The Single Parent Meme
Congratulations, you are now a proud parent.
Whether they're driving you crazy, getting in the way of love or filling your whole world, you certainly can't ignore them.
Pick yourself a scenario and get ready for the pitter patter of tiny feet.
- Post your character, canon and preferencees
- Choose a role
- Repliers pick from the below options
- ????
- Profit
Roles
1. Parent and child - One of you is the parent and the other is their blessed offspring (or holy terror).
2. Parent and Parent - Commiserating together on the woes of parenthood
3. Parent and Other (ir)Responsible Adult - Whether they're your kid's school teacher or the new boy/girlfriend about to meet the sprog, your kid is influencing this conversation. And the scenarios to choose from...
Parent and Child
1. Let's just get through today - it's a special occasion! Whether it's a birthday, Christmas or some other celebration, it's a big day and there's a lot going on. Control the sugar rush and avoid tears before bedtime, and you might just survive it.
2. What did you do!? - The dreaded call from the school has come, and now you've got to march down there and find out what your wayward child is up to today
3. Sick Day - Nobody's going anywhere today, call into work and notify the school, because your child is ILL.
4. Big shoes to fill - This is not your child. They're your little brother, your niece, your best friend's son, their real parents are gone and you're the only one who can step in.
5. Other - Got another idea? Fill your boots! No, not with that, oh god, who's going to clean this up?
Parent and Parent
1. Playdate - Oh my gosh you'll love my friend, he has a kid too! It's a blind date based solely on being parents, and your kids are there as well. Oh this should be fun.
2. Field Trip - You're both chaperoning for the school field trip, I hope you get on well together because that's one long bus journey.
3. Support Group - It's a lonely, difficult road, so it's nice to have somebody to talk to that understands that your sweet, adorable child gets less sweet and adorable after the fourth screaming fit.
4. Your child did WHAT? - You're both called in to the office because your kids have been fighting. Or caught making out. Or otherwise getting in trouble. Who gets the blame here?
5. Other - Go nuts. Literally, kids are hard.
Parent and other adult
1. Parent/Teacher Conference - Since he started school your child can't stop talking about their amazing/terrible teacher, and now you get to find out for yourself! (Oh no he's hot is optional)
2. Something you should know - You've been on a few dates and things are going well, it's about time to drop the child bomb before things get too serious.
3. Lost and found - Your child has run away/gotten lost, but there's a kind stranger depositing them back in your waiting arms, how do you ever repay them?
4. Over the fence - Your child has lost something in the next door neighbour's garden and they're too scared to go ask for it back themselves, you're up.
5. Other - A shocking twist in the classic options, choose your own!

Perhaps you have been at that, but it's a dangerous business, I wanted to keep you safe a little longer...

[He loves his city, but he knows it's far from safe]
no subject
Well...yes, alright, you have a point there. But still, when you against the templars you paint a target on your back, and I couldn't lose both of you.
no subject
They got Dad, right? That's why yer so scared of me learnin'?
no subject
[She wants to deny she's scared of him joining the brotherhood, but he's smarter than that, he knows. She nods]
They did.
no subject
An' ... they've killed others too.
[In their family. That they know]
no subject
They have. They've killed a lot of people.
But we've killed a lot of them too. Including the bastard who took Henry from me. I killed him myself.
no subject
Then ... how're we meant to be better? If we're killin' too?
no subject
It's not... it's not necessarily the killing itself that is the problem, although they have taken far too many innocent lives. They... they manipulate, worm their way into society and try and control it, they want everybody dancing to their tune, want to make people do what they want.
no subject
How?
no subject
Well, for a start they work their way into positions of power, places they can have influence. When your uncle and I first arrived in London, the grand master of the time, Crawford Starrick, had his hands in almost every part of London, including the underworld. They also look for things called the pieces of eden, these are.. artefacts with great power, they can be used to do the impossible.
no subject
[He did try to pay attention to his schooling]
no subject
Yes... one of the first encountered was called the apple of eden, there's also a staff, and a shroud... the brotherhood tries to collect these objects before the templars can get their hands on them, to keep them safe and away from those who would use them to do harm.
no subject

It's funny you should say that, the brotherhood's records tell us that once, one of the pieces was a papal staff held by Pope Alexander VI, a man who also happened to be a Templar Grand Master. An Assassin named Ezio Auditore took it from him.
no subject
[He was suspicious by nature. He couldn't help it]
no subject
They've been passed down through the brotherhood for hundreds of years, but no, we can never be completely sure.
[She sounds impressed]
It's that kind of critical thinking I wish your uncle Jacob was better at. It's good not to take things at face value.

Of course. I'll answer every question you have, if I can, during your training.
