[One] / Not a good time for pulling

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

[The view comes on to -- ewww, is that a tongue? Yes, yes it is, because the one who just turned this thing on was what appears to be a Deino, staring at the screen as much as one of those little things can stare. From the... rather skewed angle, it looks like it's broadcasting from the inside of a room somewhere, though it's a little hard to tell where.]

Nnn...

[The Pokemon perks up at the sound, picking up the Xtransceiver (surprisingly without eating the camera this time) and turning around to the figure in the bed it's standing on. The boy's looks are certainly unique, what with the snowy blue-white hair, but he seems to be heavily bandaged for some reason and clearly caught in a nightmare.]

Can't... I can't...

[The thrashing gets a little worse, until the boy sits straight up, eyes wide and sweating.]

Malik!

[He blinks a little, the daze slowly falling off his expression as he looks around, rubbing his face until his eyes settle on what is apparently the Deino off-camera.]

...Uh.

Deino!

...I think I completely messed something up, there.

Comments

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

I see...

Well, at least it let me finish that fight before it took me...

[mediocrespells]

[ Well that explains the injuries. And her Espeon is nosy. Say hello to a close up of his nose for a few seconds before he backs up enough to not be in the way. ]

Unova seems like a pretty nice place so far at least. The Pokémon are interesting. [ She gives the Espeon a good ear rub since he's right there. ]

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

[He smiles at the sight of it and waves.]

Hello, purple cat thing.

[mediocrespells]

[ The Espeon makes a sound that is pretty obviously a return of the hello. Hazel will stifle a giggle and explain what it is. ]

This Pokémon is called an Espeon. His name is Cloud. They're pretty smart.

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

I see. It's nice to meet you, Cloud. My name is Kurt.

[The Deino pops up in the view too, making a little chittered sound.]

And this... this is Jou.

[mediocrespells]

[ Of course she only remembers to introduce herself after everyone else. ]

Oh, and I'm Hazel.

[ Her sheepish tone matches the sheepish smile she's forcing. And she remembers that Kurt is injured. ]

I'm not keeping you from resting, am I?

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

No, I... don't think I could go back to sleep, actually.

[He manages a weak smile.]

[mediocrespells]

[ And she'd been kind of hoping for a reason to stop talking. No offense. She's just shy and feels awkward talking unless there's something specific to talk about. ]

Well um... I'm not really good with long conversations but, if you have questions I'll try to answer the ones I can.

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

[Sorry, he's... a bit dim. He doesn't quite realize this, but he can, however, provide the specific part.]

Well, what exactly am I supposed to do?

[mediocrespells]

Well, there are some options.

Since a lot of people believe the gym badges will help the Entralink work they're training Pokémon and challenging the gyms.

There's Pokémon breeding. Where you can raise them and enter them in contests. I was trying to do that but, I keep missing the contests.

[ She pauses, not really wanting to talk enough to explain everything in detail. ]

People here work with Pokémon all the time so, there's information on the details in pretty much all the towns.

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

Ah, okay! I think I understand now. Thank you, Hazel-chan!

[Always polite, this one.]

[mediocrespells]

You're welcome. Take care of yourself, okay?

[dragonbehindblueeyes]

I will!
