26th Spark || [Video/Action] 4th Wall

[tiercelet]

It's just like any other day in the Breeding Centre: Merlin wakes with the dawn, putters about in the kitchen with tea to wake himself up, then starts checking up on the pokemon. Just like usual--or so he thinks.

As he's passing through the front hall, there's a woosh of something in the air that makes the picture frames he'd so carefully put up

[Running up to Merlin. Significantly less terrified this time.] Onii-san, onii-san!! I'm here again!!

[tiercelet]

Whoa! [oh boy, where did he come...from. Wait, he recognises this kid, doesn't he?]

I've...seen you before. [Except he's sure he hasn't. Right?]

[teenysuke]

Uh-huh, don't you remember? [Looking up, eager. Come on, Merlinbro.] You helped me last time! Or, you tried to, but it was still a lot of fun!

[tiercelet]

[The memories flood back into him as he kneels and ruffles the kid's hair.]

Yosuke. How do you keep ending up here like this?

[teenysuke]

[He laughs a little at the contact, but also shrugs.] I dunno... I closed my eyes and when I opened them again I was here!

[tiercelet]

[Well, since he hadn't seen the older Yosuke and younger Yosuke here at the same time, Merlin's going to assume that the younger version had been sent back home once...whatever causing the memory loss kicked in.]

And you ended up here. [Merlin stands up cheerfully.] That means I should look after you. Sooo. What do you want to do?

[teenysuke]

Ummm... [He looks up at Merlin with curious eyes. Nobody ever asks him this, so he's really at a loss. Well, until you hear the grumble of his stomach. Whoops.]

[tiercelet]

...hungry, are you? [Suppresses a chuckle.] When's the last time you ate?

[teenysuke]

Uhhhhh. Break... fast...

[Which was quite a few hours ago for him now.]

[tiercelet]

A while ago, then. [He ruffles Yosuke's hair again absently.] I think we should have something in the kitchen. What do you like?

[He knows some of the grown up Yosuke's favourites, after living with him so long, but the child version of his friend might prefer different things.]

[teenysuke]

H-heyyyy.... [He tenses a little, but then laughs. Now his hair's messier than before.]

Um. I really like omelettes and rice and pork cutlet sandwiches! Oh, and kakuni! That's my favorite. [Giggling.]
