SOME PEOPLE WANNA SEE WHAT I SEE.

“Yeah! RGB asked me what are humans made of! Or….did I hear that in a dream? Either way, I am tough! I lose sometimes, but I always get right back up and keep trying! And I promise I’ll go easy on you!” {/This was the best news for the young girl ever since she got here. RGB was strict, and Madras was more fun. They could share the chair together, and play games! What more could this eight year old want?}

“I’ll water them! I used to help the people in my apartment do it all the time! But if it makes RGB more beautiful, and happier……then I think it’s okay! Cause as mean as he is, he’s still really nice. I think we should show him our appreciation!”

❛ judging from you, i’d say they’ve got magic at their centers-- but i don’t know many. maybe you’re just special? either way, i thank you in advance for not immediately knocking me over. i’ll try to play your... sports... the way another human would, whenever we get a chance. ❜ it was almost palpable how happy the girl was; and it had an odd mirror effect on her own mood. it wouldn’t last, she knew, but it was still nice.

“It is a fun game! I used to play all the time, and sometimes the boys would be bigger than me and knock me down…but I got up!” {/Nothing made the young Hero happier than when she was able to share the things she liked, and had someone genuinely interested in them. Her facial expressions soon weren’t enough. She was moving her whole little body trying to demonstrate to Madras how the game went.}

“I was like BOOM! And I knocked them off the hill! But there’s a ton of other fun games that we play too! Like…sports! All kinds of those! And then we can get RGB more roses! Cause some of the parents bring their kids flowers when they win a game or something? So we can get them there!”

the miniature monster listened intently, supplying her story with little oos and aahs, taking note of the parts that sounded dangerous. tonight’s events had left her warming up rather impressively to the child, truth be told, and she would probably have humored her even if she’d found it dull. there’s even a little hop in response to her sound effect.

     ❛ —WHAT?! i’m not the one     who snapped my suspenders!     when was the last time you     even said the word ‘sorry?’ i     think now is the time for some     practice, lest you forget! ❜

“Oh! So its like girls against boys! I used to play that all the time in school! Like…..there was this game, called king of the hill! And you had to push other people off and stand at the top for like….uhm…..five minutes! And whoever was standing the longest, wins the game for their team!” {/Her grin was met with an extremely jubilant smile. This was sounding fun! But also, a tad bit unfair. Who would be on RGB’s team?}

“Okay! But should we get him a mirror? Cause I don’t think he can see himself without it. Or can he see the reflection of his own screen?”

❛ precisely! ... ooh, that sounds like a fun game. let’s find a nice hill and push him off-- wait, no, not yet. he’ll just get even huffier. ❜ she was definitely taking notes for her next adventure, though. as for who’d be on his team-- he could make plays just fine on his own, she figured.

     ❛ she is not qualified to give     insights on life! she doesn’t     even know what the square     root of 64 is, and you expect     her advice to be credible?! ❜

  ❛ i think that’s precisely why it is.     her intentions are pure and clear--     she’s cutting to the heart of this. ❜

  madras is gesturing like the ghost of   someone’s college professor. 

     ❛ BETRAYAL. ❜

“Take one for what team? Are we playing a game?” {/As soon as Madras said she would keep her from worrying, her fearful face turned into one of absolute gratuity.} “Wait….why is he waiting for an apology? He can give those himself!”

“Ma-madras….you promised you wouldn’t eat RGB. But…you two are fighting? Does that mean you’re going to eat him now?”

    ❛ why do i let you near me?! ❜

     quickly he brings a hand up to rub at his chest, letting out a small whine from the soreness. he really should be more wary around the cyclops, but even when he is, she still manages to find the opportune moments to get at him. he almost despised her for her trickery. but she knows as well as he does that he couldn’t truly detest her.

    ❛ flattery is not getting you     away with this one, madrasojo!     you are so cruel to me. ❜

  ❛ good question! do you crave     danger, or do you find saying     no to me difficult? it’s one or     the other-- both, maybe? ❜

  his distress is acknowledged (catalogued, even!) with a coy bat of her eyelashes, one hand rising to pat him where she’d stung-- a gesture blending mockery with apology. she couldn’t help herself! he was so reactive to her taunting that it never got dull. the price of personality was high, wasn’t it? 

     “I do not wish to speculate on what could      possibly be going through his mind while I am      still here. I can’t help but wonder if I’m making      a terrible mistake by remaining here.

     You see him much more frequently than I, so      you do not see the changes I do. Though I’m      worried he will not be the same RGB I left if I      happen to leave again… what do I do?”

   ❛ does it feel like a mistake? because if not,       i doubt it is. there’s no way that he regrets       you-- only the fact that you cannot stay.        not forever, anyway. and on the contrary--       i daresay it’s the opposite that makes him       harder to see.

     if you depart without so much as speaking to       him, though-- that’s bound to go over much worse       than the first time. the only thing worse than losing       something precious is having to lose it again.
