THE BABY PARTY

[afineknight]

WHO: everyone!!
WHERE: The Rec Room
WHEN: Day 33, around lunchtime

[ Since it is a Daffodil rite, the Daffodils (at least, the ones that are not children who have no idea what they're doing and therefore aren't Tart, the best baby shepherd ever) have set up a little party in the rec room for all the kids and their poor beleaguered adults!

They've set up snacks and pulled out a few games as well as some pillows from the library for naptime and books — including picture books — nearby before putting the word out to others to stop by the rec room around lunchtime. And hey, if they have anything they can bring along, all the better! ]

[turning her head

looking at who it is

and turning her head back into the pillow again while BRIGHT RED because she's so mortified]

[afineknight]

[ He sits down next to her and pats at her head lightly. ]

I deserved it.

[aididitmyway]

[muffled:]

I'm still sorry.

[afineknight]

All is forgiven.

[aididitmyway]

I was still a pretty obnoxious kid...

I shot Minuet with a water gun, too.

[afineknight]

Good. He probably deserved it.

[aididitmyway]

It's Minuet, he definitely did.

I'm not sorry about that, just your kick.

[afineknight]

Oye, that's water under the bridge now.

[aididitmyway]

[finally pushing herself up]

... Mm, okay. If you're sure. I promise I won't do it again.

[afineknight]

I am as sure as I can ever be! But yes, please do not do it again. It would hurt quite a bit more if you did it now.

[aididitmyway]

My legs are the strongest part of me thanks to dancing, sooooo.

Yeah, it definitely would.

[afineknight]

And my shins have taken quite a beating. They would not survive.

[aididitmyway]

What, did some other kids get you too? It can't have been just me.

[afineknight]

Oh, no, I was referring more to how active I had been before coming here.

[aididitmyway]

You're just making me feel bad because I kicked a struggling old man like you.

[afineknight]

Okay, yes, I was kicked by an army of children.

[aididitmyway]

There must be something really kickable about you. Maybe you should look into that.

[afineknight]

Do you think it's my face?

[aididitmyway]

Maybe.

It's almost like you have "please kick me!" drawn all over your forehead.

[afineknight]

[ He clutches his heart. ]

Ah, señorita! You wound me!

[aididitmyway]

I said it with all of the fondness in my heart.

[afineknight]

[ He collapses on a nearby pile of pillows. ]

[aididitmyway]

[throws a pillow at him]

Don't be overdramatic!

[afineknight]

[ He laughs, even as the pillow smacks him. ]

I have been cut to my very core!
