So while Lan Wangji is gone, Magnus eases Drosera into his lap and settles her down with scratches in her favorite places. "You're gonna be meeting your... uncles, I guess?" he murmurs, voice pitched low and soothing. "If you're really nice and you don't scare them or try to eat them, I'll give you a really good treat later."

Drosera wiggles around in his lap, baring her belly, yellow eyes squinting at him. floppy fish??? baby kill?????

"Floppy fish," Magnus confirms. "Just for you, okay? But you have to be nice. Rabbits are off-limits, like squirrels, okay?"

fish baby!!!! Drosera says, kicking one of her back paws against Magnus's leg. Which seems like enough of a promise to him?
