"Hey." I lean back to look at Valentine. "Good timing. Switch out with me."
Lucas seems relieved by my timing. "Please. He's a menace. I can't deal with the world before coffee, not when he's in it."
Valentine lifts a brow. "Psssht." He dismisses Lucas and flutters his hands, seemingly nonchalant.
"Alright, then. I suppose I should relieve you." He agrees easily and walks over to take over the reigns from me.
I pull myself back into the wagon from the driver's bench.
I manage to steady myself just in time to be ready for a May Missile Attack, the child colliding with me in an excited tackle hug as soon as my feet hit the floor.
"Morning Auntie!"
I smile, and pat her head fondly. "Good morning, May." I greet back warmly.
Roland cracks open an eyelid, then blinks slowly, like a sleepy bear.
May beams at Roland, and Roland blinks at her slowly once again, then huffs, like the lazy old man he is.
