☆33☆ [Video]

[Today, from the 'gear of a certain lazy mage, comes a video feed of... well, the interior of a bag, actually. Turns out a certain Umbreon is poking around in there for something and accidentally turned it on. ...Seems pretty intent on finding whatever it is, too.

"Jiggly?" From somewhere behind him as he keeps digging around, a Jigglypuff asks if he's found it yet.

"Bre, 'breon." The Umbreon responds that he's looking, but he hasn't found it quite yet. It's only a matter of time though.

"Jigglypuff." It didn't look like there was that much stuff in there to dig through...

"Umbreon." Well then, you dig for it if you think it's that easy, Kaile.

"Puff~" Naah, he'll leave it to you, Jiji~

There's some more digging around in the bag, the camera's angle getting jarred several times as it's bumped into without any care. Eventually, though, with a triumphant "Breon!" Jiji grabs onto something with his teeth and pulls out... a moon stone? Who knew one of those was in there...

Suddenly, though, he looks up, stone still in his mouth, as from the side somewhere, there is a sudden cry of "REEP!", the distinct sound of crackling electricity, and...]

Gaaah!!

[...the surprised cry of a certain lazy mage who might have just realized there was an electric sheep in his bed a split second too late to avoid being zapped.]

...O-Oi, you're not supposed to be in my pillows...

[...well, either way, Jiji's going to trot off now with the stone, stepping on the bag again in the process and turning off the feed.]

It's still a pain to try to sleep when you're in danger of being shocked, you know.

[dreamsofahero]

Well, perhaps you shouldn't be so quick to take a nap, then.

[tearsofademon]

Oh? Is this another one of your evil plots to rid the world of naps once and for all?

[dreamsofahero]

Not at all. I certainly had nothing to do with Fen ending up there, anyway.

[tearsofademon]

I'm sure you didn't.

[This is definitely the tone of someone who believes that, yes.]

[dreamsofahero]

They all have minds of their own, you know.... like those two of yours over there absconding with something from your bag.

[tearsofademon]

Ah... wonder what they want with that.

[and then the Jigglypuff used the stone to evolve into a Wigglytuff while the Umbreon looked on. Guess that answers that...]

[dreamsofahero]

*....oh hey this is possibly the first time Sion's actually seen a pokemon evolve. don't mind him while he stares a bit.....*

[tearsofademon]

[Well, there's a first time for everything. Ryner's kind of used to it by now, so...]

Congratulations, Kaile.

["Wigglytuff~"]

[dreamsofahero]

*Ryner should enjoy seeing Sion looking surprised while he can*

So that's what happens...?

[tearsofademon]

Yeah, that's what happens when a Pokémon evolves. Can't say I've ever seen it triggered like that before, though...

[dreamsofahero]

Oh?

[tearsofademon]

Yeah. I mean, for most of them, when it's happened it's been because they've trained hard enough. And for a few of them, like when Rose did... ah, I'm not entirely sure, but I think they just sort of knew they were ready? But using that stone I found in the Ruins a while back...

...actually, I wonder if that's why Rose never wanted to touch it...

[dreamsofahero]

So the stone affects them somehow...

[tearsofademon]

Probably something like that.

[dreamsofahero]

It's amazing that they can just change in an instant like that, though.

[tearsofademon]

It is, isn't it? And most of them do, too, one way or another.

[dreamsofahero]

It seems so strange, but so do many of the things that are apparently normal here...

[tearsofademon]

Guess I'm kind of used to most of it, since I've been here as long as I have...

[dreamsofahero]

I suppose. It's hard to imagine right now, though.

[tearsofademon]

You just haven't been here long enough yet.

[dreamsofahero]

Maybe...

Though I don't know if that's more or less strange than being without magic here.

[tearsofademon]

Ah... Yeah, can't say I'm completely used to that yet either. Being able to at least cast a barrier would be really helpful sometimes...

[dreamsofahero]

*nods*

Even though I don't have much need to make use of it normally, it's strange not to at least be aware of it. Your Alpha Stigma is similarly affected, then?

[tearsofademon]

Yeah. It's been sealed ever since I got here.

["Clef?" And Rose looks up from her spot on the desk, where she's been amusing herself by doodling on a piece of paper. ...Yeah, Ryner might not have actually mentioned that term in her earshot before...]
