050: Wee Rain: Voice and Video Post

*Singing in Lakota*

Hi, crows! Hi, trees! Hi, Grandfather Sun!

This is a very funny house! I like it very much!

Mommy? Are you here?



[ooc: Rain is 4, shortly before her mother died. She'll remember her friends here, but not seem to notice anything odd about being little.]

Hello again, Rain.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
A'course I 'member you! I love you!

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
A'course, silly!

I love you lots and lots and lots.

And even more! I love you all the way to the moon and back!

I love you too, Rain.

Do you want me to come and get you?

Not much later, Tony is landing just outside of her house. How old is Rain, maybe 4 years old?

"Rain?" he called out. "Are you there?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Rain is definitely four.

"IRON MAN!!!" And that would be a four year old girl flinging herself at him.

"Rain!" he shouted, picking her up as she ran at him and tossing her high into the air before catching her.

"It's very good to see you."

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
She giggled and hugged him hard. "It's good to see you too!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
"Let's see if you remember," he said, hugging her back carefully. "How old are you?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
"FOUR!" she shouted happily

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
"You are, good job!" he exclaimed, spinning her around. "Now where do you want to go today?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
"Flying, flying, flying!" she yelled. "And to see animals and birds!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Flying three times?" he said. "Not just once but three times? And what animals and birds should we see today?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
"Sssh!" Rain said, putting one little finger to her lips.

She whispered to him. "Look."

There was a small rabbit peering around the nearest tree.

"Rabbit!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Tony got quiet the moment she told him to and looked to where she was pointing. The suit had registered the heat signature of the rabbit but had dismissed it off hand as not important. It was amazing what Rain could sense.

"How did you know that was there?" he whispered.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
She giggled. "I don't know. I kind of heard it, I guess."

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
"You are a very special girl to be able to hear that," he told her as he lifted her up and set her on his shoulders.

"Are you ready to go flying, flying, flying?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's because I love them so much," she said seriously. "That's what mommy says."

"YES! I want to fly everywhere!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 07:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Tony slowly began to rise up off the ground as he held on tight to Rain.

"That makes sense. Do you think you could sense me when I came near because you love me so much?" he asked.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Rain thought about that seriously for a moment. "Yes," she said finally. "Prob'ly. 'Cause I love you even more lots and lots than them and I always know when you're coming."

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
"How do you know it's not because I love you lots and lots?" Tony asked, lifting her off of his shoulders to look her in the eyes as he moved over the City. "And how am I supposed to sneak up on you and tickle you if you always know when I'm coming?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh, you don't love me much as I love you!" she said with a giggle. "And no tickling!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
"How can you be sure?" he said, smiling as he tickled her side. "You're my best friend in the City, I love you a lot."

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
She giggled and squirmed, total confident in his ability to keep her safe. "You're my best friend too and I love you all the way to the MOON and back!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Tony laughed and held her close as he began to fly over the zoo, dipping a bit lower.

"Maybe some day we can fly all the way to the moon and back," he told her.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
She wriggled around to be able to look seriously at him through his faceplate. It seemed as if she could actually meet his eyes.

"That would be very nice," Rain told him seriously. "Maybe when I grow up and get big and marry you."

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-24 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Even as tiny as she was, he expression was the same as older Rain, one the seemed to looked right through him.

"When you grow up to be big I'm going to be all old and wrinkled," he told her.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-25 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
She beamed at him. "That's okay. I'll still love you. My grandma's all old and wrinkled and I love her just the same!"

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-25 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yes," he said with a laugh. "But you don't want to marry your grandmother, do you?"

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-26 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
"Silly!" Rain said with a giggle. "No! I want to marry a nice boy like you."

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-26 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Tony just laughed and kissed her on the cheek.

"Well I guess you'll have to marry me," he said. "Because no one else is like me."

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-26 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
"See!" she crowed. "I told you so!" Rain wrapped her arms around him tightly and kissed him soundly on the cheek.

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-26 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Tony just laughed and nodded. It was odd how similar young Rain was to her older self, just more willing to give in to her feelings.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-26 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Rain held onto him, snuggling in close as they flew. She always felt completely safe with him. "Do we get to see lots and lots of animals?" she asked.

[identity profile] morethanasuit.livejournal.com 2008-12-27 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
"Of course we are," he assured her. "We'll go over the zoo so you can wave to all the animals."

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-12-27 06:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yay!" she yelled cheerfully. "I get to see all of them!"
