[Later that day, the parade procession went as planned, with Wander n the litters part of the procession. The rest of the gang, after watching the parade, made their way to the fair to enjoy themselves]
Sylvia: [dragged Awesome n the kids to the shooting range to do some shots to win their prizes]
Awesome: (taking a few shots) Almost got it.
Amazing & Pride: (Playfully wrestling with each other)
Sylvia: Yeah, aim for that one n we can get those plush for the boys
Hater: Ooh, let's try the carousel, Wander [points at it] The kids can ride on our backs while we ride 'em
Wander: ^^ Alright, Hatey.
[Everyone else went to try all kinds of stuff...all except Peepers]
Peepers: (being mopey by himself) -_-
Brad: [was just browsing ard, not going to anything in particular wen he sees Peepers ahead, then hesitated, not sure whether to go near him or not]
Peepers: (sighs) >_> Might as well try and enjoy myself... (slowly walks off)
Brad: [wanted to call out to him but his voice caught in his throat, then was suddenly approached by a random drunk Skeletor]
Drunk: Heyyy therrrre, wats a good-lookin' like ya doing all on ur loooonesomme??
Brad: Ugh, g-get away frm me, u reek!
Peepers: (halts and looks back) Brad...?
Drunk: Awwww, don't be such a party-pooper, good-lookin'! Let's go hv somethin' tuh drink n maaayyybe u might enjoy the company
Brad: S-Sorry, I'll pass... [unconsciously had his arms ard his belly, as if trying to shield the baby frm him]
Peepers: (pauses)... (runs forward) Hey, hey, HEY! (gets between the Drunk and Brad) Did you not notice he's not interested in you?
Drunk: Wats it with u, eyeball? U his boyfriend or something, huuuuh?
Brad: M-Master...?
Peepers: (looks at Brad) ...Yes...yes he is, and I do NOT like the idea that you're hitting on him, espcially since he's with MY child, so back off or I won't be responsible for what I do to you. (scowling at the drunk)
Drunk: Huuuh?? He's got ur buns in the ovennnn? I don't beliiieevve uuu~~
Grimm: [showed up n pulled the drunk by the bk of his collar] I think u had enough for now. Security!
Brad: [blinked at Grimm's sudden appearance] W-Woah, where did he come frm?
Peepers: Skeletors can teleport at will.
Grimm: We can take it frm here. U run along now [shoos them away with a wink] ;)
Peepers: (leads Brad to a bench) You okay, Brad?
Brad: Y-Yeah, thanks... [looks away] U... U didn't hv to say all that to that drunk, u knw... We're not reli...u knw...
Peepers:...are you saying you'd still prefer the whole 'master and slave' thing?
Brad: We are, aren't we? As long as I wear this collar, the fact isn't gonna change that we are! No matter how much I love u, its not going to-- [covered his mouth wen he realized he just blurted it out]
Peepers: (starts) Wait...repeat that?
Brad: N-No! No, I didn't say anything! U heard it wrong! I hate u! [looked away, blushing hard]
Peepers:...(makes Brad look at him)... (kisses him gently)
Brad: [resisted at first, then slowly kisses him bk, tears he thought he had done crying poured out again] I'm sorry... I'm sorry I said those things... I'm so sorry... Pls forgive me, Master...
Peepers: (hugs Brad) Shh, shh, shh... I'm also sorry for things I've said... (looks in his eyes)... I love you too, my prince...
Brad: N-No... No, u don't... Ur just saying that so I can help u keep the baby... I don't... I can't... [clutched his chest tightly again, the overwhelming feelings ached at his heart, threatening to burst]
Peepers: (continues to hug Brad, hushing him in a comforting tone)
Brad: I... I'm scared... I don't knw how to be a mother... I don't knw how to love... Just like Demurra said, I...
Peepers: Don't worry about what's happened back then... you've got me here to help you... we will rid of that collar and we will find the sorceror who did this to you. (gives him small kisses) It'll be okay, my prince...
Brad: It hurts... It hurts wen I feel for u, Master... [still clutching his chest] I don't understand, wat does this mean...?
Peepers: (hugs him) That's just love...real love, isn't it? Do you really love me despite wanting to do away with me?
Brad: I... I don't knw. I guess... I guess I don't reli feel the urge to kill u anymore. I kinda still want to, coz I'm still fighting for my freedom, but not as much now...
Peepers:...Would you like us to start over on this whole thing? Take this slowly?
Brad: Maybe... But isn't it a little late for that? We're already going to have a baby n all... [blushed at that reality]
Peepers: True... but I'd like for us to get along, not try and worry about master and salve stuff...
Brad: But its impossible. This thing still sees us as master n slave. If I do anything that seemed like I'm disobeying u, it'll shock me...n hurt the baby. Maybe we should...keep a distance after all
Peepers:... If you think that's what's best until then, we will find a way to free you from all this... (Kisses his forehead)
Brad: [sniffles] I don't... I don't want this...this stupid collar to be btwn us but...I guess I don't hv a choice. Dammit, why does it hv to be this complicated? I hate u! [but his tone sounded like he didn't reli mean it]
Peepers: :( (hugs him again)... Do you need me to go...?
Brad: [shook his head before he could stop himself] I hate u... I hate u... [his body betraying his words as he hugged Peepers bk tightly]
Peepers: (continues hugging Brad, rocking slowly)
