[The comm clicks on to the sound of being dropped. It clatters across the floor and is accompanied by the delicate sound of a screaming five year old girl. There's a thud, the patter of some frantic, heavier than usual footwork and a panicked whine. Oh, and then a slamming door.]

Onai? Mokao!?

[She sounds like she's trying not to cry. There's a little bit of silence while Vie stares at her new surroundings and tries very hard not to have a panic attack.]

Tashi si mar?

[Finally Vie realizes that she dropped something on her mad escape from her room and dashes back to pick it up. She's got no idea what it is, or that it's broadcasting to the entire boat, but she dropped it so it must be hers? There's a fumble and a thud and the audio cuts out. ]

(ooc: Vie is 5 years old and on deck 12. She's a little distressed after finding a stranger in her room and remembers nothing of her time on the boat. I will probably get lazy with the Kirovian and summarise it, but for now WE SHALL SEE.

TRANSLATION: Onai = Mother, Mokao = Father, Tashi si mar? = WHERE ARE YOOOU?! D8)

[Oh jeez. Goten takes a few steps back and holds up his hands.]

It's okay; it's okay. I'll stay right here.

[As if to prove his point he sits down in the middle of the hallway, points to himself and then to the floor. Right here.]

N-nore!

[She stops as well and just stares at him. She's fine. Really. Vie is totally in control of this situation save for the fact that she has no idea what to do next.

Since they're on the junk deck, Vie grabs what looks to be a scarf of some kind and lays it on the floor in a line. She points to Goten, then to the line and shakes her head.]

Mar sunei duso.

_{((trans: Nore = good, Mar sunei duso = you stay there.))}

[Goten nods hurriedly and puts a hand over his heart.]

Right. I'll stay right here.

[...but crap, he needs to talk to her somehow. HOW DOES HE DO THIS. Maybe if he sends a message to her comm...? His is in his pocket, where he left it last night -when he was seven oh God none of this makes sense- and he fishes it out. He points to his comm and then to hers.]

[Oh whoa! The strange guy has a box thing as well! She doesn't know what it is, but it's common ground. Vie holds up her comm and nods. There's a moments pause while she thinks what to do next before she sits down, copying Goten's stance.]

Sol du suat?

_{((trans: what is this?))}

[Goten takes a second to examine it before typing out a text to send over to her. Hopefully she can read.

Can you read this?

...this thing is so cool AHHHHH he wants to take it home and put some pretty girl's phone number in it.]

[She watches him, clearly having no idea what he's doing but interested all the same. Like the little copycat she is, Vie looks to her comm to do the same and finds herself reading text.

Her mouth drops open and she looks around in amazement. How did it do that? Vie nods anyway and looks to Goten.]

Das etous si shran!

_{((trans: The words are here! :D))}

Type it. Like-

[He turns his hands around and mimes typing on his comm.]

-that, like that.

[She's watching you, Goten... and learning. Vie looks to her own comm and presses a key. When the letter appears, she laughs and grins at Goten. He's staying on his side of the line and he's not being scary, so that makes things okay, right?]

"jkiwedsjasdaokddddgasia"

[Vie is so proud of her achievement. Next time, she'll actually try to write something proper. For the moment, Goten gets keysmash.]

[Goten claps his hands and gives her a thumbs up, but he's hoping she can actually WRITE and isn't just...mashing the buttons. Oh geez if he cannot figure out how to communicate with her this isn't going to be good.]

[Approval! Yay! She tries again, brow furrowed in concentration. Vie's really trying to get this right. By accident, and perhaps lucky for Goten, Vie discovers the magic of the spacebar.]

"hellomynameischell e who arey ou"

[Vie looks to Goten expectantly. She also shuffles a fraction closer to the line.]

[Ffff okay. Goten takes a second to decipher that before sending a reply, grinning. This is kinda fun. And she's so cute, goodness.]

I'm Goten. I'm sorry if I scared you; I just didn't want you to get lost.

[Vie waits, a little impatiently for Goten to write his next massage. The fact that he's smiling and behaving himself is definitely a good thing. When he grins, she grins right back and wriggles on the spot. She takes a moment to read his message, sounding out the words and hoping she gets it right.]

Go...ten?

[Is that right? Vie taps into her comm again. She might know how to space her words but her grammar isn't that great.]

"hello goten do I know you where is mother"

[Oh eff he's going to have to make up lies. Dammit. He really, really sucks at that.

Goten tilts his head to the side thoughtfully -after flashing her another thumbs-up at the correct pronunciation of his name (though he's not even going to attempt hers, seriously)- before typing a response.]

You don't know me, but I'm kind of like a body guard. Your mom isn't here yet; you're on a boat so we can go find her. I'm supposed to look after you until we get there, that's why I was in your room.

[Oh God that sounds kind of creepy. He sends it; hopefully he's not coming off as some sick freak with the early signs of pedophelia or something.]

Edited 2010-09-06 03:05 (UTC)

[Dont worry Goten, Vie doesn't see anything creepy about that at all. Her Daddy had told her she would be safe as long as he was alive, so having someone to protect her is quickly accepted.

She does however, look a little worried and glance carefully back at the hall behind her. It's big and empty save for the piles of junk and suitcases. Vie swallows hard and whispers.]

Gashin.

[She lasts only a few seconds more before leaping to her feet and running to Goten. Once there she practically climbs onto his lap and leans back into him. She's a little freaked, but taps another message into the comm.]

"im sorry I ran away did the catmen take mother"

_{((trans: gashin = cat clan that hunt down and devour valei. Vie is PETRIFIED of them.))}

[Whoa hey. Child suddenly on his lap. Goten blinks down in surprise when she types something for him to read -catmen?- but it's pretty clear that she's terrified and he rests his chin atop her head, arms going around her as he makes his own response.]

I don't think so. I think you both just got lost; I didn't hear about any catmen taking anyone away.

[Hopefully this...whatever this is won't last too long so he won't have to lie to Vie for more than a week. Poor little thing.]

[She looks up at him as best she can with his chin on top of her head and then redirects her attention to the comm. It takes her a little bit to read the words but she manages enough to get the point. No Gashin. This is good news.]

PHEW.

[It's entirely exaggerated, but her relief is evident. Vie flops back against him, quite content to stay where she is until she's made to move. The girl is quiet for a few seconds and then, as though suddenly remembering something sits up to tap a message into her comm.]

"thank you goten i like you lots"

[OH GRACIOUS. She is so cute. Is this how Gohan felt looking after him? Maybe he can convince his mother to adopt or something...

But he'll give her a little hug and grin before ushering her off of his lap so they can stand. He types a message for her to read before holding out his hand.]

I don't know about you but all that running made me hungry. Want to go get some snacks?
