I must be the light

[Anyone in this hallway better look out, cause there's a full grown and very muddy chocobo racing down it.]

PERCY!

[And a Namine in a white coat chasing after it. She doesn't look particularly happy. Especially when she notices that she's not in her normal time and her chocobo isn't letting her slow down enough to take the time to think.

Okay that's it. She portals in front of it, and it screeches to a stop, scrambles to turn around to run in the other direction, before a whirlwind of paper surrounds it, creating an effective barrier to keep it from getting away again.]

Bath time. Now.

[Then maybe she can figure out exactly when she is.]

[ooc: older runawaycrayon . Yes, I know. I'm addicted to making older accounts.]

[Axel's leaning against the wall, watching. His right arm is currently in a sling due to a fight he was in prior to landing here in the DR. He's chuckling.]

Didn't know you could be so assertive, kiddo.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[She's not such a little girl anymore, Axel. She looks mid to late 20's now.

Glances at him once she's sure Percy the chocobo isn't going to run off the moment she looks away.]

Well sometimes it's needed.

[chronicbackstab.livejournal.com]

[He is so very much aware of that, actualy. But he's still going to call you kiddo.]

Yeah. Nice to see you have some backbone in there. Of course, since your not the Namine I know, maybe you've always had it in you. [The Namine he knows is tiny and cute, not probably close to his age and... nicely shaped. :| He doesn't know what to make of it really.]

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[:< No fair.

And she used to be tiny and cute! She just grew up!]

Growing up in this place you have to learn those things.

[Percy is trying to sneak off now, but the papers rearrange themselves into a wall blocking his path. Yes, that is Namine doing that.]

[chronicbackstab.livejournal.com]

[Even older!Namine=kiddo in his mind. Which is why he's doing his best not to notice just how much you've grown up.]

I've heard that it's bad here. But you seem like your doing pretty well.

[Watching the way those papers are moving with quite a bit of interest.]

I see you've learned a few tricks.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[Got quite the figure now, doesn't she? :D]

I've had time to practice.

[He might just be surprised at how strong she's become. Though her abilities are limited to memories and her artwork, she's still developed them pretty well.]

[chronicbackstab.livejournal.com]

[Noooooot looooooookiiiiiing!Totaly looking.]

I guess you have. Your all grown up now.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[Totally oblivious!]

Not all grown up. But getting there! I don't think Dad will consider me grown up until I'm forty or something...

[She's finally referring to her adoptive family as she should. She just didn't think she deserved to until she had a heart so she could actually return their feelings.]

[chronicbackstab.livejournal.com]

You got a family here then? Guess your doing pretty good for yourself.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

Percy?

[the last he remembered, Percy was a tiny ball of fluff]

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[Oh hey she knows that voice! Turns to look at him with a smile. So that's what time she's in. Okay, no problem.

Except for Percy using the distraction to get away again. He doesn't like baths, can you tell?]

PERCY! GET BACK HERE!

[Ugh. Sorry Daddy, she has to go catch her chocobo. Again. :|

Care to lend a hand?]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

[he blinks, quickly portaling in front of Percy and pulling some greens out of his pocket, because Daddy is always prepared]

Whoa, Percy! You know you shouldn't be out in the hallways.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[You now have Percy's undivided attention! Namine would have tried that, but she didn't have any greens, and didn't have time to get any.]

Thanks.

[...Percy is leaning forward to try to snatch those greens now.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

[he makes sure he catches hold of Percy before letting him munch]

I'm an old hand with chocobos, Namine.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know.

[Percy: NOMNOMNOM.

And Namine's taking a quick glance around. Hmm, where's the closest place to wash the big guy...?

Oh, and by the way, feel free to notice how much your adopted little girl has grown up. She's, a little bit of a head turner now. And never notices when someone actually looks at her]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

[he is indeed looking you over as he leads Percy to the chocobo stables]

You've grown up well.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[Smiles.]

Thanks.

[Considers pushing her luck and asking if he thinks she's grown up enough to have a boyfriend yet. She actually finds his little freak outs amusing sometimes.]

[savedfate.livejournal.com]

[He missed the first part, so he's kinda blinking at the whirlwind of paper in confusion, Tabitha chirping on his head.]

Whoa.

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[Oh. Hi. Percy warks at you two. Save him from the bath please! He's not that dirty!

Just, covered in mud from head to toe.

Namine however is very focused on making sure there's no openings in the paper barrier, which is stronger than it looks by the way, so Percy doesn't escape again. It took long enough to catch him last time.]

[savedfate.livejournal.com]

Is it always that stubborn?

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

[Blinks and turns to look at him before a big smile appears on her face.]

Oh yeah.

[Percy is now watching Tabitha. Wow you're tiny!]

[savedfate.livejournal.com]

Wow, he's stubborn.

[Tabitha just tilts her tiny head. Big giant bird seems familiar.]

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

Ever since he was a baby.

[Namine is amused that you dont recognize her. Then again, she has changed a lot. And it's not just the heart and powers. She's grown up a bit more physically as well. She was a late bloomer. What.]

[savedfate.livejournal.com]

How long did it took before he grew as big as that?

Clearly I dont know how long it takes for chocobos to grow up XD

[mendedcrayon.livejournal.com]

Not long at all. Chocobos can get big pretty quickly.

[Smiles a Tabitha.]

Make the best of sitting in his hair while you can.
