[@route_29] Dropped from Mayfield. Also regarding something mentioned...

[pumpkinpie]

Can't be helped the game was going to end.

You've got your buttons on another game with that Other me- Other Other me.  o~hoo. And if you're not certain on that I'm al~ways over in Johto.

Kiddo... it's your choice and all, but I'm not so keen on being punched. [It's only a possibility Other Father, and it'll only be by unsure daddy-figures; it was due to happen one day.]

You might want to stop kidnapping children then.

[pianokeys]

We're just giving them the love they need and deserve.

[haveyouseenalittlegirl]

By kidnapping them away from their families to a place made from "dreams" and trying to sew buttons into their eyes.

I'm a writer. I know classic fairy tale set ups when I see them.

[pianokeys]

[Oh.]

They need the buttons to stay in the Otherworld.

[haveyouseenalittlegirl]

Why.

What makes it so essential to take a child and blind them?

[darkenedgales]

If you end up being punched, you'll probably only have yourself to blame.

[pianokeys]

I'm o~nly doing my what I was made to- [oh. oh he wasn't meant to say made. oh.

he pauses, a little embarrassed.] My job.

[darkenedgales]

[It's your (un)lucky day and Crow will actually ignore the part he wasn't supposed to hear! Because priorities.]

If your job is to separate kids from their families, then don't act surprised when people won't take that bullshit!

[pianokeys]

[He likes it when slip-ups go unnoticed.

See, we've got one tiny difference in this conversion now since the one on Father's day, Crow... A certain evil-aligned man accidentally taught Other Father anger- well, okay, so he learnt how to be passive-not-so-aggressive.]

They came to us in the first place, Crow, not so sure their real parents are doing their job.

[But the comment is also a genuine thought.]

[darkenedgales]

Yeah, and you're doing so much better by sewing buttons in their eyes.

[It would be hard to miss the sarcasm and dryness that come with the statement -- because seriously, how is THAT supposed to be good parenting?]

[guardian_chimera]

Another doll? You look like something my creator would of made.

[pianokeys]

[He gives a small, throaty laugh.] I'm not a doll.

[guardian_chimera]

Then what are you?

[pianokeys]

The Other Father.

[guardian_chimera]

Other Father?

[The Chimera knows vaguely what the word father means but it never applied the term to its' creator.]

[wise_lil_wolf]

[Whoah. More button eyes. Weird. Rafe's empathy is picking up some odd emotional blips. At least this one doesn't seem as openly malicious in his thoughts.]

What is with the buttons?

[pumpkinpie]

[Emotional blips seems about right!]

I'm your Other Father, Rafe.

[wise_lil_wolf]

I only have one father. I don't have an other father. Whatever that is.

What's with the buttons? Can you even see?

How do you button people all know my name?

[pumpkinpie]

Everyone's got an Other Father. And what sort of an Other Father would I be if I don't know by brilliant son's name?

Wouldn't be able to see without them.

[railsb4pails]

Why're you getting punched!? [THAT'S NOT COOL! DD:]

[pianokeys]

No~thing to concern you, Nepeta. Just a pawful mistake.

[He won't let you worry about him, so he'll make jokes instead.]

[everyonelovesgames]

Oh dear, a game is coming to an end? That's such a pity!

[pianokeys]

[A nod.]

I didn't see anythin' wrong with the game; seems fu~n to me.

[everyonelovesgames]

Oh? Well, why is it closing then?

[pianokeys]

People are winning? [He's got no clue.] 'Shame to see a game end; I know how much you love 'em.
