"Alright, Maks, you find your siblings," Kesil said to the toddler. He said this lackadaisically but his sight hadn't left the babe as he toddled towards the escaping children. Magnus made his way to a makeshift barrier and stopped at it. He then started calling, "Bear! Row-z!"
The man chuckled, he swears it never gets old. He might actually miss when Magnus wouldn't be able to pronounce names. The toddler kept calling as children flooded out to either reach their busses or to come to their pickup. Of course, he picked them out rather easily but said nothing, letting the kids have their fun.
Blair likely picked up on Magnus' anticipation first. Much like his mother's ability, it worked easier with those he knew. As soon as he looked, Roza picked up on the direction and was off. Magnus bobbled up and down as he noticed the blurs that were his brother and sister. He called faster until Roza managed to scoop the toddler into her arms. Laughter pealed from them as Blair came up to help haul the toddler...to him like they were hauling him off the field.
"Papa!" Blair called as he zoned in on where he was. Kesil gave a casual wave and paid no mind to the looks. If not his looks, it was the rambunctiousness of his kids. To which, better now than later. He ruffled the boy's hair, "Pup, see you and your sister have brought quite the haul."
As if knowing that he meant him, Magnus cheered as he reached up towards his father. Kesil chuckled, "And you found them. Alright, now that the gang's here, let's go. Your mom's probably gonna be waiting."

TFW your twenty-tonne superior officer faints dramatically into your arms (and then cusses you out for touching him)

another quick doodle barf of Na'vi Quaritch and his boy Spider in scale. I know in the movie he carried Spider like a sack of potatoes BUT he can definitely lift him like this in one arm (aint this a cool position too Colonel? dont be shy...)
and it would look so cute like BRUH I CANT GET ENOUGH OF THE SIZE DIFFERENCE.

<you'll never know maybe he has done this already during their bonding time when that feral boy finally calmed the hell down for once and IM SURE Quaritch ain't missing the chance>

Anyway, regarding my previous post, this is the best tactical arrangement for many reasons.

there’s a question to be asked i think about to what extent “getting out” can be conflated with “being saved” in this show, and what freedom actually means to any of these characters.
like you can argue that shiv saved ken by voting against him on gojo, but what if your intent behind saving someone is to inflict a worse punishment than if you’d just left them trapped? can a child weaned on poison survive on milk, or are you just sentencing them to a death by inches, starved of the only thing they know? and if you save someone specifically because you know that being saved is the worst thing that can happen to them, is that kindness or cruelty? at what point does a good thing become a malicious act?
and you can say that roman is finally free, but what exactly is he free from? the company? his father? does unlocking a cage mean saving a dog, or are you allowing him out on the street knowing there’s a kill shelter nearby? if the driving anxiety behind roman is that he’s an idiot and a failure—that he’ll never amount to anything, and trying will only lead to pain—and he’s finally cut loose once all of those anxieties have crystallized into cold hard fact in his mind, what has he actually escaped from? if the cage is in your mind, is it even possible for somebody else to unlock it?
the fundamental truth of a tragedy is that even being saved can be a death sentence, if the characters are incapable of escaping the thing doing them the most harm (themselves and their childhoods)
