Twenty-Seventh Flame-[Action]

[gogglesyndrome]

[Taichi's been made well-aware of the people that have come into the village, but he's not too concerned. He hasn't seen any duplicates of himself, nor has he seen any of his friends, so why worry, right?

Exactly. So instead he's decided the best course of action is to make a snowfort and he's currently hiding inside of it with a huge pile of snowballs, waiting to find innocent people to throw them at. Ridiculous child is ridiculous. Never mind the fact the top of his bird nest hair is probably sticking out.

So, do you get hit? Or do you bust him before he can throw one?]

Yeah...but it's okay, whenever we get to go home, we'll see him again.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Is there something we have to ... find? Maybe a ... gate, or a portal, or ... [She stops speaking suddenly]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...or?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

I-it's nothing. I shouldn't be... thinking of things like that when I still know so little about it.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

...now you've lost me.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it! .. Um. [Looking at coats now, lets just pull one out at random. It's much too big] How's this one?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

No way, it looks like a tent or something.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

[Raine giggles a little nervously] Ah... y-yes, I guess it does.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...[Big brother mode suddenly activated! He's busy looking through the coat rack and finds one that's probably closer to her size] What about this one?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

That looks like it will work better. [....] Oh... could you help me with Genis for a moment? I can't put this on while holding him ...

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, sure. Um...do you want me to...[Just standing there awkwardly trying to decide if he's supposed to take Genis off of her back or if she'll do it instead.]

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Just a moment... [She does it herself. It's obvious that she's used to it.] ... He sleeps through a lot. Um.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Here, I got him. [Taichi's sort of boggled at how easily this is coming for her. Seriously, she's like, his age and carting around a baby. But he takes Genis from her and adjusts him to hold onto him while he waits for Raine to put on the jacket.]

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Thanks... [Raine tries the jacket on now. Seems like Taichi has a good eye for this kind of thing.]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Sometimes Taichi really is a smart child. He's just patiently holding Genis while he waits for Raine to finish putting on the jacket.] See, totally fits a lot better.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

It's so... snug and warm. Are you really sure this is okay? [It's been a long time since she's had anyone help her like this.]

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

[Do not make Taichi coddle you.] Yeah, definitely! Maybe we should get you some gloves and a scarf, too. And maybe a jacket for Genis, too.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

Yes, he definitely needs something extra...

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

They should have baby clothes here, I know we've got a few babies in the village anyway.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

That's reassuring.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

The village provides for everybody. It makes it a lot easier than trying to do a lot of stuff ourselves.

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

But... don't you think that's strange?

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Which part?

[tinyhealer.livejournal.com]

That ... everything is provided for. Without - having to do anything for it, like work.

[goggle-syndrome.livejournal.com]

It's kinda weird, but it's awesome, isn't it?
