N-no, I am just a normal boy. My father...he is actually my foster father, but it still counts! The other man....he doesn't come around very much and whenever he does everyone gets upset. I don't like it when he visits.
[The mood of the household always becomes so tense when Diarmuid's birth father, Donn, visits. No one really likes him and considering how he acts, it should be no surprise no one wants him around. The fact that he calls himself a knight is an insult to true knights and to make matters worse, even though Aegnus had been willing to foster the man's own son, Diarmuid's birth father had refused to foster a boy in return.
Of course, Diarmuid isn't aware of all of this. He just knows that a cloud falls over the household whenever his birth father visits and even worse, his friend usually has to leave the household for a while for some reason. Diarmuid doesn't know why, but it makes him sad to have to be away from his best friend.]
My father's name is Aengus. He is a god of youth, poetry, and love. At least, that is what people say.
[Diarmuid giggles, rocking back and forth a bit on his heels.]
I don't really care about all that. He sings to me and tells me stories. That is what I love the most! Oh, and he calls animals sometimes too. Butterflies and swans. He can even turn into a swan! Isn't that neat?
