Broken Little Pieces

[brokenverse]

Matt considered his questions, his expressions odd on Collars’ face.

"It’s hard, ‘cause I do feel like i’m a part of this family, and that’s ‘cause they made me welcomed as part of it as soon as I got here but- I wasn’t around for some really important stuff.  For the stuff that’s really bound the rest of this house together. A lot of stories that aren’t really mine to tell."

He gave a tiny shrug and after a short silence

"Our Peter did try to kill himself.”

[freakshowrabbit]

Wolfy was quiet too, before he responded in a low voice.

"And our Steve is still trying to kill himself.  Have you actually gotten him to eat anything?  Or are you eating it all for him?  Just because it’s you in there, doesn’t mean Steve is going to be any better when he’s back."  Not after losing legs all over again, and this time, wings too.

"I’m sorry about your Peter.  All I can see is mine, thinking of him trying to hurt himself.  Mine’s just a kid, and it’s breaking my heart thinking of it.  Yours, he’s older.  But he probably feels like the kid of the family, right?  I don’t even want to imagine it.”

[brokenverse]

"I have been taking advantage of that, doing the work for him. But he has been trying. Or I think he has been - it seems like he has." there's worry in his tone, Matt's thoughts going the same way as Wolfy's. He was glad Collars got some time to be whole again in his body but he was so scared of how it would hurt when they switched back.

"Well he is an only child so I guess so." Matt wasn't really sure if he felt like 'the kid' or not. "It was way before I got here, just after they got rescued from Becile. Rabbit talked him down from what I understand, helped him work through it. Maybe she'd have some words of wisdom."

[brokenverse]

A slight frown curled Collars borrowed face.

"Annoyed, not pissed." He corrected "And definitely definitely confused."

[freakshowrabbit]

Wolfy ground his teeth a bit, not in anger but in thought.

"They’re my family.  These guys are your family, right?  Imagine your family just dispersing without a word, or without even trying.  And they’re all you have.  I’ve lived with these guys for years, in our most down trodden, our most vulnerable.  They’re all I have.  We’re all our Matt has.  All our Peter has.  Is it really so much to believe that we’d try to keep him with us?  Or that we’d think him selfish for trying to kill himself, or run off with you without a word to us?"

Scratching at the collar, he frowned deeper than before at the thought of having it off, and then right back on like he had.

"I’m giving up my freedom for this family, for him, to try and keep us together and surviving.  The least he could do is stop lying to us."

[brokenverse]

Matt considered his questions, his expressions odd on Collars face.

"It's hard, cause I do feel like i'm a part of this family and that's cause they made me welcomed as part of it as soon as i got here but- I wasn't around for some really important stuff, for the stuff that's really bound the rest of this house together. A lot of stories that arn't really mine to tell."

He gave a tiny shrug and after a short silence

"Our Peter did try to kill himself."

[brokenverse]

Matt watched him check the hall, lock the door, an plop down with a sigh. A twinge of nervousness running through him over it.

That quickly turned to open shock as Wolfy removed his collar.

He stared open mouthed as the wolf man explained, gaze wavering between the collar and Wolfy’s face.

"I-i-i-i"

He stammered, another look down and up again.

"Okay I seriously have no idea how to react to this news right now."

[freakshowrabbit]

He clicked the collar back into place, leaning back in the chair and looked annoyed at the floor.

"It’s been pent up and frustrating I’m afraid.  Sorry for the unloading.  You’re probably really confused and pissed at me still, don’t expect any less."

[brokenverse]

A slight frown curled Collars borrowed face.

"annoyed, not pissed." he corrected "and definitely definitely confused."

[brokenverse]

"Babbits mou’f is REALLY big!"

 Ian informs him excitedly as Babbit casually starts to rub his nose with his paws.

"When he yawns he looks like a W’ION! Like he’s goin RRAAARRRRR"

Those floppy ears twitched in light surprise as Ian did his best imitation of a lion.

[justbootlaces]

"I didn’t know bunnies had big mouths at all! I thought they just hat little teeny ones and nibbled everything and— and—"

Keys looks down at a beeping watch, and winces a bit, sighing.

"Kenny? It’s getting toward dinner time. We better get home."

"AWWW!"

Keys slumps, a bit.

"I’d stay, but Dana’ll use it as an excuse to skip her meds, and that’s the last thing she needs, right now."

[brokenverse]

"They gots really sharp teefs but Babbits a'ways rea'y careful an he nibbles on my finger sometimes when I feed 'im stuff an it TICKLES" 

Ian explained, climbing down off the couch to sit on the floor in front of Kenny and Babbit and pet the flop ears head.

He echoed Kennys "AAWWWW"  when Keys spoke, slumping onto the couch and Kennys lap dramatically  "But we barely gotsta play!"

"Ian" Steve muttered warningly, the tot knew better then to whinelike this, but there was a smirk of amusement edging onto his face.

[brokenverse]

Matt mulled Wolfy’s words over, trying to reconcile it with his own views of family but it was a difficult task.

[freakshowrabbit]

Wolfy sighed hard, running his clawed hands through hair that desperately needed to be washed and trimmed.  Looking around, he got up and scampered over to the door, looking into the hall to make sure they were alone.  Before coming back, sitting next to the bed, and sighed hard once more.  With a click, he reached up and took off the collar around his neck.

"My contract’s been up for about two years.  Steve’s would have been up in a year and a half, and Matt’s in three.  Except Steve stepped on a fucking stupid piece of glass, and now has to pay off his medical bills.  And the whole not eating thing, and he’s not paying it off any faster by not being home."  He looked more annoyed than angry now.

"I’ve been staying in a cage, waiting for them to be free too.  Was hoping Steve would do the same, like we always said we would.  We’d wait for Matt to get out, then find a place to take Peter with us while he was in school.  Find a way to get the ‘bots out.  But now everything’s fucked up, and he’s here instead of with us.  So yeah, guess what, we’re not happy at all."

[brokenverse]

Matt watched him check the hall, lock the door, an plop down with a sigh.A twinge of nervousness running through him over it.

That quickly turned to open shock as Wolfy removed his collar.

He stared open mouthed as the wolf man explained, gaze wavering between the  collar and Wolfy's face.

"I-i-i-i"

He stammered, another look down and up again.

"Okay I seriously have no idea how to react to this news right now."

[brokenverse]

Sam, would you rather have Ian die or Violet die?

D8 take me instead! +Sam+

[brokenverse]

Steve smirked at him, then gently took his arm and turned him so he was looking behind them at the rest of the playroom, where a castle complete with working drawbridge and moat. 

Yeah it was actually kind of an impressive playroom. x3

[frostverse]

David’s eyes widened. Just…A playroom. David.

"This is amazing. You know, I was honestly a little worried about this verse because…because…Uh…Well it’s called Broken. But, you know, this is pret-ty cool Steve."

[brokenverse]

Steve snorted a laugh.

"Yeah, Qwerty came up with that one. It’s- actually more a reference to us then our world. But even that we’ve gotten a lot better since everything that happened to us

((pregnancy test meme)) He'd seen it in the trash can on his way to get a sip of water, it had made his nonexistant core jump in his metal throat with excitment. He didn't say anything, it might not even be Mels or she could be waiting or any number of things but till she did (he hoped she did share this amazing news with him) he was left a tightly wound core of excitment and anticipation hanging on her every word. well more then usual

She was pacing as she waited for Sam to return, a hand placed protectively on her stomach. How was she going to tell him? Would he be okay with it? She looks up at Sam when he comes back, smiling softly. “S-sam? I- I have something t-t-t-to tell you. You might w-w-want to sit d-d-d-d-down.”

[melodiatherobot-blog]

She does look up at Sam and smiles. She nestle Violet’s small form against her breast, letting her suckle, as Melodia reaches a hand up to cup Sam’s cheek. “She’s beautiful and she’s ours,” she whispers, happy tears spilling over her cheeks. “I love you.”

[brokenverse]

“I love you too Mel.” Sam answered, voice choked and wobbling “I love both of you so much.”

He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled them both close.

"Hi Violet, welcome to the world."

[melodiatherobot-blog]

Her free hand gently strokes Sam’s cheek, pulling him into a sweet kiss. “She’s ours… And she’s so beautiful…” 

At Sam’s voice, Violet’s head turns up, her large eyes staring up at Sam. As she smiles, smoke surrounds the new family, quickly turning them back to their metallic forms.

[melodiatherobot-blog]

"Well, you’re no longer in a little tub anymore, so don’t worry! Plus Sam’s getting Ian, so you don’t have to worry about him either!"

"Oh stop," she whines happily, spinning in the water. "You’re going to make me blush even harder!"

[brokenverse]

"And thank you SO much for that. I was worried my fin was gonna be bent permanently!" he turned to point at the dorsal fin now protruding from his back. "Was not comfortable at all."

[melodiatherobot-blog]

"No problem! It's kind of nice, because now I have someone to talk to! I would have been stuck in this tub for days!"

She nods, smiling. "Well, no more bent fins anymore! This tub is definitely large enough for the two of us!" she says with a light laugh.

[brokenverse]

"We still would'a come to visit, definitely Sam anyway. Not sure he'd want us along to interupt your ~alone time~" He teased, wiggling his tail.

Melodia holds her hands out towards Peter, taking the little bundle into her arms. “She’s so fragile,” she murmurs quietly. She looks up at Sam. “And she’s ours. A little bit of you and a little bit of me…” She gently runs a finger over the baby’s face. “She has your eyes….”

Melodia looks up at Sam, happy tears in her eyes. “Our little Violet Grace… She’s so beautiful, isn’t she?”

[brokenverse]

Sam didn’t respond, leaning over the two and cupping his newborn daughters cheek, if Mel looked up she’d see he was just barely keeping from crying with joy.

Norman bit his tongue, this did not seem like the way to make him feel more wanted but this wasn’t the setting to bring that up.

"Bu-bu-but you was gonna go see you friends and learn stuff!" Ian pointed out, the whole thing sounded rather exciting to him

[justbootlaces]

"They aren’t my friends, I dunno anyone out there!"

Keys sighs, and crouches down to Kenny’s level.

"There are people out there that can help you, but you know it isn’t safe for a lot of them to come into the city. Kenny, they’re going out on a breaking limb just talking to us at all. They’re trusting us not to go out there and ruin everything they’re working for. They’re trusting us to not steal their children and chase them out of their homes."

There’s a pout, and deep, deep suspicion in the little boy’s eyes.

"Kenny, I know you don’t want to do this. But if you want to learn how to control any of what you can do, you have to go. I’m sorry. They’re the only people around here that can teach you.”

[brokenverse]

There was an awkward silence, neither adult feeling this was the proper time to voice their opinions (the third being The Jon who was still powered down) on the matter and not really knowing what to do.

It’s Babbit who breaks the silence, with a wide bunny yawn and a sneeze that causes Ian to giggle loudly

"Beshu Babbit!"

[justbootlaces]

Poor Kenny eyes Babbit,glancing back and forth between Keys and the bunny.

Babbit wins.

"I didn’t know bunnies had big mouths!"

There’s a bit of a giggle, and Keys seems beyond relieved that the argument is forgotten.

[brokenverse]

"Babbits mou'f is REALLY big!"

 Ian informs him excitedly as Babbit casually starts to rub his nose with his paws.

"When he yawns he looks like a W'ION! Like he's goin RRAAARRRRR"

"That bit about you suffering because of Steve’s ‘selfishness’ ” he even did the finger quotes.

[freakshowrabbit]

Wolfy’s eyes narrowed, clamming up for a bit. Of course he heard that.  The wolfman huffed and puffed, trying to reach for any excuse he could give.

"I hate his guts.  But he’s family.  Family is supposed to stick together, even when they have the chance not to.  And he’s throwing family away.  We’re all hurting from it."

[brokenverse]

Matt mulled Wolfy's words over, trying to reconcile it with his own views of family but it was a difficult task.
