Eighth Card || Video/Action

[primaduelerina]

[ Asuka seems simultaneously calm and discouraged, the latter because she STILL hasn't been able to reach her brother. She's also kind of disheveled because fighting your way through Union Cave isn't the nicest way to pass the time. However, she's outside now, and definitely relieved about that. ]We should be reaching Azalea soon... tomorrow by

*... um. Watching that whole thing was kind of embarrassing.*

[action]

[primaduelerina]

H-Hayate--!? [ poor Asuka is red in the face and she finally gets the Sandshrew out from her skirt and situated in her arms-- where it promptly curls into a ball. ]

[action]

[combat_butler]

Er-- Ha-having trouble, Asuka-san? *a little red himself for... obvious reasons. Though his Shuppet is floating about and giggling at the whole thing.*

[action]

[primaduelerina]

I, ah-- [ she's still a little flustered, but trying desperately to regain her composure and smooth her skirt down. The Duskull is now cackling to himself until the Mr. Mime gives it a solid thump. ] N-no, it's under control.

Re: [action]

[combat_butler]

Th-that's good! I, um... Didn't know you caught another one! *The Shuppet is giving the Duskull a very 'Hee hee you're totally whipped' look after he gets thump'd.*

[action]

[primaduelerina]

Y... yesterday, actually. I thought having a Ground-type might come in handy for future battles. [ And the Duskull would be glaring if he could make that expression, but instead he'll float over to try and headbutt the Shuppet instead. ]

[action]

[combat_butler]

Ahh... Yeah, Rock and Ground-types are really useful as front liners, since they have such high defense! *oh hellll naw, this Shuppet is gracefully floating away. Mostly to go use Hayate as a shield as she chants 'Whiiiipped, whiiiipped~' as she goes.*

[action]

[primaduelerina]

That's what I was thinking, from what I've seen of Saku fighting. A good team should have every angle covered to make up for weaknesses, after all-- Fukuro... [ she says this warningly as the Duskull prepares for another charge. He immediately floats back to her side, as innocent as a newborn lamb. ]

[action]

[combat_butler]

Ahaha... Well, Saku is basically just a giant rock wall of defense... *He blinks a bit at the Duskull, giving a glance to his Shuppet who is sticking her tongue out at the other ghost.* Er... Yurei, you really shouldn't do that-- *he says while petting her a bit.*

[action]

[primaduelerina]

... Between him and now this little one... [ indicating the Sandshrew as best as she can, who is SHAKING ] I've got some additional training to do before they'll be able to fight effectively.

[action]

[combat_butler]

*blink blink, he's leaning down a bit to get a better look at the Sandshrew.* Wow... I'm impressed you managed to find him if he was this nervous before you did...

[action]

[primaduelerina]

With the fighting we've been doing, all of the commotion must have disoriented her enough. Catching wasn't a problem. [ the Sandshrew isn't budging. Care to investigate further? ]

[action]

[combat_butler]

--ah! It's a her? You can never really tell... But that does make sense, considering how big our group is. *given where she's cowering, he can't investigate too far or it will get awkward, but he is continuing to give her a thorough once over!*

[action]

[primaduelerina]

I had to check with the PokéDex, but this one is definitely female. [ the Sandshrew uncurls just slightly to turn her head in Hayate's direction. He's not making loud noises or trying to scare her, so she just looks at him curiously. ]

[action]

[combat_butler]

Mm, all right--*blinking as she turns to look at him* --oh, hello there!

[action]

[primaduelerina]

[ She snuffles at him a bit, which is greeting enough for her. ]
