#((buddy your ground for till college for this u_u))

[ducknotinarow]

Buddy was sat at the Kitchen table, faint smirk tugging onto their beak. They're aware what they're doing; being a big petty brat, much like their dad - but this was revenge. Embarrass them in front of their date will they!?

On the table, a large StarDucks cup, the logo as clear as day. Inside though? NESTCafé's on, Buddy was petty but they weren't going to subject themselves to that sludge - they'd sooner drink toilet water.

Eyes flicker up when their papá walks in, Buddy merely smiling, acting innocent; dad had taught them well, unfortunately. Taking a hold of their cup, Buddy drinks from it casually, knowing what sins they were currently committing in their home,

"Good morning papá~" Buddy greets as if nothing was wrong, "Hope you don't mind, but I felt like something a little different today~" Papá didn't need to know what was really in the cup, "I'd get you one but I know you don't really like Starducks, yanno, it's not that bad~"

The lowest of all blows, maybe Buddy took it too far there. Oh well, can't really take that back now. Standing up from their chair, cup still in hand, Buddy merely smiles as they walk towards them,

"Yanno, maybe I'll take my date there next time, considering when I brought them here you and dad made things awkward."

This is assuming Buddy will be allowed out of the house ever again.

Richard lightly stroked fingers over his once fully dark ebony hair, now greying in places showing his age, as he tried to ease away the throb in his head, eyes closed for an attempt to get the need of a bit more rest as he made his way to the kitchen. Years spent drinking about twenty cups during the day alone habit hadn't changed in his older years. Richard knew the difference between his headache and this one was from withdrawal of the caffeine he pretty much had going through his blood stream at all times. Letting talons drag across the floor, tail feathers hung a little lower he wasn't all that awake yet. Part of him thought about make a latte or even a cappcino maybe? Not like he didn't have all the bell and wishlet at home todo so now. Even if Bailey complained about how the kitchen seemed to near have a mini café in it.

Richard had only stopped on his way into to the kitchen when he spotted Buddy sat at the kitchen table by themself cup of coffee in hand as they offered thier papá a what he at first read as a bright and beaming smile. Seemed they got up and about first.

"Good morning papá~"

Richard went to nod his head thier way before answering them with a greeting themself only to do a double take. He was certien that was a Starducks logo on the cup in his home, being held by his son! Even worse because now Richard recognized the smile they were giving as the shock of it seemed enough to jog his brain now. That was the unmistable grin of a brat. Knowing they exactly what they were doing and waiting for Richard to witness it. The main reason behind thier crime!

"Hope you don't mind, but I felt like something a little different today~"

Richard beak near fell open left agagpe, eyes narrowing on the dreaded logo of the company he lothed more than anything in the world. Well feathers lifting awake now only to bristle up at the sight alone! Didn't mind Buddy very well knew Richard did in fact mind and a lot at that!!

"I'd get you one but I know you don't really like Starducks, yanno, it's not that bad~"

Having it at all was bad in it's self, bring it into the house or café was a step up but Buddy his son the one who used to drink his coffee all the time claimed that poisonous sludge to not be that bad! oh no that had to be one of the worse things to ever be stated and simply because it was Buddy who said it to him just now. Buddy moved out from thier seat cup still in hand as they made thier way over to Richard now, committed to thier act as they smiled at Richard. Yeah they had learned just as much from Bailey as they had RIchard with how they held thier grin.

"Yanno, maybe I'll take my date there next time, considering when I brought them here you and dad made things awkward."

That was it.

"CHIQUITO!" was all Richard excalimed in a single breath followed by the click of his tongue "You're date is really going to find it awkward when I charge full steam ahead into that god forsaken bussniess" from how the eagle spoke of the company one would think it was in the less favorable parts of the city and not just a simple coffee chain."A take you right out of there. And don't think I can't" A slight poke given to Buddy's shoulder not roughly or anything more to physically act out Richard was being serious with his threat. "I still lug your father around and you know more than half his weight is in his feathers alone. So I will rush in that building, bulldoze past everyone in the lobby and pick you up and lift over my shoulder just to get you out of that building Chiquito" Middle name used twice now just to show that Buddy hand't just gotten Richard worked up but no they had successful made him mad just now. Teenage rebellion or not Richard was not going to let Buddy get away with his crimes today. "No child of MINE is going to be a pateron of that morally bankuprt corparte cesspool, that would rather throw in as many buildings, kiosks, stand whatever else when ever they fucking can over making an actually good product well upcharging his value of being nothing more than hot steamed milk and sugar!" That got a bit personal fast Richard moving back now turning away from the kitchen, he didn't even want coffee anymore Buddy had ruin his want for it. Stopping only to turn around and comsicate the mug from Buddy's hand. Now he was going back into the kitchen once more, to get rid of the evidence behind Buddy's crime. Standing over by the sink as he started to tip the cup forward letting the coffee pour out, the biggest sin Richard himself had ever commented in his own years. "I can't believe you would go and buy this crap let alone a mug for that company? Supporting such a literal vulture." Clicking his tongue as he verbally 'tsk' at his son heading to the kitchen to get rid of the coffee. "Dad and I are going have to take you to see that Duck and Chicken that help with you adjustments, get your head checked out clearly you hit in one of those fights you go in-"

Richard was going on to say only to pause in the middle of his speech, as he was pouring the coffee down the sink he caught a whiff of it expected that dull sugar scent only to pick up on. A aromatic full scent a very famillair one seeing how Richard often carried the same scene mixed with his cologe but Richard knew it. Pulling his arm back now as he lifted the cup to his beak taking in the smell again just needing to be sure. He eyed it for a moment before taking a sip of the possible poison...he knew this blend. It was one of his blends. Richard became silence all together, deathly so. Least till his tail feathers flared out, Richard nearly slamming the mug to the counter.

"Buddy Chiquito Evans-Alder" Full name now, not only had they tricked Richard and acted a brat they did far worse. "Did you put my coffee into a mug with that mans logo on it?" Richard didn't need an answer of course, he had the proof. Bills of his beak repeatedly click as he stood up fully now leaving the mug at the counter arms crossed over his chest as he looked at his son. "You'll have plenty of time for dates it seems, because you not working a single shift this week at the Café. Okay for most that might not be a punishment but Richard knew Buddy enjoyed working at the café so for Buddy it was.
