[Had enough of connecting with your inner child already? Because these days, the energy from the children around is going to be shifting some things around. While there was a playground available by the old school building, it seems to be expanding, sneaking into all sorts of locations.

It won't be difficult to notice this, as one may walk outside to find their dome is now behind a giant inflatable slide. Or see that the pavillion by the park now hosts an evergrowing maze of monkey bars, nevermind the many ballpits and bounce houses across the islands. There are water guns and other similar toys by the fountain at the bazaar, more toys, childish books and coloring kits to be found in the underground common rooms, and even sweets and candy by the cafeteria... Well, you can't entirely blame Miracle Country for this one. Afterall, not only are there temporary children running around, the magic that's making them young is clearly lingering.

Perhaps someone has returned back to normal only to find their best friend or partner is now a kid. Or maybe they were still their usual age and are now joining the ranks of the kids around. Maybe nothing has changed, but you might appreciate the help with entertaining younger people when you're not used to them being around normally. In any case, the more the kids get to be themselves, the more their positive energy will be spent, and the sooner the magic can start to wear out.]

[[The deage event continues!]]

	[............] Why? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	servingdinner 2017-12-15 08:10 pm UTC (link)
	A surplus of resources for such a small population as ours, and no pressing need to make profit. [Yes, he fully expects a kid to understand that. Or, well... he would have before. Now, he clarifies (see what regularly talking to Lucifer does to you?):] That is, no one needs fight for food or other necessities here, or make much money to live comfortably.

[Sighs deeply-- Snow White would probably force her way back to this world to give Sebastian a very stern look if he'd let a child go hungry, though.]

Within reason, if you would.

[Granted, Sebastian's greatest source of income is currently banned from the bakery, so in that sense there should be plenty of cake to go around. Even so.]

Living off cakes alone, however, is not healthy. You will make yourself sick having all of that at once.

	I don't care. It's better than nothing at all. [Shoves a small cake into his mouth to prove it. Look at this disgusting, squirrel-cheeked child.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[So disgusting and squirrel-cheeked. Sebastian, all 6'1" of him, looks down on* this ill-mannered little brat for one long moment. Down and down and down. Tfw you miss - or whatever the demon-equivalent of "miss" is - your little brat of a young master. At least he has decorum. (* The preoposition "on" deliberately chosen instead of "at".)] (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, for Heaven's sake... [Sigh. Headpalm.] We will make a stop by the cafeteria. Do swallow that properly. [The question is: after feeding the brat, does Sebastian dump him on Eliot, who knows him, or on Chloe, the self-proclaimed Mom?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He's more than familiar with that sort of look, of someone looking down on him - and while he doesn't bristle the way his older self does, it's obvious that he's on edge, his shoulders tensing up.

He takes his time chewing, as loudly and obnoxiously as possible. Because he's not about to follow a direct order, clearly!!1]

[Asks, with his mouth full:] What cafeteria?

[That's all right, take your time. Sebastian will just remain here, hovering above Penny. Looking down on at him the entire time he takes chewing. Not even blinking once.

Look, if people look down on you, you usually only have yourself to blame. This is a fact of the world.]

The cafeteria in which I work.

[So: the same non-profit conditions apply, and the same food quality. But also the same store manager.]

	[....] Where is it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	servingdinner 2017-12-22 06:58 pm UTC (link)
	Roughly ten minutes' walk from here, in the north-east direction, but it is located in the tunnels, so we shall have to go underground. It is accessible via any of the domes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Sebastian tilts his head lightly, as if momentarily thrown off by such a question - but he isn't, really. Not considering the concerns usually raised by the children he deals with at home. And why wouldn't this be a very real concern for what's likely a street urchin?]

You cannot know such a thing, [he answers simply after that moment.]

I will not say it is an unwarranted question, but had I wanted you dead, I could easily have done it at any minute between the door closing and now, could I not?

	[Maybe he should be more terrified by that answer, but in reality it makes him feel a little more at ease. Hey, at least you're honest about it and not pretending to be a good person...] Yeah. You could have. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Well. Most adults could likely overpower and kill a child, should they truly set their mind to it. Why try to conceal that?]

I have nothing to gain from doing such a thing, nor have anyone else here, so you are quite safe.

[Unceremoniously, Sebastian pulls out a small, hand-drawn map from his inner breast pocket, which he unfolds and marks on two separate spots with a pen before holding the map out to Penny. Why does Sebastian carry hand-drawn maps in his inner breast pocket? Why, for situations like this, obviously.]

I have marked the cafeteria on the map. Should you prefer to make your way there on your own, at a later time without me, that is your decision. The second circle marks the domes on this island where you may sleep - they are free of charge for the time being, and you will not be turned away.

I will, however, lock down the bakery as I leave, so you will not be able stay behind.

	People ["humans..."] speak much. If it is excessive, look instead at their actions to discern their meaning. [Like the action of Sebastian walking towards the door.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
