Shoot.
“That is better.” Daddy patted me on the head then took the ball and put it on the ship. “Scientific vessels are important to society and should be the most up to date. We shall use our imaginations. I am pretending there is a large mechanical lift to safely introduce the submarine to the ocean below.”
He gave me a look that made me sigh when I reached for the boat. “There is no man overboard for scientists.”
Aww.
“Yes, Daddy.” Nodding, I made the sounds for the big arm that would plunk it in the ocean. “Down he goes. Safely. And nicely. And no man overboard.”
Just a big monster waiting down below.
He was going to be scary and cute and keep his special friend scientist all safe away from everything so he could kiss him.
It was going to be so much fun…once I figured out how to explain nice friendly kissing to Daddy.
****
“And they lived happily ever after.” Yes, that was good. He couldn’t argue with fairy tales. They were always nice and innocent and happy. “With lots of babies.”
Daddy cocked his head. “I do not think scientific curiosity works in that manner, my little human.”
I shrugged. “You were curious about me, Daddy. And you guys were curious about humans.”
Daddy made a thinking sound as he picked up the washcloth again. “This requires more thought.”
He kept looking at the island, a small floating plate, and frowning. “Your definition of consent is also highly questionable.”
Daddy didn’t seem to understand pretend.
“I have more gravy, Daddy.” Yep, it was time for drastic measures. “I’m sticky.”
I had to save my new friends, so I would distract Daddy so they could kiss and make babies.
Lots and lots of babies.
But Daddy wasn’t a Kraken so no babies here.
No little babies in the tub…just little me in the tub.
But as Daddy ran the washcloth over my arms and down my chest, I pushed out my tummy. Daddy was so smart he knew he had to sigh and shake his head right away. “We have had the discussion on human anatomy, my little human Dane.”
“But I’d look very cute with Kraken babies in my tummy.” I lost my Kraken belly when Daddy tickled me.
When I giggled and wiggled, he kept me safe and stuck and chased away the last of the gravy. “I find you to be highly attractive in all forms, my little human.”
“Thank you, Daddy.” I tried to throw my arms around him and give him a big hug but I was still stuck. “I’m gonna hug you when I’m free, Daddy.”
Daddy sat up straighter and looked around. “Thank you for the warning, my little human.”
He was so silly, he covered himself in a towel. “Now we are ready to remove you from the water. You are starting to wrinkle.”
Picking up my hand, he turned it over and frowned at my fingers like they’d been naughty. “For a species that enjoys water to such an extent, your anatomy was not designed to live in it for any period of time.”
I shrugged.
Humans were fun.
Bodies were weird.
That was why we needed Daddies.
“But we have to save…the scientists on the boat.” Yes, we’d lost them somewhere but they probably needed help too. “I—”
I looked down as the water started to disappear. “Oh, Daddy.”
Daddy’d been sneaky, and somehow, he’d already unplugged the tub. “We have numerous additional steps in our evening routine, my little human. You have already yawned three times.”
Ugh.
My own yawns tattled on me.
It wasn’t fair.
“I have to—” Before I could figure out what I had to do, Daddy picked me up and wrapped me in a towel. “Daddy…”
He looked like he was going to laugh. “Dane…”
“No, Daddy.” Shaking my head as he stood up and started to dry me off, I sighed. “I’m your little human or your little human Dane. Or maybe your little Dane?”
He knew I was right because he nodded right away as he carried me over to the sink. “I was being facetious. However, my little Dane does have a pleasing sound to the moniker.”
Daddy started brushing my teeth before I could tell him I liked it when he was silly and that I liked my new name…and he even distracted me after I was all clean so I couldn’t tell him then either.
He was very sneaky.
Picking me up again, he kept me wrapped in my towel as he carried me to the playroom. “The rest of our evening shall consist of finding you appropriate clothing, watching a cartoon program while you have a bottle, and that will be followed by bedtime.”
A bottle?
I wiggled and snuggled against Daddy. “My bottles are in the kitchen, Daddy. I… They…”
Hmm.
“They help you to regress to a younger state of mind so that you can enjoy submitting more completely.” He ran his tentacle over my back and held me tighter. “I have read up on the fascinating phenomenon and I will provide you the appropriate framework with which to submit.”
