Hey sorry if the last chapter was kinda cringey, I wrote it at one in the morning and I was tired. So yeah. The character's name is Natallia now by the way! I didn't want to use my real name so yeah. So I named her after a friend! Y'know, since I also named my town after another friend by combining her first and last name. I should stop before the creepy old men kidnap me and my friends. Well, enjoy!
Natallia didn't hear about the move.
It wasn't something Carmen liked to discuss, she just wanted to enjoy the time she had left in Lavryn. But, she decided to move while Natallia was missing, on one of her weird disappearing trips. Who knows what she did whenever she disappeared. So, by the time Natallia woke up the next morning, it was too late.
…
Bones saw Natallia walking around with a custom umbrella she designed after being hit by the inspiration train and watching one of her favorite shows at the same time and…
She was wearing a bunny hood.
Crap, no one told her Carmen was moving.
Natallia could still remember all the time she and Carmie spent together. Carmen who delivered her a birthday cake on her birthday day. Carmen who got her unintentionally saying, "For seriously!" or something like that once. NO SHE COULDN'T REMEMBER, CRAP SHE WAS ALREADY FORGETTING CARMEN! NOOOO!
Worse, she couldn't visit Carmen's new town because she didn't have a "Friend Code" or whatever the guys at the gate called it.
(A/N I couldn't figure out how to get a friend code for Animal Crossing City Folks Wii, so hah! USELESS INFORMATION THAT CAN MOVE THE PLOT!)
She was never going to see the bunny that lived in her town longer than she did again. It wasn't fair.. It was her fault.
If she had been here..
If she hadn't been…
…
(PLAYER POV)
I played Animal Crossing, slightly depressed over Carmen. "...I'ma write a fic about this… eventually… Not now though..."
If only I had played more often, maybe I could've prevented this.
Well, at least Her Average Animal Crossing Adventures would get another chapter.
…
(CHARACTER POV)
Bones looked up and saw Natallia at the cliff. He was about to have a heart attack before he realized she was just sitting there. Thank god. NOT jumping off. Doing nothing. Looking out into the endless sea. Getting hit by a Steven Universe inspiration train involving Lapis Lazuli and doing nothing about it.
Wait what was that last one?
"Huh.. can't remember." Bones thought. Well whatever! Now was not the time to try to try and remember what he was thinking about, he had to cheer up Natallia.
…
She had put away her umbrella a long time ago. She was soaked by the rain, but she didn't care. She didn't even get a chance to say goodbye. She wasn't AS sad about it anymore, but she was still sad. She needed time to think, at least. She stared out into the endless sea.
"I should watch some Steven Universe later…" She thought. She pushed that thought aside. There weren't even any new episodes. Although, she HAD been wanting to rewatch Bubble Buddies.. NO! She wanted to watch something with Lapis in it.
I mean, what's the point of looking out into the SEA and thinking about that without watching an episode with Lapis in it? She'd postpone watching Bubble Buddies again for now. Maybe she could read fanfiction when she got home.. Yeah! That sounded like a good idea! She'd accidentally stayed in her house for months accidentally doing that a few times! What could she say? She liked her some fanfiction.
"Listen, you have a plan for AFTER this, but for now you're thinking, kay? And not about your favorite TV shows. Like Steven Universe. And Miraculous Ladybug, and Fullmetal Alchemist, And Fairy Tail, and Naruto… NO! Not now Natallia… I should also look at some FMA memes after this too. But for now, stop letting your mind wander to freaking TV and anime…"
Natallia continued thinking about meaningful things. She couldn't help but wonder where the urge to curl under a blanket and watch TV and read fanfiction came from..
Oh wait, she was alone and cold in the rain. Huh.
After that she continued being sad.
…
She was still lost in thought when she felt the rain stop. But she didn't see the rain stop, it was still pouring. She glanced up to see someone holding an umbrella. Huh. She looked back to the ocean.
She felt something warm being wrapped around her. She glanced at the blanket, then at Bones. She smiled at him. Then looked back to the ocean. She watched in her peripheral vision as Bones laid a towel on the ground and sat on it, next to her. He got a fishing pole holder (A/N Anyone know what I'm talking about? I hope so..) and put the umbrella in it so his arm wouldn't get tired. This worked because the end of the umbrella was straight and not curved. Who decided to curve the end of umbrellas anyway?
The umbrella was massive and covered them both. That, and Bones was pretty close, but that was the last thing to think about. He had a small cooler next to him that he opened up and pulled a couple of sodas out of. He handed one to her; Dr. Pepper. Her favorite. He finally took another blanket and wrapped it around himself.
"You seem prepared." Natallia smirked. "Yeah, well, had a feeling we'd be up here a while, yip yip." Bones replied. She took a sip of her favorite soda.
"Dang, this is good. The only thing I've been having lately is those off brand Dr. Dynamites. I mean, they definitely work, but it just can't beat the original, y'know?" Natallia remarked. "Yeah." Bones smiled. She smiled back.
"Thanks." She grinned. "It's not a problem! You seemed sad." Bones replied. "Not really, I mean, it was hard at first but I accept it.. I'm just taking a bit to think." Natallia replied, staring back at the ocean.
Man, Bones was lucky to live right nearby the ocean.
Not that she disliked her house.
"Hmm." Bones hummed in response. They both stared out at the ocean, sometimes stealing glances at each other.
15 Minutes Later...
Suddenly,Natallia being as jacked up on soda as she was, and also because it would be hilarious spoke up.
"What did one ocean say to the other ocean? SEA you later! Then they WAVED! Glad you're not being too much of a.. BEACH over my puns! WOLOLOLOLOL!" Then Natallia proceeded to jump off the cliff..
She landed in a tree safely. She giggled maniacally waiting for Bones's reaction.
…
"What did one ocean say to the other ocean? SEA you later! Then they WAVED! Glad you're not being too much of a.. BEACH over my puns! WOLOLOLOLOL!" Bones watched as his best friend told horrible puns. He was about to burst out laughing before..
She jumped off the cliff.
"WHA-" He shot up. He looked and sighed in relief as he saw she landed safely in a cherry tree. "I don't know to laugh like an idiot or scold you for risking your safety and scaring me.. On second thought I'm doing the first one." He proceeded to laugh like an idiot for 5 minutes straight as Natallia tossed him a cherry and took the rest in the tree for herself and walked back up to him.
…
They stayed like that for the rest of the night, chatting, drinking soda, eating cherries, and being a lot less depressing than Natallia thought she was going to be when she went to the cliffs alone. They ended the night by falling asleep outside, leaned against one another's shoulders.
That's all for this chapter, and it was freaking super fun to write! I think I'm writing a lot more of this series, you? Eh, you probably skipped over this fanfiction after a glance at the original. Or maybe not. Maybe this will get popular. Who knows. Only time will tell. Also, in case anyone was wondering, yes, Natallia and Bones thought about Steven Universe at the exact same time.
*Disclaimer, I don't own Animal Crossing. And Miraculous Ladybug, and Fullmetal Alchemist, And Fairy Tail, and Naruto, and Steven Universe, And Dr. Pepper, And Dr. Dynamite, and anything else I made a reference to. Jeez, this chapter had a lot of references. Worth it though.
