Does this mean I need to rewrite the schedule?

[cal_sitter]

Perhaps.

[justashow]

I'll keep it in mind.

Better now?

[cal_sitter]

A little. He still has some growing up to do.

[winewomenand]

You know, that boychild brother of yours really ought to be commended on his timing. Just when I thought that I was becoming far too acquainted with too many cheerful or socially outgoing personalities, he appears to put the suitable amount of rain on the parade.

I shall go purchase the necessary eyeliner.

[cal_sitter]

Stay out of the cosmetics, Robin. Eyeliner is dangerous.

[winewomenand]

Eyeliner may be dangerous, but it is the foundation that will kill you. Classically, I mean.

So how long will it be until you actually let him out to play in his new sandbox? Red rover, red rover, send Caliban over?

[cal_sitter]

The voice of experience? You've probably breathed in enough talc in your exploits to poison an entire lab full of rats.

I thought I might keep him under lock and key until he's forty. Is that too long?

[missesthestars]

I have a new feverfew, chamomile and lemongrass blend that could help a bit as well.

Not that I expect to be able to pull you away for awhile.

[cal_sitter]

Thank you, Promise. I appreciate the gestures.

[missesthestars]

Think nothing of it. I'll bring some over later, if that's alright.

[cal_sitter]

Of course. I imagine familiar faces will be welcome here.

[horrorwithin]

You'd think it'd be more surprising to see a "homicidal bear plush". Only you would get the one that comes equipped with its own katana.

[cal_sitter]

I'm adding it to the list of oddities below aliens, zombies, Robin faced with feeding a toddler ...

[horrorwithin]

Someone trusted Loman with their kid?

[cal_sitter]

Not exactly.

[starchilde_lost]

The infamous Cal has returned, huh?

[cal_sitter]

You'll give him ideas if you talk about him like that.

[starchilde_lost]

And giving him ideas is a Very Bad Thing, isn't it?

[cal_sitter]

It's certainly bad for my stress levels.
