Saiyuki ficlet - Sweet baby Sanzo

Ficlet for [livejournal.com profile] cygny, who suggested: Sanzo is put under a spell and starts behaving as a baby/child/teenager. I chose baby. Well, he actually turns into one, not just behaves like one.



'Sanzo!'

But Goku was too late to pull him from the path of the weapon the youkai had thrown. There was an explosion; an odd dull sound that made their ears pop. It was more an implosion if anything and Sanzo was caught in the centre, his figure dark against a shining blue-white flash that made their eyes ache,  and then he was gone.

When their vision had cleared they saw that Sanzo was in fact still there. He just a lot smaller.

'Holy shit,' Gjoyo said, with feeling. 'Is that-- ? It can't be true. Look at him! Fuck!'

'Language, Gojyo' Hakkai said, absently, one hand pressed to his mouth. 'Oh dear,' he said, eventually, although now he was smiling.

'Ahhh,' Goku breathed. 'He's so cute!'

He ran forwards before they could stop him.  On the ground at his feet, swathed in Sanzo's robe,  lay a blond haired, purple eyed young child.  He was waving his chubby fists in a gesture eerily like Sanzo's when he took his fan to Goku's head. As they watched, his plump face began to wobble and then went red and simultaneously screwed itself up to emit an ear-shattering, furious wail. Goku backed off slightly, looking round at them for help. Sanzo carried on wailing at full volume.

'That's him all right,' Gojyo muttered, sticking a finger in his ear.

'Maybe he wants to be picked up, Goku,' Hakkai said. 'It can't be nice for him being down there.'

He was laughing now, and doing badly at hiding it. Gojyo joined in and when Goku swept Baby Sanzo into his arms and began to coo, Gojyo began to laugh so hard that eventually he was forced to lie down on the ground, clutching his stomach from the pain of it.  Hakkai had to administer some well placed kicks to get him to stop.

Sanzo had stopped wailing as soon as Goku picked him up and was busy glaring at him from a range of 5 inches. His face was pulled into a confused scowl. Goku angled the child towards them.

'Look, he's got the same eyes and nose and everything. Oh, look at his tiny fingernails. And toes!'

Sanzo gurgled and thwapped Goku on the nose with his fist.

'Ow. But you can still hit good,' Goku said.

'I wonder if Jeep can do a baby car seat,' Hakkai mused. 'We really should find an inn so we can care for him properly. He'll be hungry soon.'

He went nearer and held out a finger. Sanzo clutched on to it fiercely and met his eyes with a wide, open gaze.

'He's certainly strong, even at this age,' Hakkai said, softly. 

Gojyo came up behind him, peeping over Hakkai's shoulder. The child crowed at him. It was impossible to tell if he knew them, but his immense scowl implied that he might.

'Hello Sanzo,' Gojyo said, a little awkwardly. 'Hell, we can't call him Sanzo,' he said 'It's just not right for a baby.'

'Well, what shall we call him then?' said Hakkai.

There was a pause, during which the child bit Hakkai's finger.

'Kouryuu,' said Goku.

They both turned to look at him. He looked shy.

'It was his name, before he was a sanzo. He told me once.'

'It's not like he can shoot us, so we might as well.'

'Hey, he's heavy,' Goku groaned. 'Hold him, Hakkai.'

'Ah, well. Gojyo,' Hakkai said.

'What? Not me. Why should I have to deal with his sorry babyfied ass?' but Goku was pushing Kouryuu at him and Hakkai was standing by, smiling as though he'd won the lottery.

Sanzo looked up at him and screamed in a happy, piercing sort of way. His plump fingers closed around red hair and tugged hard.

'Ow! No hair pulling,' Gojyo said, wrestling with tiny fingers. 'Damn he's strong for a midget.'

'He's easier to handle at this size,' Hakkai said, laughing. 'Shall we keep him in this state?'

'Yeah!' Goku said. 'He can't get us with the fan like this.'

'No way am I cleaning up Sanzo-sick,' Gojyo warned, bouncing the child in his arms and making him shriek. Gojyo smiled down at him, then his grin faded. 'Or changing his nappy.'

The three of them looked at each other thoughtfully for a moment.

'We'd better find an antidote to this spell as soon as possible,' Hakkai said.

'Yeah!' said Goku. 'We shouldn't waste any time.'

'Agreed. Let's go, quickly. Come along Gojyo.'

'Hey, wait. You're not going to leave him with me. Why do I have to carry him?'

Sanzo leaned forward and was neatly sick on Gojyo's shoulder.

Gojyo with a baby (especially even a cranky baby Sanzo) may possibly be the cutest thing ever. *squee!* ♥

Because, Gojyo, even though Hakkai plays the mama role, everyone knows that you're his bitch. That's why you have to hold the baby. Because Hakkai told you to.

Why should I have to deal with his sorry babyfied ass?

...I do believe you have coined a new word. Babyfied. Awesome.

This cracked me the hell up. Thank you. XD
