[Post 017] Video/Action for Goldenrod City

[of_france]

[There's rather self-satisfied laughter just off-screen as the 'Gear comes on. It reveals two Ninetales, both with their tails facing the camera. The giggling follows the camera as it goes around and reveals one very cross-looking Marianne and... a derp-face Marianne?]

Change back, Martin. I'm trying to show you off!

[The derp-face Ninetales

Do be careful. You might find yourself drowning in eggs... Or with a very charred Ditto.

[France giggles lightly.]

I'm sure Martin has more sense than to let himself get too carried away in the throes of pleasure!

[He does look a little curious.]

What do you mean by charred?

[France is blind to any and all of Marianne's faults.]

[Video]

[puppet_paladin]

Marianne seems to be a headstrong lady. Any encounter would have to happen on her terms, or else her suitor might find itself sent away in a very burning manner.

[It's not a fault, it's a quality!]

[Video]

[of_france]

[He makes a sound of understanding and nods, grinning.]

I can always trust Marianne to make the right choices. She's such good girl.

[France reaches behind and rubs Marianne on the head affectionately.]

You hear that? You're my good girl.

[And doesn't she know it.]

[Envy's looking at the screen in a mix of 'intrigued' and 'mildly horrified'.] There's one that transforms?

[Video]

[of_france]

[France beams brightly.]

Yes! Dittos appear to have the sole ability to transform. Then they can mimic the moves of the other pokemon.

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy considers the pink blob. Now watch as he gets vaguely jealous of a pokemon. He wants that power back damn it.] It was more impressive when I used to do that.

[He is a bit curious though.] What are you gonna use it for?

[Video]

[of_france]

[France blinks, tilting his head and peering at Envy with unabashed curiosity.]

Were you able to toss the laws of physics, too, and change mass as well as overall form?

[He shrugs leisurely.]

Maybe for a bit of breeding. He's just too adorable to use for fighting.

[Video]

[used_slackoff]

[Ah! That was the one that one guy told her about. She can't quite recall his name, though.]

Ditto, right? Where'd you get him?

[Video]

[of_france]

Yes. I caught him just south of Goldenrod. 'Felt like going for a bit of a walk.

[Video]

[used_slackoff]

South of Goldenrod? Really? [Hmm... she might want to catch one, herself.]

[Video]

[of_france]

[France nods.]

They're probably at least around Goldenrod. I wouldn't think they'd just be in one spot.

[Nature doesn't work that way in video games, France.]

video.

[retrusting]

[Wide, wide eyes.]

He's like a jelly...!

[Video]

[of_france]

[Cheerful laughter.]

He is! When he isn't transformed, at least. He seems rather solid otherwise.

[Video]

[retrusting]

Well, he looked like a fox before. Is that 'transformed'...?

[Video]

[of_france]

[France nods.]

Martin has the ability to transform into any pokemon he sees and copy their abilities, too. He's very smart.

video.

[reimprovise]

[Chuckle.] Why French?

[Video]

[of_france]

Because, as the Great Nation of France, my pokemon must be the epitome of beauty and love!

[This makes sense in France's head.]

[Video]

[reimprovise]

[........... loooooooong pause.]

... sorry, I don't think I really understood. You're the Great Nation of France?

[Video]

[of_france]

[Flourishing gesture!]

That's me: the Republic of France, Nation of Love, Light, and Beauty!
