Vague Hildibrand 6.4 spoilers

Babycorn sat down alone in her chair. Everyone besides her and Cherrypit had already left the room and after Hildibrand. It was just her that hadn’t yet processed what exactly she had seen with the rest of everyone. Could anyone really blame her? “Um.” Butter poked her arm, he was a little worried when Babycorn didn’t respond. “Are you alright Bebe?” Babycorn laid her head on her hands and just kept staring straight ahead. “Uh. Huh?” The concussion might have been making this ten-times worse too.

The last thing Babycorn remembered was watching Hildibrand run in front of her, taking a hit that was meant for her. It had filled her with a bunch of bad memories but after that she was drawing a huge, empty blank.

It took a minute but she realized she was now lying on the floor. It was pretty comfy.

“Bebe!” Cherrypit was also sitting right next to her. There was a crayon in his hand and a piece of paper in front of him. He must have been drawing something while she’d been busy sleeping on the floor.

Or at least, she thought she had been sleeping.

“Bebe! You ‘kay?” He waggled his crayon at her.

“I’m fine Cherry.” Though that was pretty far from the truth. Her head kinda hurt and she couldn’t really remember how she got here. This sort of feeling wasn’t too unfamiliar to her but it had been a hot minute since something like this had happened to her.

Not since that time she took a big tumble in Kholusia.

Babycorn looked around, she recognized this place. It looked a lot like the house that she and everyone had found Hildibrand sleeping in and just recently had found Pupu sick in too. Which meant she was in Radz-at-Han.

“Yeah! Ding ding ding!” Cherrypit let out a cheer. “Bebe’s right!”

He must have read her mind again to know what she was thinking.

“As always!” She boasted, “Thanks Cherry! You’re the coolest, you know that?” Anyone that was anyone would be jealous of her super cool little brother. I bet they wished they had a little brother as cute and as smart as her’s. She had really missed him.

Cherrypit let out a happy laugh, and a whole bunch of baby babble with it. It probably meant something along the lines of, “You’re cool too Bebe!” Or Babycorn hoped it did.

There were small little beds set up around the room. That’s when Babycorn noticed one that was pretty much right next to her. It was yellow in color and that’s when she recognized it as the same one that had pretty much been a constant companion on her adventures.

From the time that she knocked herself out trying to fish in the Ruby Sea to the other time she accidentally ate a poisonous plant. That small little yellow bed always had her back whenever she had to take an unexpected nap during her travels.

Weird though. She didn’t carry it around. So who did?

“Wuwu!” Cherrypit answered. “Peepee! Vegooo!”

“Lunya and Peepo and Viggo?” Had they been the ones to put her here?

Cherrypit nodded. “Put Bebe and Coco and Butts!” He stood up and began to run around the room. Babycorn tracked him as Cherrypit ran onto the ceiling and pointed down at something using his crayon. “Coco!” he helpfully told her.

Sure enough, under Cherrypit sat a confused looking Coco.

He had a little bandage on his head, it was pushing down a part of his fluffy hair and Babycorn thought it looked kinda silly. Babycorn couldn’t see it herself but she was wearing a similar looking bandage on her head too.

“How long have you been here?!”

Coco’s expression mirrored Babycorn’s, he was just as surprised as her. “W-What? How long have you been there?!”

“I’ve been here the entire while!” Babycorn crossed her arms and pouted.

Meanwhile Cherry was still continuing his journey across the ceiling, stopping right on top of another small bed. “Butts!” Cherrypit pointed. Unlike both Babycorn and Coco he looked like he was deep in sleep.

Cherrypit put his finger to his mouth and let out a “shhhhhhh!” Just like Lunya had shown him earlier when he said he wanted to stay with Babycorn.

“Oh! Butts!” Babycorn was a little surprised to see him here. “How long has he been there?”

“...How long has he been there?” Coco asked.

Neither had an answer.

Babycorn hoped that Butter wasn’t sleeping for the same reason Hildibrand was. He would probably be really scared if he found himself all by himself in the First. What would she tell Pancake?! She would gladly take care of Pancake while Butter was gone of course but would Butter be okay?! Maybe true love’s kiss would wake him too like it had done to Hildibrand!

She did kiss Hildibrand right? That wasn’t a dream she just had? Hmm.

…What was she thinking about again?

“Hey Coco? Do you remember what happened?”

Coco sat up, he put his hand on his chin to look like he was thinking really hard about something. And that was because he was. Try as he might, he was coming up with the same conclusion as Babycorn.

He couldn’t really remember what had happened, let alone why most of them were in here with the same bump on their head.

“No bump!” Cherrypit reminded them. He pat the top of his own head proudly.

There was just one little memory in his fairly large and fluffy head from between heading out to help Pupu recover from his cold and now.

“I think I did something really cool!”

“Huh?” Coco Cocoda? Do something? Cool????? “Like what?”

“I threw a ball into a basket!” Coco stood up and mimicked the movements he saw himself doing in his head. The reason why he had done something like this were a little muddled but he was sure of one thing. He looked really cool!!! “I went like-! Wooooooosh! Pow! Pow!”

Babycorn remained unconvinced. “I think you’re making that part up Coco.” She couldn’t remember any of what Coco was talking about. Not to mention the very idea of Coco pulling something like that was pretty unbelievable in the first place.

“Noooooo! It’s true!!!!” Coco cried, “You were there too! You saw it!”

“Uh. I think I would remember seeing you do something like that.” Babycorn scoffed. She prided herself on her memory. It was like a steel trap. She could remember the menu of every restaurant she had ever visited. Surely she would have remembered seeing a Coco ballin moment.

“It sounds like you're just making something up.”

“Nooooooooo! Melmeltan was there too!” He was sure of it! If there was anything that he was sure of, it was that Melmeltan was there to look at how cool he was!

Babycorn scoffed, “Now you’re lying to look cool in front of Melmeltan? She already thinks you’re cool, you dummy! Leave some cool for the rest of us!!” How else was she supposed to win both Hildibrand’s hearts at this rate if Coco kept stealing all the cool moments from her.

“I’m not lying! She probably thought I looked super cool…!”

In his concussion induced head he clearly remembered that Melmeltan had cheered him on and given him a trophy for coolest guy in the world and winner of her heart. Somewhere off to the right a ten year old Chocobo racer was sobbing into his hands. That would show him!

Babycorn touched the bump on her head again. It didn’t hurt as much as it had earlier, now it was just kinda sore. That weird feeling that she was forgetting something was still very much lingering though.

“Here I’ll show you!”

Babycorn turned her attention to where Coco had called out from. He was standing on his bed, a red colored materia in his hand. It was much smaller than a ball but it was pretty much the closest orb shaped thing Coco had on hand. “I’ll throw this into that bin over there! Then you’ll believe me!” Said bin was all the way on the other side of the room.

It might have been the concussion that Babycorn didn’t know she had but she actually believed that Coco might actually be telling the truth. At least, he sounded confident enough about it.

“Okay! You can do it Coco!” Babycorn cheered.

Cherrypit had a bad feeling about this. Which he could only articulate by covering his eyes with his hands.

“HiYAH!” Coco threw the materia with all of his might towards the bin.

At that very moment the door to their room opened. Lunya, Reese and Viggo walked in. In that order.

“Hey guys? Are you feeling b-”

The red materia that Coco had thrown hit Lunya right on the side of the head, knocking her down to the ground. Reese looked down at Lunya and then over to Coco with her mouth wide open in utter shock, completely speechless.

Lunya was alright, just on the floor. “Owwy.” Her voice was muffled.

Coco was frozen. Out of fear and surprise that he had managed to throw something that hard enough that it would knock someone down. Mostly fear though.

“OOooOOh! Somebodys in troubleeee~!”

Babycorn was glad it wasn’t her for once.
