[ Hey, Johto! Remember Ellie, that precociously adorable little teddy bear? Here she is again! She's soaking wet from the feet up, plodding across the floor of the Violet City Inn and carrying a (mysteriously dry) egg that's almost as big as she is over her head. The camera follows her as she pushes it ahead of her up the stairs, occasionally ( Read more... )

[At first he'd been all too happy to dismiss this broadcast the minute it had mentioned breeding. He'd had enough of that, thank you. The glameow egg nestled alongside the charmander egg in his bag was already more weight than he'd wanted to carry.

The fact he knew it was going to hatch into a demanding little creature just like it's mother filled him with the same sort of dread he'd felt at the Demon Queen's announcement she was expecting a daughter seventeen years ago.

But you know what? All of that was forgotten when faced with an utterly adorable pink kitten on the feed.]

T-That's... [he WANTS to say 'disarmingly precious', but all he can do is sort of wibble.]

[ Sebastian keeps the camera trained on Lucy, but speaks behind it with a bit of a chuckle in his voice. ]

Another admirer of feline divinity, hmm? She's quite charming.

[ARE YOU TRYING TO RUIN HIM, SIR? You're doing a good job of it]

It was called a Skitty, you say...?

[Seeming to have sensed her trainer's wandering attention (or maybe attracted by the words "feline divinity"), Princess suddenly leaps onto his shoulder with a disapproving glare and lash of her long tail. Hi, remember her, Gaga? She saved your team from failtown, buddy.]

Skitty, yes. Her name is Lucy. [ He finally turns the camera back to himself, and the sound of his 'Dex can be heard as he looks past the 'Gear. His eyes come quickly back to the screen, however, when he catches sight of another cat in his peripheral vision. ]

Oh - my. [ And now it's obvious that he's just somewhat accustomed to the charm of a Skitty, not immune to the lure of felines on the whole. His eyes sparkle. ] And who is this little piece of Heaven?

This...hmm? [Give him a minute as it sinks in that Sebastian is referring to the pokemon on his shoulder. He's coming down from a cute overload, after all.]

Ah! This is Princess. I discovered her egg among my supplies just before the new year and named her in honor of the princess I'd left back home

[Blue, feline eyes fix themselves on the man on the other side of the monitor uncertainly as the glameow considers Sebastian. You aren't trying to steal her buffoon, are you? There are many like it, but this one is hers.]

[ Sebastian speaks directly to her. ] You're simply radiant.

[ After a moment, he seems to remember, and he holds the 'Dex up to the camera as it plays the entry for Delcatty. ] Skitties evolve with a Moon Stone. Their evolved form is quite enchanting, as well.

[At the flattery, the glameow immediately fluffs herself up, lifting a paw to preen as she lets Sebastian look at what she considers to be her best sides.] Mrewwwww... [WELL! At least -someone- knows quality when he sees it.

Gaga, meanwhile, remains transfixed on the screen, watching the information for Delcatty as it scrolls past, and the tinny voice of the pokedex rattling off it's biological facts.]

So it seems...! [oh my dear gods, a pokemon that seems to be made entirely out of pure adorable.] If you should happen to locate a partner for your Skitty, I would be honored if you would consider me for one of her eggs.

[He fumbles into his pocket to fish out his wallet and check his funds, his expression steadily going from excited to crestfallen. ....technically he COULD afford the asking price, but that would leave him with nothing for supplies. FFF...this is hardly fair.]

....p-perhaps I could interest you in a trade...?

[ Sebastian should probably refuse a trade; he knows that - he has enough eggs on his hands as it is, but far be it from him to refuse a fellow cat lover. Besides, the possibility of obtaining a Glameow egg is far too intriguing. ]

A trade? I suppose that depends on what you have to offer. [ He's still eying Princess admiringly. ]

[And Princess is still basking in the attention, leaning forward a bit further toward the screen and digging her claws into Gaga's shoulder as he winces, giving her a sour look]

....I do happen to have an egg. [he says, seeming moreso to have said it to get a reaction out of Princess. When she can't be bothered to even acknowledge him (and why would she? She's too busy being admired!), he fumbles into his knapsack, fishing out a dove-colored egg a moment later.

It is precisely the shade of the glameow's fur, with a rosy pink ring on it's front. As her egg is presented, Princess turns her attention away from Sebastian only momentarily to give it a cursory sniff and then go back to ignoring it. Mother of the year material, she is.]

This one had an impromptu run-in with another trainer's pokemon and this was the result. I'm not sure whether you might be interested or not, but...

[ Sebastian finally tears his eyes away from Princess to look at the egg at the same time that she does. Before Gaga even explains, he knows it must be hers, and his smile warms. ]

I'd love to. I'll let you know when I arrange a breeding with Lucy, here, and we can make the trade as soon as the eggs arrive, if that's all right?

[he braces himself, half-expecting Princess to suddenly fly into a maternal rage that this is HER EGG they're negotiating over.

However, it seems her lack of interest persists. ....that or she recognizes the importance of sharing her greatness with people who clearly appreciate her. Either way, no arguments here!]

That--that would be perfectly fine, yes! Thank you.

Thank you. I appreciate the opportunity; I'm sure we'll be in touch again soon.
