Could I get a glimpse into a happier kinder timeline where Luzu got to meet Tilin and be their dad… so I can live in a peaceful delusion 🥹 Maybe Q is there as well if you’d like 🥹
Quackity is “buying milk” again, leaving Luzu watching his kid for the first time.
It’s a weird feeling, sitting on the couch watching cartoons with a slightly malnourished child wearing too-big clothes, especially when Luzu knows that Tilin doesn’t know he’s their dad. Especially when he knows that Tilin knows that the only reason they’re at Luzu’s house in the first place is because Quackity’s friend Wilbur has arrived back from his tour and has acquired a delightful little daughter, and Quackity has never been one to not play favorites. (And Wilbur, apparently, is the favorite.)
“Can we change the channel?” Tilin asks.
“Of course,” Luzu replies, reaching for the remote. “What do you want to watch?”
Tilin shrugs. “We don’t have a tv at home, so I don’t know what to watch.”
Luzu’s heart twists. He turns on Nickelodeon. It’s SpongeBob. Cool.
Tilin’s eyes light up, and they turn their attention back to the screen.
They have Quackity’s nose, Luzu thinks, but they have his eyes. It makes him wonder how the whole dragon thing works, how the mother dragon managed to combine her DNA and Quackity’s and Luzu’s into one tiny little sad child. It makes his brain hurt.
“Turn the tv up,” Tilin demands, and Luzu does so, smiling to himself as he does. One day, either he or Quackity will tell them the truth. For now, he’s just happy to be here with them.
