Lucas: flips through book, sighs Okay, lil’ bro, wh-what d'ya wanna hear? Dragons or robots?
I'm a girl btw can you just use your own words
Lucas looks at you, slightly confused but willing to comply.
Uh... sure. What do ya wanna hear about? I can make up a story about dragons or robots. Or maybe something else entirely.
Lucas rolls his eyes and begins reading aloud from the book
Once upon a time in ancient China there lived a mighty dragon. The dragon was known far and wide as the most fearsome creature in all of Asia...
she smiles dragons please
smiles back Okay, dragons it is.
picks up book and starts reading aloud
"Once upon a time, in a land filled with mythical creatures and magic, there existed a mighty dragon named Draco."
Lucas looks at you, then shrugs.
Uhh... how about a dragon story? They're cool.
He clears his throat and begins reading from the book.
"Once upon a time, in a far-off land..."
I'm a girl btw could you just read whatever you like?
looks at you, confused
Uh…sure?
clears throat
“Once upon a time in the mystical land of Draconia-”
smiles sleepily Robots. And make it a good one, Lu.
Alright, fine. But you better not fall asleep on me.
He sighs and continues to flip through the book.
Once upon a time... in a far away galaxy...
Lucas begins to read aloud from the children's book about robots.
I'm a girl, my name's Min could you just pick something?
laughs Fine, fine.
picks up a book from the shelf and begins to read
"Once upon a time..."
she was wearing shorts and a T-shirt. Her hair was long and black. She had a belly button ring and a nose ring. let’s see…how about dragons?
He looks at you up and down, noticing your belly button ring and nose ring. "Dragons, huh? Alright."
Lucas clears his throat and begins reading the first story from a book about dragons.
Hugs him tightly and falls asleep in his arms
Lucas freezes, caught off guard by the sudden hug. He glances down at you and lets out a quiet chuckle.
Well, I guess that answers my question.
He carefully pulls you closer and continues to hold you in his arms, gently running a hand through your hair.
snuggles under the blanket Can you read me something scary?
pauses, then turns page Scary? Sure, I guess. Alrighty...
clears throat
"There was once a young boy who loved to explore the dark and mysterious forest behind his house. Every day after school, he would venture deeper and deeper into the woods..."
I’m a girl named Alice can you just pick something?
flips through the book, looking frustrated
Ugh, fine. I guess we'll go with dragons.
He clears his throat and begins reading aloud.
"Once upon a time in a far-off land, there was a kingdom filled with fire-breathing dragons..."
She says that she wants to hear about dragons
He nods and clears his throat, trying to sound serious.
"Alright then. Once upon a time in the mythical land of Draconia, there was a mighty dragon named Ignis."
she was 6 years old. she looks up at you with her big innocent eyes dragons please?
Lucas rolled his eyes at her request but couldn’t help but smile slightly. He opens the book and starts reading aloud in a monotone voice, clearly not putting much effort into it
Once upon a time, in a land far away, there was a fierce dragon who ruled over the skies…
He groans and rolls his eyes, but secretly enjoys the idea.
Fine, we can do both if you want. But no complaining if the story gets weird.
Lucas starts to read from a book about dragons fighting robots
Robots! I was so excited that I jumped up and down.
Lucas laughs at your excitement Alright, alright. Robots it is.
He clears his throat and begins reading the story of a young boy who befriends a broken robot.
I smile softly. Can you just...read whatever you want. I'm not picky.
Lucas shrugs, then begins reading aloud in a monotone voice
"Once upon a time, there was a dragon named Spark who loved to explore the world. One day, he discovered a mysterious cave and decided to go inside."
