9th roar [ video + action for Goldenrod ]

Feb 08, 2011 14:24

[ The video is very brief: it's Leon's room at the inn, which you all might recognize from the last video, if you're paying attention, with one very large discrepancy:

Skarmory is taking up the entire bed, along with a clutch of six. Six gigantic, reflective metal eggs ( Read more... )

[ Quistis didn't turn the video on until she'd recovered from her shock, but trust me, she was shocked.

Now she's some hybrid of horrified amusement, covering her mouth to try to hide her smile. ]

Oh, Hyne... Leon, I -

[ Okay, now she's just laughing. She knows she's in trouble, but he's just so serious! ]

[ So pissed you don't even. ]

Couldn't you have kept him on a leash or something? What am I supposed to do with six of them?

[ Okay, okay, sobering up. She'll never talk him down if she's laughing. ]

Sell them or give them away; they'll find good homes. Skarmories are powerful fighters. I know quite a few people have expressed interest in mine.

[ She's even trained her smile down, now. ] And you know as well as I do that a Skarmory on a leash is completely useless. This is as much her fault as it is his - as much yours as mine.

Selling them isn't an option.

[ At the mere mention of selling, Skarmory lets out another shriek. HER EGGS ARE NOT MERCHANDISE, BOSS. B| At Quistis' mention that this both their fault, his expression sours. He knows it takes two to tango, but Skarmory was perfectly fine when her only interest in males was a bromance with Lucky Duck. ]

I guess I'll have to give them away, or trade them.

- Clearly. [ She shakes her head a little at Skarmory's adamant response. ]

You might even get something out of this mess. It's not all bad, Leon.

I know, it's just...this is more trouble than it's worth.

[ Another EAR-SPLITTING SHRIEK OMG BOSS HER BABIES ARE BEAUTIFUL AND NOT PROBLEMS why are you so mean! ]

[ Wince. ]

Here, Leon, show her the 'Gear. [ Oh, God, she's taking out a Pokéball. ]

Fine. Here--

[ He presnts the gear to Skarmory, whose face fills the screen. Skrrraaaarr? ]

[ And when King appears a second later, Quistis offers her 'Gear to him. He peers closely, then gives an excited squawk. - Er, I mean... hey, babe, how's it goin'? ]

[ Skarmory trills delightedly in response, shuffling a bit to show off the clutch. AREN'T OUR BABIES BEAUTIFUL??? ]

[ SO BEAUTIFUL HE COULD CRY. King crows proudly until Quistis catches his lower jaw in reprimand. ]

Quiet, you. Now that you two have had your fun, I'd advise you both behave. [ She turns the 'Gear back on herself to eye Skarmory. ] And don't give your poor trainer any trouble, okay?

They'll probably try it again.

[ He says it matter-of-factly, because he can sort of see it from King's point of view. Sex only once? No man would stand for it--at least no man Skarmory worthy of his baby girl Skarmory.

Speaking of whom, the great metal turkey is giving Quistis a sheepish look, before craning her neck to rub her beak lovingly against Leon's arm. He glances at her, briefly annoyed, then something soft gets into his expression and he gently rubs the underside of her chin. ]

[ See? Look, all fixed. Quistis smiles at Skarmory and Leon, easing her grip on King, who mimicks his girlfriend's little PDA with his own trainer. She smooths a hand over his armoured neck. ]

They'd damn well better try it sparingly. [ It's a warning, and she's still using her 'instructor voice.' King looks appropriately chastised, but try reminding him of that the next time he gets a minute alone with Skarmory. Leon's not wrong. ]

[ A warning glance at Skarmory. ]

You heard her.

[ He is pretty impressed at that Boss Voice you seem to have going there, Quistis. Is that a glint of curiosity in his eyes? ]

At least I'm not having too much trouble finding homes for them.

I told you it wouldn't be difficult. [ This is matter-of-fact, too. ] They're in fair demand.

[ She's relaxing a little now, since the birds have calmed down, and leaning against King. She pins Leon with a thoughtful look, since he's looking at her. ]

... What is it?

You said you were a teacher, right? You sound like it.
