3rd Teddy Bear [Video][Eaaaarly morning of the 15th]

[asobouyo]

[Elicia is totally grown-up. I mean, she's five whole years old! And as such, she of course needed her own room with her own little bed. One little issue: she doesn't quite enjoy the heavy rain and thunderstorm outside. She has made a resolute promise to herself that she wouldn't run like a bat out of hell into her father's room, even if the noises and colors scare her silly. And like all little kids, she doesn't realize that promises like these are silly, because that's what papas are for anyway, right?

The journal opens quietly as she hides under her blankets in her sleeping gown, frowning into her hands.

And yes, it's about 1 in the morning. Some of you must be up, right?]

When you're scared, what do you do to make it all better?

[She makes a squeaky noise when another loud boom of lightning flashes.]

I-I mean, if someone is scared... and stuff...

I'm Ayumu. We can talk more later, when it isn't time we should both be sleeping. Hmm?

[all7seas]

[There is an irritated growl at this. It's 1am, Sparrow's tired. He might need to make adjustments to get this child to sleep.]

Aye; aye, I'm a hero type, savvy? Won't let a hair on your little golden head come to harm, will I?

Now sleep.

[asobouyo]

Okay! Nightnight, Ayumu~!

[ayu_nee]

Good night. Sleep well.

[asobouyo]

...Okay...

[grown-ups and their grouchiness, really~]

But!! Promise you'll be careful, too, cause I don't want your house to get on fire, either. And if you call me, I'll get water to splash on it!

Re: [voice]

[asobouyo]

Yeah... okay! I'll go stay with papa. Just until the storm's over! And then I'll be able to sleep in my bed all by myself~!

Evaluat--

...

I mean, I would look at the situation in a way that is not scary. [There's a slight pause as he thinks for a second.] For example, the thunder is loud, but it won't hurt you.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. I'm certain of it.

[He smiles and laughs a bit.]

Even if you're quiet, I'm sure the gods will hear you and be thankful that you're playing with them.

[ In which case, nothing to stab get too worked up over, then. ]

Aaaa, what's the matter?

Re: [ action ]

[asobouyo]

[The little mound under the covers, it speaks!]

N-nothing! I just came to say hi...

[Another rumble of thunder and she jumps and speeds across the mattress, like a mole under soil. Aah, this is a nice pillow you have, dad. Mind if I hide under it? *_*]

[ action ]

[idkmybffroy.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, of course~ [ Feel free! He'll be tugging on it pretty soon, though. ] For a moment I thought you were just having trouble sleeping because of the storm.

Re: [ action ]

[asobouyo]

[She has a vice-grip on that pillow, mister. B|]

[And out comes a muffled voice:]

I—I'm five-years-old, so I'm not scared of storms...!

[ action ]

[idkmybffroy.livejournal.com]

[ ...dawww. ]

Is that so? You're very brave, then. I was afraid of storms when I was five, you know~ [ Even if he wasn't, by god he'd still be saying it. ]

Re: [ action ]

[asobouyo]

...

You were?

[curse my gullibility]

But you're never scared of anything!

[ action ]

[idkmybffroy.livejournal.com]

Ah, I've had plenty of time to grow out of it is all! It's very easy to get scared by such a loud thing, hm?

[What's he doing up at 1 AM? Who knows. Probably just can't fall asleep.]

I remember that it's all gonna be okay. Even if something's scary, it's not forever, and it's not bad just 'cause you don't know what it is.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

Well, I have to make sure I pronounce everything clear. The good news is that singing makes it easier.

[all7seas]

Right, right--careful. Uncle Jack's always careful, tiny person. Get tucked up, now, warm-like. And stop chattering.

[Voice]

[not-klonoa.livejournal.com]

Yes...I very frequently observe and listen to the rain when it comes.

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Those work too. Do you want me to draw with you?

[wise_maiden]

[Not quite voice. Just yet, anyway. Raine's awake, tired, and ... just half listening in, really. Children do always have a habit of asking the most difficult questions, don't they? ... Mn.]

[voice]

[stilldontgotit.livejournal.com]

[Ah... He remembers talking to her before.

This is probably more of Sora's forté, but he might as well give it a shot.]

Could always find some company.

[asobouyo]

All right... Goodnight, Mr. Uncle Jack.

Re: [ action ]

[asobouyo]

...Y-yeah. And it's scary because lightning can hurt people if it hits them.

[asobouyo]

But if lightning hits you, it can hurt!!

That's why people need to stay inside when there's lots of lightning!
