"Moomin" "Even you, who always tries to keep strong, - will have moments when you need to shed tears." "In those moments, just cry your heart out, - and then you will find that the sadness quickly disappears." "Come, come here to where I am." "Come and hold out your little hand to me." "I shall take you to the world of dreams." "As long as you have an honest heart, all is well." "An Invisible Friend" "Come, now." "No need to hesitate." "This here is the Moomins' home." "Rain has been pouring the whole afternoon that - day, so Moomin was playing inside their house." "Around twilight, Too-ticky arrived for a visit." "Hello, Moomin." "Oh, welcome!" "Mamma, Too-ticky's here." "Come on, Ninny." "Come inside." "Huh?" "Is someone here with you?" "Yes." "I brought Ninny with me." "Ninny?" "Do come inside." "No one else is here." "She's here." "She's invisible, though." "Really?" "Yes." "You're really shy, aren't you?" "Alright, then." "You can come inside when you're ready." "Won't she get wet though?" "It's alright." "You can't get wet when you're invisible." "I see." "Welcome, Too-ticky." "Hm?" "What is everyone looking at?" "I believe you're all aware of this." "But people, especially children, tend to become - invisible when they're always treated badly." "Isn't that so?" "Yes." "That's what happened to Ninny." "Her aunt was very severe towards her." "She took Ninny in, but she didn't really care about her, you see." "She was a very cruel woman." "It's not that her aunt had a bad temper or anything like that." "That would've been much better, actually." "She was unpleasant in that she was cold as ice." "What do you mean by cold?" "Let's see..." "For instance, if you played around the house and - broke a vase, what do you think Mamma would do?" "She would probably scold me, telling me to be careful and all that." "Exactly." "That's the natural reaction, isn't it?" "Her aunt was different, though." "She didn't get angry at all." "Instead, she'd say coldly, " ""I know you can't do that dance very well, but - there was no need to take it out on that vase."" "She was that kind of person." "What an awful woman." "She treated Ninny coldly every single day, and - at some point, Ninny just started to fade away." "She started fading from her feet and gradually turned invisible." "Last Friday, she became completely invisible." "Poor girl." "When I went to visit them, her aunt said to me, "I - can't keep taking care of a girl I can't even see."" "So what did you do to her aunt?" "Did you give her a good hit on the head?" "That won't do any good when you're dealing with such a cold person." "What I did was take Ninny home with me." "And I thought that the best way to make her visible again was to take her here." "Mamma is the exact opposite of that aunt, after all." "Exactly!" "And I thought Moomin could be her playmate, as well." "Can that girl speak, Too-ticky?" "Unfortunately, she has also lost the ability to speak." "Oh dear." "I'd love to be that girl's playmate, - but if I can't see her or hear her voice, how will I be able to play with her?" "I suppose you didn't notice." "Her aunt placed a small silver bell on Ninny's neck." "Oh." "The door opened." "That would be Ninny." "Come in, Ninny, come in." "Don't be afraid, you're welcome here." "This shall be your new home." "You've already met Moomin earlier." "Over here are Mamma and Pappa." "These are Floren, My, and Sniff." "It's nice to meet you, Ninny." "We were just having tea." "Would you like something to drink as well, Ninny?" "I see." "I shall fix you a nice glass of raspberry juice then." "Alright now." "Move aside so that Ninny can pass." "Our dining hall is this way, Ninny." "The truth is that I don't know much about Ninny." "I've already told you everything I know." "Please take care of her." "Don't worry, Too-ticky, we will." "Here's your juice." "Drink up." "Well then, I have an urgent job waiting." "Please keep me posted on how she's doing." "I'll come and visit too, of course." "Leave it to us." "Goodbye then." "Oh." "Yes?" "I just remembered." "There were other people staying here, weren't there?" "Oh, you mean Tofslan and Vifslan?" "They left last week." "I see." "Oh my." "You drank it all up." "Would you like another glass?" "So that's enough for now?" "Are you following me, Ninny?" "This way." "Do come in, Ninny." "This will be your room." "I'm leaving you an apple and some juice." "Please help yourself when you want." "Oh, are you going to sleep already?" "I see." "You did walk a lot today." "No need to get up early tomorrow." "If you suddenly feel scared in the middle of the night, - or if you need anything at all, come and wake - me up." "I'll be in the room across yours." "Oh, yes." "You can just ring your bell near my ear." "Good night, then." "She's asleep?" "Yes." "I just remembered." "There might be something on that - notebook of yours about a good remedy for this." "There are various remedy recipes, but I don't - know if there was anything for being invisible." "You should check." "Let's see..." "It should be in our bedroom." "I hope there's a remedy." "Yes." "It's here." "Treatment for when people fade away like mist and become invisible..." "Well bless my tail, there is one." "That night, Mamma stayed up late brewing up - a remedy for making people visible again." "It seems that it was a very complicated mixture." "It'd be nice if it works, even just a little." "Grandmother's remedies never fail to work." "I do believe that." "Anyhow, is that girl still asleep?" "Ninny's shoes are now visible!" "Pappa, Pappa!" "Good morning, My." "Is that girl awake?" "Yes, she is." "Then?" "Where is she?" "Did she have breakfast yet?" "I don't know." "She went to the dining hall with Moomin..." "Oh no!" "Where is she?" "Where is she, Moomin?" "Pipe it down, you two." "Ninny's about to drink her medicine." "Go ahead, Ninny." "Drink and swallow quickly." "Yes, just like that." "You're doing great." "Well, time for breakfast then." "Oh, floating shoes." "Yes." "Her feet have become visible." "What small feet." "And very stylish." "Since your feet are now visible, I - wonder if we can see your face soon too." "Seeing as you made yourself invisible, I - guess you don't think much of your face." "Don't mind what My says." "Just eat up your bread, so we can play after." "We can't play hide-and-seek." "It'll be tough finding Ninny." "We can't play tag either." "Let's see..." "Let's go mushroom picking then." "But that's not playing..." "It's fun, though!" "What do you think, Ninny?" "It's decided then!" "We'll have a mushroom picking contest today." "I can't tell the difference between edible and poisonous mushrooms, though." "This is fun." "Pappa, Pappa!" "Look!" "Ninny's feet are now visible." "I see Mamma's remedy is working well." "No, they were visible before she drank the medicine." "Then it's probably because of Mamma's kindness last night then." "Love works even better than medicine." "Yes, I suppose that's it." "Mamma, we'll take Ninny mushroom picking with us." "That's a great idea." "Good morning!" "Good morning." "Morning!" "Where is she?" "Amazing." "You've gathered quite a lot, Ninny." "You're finding them quite easy." "You're really good at this." "I've only collected about half of what you have, so far." "Hey, Moomin, how much have you gathered?" "Oh, wow, you've gathered up quite a lot!" "Oh?" "W-well." "I guess." "This is twice what I have." "Is this really your basket?" "Oh, so that was Ninny's." "Y-yes." "That's what I meant." "I bet her aunt always made her gather mushrooms." "That must be why she's so good at it." "I guess." "Yet her aunt was still dissatisfied and treated her coldly." "That's really sad." "It's Stinky!" "Bad company coming." "I hate him." "Hey!" "Long time no see, Moomin!" "Shame." "My recent days have been really bright since you haven't been in them." "Well, well." "Look at you talk." "Anyway, why is this basket floating in midair?" "That's none of your business." "Hurry up and go away." "Oh, I know!" "This person got bullied a little - and now she's made her self invisible!" "Let me carry your basket for you, Ninny." "Come on, let's go." "Let's go, Ninny." "Hey, sissy!" "How does your face look like?" "I bet you're pale and on the brink of tears right now." "Cut it out, Stinky!" "Ninny was an unfortunate girl." "Yes, poor little girl." "Someone who's made herself invisible once - can never be visible again, after all." "That's not true!" "Oh, you don't know?" "Pappa and Mamma both said that Ninny can definitely regain her appearance." "You're just lying to her to keep her hopes up." "You're the liar." "Ninny will definitely become visible again." "Her feet weren't visible yesterday, but we can definitely see..." "You see?" "Her feet are slowly fading away again." "They're going to be invisible soon." "Ninny..." "Too bad." "This is all your fault, Stinky!" "Even Moominmamma can't make that girl visible again!" "I'll even bet on it!" "Ninny already drank Mamma's secret remedy, and - we're all going to lend her our strength!" "We'll definitely help her regain her appearance!" "Whose basket is this?" "That would be My's and my basket." "I'm sorry to tell you, but your basket comes in last place." "There weren't a lot of mushrooms where we searched." "It's not a problem of quantity." "Look, you collected some poisonous ones." "This one is called The Sickener." "This here is a Panther Cap." "Look and remember them well." "This one is Moomin's and this one is Sniff's, am I right?" "Did we collect some poisonous ones too?" "They're not as bad as Floren's and My's, but this - one's a False Morel and this one's a Panther Cap." "You two picked the same kinds of poisonous ones." "Ninny's basket is amazing, though." "There aren't any poisonous mushrooms at all." "And you did very well, collecting this much all by yourself." "Where are you, Ninny?" "Please come near." "Mamma's calling for you." "Come closer, Ninny." "Thank you, Ninny." "Let's have these mushrooms for tomorrow's meal." "I can see her feet again!" "I'm very happy for you, Ninny." "I'm sure - we'll all be able to see your face soon." "That's right." "You'll just have to endure for a bit longer, Ninny." "Forget everything that silly Stinky said to you." "Right." "I just forget everything unpleasant too." "That's how I'm always happy." "Yes." "Sniff is pretty much good for nothing, but - just for this one, you can actually learn from him." "The truth is that you're a very bright and disciplined young girl, aren't you?" "You just have a weakness." "I'm right, aren't I?" "Oh!" "She's becoming more visible!" "That's wonderful, Ninny!" "Congratulations, Ninny." "If you just keep on, we'll be able to see your full body soon!" "Indeed." "You're wearing a rather plain dress for a pretty young lady, though." "Mamma said you can sleep in late tomorrow as well." "Let's play again tomorrow." "Good night." "What's Mamma doing?" "Do you know what time it is, Mamma?" "You need to sleep soon, else you won't be able to wake up early tomorrow." "Look." "What do you think, Pappa?" "It looks good." "Very pretty." "It's been a while since I last sewed a girl's dress." "I enjoyed it very much." "I think this will look really good on her." "What's this?" "A ribbon." "Good morning, Moominpappa." "Good morning." "You're very early today, My." "Where's Ninny?" "She's still asleep." "You're early today, My." "I'm here to play with Ninny." "Come in." "I'm really curious about how she looks like." "I also want to see her face soon, but we'll - probably have to wait a while." "Right, Pappa?" "I suppose so." "No matter how slowly it happens, I'll be - happy to see her becoming visible again." "Oh." "I think I heard the door open." "She's awake." "I wonder if she liked the dress I made her." "I'm glad, it looks wonderful on you!" "Her body's visible!" "I suppose it's fairly stylish." "Thank you very much, everyone." "Your voice is also fairly pretty!" "Ninny's face isn't visible yet, but the Moomins - felt relieved after hearing her voice." "It was a very pretty and gentle voice." "Ninny regained her cheerfulness day by day." "Even when Stinky bullied her again, she didn't disappear anymore." "I wonder when we'll be able to see her smile." "Next time on Fun Family Moomin, Episode 10:" "Ninny Smiles Again" "Look forward to it!" "My dream, my love, when you're by my side even the color of the wind changes" "The water shines as it plays with light" "Melt time into that sky"
