Do you know what is awesome?

BUBBLES is awesome.

No, really. See, someone looted (Dinah and Zinda) a factory's worth of liquid soap and sent vast amounts to the farm. Someone else (Steph) knew where to get glycerol and what happens when you add water, liquid siap and glyercol together. And someone else (Sokka) fashioned a bunch of wands of various sizes.

Although, actually, the tennis racket is Loo's favourite.

Mel, Loo and Hana are all out on the grass between bunker and farmhouse with a huge bucket of bubble mix, making a moderate mess.

Bubbles are awesome. Join them.

"Oh. Um." Ichigo looks at them, still playing, and is rather shocked by the answer. People here keep doing that. Nobody in Metropolis was jumping at a chance to lend a helping hand (well, one person), and he's still surprised by how welcoming the people on the farm have been.

"Maybe I will," he says, looking thoroughly embarrassed. He doesn't want to learn English from children's books while sitting amongst children, but if he does want to learn, what choice does he have? "That'd be nice, actually. Least I wouldn't have to worry about falling behind."

That was a joke. He is now entertaining worried thoughts about being out-educated by small children.

"You've never seen the speed kids learn, have you?" Mel says, clearly amused.

"'Sepcially, my kids." 'Cause they're a pair of geniuses. Clearly. Thinks their Mom.

"Well maybe I would have to worry," Ichigo says, and he can't help but smile a bit. Kindness will do that to a kid. "But I'll do my best to keep up, if you'd really let me give it a shot. If I can understand you and have a book of English in front of me, I can't see a reason I wouldn't be able to try."

Besides, it might be good for him to have some kind of consistent human contact. His fear of hurting people has had the unwanted side effect of making him a very lonely young man, and even the company of two children and their mother would be great right about now.

"Course I'll give you a shot," Mel says. "Give us a reason to really go for it, too. I've kinda been letting them do what they want. Time we tried getting some schooling."
