Chase leaned back, cradling his chin between thumb and forefinger, his divine aura humming softly in the Christmas-lit living room. The soft crackle of the enchanted fireplace echoed in the background, adding warmth and glow to the snowy night. His hoodie shifted as Lyra, still snuggled up against his side, tilted her head in thought.
"Hmm, Lyra, don't you have one more animal to pick?" Chase asked casually, already sensing he wasn't getting off the hook that easily.
Lyra blinked, then gasped, her eyes widening as though she had just remembered she left a divine oven on. "Oh! I forgot I had a wyvern like Auri~! Though mine is going to be a starlight and love wyvern obviously~ pink and purple!" she squealed, practically vibrating with excitement.
Chase gave a long, practiced sigh. Of course. Of course it would be pink and purple. "Obviously," he echoed dryly, though the edges of his lips twitched up in a fond smile.
