Justin didn't hesitate for a moment before taking the pictures to look at, grinning. "Awww, he's a right chip off ol' block. He's getting your curls for a start." Giving Leo a little head pat. He knew of those insecurities, "Yeah, you want to give them the best in everything." Turning towards him again, "I think you have nothing to worry about with him. He's definitely going to love you for being there and at least trying." He had some experience with that. "Here's my little princess, Lucilla." He took out his mirror, before passing it over to Leo. He could see little Lucy still snoozing away. "It's hard being away from her at times, least I can always keep an eye on her while my mate and siblings are looking after her." Leo definitely could relate to that, he bet.


Rocking? Oh? Grinning Leo asked "So Barty showed an interest in the new first years? Does he do that often? You managed to stay dry I hope?" Justin had almost gotten a hand shake whereas Leo hadn't had much luck of encountering Barty the squid at all. Merlin knew he had tried though several times unsuccessfully.

Glancing over at Jackson's picture with love in his eyes he nodded. "Yes Jackson is getting my curls but he'll be blond and blue- eyed like his mother. It'll be interesting to see who he takes after most." But it'd be some time yet before Jackson showed that.

It felt reassuring to hear Justin's next words. He understood exactly how Leo felt. It made everything a little better and less scary somehow. "Yes with love you will get a long way. Parenting is a lot of trial and error and forgiving isn't it?" Felt good to talk to another man about this and not just Cassie. Justin provided a welcomed second perspective.

Accepting the mirror from Justin, he looked at little girl snoozing away happily and said raising his gaze to his friends eyes and reaching out to give his arm a pat as he handed the mirror back. "I can definitely relate. It's hard to be away from them. I sometimes feel like I miss a lot of Jackson's firsts while I'm here working but it can't be helped. What we do here is important too." At least that was what Cassie reminded him when he was unhappy.
