Welcome to Gaia! ::

Muuyo nodded lightly and Baby was happy. She really did want to learn how to cook. Then she could help Muuyo out and have a reason to stay in the kitchen more. She liked the jack in the box. He was nice and even though he was quiet he always played with her. So, if Baby could help him out that would be great.

Everyone came flooding into the kitchen and Baby giggled. Jumping up on a stool she sat at the table with Nori on her lap. She swung her feet back and forth and watched as everyone got their food. It really did look great, but then again everything he cooked was always delicious. Baby had been really picky when she first animated, but he had slowly gotten her to try new things. Now she would eat anything he said she would like.

She was going to wait for everyone to get their food before asking for help, but she noticed Hallow and Eve standing off to the side. She hopped down and ran over tugging on the dark man's sleeve. "Hallow-nii! Will you help?" She asked.

As soon as people had gotten their food Muuyo was flooded with compliments and appreciation. Perhaps that was one of the reasons he enjoyed doing chores so much. Not only did it keep him busy, but he honestly felt useful. His mind wandered back to what Tick had said. It still bothered him. Was he not doing a good enough job?

Muuyo couldn't really understand why it bothered him so much. Maybe it was the way it was commanded? He knew that Baby would love to help him cook, and he was certain Trillian would love to learn. In fact most of the toys would have fun learning. Rag'Marie always offered to help if needed, but she was always so busy he didn't want to bother her. That was when it hit him. Tick wasn't upset at him, he just didn't want the jack-in-the-box to overdue it. It was like how Tick had hired an assistant manager for the store to help Rag'Marie.

Muuyo's grin became a little larger and he began laughing. He had been so childish. Getting all worked up over something so small. He couldn't help it. He just laughed out of relief. It was a thick warm sound.

After fixing up the ragdoll and working in the store for a bit. Tik went about his daily business. Which was mostly going out and running some deliveries, doing some house call fixes, and visiting a few of the old toys he'd sold to good homes. He left the store in the capable hands of the toys, knowing full well that they could handle it. Rag'Marie would kick anyone's a** who tried to mess with them.

That night when he was back home, he was tired as a tarantula who had just run a fourteen legged race. His hair was falling all over and had changed color once more. He didn't waste time in getting into his comfortable pajama pants and settling in in the family lounge. He turned on the tv and began channel surfing. Waiting for others to join him.

Baby was the first one to join him. The adorable little rabbit girl look positively tired. Her sleepy steps dragged like a member of the undead. Only backing up her appearance. To some she was probably very disturbing, but Tick always had a fondness for the small creature. He had from the moment he found the set of zombie bunnies. Who could turn them away?

He'd had to stitch her up and take gentle care of her for months. He knew she wasn't really a child, but the way things were; she was one of the closest things to a daughter he had. She was after all his "Baby". The memories made him smile as he let her slim figure snuggle up to him.

He smoothed her hair and rubbed one of her ears. She was so adorable. He was losing it in his mind. She had all the charms he couldn't fight. He didn't say anything to her right then, he just held her and enjoyed her presence. Sometimes he wished the other dolls were this friendly, but most of them weren't the snuggling type.

Muuyo spent most of the day in the kitchen or in his room. He took a nap somewhere in there. Or rather, he dozed off at his window. He had enjoyed the fresh air and it quickly lulled him into a thin veil of sleep. By the time Muuyo woke up; it was already time to work on dinner.

After dinner he cleaned the kitchen and checked up on the supplies. He made a grocery list and then continued on to his evening walk. Unlike the other toys, he had to have a chaperone and had to stay to back allies or unused trails. His appearance were quite the fright to the normal humans.

Today it had been Rag'Marie who went for a walk with him. He was grateful for her company. She was quiet and could pace herself to stay close to him. His sliding almost gliding footsteps were slow most of the time. Not to say he couldn't book it if he needed to. Sometimes he would walk with the young'uns and have to speed up to almost double. Rag'Marie on the other hand was perfectly fine slowing down. She often times listened to music or would play it for both of them when they stopped somewhere.

The dark abandoned park was a favorite spot for Muuyo. He liked to lay on the slide and stare at the sky. Having company with him made it more nostalgic in a way.

When they got back he wasn't surprised to find people in the lounge. They were obviously getting ready to settle down for a show or a movie. He was about to offer snacks when Even and Hallow brought in popcorn and chips. So he decided drinks would be needed. "What would you all like to drink?

○○○○♥○○○ As the assistant and night time manager of Tinker Toys, it was only natural for Ygdrassil to wake up in the late hours of the evening. Tick would be winding down and dealing with the living toys. So now it was their turn to wake up and get ready for work.

Unlike the owner, it wasn't hard for them to wake up. Ygdrassil was up before their alarm and dressed by the time it went off. Their room was on the second floor, same as the toys. By looking at them, you might think they were another of the enchanted play things. You'd never guess them to be a natural human being. The only one in the store. Unless you counted Tick. Which if you asked them, he was far from natural.

They made their way to the kitchen and noted the gathering in the lounge. Though they quietly snuck past it. They just wanted something to eat before taking over the counter from the rag doll. Who no doubt had been dealing with the customers all day. Ygdrassil didn't really approve of the merchandise running the store. "If only Tyler wasn't so lazy." They sighed to themselves and shook their head. They didn't like using his nickname and were probably the only ones to refer to him by his real name.

Ygdrassil decided to make himself some oatmeal and coffee. It was simple, but filling. Plus it wouldn't attract too much attention. Though he expected the jack'n the box to come in any second. Muuyo was always in the kitchen for one reason or another. At least he wasn't much of a nuisance. ○○○○♥○○○
