1st Flame - Baby steps
[It's been a few days since the first arrival of outsiders in New Shaleton, and while you all are doing your own things, finding houses, pestering residents, trying to find a way to get home, things like that, there is one little Torchic who is doing something that is maybe a little bit different.
Walking.
Yes, walking. Pacing back and forth, big steps, small steps... occasionally he'll try to break into a trot and then a run, but he usually doesn't make it too far before he trips up and tumbles forward, landing face-first in the dirt.]
Dammit...
[His tripping is not limited to running - it even sometimes happens if he's not careful while walking. He's been going through this a lot over the past few days though, so every time, after a few seconds, he pulls his feet back underneath him and pushes himself upright. So far as birdlike expressions go, there's a bit of a scowl on his face, sometimes irritated, but just as often thoughtful as not. Not knowing how to walk, having to learn everything all over again... it's familiar. Moreso than he'd like it be.
Bother?]
[[ooc; Still backtagging his intro, but wanted to throw this up and get some posts moving outside the intro log. Have at!]]
