Back home whenever he loved something he'd shower them with gifts. It was easy to do when you were worth multiple billions. Here it was harder to give gifts. He either had to make it from flour and eggs or scraps of metal he found laying around. The last option, which was the one he was known for doing the most was buying them with his team points. Of course he couldn't just give this gift straight from train store to child, he had to add some kind of personalized touch. So with Ignis' help and a spare pillow case, the mascot bear now had a small white skirt to go along with her red hoodie.

Now to find Madoka. He didn't have her routine memorized like he did Peter's and Ignis' but there was only so many place on the train to be, so before long, he found his daughter and as soon as he spotted her, he smiled. In his hand was a pillowcase with obviously something stuffed inside.

Ignis had spoken to Madoka about training with a bow. It wasn't his thing but if she saw herself in a dream with one then he would do everything in his power to obtain one. Ash was the only one he knew that wielded bows, Sarai might be a possibility as well but that was an option he'd have to check on.

Moving towards the training room he'd invited Tony to accompany or join him here, but so far he was here by himself. Both would be along shortly and he had to teach her first aid. He couldn't pass the king's magic onto her either, but he could help her make the potions and Ignis might be able to make them more effective and give them to her.

He would most certainly try.

There was a lot of sorrow in this approach, but Ignis had to keep himself together. There wasn't much he could do about one situation, however he could follow some 'advice' he got from a dream of a female black cat. He'd never seen the cat before nor did he know of it from back home. But when he inquired as to who She was, he mentally received a name he'd never heard of before.

But the advice was the only thing he could focus on and so he did. Finding Madoka coming out of the kitchen he turned around to face her. "Can you spare a moment?" It was so hard to look her in the face and make sure no tears rolled down but he just kept the advice of the cat in mind.

He was going to do this. The advisor had gotten knocked down before and gotten back up, he could do it again. And if he got his hands on a kitten, he was going to name the little one in that Lady's honour.

Madoka knows she should be sleeping right now. Usually she's really good about that! Even when no one tells her to go to bed on time, she still makes sure to do it out of sheer politeness and force of habit. She has to make sure to get enough sleep after all with all the strange things that happen on the train.

But tonight she's having some real difficulty sleeping. Thankfully not for a bad reason though.. no, she's just that excited about the cute kitty sleeping right there next to her. The poor thing had seemed so weak, and of course Madoka was more than happy to take care of him. She's made sure to make an extra comfy spot for him on her bed by using some of her spare clothes bunched up to a comfy pile as his own little kitty bed. But she can't seem to fall asleep herself. Instead she just keeps watching him as he's sleeping there, so cutely and peacefully..

After a few moments of doing just that though, Madoka's giddiness grows too strong to just lie there and watch him. Although she's making sure to be quiet so she won't wake up any of her roommates, she's sat up on her bed and grabbed some things to make a collar with for the adorable thing. He needs to look cute, after all! For a moment she ponders what kind of decoration to use for it, but then she remembers the shells that were still in her pockets when they were pulled back from that last mission. She carefully looks through them to find the one that looks the nicest and puts it on the collar, smiling at it as she holds it up and admires the finished result.

She moves back over to where the cat is sleeping, reaching out to - very gently and carefully, she doesn't want to disturb his adorable sleep! - put the collar on him.

"Ah.. So cute.."

Madoka is making sure to keep her voice hushed, but there's no way she can't speak out loud. It just looks that cute. She can't stop smiling.

"I wonder if you have a name..? You kind of seem like a stray, so maybe not, huh.." That's too sad though! No adorable kitty should go nameless! A hand reaches out to gently stroke the cat's head. "How about I give you a cute name, huh, kitty..? I'll call you Maru."

Ignis was up early as per his custom, and while it had been so damn tempting to just stay in bed together, there was someone else that needed his attention, well their attention really. So instead of waking up his mate, the advisor decided that he would bring him breakfast in bed afterwards.

However, the first order of business was making breakfast for a certain pink haired doll of a daughter and letting her know she didn't need to worry anymore, that things were fixed. And it took strict mental discipline to not keep staring at the ring of gold now permanently back on his left hand.

So once breakfast was started, green eyes detected a slightly disheveled beloved pink head of hair coming towards the kitchen. And Ignis could only smile.

( wei wuxian is hemming and hawwing how gift culture works here, but also: he's got a jealous brother. so this is handled simply:

Madoka finds a plush manatee with a crown and a tiny shirt with Aquafir's logo on it waiting outside her door the morning after they leave Aquafir, with her name on a folded piece of notebook paper, and a smiling face following wei wuxian's signature. )
