Not much to say on these except that oh cripes do I love Yuuko and Clow. Also, everyone is clearly on a whole bunch of drugs. And if DARE and Scruff McGruff (what a pimp!) never convinced you not to smoke crack, this certainly will.

AND THE PRESENT IS... (Pgs. 26-28)
"...Mokonas."
Yes, Yuuko? How do you like your present!
"I'm very happy that you wanted to give me a present, but..."
Yay! Us Mokonas are happy, too!

"But what exactly did you use to make this?"
Lots of stuff! Stuff that was in Clow's room.

"Aha. So you made this purple goo in Clow's room."
Goo?
"Oh, I see. They must have mixed ether in there, too. That'd do it."
Ether?

"'That'd do it'? That's all you have to say for yourself!? This purple thing is alive! It's talking!"
The thing that we made is talking?
"Mm hmm. It's faint, but I can hear it."
What's it saying?

"'I want to become human! Now, now!"

???

Is that a good thing?
Or a bad thing?

"In any case, you two didn't do anything wrong. Clow did. Leaving something like that just lying around his room!"
"It wasn't dangerous in the least when it was sitting by itself."
"That's not the point! You're still to blame!"

Yuuko and Clow start to talk to each other.
It sounds like a really complicated conversation.
But we keep watching them, and soon they turn back around to us.

"Thank you, Mokonas."

They smile at us.

Thank goodness.
We look at each other and smile. Ehe!

We'll make you another present, Yuuko and Clow!


EVEN IF WE'RE FAR AWAY (Pgs. 29-33)
Every day, Yuuko and Clow teach us something new.
Sometimes it's a little hard, but it's always lots of fun.

Today, we're doing something different than usual.

Soel is going to go with Clow.
And Larg is going to go with Yuuko.

What for?
Why are we being separated? What are we doing?

"The two of you can talk to each other, even if you're not together. It's a little bit like calling each other on the phone."
Oh, really? Can we call anyone?
"No. This is something that only works between you two."

Only us.
Only Soel and Larg.

We can have secret conversations.
Ehehe!
That sounds like so much fun!

"All right, Larg, why don't you try first?"
Okay, Yuuko.
What should I talk about?
Oh, I know! If it's like using a telephone, then I know what to say.

"Hello, hellooo!"

Ooh! I heard Larg's voice!
"Now try answering, Soel."
Okay, Clow.

"Hello, hellooo!"

Ooh! I heard Soel's voice!
"It looks like you can communicate, then. Wonderful!"

"Yuuko seems happy!"
"Clow seems happy, too!"
"That makes me happy."
"That makes me happy, too."

It's fun to talk like this! And even if we're separated, we can still talk.
Let's try and talk some more.

"Hey, you know what? Clow said that Yuuko drinks too much!"
"And Yuuko said that Clow drinks too much!"

"What was that?"

"Oh and guess what? Yuuko says Clow's a creep in glasses."
"Hey, Clow! Yuuko said you're a creep in glasses!"

"Hahaha! Is that so!"

"And Clow's gonna put something in Yuuko's sake to make it less strong."
"You know what else? Yuuko's gonna hide Clow's glasses. On the roof."

Oh! Yuuko's smiling.
But she's got this vein on her forehead. An angry vein.
Oh! Clow's smiling.
He looks a little confused, but he seems happy anyway.
Talking like this is lots of fun.
And no matter how far away we are, we'll still hear each other.

Let's have lots of secret conversations!


HEY, WHAT'S THAT? (Pgs. 35-36)
We feel very happy today!
We're going for a nice walk.
Sometimes we like to jump around a little outside.

The weather is so nice!
It's fun to go on adventures together.

Oh! There's something up on that wall, there!
What's that?

It's a cat.
Yeah, a cat.

Yuuko loves cats.
Clow loves cats, too.
Why don't we get this for them as a present?
Yeah, a present!

But you know, Clow said, "Yue's just like a cat."
So does that mean Yue's a cat?
If Clow's already got a cat, he doesn't need another. Should we get him something else?

Yeah, probably.
Probably.

Sorry, kitty cat. You're cute, but we've got to find another present.

Bye, kitty cat!
See you later!
Later!

Next time, we can play!


MEANWHILE (Pg. 37)
"Where could Soel and Larg have gone?"
"Well, they're pretty fast walkers, so-"
"Walkers? If you can call that walking! More like leaping, don't you think? Of course they're fast! Ooh, but in any case, they're out there somewhere. I hope that they're all right."

"You're worried that they've run into something dangerous, then?"
"Yeah, right! I'm more worried about the damage they'll do out there."
"I figured as much."

"Let's get looking for them, then."


AN ALTAR BOY IS WRITING A SONG FOR HEATHER AND I. US. FOR US. So I can officially die happy, now!
