Events and flashbacks.

**Finally, a day without monsters.

But, it's not like all the problems are over with. Val moves out of bed and... just about falls out of it. There's a nice thud in the house, and a very young yelp. The journal flips to the floor just the same.**

Oh my... this again? Can't have a day's peace, can we? Well, I always thought I was a cute child.

Mmm, I'm Kirimi's size again. I'll have to see about borrowing some of her clothes for now. I just might go see everyone anyway.

**And so, after getting dressed properly, a girl of short stature and floor-trailing hair is wandering about, floating on a nice breeze. (Looks surprisingly like this girl though.) Anyone is encouraged to interrupt her adventure to see anyone she knows (Golbez, Nel, Ceodore, Charlotte)

[There is one grouchy teenager that Valvalis should recognize tromping through the village with a sour expression on his face. Armor's different from what she expects too, but shouldn't be too unfamiliar as it's common issue dark knight, standard for all the Red Wings. He's so engrossed in his own brooding thoughts, he doesn't even spot the miniaturized cousin floating nearby.]

**She never knew Cecil as a Dark Knight, so, she won't confuse father and son. It's the face as she moves to catch up that makes her recognize him.**

Ceodore? Playing dress-up today? **Just who is this cute little girl?**

Huh?

[Who is this kid? That's a great way to break up a hefty brooding session.]

Who are you?

**Of course she wouldn't be recognized. Which, makes this a great time to pick on him.

She's suddenly right in his face, hugging him around the neck.**

I missed you so much, daddy!

WHAT?! I'm not your father, get off of me.

[Apparently a bad attitude comes with the armor. He's trying to pry this pesky child off of him now.]

**Good luck with that. But, after some pushing, she'll give up on her own.**

But... but my daddy wore armor just like that... And has hair like yours... He even named me after his cousin...

You... you don't remember me anymore, daddy? **Playing the pity card... OH SO WELL!**

Stop. That. Who are you? Who do you belong to?

[His patience with this child is wearing thin.]

Really now Ceodore? I expected at least you to fall for the sob act. **Hoshi- That's a turnaround!**

It's Valvalis. I've... well, I suppose this is what I'd look like if I actually were a child. Cute, isn't it? **Now THAT sounds like your cousin.**

Valvalis? Wait, what happened to you?

[So he's not going to snap her neck anymore, yet. He's not too thrilled with the phony daddy act, but everyone else has been strange today already.]

And I don't find your little joke funny.

Really? **That gets a blank stare.** That's not like you. Matter of factly, you're not really acting yourself at all.

You're acting more like your father every day. I don't like this Ceodore... **A genuine look of concern... Don't be a meanie-face like Cecil.**

[Not like him? She just compared him to his father. Like he doesn't get enough of that already. His response is to yell and throw his helmet onto the ground.]

Stop comparing me to him! Why does EVERYBODY compare me to HIM? I am my own person, I am not my father!

I only do it because I don't WANT you to be like him. Of course you're your own person, but, when you act like him, what do you expect.

Though, at least that armor is a far different cry from his. So you're getting somewhere. But the brooding... Honestly... **Glaaare.**

[He folds his arms over his chest, looking markedly unamused.]

Armor's the same as his. What are you getting at?

Oh... well...

What I'm getting at, is the more you act like him, the more you're going to be compared. You sudden change in attitude doesn't help at all. You were far more cheerful last time I got to see you.

[Still not amused. Looks like he's going to be settling in for a right long brooding session too.]

Are you finished?

*siiiiigh*

I suppose. I've other people to go see, cousin. And you're rather spoiling my good mood.

Probably the only thing I'm good at.
