15th Teddy Bear [Action/Video]

[asobouyo]

[Elicia sits near the school like she usual does when it gets out, but she's got a new book in her hands—a fairytale book, given to her by Derek (unknowingly, the sneaky vampire hunter). She's already had quite a spike in energy when it comes to writing storybooks, as you can very well see if you were involved in her hideous log.

Forgive her, she's trying to read.]

"Puh...oor little ugly d—duckling..." she wooould sss—say. "Why... are you so di—

di-fir-eant from the others?"

And the... ugly duckling felt worse than ever.

[She lowers the book, frowning. Probably thinking 'this book is just mean and cruel and WHYYY'

When she returns home, she spends some of her time riding up and down one little stretch of hallway on the brand new bicycle the Malnosso for some reason was kind enough to gift her. Training wheels are on it, but just wait until she decides she's gotta man up and take those suckers off. Which will probably be in another week.

But of course, she can't control herself from making a video entry—it's been a long time since she got to sit and make a normal one, of course!]

Hi, guys! Did you have nice Christmases? I did, definitely. I got a cool book, and a bike, and a polar bear teddy! I read about those, y'know! They live in snow, just like how it is here, and they can sit on floaty ice in the water. It's really cool...!

[She holds up said polar bear teddy as validation for her chat.

A beat, while she collects her somewhat limited thoughts. Hey, her mind works 100 miles a minute, you know.]

I wonder what else lives with the polar bears... they're not all alone, are they? That'd make them real lonely!

And that's not good at all...!

[Looks like stuff is relatively back to normal, for her. |D]

[ooc: replies in a few hours! Just getting this up while I'm lazily free with time at the moment! 8Db]

Yeah, before I thought maybe it was just how they picked it to be in the rec room. I think I will ask when I go home.

[asobouyo]

You should!

...What's a rec room?

[chibiremlover]

It's the room on the ship with all the trees and grass and stuff in it.

[asobouyo]

So you live on a big boat!

[Hush, how's she supposed to assume you live in space.]

[chibiremlover]

No, I live on a space ship. [It's fine! Common mistake! 8D]

[asobouyo]

Really?! You mean, like a amstronaut?!

[chibiremlover]

I think you mean astronaut. And I guess... we kinda are like astronauts.

[asobouyo]

Wow, that's so cool!!

What's space like?!

[chibiremlover]

Well... actually, it's very cold and lonely. It's so big and feels so empty.

[asobouyo]

O-oh... I hope it's not scary or bad... You're not lonely there, are you?

[chibiremlover]

It's not scary or bad, and Rem and Knives - and the rest of the crew are there. So I'm not too lonely. That and one day all the sleeping people will wake up when we find our new home. So I won't have to be lonely for very long.

[asobouyo]

There are sleeping people? Whatcha' mean?

[chibiremlover]

Well, they sleep. Rem says it's so they're rested and ready to wake up on the new worlds she's going to find them.

[asobouyo]

O-oh! Like they're just taking naps so they're not sleepy when they get up!

But what kinda' planet are you gonna find? One with aliens?

[YOU KNOW, ALIENS! 8D]

[chibiremlover]

Maybe... I guess? But wouldn't we be the aliens?

I just know, when we find it, it's going to be a place where everyone can live their life in peace!

[asobouyo]

[I'M REAL HAPPY FOR YA' VASH AND I'MMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT ALIENS ARE A MORE IMPORTANT TOPIC.]

But I thought aliens were the funny looking green guys with big heads!

[STORIES DO NOT LIE.]

[chibiremlover]

Oh, I thought it was when people go from one place to another. [He's not even going to into the description Steve gave him of some aliens. It's too scary!]

[asobouyo]

Really?

But then... that means everyone here is aliens!

[8O]

[8O]

[8O]

[chibiremlover]

I guess so.

[asobouyo]

But... I thought aliens are supposed to look different? Don't they have big heads and funny colored skin and only three fingers on their hands??

[Wiggling her hands, like so!!]

[chibiremlover]

Well... maybe there are people out there like that on other planets. I don't know. I've only ever seen humans and other Plants before. I haven't seen anything like that before.

[asobouyo]

Oooh, what kind of plants do you know? Pretty flowers, right? I know lots about them now, 'cause I have a neat flower book!

[chibiremlover]

[Not the plants he meant, but he likes flowers.] Rem has shown me a few flowers on the computer. Especially geraniums.

[asobouyo]

Ger-an-iums? What's those look like?

[She runs her hands through her small backpack, before taking out the flower book.]

Can you read good? Maybe you can show me!

[chibiremlover]

Yeah, I can read. Rem taught me how. [He takes the book and starts flipping pages until he finds it and points to it.] There! That one!
