[the montage cuts to that scene in the sandlot where Smalls comes back into the house and his stepdad puts a giant steak on his swollen black eye.






actually no it's just Manabu overhand throwing a fastball at a kid who is six but also thirty-five. the outcome can be completely different because at least Kaidan's heard of hand-eye coordination before.]

[ Kaidan actually does catch it.

But he makes a loud 'Oomph' sound, and falls backward.

He doesn't have the same mass anymore, after all.

He held up his gloved hand, from the ground. ]

I caught it...

[siriusly]

[Manabu goes from a wincing recoil to delight pretty quick as he trots over. jeez, was he overdoing it? then again, kids are tough...see? Kaidan's tough.] Haha, hey, not bad!

[he stops just short of him, leaning forward and grinning.] That's the kind of catch that ruins the other team's day.

[kanadian]

Ugh, it's gonna ruin my day --

[ He murmured, and started to sit. ] Oof -- that one hit pretty hard.

[siriusly]

[he laughs weakly, crouching and draping his arms on his knees.] If it helps, you can have your revenge when you get big again. I'm pretty sure you got a better arm than I do at your right size...

[kanadian]

Well -- I am a marine.

[ He said, proudly. ] But right now, that was a bit much. Do you mind if we call it quits on the baseball?

[siriusly]

Seems like a good stopping point. [not the end of the world or anything, but dang. try to look a little more bummed, Kaidan, just so Manabu can be extra sure he's not done a lick to help.] You alright?

[kanadian]

Yeah, I'll -- I'm aching, but --

[ He rubbed at his stomach. ] I'm a lot tougher than that. Good throw, though.
