[D8 SEE. RUTHLESS. GOSH.]

Ohhh, right. So you've got to see them as best you can now or you have to wait a whooole year!

BEAUTIFULLY HIDEOUS?

[lunas]

That's right! And the best place to watch fireworks is as high up as possible!

[ ... wait.. looking down at Yotsuba.. ]

Um.. you're pretty small, aren't you, Yotsuba-chan?

HIDEOUSLY BEAUTIFUL

[rollypolyclover]

[As high as possible?! WELL THEN.]

Yotsuba is short for now, but that can be fixed. Piggy back ride!

[Sticking her arms up towards Usagi. Pick her up, put her on your shoulders and enjoy being used as a booster seat for a little girl. :3

Or, you know, deny her. :|]

[lunas]

[ as if Usagi would deny something like that, pfft. UP YOU GO, YOU LITTLE SAILOR SOLDIER IN TRAINING.

... Oh, even if Yotsuba is pretty young, this is still heavier than she thought.. forgive Usagi if she wobbles a little. ]

I-- is this okay..?

[rollypolyclover]

Hoooh! Higher! This is a good view, Yotsuba can see my house from here. Wow!

[Resting her hands on either side of Usagi's head to make sure she has something to hold onto.]

Are you okay down there Usagi?

[lunas]

[ yes, sure, she's fine.. she's just slowly dying, don't mind her.. go on without her.. ]

Ah, yes! Of course I-Iiii'm fine, Yotsuba-chan! If I couldn't handle this much, I wouldn't know what to do.. [ ack ack ack ]

[rollypolyclover]

Okay! Have fun!

[Blissfully unaware of Usagi's suffering.]

If you couldn't handle this much then you could put Yotsuba down. But then I wouldn't be as high!

[lunas]

At least this way you're probably the biggest person in the village, right? [ never mind that Usagi and Yotsuba combined still can't beat some people.. ]

Everyone will be scared-- [ oof ] of you!

[rollypolyclover]

Raaah! Really scary, even scarier when combined!

[...]

Jumbo is probably taller though. Like... Four times as tall as us now. He's huge.

[lunas]

Who's Jumbo? [ blink. ] One of your friends, Yotsuba-chan?

[rollypolyclover]

Yeah! He's a friend from home! And he's daddy's friend too, he runs a shop where there are lots of flowers like WHOAH.

[Leaning forward in front of Usagi's face. She might be able to see the top of Yotsuba's upside-down head sliiiding into her vision.]

He's tall, like a big ellyphant.

[lunas]

[ woah, hi there, Yotsuba face. ]

Like a real elephant?! I mean, I don't think a guy that big would fit into a shop, you know!

[rollypolyclover]

[sup]

Yeah, like a really ellyphant!! He can fit in places, but he has to duck down because he's really big.

[...]

My head feels funny like this.

[lunas]

I wonder if he has that long weird kind of nose too..

[ yes, mumbling to herself here. ]

And I think it's since the gravity is starting to pull it to the ground bit by bit! If you don't watch out, your head might just pop off your neck like that out of nowhere!

[rollypolyclover]

[Oh good lord that sounds scary. Flipping her head back up and wrapping her arms around Usagi's head. SHE WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HER HEAD THANK YOU VERY MUCH.]

Yotsuba wants to keep this head though, it's used to talk and eat stuff! Help!!

[lunas]

W-- waaah, Yotsuba-chan, I can't see like this, I can't see..!

[ HANDS IN FRONT OF HER EYES HELP HELP STUMBLING AROUND WILDLY. ]

[rollypolyclover]

[NOW HER RIDE IS WOBBLING ABOUT, NEVER LETTING GO.]

Yotsuba is going to fall, hold on Usagi!! This is bad, very bad, Yotsuba doesn't have a seat belt gyaaaa! Gyaaaahahaaaa!!

[lunas]

[ MORE WOBBLING AND WILDLY RUNNING ACROSS THE ROAD AAAH THERE BETTER NOT BE OTHER PEOPLE AROUND OR THEY'D BETTER RUN TOO. ]

I can't see, I still can't seee..!!

[rollypolyclover]

[AAAAH WHY IS EVERYTHING WOBBLING AND SPEEDING UP QUICK HIT THE EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON!]

Yotsuba can see! Yotsuba can see!! WE'RE GOING TO DIE!! GYAAAAAHAAAAAH!!

[Letting go out Usagi's head... AND GRIPPING ONTO HER NECK BY WRAPPING HER LEGS AROUND IT AND FLAILING MADLY.]

[lunas]

[ And Usagi said, 'let there be light'.

And then there was light.

And Usagi saw it wasn't good.

(considering there's a tree right in front of them, which Usagi slams into at full speed, making her fall over on the ground. ]

[rollypolyclover]

[Seeing as Yotsuba was clinging to Usagi for dear life she goes down too, flopping unceremoniously over Usagi.

Just gonna lay perfectly still and not move. That was exciting and scary at the same time! She needs a moment to recover from this awful trauma.]

[lunas]

[ and so they're just lying there.. it would be awful if someone passed by and saw this though since it looks like they're dead or something. ]

Y-Yotsuba-chan.. Are we still alive..?

[rollypolyclover]

[Yup. Lying there. Doing nothing. if by awful you mean wonderful then yes, I agree.]

Dunno, everything is dark. [Might be because her eyes are closed.] Yotsuba will check. [Pinching herself on the arm now.] Ow.

[lunas]

W-what's that ow for?! How did you even check whether you're alive or not?!

[ she's not lifting her head enough to be able to see.. ]

[rollypolyclover]

Yotsuba was pinched and I felt it, so Yotsuba is alive. See?

[Reaching over to find Usagi's arm and then giving her a pinch too.]
