Zoooooooooo (Kiddie AU)

[sliceitwithwind]

One elderly Katzu, three small children, and a trip to the zoo.

It's a match made in hell, really. Even Sannish is considering the benefits of leashes by the time they get to the ticket booth.

"Stay together, kittens."

Sannish paid for three. One monkey, one penguin, and one lemur.

Braig, with a put-upon sigh, allowed himself to be leashed as well. He and Dilan gave each other long-suffering looks. This is completely for Aya's sake.

MONKEY ON HER BACK!

There was now a very wiggly Aya trying to figure out the straps. It was even odds for her staying strapped in more than ten minutes. Naturally she'd need a distraction!

Or she could end up utterly distracting herself by playing with Braig's new tail!

[sliceitwithwind]

Braig sighed and handed his leash to Sannish. Dilan sighed and handed his to Braig, then he held his hand out for Aya's leahs.

[mitochondriaaya]

Both Aya's hands were busy wagging Braig's lemur tail! She didn't even notice the leash-end passing thing. "It tickles my nose!!" It was a very ticklish tail.

[sliceitwithwind]

Dilan grabbed Aya's leash on his own, then. Braig shook his head, "Ready to move out, Ayay?"

[mitochondriaaya]

" 'Kay!" She called brightly, bouncing up and down while still holding onto Braig's lemur tail. Hey, she had a tail! Dilan could grab hers too! "I bet they have hot dogs!"

[sliceitwithwind]

"Probably." Dilan agreed, walking with the rest of the group towards the food court. Braig was just glad that Aya seemed to be recovering well.

[mitochondriaaya]

Of course she was recovering fine! They hadn't actually gotten hurt and the boys weren't crying so there was no reason to cry right? RIGHT! She'd be scared and worried if people hadn't been acting normal.

They did indeed have hotdogs. Even better though they had little corndog nuggets they called lion bites! That was, naturally, AWESOME.

[sliceitwithwind]

Lion bites for Aya, then, and a burger with everything for Braig. Sannish and Dilan looked at each other, then got several rare burgers with tomato. Each.

It's been a stressful day.

[mitochondriaaya]

Well, Lion Bites and then french fries, and then bits of salad...there wasn't a single person at the table that didn't have a crazy metabolism and it showed in the number of empty plates and bowls they racked up. Of course given the stresses of the day and a full belly Aya ended up sagging against Braig in the booth and...passing out.

Yep, the six year old was out like a light. She'd apologize later for being a baby or something.

[sliceitwithwind]

Braig pulled the sleeping six year old into his lap and stroked her back gently. Dilan took his and Braig's leashes off and leaned against Sannish.

"We should probably go home." Dilan said softly, "We can go out to dinner after Ayay wakes up."
