HES JUST A BABY…..

⠀ ⠀ "i know you'll never forgive me" ⠀

...am I having a stroke?

You were mistaken. My brain has not rotten.

Perhaps they are practising hiding... shall we try and find them, nephew?

*chuckles* That seems harmless enough... and may encourage them to hide better, and thus improve their skills! You are a great sensei's assistant.

Of course I can. ...Lloyd? Remember, everyone needs help sometimes. Thank you for asking. Wait... Do you happen to have water balloons on hand, young man?

[He really shouldn't encourage this, but... he couldn't help but laugh a little.] I am sure it must have been. But perhaps in future you should keep it to training exercises such as this one, alright?

No, they may not. But they may be stressful. And everyone should feel safe in their own home. And water can damage some things. Perhaps keep it to outside.

//really need wu to come back so he can interact with Lloyd's students anD THE FINDERS... the interactions he's had with kids have been so sweet 🫶 I think he always wanted to have a family... things just didn't work out that way. ....until he found the ninja :)

Thank you, Lloyd. [He smiled, and held out his hand, his pinky finger sticking out.] Do children still do this? [He laughed.]

😰

[Wu smiled, doing the same. It felt a little silly, but he remembered how serious these had felt. Some things seemingly do not change with the passing of centuries.] Of course. It's the most sacred of promises. Now, why don't we go and fill these up?

[Wu smiled; he remembered being that small. He was still relatively short, but at least he could reach things now. He brought over a chair for Lloyd to stand on.] Here you are, nephew. This might be safer.

Yes, you could have. Bit this will allow you to be more steady, and make less of a mess - and most importantly, you're less likely to get hurt.

//adoption runs deep in this family

//wu is curious to know about the workings of his nindroid family but he's worried about coming off as rude :(
