*Scarlett huffed indignantly and continued playing with her dolls. Forcefully. One of the heads was about to fall off if she didn't chill out.*

He opened the box. "Hmmm. Well, these delicious chocolates shouldn't go to waste. I suppose I'll have to eat them, then."

Doll head: *pops off and goes flying across the room, hitting Katie, Teddy, and finally Fitz.*

Fitz closed the box looked at his daughter sternly. "Scarlett, you are not getting a pony and that is final," he said without yelling. None of the children had ever heard Fitz raise his voice, and they never tried to provoke him to do so.

((*pats the brat* You know she's cute. ;D ))
Hmph. *Scarlett went across the room, got her doll head, and popped it back on the doll. Still holding it, she put her little hands on her hips.* Well, how're you gonna feel when I run away an'-an' join the circus? The circus'll let me have a pony. Or someone at the Opera. Mmmhmm. *z-snap*

"Scarlett, you couldn't last a day at the circus. Not because you're weak, but because you wouldn't like it. And I'm sure you can rent a horse from the opera sometime when you're older."

I would so like the circus! *She pouted adorably, looking like a mini-Katie.* An' I am older! I'm older than I was yesterday, see?

He laughed at her and grinned at his wife. "Katie, a little help, please?"

*Katie rolled her eyes and smiled, shaking her head as she scooped up Penn and Fabian.* Uh-uh, big boy. It's your turn to play with the princess. I get off-duty at 6. *She kissed him on the cheek, then slung the twins over her shoulders.* And these two have paint all over them. *The twins giggled as she carried them off to the bathroom to get washed off.*

He sighed. "Scarlett, please, you're not getting a pony. We can't afford it, and you won't want to take care of it."

*She flopped down on the floor with an adorable pout.* Fine. *She looked up at him, her hazel eyes (just like her mother's) wide and innocent.* Can I get a kitten?

He smiled. "Maybe. Do you think you'd be able to take care of it?"

"You'll feed it and clean its litterbox?"

*She nodded again, her eyes super-de-duper wide.* I will, Daddy, I promise!
