Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was probably the most ridiculous thing he'd done since coming back, but he just couldn't help himself. Roch had spent all morning getting this stupid joke set up, which included bathing and dying Cisco's hair with Kruel-Aid, digging out old clothes that didn't fit him anymore (but absolutely didn't fit Cisco yet) and doing a bit of ground work on a tiny little cafe.

Because this was totally his chance to prank Xiu, and he wasn't going to pass it up.

The shifty reaper, carrying a scareling and an armful of clothes, slipped around the corner of the cafe--Shifting Blossoms--and gently put the boil down in front of the door. He motioned Cisco to go through with a tiny gesture, then disappeared in a small poof of black.

Cisco stepped completely out of the jeans he was supposed to be "wearing" and walked into the cafe in only his deaddy's vest, buttoned so it hid his little diaper, falling well to his knees. "Shoe!" he said as he entered the cafe. "SHOOOE!"

Why? Because it was his new favorite word, thanks to Deaddy and a new song. That it was a lot like "Xiu" was only known by Roch. The evil punk.

"Shoe?" Cisco said, heading for the beckoning stranger simply because--well, she TOLD him to! And she didn't look scary at all, she looked pretty! "AWOO!" he said happily, holding out his arms to be picked up.

Cisco liked pretty ghouls!

From the roof of the building, peeking in through a window, Roch watched with an evil grin on his face.

"Gala meka topha," Cisco told the new stranger. "Awoooga!" he added, for emphasis. "Gaba gaba."

Clearly Roch had shrunk. Nobody else would be this cheerful in such a state.

"Ra!" Cisco said joyfully, because he knew his father's name--just not how to say it. But that sounded like-- "RAWR!" so, of course, being the little boil he was, he had to say that, too. And promptly burst into giggles as soon as it came out. "Rawr!"

He bounced on her hip and then promptly started reaching for her ears, because they were fluffy looking, and Cisco could not resist anything fluffy--including his Deaddy's hair, not that she would know that. "Gaba gaba tola mee!" he told her.
