SIX ⌘ Yotsuba and Buried Treasure [Action]

[rollypolyclover]

[Sometime in the afternoon, Yotsuba sees this message pop up in her journal. Rumours of buried treasure?! No way, she had totally been left out of the loop, what rumours?! There are probably hundreds, no, thousands of people already out looking for the treasure by now... She'll have to be quick and find it before anyone else! That treasure will be hers!!

First off she heads to the fountain and from there her treasure hunt begins! Yotsuba has her journal with her as she walks around all over the place trying to find the next hint to where the treasure is buried. There's the odd occasion where she's concentrating so hard on her journal that she ends up bumping into walls and maybe even people, but that doesn't deter her for long! Feel free to run into her at any of these locations: the fountain, playground, bakery, item shop, clinic, cherry blossom hill, library and finally around house 16. Yes, she's going to be all over the place today.

If you don't feel like engaging this five year old in her treasure hunting shenanigans that's fine. Yotsuba might just come to you first, waving her latest hint around and trying to get your attention.]

Hey, heeey! Do you see this? I need help, there's buried treasure out there and Yotsuba is going to find it!

[If you help her out there might be some candy and plastic coins in it for you in future. Maybe, if she decides to share.]

It says... Uhm. [...] Yotsuba can do it!!

"Find some-one to give me a push and I spin chil-dren un-til they la-uff." What could it mean? [Think. Think. Think.] ... You need to push me until Yotsuba starts laughing, go!

[greenghost]

[He considers the riddle for a moment. Spin children until they laugh? Tire swing, maybe?]

[He laughs a little when she instructs him to push her.]

No, no wait a second, it says push and spin. I can't push you and make you spin, unless you're a magical ballerina or something. Which you could be, I don't know.

[A shrug.]

But hey, is there a playground around here? I bet we could find something that I could push you on and make you spin until you laughed there!!

[rollypolyclover]

Yotsuba could be a magical ballerina?!

[Well damn there's something else added to the list of things she wants to be.]

Ohhh! Yeah, yeah! There's a playground near the school and Yotsuba has been there to go on the swings! Swings are fun, Yotsuba laughs on those all the time. Except when they go too high!

[greenghost]

[Whoops. Wasn't exactly his intention, but what the hell. They told Yotsuba she could be anything, so she became a magical ballerina. Sure.]

Hmmm, I don't know if swings spin, though! I bet we could find something there that does, though.

[rollypolyclover]

Is it the slide? Yotsuba can roll around and around on the slide whilst going down it. That's really fun, we should go on the slide. [And something about treasure too.] We can look for treasure on the slide!

[Time to go fast. Yotsuba turns and bolts off in the direction of the school! Once she's a little further away she turns to wave at John.]

Hurry up, we don't have all day ahaha!

[greenghost]

[Oh man. John kind of adores the shit out of you right now, Yotsuba.]

Hey whoa, too fast!! I'm too old for this!!

[He goes chasing after her, reaching out to grab her hand when he gets close enough.]

[rollypolyclover]

[Too fast? Not fast enough is more like it. Once they're holding hands Yotsuba will turn and spin around, kind of like she's trying to dance as they run.]

You're not old, you're not a grandad!

[greenghost]

[Oh my God why are you the cutest five year old ever.]

Nope, but I am thirteen!! You're totally way more spry than me.

[rollypolyclover]

Yotsuba is way more spry dog, you dig? Don't eat the dirt!

[Somehow 'spry' sounded like street talk to her. Just as well she's had a crash course in talking street from Beat in the past.]

You're thirteen, so that means you go to school. Work hard and run fast!!

[greenghost]

[Did that little girl just...]

[John just cracks up laughing.]

Yeah, all right.
