Uh.

I think I'm lost. This isn't Cerulean, is it?

[it's so not.

Marui's standing in front of the Safari Zone. Not that he knows this is the place beyond the cliffs if you go through Cyanwood. He never bothered to explore the area after getting his badge there. What a genius, huh?]


Anyone seen Yagyuu? I, uh. My team... isn't the team I had before I got here. I mean. There's only one PokeBall on me right now and it's got this guy-- [there is this orange thing, hovering around Marui, looking so very pleased with itself.] Is it even really a Pokemon? I've never seen it before...

[Marui just sighs, shoulders slumping forward.] Just. Can anyone tell me how to get back to Cerulean from here? Or anywhere with people? Please?

[So there’s Marui by the exit of Ecruteak to Route 42, with a rather large backpack and stuffing his face with a donut. He’s standing next to a Rapidash fashioned with bicycle handlebars (because he told Masamune he’d try it out, too). He has a map out in his free hand.]

Mahogany isn’t as far as I thought it was. At least we’ll be out of here soon, so you don’t have to worry about another Ghastly suddenly appearing in front of you. [There’s a teasing grin on Marui’s lips as he looks at his companion, Yagyuu.]

[The aforementioned Yagyuu, for his part, looks mildly disgruntled at the teasing, but largely keeps his expression composed. He’s walking along with his own Rapidash, which is more traditionally saddled.] It’s around a day’s walk, isn’t it? That should be quite manageable, particularly with the help of the horses.

[Yeah, he’s not touching the ghost thing. Blech, ghosts.]

Yep! We’ll get there in no time, and I’ll be one step closer to the League. Plus, after I get my last badge, we can explore Kanto! [Marui folds the map and keeps it in his pocket. He was so excited just thinking about travelling to Kanto.

He pulls out a packet of gum and offers a stick to Yagyuu, with a big grin on his face. Sometimes, it was hard to tell if he was just genuinely happy or if he was going to tease. Only sometimes, though.]
And if another ghost-type appears, I promise I’ll catch it!

[Yagyuu looks as though he’s about to refuse the gum out of sheer force of habit, but then after a moment, reconsiders and actually takes the offered stick, though he doesn’t pop it into his mouth.] Yes, because that’s precisely what the house needs. More ghosts.

They’re just pokemon, Yagyuu. Nothing to be afraid of! [Marui says it like he’s never been scared of ghosts at all, but Yagyuu was the one with the issues here, not him. He unwraps and shoves two sticks of gum in his mouth and starts chewing.]

But man, I should have asked you to come with me when I got my Fog badge! [Marui is snickering, and hopes that Yagyuu didn’t catch that. He blows a bubble and unclips a pokeball from his belt, he opens it and aims at at the broadcasting ‘Gear, and the next instant, the ‘Gear falls to the ground with a clatter.]


I really should figure out how to keep Ouja in his ‘Ball. [Marui walks over to pick up the gear, gives it a grin and a wave before shutting it off.]

OWWWW!

[Anyone paying attention to the network would have been witness to the sudden turning on of Marui's device just before it crashes down, skids across the floor and somehow settles at a nice angle where you can all see the inside of a barn-- the barn in Goldenrod. If anyone is familiar enough with the area, you would know that it is part of the Tennis House, and where Rikkai keeps most of their Pokémon, when they're not in their balls. Heh, balls.

Anyway, getting to the point: a certain Girafarig's darker half is biting at Marui, looking angry or distraught or a mixture of both. The front half doesn't seem to mind what his backside is doing, probably even approving of the biting. The Rapidash nearby don't seem to be paying much attention to the scene, but the Machamp seems concerned at least.]


Owww, quit it, Ace! Let me do my job and-- not the ear! Let me just-- Don't make me put you back in your PokéBall! [Oh, that seemed to work...? It stopped biting Marui, at least, and Ace is letting the redhead pet him now.] You're not the only one upset that Akaya's gone, you know.

[And it is at this point that something big, blue and furry sits(or rolls over) in front of the camera, snores, and makes the feed cut off. But if you're ever in the area, Marui will just be in the barn, making sure all the Rikkai Pokémon are well-fed and warm and totally not sulking, who does that? Sheesh.]

[here's marui at the violet inn lobby, seated comfortably on a couch. his munchlax is sitting next to him, slowly devouring a bowl of fruit. marui, meanwhile, is sending a video message to someone.]

--gotten the Zephyr badge and Jackal and I are making our way through Union Cave soon to get to Azalea for my next badge. We'll be back in Goldenrod soon, Yukimura-kun! Tell Sanada we're working hard and keeping up with our training.

[he finishes this message and hits the send button. after this, he records another video message.]

Hey Sisuca! Look, I got my first badge! [he brings the badge up with his free hand to show her.] I've got a long way to go to catch up to you, but I'll definitely make it! Let's have cake to celebrate, okay?

[now that this message is done, he'll send it to sisuca--]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[marui frowns. that's... not supposed to happen. so he tries to send it again.]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[and again.]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[and again. this time, he accidentally broadcasts his recorded video to the whole network too.]

ERROR: ID Number not found.

[shit. marui looks worried. and very sad. he takes a deep breath, eyes closed and pinches the bridge of his nose-- boys don't cry after all.]

[the video feed ends there, but anyone at the inn would find a redhead sitting at the lobby, holding a munchlax like a teddy bear, with his 'Gear on the other side of the couch, just staring off into space.]




ooc; badge is mod-approved!

[This video post is brought to you by a very bored Tensai Jr. Why is this Ivysaur bored, you might ask?

Because his trainer is sleeping.

Out on the tennis court.

Next to a big, pink slowpoke, who is just staring right into your soul somewhere off-screen.

Yep. right by the net, a certain Marui Bunta is using Jackal's Sobesa as a pillow. There's a tennis racket next to them, and a few balls lying around. The towel and empty water bottle in Marui's hand indicates he was practicing some time ago and is now catching some z's in the sun, leaving his Ivysaur free to do whatever he wants with his stuff. Which is probably why he's filming this for the whole of Johto to see.]


Veeeeeeeee.

[Tensai Jr. moves closer to his trainer and Sobesa, picking the racket up with one of his vines, probably wanting to test out this tennis thing since Marui seems to be so into that kind of thing. He swings the racket back and forth and this is all you get for a couple more minutes.

But then something happens! Sobesa moves her head, as if following something. Something invisible maybe? Perhaps, but there is a sudden wailing noise loud enough to wake Marui up with a start. And then there's that wailing noise again, it sounds something like this:]


MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH

[Yep, that's a Munchlax distress wail. Tensai Jr. moves the gear toward the direction of the sound, and there is, in the distance, a Puchi in a pear tree. And a classy Espeon at the base of the tree, watching the Munchlax hanging onto a branch with satisfaction. He's been eating all the apples in the House, she had to do something about it, right?]

What the hell--?!

[And now you see Marui running toward that tree. This is where Tensai Jr. decides to stop the video, but anyone at the Tennis House can witness Marui climbing up that tree to get his poor starter down, and yelling at Lady to get them both down because guess who's keeping the two of them up there?]



ooc; Lady and Sobesa used with permission from their owners o3o/

[when the video feed turns on, there’s a hassle in the background, a burst of flame, some frantic jabbering in the background. a dark-skinned lad with a worried expression gestures at a sleepy camel in tow. the camel sneezes. there is fire. the Mom, her expression pleasant, is reaching for a broom. his voice filters through the speakers, frantic--]

But ma’am, you don’t understand! The camel, it’s sneezing fire! Is it allergies? No, shouldn’t this violate some kind of a safety hazard--?

[meanwhile, in the background, a redhead, smaller than the tanned kid, is fussing about, opening drawers, peeking in cabinets, turning over jars and looking underneath various furniture. he’s followed around by a tiny, fat, blue thing, picking up discarded items, sniffing at them and checking if they’re edible, then hiding them in its furry skirt-thing. they’re both not paying any attention to the flaming camel. why? because there is something much more important to do.]

Oi, Jackal, stop bothering Mom about the camel and help me find marshmallows. We can totally roast them every time that thing sneezes!

[the dark-skinned lad double-takes, makes a choking sort of sound, and turns to his companion. Mom is smiling.]

Bunta, what are you-- [a sudden, angry, scraping sound, the texture of a broom across a countertop, and Jackal throws up his arms, eyes wide] No, ma’am, please, put down that broom! Ma’am--

Uh oh, trouble!

You think?! Door, door, door--

[the roar of a mother, reclaiming her kitchen, because some things are universal. the broom swings through the air. the video catches the tail end of two teenagers, a camel and a … furry bear cub thing as they careen out the door, the redhead victorious with a jar of cookies tucked under his arm like a trophy (a soft echo of ‘dou, tensai-teki?’ in his wake.)]

OUT. Out, out, out, out, out--

[aaaaand feed cuts]
