Error/Moxxie speaking/thoughts

"What you think Mox?"

Maria holding out clothes out for him.

He just clutch his outfit he was already wearing.

"How about this?"

Head shake.

"Want to try on this one?"

Hiss.

"This! This one it even red!"

Toss to the face.

"Tell me what you want you punk!" Maria on the floor now and pleading with a four-year-old.

This has been her life the past month now.

Now it's not too bad.

Moxxie was actually a good child. A strange good child. Well as one can be at his age. But he was. Smug little runt who likes to make her life very interesting.

Moxxie, legally, hers now. Did blood work and everything. The Doctor did want to talk to her about Moxxie blood it was very different. Mention something about seeing red? Purple? He thinks possible down the line of Moxxie ancestry possible a mix of sorts. But couldn't say yet. Will keep in touch but for just tell everyone an Imp with a rare off genetics.

Not like many will care. Rough bunch. Still will kick or kill anyone if they look at HER kid wrongly.

Even with new technology slowly coming over. When it not stolen or destroyed. Moxxie just seem to not well exist. At least paper terms. Or probably was born somewhere that didn't have paperwork. Or was destroyed to not be connected. It could be many things that is very common. Why should there always be paperwork for every low life Imp? At the end just got to be responsible. Unless you family bit and have some kind of 'power' above your kind. So, you keep it. Then there the thing about family trees that some families do.  Or hope the building having your documents don't get burn down. So, make copies if you want to spend the money. It was actually quite normal here in Wrath and the other rings if one doesn't go to a clinic if they are pregnant. Usually, in Wraith, have someone here with experience delivering babies unless if a full emergency then goes to a Doctor. Still a lot has change down in Hell of the different rings. The bad, the good, the bad again. Well you get it.

After getting the proper paper approvals to sign and just skipped most of the process so Moxxie didn't have to be far away from her. When she told Moxxie that was probably the first time she saw a little smile trying to hide behind the scarf. A confused one but she gets it.  This was a whole new experience for both of them.

When she fixed her windows she got to work to make the guest room be Moxxie bedroom. Didn't have an extra bed but Moxxie seem to not mind the destroyed couch when she was about to toss it out. Well at least she saved money and patches it up till she finds something better.

Unaware he doesn't sleep on it. Just like to lay out at it while practicing with magic. The only time he really can at night time since he getting his new body use to it.

He was her little helper in the crops. Like pulling out weeds. Well showing him the weeds that need to be pulled. How to dig up the crops that were ready. He was a good listener and seems to understand. Didn't want to kill the vermin's that luckily sneak in. She expected that now for his age. Till a rat bit him. Didn't cry but threw the rat very far over the fence.

Huh wasn't joking about his magic and strength being weak for a while. Usually can throw stuff farther than that.

Maria doesn't think that rat survive. Almost didn't want to believe what she saw. She will blame the heat. At least been no rat problem for an awhile. At least the small ones.  The rabbits were a different story. Really about to double fence the whole area. Or get that donkey. Then again could go back to old target practice at the window.

Now getting Moxxie to eat was very challenging. She didn't know how many times she had to stop the child to not eat the plate, utensils, and cups. Just the food and liquids in the them. Didn't seem he wanted to eat. He rarely asked for food. It was like a boring chore he was told to do. She swears she thought she saw him couple of times just swallow the food with no chewing.

Unless when its chocolate and just a switch of a button.

She kept chocolate on standby but had to hid it. The child was very good at finding them. Places she doesn't understand how he could reach.

Now trimming was very, very challenging. She had to show him an example since her feet were different. Moxxie did not like it. Well didn't like the idea anyone touching his hooves. Maria can understand that since she knew many who didn't like it either very young. She didn't know how many times the little one kick the trimmers away to trim his hooves. It was always a far, far kick. Sometimes the tools didn't seem to survive. Would have held him down at this point but didn't want the kid too be too scared with her. Plus, she needs to buy trimmers since the last pair got destroyed.

Besides that fun event. Moxxie actually stayed physically close to her! Like grab on her outfit and even the tail. Only for like a few seconds to like minute. But she will take it! Many think she would be exaggerating but they wouldn't understand unless they dealt with a situation similar. Her Mox trusting her!

Now Maria has tried to get Moxxie to wear something different. A few times actually with what she can find at home. But always stayed in that red sweater, baggy shorts, that was under it, and the scarf. She didn't mind but it was getting very dirty and well she wanted to patch up that scarf of his. He was very possessive over that scarf. Even when get like a bath ready he somehow gets them back. It was only pure luck one day to get it and sew it up for him.

Moxxie almost teared up since this was a first anyone ever did this for him. A lot of mix emotions since he usually patches his own clothing.

That was the first time she got him to hear him talk and say in a little quite child voice. "Thank you."

That was tied with one of her best days when he finally held her tail.

So, she decided to let's go to town and find clothes there. Could alter it and all that you know.

Moxxie was either very picky or wanted her to suffer on the shopping trip on purpose.

Error rolled his eyes and quickly pat Maria head. It's not like he can't make his own clothes right now. Well he could but be suspicious how he got the material. Didn't want to touch Maria stuff either. Look around for her sake to see what he could wear.

Eventually found a long sleeve shirt, long pants, and saw some gloves he really like. Now shoes he wasn't sure since his feet were hooves. So, saw some wrappings for now till he figure out something. Maybe can find something for his tail another time too. Walk over to Maria and used his tail to tap her head.

Maria had no comment and just glad he like something.

Paid for the clothes and they went to check the market for any good deals. While Maria was looking at some chickens. Moxxie stayed by her side but was watching a lot of people. To catch how they behave and act since this was really his third time coming out here in the town.

It was very busy with selling. But at the same time food seem to getting ready to be transported out. Lots of violence that's for sure. But in the way either try to rob someone, messed with another pricing, or about to be beaten up. He just saw this very tall imp that own a stand with potatoes and slammed their axe down on an imp head trying to steal his stuff. He like the pig mask.

"Will take those two."

"Alright."

"Okay Mox ready to go?"

Moxxie nods his head and followed her back to the truck.  Then headed straight back home.

Maria went to work cooking one of the chickens. While Moxxie goes to try his new clothes on.

Error put his new clothes on. Satisfied how they fit and comfy. He check his hoofs and tail that was the only thing bare. Besides his face. He couldn't do too much with the hooves but he can at least add a bit of protection. Look them over and grumble when he stared at them.

Dangit.

He really will need to trim them.

Did a bit of research. While it's true he can't feel as much pain. The hooves could mess with his footwork if doesn't take care of it. Doesn't even want to figure out how he would run with a broken hoof. An ankle was bad enough. Or no foot in general till his bones fix itself up.

So, far Maria seems to deal with him and would show him.

Look back at the scarf she stitch up for him. It still was a lot to take in. Not use to this kind of happiness. Along with Moxxie, well his memories that are his, he wasn't as close with his folks. Makes him wonder how a nervous yet one of the sweetest lovey dovey fools got a kick ass being like Millie-Stop thinking like that!

Error clutch his hair and close to his horns. Let the pressure stayed there for a while till he snapped out of it.  Be selfish another time. Stop thinking about your damn pathetic self. This is all different now.

He look back his little tail and pulled out the wrappings.

Maria was pleased how the outfit look. Did blink about the wrappings on the tail. Sure you can wrap it up, sometime see jewelry on it. Just he practically cover the whole thing to not be touch. Really didn't want to be touch skin wise and will need to give the Doc a heads up. The he tugged her sleeve. "What's up Mox?"

He looked down a bit. It was like he was shy. But see a slightly annoyed look as he glared at his hoofs. Kept pointing down at them.

She blink and then it click. "You want them trim?"

A small nod and grumble.

She stared and grin. "Okay after dinner."

Dinner was normal like before.

"Mox! Don't swallow the bone!"

Well as normal as it can be.

Then it was time to trim his hooves. Moxxie out of instinct try to kick them away when they touch him or her hand touching him. Trying to tell himself she trying to not hurt him. She had plenty of time if she wanted to right?

It felt very weird but he watches closely as she explained to him what she was doing. Then she told him about the dirt being built up. Usually can be clean up when he washed. But it was best to use the tool as well too big out the dirt after a certain amount of time. Especially if he began to feel pain. She was going to do this for him for a while till he was able to do it himself. Which will be very soon.

"There we go. Feel better Mox?"

Moxxie move around a bit feeling a bit of difference. Just even tiniest amount can do a lot. He look at her and gave her a thumbs up. Along with a small "Thanks."

Yep good month for Maria indeed.

Moxxie silently agrees as well.

Maybe tonight he can practice his stings on those rats? He still not please what those little ones did. Along with noticing bigger ones been trying to get through the fence to the crops. Along with the many glares they would send him at night time. Like the one right now.

Wait what?

Goes to look out the window and see lots of rats. Just glaring at his direction of the window.

The rats wants vengeance on this new opponent.

Not wanting the to crops but get revenge for sending one of their own in the lava sun. Along not able to steal food or get in the house from a strange force. That Imp will pay! Him and that other one as well that been getting rid of them for years just like her family did. Just to have those carrots and other yummy vegetables.

Weird rats.

Whelp at least he'll be taking care of one of the rodent problem.

Done!

What you all think?

Moxxie vs Rats will be a long battle that will last for ages.

Quick note. Error/Moxxie body is the same way how Error body was a skeleton. Which means he can literally snap away any parts away or summoned them out. He just very use to it and doesn't think he need it. Now that also mean he can change his 'gender' in a way. So, yeah now you know.

Hope you enjoy!

Any questions?

Until next time.

Bye, bye!
