09. video/action for ecruteak

[shatterings]

[ Hey, it's Naminé again! Except... she looks a little--no, a lot--bewildered. When she woke up this morning, she'd been missing something very important. The next moment, she'd been here in Ecruteak City, a region over. That's what explains the very different backdrop--not the training center in Celadon, but rather, outside the Burned Tower.

It's a good thing her Vulpix is at her side, at least. It's a comfort--a small one, but it helps calm Naminé down. ]

I... didn't expect to appear here. Um, does this happen often, during these strange weekends?

action

[embezzling]

[ If a cat was scratching up a place HE owned, he might care a little more. Repairing it isn't his problem. Misery flops down by Stan's side, yawning and scretching while Naminé goes about battling and getting her gas ghost. She already has to deal with Merlin and would rather not level grind some more of them. She ain't about that life. ]

Nice! [ Stan's posture improves just barely once the ghost has been caught. He peers a bit at the ball from over his glasses. ] Ya know, I got a bunch of ghosts I'm gonna start experimenting with for breeding. I can give ya one or two if you're interested.

[ Whenever his Pokemon like each other enough to sit down and make the eggs appear. We're working on it. ]

You gonna name that?

action

[shatterings]

[ Despite her being here for several months, it still catches her off-guard whenever someone's slightly proud of her. ]

Oh! Are you sure--? I'm sure I can trade for something...

[ A nickname... hmm... ]

I think... Aurabelle.

action ;; he's so proud of his collection

[embezzling]

We could trade somethin' too. I prefer it in cash... [ He does have it in him to rip her off. Buuuut if she has something he wants... ] Depends on what you've got.

[ Misery resumes her ghost-sniffing, this time dragging her claws idly along the floor as she goes. No damage being done outside of what another lumbering creature with claws might do.

In the meantime, Stan counts on his fingers a list... ]

Lessee, I got Gastly, Duskull, Yamask, Pumpkaboo, Honedge, Spritzee, Eevee, Meowth, Natu...

action ;; protect grunkle stan

[shatterings]

Cash? I'm sure I could. [ Because you know. Everyone spoils Naminé to bits so she has a ton of pocket money... ]

Pumpkaboo! They're so cute... I wouldn't mind a Pumpkaboo, if that's alright with you.
