@bloatedcrayon and I have a happy au where Lee had all four kids and gets to spend their early years in Suna with Gaara, his loving husband. we spend a tremendous amount of time discussing what a tiny snuggle prince Araya is, and also how he was a big baby with an extreme appetite. sometimes his quest for lunch grew so strong that he saw his sister as getting in the way of his meal. here’s a story about that.

“Metal, what’s wrong?”
“Papa, Araya is a…,” Metal’s sweet almost-three-year-old voice started to answer.
Gaara waited patiently for his darling child to finish that wholesome thought.
“…fat monster.”
Gaara blinked at his oldest son and shook his head.
This has been an ongoing joke between us that Kankuro gets so stressed about Lee and Gaara having so many kids that it’s finally “Climb off Lee,”–It’s become a matter of national security that so many kids are running around
