[Mail Matt is his normal age again, but someone else obviously isn't; Matt appears to have a sleeping blue puffball curled up next to him. There are branches around them, slanted up in a triangle, a kids' version of a homemade fort. The ceiling's a bit low for someone who's suddenly grownup-sized, and Matt's slouching, and keeping his voice down ( Read more... )

Mail?

[Here, have a clearly suspicious looking little blond eying you, you grown up sitting so close to his new friend. Blue eyes narrow a bit as Yuui scowls at the man.]

Are you sure you're Mail? Because if you hurt my friend...

[Matt's torn between laughing at Yuui's protectiveness and wincing at the suspicion and the use of his real name.]

Yeah, really sure. Only I don't go by that anymore. I'm called Matt now.

And trust me, little dude, I'm the last person who'd ever let anything happen to him.

[Those blue eyes are still narrowed a bit as he cants his head to the side and gives the sternest look his seven-year-old-ish self can muster. Because he can understand using a different name. Until coming here, everyone in Celes called him Fai after all, but he'd really liked Mail and Elfangor was nice too! So...]

You promise, Matt?

I promise.

[He draws an X over his heart with a finger.]

We're best friends when we're both grown up, too. [It seems like the easiest way to explain it to a kid.]

Is someone looking out for you and Fai?

[Elfangor is drifting between sleep and wakefulness, when a quiet voice tugs him toward the latter. Oh, right, he and Mail had built a fort yesterday, they must've fallen asleep. He stretches, blinking four eyes blearily--but a second later all four are focused on the adult sitting so close to him.]

< What-! > [He flails, somehow managing to fall over when he'd already been laying down.]

Hey, it's okay!

[Matt backs off the little bit he can in the close quarters, holding his hands up: not a threat, not gonna hurt you.]

It's me, um. Mail. [It feels weird to say his own name aloud.] I grew up, and you didn't. I dunno why.

< Mail?? >

[Elfangor stares at him. He certainly looks like what he thinks Mail might look like when they grow up, but can't help but be a little bit suspicious.

But he knows Mail wouldn't lie to him, and if this is Mail, then he must be telling the truth. He peers up at him, and after a moment of indecisiveness reaches up to grab his goggles and pulls them over his own eyes.]

< That's not fair! I should have gotten big, too! > [He knows he's whining, but he doesn't care, he's allowed to.]

[Matt laughs, blinking against the light, filtered by the branches but still bright.]

You do that when we're grown up, too.

[He knows Elfangor's going to ask him questions, some of which are bound to be awkward; Matt's already flushing faintly.]

And this place kinda specializes in not fair. But I'll look out for you 'til you get back to normal. If that's okay with you, I mean. [This is mostly for form's sake. Elfangor's got a guardian whether he wants one or not.]

That's not fair!

[Mini-Gau no likeys. Pout pout.]

Yeah, I'm actually not too excited about it, either. It's weird.

...is this Gau?

Did you know me when I was big too?

[Sudden excitement here.]

WAS I REALLY TALL?

[Video] mightstealyrcar May 31 2011, 02:21:06 UTC
Um. [Matt tries to be diplomatic.] Not super-tall. But you were younger than me and already about my height.

How old are you now?

Is Elfangor a kid still?

[Video] mightstealyrcar May 31 2011, 02:16:27 UTC
Yeah. Heh, he's all tiny.

Sorry about staying out all night. We sort of built a fort. You doing okay?

[ Other than making me pulling my hair out and worrying me? I'm fine.

But Jessica swallows her words before they leave her mouth. Matt doesn't deserve that. At least he's safe, that's the important thing.

The most important thing. ]

Yeah, I'm fine. Is there anyone else with you?

No, just us. We'll be back soon, but um. I'll probably sleep outside again.

Well, that's random.

Dude.

[Whispering, and blushing.]

Elfangor's all tiny, you should see this.
