Deaged Oz AU... oh Oz, you might need to cut down on your sugar intake
More softness for @maskyartist Qrow was the first to notice the trembling in Oz's hands.
"Uh, pocket sized? Hey, Oz... are you okay?"
"Why wouldn't I be?"
"Only, you're shivering. Oz, you're not sick, are you?"
"No? I just feel more energetic than normal. It might be a delayed reaction to something?"
"Maybe, or... how much sugar have you had today?"
"Not that much? Only a couple of cups of cocoa. Why?"
Qrow closed his eyes as the realisation hit. "Kid, you... haven't you noticed you tend to get bouncy around too much sugar? Ruby and Yang were the same at your age, it's why Tai always said not to give them much... think it might be best if you avoided it for a bit?"
Oz's face fell and Qrow was quick to amend his statement slightly. 'Hey now, I don't mean completely. Just, maybe one cup a day?" Oz was pouting, though, looking up at Qrow with enormous brown eyes and he could feel himself wavering. No. Dammit, Oz wasn't actually a kid and it wasn't like he was a pushover.
"One cup. Seriously, Oz. You're no good to anyone if you're..." He broke off, sighing. *Okay, maybe two..."
There was snickering behind him as Ruby and Yang traded smirks. That had gone just like it used to when they were children. Sometimes, Uncle Qrow could be a real pushover.
