No you may not adopt him! I forbid it! XD

"What are you two doing?!" shouted Nami when she woke up to find the two blue-haired twins in her room holding a pink dress.
"Shhh.. It's not for you." Said Teresa, putting her hands on her hips. Dailah was holding a struggling Prothero still as he curled up in a ball defensively. Something was off about the creature that was so desperately trying to curl up into a defensive position..
"You can't put him in a dress! He's a he! Don't do that..." said Nami, puling Prothero out of Dailah's death grip. Prothero stayed curled up, but Nami now saw the changes that had occurred in the young animal's body.
"he changed... meaning we'll have to stat giving him clothes. We've been trying for an hour now and he just kicks them off and curls up in a ball. He's ripped eight pairs of pants, eight shirts and now he's tearing up the dress we got him too..." whined Teresa, folding her arms and pouting.
Prothero had indeed changed. And he knew it. he had combed down his hair to make it seem less... unruly, his eyes were now a pale light blue, his clawed hands looked much more normal, and his skin was now a light tan color. his nose had changed from two holes to an actual nose and his ears now were more rounded and less pointy. He looked almost human.
He rapidly shook his head when Teresa tried to slip on yet another pair of pants and he hid behind Nami, unwilling to try this new device. Just like a child in his mere second year of life, Prothero would end up throwing his clothes on the floor and try to get away from those trying to clothe him in the first place.
"Wow... you improved! That's good. But you do need some clothes, Prothero..." said Nami as Prothero pouted. anything for her... of course he'd do it if he asked her to. Still... he wasn't gonna like it.
Prothero had allowed himself to be forced into a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt. However, it didn't stop him from trying to scratch at the new material on his skin. Why did humans put on these uncomfortable objects. All Prothero knew was that he no longer felt as free as he used to.
"He almost looks like a normal kid.. except he's hunched over. And freakishly tall.... Even though his back makes him look like he has scoliosis, he's still a head taller than you." said Dailah, quite satisfied with her handy work. "Of course we'll have to give him a hair cut... and brush his teeth.. and for the love of all that is holy he needs a good bath."
Prothero tilted his head to the side. Brush? Haircut?... Bath? These words were new and strange to him. But from how much he hated being clothed, he knew he'd hate these other things as well...
"Don't you have training to get to?" asked Teresa as Nami looked at Prothero with pure sympathy.
"well.. yeah.. just... go easy on him he doesn't... like being touched." replied nami uneasily as she left the room. Prothero started to follow, but was stopped by Dailah.
"No, 'little' guy... You're with us for the day." she said with a smirk on her face. Prothero made a face that obviously said 'hell to the no,' but Teresa merely laughed at him. He'd have to put up with the duo for now...
"So you're saying... Prothero's evolving?" asked Nami once she'd reached the training grounds. Kagura was sitting on a bench, sharpening a sword.
"Indeed.. and very impressively at that. If he's changed as much as you say he has.. then he may become a valuable ally.. oh and he'll start being well respected too if he can speak." said Kagura as she put the sword down. "But you know-"
"I know. Never get your hopes up. But I think he'll do alright.. he understands what we say... or at least I think he does... and he knows right from wrong." said Nami with a small smile.
"But here... he'll need to learn friend from foe as well. They'll earn his trust and turn on him in a heartbeat.. He may have to learn that the hard way. But he stays pretty close to you... so he should be alright, right?"
"... Kagura. " said Nami, not responding to her new friend's question.
"If Prothero is evolving... could we... ever..."
"Take him out in public?" asked Kagura, earning a nod from Nami. "well... You wanna see the results of that? we'd only have to try... We will see... but you know... If he turns on us... you'll have to choose. By the way... who's side would you pick? A violent beast or us? Or is there a difference? What to do.. what to do.." she continued, now smiling.
Nami's eyes darkened slightly. If that did happen, she would have to make a difficult choice... Now this girl had turned Cheshire cat on her and was speaking in riddles... Fun. She wondered how Prothero was doing with the two terrible twins...
