4th Teddy Bear [Action][Forward-dated to daytime]

[asobouyo]

[A relatively normal day, so far. Elicia'd been coloring up pictures of pirates (fire-breathing lions were soooo last week) and was generally relaxing in her new setting. Lots of new friends and happy times! But as she finished up Mr. Pirate's peg-leg, she happened to notice, by chance, something out the apartment's windows...

A small bird limping across the grass outside!

Well, leaving it certainly wouldn't do... It'll only take a second to go see and it's close by, so it'sokay!—besides, it looks like it could rain in a little bit... She has to make sure the little critter wasn't stuck out during a drizzle...

So Elicia leaves the apartment and rushes down the stairs, slip-on shoes click-clacking all the way. She can see the bird in the distance trying to flap a mangled wing, and runs toward it... which is, in hindsight, a bad idea, because it just darts into the brush. She continues for a few seconds until she's in a little clearing, where soft frenzied chirps meet her ears.

A tree! Over there~!

She climbs its jutting roots and looks into a hole to find baby birds, all chirping and fat... like their mama? Aaah, but that means mama bird was missing! Was it really the one she'd chased earlier? Well, she'll just sit and admire the babies for now while waiting for any sign of said mama birdy, whenever you feel like bumping into her.]

[Terra is heading home from the library...or at least she was, but that plan is soon derailed. The chirping earns an idle glance, and that's when she spots the little girl climbing. Immediately, she rushes over.]

Elicia?

[asobouyo]

[Elicia jumps a little and turns, though is considerably cheery and calm when she realizes it's a familiar face.]

Hi, Ms. Terra!

[esper-flight.livejournal.com]

[Terra winces when she jumps, relieved that she doesn't make the girl fall.]

What are you doing? Do you need some help?

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

What are you doing?

[asobouyo]

[She notices the other boy and smiles.]

W-well, there was a birdy outside that was hurt, and I followed it and there were babies here in this tree!

[asmilethatkills.livejournal.com]

A bird?

Did the bird go back into the tree? Is it going to be okay?

[Kyrie is passing through when she notices Elicia in the tree, so have another small girl looking up at you.]

Um, w-why are you up there in the tree?

[asobouyo]

[She smiles and looks down.]

There's baby birds in this hole right here! They're sooo cute!! You wanna see, too?

[nightsofrain.livejournal.com]

R-really? [Oh my gosh baby birds do want. But then she frowns upon realizing something.]

...B-but I don't know how to climb the tree.

[a little blond girl climbing up a tree to save (?) birds... this is almost something straight out of his childhood, as is the memory of Kotori almost falling out of said tree. he rushes over]

W-what are you doing up there?

[asobouyo]

I found baby birds, but I was waiting to see if I could find the mama—it had a hurt wing! [She motions her arm in the air to mimic this mother bird.]

Have you seen it, mister??

[broken-messiah.livejournal.com]

With a hurt wing...? [looks around] Where did you see it?

[lotusgatekeeper.livejournal.com]

Hey! Are you stuck up there?

[asobouyo]

[Elicia shakes her head at the new face.]

No, I'm just saying hi to the babies~

I'm a good tree climber!

[Though she's only done this twice in her young life. :|a]

[lotusgatekeeper.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's good! I was worried for a second there.

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[First off, that bird doesn't look very happy to see anyone. 8[ It's linefacing at us.

And expert tree climber or no, papa isn't the only one who's gonna get a heart attack from seeing this scene. Sanji slows to a stop on his way past the apartment and...]

Elicia-chan? [Young lady, what do you think you're doing?]

[asobouyo]

[Heeeey, Sanji! Elicia teeters on the edge of a flimsy-looking branch and waves at you. It totally even bends a little under her weight. Feel better? :3c]

Hi, Big Brother! Wanna see baby birdies??

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

[Yes, much better. And you can tell from the stricken expression just how much better he feels. DX]

Sh--

I mean... ah, yes, I would! So just stay right there! [calm laugh really] I'm coming over.

[Child, please do not move as Sanji double times it over there]

[Crazy waving from the tree!! Aaaah, she knows you~]

Shirayuki! Hiiiii!

Are you here to see birds, too?!

[Action]

[applehair.livejournal.com]

Ah! You might fall from there. [It's a short fall, but she's only five. ;;] What are--- see birds?

[catus_carnival]

Meow, what are you doing up there, little one?

Re: [Action]

[asobouyo]

Meow?

[Squints at for a moment, before smiling.]

There are baby birds in a nest up here! They're really cute.

Why So Precious, Elicia

[How about after she gets into the tree? 'Cause that's when Sora goes by on the ground, having been sent on a shopping expedition. Still, the kid in the tree gets his attention, though unlike others he's not gonna start scrambling for the kid to get down, since... he did the exact same kind of stuff at that age.]

Hey, what're you doing in there?

It's probably GENETIC!! :Db

[asobouyo]

[She waves.]

Hi! I'm just lookin' at some birdies~! You wanna see? They're really really cute! And fat.
