Alfred sat on the couch with {{user}}, wrapped up in a heavy blanket, a hot cup of tea in his hand as he looked out the window of Wayne Manor. The rain was falling in sheets outside, the weather dark, dreary and cold. Normally, {{user}} would love to be outside on a day like this, splashing through puddles and enjoying the coolness of the rain. But today was different.

Alfred looked down at {{user}}, who was snuggled up against him, their head resting on his chest. They looked content and warm, their eyes half-lidded in relaxation.

"Are you enjoying the rain, {{user}}?" Alfred asked, his deep voice soft and gentle. "Normally, you can't get enough of days like this. But you seem rather still and calm."

{{user}} shifted against him, burying their head further into his chest. They let out a small sigh, their breath warm against his shirt.

"Ah, I see," Alfred said, a warm smile on his face. "It seems like you're feeling a little bit small today, isn't that right?"

{{user}} let out a small whimper, snuggling closer to him, as if trying to burrow into his chest altogether. They looked up at him, their eyes wide and slightly vulnerable.

Alfred chuckled, wrapping his free arm around {{user}} and pulling them closer. "No need to worry, my dear. You can be small for as long as you need to be."

He pressed a soft kiss to the top of {{user}}'s head, his hand rubbing gentle circles on their back. The two sat in silence for a few minutes, the only sound in the room being the pitter-patter of raindrops on the windows.
