Journal Entry - May05/2006 - 6:46PM I forced him to do his ABCs today. "At least one sheet, then you can nap." I offered the worksheet to him, having taken the set from Kat a few days ago. He gave me this FROWN and snatched the first one, ABC, from me and looked at the paper with minimal intrigue.
"Mmh but Maaaaaa..."
And there he goes again. Whining. Mmhg, it drives me a bit crazy sometimes. But I just set down the rest of the papers and held up 2 packs of colouring utensils. Markers and pencil crayons. Roule's eyes light up for a split-second before taking the markers and sprawling stomach down on the carpet. Not hygenic. Not like he cares a bunch though.
And there was the "Ma" incident. I made the mistake of letting someone call me Natto (friend) a few weeks ago and he started to jab at random times and then start giggling. Wow, being giggled at by your 2-yr old. Demeaning, no? Anyways, I told him to stop it and he persisted until one day, he called me Ma (? in chinese. Typical.) and said he'd rather call me that than 'Natto'. Less syllables, less effort apparently.
Ok, he colours the alligator fuschia pink. I don't say anything. He barely knows who *I* am, why bother him more with a "alligators are green-ish, Roule". That would just earn me that dirty look.. where did he learn that from anyways?
Nn, forgot how disorganized I am these days. I photocopied 3 sheets afterwards, since he actually got as far as I and then stopped because he got bored, and slightly peeved with me when I said a fire had a yellow thing in it. His eyes narrowed a fraction and he scribbled a good deal of yellow (that turned into an orange mass) on the page and continued onto the next page. He started to colour the igloo orange before I remarked (oh yes, I don't learn. Sorry.) that igloos were white or blue, and he started to erase the paper. With markers. Hmmm, not good. Ruu stopped after a while when his paper was all flakes and there was a small hole on the other end.
Fed up, the weasel boy went somewhere, out of my sight line and it's been quiet for a while. It's nice. I'm crossing my fingers for that he napped by himself.
...
I should be worrying, shouldn't I?
Hmm, not sure what he's doing right now buuuu--
...Alright.
..he apparently unbored himself with banging the kitchen pots and pans against the floor. If those things dent, I swear, I'm going to choke out that dealer.. stainless steel my foot.
Here's a few pages before I leave (to get Roule away from the kitchen utensils that cost me $150. Greaaat.)

Journal Entry - June26/2006 - 10:26AM I forced him to do a journal entry! With alot of help from me. Of course.
...
When ego meets ego, things don't get along.
I learned that today.
Zen checked in, one of the few times he does, as he's a grouchy 19 year old and has moved out, and though I'm not even related to him, he's still .. family. He dragged Zeq along too but Zeq had taken a detour to a friend's house a few doors down.
He was kind of surprised to find Roule in the house with everything and frowned slightly, eyebrows raised.
AND THEN I KNEW IT.
He learnt it from the olive-haired businessman, and heaven knows how since they had never met today, but they FROWN IDENTICALLY.
I almost started laughing.
Keyword: almost.
Roule frowned back, and they were in this stupid match. My 2 year-old and my 19-year old. Oh what, what?!
I decided to ignore it for a bit before Zeq came, and the catboy was way too "AWW HE'S SO CUTE" with the weasel. I think Roulette bit him. Zeq looked rather pouty afterwards.
Umm, not good.
And then, the contest to see whose hair was longer and Zen won that even though Roule insisted that it wasn't his fault. Or something. I think that's what he said, his speech was a bit slurred.
Uh.
Okay, not going to pay attention to that. After they left (2 hours later, I believe), Roule started to go on about how the scary alligator (oh wow, that is the ONLY animal he can connect with the colour green) and the weird.. thing tagging along it (which I am going.. to.. presume.. is.. Zeq..) were 'relli mean and I don like dem', with that exact prounounciation and scowl.
I think he needs friends. He doesn't need to develop an anti-social streak, but gladly I don't think I have to worry about an overly-social streak. Like I need to through that again.
Playdate time.
ps. and more markered worksheets! I actually got him to do 3 of them since I told him I would invite my Z boys back if he didn't.
Blackmail? Naw.

Journal Entry - June28/2006 - 10:22 AM Roule finished the rest of his sheets, including the numbers! I'm going to display them here 'cause I'm soooo proud of him haha. He actually worked for an hour straight! He woke up yesterday morning and told me he wanted to finish them.
I think he's becoming more concentrated. It's good stuff.
"Esss..." Roulette hissed, testing out the new letter. His lower lip trembled slightly. "I don like dis letter..." He said, pausing for a few seconds.
Nev sighed. "Well, it's not in your name, so don't worry about it yet, keke mia vita?" She chuckled. He was such a kid sometimes.
"Esssss.. Teee... Yooo... Yoop?" Drawing out each letter out, he coloured in letters violently with his markers.
"No, up! Into the sky!"
Roule gave the girl a curious stare and went back to colouring the U red. There wasn't a colour for the action anyways, right?
'A fuschia snake.. interesting.' Thought Nev, chuckling on the inside. She wore an amused expression. 
"Vee.. Douboyoo.. Ex!"
Looking at the X, the weasel boy frowned slightly. It was so.. so.. weird looking.
"Maaa, what is tat?" He asked quickly, skimming through the markers to see what to colour it.
Nev turned from the TV. "Labtech X.. Oooh.. It seems like a mysterious person! What are you going to colour it?"
Roule pondered on it for a few seconds before pulling out a lime green marker. "Dis!"
The fostermom nodded in agreement, "Yes, that's the perfect colour."
"Why? Whyyy, ma? Why is dis letter why? It's so weird.. Uweh... WHY?" Roule was giggling. Giggling. The letter seemed so amusing to him. It was a word and a letter at the same time!
Nev smiled purusely before choosing to talk. "Huuh, that's a good question. We may never know."
"Maaaa, you know eveeting.. Tell me!! Why is Y a why?" His voice accentuated to a slight whine. His chin had been raised firmly. Stubborn little kiddie.
"No, I don't know everything. Maybe you know." She gave him a wink and continued to watch the TV.. Reruns of House were love.
The boy looked slightly disgruntled and scribble something over the Z. That letter wasn't cool either.
8888NEV-POV888888
I think he's learning how to colour in the lines as well! My boy's growing... Heehee.<3
"Eh! Ma I done.." Roule said, handing the girl a pack of markers and the final number sheet. She nodded in approval and looked over it. "You're betting much better, mia vita."
He flushed a slight pink and scowled, embarassed by the affection. "Nnmh.. I'll go hand it in to Kat tomorrow at school."
"Alright. Now as a reward for being so good, you get to pick our lunch!"
The weasel boy's eyes widened with excitement. "REALLY MA? Yaaayayay--" and with a squeal ran to the fridge to pick out his favourite stuff.

A child is expected to know certian things at certian ages. In order to obtain rights to their Dragon(egg), they must prove they can meet these requirements. The following sheet is for your child to fill out, with mild help from their guardian, then sent back to D-corp. (PM ot the mule) Also any changes, even minor such as haircuts, should be reported to the D-corp to be logged and filed.
Thankyou,
The Boss.

Extracting the piece from her mailbox, Nev looked it over and nodded curtly. She looked down at the weasel pulling on dirty set of denim. Smiling slightly, the girl offered the small card-shaped form and tapped him on the nose. "Fill out the form." She said quickly, before Roule could fit in his millions of why's. "Just do it alright? If you want that dragon." Winking, she went into the kitchen to find a pencil, with Roule sauntering after her. He was spewing gibberish and looked more excited than he had since, well, forever.
"Alright, this will do mia vita." Nev said briskly, setting a purple orchid crayon in front of the boy, who was eagerly sitting in front of the table, grinning like there was no tomorrow. Sighing, and giving another rueful smile, the mother watched as her kid scratched over the card.
"Ma.." He started, sheepish, "wat's a "BE..STUH.. FRE..ND?" The weasel asked, reading off the card. He knew everything else, but the last part confused him. Best? The boy had only heard his ma use it once.. the word had never been clarified.
"Um.. it means the most good thing.. you best friend is someone you'd want to be around with and uh.. share good times?"
Nodding, Roule chicken-scratched his answer. Nev looked over. ..Good enough answer? She did wear a slight pout that he didn't put 'Ma', but then again.. he had good enough reason to. Chuckling to herself, she took the card in her hand, giving Roule a quirking brow. "You done?" He only nodded in reply, stars in his eyes.
"Alright, I gotta get this back to D-corp.. Pile up in the car, I suppose."

Journal Entry - July28/2006 - 5:07 PM (Yes, I didn't make a journal entry for this.. sorry, this is 2 weeks late. ;__; Just pretend it's July28th. /shot)Roule has definitely been growing. Weird thing is, I haven't really noticed until today when he actually talked to me with understandable grammar. He should be what, 5 now? And his clothes are definitely getting smaller too. The blue shirt with a paw print I bought for him only a month ago doesn't really fit anymore. Weird.
Anyways, I got a confirmation letter today replying that Roule was entitled for a dragon egg, and was going to be given an appointment time for him to see the egg. I really have no clue if I should tell him. If I do, he'll --I swear-- COMBUST. That kid worships everyone who has a dragon or whoever's getting one, and I think it might be too much for him. Then again, there's the other side of the argument.. Why keep it from him? That'd be equally cruel.
He was having some milk, I think, when I came into the family room. I don't permit him to digest anything half an hour before dinner, 'cause then he just wouldn't be hungry. The weasel was watching "Fairly Odd Parents" on YTV and simply looked up at me with a milk moustache. I took the cup, just to be safe. He pouted and started to say something that started with "I'm allo-" but I interrupted. The boy settled back down and crossed his arms, knowing if I wanted him to shutup, it's probably pretty important.
"Alright," I began, not really sure how to start. "Well, I got a letter from D-corp today..." Hehe, I felt his attention instantly shift. "And.. they say you're getting a dragon! And you have to visit it soon."
Roule looked paralyzed for a few seconds before getting off the couch and staring at me with large eyes. Darn, that kid is cute!
"W-w-what, WHAT WHAT YES WAIT WHAT YEEESSS---" The boy started, gleefully running around. Man, mia vita really needs to get a haircut. Chuckling softly, I just watched him run around the house a few times before he got back to me, panting and out of breath. "Ne ne when do I go??? Maaaa, when do I go? I wanna see it!! Please!!!" Pleading, begging. Uuuh, yes, this was the reason I hesitated. Oh well. My fault, right?
"Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?" He squealed, waving his small hand in front of my face. My head snapped downwards and I think I pulled off a good exasperated sigh. "Soon, alright? You're down for an appointment, so all we have to do is go to D-corp and see, alright? But.. we're not going now." That stopped Roulette in his tracks. He immediately depressed, and I was surprised on how quickly his moods changed. (It's almost scary!)
"You have.. to finish your journal for Nara, okay? Guess we'll be seeing Nara soon anyways, 'cause Nara's probably due for an egg too."
The boy grinned and ran up to his room. I followed slowly, regretting my decision with each step up the staircase, with a small smile on my face. Oh well, how much damage could he do?
