-Spiky Translator-
(Gordon / Kade)
It was a unique call Gordon’s come to recognize over the months. Although he was no where near understanding the the language in full, certain chirps and tweets became native to him. This certain, particular cheep was calling his name. Many would think it was just simple bird chirps, but not for Gordon as he tried his hardest to learn the basics for a certain, young Puffball. A warm smile formed on his face as he turned around to see his little nephew dashing towards him.
“Kade,” He spoke and summoned one of his hands to lightly pat his head, “What can I do for you today?”
Kade slightly shifted and softly mumbled to himself to form the sentence he was going to say. After a few minutes, he looked up and tried his best to speak to him,
“Mom…” He paused for a moment to form his sentence before continuing, “Today....ummm....Mom....day...?"
“I’m presuming you mean Mother’s Day?”
Kade eagerly shook his head and held out the blank piece of paper in his hand. He pointed to it and with an unsure glance, trying to ask his uncle for help. Unfortunatly he was only able to say 1 or two words in english before going back to his chirping. Gordon, from what he could hear, couldn’t make out any of the cheeps and gave a slight frown.
Kade looked up when Gordon didn’t speak and knew his uncle had no idea what he was saying. A small blush formed on his face and he covered his mouth in embarrassment. Although he was somewhat comfortable speaking around Gordon over the months, there would be times where he’d also become embarrassed when his father or Emma wasn’t around to help translate what he was saying. He never liked it when he was unable to communicate to others like his mom or his uncle Gordon or Ramset.
Gordon saw Kade starting to tear up and with a quick swoop of his arm embraced the little Puff. “Aw, Kade- don’t cry. Please don’t get worked up about it.”
The tiny warrior shook his head in disagreement, “B-but....no understand...what...ummm, saying..”
