*Nessa was bored after the childbirth and needed something to do. She knocked on the door to the nursery.*
"Miss Brandi? It's me, Nessa. Do you have any work for me?"

*Brandi's eyes darted to the door in panic.*
Ohcrapohcrapohcrap...
"Um...I just..."
*She looked around the room, trying to think of something.*
"There is some laundry that needs to be done. Downstairs."
*She lifted her voice, speaking through the door which she kept purposefully shut.*

*Nessa didn't try to enter the nursery. Somehow she was afraid to be too attached to her son. It would be more difficult to separate from him afterwards.*
"Ok, Miss Brandi. If you need me for anything else, just ask."
*Nessa walked out of the hall and went downstairs.*

*Brandi sighed and collapsed against the door. This was going to be hard. And did she really need more things to worry about? The not knowing was the worst though.*

*Lolcat uncurled from a satisfying nap after his cheezburger.*
"IN UR CRIB, EATIN' UR BABIES!" *he cried.* "JK."

*Brandi started in surprise at the additional voice and the words it spoke, falling forward from the door. Only then did she process the scene and pursed her lips. Her brow rose disapprovingly.*
“Not funny, Lolcat. That’s unfair to do to me on a bad day.”
*But then her face softened, just a little, to allow the hint of a smile.*
"Ok," *She said with a shrug.* "a little funny."

*Lolcat bounced up and leaped with surprising agility to Brandi's shoulder.*
"I HAS A BRANDI," *he announced.* "I CAN KEEP?"

*Brandi chuckled gently and scratched the cat behind the ears and under the chin.*
“Hmm…I might have to talk to Cry-Baby about that one…”
*She smiled as her scratching worked its way down his spine.*
“But I’d like that very much. If you’re agreeable.”

"DO WANT."

*Brandi's smile widened, for a moment at peace, no thoughts of War or Hedonism or babies or... Dude. Cats were awesome.*
"I do too. I'll see what I can do."
*She gave him a final scratch and started to the door, but as soon as she touched it, she remembered Hedonism. She froze and swallowed. What was she facing out there? Or was it something she was just blowing out of proportion? She couldn't hide out in the nursery forever, but still... She turned back to spy a large comfy rocking chair.*
"After a nap, ok?"
*It had seemed like a good idea at the time, but with a cat around... She smiled gently.*
"You're welcome to join me if you'll watch your tail."
*She sat and patted her lap.*

*Lolcat twitched his tail and jumped onto her lap, curling quickly into a fuzzy grey mass of kitty. He purred like the satisfied cheezburger-filled alien talking cat he was.*

((And that is just a brick of pure win.))
*Brandi smiled and stroked his sleek coat as her eyes drifted shut. She rocked them both gently until she drifted off.*

**NEW DAY, POST "FIGHT"** He didn't go far. In fact, he went next door, into the sound-proof room that served as the nursery. The babies were all sleeping, but one, Bebe, looked up at him and burped and it was about the cutest thing he'd ever seen. He picked her up. His sister's kids were good-lookin' enough, but these... He knew these would be knockouts. Well, they were Cry-Baby Walker's, weren't they? He tried not to think about what else they'd become. Bebe cradled against him, he walked around a little, jogging her playfully. She seemed to like it, so he sat down and jiggled her a little more. She bubbled and made what he thought were appreciative noises, and he smiled uncomplicatedly down at her. And started singing softly. I'm only fourteen, but I'm goin' on fifteen But I wanna be sixteen, so I can get me a hot rod I want a streamline chassis, man it's gotta be classy I' m gonna give it that certain touch With a little bit of Von Dutch I found a real cute baby, she's a real swingin' baby And she says we'll go steady just As soon as I get me a hot rod
I'm gonna take her for a moonlight drive Across Mullholland Drive, then we'll really be alive As soon as I get me a hot rod With my baby sittin' close to me We'll do a little draggin' don't you see We'll even lay a path for you and me As soon as I get me a hot rod Yeah, I'm only fourteen, but I'm goin' on fifteen But I wanna be sixteen, so I can get me a hot rod(( Song here))

**AN HOUR LATER**
*Brandi pursed her lips. Worried or not, the children still had to be cared for and with Cry-Baby on walkabout... She sighed in frustration, putting on a simple dress and slipping next door. Surprise showed in her face when she saw Cry-Baby in the room with one of the children in his arms. He looked sweet. He looked like himself. But that did mean he wasn't still put off.*
"Oh. I'm sorry." *She whispered, in case the other children still slept.*
"I just came to check on them, but...if you still want alone time...I can come back later."
*She made no move to leave. She didn't want to. But she would, if it was his wish for her to.*

Cry-Baby looked up, his face young and untroubled.
"Nah. Look what she can do."
He held out a finger, and Bebe grabbed it.
"Girl's got a grip," he said proudly.
