Aug 29, 2011 19:45

[now, one certain intrepid and wayward hero exploring New Bark this evening has a surprising amount of experience with talking trees-- that is to say, Link likes to think he knows exactly what to do with one in particular that's planted itself right before the entrance to Route 29, tiny tree limbs waggling in the breeze. of course! surely if he ( Read more... )

It's a rock type. It doesn't like water.

[ Not quite laughing, but certainly amused. ]

[there are way too many things to react to in that split second, but as Link scoots over to look down at the 'gear and sees Leon on the screen-- hey, he sees that look!-- he ultimately decides that maybe the random talking person on the screen is probably the least strangest thing going on here. he's got a charm that does the same thing, after all.]

[so he nods down at Leon, his eyebrows squaring and his mouth settling in a determined line. right, rock! Link will need to test this for himself. enjoy watching as he scoots toward the Bonsly on his stomach, then slowly-- sloooowwwly-- raps on the tree with his knuckles.]

Oh! [rock. Link knew that.]

[ Leon watches, a bit curious at Link's methodical way of figuring things out. From what he'd seen earlier, this boy must be used, in some way, to stranger challenges than this. ]

It's called a Bonsly, unless I'm remembering wrong. [ He can't quite recall when things like 'light screen' and 'Tentacruel' became important terms to learn. The knowledge had snuck up on him, and he woke up one day and found he could recite all of Skarmory's attacks and the levels she'd learned them at. ] It's your pokémon.

[Link sort of looks at Leon as if he has three heads for a moment-- but then, after a fairly perplexed pause, he just shrugs, and tips his head in a silent and polite thanks. any information is enough information for him to work with!]

[if this "Bonsly" is his now, he's going to have to figure out a way to carry it around-- but Link is only in the vague direction of the right track when he stands up and tries to heft the poor pokémon on his back. it's not really that heavy, but Link is a pretty small kid.]

[He's been thinking it a few times before, but this decides it. From monkeys and weight lifting contests, dragon barbeques and flying on the backs of giant birds-]

This place is crazy.

[Wonderland crazy. And at least there, the giant flowers give you stuff.]

[... hold that thought, Sora, there is a kid staring at you with the wiiiiiiiidest eyes. they may as well be taking up his entire face.]

[What is it, Link?! Did Collin fall down the well-- is there something on his face?! There's a monkey on his head, somewhere; that much is obvious. But you'd think there was a monster peering over his shoulder, with those bug eyes Sora's getting.]

Huh? Hey- what's...

[Just, staring back here, Link. Have some big eyes right back.]

[Link... silently lifts both of his hands to the sides of his head. pinches the air a few inches from his ears, eyes still wide. how does Sora get his hair to spike like that?? Link's always wanted to try spiking his hair, but Grandma kept telling him that the ChuChu jelly is for medicinal purposes only.]

[Well, he's going to take a moment to lift his PokeDex since he hasn't exactly seen this Pokemon before, but once it states it's the pre-evolution of that damn tree a Sudowoodo, Vanitas snorts quietly.]

It hates water. It's only pretending to be a tree.

[WHY DOES EVERYBODY HAVE SUCH COOLER HAIR THAN HIM. Link fumbles with a strand of his blond bangs a bit, as if disappointed. but--]

That doesn't make sense.

[Don't think that Link, he totally does not like how it fluffs into place. He's just out of hair gel today and needs to get more to flatten it back down >_>]

It's actually a rock type. [Holding up his Dex then, the computer voice reads off the data.]

Bonsly, the Bonsai Pokemon. Bonsly is the pre-evolved form of Sudowoodo. Although it looks like a Grass Pokémon, it is actually a Rock-type. When it collects too much moisture, it produces fake tears to get rid of it.

[but it's so spiky and the hair gel is supposed to keep it spiky and-- well, Link thinks on this information for a moment, before offering the only commentary he can, really.]

Weird.

[Link just... shakes his head, ten kinds of bewildered. none of these sound even vaguely familiar.]

He's a rock. [as Link lifts his hand and donks on the Bonsly's head with his knuckles again. it looks about ready to send Link flying back into town.]
