"What, so you can go kill yourself again?" Magda asked dryly.

*From the doorway there came a very tiny, very high voice.*
"Mama? Mama I'm thirsty."
*This was an excuse to see who it was in the apartment, but that was beside the point. In the doorway there stood a minuscule girl with unruly hair in a white nightgown.*

"Pretty much, yeah... though you could easily do it with your purse if you want to do me a favor."

Magda shot Alfred a glare before turning around and seeing Lea.
"Lea-belle, you know that's vhy I put steps at the kitchen sink..."
Her tone was lightly scolding, but it didn't stop her from coming over and picking Lea up to show her to Alfred.
"Alfred, sis is my daughter Leadora. Lea, sis is Alfred."

*Lea smiled triumphantly, as that was the desired effect.*
"Hi Alfred!" *She waved from her vantage point, smiling widely and wiggling her toes.*

"Well, it's very nice to meet you, little lady." Alfred smiled at Lea. He slipped into child-present-mode easily because even now he knew no child should have to deal with full-blown depressed suicidal adults.
Since when could vampires have kids? The professor would have a field day with that one.

"It's nice to meet you, too. Are you a vampire like Mama?" *She inquired curiously, wriggling away from her mother to patter over to Alfred.*

"I am indeed." Alfred managed to bare his fangs in a completely non-threatening, child-friendly way.
He wasn't good at being threatening when he wasn't drunk and angry anyhow.

"Oh, Good! I was wondering if any of Mama's vampire friends would come visit. Severus is a human, and Crowley is a demon, but the only vampires who visit are the kind who sparkle and I don't like them very much. Assept for Alice; I like Alice."
*She paused.* "I'm a Hobbit!"

"Lea joined our family almost a year ago," Magda said fondly, smoothing the little hobbit's hair as she spoke.

"That's nice... sounds like you're getting an impressive collection of species around here." He chuckled.

Magda plopped Lea on the edge of the bed to allow her to get a closer look at Alfred.

"Most people don't think Hobbits exist, but then a lot of people don't believe in vampires either. But both of us exist!" *She said brightly, wriggling toes that had a fine dusting of curly hair on them. She was quite proud of the curls that grew there, and wished they would get thicker.* "It's all very exciting. Like there could still be dragons, or even balrogs, like Mister Frodo used to say!"

"Dragons, eh? Those would make for some adventures." He smiled at the little tyke.

"Exactly! One year, one year Gandalf the Grey who isn't Grey anymore, he brought fireworks to Bilbo Baggins's eleventy-first birthday and Merry and Pippin got into them and they set one off and it looked like a dragon and everyone was very scared but I wasn't scared at all it was exciting and then it exploded." *What she said hadn't really mattered, she just liked to talk.*
