[Break is sitting on his windowsill, blissfully unaware of the fact that the PCD has turned on where it's sitting on his desk. He reaches one of his legs out, barefoot, stretching so it makes it past the shelter of the awning and out into the raindrops falling outside.
Amusing himself like this for a few seconds longer, he keeps a tight hold on the frame for balance.
The whirr of the PCD eventually alters him to the fact that it's running. He glances over his shoulder sharply.]

Someone looks like they need a hug!
I suppose so, Emily. But I think we'd better ask him, first, don't you? And maybe answer his questions?
Hugs first, questions later!

Date: 2010-11-07 06:28 am (UTC)Before you got here, little bit, Yuca used to keep a greenhouse. It had all the most beautiful plants in the world inside it. He was all alone and sad, so he poured all his love and devotion into those flowers.
Dora Folk smashed into it and broke it, uprooted the plants and tossed them asunder, just to hurt his heart.

In the original story, he was the oldest man ever to have lived. In your world, he's you- Yuca's oldest, best friend, who he would do anything for.

Date: 2010-11-07 07:07 am (UTC)[He tells him, quietly.]
That's why Yuca is so sad. He's older than many of the stars in the nighttime sky. He's scared to tell you the truth, in case you hate him for what happens between him and Methuselah. He's very, very alone, and Dora Folk wants to keep it that way.

You can choose to talk to Yuca about this if you'd like. It'll frighten him, but it might do him some good. Or you can carry on, knowing that he has lived for an eternity alone, but that you're the sun in his day, the moon in his night, and the stars in his sky.

I don't... I don't want to frighten Yuca.
