Pokemon: Bonds!

[enterstageleft]

Who: Those who play games
When: Day 139 morning
What:

[ After stepping off the elevators and into the Game Tower's main room--you find yourself in what would appear to be a laboratory: grey linoleum flooring, book shelves filled with reference books, computers displaying charts and graphs, what looks to be a large TV monitor hanging on the wall, microscopes, cabinets with vials and beakers and all manner of scientific measuring instruments--there's even a large incubator of some sort to the far right on a raised platform featuring six circular wells ringed around its base.

There are also twelve long tables dominating most of the space of the room, one in each specific unit color. Within these tables are circular protrusions with a line down the middle of them. the exact same number as their are active members of your unit--and a small name plaque in front of each space indicating which belongs to whom.

You'll notice that the doorway behind you is locked once you've entered. However, there's another one on the far side of the room (also currently locked) and, to your right, a large black TV monitor that suddenly brightens up--revealing the face of a perhaps familiar host. She's dressed today in the same clothes she wore last time with an additional lab coat on top and a pair of fake (?) glasses. ]

Good morning, idols! I hope you're ready to meet your match today!

[Intensity can currently be found in a staring contest with a dratini. (Also who knew they were almost as tall as him?!)

Why does it feel like he's not going to win this one?]

[420blazeit]

Is Blue-Eyes going to get jealous?

[ she has this grump following her. ]

1/2

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Why would she get---

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[HOLY FU---

WHAT IS THAT!?]

[420blazeit]

Oh, I don't know, because you're hanging around with another blue and white dragon. [ she shrugs and then looks to gabite, who is just staring intensity down. ]

Ggggggabite. I see you've met Sharknado. [ pats his head and instantly his expression changes and he tilts his head back to nuzzle her hand. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Shark... nado. Quaint name.

[Dratini, on the other hand, is absolutely fascinated by the other pokemon and chirps as she tries to get closer, staring contest momentarily forgotten]

[420blazeit]

You didn't get a chance to see him before but he was a sharp torpedo with a mouth, so I thought it was the perfect name.

[ gabite seems interested as well, quirking his head to the side to look at dratini. gently bumps his head with hers when he's able. ] Gaaaaabite gab.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Drati! Drati! She trills excitedly and headbutts right back. But dragons be dragons so when she pulls back from the headbutt, she also pulls back to almost her full height to see how she measures up]

What? Like a Bullet Bill?

[420blazeit]

[ she has a bunch of pictures, because of course she does. ] This. [ shows him a picture of mouth face torpedo shark. ] Huh... I didn't even think about that, though I think Bill would have been too dull a name for him.

[ he's almost 5ft tall, which isn't bad? maybe?? he seems a bit disappointed when she pulls away, so he's going to move closer. let's play some more! ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Very matter-of-factly:]

He had legs anyway. He can't be Bill.

[Okay okay! Let's play!

And by play, that means how many times can Dratini coil herself around Sharknado before he stops her. Drati! Drati!]

[420blazeit]

I should have called him Chomp. [ after chain chomp. ]

[ he just kind of stands there as she does that. he's not going to stop her. each time she passes his face; however, he's going to attempt to boop her with his snout. Gab... gab... gabite. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Well cool then. He'll have a dragon boa plus arm accessories as she has wrapped herself up one arm and down the other. Which means if he boops, he has to nearly punch himself in the face.

Drati! Dra~tiiiiii~!

And since they are pointedly ignoring the children:]

We don't talk about that.

[420blazeit]

[ he doesn't care. #worthit. and since d.va and intensity aren't paying them any attention he's going to attempt to waddle off toward the bay. ]

[ stifles a laugh. ] Why not~? Didn't have fun?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[The fashionable Dratini clothing accessory stays attached, happily trilling as they wander away]

It's all fun and games until someone almost gets flattened by a 2 ton ball with teeth.

Is that how the saying goes?

[420blazeit]

[ gabite is thrilled that the two of them don't seem to notice. time to show dratini a good time! he recalls nya mentioning ice cream there, so that'll be the first thing he tries to get. ]

Eh, I'm sure it's something like that. [ snaps her fingers and points at him. ] We should go back into the vid room sometime. Maybe even get Chomp involved again... but with less almost crushing you.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[What is this mysterious ice cream that Gabite speaks of??? Dratini rests her head on top of Gabite's as they go in search of the mythical cold treat]

...

I don't do re-runs.

That's for third rate idols.

[420blazeit]

Who the hell said anything about a rerun? Just because we have the same players doesn't mean we have to play the same game.

[ he finds an ice cream cart which he just commandeers and rolls over to a nice shady spot. he wiggles around, freeing an arm so he can slice the lid off and then he leans over it to show dratini. look at all of this ice cream! so many flavors! ]

[forgottenmercy]

...ah, she is lovely. [holding this in his arms.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

...

[Turns around to squint at it]

What is that even supposed to be?

[Dratini trills at her unexpected victory and also approaches Persephone, rising up on it's tail to be eye to eye with the pokemon in his arms. Drati! Drati!]

[forgottenmercy]

I am, ah, not certain. But she is, ah, lovely.

[lets Dratini greet Ralts, who is shy in return.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Oh no! Why is it so shy? It's okay, new friend. Dratini tries to bump... wait where is her nose?]

And she doesn't mind just being held like a doll like that?

[forgottenmercy]

It, ah, seems not, but I will put her down once we go somewhere...less crowded. [that is a good question, Dratini.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Considers this for a moment]

Shall we go then? Or you planning on a solo soul searching experience with your helmet ghost?

[forgottenmercy]

Please, ah, lead the way, then.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]
