perfect princess

Venom did not withhold any of her affection to her young children or husband. She knew that Hattori was not naturally physical with his affection. He would do absolutely anything for her, but he was distant with their pups. She knew he couldn’t stand to be his own father, and she could also see the side of him that felt pride in their young offspring. She would only hope that her own closeness with them would help ease Hattori’s distance.

Ikigai didn’t hold back as she returned her mother’s affectionate greeting. Seeing how bright her daughter’s reaction was only lifted Venom’s heart. She grinned lightly as Iki leaned into her and eagerly agreed to show her how she made her little dolls. Venom listened intently, amazed at what her daughter was able to do now in her infancy that she wouldn’t be able to accomplish at all. Pride swelled in her heart so much so that tears welled in her eyes but she refused to allow them to fall.

”That’s amazing, Ikigai.” Venom said softly as she blinked back the last of her unruly emotions and Iki looked up at her victoriously. Maybe her daughter wouldn’t be a warrior, but her talents were exceptional in other areas. ”May I keep it?” She asked while gently lifting the creation adoringly.
