Puppets.

Pulled on string. Made to dance, sing, talk, love.

All we are.

All they'll ever be.




She got lost. The city swallowed her on the first time out. Slowly into the crowd...

This is goodbye. [Various means of "farewell" in Chinese]



[OOC: XD; She got lost in the city.]

[dictated, whee happy!]

I'm shiny.

I ate a strawberry. It was good.

Do ya wanna play? We can go outside an' look at the duckies in the pond!

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

Chomp.

She was eaten.

[canttakethe-sky.livejournal.com]

Eaten.

And where exactly did she get all eaten?

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

The city lights cooked her until she was done.

Then the shops ate her.

Bull in the China shop.

[canttakethe-sky.livejournal.com]

She's in the gorram city?? How the hell did she wind up there?! [scribbled out]

River, how about you stay in whatever shop you're standin' in right now until I get there. Clear?

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

The man yelled...

"Can't take that."

Doesn't understand.

[canttakethe-sky.livejournal.com]

What?!

Alright, till I get there, no touchin' anything either. You hear me?

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

No touching guns. Or knives. No fire.

Tried to find it, the late gift for the birth. She'll wait.

[canttakethe-sky.livejournal.com]

Right. Nice to see you revise that list.

...Good, you just wait, hear me?

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

No touching.

Sitting on the ground, you can't hear the stars.

[callmewash.livejournal.com]

Need an extra set of eyes, cap'n?

[canttakethe-sky.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't say no to them. Quicker we find her the less towns folk we'll have to explain to.

[sunshinymech.livejournal.com]

[dictated, happy happy kid!]

Heya Wash!

[sunshinymech.livejournal.com]

[dictated ... a kid's voice]

Heya River! Wanna play with me? Are ya in the big ol' castle?

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

Kaylee...

Lack of oxygen.

Small voice.

[sunshinymech.livejournal.com]

[dictated, slightly confused kid lol]

My voice isn't small, it's just right!

I'm a big girl. I'm five!

[blood-of-rome.livejournal.com]

....

Are you in need of assistance?

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

Older than the city. Than the world.

It's uncertain.

[blood-of-rome.livejournal.com]

...you have an interesting mind, young one.

It would be quite an easy task to locate you, should you require it.

[just-objects.livejournal.com]

It broke. The common theory.

Ask the captain. Follow orders. Wait here.

Can't speak unless spoken to, that's what's been said in the past.

...Someone goin' to go get your ass already, kid?
