[Goodness gracious, guys. Between River having a freakout, York being sad and drinking, a guy losing his horse, Frodo looking pretty out of shape, and then all the grown-up talk on that ladies entry (and Roy hurting himself on 'accident'; yeah, we'll get to that later, Roy) — Takeshi's starting to think the really pleasant dreams aren't gonna cancel out his concern for the rest of — well, everything. He hates seeing when this happens; definitely, definitely hates it. And while it's not the first time he's tried to smooth out an unpleasant time on the network, it's more him experimenting now, trying to fix things, make them better in a different way.

Surely, this won't backfire, because it's totally foolproof and he thought it up all by himself!!

Alright, not entirely by himself, but — it's a good plan, okay.]

Hey, I got a idea. On my — on a show I watched on my old TV, it used to say it makes people real happy when they get compliments. Compliments are good and make people feel good. So... I think we should try that, 'cus we can make it really nice for everyone! I know people are worried about stuff and the lockers were bad for stuff, but maybe this is a good way to make people feel better. Say nice things. If you wanna say with letters and make it so nobody knows it's you, it's okay, because I know people gets embarrassed easy.

So!! What you do... what you do is, you say a people's, a person's name; you say their name, and then say one nice thing about them. Something good about them! So you should say a few nice things about people you know here. And then someone can say something nice about you. Maybe it'll make everyone feel a little better. I can start.

Like. Like for Mr. York! I think he's really nice, and he always helps me, even though I pushed him once. He says I can play ball even though I'm small; he's really nice like that.

And Dean, Dean's really cool. He drives a really great car — I think it's great, 'cus he says so, and he named it Baby. I dunno if people name cars a lot, but he did, so that makes her even more special. And he knows how to kick ass, and that's really important.

And then, there's Thranduil. He makes sure I don't say things I shouldn't, sometimes. [Sirius and Nathan I'm lookin' at you.] He's really smart and tells me smart things. And he talks good. Sometimes I don't understand, but he's a great talker.

Rapunzel's a good person, too! Her hair is the prettiest, longest hair. And she paints so so so good. She painted me a panda on my wall.

I think that's good so far...

Um... if you don't wanna play that game... least lemme know you're okay. I haven't seen some friends and people in a long time. I wanna know you're okay.

[Because River's freak out got him pretty bad, too.]

I think people don't ask enough. 

If it's okay. If people's okay.

It's a 'portant thing to ask.

[So, so amused at the description of Thranduil.] The Elvenking does have a way with words.

You have done yourself well, child, with this.

[voice]

[throwsdown]

[He smiles wide, a gleam of pride in his eye.]

I like doing good.

Mr. Th'anduil — Mr. Thranduil must be a good king; he talks good enough. What's Elven? Is it 'cause of his ears?

[He thinks he's heard the term thrown around before (heck, Mr. T probably mentioned it and he forgot it, lost in the task of feeding Hoi Hoi his bamboo), but it's not like he bothered to retain much information about it; seemed pretty minor, to him.]

[voice]

[summerlord]

[His heart is that much lighter now, thanks Takeshi.] Ah, yes. The ears. [And a few other things, but let's try not to confuse the poor child.]

Do you speak with... [Pause; no, really, this is amusing him beyond all reason.] ...Mister Thranduil often?

[voice]

[throwsdown]

[It's always about the ears, man.]

I do! He talks to me lots, and he helps with Hoi Hoi when he needs bamboo; Hoi Hoi's my bear. And when I was sad once, he talked to me, too. He's good with stories.

[voice]

[summerlord]

That is good of him. Tell me of Hoi Hoi, if you please?

[voice]

[throwsdown]

Oh, Hoi Hoi's the best. He's a panda; didja' ever see pandas? He wears a suit like me and he really likes when he gets hugs. He hugs even more than I do...

[majestyofthethrone]

I think you're very loyal. You have a good heart, Takeshi.

[throwsdown]

[Guess who got shown how to convert text to speech? Guess who's totally proud of himself? This little asshole.]

Thank you! Do you want compliments, too?

I can think of a lotta' lot for you.

[majestyofthethrone]

I would love one, please.

[throwsdown]

Sera, your name is really really pretty! I think it sounds nice when I say it out loud; it's really nice when it's on the air. And you don't gotta talk, 'cause even though you don't talk, you say good things with words. On papers. And with buttons.

[majestyofthethrone]

Thank you. I'll do my best to keep saying good words.

[throwsdown]

I'm glad! Are you okay? Have you been good?

[Since he stalked you for a while, when Dean told him to.

Just gotta make sure you're still doin' okay, and all.]

[expect]

( rory is trying not to say the obvious here, which is holy crap there's a little kid onboard. this leaves him with no idea what to say instead, but after a few seconds he comes up with: )

That's really nice of you.

[throwsdown]

I like trying to be real nice; it's good to be nice.

[Manners are good. Netherlands says so.

And maybe he practiced them even when being almost murdered by monsters, whatever.]

I wanna say nice stuff about you, but I dunno you yet!

[expect]

Uhm, that's okay, you really don't have to. ( awkwardly… ) I'm Rory though.

[throwsdown]

Rory, I like your name.

[HA, he got a compliment in, he rules.]

Are you new? Super new? Your face; I don't remember yours.

[expect]

Thanks… Uhm, yeah, I just arrived here the other day… somehow.

[throwsdown]

Not somehow, silly. Through the pods!

[Guess who has no idea the little dude can do the whole text-to-speech thing now :c]

Takeshi is kind, funny and smart, and he works hard at his reading and writing.

[throwsdown]

[OH NO —

But it's okay because now he feels compelled to write back. So there's 1/2 of it.]

And Heather is good at seying copleminds.

[I PRACTICED YOUR NAME, LOOK AT THAT SHIT.

I AM A PRO AMONGST PROS.]

[sweetmotherofgod]

[Oh shit look at that HE CAN SPELL HER NAME

Just gonna tick it over to video, face all lit up with pride and delight. Kiddo, you are so cute it hurts.]

That was really good! You got all the little words right and the big ones are pretty close, too. And my name, which is the most important one. Obviously.

video; DID I PASS

[throwsdown]

I really wanted to know yours, so I practiced and practiced and practiced. I think I did pretty good!! I'll draw it for reals for you, too. so you can see how good the letters are. I did good!

video; WITH HONORS

[sweetmotherofgod]

You did so good. I would love for you to write it for me! Do you think maybe you could do a little picture, too? Then I could stick it on my door so people know which room is mine.
