Impasse
"Kamaka Moon, you come down from the ceiling this instant,” Tana Moon said sternly, craning her neck to look at her child. “It’s bedtime!”
Kamaka shook their head sharply and pressed more into the high corner of the room. “Not sleepy! No bed!” Despite the proclamation, Kamaka couldn’t stop a yawn.
"I am not going to ask you again." Tana folded her arms over her chest and tapped her foot once against the hardwood floor. "One."
"I would do what she tells you, Kam honey," Kon-El Moon warned as he walked into the living room where the confrontation was taking place, sounding quietly amused.
"Two!" Tana said, with another tap of her foot.
Kamaka glared down at their parents with a mighty pout on their little brown face. Kon quirked up an eyebrow at the fierce expression. He didn’t even need to glance at his wife to know that she was matching their child’s expression almost exactly.
And then Kamaka stuck their tongue out at both parents.
Tana sucked a breath in sharply through her nose. And Kon knew that Kamaka had pushed just a little too far. He reached his tactile telekinesis through the floor and up the wall, grabbing on to Kamaka and propelling the child downward as though on an invisible elevator. Kamaka squealed with surprise — but no fear — and their less developed TTK poked at the stronger kinetic force wrapped around them.
"I don’t know why you don’t want to sleep, Kamaka," Kon said, walking slowly toward the child, "but you know not to make rude faces to Mommy and Daddy."
Hearing the disappointment in Daddy’s voice made Kamaka’s defiant expression crumple. “S-sorry, Mommy! Sorry, Daddy!”
Tana approached too, her voice more gentle than before. “Why ‘no bed’, darling?”
"Monsters!"
"Oh, Kamaka," Kon said with a little laugh, as he scooped up their child and hugged them tight for a moment. "Don’t you know? There’s no monsters in our house. Mommy scares them away."
