*Oh, hey, it's the weird kid in class who drags around a plush dog all day and sometimes chews on it. She waves.*

Will you be my friend? All my friends moved away.

I wanna play with someone. Do you guys wanna play house? Or colour? I bet we could even get all the dress-up stuff and become pirates who take over the school.

(Kindergarten AU yaaaaaaaay. This is set up to be like the High School, College, and Hogwarts viruses, so everyone gets to be five and play around!)

I wanna fight some monsters! [This coming from a adorable kid in curls. Yayoi is incredibly precious.]

[ifbymyhands]

Did you see some? What kind?

[pikapikapikarin]

Big ones! They look like clowns.

[ifbymyhands]

Really? Where'd they go?

[pikapikapikarin]

Um, somewhere I think?

[ifbymyhands]

Let's find them! But we gotta get stuff to fight them with!

[pikapikapikarin]

I think it's near the cardboard!

[No glasses for little Kendrix, and her hair's just falling out of her ponytail right now.]

Okay! Wanna go to the playground?

[ifbymyhands]

Okay! What do you wanna do?

[powerofpink]

The slide's fun! The twisty one.

[ifbymyhands]

Do you like climbing up it like you're not supposed to?

[powerofpink]

Umm...[That means yes.]

[ifbymyhands]

Me too!

[powerofpink]

Okay. Don't tell anyone, though!

[mariannethree]

I've never had a friend my age before!

Hi! What's your name?

[ifbymyhands]

Kano! Who're you?

[mariannethree]

I'm Marie!

Why did your friends leave? You seem nice!

[ifbymyhands]

I dunno. Lots of stuff happens like that to people.

[mariannethree]

When are they coming back?

[smokepuff]

[This is the bossy girl who wants everybody to listen to her or else.]

We're going to play palace.

[ifbymyhands]

We always do that.

[smokepuff]

'Cause it's a good game.

[ifbymyhands]

That's just 'cause you always wanna be queen of everything.

[smokepuff]

[Azula huffs.]

So?

[She doesn't see what's so wrong with wanting to be queen.]

[ifbymyhands]

Other people wanna play too.
