Kitara just raised and brow and stuck her tongue out at her sister. "Right, whatever that is. Ground up flies?" She asked, ears twitching. "And... y'know. Worked, cleaned, came home and have been tending to Katrina. She starts school in a couple weeks!" Crimson eyes smiled down at her daughter.
"Okay." The mutt sat back as she waited for Sevy to be finished.

Rabid's head-wings perked up as the thought registered and the woman snapped her head up to stare at Katrina from behind black shades. "SCHOOL? What the f-, already?" Her voice was a high squeak of disbelief. It wasn't possible she was THAT old yet, was she? Where the hell did time go...?
Sevy made a very loud suckling sound as he squeezed the last drops out of the bottle before plucking it from his own mouth and pushing it away. "Dun." He smiled, proud of himself before twisting around to reach up at his keeper. "Burpy?"

"Yah!" Katrina seemed excited at least. "Mommy says I'll go to school in Durem. And I get to learn how to dance!" Her tail wagged more, thumping against the area rug they sat on.
"Time flies, doesn't it?" The hellspawn gave a sad smile.

Rabid shut her mouth, looking from Katrina to Kitara with a mute expression. Time flew all right, and from the looks of it she wasn't liking it. "What kinda dancing?" She curiously asked for the purpose of edging away from the subject at hand. "You don't need school to teach you, your Auntie Rabid will teach you how to dance." She gave wry and fangy grin, twitching an eyebrow to her sibling at the same time as she lifting the chubby baby to her shoulder and patted his back rhythmically.
It wasn't long before Sevy let out a couple of loud burps, wriggling his toes in glee as he was set down on to the rug. "CheeeeNAAAAH!" He began calling out immediately, eager to play with his cousin.

"I like all the songs, mostly." The pup didn't know what different 'types' of dancing there were yet, but she enjoyed her DDR machine for the time being. "You know how to dance, auntie?" She inquired while tickling her 'cousin's' tummy with her own blunt, black claws.
Kitara fell silent, knowing all too well how her sibling felt. Children didn't stay children long enough...

"Your Auntie loves to dance." Rabid grinned, playing with her neice's floppy ears. She tried to ignore the look of pain on her sister's face. Even if the expression was so well hidden beneath her pale, stoic complexion it was as clear as day to the woman who knew her best.
Sevy curled his toes as he giggled, rolling back and forth on his bum as he was tickled. "Gaaah!" He squealed and tried to retaliate, rolling onto his knees and clinging to Katrina's skirt for leverage to climb on.

"Really?" Katrina asked, though let out a small cry of alarm as the chubby baby began climbing on her. "Ah!" With a bit of effort, she manuvered him around to sit him on her lap. Then removing her ushanka, she set it on his much smaller head with a grin. "You play DDR, auntie?"

Rabid snickered, shrugging her shoulders as she watched Sevy play with little alarm. "A little. Your mum's better than me, I think though I bet we'll beat her some day!"
Before the baby could react to being placed in a sitting position again, everything went dark as something covered his head. The hat fell down a little past his nose and the green boy slowly felt the material, trying to figure out the situation. He was distracted and quiet for now.

The catgirl laughed. "They need to make a harder version of it for me." When speed, balance, and accuracy were the top things you excelled in for the better part of 2,000 years a little game like DDR wasn't much of a challenge. It was fun though.
"I didn't know you played DDR and danced, mommy." The child said as she looked over at her mother, allowing the baby in her lap to be occupied by her hat for now.
"Heh... yeah. I haven't done it in awhile and at least not with the one I bought you. Didn't want to take it up from you or anything." Kitara smiled.

Sevy finally managed to yank the hat off his head, only to stare at it intently before beginning to gum the side. Oblivious to the fact that he wasn't supposed to be dirtying it, he continued his slobbering duty until a rather long yawn interrupted him.
"Yea yea." Rabid grumbled, rolling her eyes though it was probably hard to see that she did so. "I can still kick anyone's a** in first-person shooters." The demoness snickered to herself before realizing the yawn. "Uh oh, looks like someone's ready for bed." She gave a lopsided smirk to the green baby who promptly shook his head no.

"Blech, guns." The necromancer stuck her tongue out at Rabid before her ears perked at the yawn. "Awww, sleepy baby." She smiled before standing and grabbing the duffle bags. "I guess I'll go lug these into Sevy's new room then."
"Hey!" Katrina gently pulled the hat away from the green baby. "Your not supposed to get it dirty..." Her ears drooped and she wiped at the drool on it with her shirt. Cleanliness be danmed... unless it was her ushanka. The last thing she wanted was Lidiya to yell at her.

"Thanks!" Rabid called to Kitara as she began to get up, flattening the wrinkles in her clothes before reaching down to scoop up the baby. "OOoof!" She groaned mockingly, insinuating that the kid weighed a ton. "Say nighty night to your cousin!"
Sevy made a waving gesture with his chubby hand once he was slung over Rabid's shoulder. "Ni ni, Cheena." He gurgled and lay his head down on his mother's shoulder tiredly.
"Goodnight Katrina," She stopped to smile down at the pup before heading upstairs. "Sorry about the hat sweetie, blame it on me if anyone asks, ok?" The demoness then made her way upstairs with Sevy. She must've been pretending to drop him, because after every few steps the baby could be heard bursting into a fit of giggles.

A Home in BartonRabid Jigglypuff Dim light filtered through the open windows of the house, the tv now a low buzz compared to the racket it was previously causing. The mess however, was still quite prominant. Katrina sighed, lounging on a stack of pillows amongst the cluttered floor in pjs and slippers. "Can I watch Teen Titans nooow?" The pup girl reached her paw into a chip bowl that was sitting nearby."Quiet down front." Rabid grumbled but snickered, nudging Kat's fuzzy hat with her toe. "No more kid shows, Auntie needs to see if she's won money today." The demoness gave a toothy grin and flipped to the daily horseraces. Baby Sevy, being the happy baby he was, laid contently in a pile of laundry bunched onto the couch into a makeshift crib next to his mother. "HOOO-THEE" He exclaimed when the channel was changed to the sight of the galloping equines. The flytrap child clapped his palms though Katrina wasn't as adament at 'learning' about the sport right about now.Gale walked quietly into the room, staring around at the mess that was the living room. "I'm looking for the tornado that went through here... do you know where it is Sevy?" The baby gurgled and laughed, obviously missing the point of the question."Food's in the kitchen. smartbutt." Rabid laughed the retort, the point of his joke going over her head. "Eat up before your mum comes home and calls me a bad keeper." Kitara Kata It was slightly passed dusk when the two vampires and Kitara made their way inside. Though when she tried to open the door, it slid a little before getting caught on stray clothing. "The hell...?" Shoving it open, she stepped inside and looked around with a sigh. "How... wonderful. At least tell me the children didn't starve." She sent a grimace in her siblings direction."Mommy!" Katrina immediantly perked up and slide out of the pillows she sat around to scamper up to her. She was relived that her mother haden't been gone for days like she sometimes was... not that she hated her auntie. Things just seemed more... organized with her around?
The pup made her way over to the young looking girl and was promptly lifted into the air."You behave for auntie?""Yah!""Good girl. Sorry I had to leave again." The demoness hugged her close before looking back to Rabid. "Did they both get dinner? Where's Gale?" She set Katrina back on the ground once she was standing behind her sister, wiggling a clawed finger at Sevy with a careing smile."In here." Came Gale's voice from the kitchen, the sounds of cabinets opening and closing accompanying it. Tokarev Lidiya tutted, shaking her head slowly as she gazed upon the mess - though Mark didn't seem to even notice it. Infact, he probably thought it was an improvement. Crimson eyes glanced down to the fluffy girl in Kitaras arms, coupled with a fanged grin. "You sure like that hat, don't you?" Lidiya said smiling, happy that Katrina had taken such a liking to her gift. Mark watched as Kaiser trotted off upstairs silently, then glanced to the Kitchen door as Gale's voice came from beyond it. Food. Food was a good idea. Food and sleep. "Do we have anything edible in here?" he asked as negotiated a route through the piles of... everything that littered the floor. Rabid Jigglypuff "You act like I'd force them to crawl in soot and eat mice." Came Rabid's flat reply though she didn't even look away from the television. Good to see you too. The demoness sent to her sibling, caustically. Without another word, she lifted an arm and extended a clawed index finger to point to the kitchen. Dinner was made, chicken and macaroni n' cheese. It was cold but she'd actually followed the instructions on the box this time, so it couldn't be THAT bad. Sevy let out an excited laugh as he watched the group return, happy as the house was now re-filled with many people. "Ba-baaaa!" The baby squealed and strained to roll over so he could watch Kaiser as he passed by. "Have a good trip?" The fuschia-haired woman decided to add for the sake of manners. Kitara Kata "Mmmhmm!" Katrina nodded up to the vampiress as she straightened her ushanka on her head. It was still a little big, but she would undoubtedly grow into it eventually."There should be. I went groccery shopping not too long ago." Kitara said as she watched the other vampire navigate about towards the kitchen. "Or do I need to go again?" She looked back at Rabid.
Glad to be home, actually. And no, it was horrible. I never wanna go back there unless I have to for souls. The hellspawn replied telepathically and sent her the mental "tape" of all that happened. Every detail from her eyes... she kept nothing from her sister. Though of course, all this happened in a matter of seconds and was inaudible to Lidiya, Mark, or anyone else even if they were telepathic.
"Go on in the kitchen and get yourself some chicken and mac." Kitara said with a smile as she patted her daughter on the head."Okay!" The child wagged her tail and followed Mark through his path.The cat had already helped himself to a piece of chicken and some chips... he didn't really like macarooni and cheese that much. But whatever, he didn't complain.Kasinda was still upstairs, waiting for Kaiser's return. Thankfully, she could communicate directly with the chaos demon and had gotten her dinner a little while ago. Now she just hung out in the playroom, looking out the window idly. Tokarev The Vampiress said nothing - she didn't need any telepathy to know that Kitara verbal reply was lie. She knew she hated the place. Her attention turned to the funny-looking green infant that seemed to be fidgeting away. Stepping over towards him, she smiled down at him, though remained silent. In the Kitchen, Mark just looked at the Macaronni. That s**t was bad enough when it was made properly and HOT. But this was... He wasn't sure what it was. Or if he was hungry enough to want to ingest it. "F'ing Typical." he sighed, reluctantly poking at the cheesy goop.

Rabid Jigglypuff Rabid's expression didn't change when she received the 'rundown' of the day's events. She didn't care much for any of the parties involved, but her concern for her sibling made her pay attention to the details. "The kiddies were good." The demoness smiled lightly, reassuring that everything hadn't been as chaotic as the room looked like it had been. She was about to start up another conversation when hersensitive hearing distracted her. "Eat out of the garbage for all I care!" She suddenly yelled out in a venomous voice, hissing and quieting immediately. Sevy held his hands together, staring up amazedly at the woman who stood over him. "Ah!" He gurgled and pointed up to Lidiya with a fangy smile but jumped when his mother snapped in a loud voice. The baby looked disturbed for only a few seconds, looking carefree once again.Kitara Kata "Dun like mac 'n cheese, Mark?" Katrina inquired and she pulled herself up onto a chair and then grabbed one of the plates next to the food. Grabbing the spoon, she plopped some of the cold orange food onto her plate before grabbing a chicken leg. So what if it was cold? She'd eat anything as long as it tasted good! Cold, hot, ice, who cared?
Once she had gotten herself what she thought was enough, she plopped down into the chair she sat on and started to eat. The yell from her aunt made her wince a little due to her sensitive hearing, but didn't seem to bother her. If it wasn't directed at her, she didn't really mind it.The catgirl seemed to have grown used to Rabid's bouts, so she didn't even react. "That good. Nothing interesting happen then I suppose?" She said while removing her boots and placing them by the door, along with her stockings.
"What about the animals out back? Still need me to feed them?" The two had such an expanse of "pets", they had to build a seperate barn or boarding home for them. Though of course, not all of them lived there and they were always free to come inside.
It was rather large and nice-looking for a "barn", heated, cushioned and the like. It was positioned behind some of the trees outback of their small home. Tokarev "Not exactly." Mark said, glancing down at the pup as he begrudgingly dumped a gooey blob of the stuff into a bowl. Atleast it'd keep him alive... maybe. He made no reply to Rabid, merely rolling his eyes. How could someone who like fire so much be such a lousy cook? Oh well, he didn't really mind, but if it gave him something to whine about, then that was ok. Lidiya bent at the knees, lowering herself down to the plant-boy. "Hello little one." she cooed, extending a hand to pet his head. "You're a cutie aren't you?" She grinned, fangs showing. Rabid Jigglypuff Rabid cast a bitter glare towards the kitchen, paying no heed to Lidiya as she approached her "child". She new the vampiress wasn't stupid enoughto bring harm to something she cared about. At least she'd like to think that. "Nah." She mumbled a response to Kitara, leaning back in her seat on the couch. "Nothing exciting. Watched some kiddie shows, made sure I got my fill of the races." She made no hint to why the house was so messy or that she had any intention of cleaning it up any time soon. She shook her head simply to the question about the 'animals' out back, motioning lazily with an arm. "Fed 'em." Sevy reached up as Lidiya ruffled his 'hair', playing with her fingers and trying to stuff them into his mouth at the same time. He gurgled calmly, curling his chubby toes.Kitara Kata "Alright." Kitara said before looking around the house. Now what...? With an almost inaudible sigh, she started to clean up. Though it wasn't because of the mess, it was because she had a hard time trying to keep herself occupied. In all honesty, she was glad for the mess. It gave her something to do.
Though in the middle of picking up the toys and clothing, she paused. "Oh right, Katrina and Gale's first day of school is tomorrow. You wanted to walk them there with me, right nee-chan?" She didn't mention it to Lidiya, knowing she wouldn't be able to venture out with them due to the daylight. Tokarev "Wake me if the weather sucks." The Vampiress smiled, looking up at Kitara over her shoulder. She would have to invest in a large umbrella sometime. Maybe that would keep enough of the sun off her? She turned her attention back to the happily gurgling infant, who seemed to have taken great delight in sucking on her fingers now. Her fanged grin remained. "You like my fingers, huh?" she mused. They probably tasted of tar, courtesy of Kaiser. Though Rabid probably didn't know it, she was no longer the sadistic killer she had once been. A fanged grin might have looked threatening in some way, but it wasn't. It was just grin. Rabid Jigglypuff Sevy giggled and rocked from side to side, still holding firm on the vampiress' hand. "Num num num num" He murmured to himself, having quite the grip for something so young and feeble."Oh right." Rabid nodded, having honestly forgotten. She tried not to think about things like that. It reminded her of people's mortality, and how short life really was for most people. The demoness also enjoyed having the little ones around the house and though she didn't want to admit it, the thought of then growing up and leaving upset her greatly. "Yea sure." Was her simple response, not bothering to elaborate further. It was just school, right? Kitara Kata "If the weather sucks, we won't be walking." The necromancer said as she raised a brow at Lidiya before ressuming in her chores.
Kitara knew all too well her sister's woes... she shared them as well, if not ten-fold. It was largely the reason why she had so few friends. Aside from the fact she thought she wasn't worth anyone's time or effort.Gale finished his dinner and stood, putting his dishes in the sink. Yawning, he scratched his short, black hair and then went into the bathroom to shower before going to bed.The canine was just about finished as well, her small teeth gnawing on the chicken bone to try and get to the marrow inside. Tokarev "Oh well" Lidiya shrugged, looking mildly disappointed. She looked back at the boy with a smile, then leaned forward a little to kiss his forehead. "What's his name?" She chirped up at Rabid. She liked all things cute and cuddly. Mark had eaten his meal suprisingly quickly for someone who had been so opposed to the idea that such a substance was fit for human consumption. He stood in the Kitchen doorway now, glancing over at his Mistress and the odd-looking green kid. Rabid Jigglypuff Rabid chuffed a laugh and smirked to her sister, not willing to soak her pretty hair for the sake of a charming stroll to school. Like hell, we take the car or else. "Just make sure I'm awake." She nodded to Kitara then cast a smile to Katrina before motioning to the pup. "Don't gnaw too hard sweetie, chicken bones splinter easily." Directing her attention to the vampiress and her question, she plainly responded. "Sevy." Leaning over, she extended a finger and poked the baby's belly. "Sevy is a tuuuubby, Sevy eats too much buuuuggies!" "Sebee ebba buggies!" The infant raised his arms and laughed, the flytrap leaflets on his back fluttering.Kitara Kata "I will, don't worry." The reaper said with a smile as she continued to pick up toys and clothing before putting them in their rightful spots around the house."Okie!" Katrina said as she snapped the bone in two and then licked at the center.
Once she was content she put the chicken bones down and slid off the seat."Dishes in the sink, please." Kitara said from the living room."Oh." Backtracking, the mutt grabbed her plate and reached up to put it in the sink. Tokarev Lidiya smirked eyes cast over the green plant-child. It reminded her of the swamp thing. "He's cute" she grinned, tickling his chin with a drool-soaked finger. Mark stood silently, still leaning in the doorway as he glanced over his shoulder at Katrina. He yawned. "What time is it?" He asked, looking back to Kitara "I think I have... dimension lag." Rabid Jigglypuff "It's time for bed." The demoness gestured to the infant who promptly started to wiggle and let out a mock-cry. "Ohhh don't bother." She laughed and lifted the tubby child over her shoulder to take him upstairs. "Say goodniiiiight."

The soft tap-tap of high-heels on hard floor echoed through the somewhat quiet hallway of the laboratories. "That's lab 6." Came a tired voice from down the hall, the sound carrying far across the sterile surroundings. Rabid seemed to be returning with her 'specimen' from a nice walk through the greenhouse, her ward sitting happily perched in her arms.
"Whada." The baby gurgled and pointed to another dull random object tehy passed by, returning to his efforts of trying to yank off his mother's shades from her face soon afterwards.
"That's..." The fuschia-haired woman paused to try and reclaim her eyewear. "...." A shifty glance of uncertainty before she looked back at the child. Now he was just being difficult. She didn't see or hear anyone else around, not that she minded company. Maybe she could toss the baby at someone for an hour or two. Coffee break and all.
Sevy squealed happily, amused at the game he was playing. He flailed his arms with a fangy grin, a loud ruccus in the empty area.
"SHHHhhh...Geez."
