I Hurt Myself Today

With his birthday came new freedoms - he was allowed to leave the pits and the dancefloor! Though, the small boy had yet to act on these new freedoms he'd been given unlike his sisters. You could call him nervous, and he was, but only because he was so small! He needed someone big and strong to adventure with, you know, in case things went south. Maybe even someone to carry him through the puddles! Medusa and Widow wouldn't carry him around forever, they'd already made that clear, so he just needed to find someone else to do it! That couldn't be so hard, right? Almost everyone here was bigger than him!

Phantasm wasn't actually out on the hunt for a chauffeur when he saw one of the younger Klein kids slinking off. His head tilted curiously as he watched. He was huge. Not like Widow, but close! Maybe he could be his new friend and pony?  "Hey! Wait up!" He called out to the mottled boy, actually running to close the distance between them in case his tiny, squeaky voice hadn't been heard. He didn't even consider that this other boy looked like they wanted to be left alone even as he slowed his approached as he got near.

He couldn't immediately remember the other kids name though. He was certain he was one of the youngest Klein kids now, but his name was escaping him. He was panting to catch his breath (this boy doesn't run), though a loose smile curved the corners of his mouth up as his tail wagged friendly behind him, completely oblivious to Enki's depressed state. "Do you wanna go on an adventure?" he asked, tongue hanging from his mouth as he looked up at the taller boy.

"Speech!"
