[Continued from: here (http://lucetilogs.livejournal.com/286599.html?thread=58100103#t58100103)!]

So I'm not a bear, you're not a bear, Nowy might be a bear, but Yotsuba sounds like a bear?!

[Somehow, Naoi got in there. I don't even know how.]

Why does Yotsuba sound like that?! Not a bear, not a bear!

WOW MAYBE I DIDN'T WANT TO SWITCH POSTS!! okay no even I can't tsun over that..

[lunas]

Who is this Nowy guy and why might he be a bear?! Should I watch out for him?

[ in b4 Yotsuba makes Usagi scared of Naoi before ever meeting him. ]

And you did sound like a bear! Like a big, huge, gigantic scary bear!

SORRY FOR NOT CONSIDERING YOUR FEELINGS-- oh okay

[rollypolyclover.livejournal.com]

Yeah, watch out for him! He's really mean and really bad, a big bar bear!

[So he isn't really a bear, but he can hypnotise you and he's very scary and mean. BE AFRAID.]

How did Yotsuba manage that?! ...Is it a miracle?!

[lunas]

I'll watch out for him then, for sure! I don't want to run into mean people, that just sucks! [ nod. ] Does he really look like a bear too, or what?

I-it's not a miracle at all! Just try it again, I'll hear it for sure!

[nothisbrother]

[Continuing from here

Naoi smiles] Better than good? I think I can manage that! Especially if Yotsuba agrees to play with me.

[rollypolyclover]

Ohhh, okay! What're we gonna play, something fun?

[Playing with Naoi. Someone take a picture.]

[nothisbrother]

Of course it'll be something fun! Should we go play in the water?

[A moment to remember]

[action | march 17]

[wise_maiden]

[A cool, wet and rainy saturday. The threat of bad weather had been lingering over them in the clouds for a few days now, and the time the clouds open up are at a fairly unfortunate one. Raine is making her way back from the store when she notices the first few drops, and her arms are a little full, what with having to balance a bag as well as the staff she usually carries with her.

And from the corner of her eye she notices a certain little green-haired neighbor of hers running around. That won't do, in this weather. So she calls over, trying to get the girl's attention. Now what was her name again...]

Yotsuba!

[action | march 17]

[rollypolyclover]

[Just a moment, this puddle right here? It's begging to be jumped in.]

Raaain! [...Wait!] It's Raine in the rain, ahahaha! Hello!

[Yotsuba waves back when she hears her name but doesn't come over or anything, she's having way too much fun splashing around.]

[action | march 17]

[wise_maiden]

That's right, it's raining. And you are going to end up with a cold, young lady. Do you think you could help me out instead?

[action] March 24th, afternoon

[notquiteheartless]

[Sherlock Holmes let the small girl settle onto the divan beside him as he opened Treasure Island to where he'd had to leave off the previous day.

She seemed to be enjoying the story, and it was just as well. It gave him an excuse to not tax his body much while still recovering from the damage to his wing. Nearly all healed up now, which would bring its own complications.

Like whether or not he'd continue to stay at 2-21 with John... or if he'd be expected to find his own flat.

No reason not to, he knew. It wasn't as if money were a concern here. John would likely prefer it that way.

But. But for now. He could sit with the girl, focus on reading a book he could recite in his sleep, and not worry about much else at that very moment.]

So things passed until, the day after the funeral, and about three o'clock of a bitter, foggy, frosty afternoon, I was standing at the door for a moment, full of sad thoughts about my father, when I saw someone drawing slowly near along the road. He was plainly blind, for he tapped before him with a stick and wore a great green shade over his eyes and nose; and he was hunched, as if with age or weakness, and wore a huge old tattered sea-cloak with a hood that made him appear positively deformed. I never saw in my life a more dreadful-looking figure. He stopped a little from the inn, and raising his voice in an odd sing-song, addressed the air in front of him, "Will any kind friend inform a poor blind man, who has lost the precious sight of his eyes in the gracious defence of his native country, England--and God bless King George!--where or in what part of this country he may now be?"

"You are at the Admiral Benbow, Black Hill Cove, my good man," said I.

"I hear a voice," said he, "a young voice. Will you give me your hand, my kind young friend, and lead me in?"

I held out my hand, and the horrible, soft-spoken, eyeless creature gripped it in a moment like a vise. I was so much startled that I struggled to withdraw, but the blind man pulled me close up to him with a single action of his arm.

"Now, boy," he said, "take me in to the captain."

[action] March 24th, afternoon

[For the most part Yotsuba is happy to be read to and keeps quiet. Every now and then when a word crops up she isn't familiar with she doesn't hesitate on trying to say it herself before asking what it means.

Being the animated girl she is she's quick to get into the book and react along with the events taking place, smiling, frowning, laughing and at times humming the words of the book if a song is mentioned or people start singing about dead men's chests and rum. Sometimes her reactions are a little out of place but she's enjoying the story regardless.

Right now she's caught on 'eyeless creature' and is imagining a literal eyeless person as opposed to a blind man.]

Ooh, scary, the eyeless guy is scary...

[action] March 24th, afternoon

[notquiteheartless]

[If anything, her enthusiasm is contagious, awakening the small boy who used to run around his family home pretending to be a pirate, tugging on his older brother's sleeve until he'd read the familiar books.]

He is, isn't he?

[Eyeless... blind...

Does it really matter when reading to a little girl from a pirate book? No. No, it doesn't. This is one place where Sherlock won't stand on the technical details.]

"Sir," said I, "upon my word I dare not."

"Oh," he sneered, "that's it! Take me in straight or I'll break your arm."

And he gave it, as he spoke, a wrench that made me cry out.

Not very nice, is he?

[AU event, 7th April]

[rollypolyclover]

[Continued from here!]

Someone new a special?! Sounds exciting, whoah!

[Once the crowd land Yotsuba is quick to step forward and look over the two of them, eventually bending down to say hello.]

Hello Phobos! Hello Deimos! I am Yotsuba Koiwai and I am not a bird, so Yotsuba can't fly like you. You're kind of cool!

[AU event, 7th April]

[faithfulflame]

CAW. CAW. CAW.

[The crows skip forward and look up at you Yotsuba. Cawwing and making fairly happy sounds]

They like you! See, they are really cute crows. But...Usagi-chan is afraid of them...

[AU event, 7th April]

[rollypolyclover]

That's okay, birds are scary sometimes. They stole Yotsuba's tiara once, and owls!!

[Oh gosh owls. Not owls. They can turn their heads and stare at you.]

Owls...

[Grumble, grumble. Norma's not all that thrilled about getting beaten up by a five year old, and it shows on her face. Her stomach still kinda hurts, and she rubs it idly, looking at the tiny child with a gloomy expression. ...Moon power, huh?]

That moon magic's pretty potent. [Seriously.] But I dunno if you really need that much of it to get ice cream. I mean, stuff's free here, right? I think all you really need is a chaperon. Aaaand, since I'm not doing anything and could go for a sweet treat, I happily volunteer to be your chaperon--er, sidekick, even!

My gift to you for beating up the wicked Normonster. [And hopefully an appeasing gesture so you will never do that again. <__<]

[Action | April 2-8]

[rollypolyclover]

So Yotsuba gets a reward for punching Norma?! Wow!! [Well hello there positive reinforcement, you are a wonderful thing.]

Okay, you can be Yotsuba's sidekick! Let's go get ice cream with lots of red bean paste and... And sprinkles, all over it, sprinkles!

[Action | April 2-8]

[bubblywishes]

[WAT.]

Huh?! No, no, you're not getting any ice cream for punching Norma! In fact, punching Norma doesn't get you anything at all, okay?! So no more punching. If you promise not to ever, ever punch Norma again, then you get ice cream.

Yostuba--

I promised you a surprise. I've got far too much work to do here, but it isn't fair to keep this from you any longer. I heard rumours and did a little investigating, and it turns out there's a treasure buried in the village. I was going to have us look for it together, but I'm just too busy.

Perhaps you ought to see if you can find it? It's all yours, of course, since I can't help.

The only clue I have is that you should start looking at the fountain.

Sherlock


[Of course, there are no rumours. And he isn't busy at all. But it's no fun for a kid to drag a grown-up along on a treasure hunt.

He's cured his boredom vaguely at times during the week hiding notes around the village.

The first at the fountain reads, in handwriting that looks nothing like this, "Find someone to give me a push, and I spin children until they laugh."

When she makes it to the merry-go-round and finds the note underneath it, it reads "Now get something warm and sweet to eat."

Outside the bakery is another note. "Maybe you should look for something from home."

There's another one outside the Item Shop. "Maybe someone who's sick needs a visitor."

The clinic has yet another. "These trees will soon be covered with pink flowers."

Cherry Blossom Tree Hill is the location of the final little note. "Ask young Mister Hawkins where you ought to go from here."

And in the library, jut inside the front cover of Treasure Island, there's a map drawn. Folded and ripped and aged to make it look authentic.

The map will lead to just behind House 16, near where the three rivers merge. There's a small pile of fresh dirt. Just a little digging uncovers a small wooden chest, easily held by a child.

And inside, there are about a hundred plastic gold coins. Halloween and party treats, but he saw them in the Item Shop a few days ago and couldn't resist.]

Just gonna squeeze in here

[nothisbrother]

[Continuing from here]

WHAT?! YOU SON OF A--

[Very. Very bad choice, all of you.

He quickly reaches back and grabs a fistful of Hinata's hair, yanking his head down so their eyes are level. His eyes are red--YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS DON'T YOU?!] I believe it's time you realize who your true leader is. It is I, God, not that magenta haired witch. You are my faithful minion and as your leader I order you to grab hold of those two girls behind you.

[Letting go of his hair now]

I didn't invite you in here :|

[rollypolyclover]

[Looks like Naoi is doing his freaky party trick where he looks at you and then you do what he says. THAT SUCKS. She's been on the end of the hypno-stuff before and she didn't like it. Now is a time for action, not cowering behind her Yuri-shield!]

Yuri. Even if Yotsuba dies now I'll come back alive. Tell my daddy I love him and to make hamburg steak for dinner.

[She floats up, over Yuri's head and then points dramatically in the direction of Naoi and Hinata before dive bombing in their direction! Her fist are out, she's aiming to smack someone upside the head something fierce.]

GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

crashes this party

[magentarific]

[ WELP. Yuri as going to slam the door shut the second Naoi had grabbed Hinata, but then with a wild roar, Yotsuba sprang to action. ]

Yotsuba!

[ A good amount of violence isn't against her policy though, as long as Yotsuba doesn't end up dead. She kind of assumed that Naoi wouldn't kill the kid but Yuri had definitely decided it would be one of her duties to at least try to protect her.

Even if, as Yotsuba said, it's not like they wouldn't come back. A week or so is just a pain in the ass.

Also, kicking Naoi's ass sounded like a better idea. If Hinata had to become a precious sacrifice to that..

Well, Yuri would just have to deal with following Yotsuba into battle. And being the moron that she is, she goes straight to smack Hinata in the forehead, hard, right after Yotsuba's flying punches. Hey, maybe it'll snap him out of it. ]

[???] November 9th

[de_bel_survivor]

[Whenever Yotsuba returns home, she may find...a box. (Assuming Naoi didn't pick it up and crush it.)

It is a decidedly birthday present-y looking box. With wrappings and ribbons and all.

Should she look at it, she will see her name on a card.

FOR: Yotsuba
FROM: Kouki

Inside the box...are cupcakes and a polished is really a rock he found in a forest VERY REAL AND TOTALLY LEGIT moon rock.]

[???] November 9th

[rollypolyclover]

[Naoi better step the hell back and let her grab that box--

It looks exactly how she thinks presents should look like. Bows, the wrapping paper, everything. First Yotsuba spends a few good minutes just staring at how pretty it looks... Before taking it inside and tearing into it like any young child with a present would do.

Cupcakes. Cupcakes just for her! Oh boy, she's going to be on a sugar high today. But what's that-- IS THAT A MOON ROCK? Or is it just a normal rock... Kind of hard to tell. It looks cool and all polished up, so she'll hang onto it.

Cue excited cries of joys and laughing as she digs into the cupcakes in her room and gets frosting all over her hands, face and everything else she proceeds to touch.]
