[... emet-selch just gives him a flat look. so they have a child and a cat now, do they...
but then he turns his attention back to kaiza.]
I expect whatever comes of being out here in the rain so long will be punishment enough for staying out without any word. And if we take this in, you will be expected to care for it, understood?
And haha, what if its just fun getting scolded? [He laughs as he starts to walk, umbrella above him and the cat - he does offer the other man a curious look at Kaiza's question, though.] Didn't take you for the child rearing type, Emet-Selch. Though I suppose you have been around a lot longer than I have.

[he is NOT dealing with cat messes.]
no subject
Y-Yeah, I got it! I'll take great care of him!
[ He hands the umbrella over to Hansa, who is officially the best. Emet-Selch is second-best. (There is no third.) ]
I didn't know if you'd let me keep him, so...
[ Congrats, Hansa and Emet-Selch (but mostly Hansa) have obtained one (1) cat. ]
no subject
[Hansa just looks happy to have a cat...]
Lets go home before Emet-Selch chews us out any more.
[AREN'T YOU ALSO A PARENT IN THIS SCENARIO]

[he says, as he keeps holding the fabric cover over kaiza...]
Really, at times I feel as if I've two children again.
no subject
[ I hate that Hansa put Kaiza in charge of naming because that means I, Jan, have to come up with a name now. Dang.
He looks like he's about to start running home, when he remembers that Emet-Selch is the one covering him, so after a step or two, he pauses.

Again? You've had kids?

[hansa: lol naming is not my problem]

[is it an empty threat, fuck around and find out.
he pauses slightly as they both ask, though, glancing between them, and finally relents.]
-yes, I have. Two sons, a grandson... and a great-grandson, I believe.
[a slight furrow of his brow, there, as he answers, like he has to focus on those details. he'll keep kaiza covered as they walk.]
no subject
Though Kaiza peers up at Emet-Selch. ]
Wow. You're really old.
no subject
[
hansa internally: is this like a may-december romance parent thing]That's a big family, though. I hope they at least write you cards for Father's Day, Emet-Selch.
no subject
[he's ancient, he isn't going to complain about being called old when he absolutely is? but he will be this way about it.]
But no, I would not expect any of them to write.
no subject
no subject
...Well. Even if your own children don't write you, Kaiza would be happy to write you and make cards for you! Right, Kaiza?
no subject
[don't give him that look, child. kaiza is not being told the truth... he just waves a hand, with a sigh.]
But I suppose you may, if you choose to.
no subject
Yeah, sure. I'll do all that.
[ But speaking of the passage of time... ]
