So I've been watching over the little caterpillar that I didn't even want to take in the first place, but at least this ensures he's not going to be guzzling down Lupin's bottle of soy sauce. In the meantime between finding this kid's parents I've able to get him some clothing. ...Well, and some toys. And, you know, baby formula and diapers and

... this is most suspicious.

[monarch_the]

Oh gee, you're so astute. Was it the people-broke-in-and-actually-beat-Lupin-up thing that tipped you off?

Something beyond a general statement on how equally confused you are could be helpful.

[hiswifeasword]

You misunderstand.

Yesterday, I was approached by a man when I went out on a stroll to clear my head. He wanted information about Lupin.

That in itself is nothing new.

However, he also asked about the child. He was rather adamant.

[monarch_the]

--the baby? Wait, wait, the baby I'm watching? Oh don't tell me you're trying to suggest this is all over some infant Lupin accidentally swiped.

[monarch_the]

Yeah yeah, I frisked the body. Beyond the guy looking limier than Bowie he's got nothing distinctive. Whoever else came with him must have cleaned up.

And hell if I know. I came in after the party, apparently.

[monarch_the]

That's what the robe guy's saying, but I mean that's just-- we're trying to give the baby back!

...Look, do you want him? The thief. I'd take him to a hospital, but you know how those people can get over international criminals and everything.

If you want I could go through some missing persons reports for Pickadilly Circus. Sometimes authorities miss obvious clues.

[monarch_the]

Yeah, that works. You know. Whatever way you Scooby Doo'ers wanna go with this. I'm just saying I've got an unconscious and worse-for-wear Lupin in my cargo hold.

[commanderamarao]

I suspect though if they've not located the parents yet, they're either high profile and keeping it under wraps to the immediate authorities involved, or they're people that don't like being found.

[monarch_the]

Whatever they are, they're so not finding the Cocoon. My mighty flying fortress will be hidden with the great camouflaging skill of the monarch butterfly itself!

[cinnamonxbuns]

Ya don't gahta lie, Eyebrows. I know yer the one that beat 'im up.

[monarch_the]

*laughing despite himself* Oh yeah, totally. Just went sickhouse on his ass. Clubbed him over the head with a Monet and everything.

[cinnamonxbuns]

I knew ya were bad ass, dood. Don't fuck with redheads.

[gmilf_lover]
