Backwater Nexus. Mall. Let's Rock and Ride!

[misslucysleeches]

Lucy approaches the mall with just a little trepidation, smoothing out her dress (bright green with yellow flowers on the skirt -- and it's just over knee length, so a certain little pitcher needn't worry if she's around tonight) and making sure her hair is pulled back neatly in its ponytail. Silver's mention of the Rock N Ride nights at the mall stuck with her even after her return to her own world. So, after a rather annoying day trying to make sure her passport was up-to-date, she's decided it's time to seek out some fun and see what else this Nexus has to offer. "Just hope they accept regular old American dollars," she mumbles, patting her purse by her side as she reaches the front entrance. (Nothing in her vast array of literature suggested they wouldn't, but discretion, valor, etc.)

Lucy's in one of the latter categories, since she doesn't really understand German. She liked the song, but it does leave the ears ringing afterward. She rubs one, then applauds along with Usagi. Something with that much power behind it definitely deserves some clapping. She does a small double-take when Raoul starts yelling, though. You just don't expect to hear something like that coming from a supposedly-human throat.

"Raoul, you're going to wreck your voice," says Alicia, laughing from where she's now standing and being hugged by her sister in the drindle and Destiny.

"Nah," retorts the Latino boy, also laughing.

"I can't believe you just said that to a fifty foot tall war machine." Susana shakes her head at him, half amused and a little alarmed.

"He deserves it for making up mush like that and singing it where people can hear it." Raoul laughs more. "Right, Usagi?"

Big brown eyes look up at him, and then the tiny girl nods and smiles before peeking at Lucy.

"Dare I ask what he said?" Lucy inquires with a little smile. "Or, uh, clicked, I suppose I should say."

She looks back down at the little girl and waves again. "Hi there. I'm Lucy."

"I said his mama didn' wear army boots." Raoul laughs much, but then pauses and gently sets Bunny down as she wriggles.

The tiny girl thanks him quietly, and then folds her little hands and bows to Lucy.

"This small one is grateful to make your acquaintance," she says softly, the old fashioned speech and manners appearing not at all out of place on the serious little child. Kriti and the others watch her with affection.

Lucy snorts, then shakes her head. People are the same all over.

Or, well, mostly. Lucy's never been addressed quite like that before, particularly not by a little kid. It does fit this particular kid, though Lucy's a little confused as to why Bunny's using the third person. It's not a big thing to worry about, though, so she just nods and returns the bow, as is polite. "Likewise."
