"All toys huh? Well, you're easy to please, aren't you?" He could tell she was enjoying the dolls, and debated buying one for her. She thought it'd make her happy, so before they left, he'd be sure to have her pick something out.
"Well, I'm not really into dolls," he admitted, giving the red-head a shrug. "But I did live in a big dollhouse once. All of my friends lived there too. It was really fun." He paused, pointing to the dollhouses on the other side of the aisle. "Like that one," he said, pointing to one of the biggest. "I can't live there anymore now though. I'm too big!"
He wasn't sure if Ein heard him, but regardless, her attention turned to something she called 'kitty'. "What'cha got there Ein?" he asked, moving closer to her, seeing that the snakes in her hair were also enjoying whatever toy was in it's jaws.

He had lived in a doll house? That was her dream! Silver hadn't bought her a dollhouse yet, claiming that they were expensive and frivolous, a waste of money when Ein could wear pretty clothes and have pretty jewellry instead. And was this man with wierd things where music came out from, and the memories of living in a doll house! Why, he had the life she wanted, he did. She was jealous. And envious.
And she would have said so, if she knew what jealous and envious meant.
"Kitty." she said, turning to show it to Kappa. She held it in the grip of a proud new mother, eager to show off their new kid. Or something just as proud, because she was.
Proud, that was.

Smiling down at Ein, Kappa squatted down to get to her level and he gave the 'kitty' a pat on the head. "Do you like the kitty?" he asked her, momentarily giving the tag a flip so that he could see how much this stuffed animal would set him back.
Just a thousand gold. Easy enough. Kappa had been working at the club, and he had gotten paid only a few days earlier. Money wasn't really tight, and he had no one else to spend it on except for himself. He figured that buying Ein a toy wouldn't break the bank.
"How about I get it for you?" he asked, holding a hand out so that she could give it to him so he could pay for it. "You think Ananchel would be okay with that?"

Ein watched Kappa with big eyes that seemed to shine with adoration. Buy it, for her? She had never heard better words in her entire life! Letting out something that resembled a squeal of delight, she nodded her head.
"Kappa will?" she asked, entranced at the thought. Deciding that he was the second favorite person in the world, (Silver and Ananchel shared first together. There was no hope for that) she picked it up and handed it reverently to Kappa.
"Love Kappa." she said cheerfully. And it was true, kind of. She loved this man! And she was going to take these earphones home with her too.

Kappa was pleased as he looked into Ein's big, joy-filled eyes. He was doing something nice for her, and it was a good feeling. He didn't get to give gifts to people very often, and not to too many people. Ichigo was the only person he'd given gifts to, and though that always made him feel good, it was more of a requirement than anything. Women liked gifts. That was just the way it was. And girlfriends expected gifts. Kappa was always more than happy to oblige, as long as he could afford it.
Now that he thought about it, Ein was sorta like a woman--she was a girl at least. Close enough, he figured, looking down at the toddler.
He chuckled when she proclaimed her love for him. "Aww, thanks Ein! You're a sweet little girl," she said, taking the stuffed kitty from her before the snakes decided that it'd make for a tasty dinner. "Let's take this up to the font and we'll get it paid for okay? We've been here for awhile--I wonder if Ananchel is done shopping?"
Reaching out a hand so that she could grab it, he nodded. "Ready?" Walking up to the front counter, he plopped the plushie down, waiting to see what it would put him back.

Ein smiled. She liked people. They were usually nice to her, and those who didn't always had a reason not to be. And what this man was doing only reaffirmed that people were generally a nice group. Fantastic, really. Ein loved people. Strangers. And she adored the ones who bought her things, complimented her to did something just for her.
And really, this man had achieved all three. Taking his hand securely with her own and making sure that kitty wasn't harmed in any way, she nodded her head. They would go pay, and then she would have a pretty thing to show Ananchel! Wow, was she going to be proud of her, for having found such a nice man to hold onto.
"Kappa want doll too?" she asked, concerned as she looked around the store. Maybe he needed something to balance out the scales.

Kappa exchanged a few bills with the woman at the counter, letting Ein's hand go for only a second while he reached for his wallet. As soon as he had the change back into the leather billfold, he handed the kitty back down to her with a smile.
"Here you go. Now you've got to think of a name for your kitty." He gave her a nod and motioned toward the stuffed animal. "Think of anything yet?" Though Kappa was sure that Ein was much too young to understand everything he said, he noticed that she was remarkably bright for her age. As if she'd been around longer than she let on.
He chuckled at Ein when she suggested that he might want a doll too. "Nah, I don't need one...I was doll-sized after all, so I'm not a huge fan," he said with a smile. "Let's go meet up with Ananchel. I'll bet she's waiting for us."
He gave the girl's hand a squeeze and pushed open the door for her. Following her back outside, he noticed that evening was beginning to descend. "Almost dinnertime eh? I hope Ananchel got you some good food for dinner..."

Ananchel was indeed, waiting outside. She had weighed the thought of looking for them, but it had seemed safer to wait here, where she could see most of the stores. So when Kappa stepped out with a beaming Ein...
Well.
Ananchel smiled. Slowly. It was nice, having time alone. Maybe she should invest in this whole baby sitting idea. It sure seemed more interesting then it let on.
So she walked forewords, carrying few parcels (delivery was a gift sent by god, honest.) and even fewer notes, when she spotted the doll.
"Thank you, Kappa." she said, sincerely. "But there was no need to bribe her to stay quiet in your company."
Ein looked up, not understanding. What? But it didn't matter. She had her doll in one hand! "Kitty." she said. What else would you name Hello Kitty but Kitty?
Ananchel didn't understand, but it didn't matter.
((you can close it up? xD))

Kappa spotted Ananchel as soon as they walked outside, and he saw the smile on her face. She'd probably enjoyed her alone time. Kappa had enjoyed hanging out with Ein, but he also had the realization that having a kid 24/7 was probably a bit trying...He certainly wasn't ready to have kids just yet, but this little adventure had given him an idea of what it might be like. He'd never babysat before.
"You're welcome," he said with a grin. "Nah, I didn't need to bribe her. She was very good actually. I just saw her eyeing this plushie, so I thought I'd get it for her. And the snakes seem to like it too, so that's a bonus."
Turning to Ein, he knelt down. "Kitty is an excellent name. I hope you take good care of Kitty." He paused. "Here, I've got to get going--It's almost dinner time. I hate to break it to you, but I need those headphones and my iPod back." He reached out and removed the headphones from her neck, putting them around his own. Luckily, one of her hands was full of Kitty. He'd hoped she wouldn't throw a fit when he had to take his music-machine back.
As swiftly as he took the headphones, he snatched up the iPod and slid it back into his pocket. "Maybe if you're a good girl, I'll give you one of these one day. You've got to promise to be a good girl though."

Ein's eyes were shining as of he had promised to give her the world next week. She was a good girl, wasn't she? That's what Silver told her. So she nodded her head rapidly.
Ananchel laughed. A little, rueful noise that escaped her, and ducked her head to trap whatever it was that had planned to leave her mouth next. Instead, she nodded her head, grinning slightly.
"Thank you." she said, smirking. For entertaining the little girl. "I hope we see you again?"
He was a good babysitter. And next time? If she had to steal all of Silver's credit cards, she was going to get him to keep Ein. "We've got to get going as well. Are you hungry, Ein?"
Ein nodded, and waved at Kappa. See? She could be good! And so she waved, beaming. Wasn't she a good girl?
She'll count the days until she got his iPod.
