_{[ A At seven, Taiwan ever so slowly rolls out of bed and onto the floor. It's a Saturday. Who wants to get up on a Saturday? She sits up. Her eyes are barely open as she stifles a yawn and rubs her eyes. Time to start her daily routine. Opening her windows, she stretches her arms and shouts out: ]}

Good morniiiiiiiing!

<sub>[ Oh, hey, this isn't her island. Someone should tell her that. ]

[ B Phone call, sometime around ten. ]</sub>

Hey, mister police officer? Hello? Um, there's a creepy man in this house, and I don't know where I am, and some pervert made me wear these tacky clothes, and they took my flower... _{[ She means the flower in her hair what are you thinking gosh ]} It's really bad, you know! I mean, if I wanted to look retro, I would've at least tried harder!

<sub>[ C Later in the afternoon, she decides to ride around town and no, that's not her bike - she nabbed it from some drone kid. Maybe this will clear her mind a little. Watch out, though - she might be going a little too fast. ]

edit; Thank you so much for the paid account and icons, anon! ♥♥♥ You can have my hearts. All of them.</sub>

[naicha]

No! And Jay Chou's not small!

_{[ She tucks her hair behind her ear and starts biting a nail. ]} First my flower, now this...

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

A-ah. They take everything from you, em.

[naicha]

_{[ stops doing the where's my ipod dance ] ... Everything? [ everything everything ever ever? ]}

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Yes, everything. Your possessions and clothes, and, ah... your immortality.

[naicha]

They can do that? _{[ She isn't ready to believe that part just yet. ]}

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Supposedly. [read: definitely. she didn't believe it either at first.]

[naicha]

_{[ Vietnam's an old lady, but she sounds slightly more convincing this time around. Still skeptical, but she doesn't want to take any chances. ]} ... It's going to be a lot harder to protect things now, huh?

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Well. [tries to sound cheerful] I don't think any of your citizens are here, so... [maybe that's not a cheerful thing]

[naicha]

_{[ Oh, so lonely... She tries to snap out of it, though! ]} It's better that way! That means they're safe back home-- _{[ only she remembers it's not so safe back home, sob. She keeps quiet. ]}

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

[has no idea about your crazy future world] And there's just one of mine... It's relieving, in a way, just to have one to look after. [though she misses the rest, of course]

[naicha]

That's true. Taking care of them is a big responsibility! <sub>[ nod nod eats a macaron

oh, but now she's curious. ]</sub> What kind of citizen does jiejie have here?

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Oh, [she takes a green macaron and nibbles on it, turns her eyes to the ceiling, and muses aloud] Well, he's over a hundred years old, I think, but he looks about 12. He is very violent and is always in a bad mood. Ah, and his hair goes like this- [she lifts a hand and makes a little sweeping motion atop her head to indicate a flyaway hair curl- a lot like nantucket, really] -and he's very fond of sweets. If he's in a bad mood, it's good to give him candy... Oh, and he is a sort of vampire who can turn into an enormous demonic creature. [all of this is said in the most nonchalant voice ever...]

_{[ She's nodding and making noises to indicate she's listening after every sentence. But right after all of that registers- ]}

[naicha]

Eh!? _{[ SPILLS HER COFFEE A LITTLE... A LOT. oh well she never liked it anyway. ]}

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Ah! Please be careful! [reaching for the paper towels ahh Taiwan don't be so clumsy...]

[naicha]

Ha... ha... jiejie's citizen's a vampire. So teacher's stories were true... _{[ or maybe vietnam's just being crazy again, yeah ]}

What has China been saying about my citizens? [eye twitch hnghh THAT DAMN NORTHERN BASTARD...]

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

--please do not be mistaken. He is the first of his kind I have met.

[naicha]

Well, if he's cute, I guess it's okay. Everyone's into vampires nowadays, you know! It might improve jiejie's tourism.

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

What does a vampire have to do with my tourism?

[naicha]

They'll want to see him more, so... _{[ oh, idea ]}

Can I have him?

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Why would I give him to you!

[naicha]

I thought you didn't want him...

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

Of course I do. I'm fond of him. Even if I weren't, he'd still be one of mine.

[naicha]

_{[ Well, it was only a joke, but she won't push it any further. ]}

It must be really nice! Having a connection to home. I mean, if you really can't leave this place, then... you've been holding on to him for a while now, haven't you?
