Ever close your eyes, and think about what could've been..
Could've been.
Hot is a relative term. All Paddy sees in himself is a bunch of hideous scars and an ugly nose stuck to his grey face. And he saw no colour in himself, just washed out and faded. One of the reasons he never wore really bright clothes was because they seemed OTT on him. So Patrick always made his clothes faded and worn, not to mention it gave him a rugged appearance, that was always accidental, but it still seemed to cause women to flock to him. Which was bad. Because then they usually tried to touch him. Rosa and Poppy and Zoey are prime examples of this. They find him cute or hot or adorable or some other describing word, and feel the need to glomp and/or hug and/or touch him in anyway shape or form.
He blinks grey eyes at her as she laughs, then smiles at her explanation.
Yeah, it is kinda funny isn’t it. Erm…this is Lollipop. She’s a Sabre Tooth now, instead of a tigress. I managed to change her. And…er…as you can see, I have eternal youth…and immortality. And electrical manipulation. So…erm…
He became flustered again, unsure of the odd butterflies in his stomach, wondering if the kid was kicking again.
Lolli’s golden eyes and large head turns and looks down at Othello as it runs at her and clambers up her leg. She blinks, and Patrick aims a swipe at her ehad.
No Lolli. You ate not to long ago.
I wasn’t even thinking of it! Anyway, he’s not even a mouthful.
She huffed haughtily, and Patrick rolled his eyes, resting his free hand on her flicking tail. He watched the girl flump on the ground, and followed suit. Though his flump was slower and more painful. But when he’d finally gotten to the ground, the Sabre Tooth flowed down beside him, wrapped her large body around him and the child, allowing Angel to try and chase after it. Patrick watches her, feeling those silly butterflies, finding himself content and…happy…happy after so long. She spoke, and he shrugged a bit. Her second question caused the boy to pause, tilting his ehad, then looking from Zoey, to Lolli, then back to Zoey.
Erm…where do I start?
He ruffled his black hair before sighing.
Too much happened. Mallos got locked away, Aura got bought back to life, but lost her divinity, and now Mallos has found a way to get out of his cage. And when each rat goes through the portal, another curse is set on Shaman. The first was Falcon Point, which was actually a volcano, erupting, the second was familiars going wild again, and loosing their connection with their fairy, hell Lollipop nearly ate me. And the third…is this flood. We’re on this island, nearly starving for food and going insane.
He sighed, shaking his head, before looking up and smiling.
But life’s not all bad, I’ve got a cute son and another kid on the way.
He cringed slightly, before smiling again. Yeah, life wasn’t that bad was it?
