yeats and I discussed this whole ridic storyline about Johnny Weir: Single Father. He ruthlessly tamps down on his romantic life to care for his daughter (whom we have called Lila), and is the best father ever! She needs a skating coach! Enter Stéphane Lambiel.
... so anyway, copy and pasted from an email I sent her once:
1. She cries really easily. One night, Stéphane goes back home with the both of them. Johnny makes dinner, and they watch Finding Nemo. Lila starts crying, and Stéphane sniffles along sympathetically. Johnny ferries tissues to them and laughs a little bit. Lila scowls and smacks Johnny's shoulder, until a sad scene starts up again and the waterworks do too.
2. She wants a dog. No, actually, she wants a pony. But apparently ponies aren't very feasible in New York City.
"I want a dog," she says, and Johnny replies absent-mindedly, "Honey, you're not ready for that commitment yet."
"When will I be ready?"
"When do you think?"
Lila thinks about it seriously and tries not to be overly optimistic. "Next week?"
"No," Johnny says. "Maybe when you're 18."
That's not an answer and Lila knows it.
3. "You had a pony when you were a kid," Lila says. She's seen the pictures.
"Yeah," Johnny says. "Then I had to give her up for skating. I'd rather you not have to make that decision."
"What did you call her?" Lila asks, even though she already knows.
"My Blue Shadow," johnny says.
"That's a stupid name," Lila says. "I'd call my pony Esmeralda. Can I have a pony?"
"A pony isn't a dog."
"Can I have a dog, then?"
"No."
4. "Why do you want a pony anyway?" Johnny asks. "You already have me."
Lila thinks he's probably kidding, because everyone knows that's not the same. What if he isn't? Okay, better not laugh. "That's different, Daddy."
"You have Stéphane, too," Johnny points out grudgingly. "And, um, Uncle Paris and Grandma and lots of other people."
"Ponies aren't the same as people."
5. Eventually Stéphane gets her a tortoise.

yeats: OMG A TORTOISE. WHAT DOES SHE NAME IT?
unlurkster: I HAVE NO IDEA YOU SHOULD SUGGEST SOMETHING.
yeats: my blue shadow. sometimes, johnny thinks his daughter is a bit of a bitch.
Ahahahaha oh god our brains. I NEVER USED TO HAVE A THING FOR KIDFIC (or domestic fic. Or cross-dressing. Or future fic. Or... /o\) but this fandom seems determined to prove me wrong.
