So I'm not really sure exactly which forum this belongs in, so if it needs movin, feel free to relocate it.
Anyway, last night's New Years Eve, we're gonna shoot off some fireworks and all that, so of course I'm bringin my camera bag. It just so happens that my River Children Tokoji Seijin kinda lives in my camera bag, because he's pretty much my favorite toy. After snapping some pics of friends & family, out comes the Tokoji for some shots with the fireworks - but obviously not close enough to any of them to take any damage.
I take some shots, get up to change lenses, and hear my friend yell "oh shit, don't touch that!" and turn around to see his nephew by Tokoji. The kid's been goin crazy with the punks you use to light the fuses, waving it all over the place, and using it like a toy sword. He decided to poke my Tokoji in the eye.
WTF do I do about that? What CAN I do about that? I know better than to scold some 4-5 year old kid and be a dick and rain on everyones new years eve, so I just put him back in the bag, and grumble. But what would you do - with the toy? I scored it at a cheap price, and would be MUCH more pissed if I bought it for like $100.. but do I try to fix it? All I could think of to do was make him a little eye patch
because I think color-matching that neon paint in the eye would be a tough task..Anyway, suggestions? Advice? I need it. I'm still ticked
Tokoji goes anywhere and everywhere my camera goes, and I try to stick him in a scene of ANYTHING I think is cool enough to photograph. It's also funny that this is the eye on his right side, and it seems a vast majority of my Tokoji pics have been of his left side, lol. Actually, over my Christmas trip, I kept my Shikaruna Siberian Beast in the same bag with him, and the tips of the horns had the white rub off, and I didnt care - but Tokoji's the vinyl version "My Buddy" to me 
lol
