PruNor: Duck Tales

Lukas and Gilbert were strolling through the park, their fingers intertwined easily. They were strolling near the pond when Gilbert saw something.

"Look!" Gilbert said. "A nest."

Gilbert let go of Lukas's hand to go nearer.

"Be careful," Lukas said. "I'm not going to be attacked by a duck because of you."

Gilbert ignored him and crouched down next to the nest.

"This is awesome," Gilbert said, looking around. "I wonder where the mother is."

"Gilbert, come on," Lukas said.

"Do you think something happened to her?" Gilbert asked, ignoring Lukas. "I mean, she should be here. So why…?"

"Gilbert…"

"I know!" Gilbert said, standing up and turning round to face Lukas. "Let's take the nest back, and I'll be the awesome mom."

Lukas stared at Gilbert as though he was crazy.

"We are not taking the nest with us," Lukas said.

Lukas had forgotten just how stubborn Gilbert could be. Which was why he was sitting at the dining room table, staring at the eggs in their new nest.

Gilbert had placed a heating pad between two hoodies, and the top hoodie was serving as a nest. It had even been shaped into one.

Lukas was now alone with the eggs, since Gilbert had to go to the pet store to ask more about caring for ducklings. And Lukas felt that he had better things to do than watch the eggs, as Gilbert had asked.

And when he started to hear cracking sounds, he knew that he was in trouble.

When Gilbert returned, it was to find an annoyed Norwegian in the living room, a bunch of ducklings surrounding him. Gilbert whined when he saw them.

"Aw, I wanted to be their mommy," Gilbert pouted.

"Then take them," Lukas said.

"Can't. They imprinted on you. You're their mommy now. Man, I'm so jealous."

Lukas narrowed his eyes.

"For the record, I completely blame you," Lukas said.

The prompt was: 'Imagine persons A and B find a nest of duck eggs in the park, and with no mother around, person A insists on taking it home and is super excited because they're gonna be a mom! Only, when the eggs hatch, they're not there, and the ducklings end up imprinting on person B, who is much less enthused. The ducklings follow person B around and they're generally annoyed with it, while person A is exceedingly jealous.'

And as I was writing this, all I could think about was the Tom and Jerry episode where the duckling imprinted on Tom. "I love my mommy, and my mommy loves me. I have the best mommy in the world."

And this week I had a long conversation with one of my classmates who is also a Hetalian and who is, unfortunately, a vanilla shipper. The look of horror on her face when I listed some of the requests… Although she had to admit that some of them could work, like NorCan or PruDen. But I will try to bring her to the dark side, where we have cookies and endless new possibilities. And it was funny. When I mentioned 'Spamania' she was 'no, no… yes, yes…'. And now you know another pairing I'll be posting sometime. Actually, I've officially received a hundred pairing requests. We're halfway, and I have a feeling that more will come soon.
