Blossom 009 [Accidental Video]

[usaginouke]

[The feed starts out showing only darkness, but chattering voices and footfalls on a smooth surface can be heard.]

It's p-pitch dark in h-here. Wh-where's m-my flashlight? [CRACK!] --Ow! S-sunk-kern? Are you ok-k-kay?

S-sun!

[The sound of more shuffling, and then the telltale sound of a Pokémon being released from its Pokéball. It's not long before a faint glow begins to fill the cave--for that's where Misaki is, Dark Cave--and it's obvious the PokéGear has been dropped on the ground and must have turned on after the impact.

Misaki is covered in a thick coat, but he's still shivering from cold. His hair is wet from snow. In his arms, Sunkern is nestled in the green scarf Cocona-chan knit for Misaki, and beside Misaki stands his newly-evolved Ampharos, its tail offering a little light to the room.]

Th-thanks, Ampharos. N-now, if only y-you c-c-could build us a-a-ah-ACHOOO! [Misaki laughs weakly and rubs at his nose.] A fire.

[Ampharos blinks at Misaki for a moment, then grabs him in a hug. Misaki, surprised, laughs when the Pokémon's attempts to warm him by snuggling closer.]

It's okay, Ampharos! I'm fine now! Thanks! [Misaki laughs, his teeth no longer chattering from the cold so much now. Then, still oblivious to his dropped PokéGear, he begins to look around the cavern curiously.]

Now, Cocona-chan said there was supposed to be Geodude around here. Tell me if you spot any, okay? [His Pokémon respond with affirmative chirps and they begin to walk further into the cave, away from the PokéGear. Quick! Before he gets away, someone get his attention so he doesn't lose his Gear!]

((OOC: Backdated to earlier in the afternoon today. Action responses allowed for anyone that may happen to be around the Route 31 end of Dark Cave.))

But I'm going to try and get her to open up to guys a bit more! Since it won't be fair to them.

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

I think that would be best too. She probably... didn't have great experiences before, so you just have to show her it won't always be that way.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

I thought it was because she just didn't like guys, not because she had bad experiences with them... I'll ask her original trainer one day then. Maybe that could help clear things up!

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

O-oh, well, I could be wrong. Ha ha ha... Um, still, it might be a good idea to check with them, yeah.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

Yup!

... Will you be okay by yourself? Since it's dark and all.

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'll be fine. I have Ampharos, after all. She's always a big help in these kinds of situations.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

It's great to know that she's such a big help and all~

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

She's a great help! She's always wanting to train though... so I can get pretty tired.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

Can't you sit out somewhere while Ampharos goes out to train? I usually do that to my Pokemon.

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

R-really? I'm always afraid one will get hurt when I'm not looking!

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

I don't really think there's a big chance that my Pokemon would get hurt with low-leveled ones in the wild, so I let them do whatever they want. And if they do get hurt, they always come back to me for a potion or a lemonade!

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... I just don't feel it's a good idea. Mine... a lot of them are pretty skittish. And small.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

Do they like to be lazy and stuff?

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Yeah, especially Sunkern here.

But Beedrill and Ampharos are better about going for it. It's mainly Sunkern. And as for Furret, he's just really shy and mistrustful of others.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

Is Furret strong against other Pokemon then? If he doesn't trust that much...

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Y-yeah, he's pretty good as long as the type doesn't overpower him. He's more skittish than all the rest, so he'd rather run than lash out at a surprise attacker.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

... Like an ambush. Maybe your Furret is like a trained soldier!

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Or he's just a 'get them before they get you' kind of guy.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

That's how soldiers usually think though.

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

..... Why would you know what a soldier would think, anyway?

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

Because I worked with them! Fought them too. [what is being tact.]

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Oh, right. It's hard to remember you fight... stuff back at your home.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

[She pouts and staaaaares at the Pokegear rather accusingly.]

That's right! I did!

[usaginouke.livejournal.com]

Sorry, Cocona-chan. I believe you. It's just... little girls don't fight anything where I come from.

[photonsaber.livejournal.com]

Our worlds sure are different...
