thirty-second form; and now for something completely different (video/action for housemates)

{When the feed clicks on, there's a Togepi peering curiously at the screen. She trills, and picks it up awkwardly, giving the network a lovely view of Nanao's bare feet and ankles, which grow steadily larger as the little egg Pokemon toddles unsteadily towards her.}

Love, Kanra - I wonder what that's all about... Oh, hello there. {And suddenly we'

[ Guess who walked in just in time to witness the chase scene ]

[ There is a comical sound as Holland tries not to choke on his coffee.

I am 1000+ years old and what is this ]

{And the piano is still going as the Houndoom chases the Alakazam around the yard.}

Good morning, Holland-san. {She sounds completely cheerful.}

action;

[drugsbeleid]

G'morning to you, too. ... What's going on here? [ He stifles a small laugh. It's like watching one of those stupid Youtube clips of sneezing pandas, it's hard not being at least a little bit amused. ]

[used_glare]

Shenanigans, I do believe. {And now it looks like the Houndoom has almost caught the Alakazam - but wait! No, not quite. And so the merry chase continues.}

Or training. One of the two.

[drugsbeleid]

Odd way to train.

Could be worse, I suppose. They could be running through the house.

{And now flames are appearing in little spots on the lawn, but Hanatarou the Furret dutifully water pulses them out of existence.}

... They better not ruin the flowers I'm going to plant.

They tend to stick to the north yard, if that's a help. You probably saw those scraggly berry bushes dotted around the south yard - I've tried growing them, but I'm rather inexperienced at gardening. Unfortunately.

[drugsbeleid]

I've seen them. [ He pauses. ] I can teach you. [ But he'd have to charge. ]

{Holland's skills bring all the women to the yard?}

Oh? Can you?

[drugsbeleid]

[ Damn right. /sunglasses ]

If y'want me to.

[used_glare]

{Oooh Mr Holland oooh~ /swoons}

I'd appreciate that. I never really had time to learn how do simple things like gardening back home.

action;

[drugsbeleid]

Busy with your job? [ he doesn't know what she does back home, but that's what he assumes. ]

I'll start working in the garden in a week or two; I can show you the ropes then.

action;

[used_glare]

{She laughs a little, and stretches. She's not quite used to being able to do everything normally just yet.} Just a little.

I'd appreciate that. I've got to start looking for a job again, but I'll try to be around.

action;

[drugsbeleid]

Let me know when when you've got time. We'll work something out.

[ He's still holding the cup of coffee, having momentarily forgotten it due to the wacky chase scene and the conversation. He finishes what's left and then sets it aside on the nearest suitable flat surface (not the piano, obviously). ]
