Chapter 1

............

Is something wrong? You look so very deep in thought.

Apache and the others have been working hard, so I want to reward them. I just can't think of a way to do it.

Why not simply ask them? You all do seem to get along rather well.

I did, but they said that just being by my side was enough.

I suspect that's actually true in their case. Well, why don't I try asking the other Fracciónes a few questions?

Oh, I don't think...

I'll do it as part of my stroll, think nothing of it. I don't know if I'll find out anything useful, so lower your expectations while you wait.

Hey. Hey...

............

I said, "HEY!"

What are you doing?

Stark won't get up! Come on and help me.

And disturb his peaceful slumber? He looks rather comfortable as he is. Why not leave him alone?

Anyway, I had something that I wanted to ask.

And I'll answer if you help me wake Stark up.

Hey, Stark! Come on, get up!

Tsk. What a racket. Is a little catnap too much to ask for around here?

So? What did you want to ask me?

What would Stark have to do to make you happy? Even just something he's done in the past would be fine.

Hmm. I suppose... I suppose if he just woke up and played with me, I'd be happy. If he's asleep, I'm on my own and bored.

Get someone else to play with you once in a while. I'm going to sleep.

No! No more sleep! Argh! Stark, you big dummy!
