33 Apocalypse Avenue [mid-morning]

[sith_happened]

A very small boy with a bucket over his head--thanks for that, Friday's toy chest--toddled down the hallway and made his way down the stairs.

Bounce-bounce-bounce.

Rear ends are great for that.

He made his way into the kitchen and leaned up onto his tiptoes to reach the cereal--something bright with incomprehensible writing on the side--and tipped about half of it onto the floor.

Exasperated, he lifted the bucket off of his eyes to see. Bright blue eyes gazed around the room and settled on the telephone.

Ooooh. He could call all of his friends!

Or punch random numbers and leave messages...which is what a four-year-old is much more inclined to do...

[OOC: Open for housemates and friends who know who this is. Radio squirrels--buckethead kid doesn't have a name...]

Too bad Rory was bigger, for once, and she had a pretty good grip on him.

She blew a raspberry on his tummy and laughed at him.

[sith_happened]

"Stop it stopit stopit," he giggled.

Not really meaning it.

"Noooo, you're my prisoner," Rory declared, snagging him around the waist and settling onto the ground for the time being. "I have captured you."

[sith_happened]

"Jailbreak!" he cried, trying to break out of her hug.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory gasped and allowed him to escape. "You're too strong for me!" she said despairingly. "I guess I'll have to eat all my cookies by myself. Come on Vladdie. You can sit with me."

[sith_happened]

That brought him to a screeching halt. "Vladdie'll eat my cookies?" He turned back around and came over to Rory, then sat down on the floor, crunching cereal under his rear. "I'll be good," he promised.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"If you put on shoes and maybe a jacket or something, I'll take you outside," Rory promised, handing over another cookie.

[sith_happened]

He raced over and picked up his bathrobe, then grabbed Rory by the hand and tried to yank her towards the stairs.

"All the boots were too big," he complained.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory stumbled to her feet and followed him. "Vladdie, you stay," she said. "I bet the boots were big. Hmm. Your little toes will be sooooo cold, though."

[sith_happened]

"I'm a big boy and don't need to be carried any more," he told her, opening the door into Vader's room.

It was absolutely bare except for a giant meditation pod by the window and a pair of boots and a black cape in the closet.

The little boy made a face. "This room is booooooring."

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"It is," Rory agreed. "And of course you're a big boy. I wouldn't dream of suggesting otherwise. Those boots are gigantic, though."

[sith_happened]

He was trying them on anyway.

Rather, he was shoving his entire body into one boot.

"I'm wearing a shoe now, Rory!"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

She sighed. "Yes, you are. Hey, Annie? Why don't we maybe stay inside, since you don't have mittens or anything either?"

[sith_happened]

He tipped over with a giggle, then walked back to where Rory was. "Can I play with Vladdie?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

She nodded. "'Cause Vladdie's an inside doggie. You have to stay out of the sunshine."

[sith_happened]

"I remememberererer." He made a face. That word had gotten away from him a little.

"Did you bring a ball, too?" he asked.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Of course," Rory said, producing a ball from her bag and giving a quick whistle.

Vladdie came careening into the room, and Rory handed Anakin the ball.

[sith_happened]

He threw it towards the other side of the room.

For a little kid, he had pretty amazing accuracy.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Vladdie zoomed after it and brought the ball back. He knew this friend! He was little like him but he smelled like Friend With Head Tail who had gone away.

He yipped and dropped the ball at Annie's feet, hovering happily.

[sith_happened]

Annie threw it again with a happy giggle. "Go get it, boy!"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Vladdie launched himsef after the ball and caught it before it hit the ground.

He then flew up to the ceiling, and dropped it back down to Annie from there, so that it bounced a bit.

[sith_happened]

He laughed some more, then pushed it away with his mind without really thinking about what he was doing.

"Again!"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Vladdie flew after the ball again and then flew back over and poked Annie on the nose with his paw, the ball in his mouth.

[sith_happened]

Annie grinned and ran away. "Can't catch me, Vladdie! I'm too fast for youuuuuuuu!"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory leaned against the wall and watched as Vladdie zoomed after Annie, yapping away and letting the ball fall on thr ground.

He did, in fact catch up to Annie, and he was very confused.
