All by ourselves

[laughswithfan]

[Video]

[ The video begins as the person holding the Network Device wanders down a long vacant hallway. The girl stops at each door she comes to, opening them and looking around before wandering on to the next room.
Living room - empty
Bedroom - empty
Bathroom - thankfully empty
Kitchen - also empty…
With a sob the camera is placed on the table as Lady Aska climbs up into one of the tall chairs. ]

When we arrived there were a lot of people here in this beach house. Now we are the only one left…

[ Eyes that have clearly been filled with tears become glassy again as a fresh batch forms and runs down her cheeks. ]

What are we supposed to do now? We are so lonely…


[OOC: Only the Lonely Curse - Though this loneliness has been growing since the other members of the Rayearth Beach house left the City. Lady Aska has been living in this big house all by herself since they disappeared.
Note - Tags to be answered later as I have to go out. ^_^ ]

And crazy people don’t like hugs?

[Clinging to ya there. Nether can be lonely with such a bear hug! ]

[stargathering]

No? No-one has cooked with you before?

[ He might have been pretty disappointed with her if she did that! ]

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

We were supposed to learn diplomatic… and boring things. No one ever showed us how to do fun stuff like this!

[One of the berries does end up being eaten though. ]

Is it time for these to go in?

[stargathering]

[ He nods as he measure outs some other dry ingredients to add. ]

I know what you mean. I had to take a lot of boring lessons when I was younger, too. [ Though not when he was six... He glances back over to her at her question. ]

Not quite yet. Those go in with the wet stuff.

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

Some people just don't like to be touched and overreact when such happens to them.

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[The annoyances that come with being a Princess. ]

We guess everyone does… but, that doesn’t make them anymore fun.
We don’t like studying at all!

[She watches while these dry ingredients are also added to the mixture, helping where she can by holding the bowl so it doesn’t scoot too far away. ]

When do we add the wet things?

[stargathering]

[ Yes. :'( ]

I don't either. [ Huff. ] But it'll come in handy in the future.

As for the combining... [ He brings the smaller bowl over along with the eggs and milk. ] Measure out a cup of milk, then we'll add it to other stuff after I add the eggs.

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[How dangerous giving a child milk to pour! That almost always results in a spill of some kind. In this case just a minor one that she quickly mops up with a nearby dish towel before it can get onto the floor. ]

Oops!
Its ok, we caught it in time.

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

We haven’t run into anyone like that!

[Good thing… since she’s still hugging her pal Huey. ]

[stargathering]

[ Tyr is not that experienced with kids. He didn't realise it would result in a bigger mess! But he is glad she didn't just drop the (thankfully not full) container. ]

Good job. All right, put it in this bowl. [ He points to the empty one, an egg in one hand. ]

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

[He'll go ahead and lightly ruffle her head while smirking a bit.]

Good, if you did I'd have to go ahead and hurt them.

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[He is doing a GREAT job for some one with no experience with kids.
The milk gets places into the indicated bowl with only a minor splash. ]

How come it goes over here with the egg? Doesn’t it have to make the flour and stuff wet?

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[Ruffling her hair, just like Elder used to do when he was around. Well, you pretty much guaranteed Aska’s undying friendship there. ]

We like you too!

[Can’t reach the top of your head though, so the hug will have to do. ]

[calculusdragon.livejournal.com]

It is hard sometimes to be the only one of my kind, and to be without my captain. I would like it very much if you came to visit me today.

[stargathering]

[ It's that RPG leader charisma or something. ]

It will. We're not going to keep them separate forever.

[ He breaks an egg into the bowl with one hand, then the other. ]

We're just mixing it with the egg first so they can come together. It'll make it easier later.

[ He's smart enough to leave the whisking to himself. ]

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[Good man. Whisking can be VERY messy. Aska just sits back and watch as the egg swiftly combines with the milk. ]

Oh, if it is something like that it makes sense. You wouldn’t want to find a big piece of egg in one of the pancakes, huh?

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

We will!

[Its decided and you too are so getting a hug… er… some how. Maybe she can wrap her tiny little arms around a dragon finger or something. ]

We won’t allow anyone to remain lonely!

[stargathering]

[ Yes, he could imagine the mess of egg and milk is much worse than just milk or just flour or just any one thing. ]

That's right. [ He thinks. He's just following what Gremio does. ] It all just comes together more easily when you're not fighting with mixing both of them in at once.

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

This won't end with you attempting to blindside me with a hug every day now would it?

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

We think we know what happens next! You slowly pour the milk and eggs into the dry stuff while stirring to make sure it turns into batter, right? We saw Umi do that once.

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[She is about to boldly… and loudly… proclaim ‘Yes!’ when she pauses and considers this carefully. ]

That… won’t turn you into one of those grumpy types that doesn’t like hugs would it?

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

I'm joking. If your loneliness is getting to you again just come and find me.

[laughswithfan.livejournal.com]

[Quick, happy nod of her head! It’s a good thing he explained she is sometime too literal for jokes like that. ]

We will!!

[Again a pause. He was always so nice to her… ]

Thank you for looking out for us!

[child-radical.livejournal.com]

[It's cause he found himself to be concerned over his crush's friends over the years.]

It's no problem.

[stargathering]

You have a good memory!

[ He finishes combining the eggs and milk and picks up the bowl just to place it closer to her. ]

Can you hold it?

[ Opposed to dropping it. It's not too heavy, but she is a six year old kid. ]
