CASE 01 ★ [video / action for new bark town]

Jul 10, 2011 16:16

[Well, he-llo there, Johto! On this fine day, you are treated to a terribly exciting view of... gravel. And shoes. And someone's legs, clad in a well-worn pair of green uniform slacks. In the background, you can clearly make out the sound of people shuffling around and going about their business, and closer still is a shrill and excited trilling. A ( Read more... )

[ Action ] - RIGHT BEHIND YOU godofconquest July 12 2011, 23:00:45 UTC

The Swablus like to perch up there. It's natural for them.

[ Hi Yusuke. Keima is standing behind you with his arms crossed. Also, with a Swablu sitting on his head. Keima's Swablu is preening his clouds feathers to even notice another Swablu near him. ]

[action] usedspiritgun July 13 2011, 07:49:45 UTC

[See Yusuke. See Yusuke jump about three feet into the air and drop his 'Gear in surprise. Puu the Swablu is startled, too, but somehow manages to not fall off of Yusuke's head, instead digging his little claws into his trainer's hair and flapping around crazily as Yusuke whirls around to shoot Keima a glare.]

Dammit, don't DO that! [He stands there bristling for a second, but once he notices that Keima's wearing the same hat, he blinks and relaxes a bit, his fists (which he'd raised almost automatically in what was unmistakably a threatening gesture) lowering somewhat.] Hey, that's...

[Well, whaddya know, he's not the only guy here with a stupid bird on his head. Too bad he couldn't figure out whether four eyes here was helping his image or if he was just making him look even dorkier in comparison.]

[action] godofconquest July 14 2011, 07:04:26 UTC

Swablu.

[ Finishes his sentence, and doesn't seem to mind the raised fist. ]

Apologies. But it's best not to resist. They like clinging to their master on the head.

...

They're not afraid to use their talons, too.

[action] usedspiritgun July 14 2011, 07:59:14 UTC

[Grumbling, Yusuke turns away to get his 'Gear.] Yeah, I noticed. Little booger's already tried to claw my eyes out a couple times. [Which naturally has nothing to do with what HE'S doing to the poor thing, right? Right?? ...yeah, right. He gives his PokeGear a quick once over to make sure it's okay, then pockets it and faces Keima again.]

So. You just get here?

[action] godofconquest July 14 2011, 08:17:11 UTC

Don't make many sudden movements and they'll stay put. ...I've been here for a bit, but I'll be on the move soon.

[ Keima adjusts his backpack. ]

I'm starting to run out of supplies.

[action] usedspiritgun July 14 2011, 09:35:22 UTC

What's keeping you? 's not like there's a hell of a lot for a guy to do around here.

[action] godofconquest July 14 2011, 21:43:32 UTC

I've been training my Pokémon. I don't want to strand myself too far into the first route. Not until I gain some familiarity with battling.

[action] usedspiritgun July 15 2011, 05:38:41 UTC

[...PSSSHT.] So what, you scared you'll get stung by mosquitoes or eaten by a raccoon or somethin'? As if that forest is any big deal.

[Seriously, considering some of the things he'd seen back at home, this place wasn't exactly leaving him shaking in his boots - mostly it's just been pissing him off. He looks pretty amused right now, though, stretching his arms up and folding his hands behind his head leisurely.]

Worst thing that might happen is you suddenly get the trots and have to shit in a bush, and then you just gotta make sure you don't wipe with poison ivy. [Which he did do once, back when he first started training with his mentor. Worst jock itch EVER.]

[action] godofconquest July 15 2011, 05:48:28 UTC

N-No, not those sorts of things I need to familiarize myself with. Thank you for the warnings, though.

...

My preparation mainly was learning how I can rely on Swablu and to assess his fighting abilities.

[action] usedspiritgun July 16 2011, 06:27:51 UTC

[Yusuke takes a brief look around at their surroundings, then looks back at Keima, his eyebrows quirked.] ...Maybe I just got a concussion from getting dropped in that lady's house, but unless you've been throwing him off buildings and making him attack mailboxes, I'm not seeing anything he could practice on around here.

Besides, there're more of these little guys in the forest, right? Seems to me it'd make sense to just figure shit out on the road instead of hangin' around in the boonies.

[action] godofconquest July 16 2011, 06:41:02 UTC

[ Keima points to the entrance of Route 29, the only way out of town. ]

You'll find wild Pokémon in the wilderness there. The next town is a few days away; approximately a three day trek. I've been training mine before moving on, always within sights of this town. If an emergency should arise, I want to be able to withdraw to safety as soon as possible.

Swablu's stronger too from this.

[ The Swablu puffs its chest! ]

[action] usedspiritgun July 16 2011, 07:01:14 UTC

[Three days. Well, THAT was just what he wanted to hear. Judging by the looks of things, it didn't look like these people believed in public transit, either. SIGH.]

Whatever. Any of these "Pokemon" mess with me, I'll handle them myself. [Atop his head, Puu begins flapping his wings, chattering urgently. Yusuke glances up at him with a twisty half-smirk.] You too, huh, Puu?

Bluuu!~ [Puu nods, and then, glancing over at Keima's Swablu, puffs out his chest as well. PUFFY BIRD CONTEST, GO.]

[action] godofconquest July 16 2011, 07:07:18 UTC

You could handle some of them now for yourself, yes.

You will encounter stronger Pokémon and they can easily overwhelm you. Our partners however are predisposed to fight so it wouldn't be unwise to utilize their strength.

[ Keima's Swablu puffs his chest up even more! Slowly the blue bird is starting to look like a blue beach ball. ]

And it lets them prove their strength, so it's not like they're not getting anything out of this either.

[action] usedspiritgun July 16 2011, 07:46:31 UTC

[Yusuke looks bored.] Right, right, if I see any demon bunny rabbits I'll be sure to duck for cover.

[He stretches again, then yawns, lowering his arms and glancing around a bit drowsily. Puu, meanwhile, is proving to be quite the spirited competitor already, seeing as how he too is starting to swell up to ridiculous proportions.]

[action] godofconquest July 18 2011, 04:09:46 UTC

...

[ Keima frowns. ]

You're not one to follow the advice of others, are you? Your Swablu should battle to get stronger, so it can fight stronger Pokémon, both wild and trained.

[ Keima's Swablu is so puffed it begins to wobble. It starts rocking off and it regrips its talons--digging them harder into Keima's forehead. ]

UWAAAAH

[action] usedspiritgun July 18 2011, 07:53:37 UTC

[SIGH.] Look, Spectacles, I got that lecture from, like, ten other people already, okay? I'm just not gonna worry about it.

[Actually, it was more like one or two other people, but hey, who's counting? Yusuke's about to say something else, but before he can he's cut off by Keima's bellowing. He leans away, cringing, and then waits until Keima's finished before shooting him a funny look.]

What the hell's your problem? [Says he as he RATHER POINTEDLY reaches up to rotate a finger in his ear. Damn, and people were complaining about HIM being loud. Puu, meanwhile, has deflated to his normal size, and is now acting as if he had done nothing to contribute to Keima's plight. TROLLBIRD: 1, COMPETITION: 0.]
