[HE IS THIRTY-ONE AND HAS A GIRLFRIEND, OKAY.]

Just wondering. I'm playing babysitter to a pair of seventeen-year-olds myself, except I have no idea where they ran off to right now.

[scootch]

Isn't seventeen a little old to worry about babysitting? I bet they ditched you.

[She was running around on her own when she was like eight okay.]

[dancing_flames]

[Utterly deadpan.]

You'd be surprised by what they can get into.

[scootch]

...Well, just let them get into trouble, then. Isn't that how kids learn?

[Sure worked for her.]

[dancing_flames]

Is that how you learned?

[He sounds amused.]

[scootch]

Mayyyybe.

[For better or for worse, anyway.]

[dancing_flames]

[See this look, Ellie? This is the look you're getting right now.]

[scootch]

[Ooh, how intimidating. Pff.]

What? It's not that big of a deal! Everyone does it that way at least once.

[dancing_flames]

Guess you've got a point. But some people do it that way more than others, and those are usually the ones who are the worst at it.

[scootch]

Eh, that's okay, too. If you're shit at it, you just learn the biggest lessons.

[dancing_flames]

[Shuda just looks at her for a moment, one eyebrow going up...

... and then he snorts.]

That's one way of putting it.

[scootch]

[She shrugs.]

I just say it like it is, dude.

[dancing_flames]

And you don't mince words either.

[He may not curse that much himself, but that doesn't mean he can't be amused by things like that coming out of the mouth of a young girl.]

[scootch]

Where I come from, there's no point. People don't have time to stand around figuring out how to be subtle. You say it like it is, and that's that.

[dancing_flames]

[That gets an outright laugh from him, a definite rarity.]

I like you, kid.

[... wait, that's probably a little condescending.]

... sorry, Ellie. That's actually the name of one of the kids I'm babysitting, too. I'll introduce you if I manage to find her and Haru.

[scootch]

[She shrugs. Hardly the worst thing she's ever been called.]

It's cool- not like it isn't true. I've never met somebody with the same name as me, though.

[dancing_flames]

That so? It's not exactly a common name where I come from either.

This place seems to be just full of interesting coincidences like that.

[scootch]

Well, to be fair, it's not that unusual, I don't think. In my world it's rare just because most people are dead.

[dancing_flames]

... most of the people in your world are dead?

[Please say that again, he wants to be sure he heard it right.]

[scootch]

Dead, or probably wishing they were.

[She shrugs. It's the nature of her existence, she's used to it.]

[dancing_flames]

That bad, huh?

[There's a note of understanding to his voice. He knows quite well that if Lucia isn't stopped, things in his world could easily get that bad too.]

Seems like a lot of worlds run into trouble like that at some point or another.

[scootch]

Yeah, that bad. For me it's just normal, though.
