Tuesday DE: Tea time

[bjornwilde]

Happy Valentine's Day for anyone who celebrates and sympathies for those who don't.

I could do a love topic but I have a better idea. If your pup sees a child alone how likely are they to step in as a proxy parent? Does the child merely need to exist or do they need to be in trouble of some sort first? Does age matter?

Or do they just ignore the situation?

WWX: A child alone? No there isn't. Wei Wuxian has adopted this child. He has fed it, given it attention, taught it all sorts of useful things, taught it (some) manners, and planted it in a radish field. Look at him. He's the parent now.

Klaus: Wants zero percent things to do with children, and this is probably best for everyone involved. I mean, if there's like, an actualfax baby left alone in an alley or something he'd take it to a drop-off point or something, because he's not a monster, but... otherwise, no. Hell no.

Cecil: At this point in his canon, he... eeeeh, likes kids? He guesses? He doesn't necessarily want one of his own right now, but other peoples' are fine. He loves his niece, of course, and the girl scouts and book club kids are pretty awesome, and of course the boy scouts are great, he was one once.

Jon: No. No, he thinks not.

Ahsoka absolutely will take the child under her wing but it's less parentage and more the right thing to do. She will be looking for a responsible adult.

Sabine is much the same and acts more as an older sister.

Jess absolutely adopts the poor child and will claim she's the grumpy aunt if asked.

Viv is much like Sabine. She will help the child but not get attached.

Ben tries his best to get Klaus to help. Hey it's hard to help when you're a ghost.

Wen Qing absolutely adopts said child and likely struggles with sharing parental responsibilities with WWX.
