pride untamed

It was hard not to laugh at that. It was hard to imagine someone who couldn't take care of themselves who wasn't a child. Even back in hell, she had always lived around people who could take care of themselves - some who just didn't want to because they were to tired but people who could take care of themselves none the less.

"I can only imagine how the first couple years when you began taking care of him." The young woman giggled, trying to at least be respectful of it. She put her hands up in a sense of mock defense. "I will say nothing to Enzo about what you've said about him. But I am glad to hear that he is getting better.

"Look at it this way. Whether or not he lives in the house itself, he will still be living with a bunch of rowdy kids. So he'll have to grow up a little faster with us around... But moving on. What should the kids start calling you? If you're adopting them, your first name isn't going to work. Officer and Genovese are rather formal... And just, everything. Them calling you dad is out of the question."

"Dad is definitely out of the question," Angelo said. "I'm not a dad. I'm not old enough to be a dad to like... any of you. Maybe the youngest? But not really anyone else. I think Angelo is fine, honestly. Angelo is what Shay calls me, Angelo is what everyone calls me. I go by Angelo to everyone, and it's not like I have a more personal name I can cough up for them to call me."

Definitely not dad. Definitely not Officer Genovese. What was wrong with Angelo? He didn't really see an issue.

Cordelia looked over all of the various options in her mind, trying to find a suitable name. She had this same dilemma when she became a Rosales. Two pride demons - Dad, Brother, just Vito. For a month or so she called him 'dadbro'. That had been an experience - she chuckled at the memory and looked him over with a mildly confused expression.

"I think I've heard Caelin call you fluffy..." And whether or not she actually thought if he could hide something in there was irrelevant. "...Yeah I think Angelo would be fine for now." She nodded for now, playing with the cup for a moment as she evaluated another thought process. "Is there anything else you needed to speak about, or should I leave you to your extensive amounts of paperwork?"

Angelo let out a laugh at fluffy.

"She's not the only one," Angelo pointed out. "I've been fluffy to a lot of people. I mean, it fits, but it's probably not terribly, uh... friendly? Close? It's a bit impersonal."

Which basically was just pointing out the obvious--people who hated him called him fluffy, never mind kids he adopted.

"I can't really think of anything to ask, no. Thanks for the help with the food though." The sandwich had been good, although he was, being entirely honest, still sort of hungry.

Not that he was going to admit that.

With that, he gave a little nod and excused himself to return to the mountain of paperwork he'd left behind.
