[coming back from a trip home and the things he lived through and saw there--and having to face up to the fallout here--has left Rory drained, defeated, and depressed. So he's gone outside for some fresh air and to get away from it all. He's currently sitting on a large rock by the pond, trying (and mostly failing) to skip rocks across the water. ( Read more... )

[AND GUESS WHO ELSE IS OUT BY THE POND? This girl! And she's looking around for something... and stops when she sees Rory]

E-Excuse me! Can I ask you something?

[jumps a little in the midst of raising his arm to toss a rock, startled, and looks over at her]

Uh ... yeah--yeah, sure. Go ahead.

Have you seen a Pokemon running through here?

He's a bird with a big hat, and dark feathers!

A Pokemon! There's a bunch of them running around here, they're kind of like normal animals but they have super powers.

[faintly]

A Pokemon ...

[animals with super powers? Sounds really odd. He hasn't seen anything like that, except for that one animal earlier but it didn't--shoot fireballs or open up a rift in time or anything mun is totally handwaving top thread with Arcanine in case this is the Pokemon you speak of He shrugs apologetically]

I'm sorry, don't think I have. [pause] Um. Is it your pet?

No, ugh.... [as;dgah she shrugs]

There's this weird bird Pokemon that keeps stealing my Steel Samurai Collector Edition figurines, and I was going to give him a piece of my mind!

[...blinks. He's probably coming across as being extremely dull but this is a strange conversation to him]

An animal keeps stealing your toys? Like--deliberately?

[maya doesn't seem bothered by it... or even seems to notice]

I think it's a conspiracy! Or at least a really mean pranks.

Oh, I bet it's not a conspiracy ... maybe it just--really likes your figures. It's not doing it on purpose.

You think so? Either way, I was hoping I could follow him to his nest this time, but he got away.

Oh well, I'll get him next time!

Well ... [waffling a bit] It couldn't have taken them on purpose, right? Not to be mean, anyway. It's just an animal.

[right?]

I don't know! Not all animals are sweet and fluffy, some of them hide a dark underbelly.

[anyway, there's a pause] So what are you doing out here?

((glares at LJ))

[he's kind of thrown by the sudden switch in topic, but after a short pause he sort of shrugs and looks back out across the pond]

Just ... getting some air, I guess. Taking a breather. [he looks very glum for a second before looking back at her] What about you? I mean--besides looking for a--whatever you said it was.

That's about it! Once I get my figurines back I can get back to business. [she sees that glum look and kind of files it away for a moment]
