*Youu frowns deeply at the shape, then froze as realization hit her. she whipped her head around to stare at Grace, eyebrows so high in her hairline they almost disappeared beneath her bangs*
Youu: *shocked* Anata wa EIRIAN to tomodachi ni narimashita?! *the girl looked back out the window for a second before translating what she said to English* You've made friends with an ALIEN?!
(HELLO THERE! I JUST GOT BACK TO MY HOME COUNTRY AND AM ALIVE AGAIN! Also, I watched the movie finally!)
*Youu giggled again, looking out the window again wistfully. Then, suddenly, she paused, her smile fading into a serious and contemplative expression*
Youu: *slowly* Nē, Sensei . . . *the teenager lifted her arm and pointed out the window at a large, looming shape* Any chance you know what that is?
*Youu giggled at his joke and nodded, her smile carrying just the slightest trace of melancholy in it. After a second, she looked down at her hair curiously*
Youu: *brightly* nē, nē, Sensei, is it true that your hair grows faster in space because of the lack of gravity?
