[When the video feed flickers on, you get a nice view of the starry night sky stretching endlessly above. His voice filters through whimsically like something distant and far away.]There's Andromeda to the north, Libra... Vulpecula, and maybe Orion's to the ( Read more... )

[ late-night Cherrygrovers, you say. this one here can't seem to sleep, taking a stroll with his Riolu egg and Benji, his Growlithe, the self-appointed guard dog. apparently lost in thought, he doesn't notice anyone's there at all until Benji growls, staring up at the figure on the lamppost. ]

Huh? -Ah, oh. Benji, shh, leave him alone.

[An airy laugh, and he waves down, genial.]

Ah, no, it's fine.

Sorry if I started him. I didn't think anyone else would be up at this hour.

[ shakes his head, apologetic. once he sees that whoever's there isn't going to come after them, Benji seems to relax, taking a seat at Suzaku's feet.. but still looking a little suspicious. ]

He's a little over-protective. Sorry for disturbing you.

[He hums, thoughtful. A shake of his head, even though it's probably vaguely blurry from that height.]

No... that's not necessarily a bad thing. Pokemon are sensitive; they tend to be protective of gentle people.

You can say they're a good judge of character.

[ skeptical right away, although he doesn't say anything about it (and tries not to show it, either). gentle? him? nah. his companions, maybe, but not him. ]

I suppose that's true. He was probably a little startled, too.

Sorry, I'm rambling, aren't I. [wry. he whistles to the flygon, aaaaand it drops him down genially.

Reaching into his pack, he pulls out a pokemon treat. A pause-]

Ah, you don't mind, do you?

Not at all.

[ smiles a little, actually, stepping back as Benji's nose starts twitching, glancing around and then staring at that treat in his hand. want......... tongue lolls out of his mouth, standing up again. ]

[a chuckle, and he tosses the treat to the waiting dog. It's weird, to be standing next to a dog and not having to run away fairly frantically.

The treats help, probably.]

Benji, huh.

[ Benji scarfs it right up, tail wagging. any doubts he may have had about this stranger and his Pokemon are dispelled, replaced by the delicious joy of the treat. once he's finished, he is more than happy to lick an unguarded hand with a Grrrooowl. ]

Mm. He was too small to be called Ben when he hatched, Benji was more fitting.

[Ah, this reminds him why he likes small furry creatures so much. They're so incredibly affectionate, without all of the emotional burden. It's honestly very cute.]

Why 'Ben'? Friend of yours?

[ shakes his head. wouldn't dare name any of his Pokemon after his friends back home... that would suggest attachment. ]

No, I just think it's a good name for a dog. Or... a Growlithe, in this case.

[He hums in consideration.]

It's a sturdy name. I'm glad people put thought into these things -- I've seen some terrible nicknames in my time.

Nobody, for example, should be allowed to call their pet 'Fluffy'.

'Fluffy' is... too obvious a name, especially for a cat.

[ a weak laugh, not quite making it to wholehearted status. he's just like that, it's okay. his laugh box is broken. ]

I think 'Fido' is terrible, too.

[a wince. yeah, Fido's pretty bad.] I think someone should take the time to make a list of all the things pokemon should never be called.

It'd be a really long one.

Possibly. If you had a cat, what would you name it?
