I'm very good with my hands.
[ Mako says primly; take that how you will, Becket, because they both know she could please you senseless when she puts her mind to it. Mako's delicately drawing a ring around his finger (because yeah, after being in a nuclear powered jaeger for so long, you're worried about a little ink?), making sure that there's a little black diamond in that "ring".
Mako grins at him when she's done, pleased with her handiwork and pressing a soft kiss to his knuckles. ] So, I'll take this as a yes.

[ That makes her smile, though -- Raleigh's always been the sweetest soul who's never failed to make her feel better every chance he gets. But she really doesn't mind if their baby boy likes him better.] Silly.
Is she really? I'm sure he'd like to pet an elephant. Or would you like to? I think people can still feed them food for a little fee.

[ Mako chalks that up to Raleigh's overdeveloped Daddy sensors, her frustration at being denied sex with him rapidly dissipating when their baby sounds... off, somehow, and she doesn't need to be told twice when she goes straight for the first aid kit she'd stashed away in the baby's room in case they needed quick access.
She has the digital one out too, and she hands it over to him, worried but not panicking. She's hovering; fevers happen, as long as they didn't go past a certain degree he'd be all right sleeping it off. ]

[ Of course she sees it, baby, she knows -- Raleigh's spent so much time and effort making their home a welcome place, raising their baby boy without any prior experience on his own; it's tough work, and she's so, so proud of him. They'd always worked as a team during the K-War, and even now, they're a well-oiled team, too: Mako brings home the money, and Raleigh manages the home and the finances while Mako takes over from him after work.
Yancy is giggling, pressing wet, happy kisses on his mother's cheek -- he doesn't completely understand why she's so pleased, but he likes that Mommy is smiling, and so is Daddy, and therefore all is well.
She draws nearer to Raleigh so that she can kiss his lips briefly. Look what Raleigh did, indeed. He's never been happier, prouder of his achievements, and she knows it, giving him his due. ] You're right. It's just... hard, sometimes.

[ something like that! Also yes, because he needs to be older so that he doesn't cry and irritate all the passengers in their cabin. ]

<font face=courier new">That sounds good. Do you think he will mind us going over?

...No, I think he'd cry.
[ sorry mako our son is a crybaby it's not Raleigh's fault, promise. ]
You could feed it and he and I could watch. He might have a heart attack but he's young, he'll recover. Especially if we buy overpriced zoo ice cream afterwards.

[ they can't get the sensitive end of the thermometer in yancy's mouth when he's wailing like that, but it's easy enough to get it under his armpit. not that that makes raleigh feel any better when it's beeping and proclaiming that he's got a 101 degree temperature. which isn't awful, sure, but enough to make raleigh worry.
there's something simultaneously nervous and agitated about the way he starts to bounce their kid, and after a moment he looks desperately at mako: ]
What are we supposed to do for this? Should we take him to a hospital?
[ so not above using hero status to get priority attention. ]

[ hey ink is dangerous, the meds in those little tin boxes don't do shit for ink. ]
It's permanent marker, I can't very well say no at this point, [ raleigh teases, but he's so entirely behind this idea. so behind it; if mako being mako wasn't enough to make him fall head over heels in love with her — he is growing physically shaky with impatience of being her husband now that the offer's been put on the table — her dexterity would certainly seal the deal.
but on a more serious joke, and he's leaning in to maybe kiss her after rumbling quietly, sincerely: ]
Yes. Yes, Mako. I would love nothing more than to marry you.

I know, babe, [ he tells her, picturesque understanding and empathy. she gets another kiss on her forehead after the initial one, just for comfort. and just because he wants to. this is totally something that should be hard and take time to get used to, but she shouldn't feel bad. ]
Tell you what, when he falls on his face and actually hurts himself, you can be the first to comfort him — get all the worrying out of your system when it's appropriate. [ casually talking about their baby hurting himself? yup. raleigh smiles and ruffles yancy's hair. ] It's in his genetics, he'll fall lots.
