Dudley chuckled as his kids were being rambunctious with their cousins but knew that they were having fun seeing it was Sprijg and Sneaker was seeijgbJanice watering flowers with Jane, June and Sora makimg her curious makimg Janice chuckle, knowing she was curious.
"We're growing sunflowers, as our Mommy showed us how to grow them plus it's our Earth Day project remember?" Sora said as Sneaker sighed remembered she had to do an Earth Day project so she was having trouble coming up with a project.
Plus her other cousins had their own projects like potato clocks Amomg other things making the little thief annoyed seeing Constantine wonder why his little thief was upset listening to her explain.
"Whoa you'll think of something, as you're smart-" he said seeing Hector not himself but laying eggs surprising them giving Sneaker a great idea
"Daddy, I thinkmHector isn't a boy if he laid eggs from what we know about turtles." Sneaker said helping her dad pick up the eggs counting as they went making her cousins wonder what was going on, why she was exvited hearing her explain makimg Yaga curious.
"Ooh, baby turtles are gonna hatch right?" she asked as Sneaker nodded using this for her Earth Day project makimg Ketmit grin but Constantine quiet knowing how sometimes because of his Aspergers, Constantine hated surprises and learning that his beloved pet had laid eggs was a big one.
"Sneaker, look after the eggs and Yaga while I talk to your dad okay?" Kermit said as Sneaker nodded guessing Hector beingba Mom scared her dad but she was excited along with her cousins.
Constantine was drinking coffee but sighing because this was big news feeling his webbed hands shake in anxiety seeing Kermit which made him frown because he didn't need this right now
"It's okay to be freaked out, since Hector is important to you but you're gonna make a great uncle to her babies and Sneaker and Yaga good sisters since they love taking care of Hector." Kermit said seeing Constantine nod knowing this was a good thing, nothing to be scared of.
"I know, but just hoping it works out, you know?" Constantine said.
Later that early evening, Sneaker was working on her Earth Day project in her room seeing Hector enter since like her dad, she coukd talk to their family pet.
"Are your eggs Ojay, since daddy is taking care of them?" Sneaker asked.
"Yes, but he's just a little scared because he doesn't take surprises well but you seem excited." Hevtor said seeing her nod.
"Yep, I'm using it for Earth Day at school but daddy woukdn't let me bring the eggs to school because he thinks it's a bad idea." Sneaker said.
"Not just that, he wants them to imprint on him when they hatch, like me when he hatched my egg." Hector said impressing the little thief.
"Nope, but I wanna hear." Sneaker said sitting on the floor beside the pet turtle.
"Your dad found my egg on the beach one day when he was younger than you but kept my egg in that pouch bag he wears on his back which kept me warm and that night while Toph was gone, he was talking to me through the egg and that's when I hatched becoming his friend.
We also have secret talks like what we're doing right now, plus we still do it but maybe you, Yaga and my hatch
ings will be friends." Hevtor explained making Sneaker smile.
"What does imprint mean, a Hector?" she asked.
"It means when a baby is born or a baby bird or turtle hatches, it emotionally bonds with the first thing it sees which is imprinting." Hevtor said.
"Like Gloria Stefan with Uncle Dudley since he was the first thing she saw at the studio so she thinks he's her dad which is good but spasibo ad you gave me an idea for my report." Sneaker said typing on her tablet making Constantine curious
