Beastars, What if They Kept the Shock Baby?

Based on that adorable art by @almostthursday

"Ugh what's with the baby papoose?"

"It's for Bill Jr."

"Bill Jr?" Aoba stared at his friend confused. The tiger adjusting the papoose around his body.

"Well yeah. We had to name the little guy something." The eagle watched as Bill picked up the shock egg baby they'd started raising a week ago. Carefully putting the small chick in the papoose, the child giggling slightly.

"Bill. You're the one who said we shouldn't get so attached. I thought we were going to turn him over today." The eagle asked as the tiger huffed, careful to not hurt the chick as he put his hand on it's head.

"Look at this little guy! He doesn't have anyone. If we turned him into the police they're send him to some orphanage. Or worse, what if he ended up in the black market?!" The tiger asked incredulously. Bill Jr spit up on himself as Bill removed his hand. "See Bill Jr agrees with me. We're keeping him." Aoba raised in eyebrow at his friend. Sure the kid-er, Bill Jr, was cute. But he wasn't their problem.

"We don't know anything about being parents. Let parents to a chick. We have classes-"

"That's why I got the papoose! To take him to class with us."

"We've only had him a week and we're already exhausted."

"Yeah but I'm sure I'll get used to it!" Aoba blanked. His friend seemed so eager but he didn't understand how much of a job this would be. "I was Zoogle and found a woman selling her old incubator for little Bill and got him some extra feed." The bald eagle sighed. Clearly knowing there was no way he was going to change the cat's mind.

"Fine. But we're not going to call him Bill Jr."

"Hey Bill is a perfectly fine name-"

"How about Koun?" The two jumped at the new voice. Turning to see Pina leaving against the doorway. "Since he'd be lucky enough to live with you two idiots as parents."

"How long have you been there?"

"Long enough. And may I say congratulations on becoming a single father already. Only 17. It's say that's wasted potential but then again, it's you."

"Did you come here do anything other than insult us?" Bill asked the sheep annoyed.

"I was going to tell you if we don't hurry up you'll be late to class but I'm much more interested in this pseudo family drama thing you have going on. So please, pretend like I'm not here."

"You know Pina sometimes you can be a real a-" Bill cut Aoba off with a hand over his beak. "What?"

"No cursing in front of Bill Jr."

"Koun," Pina added much to the annoyance of Bill.

'Great,' Aoba thought as he stared down at their newly acquired child who was currently blowing spit bubbles as the sheep and tiger fought. 'Least we can do for you is try not to fuck up too badly.'

”Vapor Cone”

The vapor cones are created by a shock wave that is generated by the aircraft as it picks up speed. The shock waves are the physical effects of the aircraft traveling so fast through air. As the aircraft picks up speed, and approaches the speed of sound – around 767mph (1,234km/h) at sea level – shock waves form around the aircraft. Across these shock waves there is ‘discontinuity’ in the local air pressure and temperature. This causes the air to lose its capacity to hold water and condensation starts to form, creating the vapor cone. the vapor cones are often the most dramatic when they take place in what’s called ‘transonic’ flight – that’s when some of the air flowing around the aircraft is flowing at above the speed of sound, and some of it below. However, this effect does not necessarily coincide with the acceleration of an aircraft through the speed of sound or Mach 1.
