[Yeah, that's definitely not happening. But all things considered, '-chan' feels the most appropriate since Hiyori's so youthful looking. Natsuru's not Yukihina though, so she won't go around insisting she's her niece.]

Well, yeah...

[Obviously. Unless she went through the house and up the chimney she's gnawing on, but that still involves climbing.]

I mean, what are you doing here?

[Suddenly, she looks the tiniest bit panicked.]

Yukihina-san's not around, is he?

[bubblings]

[ Well, Hiyori sure will go around insisting that Yukihina is one of her many dads though. Even though he's not really, her parents are dead, and she doesn't miss them one bit. ]

It l0oked yummy, s0 she cam3 up here. & he's n0t here, sh3 thinks. Can'7 feel him n3arby.

[thirdbeauty]

[Well, that's a relief. Somehow she feels like this girl will be less of a nuisance than him.]

You're not going around eating everyone's houses, are you? If you'd just asked, I could have gotten some sweets from inside...

[Because she and Kyoko bake them like, all the time.]

[bubblings]

H0use is b3tter! It's a h0use! Duh!

[ She's definitely a different type of annoying than Yukihina. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[It's amazing how she manages to speak numbers like that. Shame Natsuru can't tell the difference. Holly Heights needs live subtitles.]

Are you sure it's a good idea, though? It might do something weird...

[Natsuru no, don't mom her. You're not ready to deal with this.]

[bubblings]

[ Hiyori is an amazing girl like that. Just wait until she says "lol" out loud. ]

Dun c@re, it'5 c@ndy!

[ She throws a gingerbread brick at her. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[Does she say "omg" too?

Natsuru reacts before she realizes it, moving to swat the gingerbread brick away. It just bounces ineffectually from where it makes contact because... it's gingerbread. What a waste of good edible masonry, falling to the ground like that.]

Ah... fine. Just... don't eat the whole house, okay?

[Like someone as tiny as Hiyori could do that.]

[bubblings]

[ Yes. ]

N0 pr0mises!

[ She giggles and bites into another brick, throwing a third one at Natsuru's head. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[This time, Natsuru reacts in time to catch the brick. ... It smells like normal gingerbread, mixed with the chocolate that's been raining on it. But she's not about to take a taste. Still not sure what'll happen once everything's back to normal.]

... You're sure you don't want to come in?

[If she's going to be here anyway, she'd rather have her where she can keep an eye on her instead of waiting for her to crash in from the roof after eating a hole in it.]

[bubblings]

Only if y0u've g0t a k1ddy p00l H1yori can f1ll with candy.

[ Or a really big bucket. That can fit a 14 year old. ]

[thirdbeauty]

I think we have something like that, yeah.

[It's either a really big bucket or a small portable tub. But if it's a way to get Hiyori off the roof...]

[bubblings]

G0od!

[ And she slides right off the roof, slick with chocolate to make it into a slide.

She lands on her feet and pats her skirt free of chocolate and crumbs. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[Goodness, she's a mess. Natsuru would offer to let her take a bath inside if she thought it would make a difference...]

Okay... just a sec.

[Does the lock on a door even work anymore in candy town? Either way, she's opening the door to go inside, letting Hiyori follow. And now she has to find that tub, which is probably made of something edible now...]

What are you even going to use it for?

[Because it's not obvious enough to her even though it'd be obvious to everyone else.]

[bubblings]

[ It might not work. And besides, what if someone ate the handle? Hiyori looks tempted. ]

T@ke a bath, duh!

[thirdbeauty]

[Sheesh, this girl might eat her out of house and home in an unusually literal way!]

Well... you can just use the bathtub for that.

[She's already brought out the smaller portable tub she was talking about, though.]

[bubblings]

N0t th@t kinda ba7h, stup1d!

[ She grabs the tub and drags it right back outside. ]

[thirdbeauty]

[And where exactly did she learn to speak to her elders like that?! ... Oh yeah, Yukihina's daughter. That explains everything.

Actually, it's kind of funny imagining her being that rude to Yukihina. Whether she actually is or not.]

Wh-?! What do you mean?

[Why is she dragging the tub outside?!]

[bubblings]

[ For a while, Hiyori doesn't answer, instead just focusing on getting the tub outside. Then, when it's in the rain, she starts to fill it up with all the candy and chocolate bars on the ground. ]

Hiy0ri's always w@nted t0 bathe in candy!

[thirdbeauty]

I... see...

[Child, that is the opposite of bathing. Plus, it's not sanitary to just pick stuff up off the ground! (Or is it? This is candy land Holly Heights...)]

[bubblings]

[ Hiyori just ignores her in favour of filling the tub, and then jumps right in. ]

W0ohoo!

[thirdbeauty]

So... now that you have candy to bathe in, do you have to be outside?

[Because this is embarrassing and she's not sure she should leave this girl unsupervised.]

[bubblings]

Sh3'll g0 inside if U pull h3r there!

[thirdbeauty]

[Is that a challenge? Does she not think Natsuru can do it? Well... she doesn't look very athletic, so that wouldn't be a surprise if it is the case.

Natsuru just shrugs and plays along. She doesn't pull her inside, though. First she goes inside for a second to cover up and protect herself from the rain more. Then, when she comes back out, she outright picks up the tub and carries it into the house, candy and Hiyori and all.]

There. How's that?

[bubblings]

[ Honestly, Hiyori didn't expect that. But when she's being lifted, she shrieks with laughter. ]

H3ll yeah!

[thirdbeauty]

[That actually makes Natsuru smile a bit. Is this a bonding moment? Hiyori's not as creepy as she would have expected out of Yukihina's kid.

Also the house itself is edible too, so she has no reason to worry about making a mess. Might as well set the tub down right in the living room.]

Your, um... dad's not gonna come looking for you, is he? Should I let him know you're here?
