Instead, he saw a smudge-faced girl with long, tightly-ringed blond hair held up in two pig-tails in a desperate run. The lace frill of an elegant (if dirty) black and white dress fluttered against her legs as her ran, dodging through the late afternoon crowd with surprising grace.
At her heels was a massively tall man dressed in a spring colored men's qi-pao. In one hand he held an unplugged hair dyer and in the other a brush. The two were barreling down the street at an incredible pace, barely paying attention to people who fell or were pushed aside in the pursuit.
"Look ooouuuttt!" Pon-chan had just wiggled her way out of a dense part of the crowd, right in front of a pretty blond boy. She was trapped.

The little blonde girl (girl?) skidded to a stop in front of him. Past her, past the crowd, Nokoru caught a glimpse of the man in pursuit.

"My dear child, surely a boy of such refinement can know a girl in need of a bath when you see one." D bent down, not condescendingly, only to be nearer Nokoru's height. He had to keep in mind that to him, Pon-chan was just another normal human girl. Chris had believed the same thing, after all.
"And I'm afraid that she's only playing the damsel in distress, I assure you she can stand up for herself when she wants."
"Which I AM!," The raccoon-in-girl's clothing shouted. "I don't see why every Spring you have to clean everything it the store, including me!" She tightened the hand on Noroku's should for effect and said the boy. "Please don't let him put that horrible ( ... )

He didn't move, though he did give Pon-chan a reassuring smile over his shoulder. Then he returned his steady gaze to D. "In the meantime, whatever you say, I can clearly see that her unhappiness at the prospect is real."
