42nd Teddy Bear [Voice/Action]

Hello, hello! I'm Elicia, and I'm seven. If you just got here, you're in Luceti! Welcome!

There's lots of really nice people who like to help, so it's okay if you ask for help. When I got here, I didn't ask for help but everyone helped me anyways... You guys missed Christmas here, but it's okay, because I'll get you a present if you really want one; it'll be like a special package in the mail! It's the least I can do, being a cerdurfied superhero.

[She adds quickly, as an afterthought:]

A-also, if you wake up in the snow, be really careful, too. Snow's cold! It'll make you sick if you're in it for a long time.

[Now... Where was she...

Hm.

Hmmm. Maybe it'd be a good time to test out her lie-proof magic stone...? She's admittedly... been afraid to touch it. Partially because of how her friends feel about Mr. Loki and what had happened, but also because... is it bad, to see if people are lying? Does it make her a bad girl? It's things to really think about.

So she blurts out something in the middle of her thoughts, clutching the magical stone in her hand, out of sight of the little screen.]

Truth or Dare!

[... Good enough.

From this point on, she'll keep the stone in her pocket.

... just in case. After all, a little girl has some doubts. She just wants to make sure of some things every once and a while sometimes, right? That's why when she's done on the journal, she'll look for Winry for a one-on-one talk, if she's available for it. Maybe looking a little nervous before she calls to her, anyway. Stuff has been kinda... difficult recently...

Maybe now wouldn't be a good time to ask about things.

She'll also spend a lot of the day out in the front since it's kinda... hotter today than it usually is. What's up with this weird Luceti weather, guys? All the snowy stuff is melting... Man, even her little snowmen. And her cool igloo. :C

She'll go ahead and pout on the steps, holding one of the snowman's twiggy arms in one hand.

Cruel World.]

((OOC: Elicia'll be using a magic stone given to her by Loki, so if your character tells a lie while she holds it, they'll have a red halo around their head in their journal image. If they're telling the truth, it'll be green. Note that it's based on what your character thinks, so even if they're wrong, if they believe their own words it'll be truth!))

Yep, yep, that's right! If it's dare you gotta' do what the person says to win!

Aye!

Now is it my turn...or yours? Because if I say dare I cannot see you performing the dare, you see? I am most sure you see.

I--I can do it! Dare! I'll be dared.

[WHAT IS THE DARE I MUST KNOW]

Put your journal on visual communication, yes?

[Loki does the same. He wants to see that dare of course.]

[o-oh

well.

She clicks on her own, but now she's wondering if truth and dare is safe

WHAT EVIL ARE YOU DARING.]

[Loki waves briefly when Elicia appears on screen. And actually, he's not planning anything evil but a dare would not be a dare if he could not see that dare.]

Now let me see...

[He taps his chin.]

...I dare you to...

[Now what would be simple and harmless... He leans a bit closer to the screen to see what he could ask.]

Ah...show me the object that is closest to you and tell me something about it.

...

[Totally not counting anything on her person, right? Heh. Right.

Well, she'll reach over to the side and—hey! It's a mechanical toy mouse!

She smiles a little.]

This is my favoritest toy in my whole room... My papa gave it to me for my birthday.

I must say, that is quite a very awesome and utmost cool toy...

[He leans closer to the screen.]

...but not the object closest to you. Therefore you have lost the dare.

... Huh?!

[Yes, let her play dumb. Playing dumb would be good.]

Wh... whatcha' mean? My mouse is the close thing to me!

You have been holding something in your hand before you picked up the mouse. So therefore your mouse is not the closest thing to you and therefore you have lost.

[He taps his chin.]

And because you have lost I wish to see what is in your hand.

... [She sighs at that.] Look... see--I made a promise to someone about this in my pocket; I can't show anyone, because it's a special friendship thing, just between us.

So I can't show you. It's just us two...

[Had Loki had the magic stone, she'd be red with lies, but hey. Playin' dirty ain't no big thang!]

I do understand the value of friendship more than anyone, yet I also possess an almost unquenchable curiosity.

A friendship between you and...who?

[He is not quite sure if the girl is lying. It is a fifty-fifty percentage thing.]

[crap she can't say

she's not supposed to really talk to grown-up loki]

It's someone who lives in the forest! But she wouldn't like me saying who.

She doesn't trust lots of people.

[This can go so many ways. And of course Loki wishes to believe in the honesty of small children, but this is a game. And games should be played fair. Even a god of lies knows that.]

I might have a solution for our problem.

[He smiles kindly and moves to change something about the video communication.]

It is filtered now. That means no one can pick up this conversation except me and you. Thus we are able to be more open about things, yes?

I... don't know if I should say...

[Is it bad to not tell someone who is technically the person you're hiding things about? She's not sure...]

Lots of people don't like him, but he's been nice to me. He's a bad guy, but he's not a bad guy... I think... I dunno...

You mean my older self, right?

[Could there be a connection between that object and truth and dare? Loki wonders...]

Bad guy, not being a bad guy, a vast amount of doubt about his intentions. Definitely sounds like my older self.

What did he gave you?

....

[crap. crap.]

I—can't tell you... It's a secret.

Dontcha' know some things, you're not s'posed to say??

There is nothing wrong with being fond of my older self.

Denying that you are his friend will only hurt him greatly, you see?

[Loki leans a bit closer to the screen and lowers his voice to a whisper.]

I will tell you a great secret. Something no one may never know.

[He presses his finger against his lips to emphasize how secretive this really is.]

What he has given you is a token of your friendship with him. That should not be a secret.

[He flashes her the necklace Saori has given him.]

See, this is a token of my friendship with Saori. What did he gave you?

...

[With great hesitancy, she pulls the stone from her pocket. It's just filtered to Loki. It'll be okay.]

It's—this. It's a pretty stone.

[It's hard to say, even if she doesn't dive into specifics.]

If the others knew I was friends with Mr. Loki and he gave me this, they might get mad. That's why... I don't want them to know...

[Loki leans closer to the screen when she shows him the stone. It seems a harmless stone. A keepsake of some sort. Still, the word 'harmless' and his older self do not go hand in hand.]

It is a pretty stone indeed. What does it do? Or is it a mere gem?

[He shakes his head and presses a finger to his lips.]

My lips are sealed. Yet, why would they forbid you to befriend him? My older self is a most friendly individual, he would not hurt a fly.

[No, he destroys Midgardian cities instead...]

... It's something that tells me if Mr. Loki is lying or not.

He didn't want me to think he was lying to me.

[She pauses, looks down at her feet.]

Mr. Loki... hurt a lot of people once. He tried to hurt even more before they stopped him.

[What nonsense. Not from the girl, she's a mere child. But what is his older self trying to prove here? This is not how to forge friendships.]

You are the one who decides to trust him. Not some stone.

[He shakes his head.]

Mmhm... Yeah...

But I dunno if I trust him or not; I wanna be his friend, but I don't feel like I trust him yet. Not like I do with Mr. Tony or my big sis or uncle Law!

[Loki has a lot of opinions about this. He could warn this young girl, but he is sure Tony (if that is Tony Stark) would do so already.]

You cannot be one's friend if you cannot trust him. I think the word acquaintance would be more fitting for your relationship with my older self.

... You think so? Then... we're not friends?

[She can't help but feel a little disappointed.

She doesn't like the idea of losing friendship, after all.]
