[ It's so effective. Robby has zero idea - okay, maybe a little bit more than zero, if he's using it here on purpose - of just how much power he's got over this man. It's not even like Daniel was that insistent on making such a big deal over these cookies and the potential of Robby burning his hands on them, but the moment he hears that?
He freezes. Not even in a bad way, more a way that makes Daniel look kind of stunned. Stunned enough that Robby can easily escape from the kitchen with that cookie while Daniel is way too busy staring. Processing.
D-Did Robby just call him dad? Voluntarily? Out of nowhere?
Daniel's soul will be right back, thanks, he's way too busy having an internal crisis about this of the best kind. He doesn't even realise that he's smiling down at his slightly-burnt cookies.
Dad.
Does he expect to hear this regularly, especially in contexts where Robby isn't just trying to be cheeky? Definitely not. But-- that doesn't mean he can't enjoy it when it does happen, right? ]
