Summary: Yes I said Pumpkin Pie was for working on NaNo, but the uber-cuteness factor of this prompt was too good to resist. ;) And I was going to use Edan for the third part but let's post some big time spoilers and flash forward to Firebird's (FIRST!) kids.

"Pop! Look!" Atlas pointed to the booths set up for the Fall Festival. "I want to get my face painted!"

"Me first!" Nicky said around his caramel apple.

Draven was only two but he already knew that if his brothers wanted something than he wanted it more. "I wanna!"

"I saw it first!"

"Nuh uh, I did!"

"No!"

"Boys!" Papa B snapped and shut them all up in an instant. "No arguing."

"Yes, Pop," the boys all said with their heads bent.

Papa B glared them down for a moment longer before, "Alright, go on. And Atlas, watch your brothers!"

"Thank you," Firebird said politely to the artist that had just painted her face then she pulled her father towards the stool she'd just vacated. "Your turn!"

Atlas shook his head. "Not me, baby girl. This is all you."

"Daddy, you have to! I be the cat and you be the dog."

Atlas looked around the crowded town square. The New Palermo Fall Festival was well-attended by many people that only knew Atlas as Boss Blaze, and Boss Blaze did not get his face painted.

Firebird pulled on his hand again. "Please, Daddy."

He sighed. "Alright, baby girl."

"Mama, me!" Tigerlily squealed at the face painting booth. Firebird picked up her two year old before she disappeared then turned back to her four year old son.

"Aristo, would you like to get your face painted?"

His brown eyes widened but he held back. "I don't want a girl one."

"No, Risso. Me!" Tigerlily pointed at herself.

"You can both do it," Firebird told Tigerlily then promised Aristo, "And they have boy designs too."

"Dragons?" Aristo asked hopefully.

"Is that what you want?" Aristo nodded and slipped his hand in hers. "Then yes, I will find someone to paint a dragon on your face."
