[ tthrowing the ball towards her, then?? not at her face. lower than that. ]

[redsea]

[ she tries to hit it with her chest like a cool guy

it hits her boob ]

ERIC! [ she covers her chest and kicks some snow at him. ...even though she's standing a little too far for any snow to hit. ]

[capitulated]

[ oops. ]

Sorry.

[redsea]

[ picks up the ball and hands it to him again. someone's huffy about something that was her own fault!! ]

[capitulated]

[ throwing it lower this time??

low enough to not hit her chest and her face okay look at this effort. ]

[redsea]

[ hits it with her knee, then juggles it...

this goes on for a while









she's the only one playing this game at this point ]

[capitulated]

[ does this mean he can go back inside.


here he'll just. stand here and stare. ]

[redsea]

[ look, look, she's passing it to him now!

or more like she accidentally hits it too far for her to reach and hit it again ]

[capitulated]

[ and eric moves--forward, bounces the ball off of his chest and back towards her.

look, he's participating. ]

[redsea]

[ Kougyoku beams when the ball is headed towards her and kicks it again, higher. Dangerously higher.

She's just happy that Eric is playing with her. ]

[capitulated]

[ and eric

waits

still waiting

eyes on the ball

waiiitiing. . .




when's it coming down. ]

[redsea]

[ never because it's stuck on the roof

just... looks up at wherever the ball is

she's sad ]

... Do you know how we can get it back down?

[capitulated]

[











oops.

loooking up. ] I'll get it. [ by that he means climb up onto the roof and fetch the ball of course. moving to. do that? ]

[redsea]

[ woah! eric's stretching his legs, it's a miracle!!! ]

Can you do it? [ She's just worried. ]

[capitulated]

[ he spends a moment just. staring at the house. like how is he going to climb up onto the roof there's no ladder he can't really jump that high and.

okay, there's a pile of snow and a tree sticking out nearby. maybe, just maybe he can use this.

going to try and climb that tree, without responding. he doesn't know yet. ]

[redsea]

[ she watches him for a few minutes.

then sits down. ]

What are you doing? [ you know, just curious. ]

[capitulated]

Getting it.

[ look he is up in this tree and so close to that roof he's going to get this ball if it's



well it shouldn't be the last thing he does why is he in a fucking tree. ]

[redsea]

[ because if he doesn't get it, the princess will be sad.

oh, but he is so, so close. ]

Can you reach it? Don't fall...

[capitulated]

[ but the branch closest to the roof is so thin, it'd probably break under his weight.

he'll stare at it for a moment instead. just. stare. and consider it carefully. he's not gonna fall. ]

[redsea]

[ She's staring at it too, and... yeah, Eric can't go there. Maybe they can ask Mikoto to get it later.

In the meantime, she'll be on the ground, worrying. ]

[capitulated]

[






casually sitting down on this nice, thick branch. you know, the one he knows isn't going to break under his weight.

wow this is comfortable. ]

[redsea]

[ Watching him for another five minutes. ]

... You can come down, if you'd like to.

[capitulated]

[ i'm not stuck it's not like the very few branches down towards the bottom of the tree are actually that intimidating he could just jump right he got up here he can get down. ]

. . . I don't want to. [ yes he does. ]

[redsea]

[ But the ground is more comfortable!? ]

...Are you stuck?

[capitulated]

I'm not stuck.
