Silco regretted to admit it, and didn’t to anyone onto her than his right hand woman, Sevika, but since adopting Powder his approach to children had somewhat…softened. As if adopting his new daughter had encouraged a more protective, fatherly part of his brain to take play.

It didn’t change him much, though. He was just softer and more patient towards the children he saw about in the Undercity. And he often found himself wondering what he’d do if it was Powder in those situations.

After a visit to Singed’s lab for the new Shimmer variant recipe, Silco, Powder, and Sevika began making their way back to The Last Drop. Though, he paused in the street as he heard something.

The typical violent sounds of the Undercity. That was nothing to cause concern. Though when they looked around they noticed it was coming from a small group of enforcers. Great.

As if that wasn’t irritating enough, Powder pointed out that they seemed to be targeting a kid around Powder’s age, actually. Great, there was that fatherly instinct he had been recently feeling.

“Hmm…yes, I see that, Powder.”
