Of course there will be marshmallows. It'll be really nice on a chilly day like this, don't you think?

[And a chance to be properly neighborly. Before she can get much further into the house, there's just one more thing.] Here. Take off your shoes by the door-- there's a mat right here for them. And then I'll hang your coat up.

Really nice and yummy, it'll warm you all the way up!

[Slipping her shoes off and carefully placing them on the mat.] Just like at home! You take your shoes off her and then you go in your socks over here!

[Running out onto the rug for a moment before coming back and handing her coat to Raine.]

Thank you for your hospital-tality.

[She hangs up the coat, and turns back toward her.] And thank you for being such a big help. Lets head into the kitchen, all right? You can tell me about your day.

[Once Raine starts heading towards the kitchen Yotsuba will follow along behind, still talking.]

I'll tell you all about Yotsuba's schedule! First Yotsuba got up, yaaaawn~, good morning! It was still dark though so Yotsuba went back to sleep. Then it was morning and really bright, too bright! So Yotsuba didn't open the curtains. Then we had breakfast, it was okay.

[But seeing as Otonashi went home and it's just her, Yuri and Naoi no one really knows how to cook anything... Ready meals and fruit! Beast meal!]

I see. And then what happened? [She'll gesture for the girl to take a seat at the kitchen table while she takes down the cups from the cabinet.]

[Up onto the seat she goes.]

We ate all the food for breakfast and everyone was happy. Naoi went to do things but Yotsuba doesn't care what Naoi does. Yurippe was busy so I went to play. But then it started raining like whoah! Rain is really cool, and you shouldn't go out in typhoons because they're like rain but rainier and bigger!

[Idly swinging her legs as she keeps talking.]

Then it was lunch time. There were rice balls so Yotsuba ate four and saved one for later because rice balls are good, like food from heaven and that the grandmas and grandpas eat. It was still raining! Yotsuba went outside and stood in the rain! Refreshing!!

My goodness. And how long were you playing?

Uhm... [Flinging her arms out to her sides and stretching as far as she can.] This long!

That's a very long time, indeed.

[Now it's just a little wait for the water to boil.] What other sorts of things do you do around the village, Yotsuba?

Play! Play play play, and run, Yotsuba runs places too, like to Seventh Heaven. They have really good food you know? It's yummy, I'll have the special! [What else is there...] Playing? And napping!

[It's a very hectic schedule for a five year old you see.]

I see. And what do you think about trying new things?

...Are the new things going to be fun? Are they really really new?

Hm, lets see. Have you ever been to school before?

[Shaking her head! ...And then nodding.]

Yotsuba doesn't go to school! Yotsuba went to a cake festival and ate cake at school back home. [...] But it was a crepe. It wasn't a cake. [...Cough.] Elicia goes to school here!

That's right; Elicia is a student of mine. Would you like to go to school as well?

Yotsuba can go to school?! [WOW] Where do I sign, do I need my business card for Yotsuba to go to school?!

Of course you may. We can take care of all of the red tape on Monday. Does anyone else in your house attend? If not, you can walk over with me in the mornings.

Nope, Nowy and Yurippe don't do school stuff. But Yotsuba does now! [Heh she's the only one in the house going to school. That means she's better than Nowy in one more way~] Can I walk with you every day to go and take care of the red tape? Does it need lots of care like a pet?

Red tape is used for important occasions, so it's very special indeed. Now, this part is important, Yotsuba. Are you able to tell the time on the clock?

Ohhh red tape is important, okay, special stuff only. [Wait she needs to be able to tell the time to get in? Ah hell she hasn't a clue... But if she doesn't know maybe she won't get in?! This is a very unsure response.] ...Yes.

All right. That's one of the things we'll study together. When I knock on your door in the morning, you'll need to be dressed and ready to go. So you have to tell the others -- and I will speak to them as well, so they know -- to make sure you're awake by at least eight o'clock. That'll give you plenty of time to get ready, before my knock.

[This is suddenly starting to sound really official. Is this really what Ena and Fuuka did every day before school?]

It's like Yotsuba needs to make a new schedule up now, really busy. [...] does Yotsuba need to wear a neck tie and carry a brief case?

No, nothing like that. You might want to find a small bag you can carry a notebook in, though. You have friends who go to school, don't you? I bet they'll have some ideas for you.

Small bag, notebook... Ooh! I have a bag, Yotsuba has a bag, it's really cool and you can put stuff in it and you can carry it around! Gonna talk to all my friends and talk to them about school and bags and what to do. Going to go to school! [...] And drink cocoa!

[What timing! She's already bringing the cups to the table, now filled with delicious cocoa. They just need the marshmallows, which are a half step away in the pantry.] Indeed.
