where did you come from, baby dear?

For all your "whoops I guess I have a kid now?" needs. Did you always want to be a parent? Did you swear you'd never ever be a parent? Doesn't matter now.

Possible scenarios include, but are not limited to:

• Left on your doorstep with a tearjerking note
• Wandering around unsupervised
• Entrusted to you by a friend/stranger/enemy
• Has apparently adopted YOU
• Product of your past indiscretions
• Product of your PARENTS' past indiscretions
• Summoned from another dimension
• Rescued from a mad scientist's lab

The kid in question can be whatever character tags yours, or you can enlist that character to help you wrangle your new NPC rugrat. Suit yourselves. Have fun!

The Child had a lot to process. He'd been perfectly happy hunting frogs when the trio had found him. The man with the hairy face didn't seem to like him much, but that was okay. Then there was the angry blue lady. She scared him. But this one. This one was fun.

He smiled broadly, enjoying the bouncing motion. It was a new experience. Something like the rocking of a ship or his cradle, but different. His ears raised as he tilted his head curiously at the larger person. Why was he talking so strangely? He opened his mouth and a small sound came out... It sounded nothing like Peter.

"Yes! Yes, Peter." With his palm open, Peter touched his chest. Despite the fact that they were stranded in space and his suit had protected him from the lack of oxigen, turns out they have found a few plantes that were totally suited for human life. And Quill had enough spare clothes to borrow from. They were a little too big on Parker, but they served their purpose anyway.

Holding a finger out, he touched his own chest once more. "Peter." Only to then touch the green baby's tummy later. "What's your name? Can you say your name?"

Perhaps he shouldn't tickle him like that just yet.

This big person was persistent. The child tilted his head the other way, blinking slowly at him. He could understand the words. Though he didn't understand why he was repeating them over and over. Was Peter trying to remember? Oh! Maybe he forgot! He was repeating it so he'd remember it. That made more sense.

Oh, but then there's a finger poking at his tummy and he feels something move. His ears droop for just a moment before he burps.

Right away Peter jerks his hand away. But despite of the brief fright, a smile spreads on his face again. "You don't have like acid puke or anything, do you? No, you're basically a nice baby. A green nice baby."

Tony sighed, still working on one of the panels to try and get one of the coolers to work properly. Peter had offered to help but the adult had sent him to look after his 'new pet'.

"Pete, we're dropping him in the next planet we see. The thing could have rabies for all we know."

Peter looked over his shoulder, pouting lightly. "He doens't have space rabies. He does drool sometimes but its not big deal."
