003 Falling Leaves

[kinship]

[Phone and Action (Albright Lane) Open to all]

[Cain is outside his house, raking the red and golden leaves that have fallen into a large pile, he has pulled the phone out of the door with him as far as the cable will stretch, holding rake in one hand and balancing the phone awkwardly in the other as he works.]

Falling leaves are so strange, it's sad in a way because it's like the trees are dying. But they're not really, they're just going into hibernation for the winter. And the leaves fill other purposes too; they make a mulch that feeds the ground when there's not much else there, they give materials for animals to make warm places to stay in the cold, and...

[There's a pause, as a grin breaks out over his face and he drops the rake on the lawn.]

...they're perfect for jumping in! YAHOOOOO!

[And suddenly there's scattered leaves all over the lawn again, as Cain rolls over laughing. This place and the situation may not be the ideal, but he was an optimist by nature and he had never had the chance to roll in leaves before, he's damned if he'll waste the opportunity now.]

I hope some of you will come to join me, or tell me about other fun things to do in this season! What are your favourite ways to pass the time? Now that I have the opportunity, I'd love to try them all out.

[Esther is laughing at this derpiness.] You're never going to clear the lawn that way.

[What in the...

That earns a small laugh from Queen, stopping her in her tracks.] Having fun there?

[ Mikiya can't help but chuckle maybe the slightest bit over the phone. ]

But it would be a little counterproductive to clean up all those leaves first just to scatter them again, right?

[a pair of hands are following that last leap into the leaves to tickle the everloving crap out of a tiny brother.]

OhohoHO! You've left yourself WIDE open for a tickle monster attack!!
