rollypolyclover | TEN ⌘ Yotsuba and Birthdays [Video|Action]

It's November! November again! Yotsuba is here and it's November again! I've been here for ages, a year is a really long time. Yotsuba has been here for... [Please hold while the little girl counts on her fingers for a moment. Teeen, eleeeveeen-] Twelve mumps! And... Too many days! Yotsuba has been here forever!

[Considering she's been here 'forever', Yotsuba looks incredibly happy. And with good reason, for today is her birthday... Well, no, it isn't. Heavens if she knows how birthdays work when you're not back home. She's talked to Yuri about her birthday before and most of that conversation went over her head, so you know what? November is her birthday. Just any day in November, she doesn't care when.]

Today Yotsuba wants a cake, so can we have cake?! Make it strawberry today, it feels like a strawberry day. It has to taste like a dream! Ohhh, and presents, really cool presents! What do you want for your presents Mister Cicada?

[Yotsuba looks away from the journal at the cicada toy she has. Hm, what's that? I want... A giant TV... And a hot air balloon.]

That's too much Mister Cicada, no presents for you! [...] Don't make that face at me! Nooo! Oh, Yotsuba almost forgot, almost!

[To finish up her journal entry about demanding cake and presents without explaining anything, Yotsuba disappears from the journal. There's the sound of a few doors slamming in the background and she goes looking for something she picked up earlier and then decided to hide in case Naoi found it... She hid it in the bathroom behind the shower curtain.

A minute or two later and she's back with a birthday balloon. Sixty is like six with just a zero on the end, close enough.]

Okay!! I'm ready for presents and cake now!

[Cats are superior, kid.]

Good. [Now he's leaning in to whisper. Despite that this is public and everyone can hear him.] Now keep on getting those points.

[Of course she's going to eat it! She just has to figure out how to get into the tin.

Maybe smacking it against the floor?! No that didn't do it... What about smacking it against the floor again?! ... AND AGAIN- Oh, there we go.

The syrup ends up splattering over the floor, which is just perfect for Yotsuba to dip her hands in and scoop some syrup into her mouth.]

It tastes sticky. [...] It's a pass!

[... Stop trying to figure her out. It makes it harder to get mountain sized cakes that way.]

It's a real fun birthday, that's what Yotsuba is saying. Can you hear me?! Aaaah!

That's right, you got it right Pao-Lin! Good job!

[Clap clap clap, well done that girl.]

[It doesn't matter if you're been hundreds of times, tours are important! This particular tour is pretty rushed though, she wants to get back to her room and see what the surprise is.]

Over there is the other side of the house, Yotsuba's room isn't over there. There's my room, that's where we should go right now!

[SO LET'S GO RIGHT NOW! ... Oops, forgot to the close the front door. Yotsuba runs back, slams the front door and then does a forward roll across the ground.]

Yotsuba closed it really fast, like a ninja! [...] This way!

[That's all she needs to hear in order for her to start ripping into the parcel. Once she's opened it, Yotsuba takes one of the mochi rice cakes and stuffs it into her mouth while she pulls out and examines the charm.]

What'sh thish? Ohmmmm, it'sh magic. [Yes, that must be what it is.]

Ohhh, okay. Yotsuba will try really hard not to eat the stale food, it's not good to be on the ill side. Or the Nowy side. [...] Nowy can stay on the ill side.

[A cat is fine too.]

... You're not gonna tell me what the secret is? [The secret better not be to keep getting points. That's lame.] It's okay, tell me.

[Like hell he's telling you. ~~he have no idea~~]

Nope. You'll just have to find out yourself.

[Cicadas are the best insects ever, that's why. Don't make her pretend it's stuck to her face again.]

We're good friends! Only when Mister Cicada does as he's told, then he's a naughty cicada and we're not friends.

[So for now? They're friends. Greediness aside.]

Oh? Could we make a pit stop in the kitchen first?

That is magic. It's a magic good luck charm.

[Rei smiles down at the girl, pointing to the kanji on it]

Do you know what this means?

[WHOA WHOA

THAT

NO.

JUST NO.

NO ONE SLAMS THE DOOR IN GOD'S FACE.

EVER]

[So before it can close

he grabs the door

pushes it open again...]

[...And then steps into her room. HA.

He grins] I think it's quite the opposite. A spoiled little brat like you should get nothing good.

...Perhaps you should think about sharing whatever you get. That way, nothing will get wasted.

[ WOW, THAT'S SO COOL. totally jealous. ]

So you're a superhero!

Ehhhh...I want to try some, too. Can you bring me some, Yotsuba? I'll give you your present if you do.

[He doesn't want to leave today. He's feeling very lazy.]

[ Close enough. Yuri doesn't remember where it was either. ] That's your anniversary then! So you're allowed to have presents, don't worry.

Oh no!! Oh no, didn't work!!

[CRAP. What do...]

You aren't allowed in Yotsuba's room, it's a no Nowy allowed area. Go away!

Oh? Okay! We can go to the kitchen, let's go!

[She stops in her tracks and starts to walk backwards while making a beeping sound, like a truck reversing. Once she's back to the front door Yotsuba turns and zooms towards the kitchen.]

[Gulp, down goes the rest of the mochi. Back to staring at the charm.]

Hmm, it's a tough one. Yotsuba knows. [...] It means magic.

Sharing is good, lots of good people share. Sharing is caring. [Or something like that. Anyway, time to share.]

Mister Cicada can have some of this cake, then Yotsuba can have some too and we can share it. Yurippe can have some cake, and Raine... And Buffy too!

[Here you go, enjoy your slice of imaginary cake that she's been cutting up in the mean time.]

Ohhh, good. Yotsuba is releafed. [Phew!]

It's Yotsuba's anniversary, presents are okay. Cakes are okay. [... But this balloon isn't okay.] Yurippe, we need anniversing balloons now!

... But Yotsuba is really good with secrets?! [Didn't she just say this?! Come on man!]

This is whack. [...] Yo!

[It's been quiet some time since she's broke out the gangsta speak.]
