A/N Okay, so I've decided to completely redo this story. I mean full out changing each chapter and possibly actually giving it a plot.
Disclaimer: I don't own Animorphs- who'd'a' thunk, right?
Tobias smiled as he entered his house, coming home from his latest meeting that Microsoft had wanted to have with him. Apparently one of their tech support employees had somehow managed to mess up his project and they wanted his help.
Naturally, they also took the opportunity to attempt to recruit the soft-spoken celebrity yet again. Amused, Tobias had, yet again, made his disinterest in working for them clear.
The company had tried their best to recruit the man anyway- he had barely managed to escape their attempts to butter him up.
All of the good companies- Apple, Microsoft, etc, had been trying to recruit Tobias since he released his first project.
It was understandable, as the RPG had became almost instantly famous, being a game on the Yeerks where you could go through as a customizable character and fight against the monsters. Also, it was released by one of the saviors of the world. That had definitely earned his program some-ifnot all- of its attention.
Tobias frowned as he peeked around the corner into the kitchen. Usually Rachel, and Jared- their four year old son- would've rushed to see him by now. A bit more confused looking around revealed a sandwich with a note on it on the counter.
With a small smile, Tobias picked up the note, tossing his discarded briefcase onto the couch.
"Me and Jared went to the park- feel free to join us, Tobe
-'Ketchup' and 'Broccoli'"
The note spawned a smile onto Tobias' face. The signatures' origins definitely encouraged that smile.
The happy little family had been playing in a furniture box that they'd gotten from ordering a couch about a year prior to the current date. Rachel and Jared had been giggling and hiding in the box, while Tobias was the monster, knocking dramatically against the box and roaring occasionally.
After a little bit of this behavior, Tobias yelled out, "Is that people I smell? I'm so hungry/"
A squeal of excitement came from the box, and Tobias rattled his hands on it. "Mm, I hear some yummy people in this box/"
Another squeal exited the box, along with his son's cry of, "No, no, we're not people/"
Tobias stopped his rattling. "If you're not people, then what are you? Wait, nevermind, it doesn't matter- I'll eat you anyway/" With that, he started making loud eating noises and resumed his rattling.
This caused shrieking and movement in the box, before a youthful voice yelled out, "No you don't wanna eat us/ We're gross/ We're-we're ketchup and- and... broccoli/"
Tobias barely fought back a laugh, smothering his amusement in his hand. "Oh, I see, that is gross. I won't eat you then." With another smothered laugh, Tobias casually had casually walked away, leaving Rachel and Jared free of the danger of being eaten for that day.
A fond smile was on his face as Tobias looked down at the note in his hands. It only took a moment for him to decide to change and join his family in the park.
A/N I also chose the random little memory of Jared being cute from something that my nephew did while me and my sister were playing with him one day.
