Planetes
1.o. April Fool!

April Fools day, not the day Elliot really likes. But somehow this manifestation of Neptune wants to release fatigue from everything on that day.

Stabbing someone, huh? Is Elliot up to it? Hm, let's see what he needs.

Being a girl or a child? Any one doesn't matter to him, because Elliot can manipulate his form. After all the structure of his body can he mess with as he pleases. Forget the instability of his figure due to the curse of the White Death, Elliot really wanted to have some fun this time.

Therefore, Elliot changed his figure into a beautiful woman by dressing differently from his male figure.

Elliot turned in front of the mirror and stared at himself for a moment. Make sure that he has done everything right.

"Perfect." Drought away from the fissure. "Well, let's start."

With full confidence, Elliot—ralat, Elliana if in her female figure, walked to the middle of the city. Find anyone who can be targeted.

Netra Elliana also caught a long orange-haired figure in the park. Who is this girl? The girl's intense gaze from where she stood. His aura is similar to his older brother, Saturn. Don't-don't—

Elliana tiptoed close to the figure and—GANGKAT!

In the place of the girl, a moon figure from Saturn named Helene— or in her human form named Theodosia, was relaxing to enjoy her cold drink. Then suddenly he fell—

Immediately wake up and stare at his spilled drink, ❝Ah—KAU THIS WHY, HUH?!❞ Theodosia did not recognize who was ahead. Familiar but not familiar.

"Ah, sorry. My legs are slippery," said the embodiment of Neptune while laughing satisfied to see the results of ignorance.

There's no ban on nieces and nephews, is there? That's why Elliana did it.

Hearing that laughter was an imaginary crossroad appeared on the forehead of the princess of Saturn. ❝You have to pay for my drink!❞ then Theodosia shriveled back quickly.

Who is this auntie?! It's not ten in the morning yet and someone is looking for trouble. 💢

"Oops!" this leg of Neptune's embodiment is stranded and almost makes it fall.

Elliana then rests with one hand to avoid falling and falling into the salto.

"Lhoo? Your drink, huh? It was there, "pointing it to a bench not far from where it is now. The same drink that belonged to Theodosia which of course he had prepared earlier. "You want to go on?"

Forget drinks. Now Theodosia was upset. Already shrunk do not fall also this mistress. Maybe saltonya too.

❝Want to warm up briefly, aunty?❞

Theodosia ran then jumped, spun in the air, and aimed her kick at Elliana.

It turned out that this nephew of his was the same as his nephew.

"Yare, yare, Brother Saturn. Turns out your kids wiggle short, too, huh?" muttered Elliana while shaking her head.

"Well, come here, son. Show me your abilities."

Elliot in the figure of Elliana held the kick with two hands. He moved from his place. Elliana flicked her hand and licked it short.

"Lumayan as well." a smile spread across this light blue wave-haired figure.

Returning the distance, Theodosia prepared a fist. Not intending to hit, just wanting to touch it to declare victory.

"Ah," Elliana forgets that her older sister's children have the ability to manipulate something related to Saturn's nature.

Of course, Elliana would not be able to avoid the grasp of her nephew. It was with him who could not move his legs.

"I admit her children Saturn's sister is great," Elliana still boasted a smile as warm as the sun.

Then change his figure to the beginning. Back to Elliot.

"Good job on April Fool's Day, son." Elliot put out a smile on the peroman.

As soon as the figure of the woman turned into another figure she immediately canceled her ability. Then take one step back. This man knows dad.

❝A-april mop?❞ Theodosia had heard. It was one of those days when earthlings were free to throw jokes. So it means—

❝This, this is just a joke? And who are you?❞ I'm sorry, Theodosia doesn't really know how her father's other brothers form.

"Pfft—" a funny reaction from this girl makes the bentala unable to hold a laugh. "Gosh, sorry. Excuse me. But you're funny, son."

After a few minutes, his laughter eased and said.

"Eighth planet of the solar system, as well as the ruler of the ocean. Neptune."

Elliot patted his clothes and said.

"I'm sorry for my excessive jokes, huh? I hope we can meet again." Elliot blinked his eyes again.

The little moon, Helene—or in her human name Theodosia, covered her face after hearing and knowing who had been Theodosia hammers—though not hit. Only once did he see the human form of the blue planet. Gosh darn. May not be told to the father. Remembering his father is very firm in every way.

❝Pa-uncle Neptune?❞ his tone is doubtful when calling, ❝No problem. I'm the one who apologized for not recognizing you! Ah, by the way my name is Helene.❞ just first met and Theodosia has made a bad impression. Ugh—

It's uncle's fault, right. Why appear in a form that he does not recognize— in the actual form even Theodosia will not recognize at first. ❝No problem! Nice to meet Uncle Neptune here!❞ yells. The next time they met again, he would not fail to recognize. It won't.

But Theodosia was still worried, what if her uncle complained to his father? Ah, but you're always busy, so there's no way. Shrugging his shoulders for a moment, Theodosia left the garden.

During this day, Elliot learned a lot about new things. About the unique earthling tradition and attached to him.

"It turns out, however far I try to stay away still can't, huh?"

Baffled. Maybe that's more accurate. But he learned a lot. That means Elliot can't carelessly trust someone to act.

Well, it's time to go back home and finish the essay. Despoina and Medeia must have been waiting for him at home.

"This time I'll cook what for them, huh?" muttered Elliot while stepping his feet towards the supermarket.

His feelings are lighter now. He will think about what he should do next. Especially regarding the curse that he received a while ago. The curse that caused him to alternately experience misfortune.
