Raya's favourite things to do with his Dads.
Alphinaud:
Raya loves to listen to Alphinaud read. Alphinaud is the only one allowed to read Raya bedtime stories if he's home!
Also loves playing with the carbuncles. They know to be careful with the very breakable little prince.
Gardening. Raya isn't the most helpful in the world, given he's only 4, but he likes the act of digging and being in the mud! And Alphinaud teaches him about the plants as they 'work'
Estinien:
Trying new food! Estinien likes trying new things and is happy to share them with Raya (as long as they're not mind meltingly spicy). They have their own ranking system!
'Flying'. Now this, they can only do if Rihzu is busy, because if she catches them, Estiniens life would be forfeit and he KNOWS it. But Raya loves being held while Estinien jumps higher than the buildings in Ishgard, or up onto rooftops. And Estinien can't say no when Raya asks!
Buffing Estiniens armour. This started as a one off bit for Estinien where he pretended Raya was a cleaning cloth and used him to 'buff' his armour. Now it's a common occurrence, and Raya squeals with delight every time. Estinien also uses this time to teach Raya about dragoons.
Aymeric:
Going to parliament! With Aymeric being the one that has Raya alone a lot, while Rihzu, Estinien and Alphinaud go off saving the world/universe, Raya goes to work with Aymeric semi often. He loves doing it, getting to sit on Aymerics lap and 'do paperwork' (colour on bits of parchment)
Chocobo riding!!! This is one of Raya's favourite hobbies full stop, but he especially likes getting to go out with Aymeric because he gets to be tucked inside of his coat to stay warm.
Racing! Once he mastered self propulsion in his chair, and mastered how to grip his walker to move around, Raya often challenged Aymeric to a race from place to place. He loves that he wins so often against a grown-up!
Bonus all 3:
CUDDLES! The tiny boy is a cuddle bug and loves it best when his Mama and all of his Dads are home and they cuddle in the big bed with him!
