 Fluttery Pegasi
The gentle voice on top of being asked what she wanted and needed did it. Adults never, ever, ever asked her what she wanted or needed. They just told her stuff like Knock it off or stop acting like a toddler. Haddie looked up at the Knight and wiped her eyes dry with her hand. What did she want and need? "Ummm." She touched her chin with her finger, which then started to slide up and to the side to her cheek. It smooshed her lips as it did.
"A pony." That was what she needed. A pony. And she spoke it with absolute assurance and hope. An exaggerated nod of the head punctuated her request.
All that he had said before was catching up to her now. About him knowing martial arts, which had to make him the best Knight EVER!! Like seriously, the BEST! And about it being Itchy-hara and the person's name. Poor woman. And that huge word that Haddie didn't know and didn't think she could pronounce. But she could get Haddie clothes, so that was something. All of it filtered into her awareness.
"So you're like a Ninja Knight!?" Haddie excitedly karate chopped the air as she asked it. This was the best! Her knight was also a ninja! And she wasn't even gonna try to pronounce that trans...transfibber...whatever it was. Nosiree Bob. "Can we go get regular clothes from Itchy-hara?" What a weird name! "But after we get my pony." Definitely after the pony. Definitely. She nodded to herself in confirmation.
