Hey, my train trekkers, my main men, my wonderful women, my koo-koo kids, and everyone and everything else in-between! This is Della Duck, reporting to you live from her cabin with a chance to feel super good about yourself! First, a bit of background info. In my world, there's an organization called - drumroll, please - theeeee...
[ She holds up a slightly tattered and worn-out book with several post-it notes on almost every page. ]
Junior Woodchucks! The BEST group ever for kids to learn all the skills under the sun and prepare them for all of life's challenges and beyond! When you accomplished something major, you earned a badge! And, no big surprise, I earned a lot of them when I was that age. And I feel like you all have accomplished SO MUCH! Whether here on the train, back home, or in other worlds we've been to, you've all got a lot to be proud of!
With that in mind, I decided to make you guys the Junior Woodchuck Badges you all deserved! I'll be going all around the train and handing them out! Even if you're a total stranger, I want to hear the things you're proud of! Because there are things we should all feel great about ourselves!
For example!
[ She fishes out some of the badges she's already made, and shows them one by one. ]
The first time you made a campfire! Or, making a new dish that's actually edible! Or putting out someone else's campfire that went wildly out of control! Master of treating injuries, making twenty friends, craftsman extraordinaire... And if what you're proud of doesn't exist in the guidebook, then phooey, I'll make it up myself! BECAUSE YOU ALL NEED TO LOVE YOURSELVES A LOT MORE!
... A-hem. See you around, guys!
[ if you'd like, feel free to go right to Action to meet her all over the train! ]

Best Big Bro Badge, for one Seto Kaiba!
no subject
Seto reaches up to touch his locket instinctively, as he does whenever he's reminded of Mokuba. His feelings of devotion had burned brightly, and still did now...
But although Mokuba would always be closest to his heart, he wasn't the only one Seto loved as family anymore. He'd loved Daia and Nita, and he still had his Yugi, Xander, Eva, Curufin, Siebren, Yuume, Jou...
And of course, the proud mama in front of him. He crouched in front of her, a tiny smile gracing his face. ]
The best?
no subject
[ She moves to put the small badge in his hand - the picture in is pretty simple, a light blue upper half of a male silhouette inside of a bigger, darker blue silhouette. ]
no subject
Seto traces the edge of the badge reverently, and then carefully pins it to the strap of his laptop bag. Closest thing he has to a sash at the moment. Another moment later, he opens his arms for a hug. ]
And I have the people who've guided me to thank for that, at least partially. Where's your best mom badge?
no subject
[ After the hell she put her family through, she doesn't think she ever deserves forgiveness for that.
But she will take the hug. She'll tales take the hugs. ]
I think I'll settle for 'pretty good mom' today.
no subject
Fair enough. But can you meet me again in an hour? There's something I want to show you.
no subject
Sure I can, Seto... though I'll be dying of curiosity for that one long hour!

[ He lets go with a smile and bustles off---he has some work to do. Digging for supplies, raiding the art stockpile...
And as promised, he returns in an hour with his hands folded in front of him, as if cupping something. ]
Close your eyes and hold out your hands.
[ And if she does, he'll deposit a simple blue origami box there. Something small is rattling inside it---as she might guess, a badge, with two smiling cartoon brains painted on it. Yes, it pained him to paint that. ]
I know you know what this one's for.
no subject
... Brain Buddies. I think even the Junior Woodchucks would never have come up with that one.
... Thank you, Seto.
no subject
It's also from a nine year old to his best ride buddy. Thanks for looking out for me back there.
