Why're we having this conversation again? I thought you forgot about that. [Fen is pouting. Okay, almost pouting. It usually works on the Mun! It worked for his great-great-great-granddad, why not him?]

I'm really grateful that discussion Kronk and I had amused the hell out of you, 'cause you didn't really think of much else for a while. But-

Quit smirking at me, you. I am not gonna go find a Loki and call him Daddy. Just no. And why not, you ask? Uh, lemme see here. One, see username. Two, see username. And three, see username.

If I drank, I'd need a beer right now.

[Focuses in on the important part:] If you don't drink, how do you know you'd need a beer?

[notthatfenrir]

Because it's just one of those things. Stressed out enough you'd grab a beer, well, in my case I grab a Jolt instead.

[Yeah, because he needs all that caffeine. Being odd's already in the blood Fen, don't make it worse]

[unlucky_but_skilled]

I guess beer can make you feel relaxed... It always makes me too talkative though. As soon as it wears off... [He shrugs and seems to change his mind about something.] Meh, it's not that big a deal.

What's a Jolt? That a mixed drink?

[notthatfenrir]

I dunno how it'd work with me, closest I ever got was a sip I spit out when one of my cousins switched out my cup at a party. [He rolls his eyes. He's still not even sure which cousin it was. One of the hazards of inviting the entire extended family for holidays]

Soda. With a lot of caffeine. Always good for keeping me awake, annoying my brother...[Fen smirks suddenly] Or thinking up new ways to apply my spells to the cause of kicking Celia's ass.

[Such a good cousin he is. But seriously, sometimes he's sure Celia's the devil incarnate]

[unlucky_but_skilled]

...Spells? [OH. Geoff's body language shifts slightly.]

It, ah, sounds like you wouldn't like beer anyway, if you spit it out...

[notthatfenrir]

Yeah. It's pretty normal where I come from. [Fen's eyebrows raise as he watches him. Somebody that's maybe scared of him. That's new...and kind of disturbing]

Naw, it was gross. Y'know, I don't bite. [He grins a bit] I'm Fen.

sorry, fell asleep

[unlucky_but_skilled]

Is it. So everyone's a mage where you're from? [He doesn't sound any less uneasy.]

[Geoff snorts.] Biting's not usually what you worry about with magic.

...Geoff.

S'okay, I had to go to bed anyway. ^^;

[notthatfenrir]

Not everybody, but it's not some big thing. I mean- [Fen frowns and gestures absently]

There aren't any class distinctions. We're all the same, it's just that some of us don't need matches to light a fire, y'know? Besides, people rely on the Mages to deal with the monsters and protecting the cities, so. Not that they couldn't just haul out a sword, but it's easier.

Yeah, true. Nice to meet you.

[unlucky_but_skilled]

And you don't think being able to start fires without matches is a bit more dangerous than not? It's not a temptation to start setting things on fire?

[He actually seems a little less uneasy now though. Fen might be dangerous, but he also seems like he's not that bad a guy, for a mage.]

[notthatfenrir]

Sure it is, but that's what we have teachers and ethics classes for. You have the right teacher, you don't wander around torching things 'cause you're bored, or 'cause you feel like being a creep.

[Fen would laugh at the idea that he's dangerous. Oh, he can be, but it's not something people actually throw at him. Troublemaker is closer.]

Not saying we don't have people that use magic for all the wrong stuff, but most of us know better.

[behavesverybadly]

Lokis from all worlds will thank you for that, kid, I'm sure. At least those from reasonable canons.

[notthatfenrir]

Mun's out of her mind. I've got better things to do than weird people out. Wait. Lemme rephrase. 'Than weird complete strangers out'. I save most of that for my family.

[behavesverybadly]

Ahaha... Indeed, who could possibly see any merit in bothering strangers? Such an upstanding moral boy you are. Now, family is a little different, of course, since it's all in good fun! [It's almost never "in good fun" with Loki.]

[notthatfenrir]

[Fen's just going to snort at the 'upstanding moral boy' remark. Last he checked, trying to set fire to the tree the devil incarnate his cousin was in didn't fall under upstanding or moral behavior]

[behavesverybadly]

Snorting like that is bad manners, I hope you know.

[notthatfenrir]

Preeetty sure I do.

[Stop grinning Fen, that's rude too]

[trololoki]

Aww, why not?

[notthatfenrir]

Because it's weird and twisted and I'm not some five year old, and I already have a family! Plus the part she keeps forgetting! *points to username*

[squeak_squeaker]

...at least you didn't have to call ME daddy. I bet you'd have to call Yzma 'mommy' if you had to do that and...uh.

And that'd be awfully bad and stuff. [Kronk was very optimistic!]

[notthatfenrir]

[He will just stare at you Kronk, while he tries to process that. And then he'll bust out laughing]

You're- [He snickers] you'd be okay. But Yzma- think I'd die-

[And now the supposed adult is on his back laughing. Is it possible for Super Weird to pass down four generations?]

[squeak_squeaker]

You look more like me than you look like Yzma! That's great, right? [Poor guy could've looked like a purple swamp creature.]

...you kinda don't look a whole lot like me either though, buddy. And I think I'm too young to be your father. And I don't know where babies come from yet. [Another big flaw in that theory!]

[notthatfenrir]

[Fen's still lying on the floor laughing, but at least he's trying to calm down. After a few moments he pushes himself up into a sitting position, still grinning]

Hey, I could've always been adopted! [Like he hadn't wondered that from time to time as a kid...until the Dream magic surfaced. That pretty much ruled it out. Kronk's never heard about the birds and the bees? Poor Kronk. Fen's not gonna tell him]

[squeak_squeaker]

Hah... yeah! [Kronk laughed, even though he really meant that seriously. He'd definitely adopt Fenrir! Even though, well, someone should probably adopt Kronk before he went out and adopted other people.]

[And it was a good thing he didn't know about that stuff yet. Good but kind of sad.] Your chin's not much of a Kronk chin.

[notthatfenrir]

[Pictures are now popping up in the Mun's head of Kronk adopting an entire orphanage. The Cute, it's overwhelming]

Naw, it's more like a Jale chin. [Fen tilts his head back and taps it] Take after my great-great-great-granddad's dad. [He rolls his eyes] There's gotta be an easier way to say that.

[squeak_squeaker]

[That'd be what Kronk would do when he's older and a little wiser. And rich from selling all those spinach puffs! Best orphanage ever... with cookies after every meal?]

Oh... yeah! Too bad. I mean. Uhh. Your chin's nice too. [But it was no Kronk chin.]

[notthatfenrir]

[Cookies before and after every meal!]

[More snickering] Thanks, I'll pass that on to my ancestors. [No worries Kronk, he can't talk to dead people. He just likes to be a smart aleck]

[squeak_squeaker]

It really is, Junior Chipmunk pinky promise! Just...uh.

[He furrowed his eyebrows in deep thought.] Hate to tell you, but... you're no Kronk. You're a good looking little fellow, but you're kinda low on muscles.

[notthatfenrir]

[Fen lifts first one arm to peer at it, then the other, and shrugs]

Heh, you've got a point. I do well enough without 'em, I guess. I can still swing a sword if I have to, and there's always my magic.

[squeak_squeaker]

You're good at other stuff! And your hair's pretty too. [Kronk was confident in his masculinity; if a guy's hair was pretty he wasn't afraid to tell him.]

Mine's not great... it kinda frizzes.

[notthatfenrir]

[He is good at other stuff! He can shoot a slingshot like nobody's business, and perch up in a tree for almost a whole day without falling out, and make his own snowballs in summer! Okay, so they're ice balls, but it's close]

Really? [This comment is going to lead to Fen pulling a strand of hair out of his eyes so he can stare at it, frowning a bit] The red's not too...blood colored? Red hair runs in the family, but not always this shade. I think I had an aunt somewhere once with the same color.

So what's wrong with frizz? Unless you have frizzy hair because you stuck a fork in a light socket, I don't see a problem with it.

[squeak_squeaker]

[Kronk could...uhh. Talk to chipmunks and bake and run around for miles without getting sleepy!]

I dunno, I don't think it looks like blood. Just looks like it's dark red!

I've never seen red hair before. [Aww, that make Kronk laugh! Even though he didn't know what a light socket was yet, that did cheer him up.] Everyone where I'm from has straight hair, but mine's kinda wavy. I think Yzma likes it tho.

[notthatfenrir]

[Talking to chipmunks could be useful, and baking is always good! Fen could use the ability to run for miles without getting sleepy...but he's good at finding places to hide when he can't run, so it's a good trade off]

Kinda looks like blood to me. [Fen shrugs and finally gets up off the floor] Really? My granddad's magic teacher when he was a kid - the granddad way back - she had white hair, and she was only in her twenties. I think somebody cursed her with it, though.

[Fen's not sure how changing someone's hair color from brown to white is supposed to be a curse, but that's what he was told, so.]

Straight, wavy, it's all good. [He makes a bit of a face suddenly] Yzma doesn't like playing with your hair, does she?

[squeak_squeaker]

[Kronk, on the other hand, was terrible at hiding! He was much too big and loud and clumsy on top of that. But he was very good at baking cakes!]

Everyone I know has black hair and tan skin, just like me... I know some older people that have grey hair though! My papi has grey hair, but he's old. He's almost sixty! [Back then, that was a lot older than it is now. Unless you're Yzma, she was... a gazillion years old.]

Oh...uhh. [Kronk's cheeks colored a bit.] No... she just likes to pinch my arms.

[notthatfenrir]

[Cakes are good. And muffins. And scones. His mother makes really good raspberry scones. She should've been a baker]

Sixty's not that old now, I bet Celia lives to be a hundred. [And she'll spend her entire life tormenting him, he's sure. Her and Yzma would probably get along well. Gah]

Oh good. [Fen lets out a sigh of relief] Not good that she pinches you, that's mean, but the hair thing-

[This is edging toward the birds and the bees thing, and Fen does not want to go there]

So how's Igor been?

[squeak_squeaker]

[Kronk loved muffins! He made some last week and he gave them to all his new friends too. Kronk always liked to share, even moreso than eating.]

Yzma's even older than that... I think! But, yeah, doesn't pet my hair. [Kronk wouldn't mind being petted, but not by Yzma. He smiled and held Igor up to show him how good he looked!]

I gave him cuddles EVERY day! Careful ones.

[notthatfenrir]

[Blueberry muffins are the best. Ooh, and cranberry. Those are Fen's absolute favorites]

Yzma's probably a million. [Seriously, just look at the woman. He grins as Kronk shows off Igor]

Glad you're enjoying him.

[squeak_squeaker]

[Kronk gave Igor another big cuddle.] He's the best AND the softest! I went to sleep all fast and stuff last night, even with Yzma there. She was all screaming at me because Emperor Kuzco made fun of her...

But that's not even my fault, right?

[notthatfenrir]

[See, Heartless are good for something besides eating Hearts! Okay, stuffed ones. Hugging a live Heartless is not recommended]

Nope. Yzma just has...issues. [That's putting it politely. Fen would've been tempted to turn her nightgown into an ice cube if it'd been him]

If she's mad at the Emperor she oughta be screaming at him. [Because that'd go over well]

[squeak_squeaker]

[Kronk would be very confused if he ever saw a live one! But other than join up with Hades in the Disney World 'Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom' game thing, Yzma never really teamed up with other villains.]

Oh... yeah. She kinda does!

I dunno if you're allowed to scream at Emperor Kuzco. Seems like he'd get angry if you did that! [And Kuzco and Yzma really hated eachother.]
