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 :'|))

[...okay, emo-ing over his captain's mallynap can be put on hold for this.]

Being a doctor is hard work, but it looks like you already know a lot!

[ buffy's been glued to her journal while sitting and waiting for derek to change over. what else could she do -- stuck out on her own?

at least there is adorableness to distract her. ] See? If all biology lessons had been that wonderfully informative in high school, I might not have skipped so many.

[ d'awww. how can McCoy be grumpy when he sees something like this? ] You're going to put the rest of us out of a job.

[It's an Elicia-in-a-tree.

Again.

Maybe that's why it's less than disorienting, even while she talks to the air]

... Elicia-chan? [Is she talking to Kipinn or Nala, he wonders]

Yeah, it is! I looked at a book in the li-bary, and all the words were too big!

[Give her a moment to notice the reindeer in the little screen; she's totally fraught with mild disappointment at all the long words like 'tibia' and 'aorta'.]

Oooh, you skipped school stuff? That's not good!

But I understand, 'cause if you don't make things fun, then people don't wanna play, right?

I promise that my reasons were absolutely good and definitely excusable.

[ well. most of them. ]

...I-I am?

[CRAP THIS IS UNEXPECTED.]

Oh, no! I don't wanna do that! I won't have fun if I don't have friends with me when I'm a doctor!

[She turns a little, smiling at the voice.]

Ooooh! Look, big bro! I'm taller than you!

[giggle giggle |D]

[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?

Oh, that's okay, then! But you should make sure you do homework so you can pass!

Mama says school is real important!

And...it is. It definitely is.

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!

[Right with you there, sister. The nights spent with Doctorine hitting him over the head until he learned how to pronounce "deoxyribonucleic" ;;]

Even if you're smart, it can take a long time to learn enough so you can help everyone. I was lucky enough to have a good teacher, too.

[...yes, he's treating this convo so srs]

[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!

Ohhh! I need to find a good teacher then! Right?

[Because that's important.]

[Squiiiint.]

... Is that your stuffed animal? It's really cute!

[3:^) A-aha.]

Because If I'm gonna be a doctor, I'm gonna need lots of school! Lots and lots!

There are a lot of people who work at the clinic! If -

I'm a reindeer, not a stuffed animal!

[Luckily Elicia is young and adorable and interested in medicine so she is spared his usual amount of RAEG.]
