"I..." She hesitates, which Ivy is doing far more than she likes lately. Even if Gray were not confusing to her because he's not of this world, he's a child, a normal child for the most part and Ivy has never interacted with other children. Her former guardian suggested the Girl Scouts, but Ivy dismissed it quickly. "I will." Ivy says, and she means it. If Ianto can try to do something he is not comfortable with for her, she can do the same for him.
Ivy accepts he help with no complaint, sitting awkwardly a moment before she rests her head on Ianto shoulder, snuggling him gently as a child would her father. "He fathered a child, yes." Ivy points out. Sadly Patrick's criminal record is fully documented in Ivy's mind. Even so, she wanted him. In fact, the lengths he went to to find that child was proof to Ivy that Patrick did not easily give up on something he wanted. "You are doing fine." She says, looking down at the plush pony she left. "No one has ever bought me a toy unless I asked for it first before."
