Bout 006 (Video/Action): It really IS a Persona protagonist.

[usedgalacticpunt]

[The video opens on a Ditto, who seems to look a little sheepish. Behind it is everyone's favorite female kick-favoring martial artist, Chie, looking extremely irritated. She grabs the sides of the Ditto's face and stretches it out, then lets go, allowing it to snap back into place.]

Souji-kun. [Yikes, that's a cold tone. Streeeetch... Snap. Chie keeps doing this through the rest of the paragraph.] I left half my team in the room to relax, 'cause I wanted to get some one-on-one time in with a few of them. And when I got back, I found a certain Pokémon had snuck into my room while I was out. [Streeeetch... Snap.] You really need to do something about this thing.

Anyone else who's listening... Well, I guess I've got some eggs to sell! [She sighs and gestures to the side, and whoever's holding the camera turns it to show off a pile of Pokémon eggs. Looks like there's about 8 or 9 of them.] I know most of 'em are Snorunt eggs, and the other ones... I think they're gonna be either Tyrogues or Shuppets. I'd probably rather have cash, but then again, if you've got a cool egg sitting around, we can make a trade too. Let me know!

[The camera turns toward Chie again.] That's about all on my end. I know I've been quiet lately, but after the whole... bug thing... [She suppresses a shudder.] Figure a little peace and quiet is a good thing for once. Later.


[OOC: Egg post! For everybody who responded in my OOC post, your eggs are ready! That is... Rise/Asuka, Fuji, John & Rose, Hinagiku, Rin, and 410, if my list is correct.]

[herolegs]

Nnnnnno. Especially not the bugs here. I swear some of those things were three feet long!

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

That's nothing. My Yanmega's nearly twice that.

Want to see him?

[video]

[herolegs]

[Squeak!] N-No thanks!

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

You sure? He's really nice.

[video]

[herolegs]

Y-Yeah, I'm good, thanks! [The Yanmas that weekend were bad enough, she can only imagine what their evolution looks like.]

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

If you're sure...

[video]

[herolegs]

Yep! Ehehe... So, are you interested in a new Pokémon, by any chance? I gotta find homes for these things before they hatch.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

... Sure, I guess. [duly noting the bug thing though] What kinds do you have?

[video]

[herolegs]

[sob.]

Well, like I said, most of them are Snorunt eggs. That's an Ice-type, like Suzuka Gongen over here. [She picks up the little Snorunt and sets her in her lap.] Then there's a couple Tyrogues, they're Fighting-type, and Shuppets, Ghost-type.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

... I could use an Ice type, I think.

How much do you want for one?

[video]

[herolegs]

They're pretty cool! [Pun not intended, or even noticed by the speaker.] She managed to take out two of Falkner's birds single-handed when I challenged him. [Suzuka Gongen puffs out her chest ...self proudly.]

Uh, let me think... Maybe 1000 dollars or so? It's not like I need a whole lot or anything.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

... All by herself? [raising an eyebrow] That's pretty good.

[a nod] I can handle that.

[video]

[herolegs]

Yep! It helps that they're weak to Ice, but she still held out really well! I only had to bring Bruce in for the last fight.

Great! Where are you now? If you're not near Goldenrod, I can probably have one of Souji-kun's Flying-types bring the egg to you.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

Bruce?

I'm in Violet. I could send my Yanmega, if you want? He's really fast.

[video]

[herolegs]

Yep! He's the Hitmonlee I started out with. Well, he was just a Tyrogue when I showed up in New Bark.

[Erk. But that is a good suggestion, loathe as she is to admit it...] A-Alright. I'm at the new breeding center just next to the entrance to Goldenrod.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

Sounds tough.

[he can't help but grin at that] Okay. I'll send him with some money.

[video]

[herolegs]

He definitely is!

[Why does my pain amuse you.] Right! I-I'll have the egg ready for him when he gets here.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

Maybe I'll meet him someday.

[:D :D :D] I'll send him now then. Is that okay?

[video]

[herolegs]

Sure, I'll introduce you some time! He's... He's around here somewhere, I dunno what he's up to.

[:|!!!] Sure! [And muttering to herself:] Might as well get it over with.

[video]

[thebelsareinert]

Probably training, right?

[a far too happy nod] I'll get him ready now. See you.

[... and he cuts the feed to get the bit of money tied to his jesusdragonfly]

[video -> action]

[herolegs]

Wouldn't surprise me! He's always eager to practice.

[She shuts off her feed too, heading over to sit by a window and keep an eye out for a giant dragonfly (sobsob).]

[action]

[thebelsareinert]

[Eeeeventually, she will hear a BZZZZZZZZZ in the distance.]

[action]

[herolegs]

[ffffffff. She peeks out the window, egg in one arm and Suzuka Gongen in the other. (Juuuust in case.)]

[action]

[thebelsareinert]

[And after a few moments, there is a GIANT ENORMOUS SIX FOOT LONG green dragonfly flying into the general area, a little bundle of money tied to one of its legs.]

[action]

[herolegs]

[Holy mother of god that is a big dragonfly. Chie hugs Suzuka Gongen a little bit tight as she walks around and steps into the doorway. And... can't make herself walk any farther.]

Stay calm, stay calm, it's not gonna do anything, and if it does you've got backup... H-Hey! Y...You're here for the egg, right?
