AN: Kind of felt like rewriting one of my short fics. Yeah I know I'm repetitive and it seems like I'm writing about the same thing, but I wanna know if people would rather have an ending with Nora as a fly or Linnie as a fly. I know Linnie's is canon but I wanted to know where people's interests lie. Hell, maybe they both deserve it? What do u think?
Nora sipped on her beer as she watched Linnie change Cosmo's diaper, his little feet kicking in the air as the baby continued to giggle.
"Linnie! Will you hurry up, already! Let's just get this training shit over with before the game comes on! You knew I didn't have all fucking day with this shit!"
"Nora please, I'm changing him as fast as I can, b-but this is an important moment for him! Please honey, 30 minutes of helping him fly, that's all I ask.", Linnie said, finally putting on Cosmo's clean diaper, "There you are sweetheart. There you go, yes! You're all better now! Yes you are! Awww…."
"Linnie stop with the baby talk already! You know how annoying that is! Seriously, everything's in one er and out the other, isn't it! Always so fucking concerned with your feelings instead of others."
"Alright alright Nora. I'm sorry. I know. Come on now, let's head outside then.", Linnie carried Cosmo outside while Nora followed, though an unamused look still rested on her face. She would rather be anywhere else instead of wasting her time of another child she didn't want after the condom broke, but Linnie had promised her that he and Cosmo would leave for the day tomorrow if she just complied. As she waiting for Linnie to put Cosmo down however, she noticed that Linnie's wand was tucked away in his black pants pockets; Cosmo's tiny hands grasping at it.
"Oh! Oh my…uhm…honey? Can you give daddy back his wand please?", Linnie asked as gently as he could, grasping the wand gently in his hand. But as he tugged on the wand stem, Cosmo grunted, keeping his hands on the wand as he tried tugging it away from his father, "Please sweetie, Daddy needs his wand. It's just not safe for someone your age."
"What the hell's going on over there?", Nora growled as she made her way over, "Don't you realize the game's on in 25 minutes. You're acting like I have all fucking day!"
"Sorry dear..uhm…", Linnie sighed as he let go of the wand, finding his efforts fruitless. He backed up until they were about 10-15 feet away from Cosmo, before smiling and kneeling down, in hopes to both train his flight and try to get his wand back, "Come on Cosmo, fly to Daddy!"
Cosmo wasn't paying much attention. He was more interested as to how the star was glowing, waving it around like it was some sort of rattle, yellow flashed shooting out all over the neighborhood. He shot a streetlamp that came crashing down, and he accidentally shrunk some women flying out of the bar; Linnie's sister Daisy being one of them.
"Eek! I-I'm sorry Daisy! Here Cosmo, please give Daddy his wand back.", Linnie flew over to take the wand a bit more firmly, though he had to dodge some of the flashed himself. He grabbed the wand firmly and gently to try and take it from him, without hurting him. Though as Linnie felt Cosmo's grasp loosen, he heard Cosmos start to cry, "Oh honey…please, I need to fix your Aunt. Sweetie please.."
"Oh for fuck's sake!", Nora stormed over to the side and snatched the wand from Cosmo, making his cries erupt as Nora zapped Daisy, making her disappear to an unknown location. "Goddamnit Cosmo. When your father says give him the wand, it means give him the fucking wand! What part of that don't you understand!"
"Nora please, he's just a baby.", Linnie squeaking, holding and rocking Cosmo to calm him down. Out of anger, Nora slammed the wand on the ground, forcing the star to glow once more.
"That's no excuse! See, this is what's wrong with these damn kids! They just don't know how to appreciate their parents."
"Nora.."
"And no, I'm not gonna give him a pass just because he's some stupid ass baby. He needs to learn some damn respect."
"Honey please I.."
"SHUT UP! I didn't ask you to fucking spea-"
All of the sudden, another flash of light hit; Cosmo now finding himself with one of his parents, and a mysterious fly in the other's place.
