5th Teddy Bear [Action]

[asobouyo]

[Are you walking though a certain hallway in CH4, Floor 6? Or are you passing casually by the front of the school? If you are, then you'd better watch out—from behind, a figure leaps from the corner, fake aluminum and cardboard sword in hand! Who could it be but the most devilish of all villains...!]

Yaaaargh, gimme all your valurables!






♪ And then I'll save your princesses!! ♪

 

[Yes, it's Elicia donning pirate wear! Or, at least, an eyepatch and a saber. Close enough, right? She's been hearing an awful lot about pirates, and with this whole 'Halloween' thing coming up, she has a lot to think about! :U]

Okay! Let's see... [He flips through the book for a bit - when A-HA! magnolias.] ...these here?

[asobouyo]

Elicia makes a happy girly noise and nods, holding the book and looking at the picture.]

Yeah, yeah!! These ones~!

[And she holds the book close, swiveling her shoulders side to side in a gesture of affection.]

Mama had some of these on the windowsill—I liked them a lot!

[goldenglasses]

Oh, so they remind you of your mom do they? [He can definitely appreciate that!]

[asobouyo]

Yeah! Flowers do. And baking, and coloring, and...

[asobouyo]

...and lots of things...

[goldenglasses]

You miss her don't you? You know, it's okay to be sad and miss her now and then.

[asobouyo]

...Mnhm...

I hope she's not lonely. She's really tough, but she can get lonely sometimes. When papa left, she was sad..

What if I made her sad, too?

[goldenglasses]

Well, I was told that when we come here that the world back home stays still until we go back. So your mommy probably doesn't even know you're gone. So you don't have to worry about making her sad.

[asobouyo]

Really?? Then she won't be sad? She won't know?

[She perks up a little at this news.]

[goldenglasses]

Nope! See, while we might go a whole day here not even a second passes back home. Time just moves differently between here and home.

[asobouyo]

[Phew!]

Then that's good! I can take papa home when they let us ago and mama will be aaaall okay~! And then I can even tell her about how I had cool wings!

[She flaps them a little, unconsciously.]

[goldenglasses]

[Vash isn't the type to crush someone's dream. More so if it's a good dream. Besides, he's already decided he's going to try to take Wolfwood back with him if he can.]

Yeah, and if you'd like until your dad can take you to the flower shop, would you like to borrow my book?

[asobouyo]

You'd let me borrow it? Really really?

[goldenglasses]

[He nods and hands it over.] As long as you give it back when you're done with it.

[She hugs the book carefully.]

I promise to! I'll take really good care of it, and I'll never let anything happen to it.

[She's suddenly quiet for a moment, and then runs off into the apartment.]

One sec!!

[asobouyo]

[She returns in a few seconds holding a small gray something. It's a mouse! A toy wind-up mouse.]

You take this! Until I give the book back. That way we'll be equal!

[She smiles happily.]

It means a lot to me, so you have to take care of it in return, like I will with your cool book. Okay?

[goldenglasses]

[Vash takes the toy with a smile.] Don't worry! I'll be sure to take very good care of it! [And make sure Nichole the cat doesn't see it.]

[asobouyo]

[Why, Mr. Vash, Elicia thinks that is an excellent name for a kitty~!]

[goldenglasses]

So I'm on floor three, apartment twelve when you want to return it.

1/3

[asobouyo]

Oh! Okay! 3 and 12! I won't forget, mister—

[asobouyo]

[asobouyo]

...What's your name?

[goldenglasses]

[Vash hesitates a moment. He's already told her father his real name, but he doubts she can filter well enough to keep Legato away if she ever wanted him over the journals.]

It's a... it's a secret name! With such a large bounty on my head it would be dangerous to give out my real name wouldn't it!

So just called me Bob! Alright?

[asobouyo]

All right, Bob~! I'm Elicia!!

...

Should I have a secret name, too?

[goldenglasses]

Sure! What would you like?
