Cabot and Associates: Monday

[bigbadgunn.livejournal.com]

Gunn felt pretty smug that he was able to get away from any child responsibilities this weekend. It allowed him a chance to sit back and chuckle at all the shell shocked people walking around with kiddies from alternate universes.

It might be the reason why he's sitting outside the law office with a bin of candy. Along with that is a large sign that says: "Free Candy for Kids!"

There's also a pile of waivers for the kids to sign releasing Gunn from any responsiblity concerning hyperactivity, tooth decay and about anything else imaginable under the sun.

Maybe this legal/lawyer thing was wearing off on him.

"Uncle Charles!"

Oh yeah. Somewhere in your heart, Gunn, you had to have known that was coming. Though possibly not the thin, brown-haired girl he was tugging along behind him.

Who was smiling genuinely, except for the rare flash, only when the child wasn't looking, of the impression that maintaining that smile required the chewing of acid-coated glass.

"Uncle... what?" Gunn said looking up from his briefs.

Okay, it was a comic book. Not legal briefs. Or briefs for that matter.

And then he saw the brown haired girl... One that he saw briefly before when freaky blue haired girl did a shape changing thing.

Oh man.

He attempted to do a quick recovery. "Hey! What's going on little man?" he said putting up his hand for a fist bump. "You must be getting big, I barely recognized you. How are you and your mom doing?"

"Wow, you're quick on the draw, aren't you." After two days of this, the words came far too easily - faster than anything Illyria herself might have answered.

"I'm really really big!" Mitch agreed cheerfully. "My head's almost up to th' doorknob now! Dad says I'm gonna be even taller, 'cuz he and mommy are."

"Yeah?" Gunn said reaching out tousle the boy's hair. "Well you don't want to get too big too soon. That might make your Mom a little sad. Blue even."

Yes. He thought he was clever as well as "quick on the draw".

"She doesn't get blue. She's pink!" Mitch frowned and glanced towards the big castle. "Blue people are scary."

Gunn cast an eye back at "Fred" and raised an eyebrow at her. "Tell you what," he said to his "nephew". "Anything blue and scary shows up? Just call me and I'll take care of it. Deal?"

"Deal!" Mitch put out his hand for the secret cool respect-yo handshake that Uncle Angel always got pouty about because he couldn't get the fingers right. Because he's a pansy-arse.
