I'm Ikko . . .

Why is it green?

[leapsandbound]

The wildlife here is weird that way. And kinda dangerous!

It's nice to meet you, Ikko?

[storming_in]

You too? Uh, where exactly is here?

[leapsandbound]

Thusia.

Can you ride those?

[storming_in]

Of course I can! You're looking at the one and only Storm Queen.

[leapsandbound]

Hehhhh ...? Storm Queen? It sounds so cool ...

[storming_in]

It's the coolest! A completely new road, created personally by me!

[leapsandbound]

Haha, I know that feeling ... it's exciting, isn't it?

[storming_in]

[brightly]

It's the best feeling.

[leapsandbound]

And when it works, your heart starts to pound, and your body ... it feels lighter than a feather, right? Like you could just fly off the earth completely and never come back down.

[storming_in]

And every day you make it just a little bit further. A little higher than before.

[leapsandbound]

Yeah. It really is a great feeling, isn't it.

[storming_in]

Yeah.

What road do you run?

[leapsandbound]

Mmmm ... I guess, in your day, you would have called me the "Thorn Queen"?

[storming_in]

. . . Are you a secret Noyamano they've been hiding from me?

[leapsandbound]

... no? I'm Akito and Agito's mom ...?

[storming_in]

[storming_in]

[giving her an intent look over]

You look like them . . . but you're too young to be the mom of that crocodile of a brother they've got!

[leapsandbound]

... brother ...? [blinks, then --]

[realization dawns, and she leans in closer, somewhere between actually whispering and only stage-whispering:] Ohhhh. Uhm. It's a long story, he's not actually their brother ...

[storming_in]

Eh—was he a kidnapper?! I wouldn't put it past that guy!

[leapsandbound]

Ah ... this is really awkward to explain ...

That's my boyfriend, and if he shows up here I'm going to kick his ass ...

[storming_in]

I'm really confused.

[leapsandbound]

[looks sheepish]

Ah ... I guess it's a little confusing ... he probably said that to protect them. If they didn't know, then they wouldn't be curious, and they wouldn't go looking, and if they didn't go looking, the Takeuchis would never find them ...

We're all dead here, so it doesn't matter, right? He's not their brother - he's their father.

[storming_in]

Why would—. . . What do you mean we're all dead?

[leapsandbound]

... I mean exactly what I said. We all died and now we're here, Ikko.
