Your most recent ask about little Al and Vox just made me think of little Vox having a tantrum because he wants to play with Alastor but he can't anymore. His caregivers trying to calm Vox down he's not having none of it because "he wants to play with his friend now!"
Oh my gosh that's so sad I love it!
I think little!Al and little!Vox would both struggle with that.
Alastor being more confused as to why Vox isn't around and searching for him... then getting upset when he can't find him.
Rosie: "Alastor, what are you looking for, little deer."
Alastor: *Looks around.* "Mm, fmmm-fox."
Alastor: *sighs, starting to get frustrated.* "No. Da...mmm-" *Trying to pronouse the V.* "Fff-Mm-Zzz-Box!"
Alastor: *Shakes his head as tears start to fall down his face. He whines.* "No! F-Box!"
Rosie: *Frowns* "I'm sorry, darling. I don't know what you're saying."
*Alastor starts crying, and so Rosie picks him up and tries to comfort him.* "Hey, Shh. It's okay. It's alright."
Alastor: *Crying still, he mumbles incoherently about a Fox- or Box. She still hasn't a clue.*
Rosie: *Nods and hums gently as she rocks him to sleep.* "It's okay, sweetie. I got you."
And Vox having a full meltdown because he can't go play with Alastor.
Velvette: "Yes, dear. What is it?"
Vox: "Can Alastor come over to play?"
Velvette: "Sorry, love. No. How about instead we play-"
Vox: *Whines* "But I want to play with Al!"
Velvette: "Sorry, dear. Not today."
Vox: "You always say that! Why can't I play with him anymore?!"
Velvette: "Well... there's a lot of reasons. Your bigger self wouldn't like it -"
Velvette: "And Alastor doesn't really want to play with you right now."
Vox: *Screen eyes filling with tears.* "What do you mean? Of course he does. We always like playing together."
Velvette: *Shakes her head.* "I'm sorry, hun. But, he doesn't." *She takes Vox's hand*
Vox: *Pulls his hand away.* "No! I want to see Alastor! I want to play with Al!"
Vox: "No! I want to play with Al! And I want to play with him now!" *Vox glitches violently, which only makes him more upset.*
Velvette: *Sits next to him* "Vox, love. Please calm down. Let's take a few deep breaths and-"
Vox: "No! I want-" *Glitches* "To play-" *Glitches* "With!" *Glitches* "Al!" *Glitch* "Now!" *Vox short-circuts, and as a result cries harder.*
Velvette: *Hands Vox his shark plushie to snuggle with.*
Vox: *Takes it and mumbles.* "Thanks." *He hugs his shark close.*
Velvette: *Sits next to him.* "I know you miss your friend, but right now, it's just not possible to have him over... things are different now. But we can play if you'd like."
Vox: *Sniffles sadly.* "Mkay..."
Velvette: *Reaches for his hand.* "Come on."
Vox: *Takes her hand while holding his plushie in the other.*
