28th Teddy Bear [Action/Written Notes/Voice]

[asobouyo]

[The draft took a lot out of her. When she returned to Luceti, she walked soundlessly back toward home, as quiet as a mouse when entering; she didn't want to wake them. Not right now. But if anyone wants to run into her during her walk back, they'll find a girl with bruises and scrapes walking along the path back home

((ooc: Can we assume that they have some kind of conversation about future!Lina on the ship? A conversation that will eventually be played out, but I only just managed to get Giles mallynapped today.))

Elicia! Oy, Elicia!

[Grown up Elicia will hear a hopefully familiar voice calling her way, shortly followed by a very battered Lina stumbling up to her side. She stares up at the girl with wide, tired eyes.]

...y-you okay?

that's fine with me!

[yaburuyo]

[She looks over her shoulder, toward the redhead. Blearily. Drafts tended to always take the energy out of her, but in this case, it felt different... Warm and lulling, even.

She smiles.]

I'm fine; tired as hell, but at least it's all done with.

How about you? Y'look exhausted.

[lina_revolution]

Hey, I'm Lina Inverse. I don't get exhausted.

...what I do get is pissed off. That totally sucked. Did you see that they took my powers away? They actually took my powers away!

[She grabs hold of Elicia's arm and clings slightly. To think that the little six year old girl who first told her what a birthday party was could turn into this...someone so much taller than her.]

[yaburuyo]

[She smiles down at Lina, despite herself, patting the other woman's hand sympathetically. It was nice, that things hadn't changed much, even if time did.]

Ran into some shifters?

[not here woop]

[poppetry]

[ Oh, that note. Of course Elicia, so brave and strong and incredible as a grown-up, would leave her a note like that.

She can't help that she starts to cry. Uncontrollably, but quietly. They're not bad tears, precisely ... she just realizes that in some bizarre way she's going to miss this girl that Elicia has been, and she's incredibly touched by those words.

She doesn't know how to reply to this. To any of it. She doesn't bother trying to reply to the note because of her tears, and by the time she gathers herself into any semblance of alright, she hears the voice of that little girl over the journals again.

Oh, god. That's it. With a quiet breath, Xion just closes her journal. She'll catch up with her little sister later... when she's not so unstable. After all... she doesn't want to scare her.

... grow her hair out, huh ... ]

[These days might be sucking for Luke, but... Hearing Elicia's small voice puts a halt to whatever he's doing. So, she's... Her older self has gone back. Luke feels a whole torrent of emotions at that - happiness, for the fact that Elicia can be small again and grow. Sadness, because her older self was really kind of cool. And some thoughtfulness; he'd given her a capacity core, huh...

About an hour later, he's at Luceti Land for the sole purpose of trying to find the little girl. Even though the rides were awesome and winning the games was fun, he's had about enough of it after a few whole days in a row of it. Still, this is Elicia's first time here, and he'd like to help make it special, especially since many people have decided not to come here after the draft was announced.]

[Little Elicia is walking toward him, but he might not realize at first- she's carrying a giant rabbit the size of her body. It's just her feet poking out the bottom of this odd image. :|]

[Action]

[cakeblocked]

[Luke looks around, cotton candy in hand, searching for the little girl who was once a soldier. He looks, sees a giant bunny walking towards him and -

Wait, hold on.

Giant bunny walking...

...

Okay okay wait, he sees little feet down there, and he realizes that the bunny isn't... moving. The raised eyebrow lowers and his gaping mouth closes, and instead, he gives a half grin and puts a hand on one of his hips.]

Is that a big, fierce rabbit heading towards me?

Re: [Action]

[asobouyo]

[GASP!! She turns left-turns right-and then realizes that doing either of these won't let her see who it is talking very well, and she lifts the fluffy bunny over her head like a weightlifter.]

Mr. Luke!! You're here!

[:D It's like the gods sent me a manservant to carry this big doll.]

Did you try to hit the thing with the hammer? I did and I won this all by myself!

[So, Riku was just chilling at the park. Contemplating some games, maybe a last minute roller coaster ride... Anything to help him cool down post-draft.

But once he spots Elicia, all tiny and adorable, he can't help but smile. Of course she'd enjoy this place.]

Looks like someone's excited.

Re: action

[asobouyo]

[He may notice she's alone, but hey, she doesn't seem too bothered by this for a change. It's a fun dreamy place full of toys and rides! |D]

Of course I'm excited, 'cause look at this place! Isn't it so cool?!

action

[stilldontgotit]

Yeah, it's pretty cool.

[Well, as long as she's staying safe, Riku can't complain too much. But she could still use supervision.]

Re: action

[asobouyo]

Did you play any of the games yet? Or ride the rides??

[ voice ]

[momnapplepie]

[People really need to stop disappearing and reappearing on her, it's bad for her heart. The journal is her first clue as to where her daughter is.]

Elicia?

Re: [ voice ]

[asobouyo]

[EEEEE, mama!!]

Hey, mama! Did you get to see this place? It has flashing lights and all kinds of snacks to eat!

[ voice ] 1/2

[momnapplepie]

[Oh thank everything.]

[ voice ]

[momnapplepie]

Elicia, listen to me carefully. What's the biggest ride that you're close by?
