Nyuu blinked. She concentrated as hard as she could, repeating the word in her head over and over. "S... snyu... shoo..." She paused, taking a deep breath. "Shin... shiny..." She blinked. "Shiny!! Shiny! Shiny, shiny shiny shiny!!" She had done it!
Tania jumped up and down. She took Nyuu's hands and bounced around in a circle. She sat down again. "Shinies!" She said.
Petrova walked through the wilderness. (For a reason that shall not be disclosed. Fine. It's because she's needed in this RP.) She heard a girl talking. She paused and watched the fairy talking to the red-head girl.

Nyuu grinned, bouncing along in the circle too. "Shiny! Shiny! Shiny!" she exclaimed. She officially had two words in her vocabulary. It had only taken thirteen years.
Her ears twitched as she heard someone else, and she looked around. "Nyuu....?" she asked quietly, looking around the trees before looking back to Tania.

"Okay, ready for another word? Sparkles." Tania said the last word slowly. She pointed to her shimmery skin. "Sparkles!"
Petrova stepped forward. "What are you doing?" She asked the blonde girl.
Tania looked up. "I'm teaching her some words!" She said joyfully.
Petrova's eyes twitched. "Sparkles? And shinies!?" She asked. "Why not something like, Get away from me you insane pyscho freak!?"

Sparkles.
Nyuu repeated it again in her head. It seemed like a much more difficult word to pronounce, but at least it started with the same sound. "S..." She paused, then looked at Petrova. Her ears flattened against her head, not liking the disposition she currently had.
She looked at Petrova, and on an impulse, got up and tackled the older female. "Shinies! Sparkles! Nyuuuu!" she exclaimed. Three words — a world record!

Petrova's eyes twitched. She did NOT like being tackled. Period. But the girl was obviously mental or something. So she gently pushed her off and stood up.
"Sword." She said, and pointed to the sword at her side. Much more useful than SHINIES.

Nyuu pouted when Petrova pushed her off. She didn't seem very happy. She was like Jira — rather cranky. The fox-girl looked at Petrova from her seat on the ground, then looked to the long stick attached to her waist.
"Sw..." Nyuu took a breath. This word seemed a bit hard. "... ord. Sword?" She was pronouncing it a bit odd, but the idea was there. She looked to Petrova, waiting for approval.

Petrova nodded slowly. "Um...yeah. Okay, how about...tree." She pointed to a tree.
Tania folded her arms poutily, upset that someone had taken her job of teaching the girl words.

Nyuu looked to the tree. It didn't start with the same sound as the other words... could she do it? "T... r... tr..." She bit her lip. "Tree!" Nyuu stood up and ran over to the tree, hugging it. She would have tackled it, but that would have resulted in extreme pain.
