Watermelon and Lime

"Thank you for watching Shogo!"

Anastasia shrugged. "It's fine. " She handed him over to Jubilee but he made grabby motions. "Buh!"

"What?" Jubilee looked from her kid to the direction of his focus... then frowned. "Ok, kid. I get it. You're a "breast man" and mommy doesn't "stack up". Sorry about him."

Anastasia shook her head. "It's fine... and it's possible it's something else."

Jubilee blinked. "Not your tits?"

"Jó fiú vagy?" Anastasia asked.

Shogo made a happy noise while Jubilee stared. "What was that?"

Anastasia smiled. "I asked if he was a good boy. Hungarian. According to Friday he's of Hungarian descent, yes? "

Jubilee nodded. "Yes... he was... an orphan. Do you think... he misses his mother's voice?"

Anastasia shook her head. "No... he was likely far too young. But he might miss the sound of the language that was spoken around him."

Shogo reached out and touched her breast. "Buh!"

Anastasia and Jubilee both laugh. "No... that's my boy," Jubilee sighed. "He's been totally enamored by Jen... same thing with other lady's who have larger "tracts of land"." She rolled her eyes.

Anastasia put her hands on her hips. "You should mind your manners at least around your mother, young man." She smiled. "We can put it to the test if you like?"

Jubilee raised her eyebrows. "Oh? Sure why not?"

Anastasia nodded. "Hey... Xiao Long."

Yang looked up from the book she was reading, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, and asked, "Watcha need?"

"Just come over here for a moment," Anastasia said. "We're testing something."

"Yeah ok 'Baroness'," Yang said and rolled her eyes but got up to walk over anyway. "Well?" She asked crossing her arms behind her head.

Sure enough Shogo's eye's immediately moved towards her bust. "Buh!" He said and laughed.

"I knew it," Jubilee said slightly irritated at further proof of her suspicions.

Anastasia shook her head. "Just stand there a moment... Neo? Would you come stand on my other side a moment?"

Neo looked up from the table but she nodded and walked over. Shogo was transfixed by Yangs boobs... until Neo walked by. He immediately started babbling excitedly. When Neo moved closer he reached for her face laughing. "Mama Gen!"

Gwen looked up and walked over and he got even more excited. He touched their heads and hair. "What?" Jubilee said. "Pink is better than breasts? Is that why you like when I wear my pink shirt, kid? I thought it was because my tits looked bigger because it's okd and small?"

Shogo laughed happily. But then something stole his focus conpletely. Ilulu came in the room with a bowl of cookies on top of her head excitedly. "Roberta said we could have these!"

Sasha zipped over and then Nora bounced by in her pink outfit. "Score!"

Shogo was transfixed. "Buh! Mama!"

Jubilee, Anastasia, Yang, Neo and Gwen didn't need a translation. Pink and massive boobs for the win.

"Well," Jubilee said. "That's my boy."

"Booze?"

Walt blinked. He looked up from the watermelons he was looking at and in the direction Glynda was looking. "I don't think so. I picked up bunches for the party we had... unless there's something you'd like specifically?"

Glynda shook her head. "Not particularly. I just thought I'd ask. Did you decide?"

Walt nodded. "Yeah. I think these melons are pretty good. I'd rather wait a little longer and get them at the fruit stand but as hot as it's been it's not time yet. We'll buy them there later in the season but lets get these now." He gave the melons another feel before he started putting several in the cart. "I think these are pretty good. They'll be a nice treat either tonight or tomorrow... while I grab these do you mind getting the vegetables?"

Glynda shook her head and checked the list. "Not at all. Leave it to me."

Walt smiled as she located tge ingredients on their list and used her semblance. Just like the time he went shopping with Raven... having a telekinetic shopping assistant sure was handy. However...

"What did you say?!" Glynda asked outraged.

The youngman smiled at her. He looked her up and down in a lascivious manner. "I asked you how much for a go? Come on. With that riding crop and that sexy little outfit you must either be working or a slut. I'll make it worth your while!"

Glynda was disgusted and felt insulted. "You are mistaken,'sir'. Leave me immediately!"

her admirer grinned. "Ooh... a haughty bitch? I like that even better! Very kinky. Do you like pretending that way so you can get broken good and proper?"

Glynda tightened her grip on Disciplinarian angrily. She wanted to teach this cur a lesson... but she remembered the rules. She wasn't allowed to attack others except when given permission or in self-defense. Even then she'd likely be in trouble with Prime Law. She only had rights as Walters personal property. Not as a person. Attacking another Prime, even in self-defense, was serious business. She could get Walter in trouble too if she wasn't careful-

"I've got money," he said. "Come on give us a taste!" The man grabbed her hand... and Walt loomed over him and grabbed his wrist.

"Excuse me, son," he said and squeezed hard. There was the sound of popping. "You shouldn't touch things that don't belong to you."

"My arm!" The cocky jerk howled. "Quit it you old fuck or I'll have to get rough with you too after I teach this cunt a les- ohnnn..." Glynda couldn't help but smile as the man let go of her hand after Walt kneed him in the groin. His eye's crossed in pain he started to slump to his knees.

Walt frowned down at him. But he wasn't done as he pulled the young mans arm up behind his back forcing him to painfully stay on the toes of his feet. "That was less than courteous."

The young buck groaned painfully, "Do you have any idea who I am?"

Walt calmly uttered. "Do you have any idea how little I care?"

Glynda was surprised there were quite a few people around them. Some were other shoppers, some were store employees and some were obviously neither judging by their baring. *Underciver 3S agents on the scene,* She realized. She could just barely make out some of the things Walt whispered into the young mans ear. "You could use a lesson in manners... and I'm half tempted to let her teach you them..." his face grew pale as Walt kept whispering and a manager hustled their direction and Walt concluded. "... and then I'd reinforce that lesson by..." Glynda smiled.

"Is there a problem here?" The Malmart manager asked nervously.

Glynda nodded and adjusted her glasses while remembering what she'd read of Prime law. "Apologies for the disturbance. This man propositioned me in an unwelcome way without my owners consent, then assaulted me physically infront of my legal owner when he was rebuffed. These people are witnesses."

Several people immediately speak up in the affirmative of that. The manager wipes at the sweat on his brow but Glynda gave him credit as he didn't hesitate. "I see. That's most unfortunate. Young man, I'll have to ask you to leave the store. Do I need to call the authorities?"

Walt shrugged. "I don't think so Though I'd appreciate a copy of your security footage just to corroborate my own, just to be on the safe side if you don't mind. I'm willing to settle for a simple apology rather than let the justice system get involved however?"

The manager nodded. "Certainly! Well...?"

Walt let go of the young man. He straightened his not so slick looking suit. It's true characters had no rights as people anymore, just property. That being said they were valuable property. Prime law was pretty strict about about it. Many lawmakers owned "personal relief characters". Some of the laws interpretations were getting stricter all the time judicially speaking. Nobody liked 'poachers'. "I-" his voice squeaked and he stopped to swallow. "I a-apologize for m-my actions... I was in the w-wrong..."

Walt looked at Glynda and raised an eyebrow. She smiled. He really was a 'good' sort. "Sixty-four out of a hundred. Final grade... a D minus."

Walt smiled. "Well looks like you just barely passed. Good for you. Get out of our sight... now."

The man flinched and quickly moved away towards the exit. The manager turned to their audience. "Sorry for the disturbance folks. Nothing more to see." Turning back to Glynda and Walt. "Is there anything we can do to make up for the disturbance? I didn't want to make a scene but... we all know who you are. We appreciate 3S's continued patronage. Having the base right there's a goodly portion of our business..."

Walt smiled and shook his head. "Oh no. Should be thanking you all really. I like Malmart. Yall are just fine! Sorry for taking up your time."

The manager smiles and lets out a breath of relief. "Thanks for saying so! We'll leave you too it then!"

Glynda smiled as they continued shopping. "You could have handled that differently you know?"

Walt nodded looking for something then taking it off the shelf and placing it in the cart. "Yep."

Glynda shook her head. "You did it that way for my sake then?"

Walt shrugged as they turned down another aisle. "Yes and no. I can't abide that kind of behavior. Could've happened to anyone, really. But it was minor 'trouble' this time. That's just how it goes sometimes... I might have been a bit harder because it was you but I would have stepped into the situation for anyone, Character or otherwise. No call for that kind of behavior. Let's see we need... Cheesy Poofs? Again?! We got so many last time..."

Glynda smiled. "Nora, Sasha and Ilulu."

Walt sighed and started grabbing a bunch. "Good point. We didn't have Nora last time. Better stuck up on some other snacks too. Thank goodness we got Ilulu instead of Elma."

Glynda smiled. "Why is she more gluttonous?"

Walt chuckled and nodded. "Yes... but like Ilulu and others from their franchise she's also sweet. She'd be 'unintentionally problematic' but a good person and a hard worker. 3S owns a few of the main bunch of Dragon Maid characters but most are on other bases. Having too many together, too often is where the trouble starts. Still Elma's work hard for food. Tohru's work hard for Kobayashi. Luccoa... well. It depends..."

Glynda nodded. "So we don't have any at the main home base?"

Walt sighed grabbing some Wonka Bars and other snacks and candies for Team Snack Club or whatever they were calling themselves now. "We do but when I asked if he wanted to come play with her he told me, "I have no interest in such things" and then asked if I had the latest games for him. He's such a pain. I don't think he's left his hole for awhile... but that's what makes him happy and that's kind of his job... I've been trying to setup a "play date" with some other owners but that hasn't gone well... they're looking for a different kind of "play dates"."

Glynda nodded. Walt wasn't that kind of man... and Ilulu seemed pretty happily infatuated. She wouldn't want that either. After grabbing a few more things they turned down another aisle, this time looking for the Funistrada. "Walter?"

"Yes, Glynda?" He asked.

"It's just us... how do you really feel?" She asked. "About everyone I mean."

Walt blinked. "I love you all. You're my dear precious friends, family and more. You know that, right?" He took her hand. "I'm sorry if I haven't made that clearer."

Glynda shook her head. "No... I think everyone has figured that much out. It's just..."

Walt smiled. "It's a strange situation?"

Glynda nodded and smiled. "It is... especially for those of us you helped. This world is so very different and you "saved" us from different and admittedly worse situations. You have been "good" to everyone... but you're still our "owner". We're nothing but property here."

Walt nodded. "You're not wrong... and I see you've been doing some studying about your situation and that's good. It all comes down to the individual "owner" and how they treat Characters. I could do anything I want to you all, legally speaking. Chain Penny to the bed or Kali to the kitchen. Use Ilulu like a footstool or make you whip and dominate your former students. I could force Sienna to do hard labor, Yang and Nora to fight for my amusement and prostitute Blake for gain. Some do just that and much worse... and that's their legal right."

He smiled. "But I don't. I don't like that stuff. I have no interest in those things. I love Penny and she brought all of you into my life... our lives. I enjoy your company. I enjoy the way you think. I love how you still help your students and the others. I love talking with you, hearing your thoughts and generally just being around you. I love... uh, I..." he blushes realizing the direction his distracted rambling was taking and coughed then cleared his throat. "*Ahem* Sorry I like spending time and sharing my life with all of you. I honestly hope that you'd all feel the same and I do the things I do trying to make that so. If there's anything lacking that's in my power to give please say so. I know the situation is less than ideal- what's so funny?"

Glynda had started to laugh. Genuinely laugh. "Oh no! Hohohohoo! It's n-nothing! Hehehehehe!"

Walt smiled and shrugged. "If you say so." She had a beautiful laugh. She was a lovely person generally speaking and very attractive even when angry... but she was much prettier when she was happy. She looked... younger. Girlish even. It was a nice contrast from stern, serious Glynda. He felt certain that while older than her students she was still quite young herself. Being "stern and serious Proffesor Goodwitch" and Ozpins righthand woman had made her seem older than she was. This was a bit of a glimpse into who Glynda had been before adopting such a persona for so long. Like Kali she might have once had different hopes and aspirations for herself.

They hit the beverages aisle and he grabbed some Sunset Sarsaparilla's for himself. He'd likely be up to his eyeballs in Nuka when he went through the Fallout instance. "Did you always want to be a teacher?"

Glynda shook her head. "Not really. I was top of my class and established a name for myself as a young Huntress quickly... but then Ozpin recruited me. I needed to be near the school and have access to it that wouldn't raise any suspicions. I... I don't think I was very good at it in the beginning."

Walt raised an eyebrow. "That so?"

She nodded and started grabbing some more items from their list. "Yes... I knew the subjects and was qualified to teach of course. I worked hard to maintain that... but I couldn't be like Oobleck or Port. I struggled to find 'my' teaching style that wouldn't interfere with the others."

Walt nodded. "And at the sametime become Oz's "righthand" so you became the disciplinarian type?"

Glynda sighed and nodded. "Perhaps too much. It was certainly effective and I always had a... 'cool' demeanor but I didn't used to be quite so stern. I fear it drove some students away... but it was necessary."

Wakt nodded. "I quite agree." He saw her give him a questioning look. "I do. You all call yourselves 'professors' and that it is a school, which it is. But you're not merely teaching subjects. You're creating warriors. The reason Atlas Academy was as successful as it was was because it worked hand in hand with the Atlasian Military. Perhaps a bit too closely but there's a natural overlap there. Soldiers and Hunters. You had to train them for battle. You needed to be both teacher and combat instructors. That's not as easy to accomplish as some might think. I think you did well."

"You do?" She asked surprised.

Walt nodded. "Look at how far your pupils have come? You didn't have time to give them all a full instruction unfortunately. But most survived. Thrived, even. They took yours and the others basic teachings to heart. Saw the value in what you tried to impart. It saved quite a few of their lives. Helped them save other lives and make a difference. And now they're here and continuing to grow and learn and develop. Be proud of that Glynda. You did a good job. Thank you for that."

Glynda smiled. He was in the same business after a fashion. Instruction and training were a huge part of what 3S did. She'd witnessed it in their classes. Each instructor had their differences and personal style but all approached the business of teaching seriously. He understood the need for seriousness and commitment to students and trainees. "Thank you. That means a lot coming from you."

Walt smiled. "You're very welcome, Glynda." He stared into her green eyes. They really were quite- "lovely."

Glynda blushed. "Excuse me?!"

Walt blinked then blushed too. "Er, Sorry. Your eyes. Uhm... green! I mean I like green!" He hurried pushing the cart around the corner and-

"Oh, ok!" Said Hotaru Shidare passing him something with green jelly on it and several green things into Glynda's hand. "You've got good taste. The lime flavored ones are really pretty tasty! If you like the samples please buy some!"

Walt blinked at the green jelly thing and the random encounter. Looks like they had the pretty purple haired snack fanatic Hotaru handing out product samples... but of-

"W-What is the meaning of this?!" Glynda asked looking at the skimpy lime green panties in her hand.

"They're edible and quite tasty," Hotaru said helpfully. "As is the lube I gave your owner. A sexy and fun snack for your bedroom time is always a good idea! Wear them and you'll be a tasty treat yourself for your owner as well!"

Walt almost facepalmed but remembered the flavored lube in his hand. They'd accidentally turned the corner into- "Great we've blundered into the "sex toys" section!"
