TWO ⌘ Yotsuba and Christmas [Video|Action]

Video

[This would be Yotsuba's first real Christmas. Back home they never had the chance to celebrate in their new home before she was taken here. It was all so exciting, seeing all the bright lights and the snow.

The journal opens to show a small figure practically glued to the window of her apartment, staring out into the snow and lights. It really is beautiful you know, especially when it's your first time seeing anything like this.

Yotsuba turns to her journal and gives it a big wave and a huge smile before running over, picking the journal up and returning to the window. Anyone watching will now have a nice view from room 26 of building 5 of the surrounding area from the window. She's really excited you guys.]


It's so pretty! Look, look, do you see all the lights?! Christmas! This is definitely Christmas isn't it?!

[It's a shame Daddy isn't here to spend it with her... It had taken awhile, but she's used to Daddy not being here with her now. After all, he's going to appear someday and take her away and be all sorts of proud of her for being a big, brave girl whilst she was here.]

Gonna have lots of fun! Daddy, will you be having fun too? Don't eat too much, you'll get fat. Work hard! Don't break anything!!

[After reminding her father or what to do and not to do, she'll go back to staring out the window and will remain this way for a long time.]

Action

[Otonashi had asked Yotsuba if she wanted to go out for a little while as he did a few Christmas-related errands, and of course she jumped at the opportunity!

Whilst Otonashi was busy, Yotsuba went off to explore. All this snow is fun, all these lights are fun, all this everything is fun!! Do you understand how much fun this is?! It's very fun!

During her explorations, Yotsuba finds herself outside the item shop, looking up at the door frame. Seems as though there's some mistletoe hanging there.

...

What is it? Why is it there? Can she eat it?]

[Can she... Really not find her?! Oh wow, this really is the best hiding place! In her mind, Yotsuba is now the best at staying hidden. If there were some sort of hide and seek competition Yotsuba would win, hands down.

She stops running and turns to peek out from behind another shelf, still giggling.]


Shhhh. Gotta be quiet! Never gonna find me~♫
herotypical: [ snarky ; happy ] (✝ sew a flag on the back)

oh my god she gives me a toothache.

[personal profile] herotypical 2011-12-12 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I will if you keep on singing. Championship hide-and-seeking requires complete silence...

[ buffy's voice rings out over the store. there's something slightly...authoritative about it. an instructor's voice, if not a teacher's. ]
lunas: (you were looking for yourself out there)

[personal profile] lunas 2011-12-12 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, those! [ ... her expression turns a bit dejected. ] I don't have any with me right now, though, but I feel like some now..

Maybe we could look if there are any around in the shops.

Murphy's a layabout rogue who never did an honest day's work in his LIFE, actually. Not sure he deserves it!

[Listen to yourself, Grumpy Pirate! "Honest day's work"? "Layabout rogue"? WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THIS FAMILY.


Grudgingly, handing Yotsuba his flask of rum:]



Very well. Here. You can give him a sip from this flask.

stick around, she'll turn it into a full blown cavity

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-12 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[--Oops. Quickly slapping her hands over her mouth.]

Mmph! [That was a muffled cry of 'Right!'. Complete silence. No more talking! Or singing!

This calls for super secret hide and seeking! Getting down on the floor on her hands and knees, Yotsuba makes her super secret escape by crawling away from the direction she heard Buffy's voice.

'Now she'll never find me!']

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-12 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Hear that Murphy? You're a 'layabout rogue!' Layabout!

[Speaking directly into the little pony's face. Oh you silly layabout pony you. Jack says you're a layabout, therefore it must be true.

Yotsuba will take the flask in both hands. Holding it steady she manages to work it open--]


Bwaaah!! Bad smell! Strong!

[ video ]

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-12 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't have any either, but Yotsuba wants some now too. My tummy wants them really badly...

[Looking around in the shops sounds like a good idea though.] Ohhh! Otonashy is taking me out later, we could look then! Yotsuba will meet up with you and say 'hello, it was nice to see you again'!
lunas: (one without a permanent scar)

[ video ]

[personal profile] lunas 2011-12-12 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
My tummy too! [ Don't lower yourself to the level of a five year old, Usagi. ] Geez, soon it'll start sounding like a lion..

Otanashy..? Is that a friend of yours?

[ video ]

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-12 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't let that happen. It's bad when it sounds angry!!

[Big nod!] Yup, Otonashy is the person who Yotsuba is staying with. He lets me sleep here and stuff!
lunas: (but tell me; did you fall)

[ video ]

[personal profile] lunas 2011-12-12 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe my stomach will come to life and start rebelling against me! What should I do then..? [ a whining sound. ]

Ah, this Otonashy sure must be a nice guy to let you stay with him! Is he, is he?
herotypical: [ neutral ; sad ] (✝ i am displaced)

dentist, dentist!

[personal profile] herotypical 2011-12-12 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ there is a steady tap of low-heeled boots on the store floor. a measured step; confident. ]

Huh. Perhaps I should call in one of the magic-users. Cast a spell. Reveal her hiding spot lickety-split.
all7seas: (canny lad)

[action]

[personal profile] all7seas 2011-12-13 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Just give him the rum, lass! Don't breathe all over it!
hasnobeats: (Huh?)

[Action] all of it. kyaaaa

[personal profile] hasnobeats 2011-12-13 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Otonashi flinches a bit at that, kind of startled. Huh. He didn't think she was actually going to do it. Oh, Yotsuba. But that's adorable so he'll stand up straight again, laughing and giving her a smile.]

Yeah, I'm sure the mistletoe is happy now! [Giving her a thumbs up!

...Gaaah all this time with Yotsuba is making him think of his sister. Christmas y u do dis.]

[Action] <3

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Good, it would be the opposite if it was sad you know. So it's good that we made it happy today!

[Going to give the mistletoe a little wave. Didja like that mistletoe? Good! Yotsuba is very happy to have learnt something new and to have made the mistletoe happy.]

its going to be one hell of a bill

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
But that wouldn't be fair! Using magic is cheating!! [And that isn't keeping quiet.] Oh, Yotsuba was saying that out loud! [At least she realised...

Crawling as fast as she can to get away now, trying not to make anymore noise as she does so.]
herotypical: (} enroll at the local college)

WORTH IT.

[personal profile] herotypical 2011-12-14 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe I'm a cheater.

[ i'm not a cheater, jack sparrow. ]

And the store's only so big.

[action]

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
[It smells so bad, who would want to drink this?! It's worse than coffee, yeesh.

Just holding the flask as far away from her as possible so Murphy can drink from it... She doesn't have to pour some out or do anything but hold it right? That might mean getting closer to the awful stuff.]


Yotsuba is trying not to breathe, but I can't for very long. Will Murphy really like this? It's all smelly...

:|b

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh no, it is only so big! At this rate she's going to run out of hiding places... Unless she goes back to the front of the store and starts again but that would be silly!

So! In an attempt to stop making noise and find a good hiding spot, Yotsuba opts to stay perfectly still and lay face down on the floor. This is a good hiding spot, really. If she can't see Buffy then she isn't there!]

[ video ]

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Why are you asking her that?!] Will that really happen? You need to feed it, quickly! Don't let it end this way!!

Yes, he's very nice, and probably has some food to keep your stomach happy! Will you be okay Usagi?!
herotypical: (} no one's got it all)

[personal profile] herotypical 2011-12-14 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ and so the slayer comes to stand a few feet away. truly silent.

up until: ]
I spy with my little eye...

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[FFFFFFFF-- Oh, oh, she knows this game. She can't help it, there's a massive grin on her face and she's starting to giggle. What do you spy Buffy?! This is so exciting~]
herotypical: (✝ now tourists come and stare at us)

[personal profile] herotypical 2011-12-14 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
...Something green.

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey. Her hair is green. Huh.

Rolling over onto to her back and staring straight in Buffy's direction. Her mouth twitches into a smile every now and then, she can't help it.]


...Is it me?
herotypical: [ happy ; neutral ] (✝ where the lights are)

[personal profile] herotypical 2011-12-14 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
...Clever girl.

[identity profile] rollypolyclover.livejournal.com 2011-12-14 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
You found me, no way! Ahahaha!! Yotsuba was really good at hiding, right, right? Right!

[And then she just breaks down into a fit of giggling and rolling about on the floor.]

That was fun!! Yotsuba had you for a moment there, I could tell. You didn't know where I was, so Yotsuba was keeping extra quiet you know!
