Intro ☆ video

[cutehomunculus]

[The feed clicks on to a little girl with blonde hair and ribbons... holding a hammer? Not even a beat passes before the hammer is brought down on the bracelet. The girl frowns.]

It doesn't break. Dumb bracelet.

[She stares at it a moment longer before smacking it with the hammer several more times. Finally seemingly giving up with a huff, she tosses the hammer away.]

Send me back home already. I wanna be with Hibiki not whatever this place was called again. [Pause] Maybe if I get a blaster gun.

[Her eyes widen slightly as she looks at it closer.]

Is it doing something?

...wait, did you say Hibiki? Ten year old girl, blonde, green eyes? Teaches? Knows magic back home?

Second video.

[seventeenpills]

Makes a really good cup of tea? That Hibiki?

Re: Second video.

[cutehomunculus]

[... yup that's Hibiki.]

How do you know Hibiki?

Video; 1/4

[saving_sound]

[Oh wow that sure was someone hitting the bracelet with a hammer. Better let them know that's not a good idea.]

Oh! I don't think you should-

[saving_sound]

[Wait. Was that...]

Video; 3/4

[saving_sound]

[...It couldn't be. Could it?]

[saving_sound]

[Who are you kidding Hibiki she just tried smashing the bracelet with a hammer who else could it possibly be]

Video; DONE

[saving_sound]

Sh-Shi-chan?!

[cutehomunculus]

Hibiki, there you are..

....

...where are you?

[saving_sound]

[There really is no denying it. It truly is the little homunculus Hibiki knows and loves. She's already tearing up a bit at the thought of it, as much as she tries to hold them back. Shi-chan is here and safe...!]

I'm in the Sigyn house right now. Ah... But you might not be in the same one. Was there a maid who told you which house you are in, Shi-chan? If you know which one it is, I can come find you right away!

[cutehomunculus]

[Which house that she's in... uhh... what did the lady say again.]

I'm in Thor's house. Can you bring me something to eat too? I'm hungry.

> [Action]

[saving_sound]

Y-yes! Of course! I'll be there soon, so just wait there for me, okay?

[True to her word, she scrambles over to the kitchen just long enough to grab a mildly sweet pastry she'd gotten earlier that morning before rushing off to the Thor district. By the time she makes it to the welcome house, she's out of breath, but that's okay because this means she gets to see Shi-chan sooner!]

Sh-Shi-chan...?

[action]

[cutehomunculus]

[Shi-chan waits as patiently as she can, which isn't very patiently. It's a good thing that Hibiki hurries, by the time that she's made it to the room Shiraasan had already gotten the hammer back in her hand. However, at the sight of Hibiki she goes over to her side.]

Geez, did you run all the way over here? You're all out of breath.

[action]

[saving_sound]

[Normally she would have an answer, but this time she's too busy giving Shi-chan a big hug. All the tears she's been holding back until now come spilling out in her happiness at being with the little homunculus once more.]

Shi-chan, it's... it's been so long. I'm so, so glad you're okay!

[Try to forgive her for that runny nose. It's an emotional moment for her, okay?]

[action]

[cutehomunculus]

[Puzzlement appears on her face when Hibiki hugs her. Geez, it hasn't been that long. At least not for her. Frowning, she pouts slightly.]

Hibiki, it hasn't been that long. Your nose is all gross, ew.

[action]

[saving_sound]

[She accepts that, having heard from Hisao that time doesn't pass at home. But that doesn't stop her from continuing to hold onto Shi-chan with one arm, moving her free hand to quickly wipe away the tears and snot as best as she can.]

M-Mm. I probably saw you very recently. But for me, it's been about four months.

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

Hibiki...? Do you know Hibiki-san? [ Then again, there could be... some other girls with that name. It's best to specify. ]

The one I know is a ten year old girl. If you're her friend, I could direct you to her.

[action]

[cutehomunculus]

[Four months..? That was a pretty long time. While she doesn't offer a smile, she puffs herself out a bit.]

Well, I'm here to protect you now.

[Audio]

[cutehomunculus]

Yeah, that's Hibiki. [a beat] Except I'm not her friend, she's my mom. [in a term anyways.]

[action]

[saving_sound]

Ahaha... Right, right.

[Have some affectionate headpats, Shi-chan. But it's then that a thought occurs to her.]

Er... Come to think of it... Shi-chan, I don't think your powers will work here.

[burntviolet]

[ ... Ah...

Mo... Mother...? Wh... at... ]

[Audio]

[burntviolet]

Uh...

...

[ Uhhhhh... ]

She's your natural mother...? [ Please tell her she isn't. ]

[video]

[rakia]

I believe you've made it work. [ Congratulations! The hammer does nothing!

That's sort of useful information? ]

[action]

[cutehomunculus]

I noticed that when I tried to smash the bracelet. I couldn't make a gun.

[Audio]

[cutehomunculus]

I guess. She made me herself anyways.
