Homecoming Carnival, The Park, Saturday

It was probably a good thing that most of the carnival was set up on Friday night, so when people woke up as kids, everything else adjusted too. The weather was perfect for playing outside - not that a little rain would stop anyone - and it was time to have fun!

Jon shrugged. "I don't have parents. Or aunties. Just my gran." She didn't like when people bothered him, but she hadn't believed him about Mr. Spider. "And there's lots of strangers all over, because it's a tourist town."

"Then my Aunties will take care of you, too," Charlie decided. "They won't mind if I 'dopt you. And nobody messes with the Aunties. You'll be super-duper safe. They'll porb'ly take care of your gran too."

Jon grinned a little. He didn't think it worked like that, but still. "That sounds nice. I live in Bournemouth, though. You're American?" She sounded American.

"No way," Charlie scoffed. "I'm Can-AY-dian. And I don't know where Bournemouth is, but the Aunties can get there in no time through the Wood."

"Bournemouth's in England. And there isn't any wood there, only the beach," Jon explained.

"Are there shrubberies? Or bushes? Cause they can use those," Charlie assured him. "Some day when I'm older I'll be able to just use a couple of plants. I'm gonna be awesome at walking the Wood."

"You can walk through plants?" Jon seemed a little dubious about that, and maybe he shouldn't follow her after all. Things like that weren't safe or good.

"Not now, silly, I'm not old enough," Charlie said with a giggle. "But when I'm bigger I'm going to be the best Wood walker there ever was!"

"What's a wood walker?" Jon asked. "I mean," he said, "obviously because you would walk through wood, but what is it?"

"It's the Wood," Charlie said. "It lies 'tween and around all places, so if you're good you can go anywhere in practically no time at all, if you know how."

"Like another dimension?" Jon asked. "That doesn't sound too bad. If it's safe."

"It's safe if you know what you're doing," Charlie said. "But I'm too little right now."

"And the adults know?" Sorry about the skepticism, Charlie. In Jon's experience a lot of adults didn't understand things.

"The Aunties and mommies do it all the time," Charlie said. "It's easy if you know how."

She pouted. "I gotta wait till I'm fifteen. That'll be forever."

"Auntie Jane says it's never polite to ask a lady her age," Charlie said primly.

"That's only for old ladies," Jon scoffed. "I'm eight," he offered.

Charlie's eyes went wide. "Oooh! If the Aunties heard you saying that you'd be in so much trouble!"

"Why? It's true," Jon protested. "It's because old ladies don't want you to know how old they are."

She shook her head. "I just hope you never meet one of the Aunties."

"Are they old ladies?" Jon asked.

Charlie considered. "Some are older than mommy."

"My gran's friends are old ladies. Some of them are okay, but some like to pinch my cheeks, and I have to hide."

"It's hard to hide from the Aunties," Charlie said solemnly. "Better just to get it over with."

"Do they pinch your cheeks, too?" Jon asked.
