[ it's after his meet-up with his supervisor that he gets a call from robin to babysit alice. of course he says 'yes' -- he has nothing planned for the day & would never consciously turn down time with his niece. & like he told robin before, more free air should do him some good; who knows, if he's feeling better in mind, the body might follow. (he didn't really believe that since the damage from the accident has been said to be absolute, but a little bit of feigned hope wasn't too heavy to carry around.)

that's the context to their current scenario: at the park with alice, doing whatever she wants until it's time for lunch & ice cream. time with uncle nick is the time to get spoiled, so he doesn't worry too much about feeding her nutritional things; he's pretty sure his mom sis has that covered anyway. ]

[ picks up the said book & opens it across his lap again, lounging on the couch. ]

That's no hardship. [ short pause. ] Have fun at school.

[ lets out a brief laugh. ]

I will. [ there's a pause on his end as well, but only so he can lean down and plant a kiss on the top of nick's head. winks at him, speaking while he moves towards the door. ] A parting gift, from me to you.

[ can't help but chuckle softly in response, waving him off. ]

Why thank you. Now shoo. Let me know when you're in town next.

[ turns around to face nick again after he opens the door, doing a little dance as he backs out into the hall. in a sing-song voice: ]

I will, frieeend.

[ & then he closes the door, leaving him alone with his book. ]
