29 Chimera Court, Saturday Morning

Well, Liam's age could be measured in the single digits even on weekends where something hadn't happened to cause many of Fandom's residents to wake up as children. That didn't mean that this weekend's weirdness had skipped him, of course. No, the Liam who woke up this morning was actually child-shaped.

Which meant he had regressed to a point where he was still very new to, well, existence. He could tell that something was not-quite-right, but lacked the words to describe just what that was.

What he did know was that he was cold. Which was an easy enough problem to solve, he just pulled the blanket off the chair and wrapped it around his shoulders.

Then there was the strange rumbling sound his stomach was making. That... he didn't know what to do about, exactly. Clearly, some exploration was in order.

Nathan had been a tiger all week. Which had suited him well enough. It was difficult to complain about being a large wildcat, after all.

Today, though, he wasn't a tiger. Today he was himself, having woken up sprawled out across his bed, and after putting on some clothing he was making his way to the kitchen for something to eat that preferably wasn't raw meat.

But first, tea. Nathan was not facing his first day back without fur without tea. So he could be found plugging in the kettle, not yet aware of any further island shenanigans that might be upon them.

It took Nathan a moment to realize he wasn't alone. It took him another few moments to realize that this had to be one of those weekends.

Because of course the island would turn him back in time to find a kid randomly in his house. He blinked across the room at Liam, momentarily confused. And then offered him a friendly smile and a little wave. He'd figure out who the kid was in a bit, he was sure.

"Good morning," he greeted. "Hungry?"

That earned a blink, and then Nathan nodded a little.

"Right, then." He nodded toward the fridge. "I was about to make breakfast, I could make enough for two."

He paused, and then quietly decided to make at least enough for four. Either his roommates were children or they had children. Either way, it wouldn't be a bad idea to make extra.

And if it turned out that this kid was the only one who came along, well, he had no doubt they could just leave the rest of the food out for Magnus and it would disappear eventually.

Nathan just smiled and reached to unplug the kettle.

"I'm making tea as well," he explained, "though I'm not certain you'll care for it. There should be juice in the fridge."

Unless someone had finished it off over the course of the week. Nathan wouldn't have. He'd been busy being a tiger, and all.

"How do pancakes sound?" They seemed traditional for these sorts of weekends. "Assuming we have all the ingredients."

"As did mine," Nathan replied, smiling faintly. Oh, good, the boy could talk. "Would you like to try some, then? In case you like it as well?"

Hey, at least it wasn't coffee and cheerios.

Eventually Miguel found his way around this weird house and down to the kitchen. Where he eyed both the other boy and the adult there a little suspiciously. Strangers could be good or bad.
what_the_shock: (young - hi)

[personal profile] what_the_shock 2017-11-18 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, he wasn't being outright hostile just yet, at least. So Miguel gave him an awkward little wave. "Hi."
what_the_shock: (young - hi)

[personal profile] what_the_shock 2017-11-18 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Miguel still wasn't sure about the adult, but if the kid was okay and didn't seem upset, that was a good indication?

So he sidled in and sat nearby. "Hi. What's your name?"
what_the_shock: (young - cynical)

[personal profile] what_the_shock 2017-11-18 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
"Miguel," he answered. "You're not from the school, are you?" He seemed a little young.
what_the_shock: (young - shocked)

[personal profile] what_the_shock 2017-11-19 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Not at all?" Miguel was kind of boggled at that. "How do you learn anything?"

So, this was going to be Nathan's day, was it? Well, he was fairly resigned to it, at any rate.

"Breakfast today is scrambled eggs with cheese," he announced, nodding to the mostly prepped meal. "I don't have anything much more fancy than that, I'm afraid."
what_the_shock: (young - cynical)

[personal profile] what_the_shock 2017-11-19 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
"That'll do," Miguel said, partly still suspicious and partly trying to play it cool.

[personal profile] shiroi_tiger 2017-11-19 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
"It had better," Nathan replied easily. "I haven't had a chance to buy groceries all week."

It was hard to count change with paws.
what_the_shock: (young - side-eye)

[personal profile] what_the_shock 2017-11-19 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
"You can't just order them?" Miguel asked. Everybody could order things.
shiroi_tiger: (The Almighty Eyebrow)

[personal profile] shiroi_tiger 2017-11-19 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
"... Order groceries?"

Look, you could absolutely order groceries, but a Civil War era man who had been living in the mountains of Japan for the past six years wasn't exactly the person to talk to about that sort of thing.

"It's better than going to the bodega," Miguel said, rolling his eyes. Even if the bodega did have a pretty awesome cat. "Delivery always has more, and they bring it to you."

[personal profile] shiroi_tiger 2017-11-19 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, I enjoy the walk," Nathan replied easily. "If I sit around here all the time, I'm liable to lose my mind."

Said the guy who would quite happily become a hermit in the mountains of Japan just to live a quiet life away from civilization at large.
