"Daddy!" a five year old Tesla Magnets screamed at the top of her lungs.
A rather bedraggled looking Gauss Magnets came into the room, his red PET at his side. "Yes? What is it, honey?" he asked in a polite restrained voice.
"I wanna play!" she said loudly.
"Sweetie, it's raining and daddy was work to do, why don't you play with your toys for awhile then daddy will take you out for ice cream," he said.
"But I wanna play, NOW!" she screeched, stamping her foot on the ground.
"Shh, dear, or you'll wake up mommy," he said.
Tesla stopped her tantrum but kept a cross look on her face. "I wanna play, you never play with me," she sulked.
"Ah, I play with you!" said Gauss quickly.
"Can you remember the lat time you played with me?" she asked incuriously.
Gauss looked flustered, "I well…"
Magnetman chuckled, "You're loosing the battle," he said.
Tesla heard the voice, "Who said that?" she asked.
Gauss breathed a sigh of relief, "That's just daddy's PET dear," he said.
"PET?" she asked.
Gauss nodded and pulled the rather bulky looking piece of plastic out of his coat pocket. "Yes, my net navi, Magnetman lives in this PET," he explained, showing to her.
Tesla gaped at Magnetman. "Cool," she breathed.
"I would hope so," Magnetman snorted.
Tesla squealed with delight, "He can talk!" she said.
"Yes, navis can talk, walk, learn and do almost anything humans can, except eat," he said.
"Wow," she said. "Can I have a navi?"
"Maybe when you're older," he said in a fatherly voice.
Amazingly she didn't argue, but instead watched the PET with a watchful eye. Someday, Magnetman would be hers. Someday.
