[ Crouching down so that they are about the same height. ]

Can I tell you a secret?

[bondsofsuffering]

[Still confused, but nodding!]

[backstory]

The stamp game can make you big and small for a little bit. It's playing a magic trick on everyone. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not though, so you never know if you'll get to see what you look like when you're older or if you'll get tiny again.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Gaaaaaaasp!]

So, so, so-- it played a trick on you and made you smaller?

[backstory]

That's right! So some people you see right now might actually be kids but look like adults, and others might be vice versa. It's a little confusing.

[bondsofsuffering]

That's so weird...

So, I might turn big if we keep playing?

[backstory]

Everything is temporary.

[bondsofsuffering]

I wanna see what I look like when I'm bigger!

[backstory]

Should we find another location?

Perhaps Ueno Park?

[bondsofsuffering]

[Glancing at his cards.]

Umm... okay! We can go there.

[Though he's a little fixated on the locations still.]

[backstory]

Is there somewhere else you would like to go after?

[bondsofsuffering]

Ummm...

[Pointing at Olive Garden.]

I've never been here.

[backstory]

This will be my first time too, if that is what you would like.

We could do both.

[bondsofsuffering]

So you don't know what it is, either?

[Perking up a bit. Mysterious!]

[backstory]

I heard that recently there were a lot of people who wanted an olive garden.

I was... ill during the time period everyone worked hard to get it, however.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Wait, people wanted to go there?]

I wanna see it! [Oh wait-] Um, we can go after the park!

[backstory]

Are you sure?

[bondsofsuffering]

[Nodding.]

Yeah. You're s'posed to take turns!

[backstory]

It's a bit of a ride then, but let us depart. We can take the train.

[bondsofsuffering]

Okay!

[He's real good at trains, he's got this!! ...Unless Levi beats him to the proper directions.]

[backstory]

[ LEVI WILL LEAD. Because he knows the way for sure. ]

Here we are... not long at all, right?

[bondsofsuffering]

[Following then! And running a bit to keep up with longer leggy.]

Whoa... the park's so big!

[backstory]

[ Slowing down a little while making their way toward the stamp machine. ]

It's very large. Perhaps we can explore it, even more, some time. But we also have an olive garden to hit up after all.

[ He pauses. ]

. . . Though now we must complete another activity.

[bondsofsuffering]

Yeah... What do you wanna do?

[Taking! Turns!!]

[backstory]

Hm...

[ Thinking ]

Let's share something.

[ Reaching into his purse and... ah. Here. ]

A bandaid.
