She knew she wouldn't really have to beg her to participate, but the build up was part of the fun of an adventure. Sometimes you needed to nourish the anticipation, you know?

Lowering her center of gravity just a little so she could follow her cousin's indication more easily, her eyes brightened and smile widened. "Ding ding ding! We have uncovered our first clue!" she declared triumphantly as she proceeded to take long, exaggerated strides over towards the sign. "Dungs bombs. Hopefully you won't ever have one used on you ooooooooor accidentally have one go off in your hand...because it's pretty nasty. Okay, next clue is...to find something that sparkles and shines!"

Eulalia followed her cousin's long strides with several short, quick steps of her own. Being the youngest, she had quickly gotten used to walking quickly to keep up with longer legs. She wrinkled her nose at the idea of a dungbomb going off. It just sounded gross.

"Something that sparkles and shines?" The first year repeated. She looked around, then swung an arm around her cousin. "Isn't that just yoooou, Anna?" she said with all the sweetness an eleven-year-old could have. More seriously, she looked around the shop some more.

She gestured toward the windows. "Or is it the windows? I guess those are sparkling too."
