I still find it impressive the progress on getting Keyblades a body is going at all.
Yeah, I thought it would have taken much longer to even make a foot of progress, but the progress is something.
I was talking with X mentally while walking down the hall. It had been about a month or so since Lord Death joined the council and everyone from his world was informed about the things going on. So far though, only those at his academy for… whatever that is again, have Keyblades. I admit, everyone in that building has combat experience… I’d be lying if I said that Dr. Stine guy didn’t both, kick my ass, and scare the crap out of me. I feel sorry for the staff at Castle Oblivion when we assigned him there.
I found myself near Scootaloo’s room. Huh, been a while since we talked a bit. Wonder how she’s been doing? I walked over to the door. “Oh, please!” I heard Scoot’s say.
Huh, one of the kids with her?
“It’s true!” That was a boy's voice… and not Rumble or Button’s…
Fatherly Overprotection Rank: six
I did not hesitate to literally kick the door down… where I saw Scootaloo sitting on her bed with Lord Death’s son… “Hey there honey.” I say, slowly walking over to them.
They both looked rather scared, especially Kid… good. “Uhm… Hey dad…” Scoot’s said. “I didn’t expect you to be here.” She spoke nervously.
“I was just walking by when I realized we hadn't talked much. So, why is Death the Kid here?”
“Oh, we were just telling stories about the things we’ve done, right Kid.” She elbowed Kid.
He gulped. “Oh, y-yeah. I w-was telling her about my battle a-against the Kishin a year ago.” He spoke, stuttering so often.
“Oh yeah, your dad told me about that…” I said. “So why are you in my daughter's room… with the door closed…” My face was stern now, sending a visible shiver up Kid’s spine.
“Oh, well I, we, uh…”
“We’re dating dad.” Scootaloo said. “Been for about two weeks…”
Fatherly Overprotection Rank: ???? (GTFO!)
I grabbed Kid by the hair, and had him look me right in the eyes. “So… you’re dating my daughter… how did that happen?”
“I, I helped her fight off a witch she ran into on a visit to Death City! Dad told me to look after he, and I did… we just started talking and we fought in perfect symmetry.”
“Wait, what?”
“Kid has a thing about symmetry.” Scootaloo said. “Kinda annoying, but he’s probably the only guy I will ever meet that can keep things organized.”
I was giving Kid a death glare at this point. “So, is it only her fighting you like about Scoot’s, or is there something more?”
He was shivering. “I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-”
“Dad, Kid and I are fourteen, we can both date.”
Hp: 708/800. 92 damage taken.
“Gah!” I screamed, dropping Kid. “Don’t say that Scootaloo, it hurts your father.” I whine.
“Grow up dad…” She gorand. SHE GROANED AT HER OWN DAD!? “I’m old enough to date boys.”
Hp: 523/800. 186 damage taken.
I fell over rather exaggerated. “Please don’t say those words!” I beg.
“I. Am. Dating. A. Boy.”
Hp: 250/800. 273 damage taken.
DISCORD STOP NARRATING MY HP DAMAGE!
Heck no! This is the most fun I’ve had in a long time!
I sighed. Clearly she isn’t going to listen… then at least met me test this (shiver) boyfriend of hers. “Alright then, I guess you two can *gag* date… but only if I see how Kid here does in a fight.”
Both Kid and Scootaloo looked at each other. “Um, alright?” Kid said.
I opened a DTL. “Good, then let’s see just how long you can last.” I threw Kid though the DTL and walked in. We were in my reflection’s Keyblade Graveyard. Huh, I didn’t clean this one up? My bad.
“Where, where are we?” Kid asked.
“This reflection of the Keyblade Graveyard. Each Keyblade you see around you is a life lost on the ancient Keyblade war.”
He looked around. “This is… this is… THIS IS ALL ASYMMETRICAL!”
I didn’t even know it was physically possible to fall over like anime characters can… but I somehow did it. I shook off that unexpected line and got back up. “This was a battleground, not exactly your standard cemetery.” I summoned Discord and Master Keeper.
Kid Summoned two Starlight Keyblades, and we clashed.
“How did you pull of your Death Cannons move without those Thompson sisters?” I ask Kid as we’re walking down the hall back to Scootaloo.
“That surprised me too.” Kid admitted. “You still went easy on my though, I know you did.”
“Duh, just wanted to scare you, not kill you.”
“Well, thanks for getting over that…. Overprotectiveness…”
“Oh, I’m still gonna look over my daughter, I’m just glad both she, and her… partner, can hold their own.”
“Thank you sir.”
“Still, break her heart, I’ll break your neck.”
I could see another shiver go up his body. “Y-yes sir!”
Well, that was fun. Wonder what will happen next?
“Council member Zeke!” I turned around at that call… Justin?
“Justin, what are you doing here?”
“It’s Eclipse, he’s… His heart is splitting.”
My eyes widened.
Darn it! Back to work.
