2nd floor common room - Sunday afternoon

[cameronmitchell]

Cameron was quietly boggling at the little girl sitting beside him on the couch. At least he'd managed to take off his tuxedo from yesterday and after some major bargaining he had gotten Marybeth to agree to eat lunch on the condition that she got ice cream as dessert.

He had a lot to learn about parenting.

Marybeth was happily eating her ice cream and kicking her legs.

"Daddy? What is this place? Why aren't we at home?"

[cameronmitchell]

"It's Fandom," he replied, not sure how to explain that weirdness to a 5 year old. "We're uh... here because I have some stuff to do here." Very clear.

"This is where you met Mommy!" Marybeth said. "And Uncle Marty and Uncle Logan and Uncle Angel and... oh! Can we call Uncle Angel later? We haven't visited the Hyp... Hip... the hotel in forever!"

[cameronmitchell]

"Uh..." Cameron blinked. "I think we might want to wait until your mom has called," he said.

Dick came into the common room with his kid. The little boy had gotten syrup all over him this morning and was now wearing one of his dad's shirts that read "There's a U in ugly".

"You too?" he asked Cam, gesturing to the little girl.

Ryan walked past his dad and went to go turn on the TV. There's got to be cartoons on somewhere.

Marybeth spotted Dick and jumped off the couch. She ran over and kicked him in the shin as hard as she could.

[surferboy_09er]

"Ow!" yelled Dick, this being the second time he'd been abused by a kid today. "What was that for?"

Cassie peeked into the common room.

"Okay, who made it bring your little sibling to school day?"

[cameronmitchell]

"I really wish that was it," Cameron replied.

[robotboyfetish]

Cassie raised an eyebrow. "Are people turning into kids again?

[cameronmitchell]

"No, that would also be preferable," Cameron said. "Think more like people's kids are turning up."

Angela came in, carrying s small girl with dark blond hair. "Cute kid," she told Cameron. "Does she think she's yours?"

"Am yours, mama," Marcie contributed, chewing on a strand of hair.

[just_like_mommy]

"Aunt Ang'la! Marcie!" Marybeth bounced over. "Hi hi hi hi!"

[blanking_kids]

"Bethie!" Marcie said, practically hurtling down from Angela's arms. "Hi! Wanna play?"

[just_like_mommy]

"Sure!" Marybeth replied. "What do you wanna play?"

Stark had managed to avoid the weetinies thus far. So when he walked into the common room, he was surprised to see a small horde of children.

"Where did they come from this time?"

[cameronmitchell]

"First guess? Prom," Cameron quipped and made a mental note to ask Marybeth more questions when she was done playing.

[banikslaveboy]

Stark blinked. "That was...fast."

See, he'd known that prom thing wasn't a good idea.

[cameronmitchell]

"Yeah, so I'm probably wrong but I don't really have another explanation," Cameron said.
