She waved her arms in the air with a giggle of delight and Loni grinned brightly. It may make her come across as being a bad mother that just trusted a stranger with her child, but that absolutely wasn’t the case! Normally she wouldn’t just hand Luci over to anyone- the doppelganger situation aside. But Vin knew Paloma… And not just that, they’d walked away and left Loni alone with her! If it was someone dangerous Vin would be there growling and chasing her away. Plus, Paloma was so friendly! Loni felt an immediate connection with her… Which was nice, because it was so rare for her and Vin to get on with the same people! Though really, Vin should get on with Momo as much as Loni did… Vin wasn’t so happy to hear Paloma’s shout about how cute they’d been, turning away from Destiny to shoot her a withering glare. Letting those two talk had been a mistake… But it was better than letting Marco keep flirting with their sister. At least Paloma was so into him she wouldn’t let Loni turn back around and start flirting. [color=51684c]”I was never cute.”[/color] Loni giggled at their denial followed by showing the two women their back. She was so sure she could see a bit of a blush on their cheeks! Aw… They were so in denial about their feelings. [color=ff7360]"Of course, you can just put your number in and I’ll text ya!"[/color] Loni said brightly, switching from the adorable photo of toddler Vin possessively gripping Stripes to their contacts. She added a new one and handed her phone over to Paloma to fill in. [color=ff7360]"Y’know, Vin still has it- the Beanie Baby! They say it’s cause toys are expensive and they just knew I’d have a kid sometime, but I don’t believe ‘em… I think it’s cause they couldn’t bear to part with Stripes! Y’know, bet that’s where they got the tiger inspiration from too."[/color] Loni waggled her eyebrows with a laugh, taking her phone back once Paloma had entered her number. She quickly sent her the picture and a couple more recent ones of Vin she had- mostly with Luci, since that was the only time Vin let her take photos. Then a text saying ‘it’s Loni!’ just in case. [color=ff7360]"You definitely gotta use one of these for them… You can barely see who it is there! Could be anyone- oh, who’s wearing that cute outfit in the back? It’s kinda like a sailor outfit."[/color] Loni babbled, with Luci adding her own nonsensical words to it. She leaned forward in Paloma’s arms, hands reaching out towards her Mama. Loni obliged and moved towards her, expecting she wanted taken back… Only to find her daughter wanted to grab and tug at her hair. Well, better than ripping out Paloma’s, she guessed. [color=ff7360]"Oh, also, feel free to text me anytime! Any [i]friend[/i] of Vin’s is a friend of mine… Don’t gotta be cause I need babysittin’, cause that’d be no fun. Oh, you said you worked at a hospital, which one?! I assume one of the big ones… Uh, there’s the general and the kids one, right? Or was there also some super posh one too…"[/color]
