful monotony of their strange family life, she's almost forgotten what it is to think of Finn as more than just her co-parent.

Tobi adds, before glancing down between their warm coats where their hands are clasped. Nodding a touch shyly, she swallows, and when she glances back up, her cheeks are round and flushed. "Yes, please. I like when you hold my hand."
