The Fortieth Day

 [A few days ago, Shiki Misaki woke up to find not one baby in her room, but two.

Two.

Her child from last year was back, a year older and now able to do things like call her "Mommy", and she was so very happy to have Shigure there with her again. But now there was someone new as well - a girl child that Shiki had named "Eri" after one of her best friends from home.

The special thing about Eri was that she wasn't entirely human. She had Shiki's eyes and complexion - the real Shiki's eyes and complexion, too, not the ones that she wore here - but she also had longer, coarser, blacker hair than Shiki's, and a pair of small curly fry-looking troll horns on the top of her head.

This wasn't a problem for Shiki, not at all, no sir! Well, except that she was a 15 year old girl, and even she only had so much energy, and that much energy was not enough for dealing with two, very young children, one of whom wasn't even fully human.

She tried to keep it together and be a strong, capable mother all on her own, but finally she had to put out a call to the castle.]


I-Is anybody free to babysit? Like, at all? Just for a few hours, while I take a short nap...

...Particularly if you have experience dealing with troll children, or you are a troll yourself, I could really, seriously use your help right now.

Please?

((ooc: Open like an open thing! Shigure is all Shiki's, and Eri is Shiki and Aradia's... although, at first she will think that it's the child that she and Equius would have had, since he left and all. Have fun with her!))

0_0

[Yes it actually just transcribed her 0_0 face. It's good like that. But... oh god. It happened again. (Please don't look like Ted and Kanaya's baby please don't look like Ted and Kanaya's baby)

So yeah it takes her a second to actually reply, but she's regained some of her composure by the time she does.]

[Yeah so Aradia does hurry over. As is her custom, she's knocking on the door by the time Shiki says "horns," with grubface slung awkwardly under one arm.]

[TIME POWERS BB. But she looks down at the grub first, as if she'd forgotten it was there. (She hadn't, but shhh.)]

Oh. Yeah, this is mine and Sollux's grub that we got last year. He wasn't this fat back then, though. [Seriously, he's pretty fat. And orange, and squirmy, and toothy. She squeezes him lightly and he squeaks in protest.]

[Blinks...] Should I ... not be?

[Sets him gently down on the floor because .... that is better????? He starts undulating forwards, exploring.]
psych0p0mps: surprised look (♈ that really drives you insane)

[Aradia appears somewhat perplexed by this question!] He doesn't have a name.
