Action - 004 [4th Wall - Open to all]

[moezama]

[...there seems to be a lot of people showing up today here in Luceti. Technically New Feathers were still showing up but...today there just seems to be more of them coming in than usual.

Well, he'll try not to get into people's way as he tries to head for the library. There, he'll just hide out in his usual spot, in a corner of the library and hide behind his books. He's been here so many times and still couldn't locate what he was looking for.

You can meet him anywhere along his path to the library, or at the library.]

[ Eww books why do people even like these things--

Green hair?

Is that green hair?

THAT. IS. SO COOL. ]

Hey mister, whatcha readin'?

[wakkawakkawakka]

[Hey Kazuma, hey Kazuma, do you see this yellow sphereical thing? Yeah. It's coming towards you and ready to grope some leg. What do.]

WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA

[moezama]

[Books are awesome ok!? Don't diss them!]

Huh? [He looks up from his book and stares at the boy looking at him.]

Ah...it's a book on alchemy.

1/4

[moezama]

[keep reading of course]

[moezama]

[...wait]

[moezama]

[What is that sound...?]

[moezama]

[Oh god! what is that!? Dropping his book and climbing on the couch he was one] W-What the-!?

[chibizaya]

Alchemy? What's that?

[ He's five he doesn't know these big words. Moreover, he's more concerned with your hair so he's just gonna go ahead and clamp onto your cranium. ]

Is it the stuff that makes your hair green?

[fallinghero]

[A blonde with pointed ears and brilliant crimson wings with white tips approaches Kazuma near the library entrance.]

Hi! I'm Link. Sorry to bother you but I'm looking for someone named Zelda. She's about my height, with ears like mine, and she's got golden hair. Have you seen her? I thought she might be here since she likes books... this is a library, isn't it?

[beauteggful]

[ And just up ahead, there is a lonely little egg half-buried in the dirt, just out of range of being stepped on sob. Help, Kazuma, help! ]

[moezama]

It's-ah! [Ow ow ow you're pulling his hair and that really hurts, Izaya!]

No, it's not! Can you please let go?

[chibizaya]

[ Oh no someone got mad at him!! He's definitely letting go now. ]

S-sorry. Did I hurt you?

[ And now he's crying a little. Okay maybe not a little. ]

[teddybed]

[And then there was a ghost girl popping out of a nearby shelf, but only halfway.]

Hello-o-o-o? What are you reading?

[freakdeer]

[moezama]

[A pause as he slowly looks up at the person that was talking to him.]

Zelda...? Ah, I'm afraid I haven't met anyone that fits that description. [...Was he an elf?] And yes, this is a library.

[wakkawakkawakka]

[Goddammit man, how is he supposed to get to you now? Curse you, couch. Curse you.]

WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA !

[So Pac-Man will keep on bumping into the couch in his burning fury and everlasting rage.]

[fallinghero]

Are you sure? I mean, it's crowded so I guess she could have sort of blended in...

[His ears droop, disappointed, but he perks up a moment later.]

Maybe she's already inside!

[And in he goes, but he does stop to hold the door open for Kazuma. A knight is helpful to everyone, after all!]

OMG

[moezama]

[Thankfully Kazuma's egg senses are kicking in and he spots the little lonely egg before his feet finds it! Ahh, don't worry little egg, he's coming to help you right now.]

Who left this here...? [Carefully, he clears off the dirt and picks it up.]

[moezama]

I'm reading- [He stops mid-sentence when he saw the girl with half of her body inside a bookshelf]

H-hah...!? [Why yes, she slightly startled him. Slightly]

[not_meatbuns]

[Ah, she was hoping she would run into you~! You better be ready to be scooped up into a loving motherly hug.]

Kazuma! I'm so glad to see you!

[moezama]

[W-What? Well he's stopped in his tracks after spotting this thing, blocking his way, somewhat terrified.]

[teddybed]

"H-hah"? [gonna come out of this bookcase now and float over] I never heard of that one! Is it good?

[beauteggful]

[ O-oh his savior has arrived... if eggs could talk this one would be blabbering a million thank yous for saving it from certain doom beneath someone's foot! Sure, that's the way most eggs went, but not everyone wanted to be Humpty Dumpty. I mean, did he even get paid for that gig? NO!

The egg trembles in Kazuma's grasp and gazes soulfully up at him. Thank you, Kazuma, it whispers silently and tenderly against his fingers. Thank you for saving me. ]

[freakdeer]

[It's okay, Kazuma.

Just choose your books.

It will stand here and watch.]

[moezama]

[He stops, stuck where he stood. That voice...he didn't think he would hear it again. Slowly, he turns around, heart racing, wanting to see her, but afraid that he would find nothing. Not like this would be the first time he heard voices, but...she was there, smiling happily at him when he turned to look.

The next thing he knew, she was hugging him before he could say anything]

... [...This was real, wasn't it?] Miss...Litchi?
