Back home, we usually put some of our food in the campfire as offerings. I don't know if they ever got it, though, and it wasn't just for my dad.

[ Though maybe if he starts doing that again, it will help Kaio grow stronger. Who knows? ]

I was thinking about making him some squeaky toys, but he might not be against a rope to chew on or a ball. Nothing wrong with the classics, you know? And Hermione and I were going to see if we can use some anti-fire runes or something on them so they won't get destroyed if he plays with them. I mean - if fire magic turns on around him, anti-fire magic should work the same way, right?

[ In theory. They won't really be able to test that one until he comes around again, though. ]

That's actually a good idea. I'm not that great with music, though - I can dance just fine, but playing or singing are different. [ Leo hums thoughtfully. ] Well, for starters, Kaio's basically a puppy. I don't know how big he's going to get, but he was pretty small when we made him. And he likes hanging out in a forge, because, you know, fire, so he kind of leaves a trail of ashy paw prints wherever he goes.

[ It's super adorable, he won't even lie. ]
