Shaxda liked to think he was smart. He liked to think that he made good decisions, good educated ones. But he had recently made one, one that he near instantly was going to regret.

Babysitting a 'crippled' child was that mistake. The kid's name was Fore, and even though it lacked a whole leg, it was still hyper. It clung on to his arm and refused to let go, and was constantly screaming at a frequency he was sure was meant for just the dogs to hear.

"Remember before when you told me that I needed a good job?" Shaxda questioned as he pushed the door open. He already guessed that Gala was home, as it was the weekend. "I did."

Fore ended up kicking the door the rest of the way open with it's good foot, leaning on it's crutch to do such. "YOUR HOUSE IS A BIG!" The child screamed, eyes wide. It was basically a type of situation where the kid was far too obsessed with it's halloween costume, the child having plastic horns with the right one being broke, a vibrant blue shoe, and a tail strapped around it's waist, and not to mention two home made cardboard wings.

"This. This is the result."

"if i come around that corner and there's a child, i get to turn your toes to rocks." the dark skinned male warned, his mess of dark green hair floppy over his eyes like an average emo kid.

"so who might this be?"

Shaxda had at first been worried, very worried indeed. He liked for his toes to not be stone, he liked them to be flesh. He ended up rubbing the back of his head in a slightly sheepish manner. The human had opened his mouth to speak, but it seemed that the kid had different idea. "Your hair is long, like Ma'aru's." It commented, before then giving itself a slight shake, adjusting it's hold on it's crutch. "An' I'm Fore. The best!" It thought very high of itself, giving a tiny bounce after a few more seconds. It also only had one eye, how absolutely thrilling was the odd kid to look at.

"How about we just...forget the turning feet to rock thing." Shaxda threw in, a worry-like tint taking to his words.

"well kid, we need to set a few rules, ok? you pick up after yourself. you do what we say, and if you don't, you get a very long time out. you need to keep your voice down, because we have two neighbours that work night shift and they sleep in the day time, ok?" he said, moving to pick the child up and look him in the eyes. he smiled slightly. he really was sort of like shadow- but this kid didn't seem like he was as much work.

Shaxda flinched at the hit, and the sheepish rubbing turned more into one of trying to soothe the pain. Grumbling under his breath, he marched off to the kitchen, probably to go get one ice cube.

Fore, meanwhile, perked as it was picked up, still holding tight to it's crutch. While Fore could be hyper, if there was one thing that it knew to do well, it was listen to what was told to it. It's single eyes was staring, before it smiled and nodded. "I got it, no clue what a time out is, but got it." It either had superbly good parents, or they were too loose for the child to not even know what a time out was.

he blinked. "it's like a punishment for being bad. you go to the corner and face the wall. you won't be allowed to talk, you just stand there for a while until i tell you you can leave the corner." he explained, carrying the child on his waist and setting him on the couch. "i have a few of my sons old toys if you want to play with them."

The small child slightly shifted, scratching at where it's plastic horns were connected to a band that stuck in it's hair, but as it was carried it adjusted it's crutch to not be dragging on the floor. "But I've never been bad!" It insisted, almost in a whine like tone. It had never been told not to do something, unless it was with Toy, and at the offer of the playthings it gave a sharp, happy squeal, it's one eye going wide. "I wanna play with the toys! I wanna play with the toys! Please, please! Toy says please is good word, so I say please and play with other toys!"

[dannychan]

he smiled slightly. "i'll let you play with them if you pick them up when your done." he offered.

Fore rubbed one of it's shoulder's with a hand, it's right one to be exact, which had a glove for red claws. It's halloween costume apparently had lots of effort put into it. "Pick up..? But Tetzu does that for me." It was true, the younger of it's two fathers always picked up it's toys or anything it spilled, and thus it had no idea as to what it meant.

he hummed. "well here, you pick up your own mess
