Mother's Day? Waz that?

Shippo blinked as all the 'children' hugged their mothers and gave them offerings…why would they give their own mothers offerings? He was young but he knew that the only time a male gave a female an offering was if he wanted to court her…or if she was already with its child.

Did these humans want to mate their mothers? He scrunched up his face in disgust, ewwwww. Humans were weird and freaky…then again he could be wrong. The young females were giving offers as well, not to their fathers but their mothers as well…what was going on here? He shook his head and made up his mind, he knew just who to ask! He quickly ran from his spot next to Kagome and was off like a race car.

Kagome shook her head as she watched Shippo race off, he was most likely going to go bug Toothless. Toothless had been MIA all day, as had Hiccup, then again it was mother's day and she knew he along with a few other people were at the graveyard paying their respects to their fallen mothers. Her face fell, she too had lost her mother when she was younger, yet she had no grave to worship, that was back there…and she was not going back there ever again. No, she would stay here and keep her memories of her mother, of all her family, with her.

Shippo grinned as he bounded over the many obstacles that were in his way, getting many amused and half angered shouts from said obstacles. He paused, sitting atop Kagome's male's father's head and scented the air, scenting for Toothless's scent. He epped as he was yanked up in the air by his tail. He crooned cutely as he looked at the upside down face of the big scary human.

Stoick the Vast sighed as he looked at the newest 'terror' of the village, the little tyke was always up to something and today was probably the same, even so they had just gotten back from the grave and he was in no mood for this little one's shenanigans.

"Look here you little lizard…I want you to be good today…do I make myself clear." Shippo gurgled something, something he thought was a yes and nodded, letting go of the little brats tail and let him bound off. Even so the little brat was going in the wrong direction so he, feeling nice, cupped his hands and yelled after the little dragonling.

"Oi! The over grown lizard is in the fields! South side!" Shippo grinned and landed on the big human's helmet for a second, leaning over to chirp in his face as thanks and was off again. It wasn't that hard to find his big brother and once he did he pounced on the lounging Toothless.

Toothless let out a weary sigh as Shippo pounced on him, he was not in a good mood, he had been order by His human's father to stay away from His human today and as much as he loathed the idea he honored his wish and knew that today was a hard day for both of them and had agreed, hence he was here pouting.

Shippo oblivious to Toothless's ire quickly sat on his chest and chirped out his question in a way only a small curious child could. After he was done he watched as Toothless made a funny face. He looked like a stunned sheep caught in the sight of a dragon. It was funny.

Toothless blinked…wha…huh…WHAT? Did this hatchling just ask if the human children wanted to mate with their own mothers? WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THIS HATCHLING? What was his human's woman teaching him?

He quickly rumbled out his reply, not only telling the hatchling he was wrong but explaining the human concept of 'mother's day', after which he sat back and looked at him waiting to see if the hatchling grasped the foreign concept.

Shippo blinked, OH! Okay that made a lot more sense then what he had originally thought but…still…they were giving their mothers gifts for doing what they were supposed to? Odd…then again…maybe it was a good idea.

An image of Kagome mama flashed through his mind's eye. Kagome wasn't his real mother…yet she took care of him like he was her own…she didn't have to take care of him, to love him and neither did the human mothers have to do the same to their children…hmm….

Toothless watched as Shippo seemed to be mull something over, looking as if he was finally understanding the reason for living…what was this little tyke planning now?

He blinked as Shippo nodded a grand smile on his face and grabbed a mouth full of flowers before bounding, almost skipping, his way back towards Kagome's house. He chuckled as he laid back down on the ground, that little shit sure knew how to act cute when he wanted to…he was a cute little shit.
