[Elsewhere, nine-year old Yuan is still hiding out in one of the caves with lil' Raine and lil' Pronyma. He took on the role of guardian, seeing as he's a bit older and male. Awww, ain't that cute? Jushirou Ukitake may or may not be there as well. But Yuan doesn't really trust him either way, so... Yeah.

He got bored, though, so he's decided to practice his writing and ABC skillz. It's extremely squiggly, childish handwriting]

A. B. C. E... D. E.

What comes next? Uhm... D, E...

[short silence. He's thinking...]

G.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

...F.

[fortunefail]

...... You sound grumpy.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

I'm not.

[fortunefail]

Are too.

[salvationfound.livejournal.com]

...

You do know what comes after F, yes?

[fortunefail]

Uhm... It's G. For grumpy.

[hears him from a little bit away, and notices that he's looking over his book, so she opens hers up also]

Oh... is that your page, Yuan?

[action]

[fortunefail]

[he looks up to see Raine looking at her own book, displaying his attempts at writing the alphabet. Wow, instant copier book. Magi-technology these days is so neat!]

Ah... Yes, it is. I'm doing my homework. If I don't, father will get mad.

[action]

[wise_maiden]

Oh... okay. What do you need to do?

[action]

[fortunefail]

I have to practice the alphabet, so that I can learn how to spell.

[lots of smartypants emphasis on that last word.]

[action]

[wise_maiden]

...You don't know how to spell?

[agarazium.livejournal.com]

F, G. . .learning your alphabets?

[eh... action]

[fortunefail]

[he looks up]

Yes, I am.

[agarazium.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay.

I hope we can move out of this cave soon.

[fortunefail]

We will. When Raine is better, we can go find her mother.

[agarazium.livejournal.com]

Yes, and I'll go find mine.

[turnthebend]

Isn't practicing the ABCs kind of... dull?

[voice]

[fortunefail]

... It is. But I have to practice.

[voice]

[turnthebend]

Making a game out of it would be more fun.

[voice]

[fortunefail]

... A game?

[voice]

[turnthebend]

Ah... [there aren't any video games, so...] something like Hangman! You have to know your ABCs and some words.
