[The feed is very obviously accidental - and from the angle, the pokegear's clipped to the belt of someone who's pacing around the south edge of New Bark Town, quite agitated and apparently looking for something.]
[Audible, and visible here and there, is an exceptionally pathetic Feebas flopping along behind, trying to keep up as best it can as a fish out of water.]
[After a minute of THAT, whoever it is stops, and turns towards the fish, who stops at their feet, looking positively pitiful. It's hard to tell what it's trying to convey, pitiful just seems to be its natural state.]
How did you even - what bird dropped you here? [There's a long moment of silence as he's pondering the fish, and the fish is looking up at him... then a long-suffering sigh.]
Here. [He's scooping up the fish at arm's length, walking over to the coast edge, and …. depositing it in the water. Then turning to walk away.]
[It's quiet behind him for a moment - but only because the Feebas is swimming back to get a good head start, launching out of the water to land not far behind him and continue flopping along behind - at which he freezes, and turns back to stare at it again.]
Oh for the love of - how hard were you dropped?
[Then follows attempt number two at returning the fish to the water. And walking away. And the fish launching itself out of the water again.]
….......................This has to be some kind of a joke.
[OOC: For those in New Bark Town, he can be found on the south edge of town, near the water, seriously puzzled by his seemingly suicidal starter and trying to figure out how the fish hasn't suffocated yet on land. It probably won't take him very long to figure out the Pokégear once there's a video call.]
