!!Uh oh bones!!! *snap, crackle, pop* UH OH-!! You have been warned!!
"Tree wait-"
Tree doesn't even wait for them to finish, shutting the door behind him and driving away before Black Hole could speak. God knows where he's going, Black Hole just knows its away from him.
Away from his fuck ups, and shitty ideas. Away from the insanity that he'd bring to his life, why Tree put up with him he's never known. And now? Now he's finally given up on him.
He should've a while ago, don't know why he put up with you for so long.
"Papa? What happened."
Black Hole stares down at Jr. eyes full of fear and concern. He's so tired, falling to his knees and holding CJ tight in his grasp. Clinging onto him as if they were the only thing keeping him alive. Jr. hugs back, confused. "Where'd Dad go? Why'd he just up and leave us like that?"
"I don't know...I don't know." Black Hole stammers, head buried into Cherry Jr's shoulder. "I don't know hun."
"Hey you're alright...he'll come back." Pen says, shuffling towards the pair. "Besides...the thing is kind of cute...? Even though it scratched the crap out of me..."
CJ can't help but laugh, recalling Planty absolutely mauling Pen. Completely destroying, obliterating, decimating, incinerating, the silly little blue capped bozo.
"That was really funny, Uncle Pen. You should've seen your face you looked so stupid!" CJ chuckles. "Okay okay, Black Hole? Get your kid to stop making fun of me!"
Black Hole rolls his weary eyes, wiping his face with his sleeve. "Jr, stop bullying your uncle." Jr. groans, crossing his arms. "...Well...should I give him space? Or...go out and find him?"
"I think space is what he needs. Not you...space guy." Pen chuckles, patting Planty's head gently. The creature groans in return, hopping out of Black Hole's arms, opting to hang out with Juno instead.
Pen places a gentle hand on Black Hole's shoulder, "He'll come back, I promise. He's not one to hold a grudge like this for more than a day."
Cherry Jr. stares, "Like you?"
Pen glares at them playfully, "You really want to push my buttons today kid?" CJ smiles widely, running away to play with the cats.
Black Hole sighs, standing up slowly. "I hope you're right..."
Pen laughs, placing a confident hand on his hip. "I'm always right!"
*****************************************
Tree drives aimlessly. Why? Why is it always him that has to deal with this shit?
He's got a cat, a kid, and now some weird alien thing because of his boyfriend! His stupid stupid, loveable, stupid boyfriend. Tree loves him, loves him to death. But sometimes he doesn't know how much longer he can but up with his understandable incompetence.
He stops in an empty lot, burying his face in his hands a screaming. Screaming so loud he hopes god hears his agony. How much longer he can put up with this he doesn't know.
Forever, that's how long.
He loves it, he knows he does. He loves Black Hole, even with his ignorance with basic things. But he really needs to talk about impulsive adoption.
If he had a nickel for every time Black Hole brought home a living breathing creature for them to adopt, he'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot...but weird it happened twice?
