Sometimes a family is you, your possibly immortal wife, the kid you had with said possibly immortal wife, and the ghost lady that haunts that very same wife. Christmas presents from said wife were sweaters that she knitted for everyone. Merry Christmas!

For @rfweeks day 20 prompt Oceans. Sorry it's a bit late haha but a lot has been happening in my life recently. I didn't want to miss this though since these games are incredibly dear to my heart.
Ahh, the fact that I could already fall behind... shameful. So here is day 1 and 2, “sprout” and “exploration”. Thank you to @rfweeks for hosting this lovely countdown! I’m so excited!
Happy Rune Factory 4 Special! Here’s a little writing for @rfweeks!

Arthur/Lest (Feat. Baby Noel): Established Relationship
SFW
Lest watched as Noel stood on his tippy-toes to lift himself as high as possible against the door frame. The look of concentration on his face was laughable, but Lest held back a giggle as Arthur tutted.
“No, no,” he said. “You have to stand flat on your feet. Back to the door, that’s it.”
“But dada,” Noel whined. “I wanna be tall.”
“You will be, but we need to see how tall you actually are.”
Noel pouted but did as he was told, and Arthur ticked a mark just above Noel’s head. Noel jumped back, and admired his name written in Arthur’s neat script just above the mark.
“Oh!” he said. “I growed five inches.”
“You grew about one inch, bud,” Lest laughed. “Good job!” He threw up his hands and Noel ran into the hug and was lifted into the air. Arthur came up to them both, misty eyed.
“Don’t stay small long, do they?” he asked. Lest smiled.
“No,” he said. “They really don’t.”
He remembered when he’d first come--err fell into--Selphia. It had been hard without his memory, without anyone who knew who he’d been, but the town had welcomed him with open arms. He’d awoken the Guardians, lost Venti, then got her back again. He’d grown with this town, married Arthur and adopted little baby Noel into their family. It all seemed so far away, that worry about his loss of memory.
He had new memories now. And they’d continue to grow, alongside Noel and Arthur, and everyone in the town.
Together they all made one beautiful garden, and Lest was pretty sure he wouldn’t have wanted to grow anywhere else.
It’s a free day and I can draw whatever I want and that means BADO.
I’m so excited for RF4S. I can’t believe this series lives again, I’m so happy. 😭😭😭 Also thanks to RFweeks for arranging this week for everyone to express their love for the series, and thanks to everyone filling the tag with wonderful RF content. You are all the real MVPs.

I can’t believe I’m posting fic for rf4 again in 2020. Is this a 2014 fever dream? For real though, I haven’t been this excited about a game release in years. Come celebrate with me, laugh with me, and drown in Leon’s flirtatious teasing once again.
