Fenris was still in human baby form. But when he woke up from his nap, he found himself feeling too restless to sit still, and began to shake the walls of the crib he was standing in.
"Bwaaa!" He called, punctuating it with a bang against the bars.
If were still a puppy, he could hop out of here. But in this form that he wasn't entirely familiar with, his options were a bit more limited.
"Bah, ah, ah!"

Brandi was gone. He didn't exactly approve--but he understood. Even if he felt guilty for causing it--and for ruining what had probably been a perfectly innocent bit of lovemaking.
But he had a job to do now, and one of the kids was crying, and--
Cry-Baby opened the door to find Fenris standing, just as he'd left him, in the crib. But everything else had changed, and he was unable to take it all in quite yet.

*And that was a true statement, even simplified. For each of War's get had apparently aged (somewhere around 6 or 7 years apparently), blinking in surprise at themselves, naked and looking rather disoriented. Some of the cribs had overturned and the children were crawling about, trying to understand their new situation.*

Fenris, irritated now that the others had gotten out but he was still stuck, banged harder on the crib.
"Aaaaa eh!"
He glanced curiously at Lolcat, who he couldn't recall meeting before.
"Itteh?"

Fenris seemed the only one unchanged, which made the situation obvious enough. Despite his momentary surprise, Cry-Baby couldn't exactly say it was wholly unexpected that they wouldn't progress like other kids. Especially now that they were all in one place.
But that left a huge question, and that was: What to do with a gaggle of sudden post-toddlers, all naked and probably hungry? Could they walk? Talk? Feed themselves? Or had only their bodies grown? He was a little out of his element, here.
"Hey," he said, not sternly but in a tone meant to be heard. "Ev'ryone, listen up! I'm Cry-Baby, an' I hope y'remember me. Cuz I'm takin' care of you for now." Hopefully if they could talk, one of 'em would demonstrate it.

Lolcat turned his attention from his charge to stare impassively at Fenris. He'd been asleep when the baby was brought in--but he recognized him.
"LOLCAT IS LOLCAT," he said. "Y R U NOT DOG?"

*The kids were all over the place. Kit (still looking rather feline) was chasing clumsily after Lolcat. Locke, Stalk and Bearel had managed to turn their cribs onto each other and were now stuff in a bundle of squirming kicks and punches. Bebe still sat in her crib, chewing on her blanket. Aiden (also still upright) seemed a bit smaller and was fidgeting with the wooden caps on his crib. Gavyn (pointed ears still pronounced) had managed to escape his crib without overturning it and was now dangled in the drapes. The new twins sat on the floor next to each other, one frowning as the other giggled and poked him. But Killian...his head upturned to Cry-Baby. He blinked slowly, then lowered his head again, studying the floor. Calculatingly, he pushed himself up, teetering for a moment before growing still. Then his gaze calmly returned to Cry-Baby.*

Unexpectedly, or maybe not, Fenris went from being a blue-eyed dark-haired baby back to his original form of a husky puppy. Unlike last time he'd changed, it hadn't hurt, and it had happened a bit faster. With a bark of happiness, he jumped over the railing of his crib.

Cry-Baby surveyed the damage, but noted only absently that Fenris had changed back. Considering whose kids they were--whether his or War's, and he still didn't quite understand that--he figured things could be worse.
And would probably become so.
Killian caught his attention and Cry-Baby crouched, balancing on his heels to bring himself to eye-level. "Hey," he said. "Bet you're all pretty concerned about this." He figured the kid might be frightened, might not know who he was, might not trust him. He'd do his best.

Kiba was alarmed at the sudden noises coming from the kids' room, although his main concern was for Fenris and whatever might have happened to the pup--his scent had shifted back to normal in a matter of moments, and the kids' scents had gone from infant to child in about the same time.
When he got there, however, there was minor chaos going on; the kids had gotten out of their beds, and were now running around in an uncomfortably erratic manner. They are not prey, he repeated to himself. They are not prey, they are not prey--humans taste like crap, anyway...
He scanned the floor for the pup, finding him wandering about near an upturned crib; the kids weren't looking at the floor, so there was no telling what would happen. Fenris! He weaved through the kids, standing over the pup so nobody would accidentally step on him.

*Killian blinked slowly, studying Cry-Baby as the other continued as they were, pretty oblivious to Kiba. Without warning, Killian reached out and placed his small hand against Cry-Baby's face.*
"No." *He spoke softly, his voice new.*
*Suddenly, the room was silent, all of their faces turned to Cry-Baby, tiny forms frozen otherwise in previous task. Killian blinked again.*
"We...we are legion."

((OH CRAP))
Fenris was certainly glad to see Kiba again, as now that he was a puppy once more he was a bit out of place among the mass of children. He stayed near Kiba, sensing something strange going on with the others.

((DEMON CHILDREN HOSHIT))
This was definitely not normal, Kiba realized, but unfortunately he was at a loss for what to do. They were still the alphas' kids, so he couldn't hurt them without provocation--and being creepy wasn't sufficient provocation for either species, so that idea was discarded.
Maybe I should have taken Helen somewhere else, he thought, moving a few steps to form a living shield around Fenris.
