Teagan grinned, sensing some Godzilla like feat to come. "Alright little guy, I'll build a castle," he offered, picking up the pieces that were being flung toward him. Ever since he was a kid he had been sort of ADHD, and having to think about where to position a piece to make it balance stressed his mind.

Nahuel had finally gotten enough blocks out of the box that he could move it, and dragged the whole set over to Teagan and sat down next to the older boy. He could already see a castle forming, but he wanted it as big as possible before he knocked it over.
"Square!" he announced, placing a cube onto the structure. "Triangle! Rrrrrr- rehh- rect--"
He stared at the block in his hand with feline fury.
"Rectangle!" he pronounced finally, and placed it on the castle. It was beginning to wobble with the combined lack of balance from both builders.

Teagan attempted to steady the creation, but managed only to knock a few pieces off. "Whoops," he said quickly, snatching them back up. Hm, the way it was going one side seemed to be the more sturdy, and the other laden with random corners. Thinking he picked up three triangles and fit them together into a little base, nodding to Nahuel. "Maybe we could try it like this," he offered, "It'd be more steady."

"'Kay," said Nahuel happily, handing Teagan another block. It wouldn't do to have the tower fall before he could smash it. The way the older boy was building, making it steady, seemed to work, because it had stopped wobbling for the most part.
Nahuel got to his feet and stared at the tower that was as tall as he was.
"Smash?" he questioned, raising a hand into the air. He hoped it was time for that!

"Sure, just hold on for two seconds," he offered, hopping lightly to his feet. He hurried over to the kitchen before Nahuel chose to go on without him, snatching up a wooden spoon and two plastic bowls. He popped a bowl onto Nahuel's head, and then his own. With a grin he offered the toddler the spoon, saying playfully, "Have to have a weapon to protect yourself from the people that live there."

"Smash!" confirmed Nahuel, going at the tower with a savage roar. In a matter of three seconds it was reduced to rubble. The toddler surveyed his handiwork, tail swishing madly all the while, and giggled a bit.
"Again?" he suggested, picking up a brick and laying it flat. He could go on building and destroying cities all day if it came to it.

"Alright," Teagan laughed, "But let's make it a colloseum this time, so we can wrestle in it." With that he started to outline the circular base, trying to remember the stuff he had learned in history. He would let the kid beat him for sure, his mother would probably flip if the kid was bruised up. Noticeably at least, fur had its benefits.

"Fight?" asked Nahuel, eyes lighting up. Mom didn't let him do that, either! Teagan was the absolute best for ever and ever and ever. After watching what he was doing for a bit and figuring the basics of it out, he started handing the lemur boy bricks.
"Col-lo-seee-em?" he asked. He'd heard that word before - it was in one of the books mom read him!
"Gotsa book," he explained, pointing to the shelf. "'bout ruins." He liked ruins - they were cool and looked like they'd be fun to climb. Mom worked on ruins, and she'd promised she'd take him to see some soon.

"Uh huh," he said enthusiastically, "It's where the Romans used to fight with lions and stuff." He arranged a few little blocks in a makeshift arch, using it as an entrance for finger people. "There were gladiators and stuff," he explained, "And they fought each other to the death. It was really cool."

"Ta death?" asked Nahuel, his gold eyes going wide. He didn't wanna have to fight Teagan to death! He liked Teagan too much, and he was so sure he'd lose! "Don't wanna!" he exclaimed, knocking over part of a wall of the colosseum with his tail. He didn't like this game anymore.

Teagan blinked, attempting to salvage the side of the wall. It took him a moment to figure out what had upset Nahuel, but when he did he cracked up. "No no no," he said quickly, "We're not going to kill each other, it's just they used to. Besides, I wouldn't hurt you, you're too much fun."

"Ohhhhh," said Nahuel, relief flooding his feline nerves. He relaxed a bit. "Jus' play-fight?" he asked in confirmation. That was better!
He turned around and realized he'd knocked a bit of the wall over. "Broked it," he frowned, picking up the brick. "Sorry," he added, just like Mom had been trying to make him do.

"No worries, we can fix it," Teagan assured him, putting the blocks back in place. Soon the wall was as good as new. The teenager set his hands on his hips, grinning contently, "Ready? Or do you want to get some more spoons to sword fight?"

"READY!" shouted Nahuel, whose ADHD-addled brain had totally missed the sword fight proposition. He crouched and growled a silly little toddler growl, tail swishing aggressively.
"Imma lion!" he giggled, taking a step forward. "Rawr!"

Teagan pounced with a light push off, catching the toddler under the arms so that when they rolled over only Teagan hit the ground. After that he fell limp, grinning like a fool. "Let's see what you've got little man."
