[ here, have Makoto's grinning face. She seems incredibly pleased, moving the camera to show her surroundings.
Yep, she's in Violet. ]
We made it in-- awhile ago, actually, but I wanted to check the place out first! It's a lot bigger than Cherrygrove, isn't it? If anyone's here from 765, I--
[ she stops abruptly, because there's suddenly a wail of GREAT LAMENTATION coming from nearby. ]
My baby! My baby's about to fall off the roof!!
[ in the span of three seconds, Makoto's face goes from YAY to WHAT THE HELL to I GOT THIS, and she hastily tosses the 'gear in someone's direction... instead of turning it off. ]
Sorry, hold this for a second--!
[ the unseen cameraman obliges, giving the network a lovely view of Makoto taking a window ledge to haul herself up on the roof of a nearby building overlooking the water. You can just dimly make out the shape of a small form in a sunbonnet wobbling dangerously close to the edge, right before it teeters and falls off, to the gasps of a bunch of people who really have nothing better to do than gape in horror.
Makoto doesn't even hesitate, flinging herself straight down after the baby. More gasps and anxious murmuring, and then-- MORE GASPS, because she just executed some kind of midair twist like a ridiculous shounen protagonist, catching the baby in one hand and the edge of the roof with the other. She dangles for a few seconds, before she reaches up to help the baby onto the roof again.
The baby, once there, proceeds to VINE WHIP HER IN THE FACE and rappel down on aforementioned vines.
Because the baby is a Bellsprout.
As for Makoto... well.
If you missed the yelp and the flailing, the tremendous SPLASH could probably answer that concern. ]
proper idol behavior,
violet city,
when in doubt improvise,
it's a thankless job,
off to a great start,
look before you leap,
look flowers,
the most feminine of idols
