It's been a while and my dog's birthday was today so here you go.


"T'Challa, come on babe wake up. T'Challaaaaaaa." The King of Wakanda had been asleep moments ago, but it seemed that his lover wasn't going to allow him to sleep in on his lazy Sunday morning. Gentle smacking away the finger that kept poking at his ribs he rolled over to look at his lover.

"Yes Anthony?" He could see that the genius had already got a hold of some coffee, the way his eyes and smile lit up the room, his body looking as if it could be vibrating with how much he was holding back his excitement.

"You need to get up, we need you."

Not sure of what the smaller man was referring to, he gathered up the energy to lever his self onto his elbow so he could be sitting up just a little more and really take in Tony's appearance. His face was perfect, looking freshly shaved and his goatee was well groomed, he was wearing a navy long sleeve shirt that hugged him like a second skin. Clean jeans that were hugging his ass in the best way led down to a pair of all black high top sneakers. His eyes traveled back up his lover's body, stopping to appreciate the simple gold necklace with a 'T' charm dangling between his collarbone. He had been out shopping with Anthony one evening when they came across this jeweler place that had necklaces with different initials. Next thing he knew, Anthony was wearing a 'T' and he was placing one with an 'A' around his neck.

"I'm not sure what you are referring too."

"The photoshoot silly, remember? It's Megara's first birthday and I want to take lots of pictures. Normal and dress up, so hurry up and get dressed, there's food downstairs so you can snack in between pictures." Satisfied with his explanation, he quickly scampered off the bed and back downstairs.

"Ah yes, how could I forget."

-X-

When he got downstairs, dressed similarly to what his lover was wearing (but more black) he snatched up a bagel from the table before wondering over. Tony was wrapping a big purple ribbon around Megara, while the panther sat on her mini podium, tail flicking around behind her while she waited on her master.

"There, perfect. You look beautiful Megara, I'm so glad I went with the purple, it complements your eyes nicely." He was scratching behind her ears, getting loud rumbling purring from the panther who would throw in a lick here and there. "Okay, let's take a few pictures. T'Challa honey, come stand behind Megara, I want a picture of my two babies for my office desk."

Smiling indulgently, he walked over and did as he was told while Tony fiddle with the camera. "Megara baby, look at daddy so I can see that pretty face." Tony snapped a few pictures of them together, making him smile, change positions, get closer, etc. Then they switched places, the first few pictures were calm, Tony and Megara side by side and they it seemed that Megara started to feel playful. Leaning on her hunches she wrapped her front paws around an unsuspecting Tony and liking a long strip up the side of his face. T'Challa was quick to capture the image, Tony smiling and laughing at Megara's antics.

After that the shoot seemed to get sillier and sillier. They hooked up FRIDAY to the camera, setting up a few others for different angles and close up. They took a few group ones, a traditional family photo, parents in the back, child sitting up front. Then they just started messing around, T'Challa bent over hugging Tony who was wrapped around Megara like a sloth. Another with Megara sprawled along T'Challa's back while giving an open mouth grin to Tony who was laughing at them.

And then Tony brought out the props. Flowers, crazy hats, food, stuffed animals, and more seemed to be coming out of everywhere. Music was playing over the house speakers because Tony needed something to dance too. Of course him jumping around got Megara excited and Friday was able to capture the whole things like one of comic photo books. Tony dancing around, T'Challa attempting to clean up there mess, Megara crouched down preparing to pounce. Tony with his back to them, Megara in the air getting ready to tackle the unsuspecting T'Challa and then said man laid out on the ground, Megara sitting contently on his back while Tony was still facing the other direction. Finally one with T'Challa irritatingly drumming his fingers on the ground, head resting in the other hand, Tony standing over them, one hand holding his stomach, the other point at them as he laughs hysterically, Megara just beaming up at him.

This went on for most of the morning . . . . . . and well into the afternoon.
