maldoror_gw's The Games of Fate, this one belonging to Paulie and Iceburg. He deserves some face time as well, knot-obsessed little spazz or no.
Yuu was a bright boy, if…energetic, so Iceburg honestly couldn’t tell if he was doing it on purpose.
“I’m Yuu, and this is my dad Paulie. That guy over there is my Uncle Iceburg, and he’s the mayor of this whole city and he’s the president of the Galley-La company—we build ships here, but you prob’ly knew that ‘cause you’re trying to buy one—”
“Yuu—”
“—and my dad is a head foremen, but it’s not nep’tism like Cartwright the diagnostics and mechanics dude says because he wasn’t kinda married to my Uncle Iceburg when he got the job—”
“Yuu—”
“—but it’s okay that they’re kinda married because Iceburg isn’t my real uncle, I just call him that ‘cause it’s less confusing. Paulie isn’t my real dad, either, but they won’t tell me who my real dad is ‘cause they say he’s not important but I think they just don’t know—”
“Yuu!”
“—and my mom’s name is Millie and she’s cool because she buys me ice cream and she lets me tie knots in the dog’s fur. I really love tying knots! Do you like rope? I think rope is awesome ‘cause—”
Iceburg watched from the steps of Dock One headquarters as Paulie ripped the grease rag out of his back pocket, shoved it in their eight-year-old child’s mouth, and hauled him bodily over his shoulder.
“We’ll have your order done by the end of the week, sir,” Paulie told the bemused man in front of him, face looking fit to fry an egg on as he strode away while masterfully ignoring the flailing of scrawny limbs in his face.
Iceburg smiled helplessly. He probably did do it on purpose, the little snot. All of Iceburg’s boys were off their rockers.

Date: 2008-02-03 02:05 am (UTC)I keep having an image of Paulie walking along in Water 7 and look into the ice cream parlor window to find a tiny miniature Rob Lucci licking ice cream off Yuu's cheek. Commence Paulie style freak out.
If I could draw or write I would have a field day with this.
