If there were ever an awkward moment in this household, this was it.
The air was certainly lighter than it had been for the past few days. Nearly everyone had left to run errands, preparing for the hardships ahead, and that left a few to stay and watch Marion, who was always good at maintaining a light mood.
As per usual, Raz and Nazz were there to watch over here. But others were there with them, for extra protection, they claimed. They included Eddy, Masahiro (who had a commitment to the child, after all), and Perceval.
As of now, Marion was in Nazz's arms, cooing inbetween suckles from the bottle she was being fed.
"...you're good at this baby stuff, y'know," Eddy commented lightly.

"Thanks," Nazz replied simply, choosing not to explain to him again the experience she held as a babysitter.
"It is pretty amazing though. I can't even do that and I'm... well..." Masahiro chose not to explain his position as guardian angel either.
Both of them definently felt some of the awkwardness in the room, but neither would show it.

"Well, I mean, yeah, you're a babysitter and all, but you're a GOOD one," Eddy elaborated. "Trust me, a few other ones I had had no patience."
"Some people just aren't good with kids," Raz shrugged.
Seeing Masahiro's discomfort, Perceval smiled, putting a hand on his shoulder in comfort.

"Well then that means they weren't good at it," Nazz explained. "Taking care of kids requires patience, care, and experience."
Masahiro felt the hand on his shoulder and flushed red softly, trying to keep his face hidden.

"Yeah..." Quietly, Eddy watched her feed Marion. For some reason today, he could not stop looking at her.
At the same time, Perceval was giggling, catching sight of the blush.
Raz noticed all of this, but didn't bring attention to it yet. Today was going to be quite interesting.

Nazz noticed Eddy watching her out of the corner of her eyes. She felt a little flush in her cheeks, but returned to caring for Marion. When babysitting, the needs of the child came before one's own needs; this was her #1 rule and the reason for her success... though one did not just spoil the child either.
Masahiro heard the giggle and blushed even harder, trying to hide his face harder now.

Raz smirked to himelf, waiting nice and petiently...
"I can see it, you know," Perceval spoke to him softly. "Why are you so embaressed?"
Finally, Marion pulled away, looking a bit tense.
"...I think you gotta burp her now, right?" Eddy ventured.

"Eh? W-What do you...?" Masahiro said. "How do you see it?"
"Yeah," Nazz said, patting Marion on the back softly, hard enough to induce a burp though.

Perceval giggled, his hand still on the angel's shoulder. "Well, I can't SEE it, but I CAN feel the heat on your face. You know, with my powers."
Slumped over Nazz's shoulder, Marion finally let out a cute little gurgly burp. One that even Eddy found cute.
But when he glanced them over, he paled slightly as he looked over Nazz's back. A fowl smell crawled into his nostrals. "....oh crud..."
(she threw up a little bit. XD Lucas did that to my dad once. She's not sick, it just happens sometimes.)

Nazz beat back the urge to curse as Marion threw up over her back. "It's ok... These things happen... Hey Raz, could you take Marion for just a second while I go change clothes?"
"Oh... I... I see," Masahiro stuttered, using his angel magic to block his nose.

Perceval withdrew a bit shyly. "...sorry if that was weird. I just... wanted to..." It was a touchy subject for him. He had been called strange by the other children of the orpahanage much too often. He bore them all with an innocent grin, but... they still hurt.
"S-sure," Raz bit back his snickers, taking Marion and wiping off her dribbling mouth with a washcloth. The child could only giggle lightly.
Eddy stood quickly with Nazz. "Need any help?" Not until after he belted it out did he realize how awkward it sounded. He flushed furiously. "Uhhh... I mean... I could take your clothes and put them in the laundry... GAH!" He pounded his forehead. "...stupid...!"

Masahiro could tell Perceval felt guilty and immediately reverted into a bit of a childish state. "N-N-No! That's not what I meant, I mean I didn't want you to... Ooooooh, I made you mad, didn't I?" Now Masahiro looked sad.
Nazz smirked a bit at Eddy's shyness; he was so obvious it was almost painful. "Yeah... I could use some help... but no peeking," she stated before stepping into another room, a room she kept her clothes. She took the dirty ones off and tossed them near the door.

But Perceval quickly perked up at this. "Oh! No, not at all! I'm not mad at all! Please don't upset yourself..." He scooted a little closer, looking up at him meaningfully. "I just...you don't think I'm weird, do you?"
Raz could barely hold back his laughing, which Marion was releasing unhibitally. Lucky kid, he thought. She comes off as totally innocent, so she can get away with anything...
"Oh...o-okay!" Eddy sped over quick, grabbing the clothes and tossing them into the laundry, and blushing the whole time.
(I'm sure she has different clothes... something very flattering. XD I'm so terrible)

"How could I ever find you weird? Besides... well... uh..." Masahiro was having a hard time getting the words out.
Nazz put on some different clothes. They weren't too revealing, but they weren't nearly as concealing as the other set was. It was just a middrift, that was all, but she had a plan to see what Eddy was thinking and she planned to put it in motion.

"Besides, what?" Perceval asked. "You can tell me anything, you know."
Turning away from the washer, Eddy gawked at what he was seeing. Okay, she wasn't showing off too much skin, but just enough. Her curves had certainly been kicking in lately.
Wow. Wow.
Looking at an awkward Masahiro and a gawking Eddy, Raz turned towards the bedroom, smirking. "...lemme take Marion in for her nap." The child gave him a raspberry of rebellion, but complied, waving towards the four as they disappeared into the bedroom.
