As proud as he can be~

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

[This Daddy is holding a bunch of thin ribbons in his teeth as he works on tying off a bunch of balloons in this cheerfully decorated room. The theme for his son's 3rd (and 17th) birthday is cute animals! And he's got a bit of a petting zoo off to one side of the room (sorry Apricot, Bawk and Poco). So come get yourself a funny party hat, a slice of cake, and say hello to the birthday boys though the older one might be trying to hide.]

You never know. He already tried to eat a balloon.

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

Nah, he just likes popping them.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

That's worse! It might scare the kids!

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

[Look at him rolling his eyes before he looks to Shredder.]

No scaring any of the anklebiters, alright?

[Shredder somehow looks offended at the very idea.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

If you're good, Shredder, I'll let you eat all the wrapping paper. It's shiny.

[The raptor hisses at Ri, feathers ruffling. Isi just snorts and pats him.]

He'll be good, don't worry.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

Excellent. Why don't you set him up in a free corner while I finish with these balloons? Then I'll let you sneak a few treats before the party starts.

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[He'll lead Shredder off to a corner then, speaking to him quietly.]

*Ri might be going a bit overboard with the balloons but... it's a party, right?*

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

[Indeed. He won't say anything about them, at least.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*balloons EVERYWHERE but Ri looks pretty proud of himself as he admires everything*

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

[If Ri's happy with it, he's definitely not going to say anything.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

Think it looks good, Isi?

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

Looks just fine, Ri.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*he's going to clap a hand on your shoulder*

You feeling up to leading the dinosaur rides for a bunch of kids? They're a handful.

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

...I could give it a try. I doubt Shredder would appreciate me just leaving him here, either way.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

You should wear a party hat. Maybe Shredder should too. It would be festive!

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

I don't think Shredder would cooperate with a hat.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

Not even a cool very dinosaur-ish hat?

... they're paper.

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

...it wouldn't even be on his head for five minutes.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

Can't you make him not eat it for a little bit?

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

Sure, for like... half a minute, maybe. It would be like forcing a dog to keep a treat on its head for longer than the... couple seconds that would usually be done for that kind of trick.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

... lame. You've got the one dinosaur that can't do tricks.

[craggyshores.livejournal.com]

Dinosaurs don't do tricks, Ri.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

Sure they do. Just not normal tricks like sitting or laying down. They mostly go "grrrrr!"

*yes, he did hold his hands up to his chest and wiggle them around, imitating the stumpy arms of a T-rex*
