David's a little lost

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

((When multiverses collide! Basically hat would happen if trans_9's Chief got switched out for 8_dressing and also his not!son, a young version of Solid Snake, was there, too. Samus is David's "mom" in 8, but normal 9 Samus will be participating for maximum wtfery))

Dad? Daaaad?

[Don't mind David. He's just over her on the Obs Deck hanging out, looking around and inspecting the meatcouch. He's a little lost. Normally when stuff like this happens his dad just comes over and makes things ~*all better*~ but he can't seem to find him at the moment.]

Don't touch the glass. [Just a little reminder there, David.] It'll get smeared.

And it is, a little bit. Much bigger though. Her name is Stacy. [Perfectly calm. Everything's fine. He doesn't want David to worry about things as much as he is.]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

What awww

[David listens, pulling back from the window SIGH I GUESS MAKING FACES OUT INTO THE VAST ABYSS WILL HAVE TO WAIT] Stacy is a weird name. She's all weird and meaty. I like Adam better.

[prettycoolguy]

Me too, David. Me too.

[He sighs. Then, idea.]

Have you been to the lockers, David? Big place kind of like the warehouse?

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

Nope. [David shakes his head]

[prettycoolguy]

Let's go do that then. [And away we go!]

Stacy might have brought some of your things here for you.

[In the meantime, David is scrambling to get to Chief's shoulders. It's a much better position for piggy-back rides]

My bandanna! You think it's there?

[prettycoolguy]

[The Chief lets him, he doesn't mind. He's used to David doing that.]

Maybe. Who knows? Maybe your box is here too. [He knows that always cheers David up.]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

[Box love <3]

AWESOME! Then I could sneak around. [/plots]

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

[Oh yeah, look who it is that just turned around the corner. It's your girlfriend not!wife live in... something except not really. Isn't that exciting.]

[She will just pause and give you an odd look. Why would Chief be chartering around some adorable little kid?]

[prettycoolguy]

[Oh hello Samus. The Chief notices the look.]

He's my son. [Yep, still walking. Maybe David won't say anyth-]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

MOM!

Mom this ship is so weird it's not like Adam at all why is it made of meat that's really creepy why are there tentacles where's Adam what's for lunch and oh yeah I think I broke a lamp before I got here I'm sorry.

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

[That noise? It's Samus' brain breaking.]

[Her face just sort of goes blank for a moment. Give her a minute to reboot. She blinks a couple times] ...mom?

[prettycoolguy]

[Siiiiiiigh. Okay, here we go. He stops.]

David, this isn't your mom, okay?

[He looks at Samus.]

It's a long story.

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

Huh? But... it looks just like her.

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

[It sure as hell better be a long story. Poor Samus is still trying to work through this. The first question is not 'why did he call me mom' or even 'why the hell are you the father' it's...]

How did he know about Adam?

[prettycoolguy]

We knew someone... a lot like you.

[Oh god how do you explain?!]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

Hey, are you like a mom robot or something?

[He's secretly hoping so because that would be AWESOME]

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

[:| Samus still has not put together that this Chief is different from the one that she knows. If Chief is the dad...]

Why does he keep calling. me. mom.

[prettycoolguy]

Because in another reality you are.

[Yeah, let's just get that out there.]

If it helps, he's adopted.

[And to David]

No, she's not a robot.

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

Oh. [/disappointed]

[He hunches over Chief's head. He's staaaaaaaring at you, Samus]

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

You... aren't the Chief I know. Okay. [She feels better knowing that even though she doesn't get along with him he wouldn't hide a GINORMOUS thing like this from her until it managed to show up on the ship]

But you and... another Samus [she is refusing to say "I"] are... have an adopted son.

But we don't get along. [/matter of fact]

[prettycoolguy]

I got along with her.

[It's just... matter of fact. Very "that's all I really have to say about that".]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

[David nods along] You guys go shooting.

Or uh... Dad and Mom go shooting?

[This lady is weird. She's looks like Mom and kind of acts like Mom but Mom gets along with Dad. It'd be weird to see them act like that]

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

[Samus is still trying to wrap her mind around the fact that in some VERY STRANGE alternate universe she and the Master Chief actually have a life with a son and a broken lamp and it is a VERY STRANGE feeling because she was always sure that if there was one thing certain in her life, it was that she would not settle down]

[And with the Master Chief of all people, seriously...]

I... don't understand. I'm not sure I want to.

[prettycoolguy]

Ssshh, David. [Don't scare the person that's not your mom!]

It's not your business either way. [He'd shrug but he's got David on his shoulders.]

We have things to take care of. [He turns to move on.]

[gogopowersuit.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head] It's not. [She's glad it's not.]

I'll go then. [This entire ordeal has been WAY to confusing and Samus needs to go find a drink sort things out and not go crazy]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

...

That was weird.




She wasn't even made about the lamp!

[prettycoolguy]

She's not your mom, David, okay?

She looks like her, but she's another person. [Patience! Oh hey look, W&P.]

We're here, let's go see what we can find.

[Chief lets David down, if he can trust him in a warehouse in infinity he can trust him here.]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

[David almost asks if real Mom was ever that mean, but decides against it. Smart kid when he wants to be]

Okay. [And were walking into W&P and...]

Woahhhhh. It's huge!

[prettycoolguy]

See?

[The Chief starts looking around for any sign of the box or bandana.]

Just don't touch anything that isn't yours.

[Like he'll actually listen. But it needed said.]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

[Sorry, what was that? David was diving right into a pile of stuff. I do believe he just found the holy grail.]

[But that's boring, he tosses it to the side]

I can't find it.

[prettycoolguy]

[Chief just kind of shakes his head. Oh, David. He notices something...]

Because I found it.

[Here David, flying bandana!]

[kiddy-box.livejournal.com]

[Catch!]

Awesome!
