Lincoln's Little Helper [Loan/Lincoln] [/tlvg/]

>"Hello~" Loan says, waving to Lincoln.
>"Hello." Lincoln replies to Loan's excitement.
>"Hello~" Loan says again.
>"Come here, Loan." Lincoln says as he motions with his hand, Loan toddles over and Lincoln lifts her up and into his lap.
>Lincoln turns back to his shading work, he needed to get this manuscript out soon.
>"Buh?" Loan says, pointing to a figure.
>"That's Ace Savvy, Loan. He's a big strong hero and he helps people." Lincoln says, carefully to keep Loan away from the screen.
>"Ayssh!" Loan says.
>"Ay-s. Ace Sa-vy." Lincoln says as he pick his stylus back up.
>Loan claps as the picture comes to life with the touch of Lincoln's stylus.
>"You're so cute." Lincoln says as he pinches one of Loan's cheeks playfully. "You want to be my little helper?"
>"Yes!" Loan says, no understanding the question in the slightest.
>"Well, okay-" DING DONG! Lincoln turns to the door. "I thought she was going to text. Up we go!"
>Lincoln lifts up Loan and heads for the door.
>He opens the door to reveal Lori, looking tired, Loan cheers immediately.
>"I thought you were going to text." Lincoln says as he hands her over.
>"Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. I meant to, but- heh, I forgot. Hi, Loan~" Lori says as she waves to the toddler.
>"Hello!" Loan replies.
>"Thanks for taking care of her, Linc. You're a lifesaver." Lori says.
>"I mean, what are uncles for?" Lincoln shrugs.
>"Y-yeah, I guess you're right. What're you up to?"
>"I'm just finishing up that manuscript. It's going well, especially with my little helper!" Lincoln tickles Loan a bit.
>"I'll leave you to that then. Are you going to that dinner at Mom and Dad's?" Lori says.
>"Yeah, free food. See you there?" Lincoln jokes.
>"Yeah, why not?" Lori says. "I'll see you then."
