Banana 10 ][ In Person

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

<sub>[ Vegeta's in the kitchen, baby in arm and bottle in hand. He's staring off into space with a deadpanned expression, almost as if the man had only known sleep for a few hours before it was whisked away by the endless needs of a saiyan baby. Had he been the man he was 5 years prior he would have simply left it outside someone else's door. But the Prince, in no right state of mind now, would ever leave an unstable creature in the hands of the unknowing, especially with Frieza, Berter and Zarbon on the loose in the house. The tiny little thing needed so much, and Vegeta could only guess here and there at what it might have wanted, and only sometimes would he get it right.

In the kitchen he sat, feeding the tailed infant from a warmed bottle. He waited for stillness in the bottle that would tell him it was done feeding, only paying it minor glances here and there as if to make sure the baby was still there, wrapped up in a periwinkle blanket in his arm. Still, the little pudgy thing continued to suckle on the bottle, large eyes closed, facial muscles relaxed, and tufts of black hair poking out from the blanket, crowning his forehead with a widow's peak much like his own. Vegeta looked at the little one and pressed his lips together briefly before wriggling the bottle with the nipple still in the baby's mouth. The little peaceful face creased with minor distress and it held on the bottle as if for dear life, whining as it ceased its suckling momentarily. ]</sub>

Alright, alright...

[The noise coming from the hallway was headed right for the kitchen. It was a mix of two different kinds of laughter, one snickering and the other was just outright hiccuping giggles.]

Daaa~

No no, you have to say it twice, like this, Daa Daa, okay? Try again.

Daa!

[Goku and his little bundle of absolute adorable came wandering into the kitchen. "Koji", was sitting on his shoulder with his tail hooked around Goku's neeck.]

Hey 'Geta! Check this out.
Go ahead Koji.

.....Daa!!

Heh, well he did it once, now he's just being silly.

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta only acknowledges your presence with the trailing of his eyes, his nose still pointing in the baby's direction, eyes half-lidded and face completely deadpan. ]}

Hmph.

_{[ The baby stopped suckling and whined, grimacing with discomfort. Vegeta set it against his shoulder, like how Bulma used to do it, and pat it until it burped and relaxed with a mewl. ]}

And?

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

I haven't heard DaDa in years!

[He reaches up, taking Koji off his shoulder as the baby squeals happily and wiggles around in his arms.]

Heh... y'know I never really imagined you to be much of the mommy type Vegeta.
It's cute.

[yeah, he said it was cute DO SOMETHIN ABOUT IT]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta holds up his baby against him protectively, glaring at Kakarot with tired eyes. ]}

I'm not. I'm just trying to keep this little brat quiet. The child means nothing to me.

_{[ You're obviously just seeing things, Karrot. ]}

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

Yeah okay.

[that was sarcasm btw]

So I guess you never gave him a name huh?

[Goku has no care for personal space so he'd gunna lean right in there to get a look at baby. Koji stops his giggling and mimics the same, albeit reaching his little arms out excitedly.]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta snorted, holding his hand over the baby's back and letting the tiny little tail wrap gently around his knuckle. ]}

Why bother? It's not like it's a permanent addition.

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[Aw, don't remind him.]

Well... yeah, I know that... but... you still gotta call him something though.

[Cue in a little giggle and Goku is easily distracted again, smiling and holding his little one up in the air. Koji squeals excitedly and flails his itty bitty arms and legs]

Yeah! He's gotta name him something right? Yes he does! Oh yes he does!

That's why your name is Koji! Isn't it huh? Yes it is! Koo-jii~!

[Cause daddy was hungry when he named his child ♥ yes he was! oh yes he was!]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Baby snuggles against Vegeta and mewls for sleep. Vegeta only snorts and growls at Kakarot. ]}

I don't need to name him.

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[Your grumpy pants attitude cuts into Goku's happy fun time, you know that?]

Aw.... oh wait! Can I name him?!

[Goku still has his own infant held up high as Koji wriggles around, swinging his tail back and forth happily]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ That's the point. Vegeta doesn't like your happy fun time, Karrot. ]}

No!

_{[ Vegeta holds baby away from Karrot protectively. Baby is HIS baby Karrot! And Vegeta reserves the right to not name it D:< ]}

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[meany jerk face D: ]

But c'monnn~

[Goku's whining only causes little Koji to whine too before it evolves into full blown wailing.]

Aw, see? Even Koji thinks that's not fair.
Isn't that right huh? Yeah, Geta's a meany ain't he, yes he is

[The child only calms down a couple little sniffles when Goku starts to cuddle him close. DaddyMode activated.]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Bratty McBrat Brat's Koji's wailing disturbs Vegeta's baby and baby starts to cry, clinging to Vegeta for dear life. ]}

Damnit, Kakarot, can't you make that thing cry somewhere else?

_{[ Vegeta stands up and tries to soothe little baby by stroking its back and tail. ]}

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

Heh, sorry. He's been doing that a lot.
I bet he's hungry! I get upset whenever I don't eat,t hat must be it.

[He smiles, cradling Koji in one arm he goes and opens the fridge to find something for them to snack on. The child's tail fluffs up and wraps around Goku's arm.]

Ohh! This looks good... or how about this huh?
Eww... how long has that been in here...
This looks pretty good too...

Huh... what do babies eat anyway...?

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Baby's still crying, Karrot. Vegeta's kiiiiiiinda busy. He holds up baby away from him up in the air briefly before holding it close again. ]}

Tch--I-I don't know? They eat formula and mush.

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[Maybe he wouldn't be crying as much if his daddy loved him enough to give him a name]

Ick, that sounds gross...

[He already has a small picnic of food on the floor next to the opened fridge, trying to share a chicken leg with Koji sitting in his lap.]

Go aah, like this, see? Aah

[Goku will now demonstrate how to eat foods!]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ >BC ]}

All baby food is gross.

_{[ Baby is soothed now, snuggling against Vegeta and going to sleep. He sits back down with baby resting against him. He stares down at the table, visibly tired. ]}

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[He sits there on the floor, picking off small little bits of food and feeding them to Koji with his finger. Goku notices how quiet it got all of a sudden and looks up towards the table with a small smile.]

Looks like Mommy is tired huh?

[Of course Koji has no idea what he's talking about but nods his head anyway and nibbles the food off Daddy's finger.]

Hey, why not go up and get a little rest huh? You look pretty beat.

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta gives Goku a glare and a snort, rolling his eyes. ]}

Don't call me that. I'm nobody's mother.

_{[ Rest sounded good though. But was Vegeta one to give in to the dummy's suggestion? Not likely. ]}

Hn...

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[That's when a little voice piped in]

Maa~

[Goku can't help but snicker at that.]

I can watch him if you want, it's no big deal. Besides, I bet Koji would love to have someone to play with.

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

You don't play with a newborn, Kakarot. What he needs is sleep and nourishment.

_{[ Vegeta can't help but likely poke little baby as it sleeps. ]}

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

Really? Is that.. all they do?

[He's curious now so Goku as scooted over besides Vegeta's chair as Koji climbs up Daddy's back and peeks over his shoulder to get a little look see too.]

Eat and sleep huh... that actually doesn't sound half bad.

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta rests a hand over baby's back and tail. ]}

And they cry. A lot.

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah.. I kinda figured that one out already.

[Koji crawls over Goku's shoulder and struggles a bit to reach his chubby little arms out towards the sleeping baby.]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta gives Koji a look and stands up carefully. ]}

He belongs in his crib anyhow... maybe now I can get some sleep.

[moar-food-plz.livejournal.com]

[Aaand Koji is just gunna pout and draw back, sorta hiding in Daddy's hair.]

A nap sounds like a good idea.
Even though I keep getting woken up about every hour or so.

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Vegeta sighs softly and holds baby close, looking at him from the corners of his eyes. He looks again to Kakarot before walking past him. ]}

An hour is better than no sleep at all...

[holy-pickle.livejournal.com]

[Well guess who is also in the kitchen?! And for once Vegeta's presence doesn't seem to deter him in his endeavors. In fact... he doesn't seem to notice Vegeta at all.

...Right now he just happens to be looking for the baby the author clearly misplaced.

He looks under the table, in the cabinets, and under Vegeta's chair. Frustrated he stand in the middle of the room, hands on his hips.]

hmmmmm.....

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ At least Dende isn't the screaming baby in question. The last thing Vegeta needs is another youngin' waking up his baby. He does watch Dende curiously while feeding it though. ]}

Lose something?

[holy-pickle.livejournal.com]

The author misplaced something.

[Is it in your boot Vegeta? Surly Namekian eggs could be in you boot. Excuse him while he pulls it off]

Nope. Not in here.

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Well'p, bye-bye boot. ]}

Misplaced what?

_{[ Vegeta never liked that particular boot anyhow. Watch him be a cute mommy and coddle his baby. ]}

[holy-pickle.livejournal.com]

[Dende puts the boot on Vegeta's lap. He doesn't need it now. Next he goes to check out the funny white box, giggling as he opens the door and IT'S ALL SUDDENLY COLD! WHAT AN AMAZING BOX!]

She misplaced my-

[And then he finds what he's looking for and pulls out a carton of eggs!... a carton of really tiny eggs! These must be very small Namekians maybe? Well either way he's as happy as a clam]

I found them!

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Whoa. Since when did marvelous culinary fowl egglets suddenly all belong to Dende. ]}

...I believe those belong to the fridge.

_{[ Baby mews, but is soothed by a second administration of its bottle to its mouth. ]}

[holy-pickle.livejournal.com]

No they're mine! I'm going to take care of them until they hatch!

[all your eggs are belong to him. And your spiffy boot too. He may not like you, but you have some snazzy shoes.]

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ Not mein boot! ]}

Those eggs aren't fertilized, Dende. They will never hatch.

<sub>[ Bursting your bubble? OH YES. CRY DENDE, CRYYYYYY. ]

[ Wait, please don't. ]</sub>

[holy-pickle.livejournal.com]

They will too! Everybody got babies to take care of! These are mine!

[He closes the container so he can gently pick it up in his arms]

You're just jealous because I have more then you!

[saiyanascension.livejournal.com]

_{[ oh dende. dende dende dende. ]}

I'm sure if they were yours then they would have appeared in your room like everyone else's. Perhaps the Author deemed you too young to take care of a baby.

[holy-pickle.livejournal.com]

[Dende puffs his cheeks out in pure little baby green rage]

These are mine! And I'm going to take super good care of them! I'm going to be a good parent!

[unless he drops them on the stairs or something]
