Shadow Cake? Was that what she called him?

"Yes, Shadow Cake is different today. But it is a good different. Shadow Cake is not a bad guy anymore. Shadow cake is friend." Well, he didn’t want to be. Hand still open for her to take, he waited patiently.

[kudamo-blog]

          "G... Good. Different." Then what choice did she have to take his hand, albeit much bigger, into her own?

          "...You're not like me. You're like my family. In the forest."

[rebelxdistortion-archive-blog]

"Yes, child. Home. Do you know where it is, so I may take you there?” he offered his hand.

[kudamo-blog]

          "...Nn—-Shadow Cake is different today..."

[skepticperceptions-blog]

     ”H-Hey! What do you think you’re doing? Let go of me!”                                                       Shakes his leg.

[kudamo-blog]

            Nope---still locked on to his leg, now both arms and legs wrapped around him and it's a hold for dear life when he starts rattling around like that.

"Miss? Take my hand, let me take you to your home."

          "...Ho----me."

[kudamo-blog]

          “Hnnn…”

Nails lacking the appropriate sharpness, as bitten down raw as they were, proved useless against the tinted citrus skin of the orange in her palms. Silly—silly, silly, silly, this just wouldn’t do. Maybe she isn’t pressing hard enough? Or maybe she ought to open it with her teeth—-

Yeah, that’s it, that’s it! And so dirty as it may seem, the little one had no problem at all in attempting to tear at the skin of the fruit with the sharpest of her teeth (hard as it was with not-quite-yet-adult teeth sure to fall out at any day).

          “Pfft—-tweh—-!!”

Well, now she tastes the dirt.

The shadow moved and moved and moved, each missing, as if she were a cat with a laser pointer…until suddenly, the next shadow was a hole to the distortion world.

If she fell in, perhaps he would just keep her there.

[kudamo-blog]

...—-!!

She'd all but fallen in at full force if not for Elgyem (closely watching at all times) had swiftly flown in to grab the back of her shirt — yet he was still so small, and it was all he could to to perhaps soften the landing as they floated down the opening. Where it went, neither of them could really tell.

[rebelxdistortion-archive-blog]

As the child pounced, the shadow moved to the other side of her.

[kudamo-blog]

              "—-!! Missed!"

Yet fret not—- another bounce, bounce, bounce of a pounce, hair hopping up and down along with her.

              "Cake!" Hop. "Cake!" Hop. "A rouuuuund cake!" Hop. "Who, is, the round, cake?"

[skepticperceptions-blog]

     ”…Weird.”

[kudamo-blog]

Sneeeeeaks up closer and——-

                                        Hugs his legs.

[kudamo-blog]

Touko has two shadows //mun sobs uncontrollably you are the only one I hesitated on

—-!!! There it is!

             "—Pounce!"

[skepticperceptions-blog]

     ”Why am I a round cake? I don’t understand.”

[kudamo-blog]

            "Lea—-vaaaaanny! Says so!"

[kudamo-blog]

—-?

[skepticperceptions-blog]

     "What are you talking about?      And why are you calling me a ‘round cake’ anyway?      Is that supposed to mean something?”

[kudamo-blog]

           "No, no! The round cake is the round cake! Sweet and grumpy round cake!"

[skepticperceptions-blog]

     ”Huh.”

[kudamo-blog]

           "The round cake is grum-py the round cake is confused!

            One and one and three's for fun, what does he have to lose?"

[skepticperceptions-blog]

     ”Did you just… call me a cake?”

[kudamo-blog]

            "-—? Round cake."
