Hotaru was happy to see that he wasn't really cry over it. She let out a giggle and held her hand over her stomach. Hotaru may be a kunoichi, but she still had the mindset of a seven year old child. That couldn't really be helped though, since she hadn't been on missions where she needed to grow out of that mind set yet. She was still a genin so she would be getting missions that involved puling weeds and finding lost pets for the most part. "Huh? Something I did get? Hmm...." She looked up for a little while in thought. "A puppy! A little white puppy!"

Keno gazed at her blankly for a moment, his face frozen in time for a moment as he mulled over what she said. A puppy? He couldn't imagine why she wanted one, no less what she would do with it all by herself. Pets weren't something that you could just have, and though he was sure she already knew that, he wasn't so confident that she was aware of the extent to which she would have to care for a puppy. Not wanting to shoot her down so cold heartedly, his face softened and gazed gently at her as he rose to his feet to walk to the back for something to eat.

"I don't think a puppy would be a good idea right now. You already have a bunny, but puppies require a lot more attention and care. Since you're still in training, having a dog would not be a good idea. Maybe after you become a chunin, ne?" He hoped that was a fair compromised, for there weren't too many reasons he could think she would absolutely need a dog right now. After she matured a little, if she still wanted one, then why not? For now though he wasn't so sure.

Hotaru watched him then nodded. "Okay." She had come to terms with the fact that she couldn't get everything she wanted and there was no use in crying about such things. She jumped down from the stool and followed him. "Tao Tao. Is there coco here?" she asked. Even though she was part ice demon, hot coco on a cold day still felt good.

"Coco? There'd better be!" He seemed to be very serious all of a sudden about the presence of cocoa, as though Deity would be getting a piece of his mind otherwise. He rummaged about, looking through this cabinet and that, not knowing the set up of the bar that well. Finally he came across a box with a steaming hot mug of cocoa on the front panel.

"Here we go," he said in a sing-song voice, fetching a glass and a carton of milk from the refrigerator. He completely forgot about a spoon for mixing, but it wasn't terribly important if he couldn't find a microwave.

"You can come back and help if you want." The child might want more than just the cocoa and milk. Some people liked whip creme and other stuff. He was more picky about stuff like that and preferred it plain, but he didn't often drink hot cocoa anyway so it didn't much matter either.

"Yay!" Hotaru smiled and ran over to where he was then began to look for marsh mellows. It wasn't that hard to find them, luckily. She pulled out the bag of small marsh mellows then held them up to Keno. "Can I have some of these in it?" she asked.

"Well of course you may," he answered sweetly, taking the bag of marshmallows and placing it on the counter next to the microwave. As he set the microwave to about three minutes, he looked about for something else to do or fetch.

"Is there anything else you want in your cocoa?" Reaching for some graham crackers for himself, he placed them on the counter and turned his attention back to Hotaru.

"Umm.." Hotaru shook her head. "Nope! that's all. Thank you Tao Tao." She gave him a hug then tried to tickle him as revenge for earlier. She had forgotten if he was ticklish or not.

"You're welcome little one," he said playfully as he tried to resist laughing from her revenge. Fortunately for him, he had a longer reach than she did and holding her at bay was easy enough, but he didn't want to be completely mean either so pretended to be defeated until he heard a clear ding!

"Oh the milk is ready!" Lifting the child up so that she was somewhat sitting on his right forearm and leaning against his chest, he opened the microwave and removed the hot glass of milk as though it were lukewarm at best. Paying no attention to anything else, he headed back for the bar, the various things he had placed on the counter following him eerily as they bounced and wobbled in the air.

Returning to the bar, he placed the child on one stool and occupied one to the right, realizing as he sat down that he had forgotten to pour himself a glass of milk. Getting back up, he made his way for the fridge again as the cocoa and marshmallows placed themselves in front of Hotaru for her to do as she pleased.

Hotaru giggled a little bit while trying to tickle him, only stopping once she was sitting on his arm. She watched the items as they floated behind them and tilted her head a little. That was kind of cool. Once she was sitting down, she put her teddy bear in her lap and looked from her left, to her right. "Tao Tao, can I have a spoon?" she asked.
PostPosted: Sat Oct 20, 2007 11:11 am


That's what else he forgot. Not turning around to show that he felt a bit silly, he opened a drawer to pull out a spoon and returned to the bar, placing the spoon next to Hotaru's glass. Smiling again, he opened the box of graham crackers and pulled out a sleeve. Tearing the plastic covering open, he took a square, split it in two, and dipped one half into his own glass of cool milk. Already he began to purr, though very low and not very noticeably.

"Thank you!" She poured the coco mix into her milk and then mixed it up with the spoon. She then put some marshmallows inside of the cup and started to sip the warm drink. "Yummy!"
PostPosted: Sat Oct 20, 2007 11:21 am


He simply smiled as he watched her, obviously ecstatic over her drink. Chewing slowly on his milk dipped graham cracker was enough for him. Although a glass of hot cocoa with marshmallows might taste good too, he was in no particular mood for it. Still, it was nice that children were so easy to please for he knew that later in life, or at least he was expecting, Hotaru would cease to be as happy with a simple glass of cocoa and marshmallows. Whatever the current fashions were would start to dawn on her and she wouldn't be able to help her self awareness in the presence of the trend-setters and the sheep that followed them to financial purgatory. Then again, growing up in a place like Konoha, she might grow out of that before she ever gets into it.

Taking another bite, he lost count of how many graham crackers he was eating, but at the rate he was dipping, that glass of milk was going to last much longer than they were. All he could say to this was an imitation of his young company.

"Yummy!"

Hotaru looked at Keno with her coco mustache then smiled at him. She took out a marshmallow from the bag then flicked it at him in a playful manner.

Before the marshmallow could hit him, it vanished. Not that it disappeared, but rather that Keno reacted so quickly, that he caught it in his mouth before anything else could happen. Chewing on it slowly, he realized, despite his smile, how much he wasn't in the mood for something so sticky and sweet. His mouth felt as though flooded with the taste of the gooey substance, which likely meant he wouldn't be able to taste any more graham crackers.

Not seeming at all offended though, he looked down and noticed that have the sleeve was empty by now anyway. Seemed like a good place to stop in the end so he simply twisted it back up and placed it in the box before downing his glass of milk. Somehow or another though, he had managed to get a marshmallow his own, and while he was drinking his milk, he casually flicked the thing at Hotaru, pretending as though he were completely unaware of what was going on.

The little sweet hit Hotaru on the nose. She blinked and caught the marshmallow as it fell from her nose. She just assumed that Keno had done that even though she hadn't seen it. She popped the marshmallow into her mouth then poked Keno's arm.
