i have no idea

Okay, but if we do take trips, Mom's gotta come, 'cause who else is gonna protect her? And Dad, because he might need a helping hand from another man. Shiratama, too! Else, she'll get lonely.

. . .

You're much smaller.

[lits]

Nuh-uh! I'm this many tall!

[And he holds up all ten fingers to cement this fact. It's all the fingers he has, Yoite, which is a lot.]

[am_i_alive]

(Wow that's cute.)

. . .

2/2

[am_i_alive]

I'm older still. And much taller.

[lits]

Yeah! So tall! Like... this many... [Still holding up hands.] Um, plus... All the fish in the sea.

I don't know if I can count that many, [he admits, sheepishly.]

[am_i_alive]

That's okay. You'll learn when you're older. (That makes perfect sense to him. Miharu is so tiny.) Your mother is taking care of you?

[lits]

Mhm! And, Daddy and I take care of her!

[am_i_alive]

Sounds nice. (Dreaming isn't healthy, but Miharu makes him dream.) You're so alive.

[lits]

[This seems a peculiar thing to say, because what else would he be?]

Yeah, [solemnly.] We're alive. It's 'cause of the heart, on the inside, but you can't see it. It jumps like a rabbit!

[lucitan]

Going on a trip there, kiddo?

[Mundane, why are you making him interact with such a tiny one? Seriously...]

If you go on a trip around here, I wouldn't worry too much. Time works in mysterious ways in these parts.

[lits]

Mysterious?

[lucitan]

It's weird, see? If you take trips around here, time might stand still where you're from. Doesn't go forward, doesn't go backward, and nothing happens.

[Explaining things to children... He's definitely not good at it. He barely sees the need to explain things to adults. But he'll play nice.]

So no need to worry, right?

[lits]

Ohh, [ the pitch rises and falls with it knowingly. ]

If I get to go on a trip here, I'll get back for snacktime, maybe! Snacktime is a good time. What's your favorite snack?

[lucitan]

Yeah, you'll be back for snack time, kid.

[... His favorite snack, huh. Angels don't normally eat, so...]

What's yours? [Deflecting, go!]

[lits]

Hello Pandas and bunny apples!

[lucitan]

[... Where did that box of Hello Panda biscuits come from. Either way, there's an entire box now.]

Want some?

[lits]

[ He gasps inward profoundly. ]

Woww! Wow! Yes, please! Can I?

[lucitan]

[Excitable fellow isn't he... Lucifel doesn't really know how to handle these innocent, bright-eyed types.]

Here you go, kiddo. [He'll just hand over the box.]

[lits]

Hooray! [ Snacktime, go. After munching on a few, crumbs on face and hands, he holds the box up. ]

Don't you want any?

[lucitan]

... Sure.

[He'll try one. It's not bad, but he doesn't really know how to explain the flavor...]

Pretty good.

[lits]

[ He just giggles, very pleased with himself. Of course, they're good! ]

See? They're one of the bests!

[lucitan]

I suppose I can't disagree.

[Hm.]

So, where you taking a trip to? Or are you just gonna stick around here?
