HI, hi, hello, guess what i finally finished my "Alpha-17's terrible horrible babysitting escapade" fic and it is 15k (which is about 10k longer than i thought it'd be 🙃) and you can read it NOW (now) 💕
Featuring: Alpha-17 being bullied by kids half his age, Alpha-17 being bullied by adults his own age, clone kid shenanigans, heartfelt emotional bonding, comedy, allusions to the ethical nightmare that is the clone army, sleepy babies, ridiculous numbers of background clone ocs, grammar lessons, e bugs <3
