backdated to yesterday sometime, video/spam?

[Once again, the video focuses on the skinny little blond boy. He looks a good deal happier than his first entry, smudged and dirty and grinning as though he's fit to burst. The only obvious problem is that he's coughing, wheezing and gasping for breath. But he doesn't care about that, that's practically a daily occurrence in his life. It is easily solved with a few deep breaths from the inhaler he'd been given earlier, and he leans back against the wall to finish getting his breath back. Then, a Very Important announcement:]

I got to play baseball. There's a big room upstairs with trees an' grass an' stuff and we played baseball! Even that red-headed girl played, though I don't think girls can play very good.

[He takes another deep breath and, unfortunately, starts wheezing again -- but if you run into tiny Steve, please do feel free to bother him. He's in an awesome mood.]

[Oh gosh it's a dog. Steve hesitates a little, because he knows better by now, knows that dogs cause asthma and that's not exactly good when you're already having an asthma attack -- but he's always wanted one. They look so fun to pal around with, after all! So he's just -- watching Fozzie intently, debating whether or not to go up and offer a hand.]

[Fozzie doggiegrins because CHILD and his tail goes crazy, but he stays right in place instead of jumping up eagerly and being even more huge.]

[Wanda notices the tail and gets up to see what's up. When she sees bitty blond kid she sets aside her stress and smiles reassuringly.]

Hey there. He doesn't bite or anything. His name's Fozzie. I'm Wanda.

[Steve creeps a little closer, still giving Fozzie a bit of a wide berth, but gives Wanda a small smile.]

Hullo miss, I'm Steve.

You're Steve? [Oh my God he is so bitty. She peers--yeah, same eyes, same smile, same tends-to-be-floppy hair.] Hi! Um. I can put Fozzie in his crate--

[Fozzie whines dramatically, flops over and covers his eyes with one paw. Noooo! No crate!]

...if he bothers you. He just likes saying hello to people.

[Also there is the matter of it being a fairly small room with a very big dog.]

No, he's not bothering me. I like dogs, I just -- never had one.

[scarlet_discord]

Huh. That's odd. You seem like a dog guy to me.

[Fozzie urfs and rolls on his side, tongue lolling.] Though Fozz here is more like three dogs.

[doesntlikebullies]

They make me, uh, sneeze. [Thus the hesitancy.]

Oh, I'm sorry. That's too bad. But you know, a lot of people grow out of asthma and allergies. Maybe you could get a dog when you're older.

[Steve needs a dog. He's a dog guy, it's basically written on his forehead as far as she is concerned.]
