"That is not a bad idea, Charcoal! That is, indeed, a more intimate and respectful way of addressing Master."
Golden Flash nodded and raised his head in Watson's arms after hearing Charcoal's words. He had a look of admiration and delight on his face. "From now on, Father Watson, you are our father."
"Don't call me that. I am only 12 years old. It is far too strange. Please refer to me as Brother! Did you hear what I said, Golden Flash?"
Watson coughed in response to Golden Flash's words. The twinkle in Golden Flash's eyes indicated that he was not listening at all. After a brief pause, he patted Golden Flash's silky hair and silently agreed to let them call him Father.
Golden Flash had been with him the longest. Watson was overjoyed to see Golden Flash transform into a human and freely communicate with him.
"I want a hug too, Father."
