Jai peers out from behind a rather large door, labeled "Real Life XP", into a room filled with computer stuff, half-written stories and a ratehr irate muse. Jow swivels in his swivel chair, and glares at Jai.
"What the fuck, Jai?"
Jai shrinks down into her self, and steps out from behind the door into the room, mumbling a quiet "I'm Sorry?"
Jow glares some more. "Did you need to phrase that like a question?"
jai shrinks down again. "uh...no?"
jow glares again. Jai gulps and waves her hands in front of herself. "Well, uhm, you see, thing is, I've been kind of busy out there, you know," here, she points at the door, "And, well, things kind of got out of hand, what with making plans and dooing homework and the snow and getting sick, ohhh, and the snow! Jow, did I tell you about the snow? It was simply devine! i mean!" Jow glares at her and she stops her rambling explanation mid-way.
"It Snowed. And you didn't think to come in here and tell me. Why." Jow, if it was possible, glared harder.
"Well, you see, Jow-san, it's just that, well...ididn'twanttohavetostayinherewhileyouwe-rehavingfunsoidecidedtosaveittothelastminuteandthenofferto-takeoverhereforyousothenyoucouldgohavefunandIwouldn'tahvetodothechristmasshoppingwith-myparents."
"So. You were going to use watching over your imagination as an excuse to not get into fights with your sister, who you should, by now, be able to throw to the ground with a few quick moves.'
A hesistant nod.
"I like the way you think. Now, let's get Hakkai-san out of that manga of yours to watch this place, so we can go have some fun."
jai grins and runs off to find her manga.
Jow turns to the audience, whom Jai had failed to notice. "So. You see. this si why Jai's precence has been severely lacking over the past little while. She's been too busy being a small child, seeing as it snowed for the first time in quite forever at her place, quite contr'ry to the stereotype of her homeland. Guuten abendt, everyone, thanks for being 'patient' with her. She's a bit of a nutter, I'm sure you know. Good bye and good night."
And with this last speech, Jow flicks off the one of the screens (but only one, of about seventeen), and the light (though the room remained lit by the screens) and heads out the door, labelled, now, "Childhood", and closed it behind him. After a moment, Jow's voice can be heard conversing with Jai's, as the two discuss where to build their fort.
