40th Teddy Bear [Action/Video]

[Over a month ago, Elicia lost her mother. Months before that, she'd lost her father. It was a difficult step-by-step process, adjusting to the new life in her home. It was Edward and Winry, and a room that felt like blasphemy to touch. She'd go in there sometimes to sit on the bed and read or nap, as if compelled by some force she didn't quite understand. But things were getting easier, and smiles weren't so hard to muster; in fact, they came naturally again. With the help of some good friends—'family', by all means—she's been keeping up with her gardening, writing letters to a family who doesn't live here anymore, drawing for a gallery...

To be honest, she's overly excited about the idea of a gallery.

Let's see what's going on, today:

» ELICIA VISION INITIATED

(There's rubble all around her. As she breathes in, hot and tired, on her knee, a robot as large as a truck walks slowly toward her. Her lungs feel needy, and her suit is covered in black marks as she rises back up to her feet.

"Save us, Iron Lion!!" Edward cries from the cage at her right, clutching the bars with a nervous expression that matches the other trapped souls (Pepper, holding her hands to her chest in worry; Sanji, face shadowed in a really shounen way; Sheena, holding her arm and hissing; among other mighty heroes). Miss Raine is healing Sailor Cicada, who took a hit in her stead. "Win for me, Sailor Lion!"


An accurate depiction of the Iron Lion in Elicia's head.
She looks over, suit's eyes aglow, and nods.

The robot laughs, voice electronic and cold, and aims his giant rocket arms in her direction.

"You'll never beat my arsenal...!"

She clenches her fist and teeth, glowering behind her mask.

"There's nothing my lasers can't break through!! I'll do it for the village! Haaa—!!")

ELICIA VISION, DEACTIVATED.

Aaaand in reality? A child is leaping around at imaginary things in front of her house to protect her gardening equipment. And yeah, all that dialogue is being spoken by her, working her pitch to match the person talking.]

I'll save you!! Don't worry, Iron Lion'll never give up!

[How she really looks isn't as cool as that image in her head... but hey, she's more back to normal instead of moping, at least. So much so that she runs around wearing a familiar looking red and gold helmet she'd gotten for her birthday, making woosh noises and putting her hands out like she's shooting things. And then every so often she jumps and there's a little gust of wind all around her feet when she lands, filial magic at its most handy for playing imaginary. This robot? He's going down. In her head. Whatever. It's intense, okay!!

Then a little later, Elicia—still in costume—can also be seen pushing the side of her head against the ground, as if listening for something.]


[Voice]

Hello, everyone! My name is Elicia! If you just got here, don't worry; I'm a superhero and I can help as much as I can. There's lots of good heroes here that will answer you if you need—um, um... if you need aid! Aid and rescue. I can heal you if you have scrapes and bruises, too!

[Hey, she's not wearing the toy helmet now, but she is wearing her cape.]

Are there other superheroes here? We should be friends! My world didn't have cool superheroes like here, but we did have some heroes! They didn't wear cool costumes or have neat powers, though. Just alchemy... It's kinda like heroes, I think.

... If you were a superhero, what would your super hero name be?? What kindsa' powers would you have??

Ooooh, cool! How old did you turn?

[ Ikki admires the helmet, although she...doesn't know what/who Iron Man is, so she's just impressed by how cool it looks. ]

Yep! If you're a bender, you're born that way!

You're the first person I met who has my age!

[ The closest was Vivi, and she's...not normally six. ]

This is so so so so so great!!!!

Wellllllll, my mommy and daddy say I talk a lot! And sometimes other adults call me precocious [ she uses the exact same tone Tarrlock once used, but grins ] and my grandpa and Katara say I'm cheerful! My favourite game is air scooter tag, but that's something I've only played with my siblings 'cause of airbending, and since I've been here I've really liked hide and seek, which I played with Vivi once! But I also just like playing pretend, y'know?

And my favourite food is momo dumplings! But I like anyyyything with fruit or vegetables in it! And my favourite colour is a tie between yellow and pink!

How about you, for all those things? Also also also does your world have magic??

[ FOREVER THIS ]

Oh, you have a big brother? I only have two little ones!!

They're really, really good! They're made with dough filled with vegetables!! I can make them for you - ...well, okay, I'd need help with the stove an' stuff from grandpa or Katara - but anyway we can have a picnic with them sometime! Or a sleepover!

Yep, absolutely!!! That's the same for me here, 'cause like Ventus and Ginji and other people are definitely my brothers!!

You do??? Are you staying with your brothers and sisters or your mama and papa?? I'm staying with Katara and my grandpa and my aunt and uncles!!! I can ask Katara to ask your family so they can set up a sleepover!!!

My daddy and sister were here until a little while ago, too. [ She...usually tries to think about happier things. ]

Ummm. Well, if you come here, grandpa might take us flying on Appa!! He's our sky bison, and he's biiiiiiiig. And then next time we can go to your house!
