22nd Teddy Bear [Video/Action]

Hi! I'm Doctor Eli—u-uhm, Doctor Hughes!! But everyone calls my papa Hughes, s-so don't mix us up! Maybe it should be Doctor Elicia! Do you think that's okay? 'Cause I know everyone calls lots of teachers and doctors by their lastest name, but I don't really like that as much as using normal names!

[Hmmm... O-OH, right—]

I've been learning about how to be a good doctor! So I'm gonna teach about stuff, so I can learn and get better at being a doctor; I think that's what I'm gonna be when I'm a growed-up!

[She'll proceed to whip out her pad of colorful construction paper to show this:

... Yep. She points to him—specifically, his face.]

This is where you have a brain! It thinks for you, and that's where aaaall the numbers and letters you know go. But you gotta be careful, 'cause if you bump your head you could get dizzy and lose some numbers, and that's not good, okay? And here's where your heart is! It keeps your blood warm! And it's how you love people!

And this is where your funny bone is! You gotta be careful not to hit it, 'cause even if it makes you laugh lots, you'll probably get a bruise. If you get a bruise you should find me, and I'll heal it all better, promise. [Hmmm, what else, what else] If you hurt your bone real real bad, make sure you get it put straight, or else it'll hurt and hurt and you won't be able to use pencils and paper no more.

Your tummy's where you keep your food, and if you get sick, you should feed your tummy medicine.

[... A beat. And she's studying that poster of hers INTENSELY.]

... O-oh!!

[She leans out of view, and scribbles something. When she pops back up with the picture, you'll find that the four-fingered drawing now has five fingers on each hand. She giggles at that.]

You don't only have that many fingers always. But some people might, so you never ever know!

Does anyone have questions? I can answer them!

O-oh! And big sis, I gotta have a babing-suit real soon! Isn't it gonna get sunny? We all gotta go to the beach!

[And her voice fades out at the end, while she's closing the journal, to go see Winry and papa concerning her shopping for beach-going things. Because we need beach stuff, papa. 3:^(

Following her doctor's video, Elicia'll be in the Rockbell front yard as usual, playing around with her toys. Of course, when her ball gets stuck in that tree over there, she knows what must be done. BRB scaling this tree over here... ooonly to get stuck in it. She sits with her ball in one hand and a tree branch in the other, frowning down at the ground. How to get herself out of this one...

Geez, the last tree climbing wasn't so bad, huff. :|

If you DO walk by, you might notice a little girl turned away from you, stuck in a tree, talking to... the air? Huh?]

So then I just closed my eyes and sang songs, and I wasn't even scared of the dark no more, 'cause I wasn't even looking at it and it wasn't all quiet 'cause I was singing...!

((ooc: replying a little bit tonight, and then tomorrow after a harrowing driver's test :'|))

[The crew might not be so understanding if Sanji dies of cute. Must. Resist]

So I see~! Elicia-chwan's been eating all her veggies~!

[She kicks her feet a little, holding her colorful bouncy ball in hand.]

But now I'm stuck, so maybe I ate too many vegetables!!

Hmm. That is a problem. [Approaching the tree, glancing up at the branches]

Does this mean you'll be tall forever?

I dunno! But it's real hard to give people hugs, from way way up here! Or play tag, or eat cereal, or practice my letters!!

[Looking mildly distraught; such srs bzns they are discussing] Luceti shouldn't be without Elicia-hugs.

Can you not climb back down?

[She shakes her head.]

I've been sitting up here for a little while now! I think maybe a whole two hours!

[Well, 30 minutes, like she can tell. Too busy chatting it up with Nala.]

I tried to get down, but it's real high, so I talked to Ms. Nala 'til papa or big bro found me!

[So big bro's your taxi service. 8| Sanji sees how it is]

So nice of Nala-chan to keep you company until I got here! [Without further ado, he jumps and lands on her branch. It gives a slight shudder, but otherwise supports both their weight.]

[What, is Sanji complaining about being her taxi service? |D]

Yeah! [She swings her feet, smiling.]

I jumped out of this tree before, 'cause I could do that when I had funny eyes and funny hair, but I'm a normal little girl so I waited! And then I started telling Miss Nala about scary dreams and how the dark is kinda scary!

[Goodness, no. He just sees how it is, being a willing slave. 8|]

Aaah, I see. Elicia-chan's so patient, waiting here like this~! [She'd at least sprain something falling from this height]

But why talk about scary dreams?

[O-oh. She looks at her feet.]

No reason! Sometimes people get scary dreams, so... they should know how to not be as scared!

[...]

I think you're right. [He seats himself beside her, stretching his much longer legs out and watching them dangle] Maybe Elicia-chan can teach me how not to be scared, eh?

[She glances up at him, unsure, before she starts with her hands up in a circle.]

You get aaaall your stuffed animals and you put them all on your bed! And then you get between them and hug them 'til you're real comfy... You can use blankets, too... And then you think about what you wanna do the next day, and how you're gonna do it! And then maybe you sing a song that you really like, or you think about someone you really like, and fun stuff you did with them, and how they'd definitely definitely make you feel better tomorrow...!

That's what I think people should do...

Ooooooh. That's amazing advice! [You'd think it was the best advice in the world, coming from him]

But I don't really have a lot of stuffed animals. [ponder ponder] I guess I can sing.

Mmmhm! You can sing pirate songs!! If you're scared of the dark, pirate songs'll always help, 'cause pirates are brave of lots of things and they get even braver if they sing pirate songs!

Is that so?

Does Elicia-chan know any pirate songs? [G-rated, please. 8|]

Yeah!! Kinda! It goes—

♪Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me! ♪

[Fff, so some pirate songs are universal. Sanji nearly bursts out laughing]

Aaah, I've heard that one before. It's a good one!

Mm! I don't know a whole lot of pirate songs, though, so big bro's crew can teach me good ones later!

[Oh Elicia, you assume they are proper pirates who know a lot of pirate songs in the first place... though...]

Oh, I know one Elicia-chan might like. Brook might play it for you, too, if you ask nicely.

I will! I'll ask real nicely!! Does he know a lot of songs?

More songs than anyone can count!

Ooooh, with all kinds of songs like that, I'll aaaalways fall asleep, 'cause I'll have a lot of ideas of what to sing!!

We can learn songs from Mr. Brook together, okay?!

Will we? In that case, Elicia-chan can help me if I forget anything~!

But first-- [looking down at the ground below] We have to get out of this tree.

... Ooooh... that's right...

What should I do, big bro?

You could try climbing down. I bet you could do it.

Or! You can come down with me.

[action] I finally realize why I keep losing track of your comments Dx

Re: [action] |D because you have 500 of them?

[action] Well, besides that. >_> They keep collapsing with other emails on gmail! So I lose them.
