The Park, Monday Evening

Some would rejoice, others would cry, and a good chunk of Fandom's population would probably wind up with mixed feelings. This portal had brought the children onto the island but two nights ago, and now it had reversed the polarity of the neutron flow returned to take them back.

It floated calmly in the middle of the park's clearing, exuding a soft yellow light. It wouldn't steer the children wrong.

Say your goodbyes, Fandom... for the year.

[[ up early for sp, and open to all. *hands out tissues at the door* ]]

"Okay Daddy," BJ declared, hanging off his father's arm. "Can I have a popsicle afore I go?"

...random, BJ. Random.

"I don't think we have any popsicles out here," Fraser said apologetically. "Can you maybe have one when you get back home?"

"Red ones?" he asked hopefully. "I can share with the dogs!"

"You...might wanna ask your mom if that's allowed," Fraser said, deciding to put that on the other Robin. "You can definitely have a popsicle but you don't want to make the dogs sick."

"Do you want Popcorn to turn red? That's what happens," Robin totally lied.

BJ considered this and then decided, "Do you think I can get a puppy if I ask nice?"

"...probably," Fraser admitted because they were apparently pushovers for dogs. "You want a puppy?"

BJ looked up at Robin, then gestured Fraser closer. "I got a secret, Daddy."

[identity profile] just-add-starch.livejournal.com 2011-02-15 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Fraser shifted closer to him, leaning forward so the boy could whisper in his ear. "What's your secret, BJ?"

BJ looked at his mother uncertainly, then leaned to whisper in Fraser's ear. "I want a kitty. But Mommy hates them."

[identity profile] just-add-starch.livejournal.com 2011-02-15 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Fraser laughed because that had not been what he'd been expecting to hear. He leaned forward and kissed the top of BJ's head. "I think if you behave yourself and ask your mother very nicely, you'll get your kitten. You'll have to help take care of her, of course."

[identity profile] thedrugsnamedme.livejournal.com 2011-02-15 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
BJ nodded eagerly. "I'm good at helping! I'd take really really good care of a kitty! I promise!"

"Good boy," Fraser said, nodding. "Maybe you can get mom here to write you a note to take back home that'll help you convince your mom there."

Robin hid a smile as she fished a pen out of her pocket. (Honestly, she didn't hate cats that much. They just weren't as awesome as dogs.) "Now, you know you're not supposed to draw on yourself, right BJ?"

"Not since I draw that moustache," he agreed, which Robin kind of boggled at.

Robin wrote 'Dear Other Robin, Get the kid a cat. Make sure it's a cute one. Love, Awesome Robin' on BJ's forearm. "There you go, kiddo."

"I got a tattoo!" BJ yelled, showing Fraser proudly.

[identity profile] just-add-starch.livejournal.com 2011-02-15 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"You did!" Fraser said, kind of boggling at the mustache thing himself. He almost wanted to ask about it. "Now, you promise that you'll be a good helper when your mom gets you a kitty, all right?"

[identity profile] thedrugsnamedme.livejournal.com 2011-02-15 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"I promise!" BJ said, and actually saluted. Poorly. But cutely.

[identity profile] just-add-starch.livejournal.com 2011-02-15 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Fraser saluted back before leaning forward and kissing the top of his head again. "Say goodbye to your mother before we send you on home. Give her a great big hug and kiss."

[identity profile] thedrugsnamedme.livejournal.com 2011-02-16 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
BJ did as told, running over and hugging Robin, who actually kind of hugged him hard in return.

Look, she liked the kid. She was allowed.

With a cheerful wave of his written-on arm, he ran off into the portal.

Fraser waved after him before reaching out and taking Robin's hand. "Ready to go home?"

[identity profile] canadianpopstar.livejournal.com 2011-02-16 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah," she sighed, leaning into him. "That kid is so cute. The other me better give him a kitten."

[identity profile] just-add-starch.livejournal.com 2011-02-16 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
"I think she will," he said, wrapping an arm around her and setting off towards their apartment. "The other you is probably just as smitten as you are."

[identity profile] canadianpopstar.livejournal.com 2011-02-16 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
"First of all, I'm not smitten with anything, shh," she lied. "Secondly, probably not, because she had to deal with giving birth to him and like, dealing with his tantrums. I only get the fun stuff."

[identity profile] just-add-starch.livejournal.com 2011-02-16 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
Fraser didn't try to argue on the first point but he knew she was lying. "I think she probably is smitten even if she deals with BJ on a more permanent basis. It's hard not to be smitten with him. He's adorable."
