This sure is a thing

[kryptonsbaby]

Atta! [There's a little baby Kryptonian playing with a little red ball. He seems to be having fun.] Aboooooh.

[Hey there little guy, you shouldn't be out here all by yourself.

Here's Totoro to sit by you.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Kal kind of stares once he notices Totoro. He grabs the ball and pulls it closer to his chest because Totoro sure is big...]

[waitingforthecatbus]

[Totoro smiles and gently pats his head.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Aw, Kal likes that. He holds the ball out towards him.

Do you want to play?]

[waitingforthecatbus]

[Smile.

Totoro takes it and rolls it back.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Kal giggles and throws it up, a little harder this time. Not that that means much in baby strength, but...]

[tinyflower]

[ It's a baby! ]

[ Hesitates at first, but she moves closer to him. ]

[kryptonsbaby]

!!

[...Kal giggles and throws the red ball at her, then claps.]

[tinyflower]

...! [ The ball rolls to her feet. She picks it up and rolls it back to him. ]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Kal giggles and claps! Then sends the ball back to her.

Instant bff!]

[tinyflower]

[ She sits down across from him and rolls the ball back happily. ]

You're good at this!

[kryptonsbaby]

[Oh my, she talks better than he does. What do.]

Kal? [He says, touching his chest.]

[tinyflower]

[ She tilts her head and giggles. She pats her chest and does the same. ]

Rapunzel!

[resolvere]

[Uh-oh. Baby all by himself.

Though, ooh, that's a nice red ball.

Amaterasu simply moves to sit in front of him, paw pushing the ball back his way.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Oh you're kind of a big Krypto! Kal likes Krypto.

He tries to stand up and wobbles towards Amaterasu, tiny hands up.]

[resolvere]

[She doesn't know what a Krypto is, but she's a god, man. Treat her with all the respect you would, and worship and blaaa—

Oh gosh, those hands are so tiny and also he is very cute. The epitome of patience with innocents, she lets him do as he pleases as long as it does not hurt. If he wants to poke her nose or pull at her mouth or climb on top of her like a horse, it's all good in her book.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Kal doesn't know what a God is either, so they are even.

Don't worry Amateratsu, Kal just wants to hug you. He even pats her gently, because she's a good giant Krypto.] Oggy Oggy Oggy.

[resolvere]

[Oh, goodie. The sun god is very fond of hugs.

He's so small, though, she has to wonder where his parents are. She should probably find them to make sure he stays safe (and she gets praise).

She leans forward on her front paws, stretching out like a cat and yawning loudly, all her teeth showing. Curly tail wags slightly as the turning shield of flame and energy moves about her back. Finally, she gestures to her back.

Get on, kid.]

[crockers_girl]

[Awww, it's a baby! Jane moves closer to him, smiling.]

Hello there, little fella! Where's your parents?

[kryptonsbaby]

[Oh. Where are his parents indeed?

Kal looks around, then frowns as he looks up at Jane with questioning eyes, holding the ball close to himself. Do you know where they went?]

[crockers_girl]

[Nope, but she does like spending time with kids! She tilts her head.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[He stands up and goes to Jane's side, tugging on her pants to make sure she doesn't leave. He doesn't like being alone.

The ball rolls away, but he doesn't seem to notice.]

[leftthenest]

[Big brother senses tingling.

He kneels down in front of the little baby and smiles.]

What are you doing here, kiddo?

[kryptonsbaby]

[He throws the ball at the man with the funny mask, then giggles.

He's playing, d'uh!]

[leftthenest]

[He rolls it back gently. Adorable little baby aww.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[He claps. You play very well, man with the funny mask!]

Kaaaaaaal. [He touches his chest.] Abuuu?

[leftthenest]

[He's confused for a second but... oh, the baby is introducing himself.

He points to himself.] Nightwing.

[kryptonsbaby]

Aniiiiing.

[Close enough? Kal stands up and holds his hands towards Dick. Up!] Aning up!

[leftthenest]

[Close enough. He picks up little Kal.]

[kryptonsbaby]

[And Kal reaches for the mask because it made him curious.

Tug! P:]

[leftthenest]

[Nice try, baby Kal, but that thing's practically glued on.]

Ah, ah, don't tug on that.

[forourqueen]

[To eat or not to eat, that's the question...]

[kryptonsbaby]

[Definitely not! Kryptonians don't make nice meals. Don't listen to what Parasite says.]

Bloooh?

[forourqueen]

[Well, maybe not. He had kids when he was still alive...]

What?

[kryptonsbaby]

Anonono ouch.

[He tries to point at the man's face. That looks like a really big ouchie.]

[forourqueen]

[Yeah, that's a big ouch. You're lucky you can't see the rest of him under that armor, kid. Gabe will just... stick his tongue out of those massive tears.]
