[ packs the essential water bottles & sandwiches in his backpack before he's off, putt putt putting to the fair's designated parking spot. doesn't immediately head for the meeting spot, however, strolling on over the bathroom first to do his business. before he leaves, he takes a moment to poke at some of the misbehaving strands on his head in a slightly disgruntled manner. attempts smoothing the strands down twice, then shakes his head, accepting the catastrophe that had been yesterday's sudden rain shower.

making his way back into the outside world, he ignores the trail of waddling seagulls behind him & begins to lazily walk toward the ticket booth to wait for alyssa & tony. ]

Yeah! It's not really adventurous, but who knows how grumpier uncle's gonna get if we take time to decide!

[ rolls his eyes up to the sky and sighs a little. just waits their conversation out, glancing their way in a silent question of their final choices. ]

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

One strawberry and one banana! Extra large.

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

[ gives a nod and, with some difficulty, he pays the proper amount and steps to the side to wait for their order. can't help but glance in the direction where he last saw alyssa, quickly subduing his worries in favor of a greater evil. ]

[ accepts the strawberry when it's handed to her, beaming at the owner. ]

Thank you, ma'am!

[ makes sure elias gets his smoothie before moving away from the stand. shakes his head a bit to rid himself of the bad mood that's slowly edging towards him, giving the twins a small grin. ]

So how about that bear?

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

[ studies him for a while, then takes his hand again with a softer grip. ]

Let's try over there!

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

[ glances down at him, then in their new destination. smiles wider. ]

Onward!

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

[ giggles. ]

Onward! For auntie!

[ steps in front of one of the stands, tilting his head up at the big bears hanging there. ]

Hmm... does this one look right to you?

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

[ tilts his head up at the black one. ]

Do you think it's the biggest?

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

It looks pretty darn big to me...

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

Okay, let's get that one! If we find a bigger one, we can get that too!

[ gives a short nod before gently placing eileen on the ground. stretches a bit and takes out his wallet, handing the right amount of money to the man standing there. ignores the smirk given to him as he picks up one of the rifles and adjusts it, aiming it steady. pauses and looks down at the twins before he says, a little amused: ]

Be sure to cheer me on or I could miss without your luck.

[ immediately links hands with his sister when she scoots next to him. ]

No way, uncle won't miss!

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're going to be super awesome and get that bear!

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

[ puffs out his chest proudly, taking aim once more at the target. hits it in one go, makes a "whoop!"ing noise, then gives a short smirk at the (now-frowning) man behind the booth. points upward to the prize. ]

Bear. The black one, please.

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

[ squeals out a yell of celebration & steps up beside nathan to puff her chest out. ]

Yeah, hand it over!

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

[ places a hand on her head and strokes her hair a bit as they wait. takes the bear when it's handed to him, showing it off to the twins with a proud look on his face. ]

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

[ both latches around his waist, laughing excitedly while rubbing their faces into his sides. ]

It's great! Thank you, uncle!

1/2

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

[ wobbles a bit from the added weight, blinking down at them in confusion. ]

...

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

[ slowly smiles, patting them each on the head twice with his free hand. ]

You're welcome. [ shakes the bear a bit in emphasis to his next words: ] Do you want to hang onto this? Or should I keep it until you guys are done playing with your big sis?

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

Hmm. . . Did you bring your car?

[prideofchange.livejournal.com]

Yep! I can strap this guy in there safe and sound.

[prideofbrats.livejournal.com]

In the passenger seat! 'Cause he's auntie's bear.
