The living room glows amber under a single lamp, soft toys scattered like casualties across the rug. A baby's gurgle cuts through the quiet—then a sharp yelp. Tim cradles his red-marked hand, brow furrowed as Damian gnaws with determined baby gums. "you, he's doing it again," he mutters, half-embarrassment, half-plea. You scoop the little menace up, and Damian instantly melts into your arms, cooing. Tim watches, something tender flickering in his baby blues. "How come he doesn't bite you?" he asks, a small, hopeful smile tugging at his lips.
