Chapter 6.5:

Omake #1: Drunk Dad is Dumb Dad (takes place a month before Orochimaru is hatched)

"Kaa-chan, why Dōsukēru name be Dōsukēru when she very blue?"

Kaa-chan shot my tou-chan a glare and he laughed nervously, hugging the beautiful purple egg that housed my future sibling to his chest, "you know, I think I might need a bit of fresh air." Then he speed walked away without a single hitch to jostle the egg, jumped up the ledge that led to outside the nursery, and was pretty much chased out of the chamber by muffled sniggering.

My very mature kaa-chan lifted a dainty brow at the surrounding serpents, before losing her composure and loudly guffawed at the laughing serpents. Yeah, really mature…

I looked up at the violet haired women, "tell!" I demanded. Manners will be used later on, when someone actually tries a bit harder to teach them to me.

"Don't forget to say please," Manda hummed from his position, curled around our little family. Never mind, bribery is real in this world.

Looks like manners shall return to little ol' me, "pwease?"

Even though the pronunciation was a bit off, puppy eyes in the face of a toddler cannot be denied. So my kaa-chan relented with a sigh, and told me the story of how tou-chan was just a tiny bit drunk before my hatching. When I get older, He will never be able to live this down.

"Once upon a time, before you were hatched," my kaa-chan began.

One of the serpents muffled whispering reached my not-so-sensitive ears, "or rather, right before she was hatched."

"Anyways," my kaa-chan said loudly, "it was the day before your hatchday and since your chakra was rather agitated, we had assumed that you would hatch two days after, somewhat proven by the previous data gathered by the rest of the clan. Since we had a gist of the timeframe, and your tou-chan already had naming rights to Dō-chan-"

"Why?" I wondered out loud and interrupting her flow, the word having been taught to me by Manda as revenge against my parents. Too bad he became the target most of the time.

Kaa-chan huffed out, not exactly amused, but not too angry either. However, I daresay that she looked a tad bit embarrassed. "Your tou-chan…" I could not catch the rest of her words.

"Pardon?" Inquired Dōsukēru, ever the polite one (when she wasn't being all hissy-hissy look imma snake that can bite your face off)

"He won when we flipped a ryo."

What.

My expression must've expressed my sentiments quite clearly, or perhaps it was because Dōsukēru had dropped her jaw (as a snake, her jaw can drop pretty far), so my dear mother who lost her naming rights tossing a goddamn coin sighed.

She quickly tried to shift the subject back onto track, or at least as on track as one of our conversations can get, which unfortunately – is not very.

But before she can get a single word out, Dōsukēru reclaimed her lower jawbone from its position on my collarbone and demanded why she was named by my parents, and not Manda, or her parents, something that also didn't make much sense as kids are generally named by their parents..

Unfortunately, kaa-chan just waved it off as "clan reasons", and that we're currently too young to understand. At least she tacked on the tidbit that apparently I was named by Manda, and my future little sib will also be named Manda also.

Then, a strange look also came over my kaa-chan's eyes, and she mumbled to herself in a voice too low for me to hear, oh how I rue my random selective hearing! In the end, however, I did manage to snag a name from that garbled mess. Looks like Takeshi is a name I'll be looking out for.

She shook herself out of her thoughts, smiled at us, and chirped out (faux)cheerfully, "your idiotic tou-chan decided to drink with your aunt and some of the others who could be dragged out of their labs the night before you were hatched. I would've gone too, had my amazing motherly instincts not screamed at me that I would regret it," here she sniffed with indignation, "praise kami I stayed, otherwise no one would've been able to drag your tou-chan over since Manda would've been literal overkill."

That still doesn't tell me why Dōsukēru is named what she's named!

Kaa-chan, ever so oblivious to my internal screaming, mused out loud that it doesn't matter how impressive the removal of blood is from clothing or whatever because compared to a hatching, everything else is insignificant to a parent. But being able to remove dried blood with only water and chakra in under three minutes is quite impressive, if you ask me, considering all the trouble it is (was) to get bloodstains out of clothing.

But, that's off topic. Hence me pointing at the blue snake coiled around my shoulders. "Kaa-chan, whyy?" I demanded whilst waving my other incredibly stubby arm in her face.

She cleared her throat, not at all abashed that she had fallen off topic to the abyss of randomness again.

"After your tou-chan was dragged home half-conscious with what will amount to a dreadful hangover," (how does she expect me to know what a hangover is?) "he decided to go to his lab and cook up a concoction that could hold off the worst of it. Unfortunately at the time, he was messing around with copious amounts of solutions that contained copper." When I tilted my head to silently question how copper had anything to do with blue like a normal two year old (a pain considering chemistry was one of my strongest subjects when I was still… somewhere else), she hastily tacked on "most solutions that contain copper ions," (what the hell women), "err...ions are one of the types of very small particles that makes up our world and consists of protons, probably neutrons, and a number of electrons unequal to the protons?" You know what? I give up on this life.

"Anyways," thoroughly flustered, she bulldozed onwards and ignored the further handicaps of explaining science. "Copper as an ion in a solution is generally blue, and various different shades of it depending on the other elements or compounds present. Coincidentally, your kaa-chan, tou-chan and Manda-sama," the presumed 'sama' facefaulted in his unique manner before slithering away, muttering about how painful this ordeal of kaa-chan trying to tell a story was. After shooting her serpentine partner a poisonous glare, she continued where she left off, "were all reverse summoned to the nursery to witness your hatchings right after your drunk and therefore dumb tou-chan stared at, in his words, 'so many pretty blue waters'. Then when he associated blue with copper in his usually brilliant brain, he decided to name Dōsukēru what first popped up in his mind. How he managed to get through the entire ceremony without falling on his a–hind quarters will never be known, but since names announced in sacred ceremonies are 'sacred', Dōsukēru's name stayed.

"The end."

Kaa-chan seemed rather proud to have gotten through her story/explanation, but I wasn't impressed.

Neither was Dōsukēru for that matter, and one can only wonder who she'll blow up on.

As long as it wasn't me, I will be fine. After all, copper sulfate is a rather beautiful blue colour, no?


A/N:

There are four reasons that this is a short omake a week ahead of time.

First, Second, and Third reasons being that:

This fic has passed 25 reviews, 100 follows, and 50 favourites! Thanks for the support everyone, I love ya all!

Fourth reason is that I'll be going on a trip next week (and no wifi, *sobs*), therefore any updates will be postponed for a bit, sorry!

If there's any questions you want answered/errors you want to point out, you can ask on tumblr (I'm morningwing), or review, or pm.

Random fact: Kinme means 'gold eye' in Japanese (or something)
