01 | Voice/Video; Action for New Bark Town | How do I technology?

[ You can hear fabric rustling, and the sound is muffled, like someone left their 'Gear on inside their pocket. ] Calm down, Talim. Okay.

There must be some mistake-- Excuse me! Someone? This woman is not my mother. I must-- Oh! [ There's a thud, and the 'Gear goes clattering to the ground. The video kicks on at a rather odd angle, showing... someone's foot, a bag, a pokéball, and, well, the ground. ] I'm terribly sorry.

[ The foot knocks into the pokéball, causing it to open. Talim gives a squeak of surprise, and falls flat on her butt, narrowly missing the already fallen 'Gear. ]

Scyther.

Ah. Hello?

Action!

I guess so.

[Squalo glances over at 'it'. The Larvitar leaves the slightly mauled cap alone for a moment, eyeing Talim with suspicious red eyes.]

Lar.

Do you figure we're supposed to give them names?

Action!

Yeah, that does seem pretty lame. Hmm...

[He crouches down, looking at his pokémon, and cocks his head at as a gesture for it to come to him.]

Come here.

[It takes a moment, peering at the both of them distrustfully, but finally trots over to him.]

Larvitar. ...tar.

[He tilts his head up at the trainers questioningly, and Squalo doesn't bother suppressing his smirk.]

I'm going to call you Goloso.

[Reaching out to pet him with his left hand, which appears to be not made of flesh but rather metal, only results in having the Larvitar bite his index finger. Hard. He doesn't flinch.]

Action!

Yeah. 's why I didn't offer him my flesh hand to chew on. 'Goloso' means 'greedy'.

[He tugs his finger away, but Goloso seems rather determined to keep it. Or at least take a bite out of it, to the point where Squalo lifts him up by it.]

Action!

There's that too. But he's done nothing but eat since I got him, at least when he wasn't trying to kill my hat.

[Before he can place his free hand under his Pokémon, Goloso lets go and drops to the ground, starting to march away.]

Lucky for my wallet, it seems he eats soil.

Action!

How'd you feel if someone ten times your size kept following you around?

[He's kidding. It's not like he cares a whole lot how Goloso feels right now anyway.]

Well look at his stubby legs! He won't go far. Besides, I doubt he's got anywhere to go.

[True enough, Goloso stops at a bare patch of ground near the pile of blue wool that is the mauled hat, and peers over at the trainers as if he just knows they're talking about him.]

Action!

He doesn't seem to like anything very much, besides perhaps eating. [He sneers. Reminds him of someone.]

Of course there's the chance it's just me.

Action!

[Shrugs. Some people, and pokémon don't seem that far removed, never change. No matter how 'not bad' you are - but Squalo's used to that. Goloso just starts eating again.]

We'll see, I guess. So, what're you gonna name yours?

Action!

[identity profile] sharkfoodbound.livejournal.com 2011-02-23 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
Did anyone tell you if it's a he or a she?

Action!

[identity profile] sharkfoodbound.livejournal.com 2011-02-23 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
So you think they understand us properly?

I couldn't tell if mine called me names when I'm not looking.

[Right on cue, there's a muttered "Lar" in the background.]

Action!

[identity profile] sharkfoodbound.livejournal.com 2011-02-23 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Squalo shrugs.]

Fair enough. ...so what're you gonna do here?

Action!

[identity profile] sharkfoodbound.livejournal.com 2011-02-23 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
I guess an adventure is one thing to call it. Shit, and here I thought I was done with training journeys.

Action!
