"Hmm, hmm, let's see... one, two, three, four..."
Light cocked an eyebrow, amused at Sky's attempt to count each blade of grass as he was sprawled out lazily on the ground. The elder Hero sorted through the leafy green with his fingers, giggling all the way.
"Nine... ten..." he stopped, then rolled back onto his back and laughed. "Ha ha! Oops, I lost count..."
The younger Link knew he shouldn't laugh, but he grinned in spite of himself. "Sky, you're not going to be able to count every blade of grass. It's impossible."
"Nuh-uh! I bet I could!" He waved his hand dismissively in the general direction he thought Light was standing in. "You underestimate me, Duo."
"I'm Light."
Sky snorted. "Heheh, that's okay. You still have pink hair though."
Light snickered. Of course, he didn't have anything of the sort. "Okay, whatever you say, Sky." He turned his head when he heard approaching footsteps - it was Brown, and he was looking at the giggly Hero with a look of utter confusion. After a moment of staring, Brown whispered to Light.
"What happened to him?" he asked.
"Magic powder," said Light with a shrug. "I think he confused it with sugar and put it in his coffee."
"Oh." Brown looked back at Sky, who had reached into his pouch and had somehow fished out an empty bottle. He waved it around clumsily above him, trying to catch something that wasn't actually there.
"Hey, a fairy!" he continued trying to catch the "fairy", but eventually he frowned in frustration. "Why won't it go in the bottle? Come on, fairy, I need you to go in the bottle...!"
"Maybe you need to use your bug net first," suggested Brown.
Light shot him a glare. "Don't encourage him, Brown!"
"I'm just kidding," he replied. "How long is he gonna be like this, anyway?"
"Not too long; he'll be fine in a half-hour or so."
"And you know this how?"
Light sighed. "I'll tell you later."
Sky dropped his hand and looked around pitifully. "It flew away..." He pouted. "That's fine. I didn't like that fairy anyway."
And so, Light and Brown spent the remaining half-hour watching their senior to make sure he didn't do anything stupid. Actually, scratch that - they were mostly just watching him for their own amusement.
