007 || video/action for travel party;

[The recording starts with just Raikov's upper body visible on screen. He looks exhausted and not at all his usual sassy self. There's the sound of sobbing in the background.]

I had the bright idea to get a ghost-type [despite being absolutely terrified of them] and now I don't know what to do. I'm at my wits end.

[He turns his Gear towards the tiny Yamask floating by his feet that's making rather pathetic noises. She only gets louder while the video's recording her so Raikov turns it back to himself.]

She was fine the first day she hatched but now she just keeps crying. It started after I had her do a quick battle. You'd think she'd be happy about winning... Apparently not.

And that's got me wondering... Are battles that stressful to some species or is this a common trait among Yamasks?

[For the sake of his new traveling buddies, he's kept her in her pokeball most of the time just so they don't have to listen to her wail all day long.]

[This is just, unfortunately, one of those things he really struggles talking about with someone who isn't like him.]

Another month or so and I'll be back in Kanto. Looking forward to seeing you then.

[Huh? Did he just say they used to be....people?]

I don't understand. How can Pokémon be people? I thought Pokémon are their own species.

That's kind of weird and spooky. [Were a lot of ghost Pokémon like that?] Yet, you have Yamask now and she needs you as a trainer and friend. Maybe you can bond with her to find out what sort of person she used to be in her past. [Right?]

There's still plenty to see here. I'm sure you'll be fine until I get back.

Fuck yeah. Y'know, sittin' back, chillin' the fuck out. Eat some berries and shit . . . Gettin' in touch with your easy ridin' self.
otakon_geek: (optimist)

[personal profile] otakon_geek 2014-09-02 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well....you could try and get to know her better by reassuring her. Perhaps that will stop her from crying? Or giving her a berry. That always helps my Pokémon.
otakon_geek: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] otakon_geek 2014-09-02 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Some Pokémon just need time to find their feet or uh, their wings. [Yamask didn't have either, did she?] Perhaps talking to her once she has let all of the bad feeling out?
otakon_geek: (angsty)

[personal profile] otakon_geek 2014-09-02 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
I guess. I've been thinking about getting my own ghost-type but I'm still a bit wary about entering Sprout Tower. Stupid I know, but still. Where did you find Yamask?
otakon_geek: (pushing glasses up)

[personal profile] otakon_geek 2014-09-02 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, Botan. I recently acquired a Vulpix egg from her. She's a great Breeder. [Did Botan always offer up eggs? If so, Otacon would make a note for future meetings with her.]

For some reason I thought you did. It must have been the Ruins I was thinking of.
otakon_geek: (In deep thought)

[personal profile] otakon_geek 2014-09-02 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
I remember saying you like food when we first met. [Nothing wrong with that at all.] What is Botan's cooking like? Perhaps I will ask her what she can cook when I see her next.

I'm a hopeless cook. [Yep.]

The swaying pillar.....yeah, I remember that too.
otakon_geek: (angsty)

[personal profile] otakon_geek 2014-09-02 08:46 am (UTC)(link)
[Gee thanks, Raikov.]

Sweets? Oh, they sound awesome. My Pokémon would love to try some of her sweets. Killuia? Is that her friend?

I know I'm a bad cook but we've already talked about how bad at cooking I am.
