-- gyaaaaah!

[The video is tilted at an odd angle, almost like it was scattered across the ground on accident. But it is clearly showing an amusing scene of one derpy and affectionate Arbok coiled around his spiky-headed trainer tightly as he nuzzles his nose into said spiky-headed trainer's hair

[Ace just got to the city about a week ago, when he notices Kaito being mauled by the Pokemon. ...Normally he would break a chuckle, but after being assaulted by his own Pokemon himself he can't help but watch on feeling pity.]

I feel your pain.

[Zuru lifts his head from his nuzzling and tilts it to the side slightly to regard Ace curiously. Meanwhile, Kaito just glances up and shoots him a Look]

Thanks. The empathy is really helpful. [... don't mind him, he is just in a sour mood]

[lionedace]

Sorry, I know it isn't worth much, but it's better than being laughed at, right?

[heaving a heavy sigh as he pushes against Zuru's coils]

Leggo you idiot-- Mind at least trying to help? There should be some food in my bag. [gesturing to said bag, which is laying a few feet away]

[ And here comes Talim! Trailed by a slightly grumpy-looking Typhlosion ]

Kaito? Do you... need some help?

[ action ]

[bakaitoukid]

[grumpy scoff]

No, I've got it. I'm perfectly fine. [said very dryly, of course]

[ action ]

[allthecolorsof]

... You don't really look like you've got it.

Food. Front pocket.

[OH ZURU.]

[Heather's standing nearby, and leeaaaans over the struggling pair.]

... At least she's not trying to eat you. That would suck.

[This has been your Daily Piece of Heather Stating the Obvious. You're welcome.]

[bakaitoukid]

. . .

Thank you. I had no idea.

[Action]

[foolishwren]

No prob!

I just, y'know, figured I should let you know.

[Grin.]

Need any help?

[Action]

[bakaitoukid]

No. I'm perfectly fine. I don't need any help whatsoever.

[There is a quiet moment of the video as Kuja is looking between that, and Iago the Arbok, who is coiled up next to him with an expression that would be more fitting on a floppy dog than a giant snake.]

... You're never to try that - and I'm quite thankful that you haven't before. [And he's actually giving the Arbok an affectionate headscritch, which gets a happy hiss and the snake leaning into it.]

[some time after he has freed himself!]

If they're persistent, that won't work. Trust me. [HE HAS TRIED]

[Video]

[silver_lucifer]

It must be a temperament issue, then; I somehow haven't had that problem. [Iago DID do a " D: Must cuddle breeder!" but it was less "OH GOD YOU'RE A SNAKE WHAT ARE YOU DOING?", and more "DRAPE OVER SHOULDER PATHETICALLY".]

[sulking now]

Lucky you.

[... Strangling a person to make them feel better? Of course! Why hadn't Crow thought about that?]

Looks like someone's in trouble~

[Yeah, he'll be just. Standing there, grinning, and generally being of no help whatsoever.]

[action]

[bakaitoukid]

Ha ha ha. Aren't you the master of stating the obvious!

[SOUR MOOD CENTRAL]

[action]

[darkenedgales]

It's not obvious! You guys look like you're wrestling. Or doing some weird yoga...

[Totally serious here. /sage nod]
