"Ve? Fwatewo?" [Fratello?] Lovino looked up with watery eyes at his baby brother and their grandfather.
"Fewi…dun yeave," [Feli...don't leave] Lovino whimpered. Feliciano hugged his big brother tightly. "Grandpa Wome, pwease take me too!" [Grandpa Rome, please take me too!] Lovino cried, holding up his arms. Rome hugged the older Italian in apology.
"I'm sorry, Lovino. I can only take one of you, and Feliciano wanted to learn how to paint, so I'm taking him. I'm sorry," Rome apologized. Lovino sniffled.
"Damn it, no! Stay hewre, Fwatewo!" [stay here, Fratello!] Lovino shouted. Feliciano frowned.
"Ve! Dun wowy, Yovino, I be back fowr you!" [Don't worry, Lovino, I'll be back for you!] Feliciano told him with a bright smile.
"Pwomise?" [Promise?] Lovino whispered. Feliciano kissed his cheek.
"Pwomise, Yovi, ve~!" [Promise, Lovi!] He chirped. Lovino wiped at his tears.
"Sweawr on da etewrnaw damnation of you souwl to Pwuto! Sweawr on da Wivewr Stix!" [swear on the eternal damnation of your soul to Pluto! Swear on the River Stix!] Lovino urged. Feliciano put a hand over his heart, putting on a serious face.
"Ve ve! I sweawr on da Wivewr Stix dat I wiw come back fowr Fwatewo!" [I swear on the River Stix that I will come back for Fratello!] He confirmed. Lovino smiled brightly and kissed his younger brother's cheek.
"Come back soon, Fwatewo!" He called, waving his small arm frantically. Feliciano blew kisses until they couldn't see each other anymore.
Lovino didn't know that the gods couldn't understand baby swears, nor did they count if the gods could.
poor Chibimano! Pluto is the Roman god of the Underworld. The River Stix (this is Greek so I don't know about the Roman mythology except the names of the gods) is the river souls travel to the Underworld. Swearing upon it is the most binding promise you could ever do. but the gods can't understand baby talk! =(
