#accos day

[gnomeyflamingo]

Acco: “Yay presents, exactly what I wished for!”

Atreo: “Ugh you’re so lame.”

Acco: “A wisp, that’s so cool!”

Atreo: *grumbles jealously* “Of course you get the good gifts from the magic present pile.”

Atreo: “Mum why did you invite my friends to Acco’s birthday?”

Brielle: “Because you're all close in age-"

Atreo: “But they're MY friends! It’s unfair. He’s even talking to my crush, I haven’t even gotten to talk to her yet!”

Brielle: “Ooh you have a crush?”

Atreo: "Errrr..."

It’s bowling time!

Acco: “Okay, first time bowling ever... How do I play this game?!”

Aldo: “Should we… Talk?”

Derya: “I mean we can just keep staring at each other, what’s another half an hour?”

Jayce: “Your dad is having an alien baby? That’s EPIC!”

Atreo: “Attention everyone! THIS is how you bowl!”

*four pins remain*

Atreo: *grumbles* “At least nobody cares enough to watch me fail. This day sucks.”

Acco: “And then she whispered to me that she was going to be my nanny forever and nobody could stop her.” 

Atreo: “Ugh stop being so dramatic Acco. Nanny Keahola almost set me on fire.”

 Asmara: “Shhh Atreo, I’m trying to listen to Acco.”

Atreo: “Acco's so desperate to be liked by Asmara, it’s embarrassing.”

Kiry: “Oh goodness me! At least he isn't throwing paint everywhere like Derya.”

Zehra: “Acco sounds awful. You deserve better.”

Atreo: “Thanks Zehra.”

Zehra: "I'll support you. Always. Forever. Anywhere."

Kiry: “Happy birthday! What a superb party.”

Acco: “Thank you!”

Atreo: “Traitor…”

Aldo: “Do you want to hear something funny? Dad named my brother Helmuth, after his favourite author. And mum just let him!”

Atreo: “Quiet Aldo, I’m angrily watching Acco suck suck at bowling.

Alejandro: “Happy birthday, my big boy, you're so grown up now!” 

Acco: “Thanks Papi, I loved this party. It was amazing." 

Brielle: “My beautiful Acco, it only seems like yesterday they cut you out of me as Greg rampaged the hospital grounds. It's making me all emotional."

Later that day Brielle and Alejandro are throwing Acco a party at the bowling alley and have invited as many people as possible.

Piper: “Hi Acco, happy birthday!”

Acco: “Who are you?”

Piper: “I’m Piper from daycare silly!”

Acco: *confused* “But Piper belongs in daycare."

Zehra: “So I’ve been 'observing' Aldo. I had to earn his trust first by befriending him, but now I can go through his trash and journal with no problems. His life is pathetic and sad.”

Atreo: “As expected but please do tell. I need to be distracted from this awful party.”

Acco: “Cake time?”

Brielle: “It sure is. Come here sweetie. Ah, I can’t believe you’re becoming a child today. Time is going so fast.”

Rowan: “Helmuth? Helmuth von Gluck York where are you? Are you trying to forget your name through dance again? Helmuth!”

Brielle: “Time to blow out the candles Acco! Make a wish!”

Acco: “I wish, uhm- I wish for presents!”

Atreo: “What a stupid wish. I wish I didn’t have to be here.”

Zehra: * whispering from corner spot* “And I wish Atreo falls in love with me.”

Acco has aged up. He’s a creative social butterfly and has earned the top notch toddler reward trait.

Asmara: *mutters to self* "Wow Acco is a real cutie now he’s in the same life stage as me. I should get to know him better... After cake. Cake first."

I sense dramaaaaaa.

Atreo: “Happy birthday Accomplished Stink Bottom. My birthday cake was way better than yours but I’ll eat it anyway.”

Acco: “Are you ever going to be nice to me?”

Atreo: “Nope.”

Atreo: “Hi there new child, I’m Atreo.”

Jayce: “I’m Jayce, nice to meet you! I’m so happy I got invited to this birthday party. It’s epic.”

Atreo: “It's really not... What do you think of Acco?”

Jayce: “The birthday boy? He seems great.”

Atreo: “Go away.”

Asmara: "So my dad's alien pregnant now. What's going on with you Acco?"

Acco: “Did you hear of the nanny impersonator that got arrested? ”

Asmara: “Yeah-”

Acco: “That was MY not-nanny!”

Asmara: “OMW you’re so brave, a survivor! Tell me more.”

Atreo: *glares & sulks quietly*

✮ Acco’s Day ✮

And we return to… This.

Police officer: “You’re going away for a long time-”

Kealoha: “Unhand me at once! I’m the nanny. Did you hear me? I AM NANNY!”

Police officer: "We'll see what the judge says."

Today is Acco's birthday but it's also a work day...

Acco: “Read away the trauma. Read away the fear. Ooh milestone.”

Alejandro: “Come on sweetie, it’s time for daycare. I’ll never trust that nanny service again.”

Acco: “Daycare?”

At Get Growin' Up daycare…

Alejandro: “Morning!”

Piper: “Good morning! I’m the daycare townie and I will not get off this bench for the duration of this conversation no matter what the Watcher does. I guess I’m just annoying that way.”

Acco: “Papi, I’m scared.”

Alejandro: “It’s going to be okay sunshine. You survived the erratic imposter nanny, so daycare is going to be a piece of cake. I love you.”

Acco: "Love you too Papi."

Piper: "Is he gone? Yes? Ah I'll get off this bench then."

It’s the first time Acco has met so many toddlers and infants. He’s intrigued and I’m stuck in a glitchy, photo-taking  nightmare.

Denise: “Hello I’m Denise.”

Acco: “Hellooooo Denise. I’m Acco.”

The nightmare/day continues when Acco ventures out into the playground.

Helmuth: “I’m dancing, trying to forget my name is Helmuth.”

Denise: “Waterrrr.”

Acco: “Look out, I’m coming down the slide.”

Carter: “You shan’t! I’m working here with my flour and cups. I’m an artiste!”

Piper: “Snacktime! Look at you all sitting in your highchairs. A Watcher miracle.”

Helmuth: “I love snack time. Do you love snack time?”

Acco: *thinks* "...Yes."

Helmuth: "I'm Helmuth. Wanna be friends?"

Acco: "... Yes!"

The day continues and much fun is had. Lifelong friendships are forged, PB&J's are eaten. Milestones formed. All in all, Acco had a very good first and final day at daycare. If this wasn't so difficult to manage then he might have done this before now.
