32nd Teddy Bear [Video]

[Elicia has had a really great New Feather round. For one thing, dad was back. For another, so was Sanji. These reasons alone made her the happiest person in all of Luceti (save for maybe... I dunno, Grune. She's always pretty happy and stuff. Oh, and that dog Dug she hasn't met yet). But otherwise, happiest! And when she pops in on video to address the populace, she's got a big ol' smile. Even if she sounds a little stuffy.]

Hi, new feathers! My name's Elicia! It's getting real cold, so make sure you all got real warm coats, okay?? 'Cause getting a cold is not a good thing; your nose gets real stuffy and you go through... a lot of tissues...

[aah—achoo!

... She might be coming down with something. It happens to the best of us.]


Ummm, I wanna make really tasty hot chocolate and cookies and give them to you... I think I'm gonna ask mama and papa if we can go to the Welcome place so I can... Or maybe I can give the nice people who work there some, so they can give to people...!

[UM UM. IS THERE MORE.]

Oh, yeah! My papa and my big bro are here again, so make sure you say hi! My papa's name is Maes, but lots of people call him Hughes, and my big bro is Sanji—he's a cool chef at the restaurant, so you should definitely try his food! And my papa is a military guy! Is there other people who work in the military? You should meet him!

[... one more thing!]

And Mr. Uncle Jack, I gotta see you again so I can give you back your cool compass, so if you want it...!

A.....a present. For me.

[No one gives Captain Jack Sparrow presents. Not like this. Buffy and McCoy had been the only others, really. The roiling in his gut gets worse.]

Not....not necessary.

[Possibly the sooner Jack got this over with, the easier it would be.]

Fine, then---I'll be by directly to your home.

[And he will show up not too long after, knocking at her door and shifting nervously from foot to foot as he waits for her to answer it.

Hoping very, very much that she will answer and not Winry.]

[YAH. IT'S. LITTLE. CHILD. STARTLING.]

Elicia! It's......me.

[And nervous behavior is a go. Jack twists his fingers together and tries for a smile that ends up probably looking far too strained. He shifts his weight from foot to foot. If asked WHY this little girl is looping him like this, he would stumble about for explanations in confusion. All he knows is that, for some reason, he doesn't want to make her promises anymore. He doesn't want to look after her or watch out for her, because he can't; it is not his place. Not his right. Not within his capabilities. He repeats:]

Erm........Hello. Very glad to hear your father is here once more.

I do? Ha! Nooo! No, small Elicia! I'm not at all worried! And I'm certain Miss Rockbell is perfectly not-furious with me at the moment! Haven't seen her in ages. You alright?

[He wonders how Elicia weathered that whole "moon thing" from a couple weeks back.]
all7seas: (tore it all apart)

[He is quick to take it.] Obliged, tiny child. I'm glad it served you. I'll just be going now, eh? Farewell!

[Presents! He LOVES presents! But in this case...the present is a bit scary.]

Present? Present! Erm.......right, let's have it, child, and then I will be on my merry way!
all7seas: (parley?)

[personal profile] all7seas 2011-11-22 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh....

[He takes the little bag almost reverently. There is a knot right at the dead center of him.]

Oh. Very nice indeed, Elicia. [A hard swallow.] My thanks!
all7seas: (I'm Captain Jack Sparrow son)

[personal profile] all7seas 2011-11-23 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Aye! Of course, small child! I will of course be eating ALL of these and not even sharing them! Honor bright!
all7seas: (a dishonest man)

N-next time? [There's going to be a next time? That is alarming.] Of course, child. You'll certainly surpass yourself each and every time you bake them. Undoubtedly.


Erm....farewell?
all7seas: (each left his mark on the other)

"Erm----aye, of course, child. You'll be the first one I tell. Promise."

Lies. All lies. And the pirate is grateful to get away.
