Haa... Should've known. She only skipped last September 'cause of all the swarms, didn't she...

[The video shows a small pile of eggs, which a Carbink is hovering around, gently prodding with one of its ears in order to arrange them all just so.]

I have eggs for sale. Again. I'll add a list of what moves they should come with, I'm pretty sure I've got this down at this point... mostly, anyway...

...Ahh, also, has anyone around here dug a pond before? 'Cause I think that's gonna be the best thing for my Gyarados, not to mention the other fish, and I could use some pointers.

[about ten minutes after the video goes up, a list is attached to it. (There are still plenty of eggs available!)]
tearsofademon: (mon dieu above)
[The scene on the video is a filled bathtub, with a fish swimming around in it. Fairly contently, by the look of it, but given the amount of water that seems to have also made it outside the tub... there may have been a bit of a scuffle.]

...Y'know, it'd have been nice to have had a warning. Even if whoever it was wanted to keep the species secret. I get that. Surprises and stuff. Not something I'd bother with, but if that's your thing, more power to you.

But at least something saying "This egg contains a fish" would've been nice, don't you think? Would mean I would've been able to have some water handy. And I might've been able to plan around who was out where and when.

But then, I guess not everybody has a goddamn homicidal starfish to deal with, huh...

[...yes he hatched it late he's been busy okay he didn't want to be dealing with a baby on top of the business he's been dealing with]
tearsofademon: (I don't know if you would listen)
All right, question.

[Despite how it's mid-afternoon, Ryner is flopped on his bed, hugging a pillow. He does have a notebook in front of him, though, so maybe he hasn't been napping for once? The tiny top hat-wearing Joltik on his neck certainly is taking a cute little snooze, though.]

How do you help someone to get over something? I mean, obviously the way I deal with things isn't gonna work for her, otherwise it'd be fine already, but I don't really have any other ideas, and it's been over a year... I just want everybody to move on already. Is that really too much to ask?

[Before he can continue, though, there's the sound of a cat-like creature jumping onto the bed, and an Espeon quietly dropping a note in front of Ryner's head, which he picks up and reads.]

Ahh, Jiru? Wha--oh. Ahh, I guess it is that time of year, isn't it. Nice of her to write a note this time...

[He reaches up to scritch the Espeon, who gives a happy "Eo~on" of approval at the attention.]

Haaa, guess the other part is, I've got eggs for sale. Again. Cleffas and Eevees, by the look of it. Delivery's not a problem, so just give me a couple minutes, I'll write up the egg moves they've got...

[The feed ends here, but a few minutes later a text file is attached with egg moves and prices.

(As of the time of this writing, there are still plenty of Cleffa eggs available if anyone wants them!)]
tearsofademon: (when our tale was begun)
You know, I was actually kind of prepared, this time. Dunno whether that says more about me having been here too long so I know their schedule, or about them that they have a schedule in the first place.

[The video today is of a pile of eggs that are all sprawled out blankets and pillows and the like. A Clefairy is off in the background having what appears to be a staring contest with a Ditto, except that instead of just saying things, the Clefairy keeps repeating "fai... fai..." and the Ditto keeps correcting "di... di..." But surely that's not important, since the focus is on the eggs.]

Hell, why September and March, of all months? How regular it is makes you wonder if it's some kind of special reason for it, especially knowing Rose, but there isn't anything I can think of in either month, since that was November...

...Ahh, well, either way. I've got eggs for sale, again. I'll write up a list, and I think I've got the egg moves right, if Rose gave me the right parents anyway... I'll take care of delivery, no problem. Just want to see them get to good homes, y'know?

[Attached is a photo of the list. Shiny chance (which I will draw tomorrow) is not IC knowledge! But egg moves are. Also, there are still tons of eggs left if you want them!]
tearsofademon: (when our tale was begun)
I swear, they've got a schedule...

[So there's a certain lazy mage awkwardly sitting on a bed, surrounded by a small group of eggs. Four different species, by the look of it.]

Haa, so uh. Rose and the rest made eggs... again. Four Cleffas, an Igglybuff, two Eevees, and a Larvesta. Ah, and they all inherited some moves, if this book is right... I should probably write those down...

Anyway... P1000 should be good, right? And Gail and Lori can do deliveries in Johto anyway... It'd be nice if I could get them good homes, y'know? So, just let me know if you're interested.

[About twenty minutes later because Ryner is a slow typist, a text message follows it up, containing the available species and what moves they'll inherit.]

[[There are still two Cleffas left as of the time of this writing if anyone wants 'em!]]
tearsofademon: (the poor and downtrod)
Haa, this breeding thing is way overcomplicated...

[So a certain lazy mage is currently slumped over a table, leaning on top of an open book as though he's about to go to sleep on it. Which, knowing Ryner, he very well probably could.]

I mean, somehow I get the feeling Rose and the rest are gonna have more eggs next month - that's around the time they always do, for some reason - so I thought I'd actually read up on things this time and see what to expect and maybe point out if there's something I notice, y'know? Though, seriously, whatever they do is up to them, I'm staying out of it.

["Fairy~" From off-camera, a Clefairy sounds pleased with that. (...She also sounds like she has her mouth full, but.) At that, Ryner briefly smiles a tiny bit, but then it's replaced by mild grump again.]

But seriously. The egg groups kind of make sense, I guess, or at least the way they're sorted does, if we're going to assume that giant moles that are on fire and deer that have plants growing out of their antlers being able to mate without someone getting hurt makes sense, anyway. ...and I'm really, really glad that Gyarados aren't in the Field egg group, by the way. I think Ferris would find a way back here just to kill me if they were... well, anyway.

These egg move things, though? How do they even work? I mean, the lists seem really kind of arbitrary, y'know? How is it that Eevee has Wish as an egg move but Deerling doesn't? Why do Igglybuff and Cleffa get Present as an egg move, anyway? How come Snivy only gets Iron Tail through breeding and no other way? You'd think that one would come naturally to them, at least, what with evolving into giant snakes...

["Clef clefairy clef!"]

...Another one already, Rose? Seriously, where do you put it all... But fine, since it's a special occasion and everything.

[He picks up the 'gear, and the moving video briefly shows a shot of... dango boxes? At least five of them, all polished off and with their sticks stripped bare of any treats they previously had on them, as well as a very happy Clefairy sitting on the other side of the table from where Ryner had been seated.

Before he turns the video off, though...]


...Ahh, by the way. The eggs I got at the convention hatched. They're healthy and doing well. They're back at the room with Senna and Jehra right now, but... Well, just figured I'd mention how they're doing, anyway.
tearsofademon: (all my life I wonder)
Togepis don't take long at all to hatch, huh... Usually they take about a week, I've found, but this little guy only took about half that.

[Pictured on the video is a newborn Togepi, climbing up an Absol's back up to his head (with some assistance from a Wigglytuff and a Joltik) before sliding down his scythe-horn-thing like a slide and waddle-running around to do it again. It seems like they're having fun.

...Also, for those who are particularly familiar with Togepis, this one has a kind of reddish tint to it, and its spots are all the opposite color from what each usually would be. Also there might be a slight sparkle here or there when the light catches right. But that's surely nothing important...]


Jehra, Kaile, Glen, now this guy. Makes four of those eggs that just show up out of nowhere for everyone. Kinda have to wonder if there's some kind of reason behind them showing up, and for what comes out. Since people get different types and all.

[The Togepi accidentally loses his balance and falls off the Absol's horn rather higher up than is probably safe. The other three are immediately a little concerned (for good reason), but the Togepi just gets right up and happily waddle-runs back over to try again.]

...Ahh, well, either way. Guess I get to come up with a name for him now.
tearsofademon: (mon dieu above)
[VIDEO]

[Today, dear network, the 'gear is turned on not by its lazy mage owner, but instead by his Clefairy.

His Clefairy, who looks incredibly pleased with herself as she peers brightly into the camera.

"Clef clefairy fairy~" Look what everyone did~ It's not very long before she turns the camera toward a pile of eggs.

...A. Large. Pile of eggs. 40 of them... well, 39, discounting the one Eevee egg that's being rolled off and hidden under the bed by a certain Umbreon, but still. Lots of different types, too, by the look of it. o_o

Clearly, two certain someones are going to be thrilled when they get back to see all of this...]


[PHOTO about... half an hour later or so?]

[A bit later, there's a photo of a hand-written sign next to the pile of eggs, because hell if Ryner has the patience to attempt to type it out. At least the handwriting is legible?]

ExpandThe sign reads as follows. )

[[corresponding ooc post is here; there are still plenty of eggs available~ Ryner and Sion will both be tagging around.]]
tearsofademon: (the poor and downtrod)
Whyyyyyy can they never warn me before they do this...

[Today's video feed reveals rather quickly that the cause of a certain lazy mage's complaining this time... is a pile of several pink eggs and about half as many brown eggs, tended to by a Clefairy and Umbreon. They seem rather proud of themselves.]

...guess I might as well get it over with, anyway.

Cleffa eggs and Eevee eggs, that I'd like to send to good homes. P1000 each is probably good, right? Or just... talk to me and we can figure something out, if it's not. Erm, delivery shouldn't be a problem - if I know Gail and Lori, they're already itching to help out...

...ahh, this is such a pain.

[OOC interest post is here, and almost all spots are still available, so come, take an egg off his hands (and/or torment him relentlessly)!]
tearsofademon: (when our tale was begun)
[Oh hi, it's a video from a certain lazy mage. A certain lazy mage who looks kind of irritatedly tired, but then, this is pretty typical for him.]

This is really troublesome, you know... Haa, well, Rose had eggs again. And this time, Jehra and Ren did too, not that I have any idea how, since they're both male...

["Dit!"

"Puff?"]


...Anyway, I can't take care of them all, so... I guess what I'm trying to say is I'd like to sell them to people who can and want to take care of them. Er... P1000 should be a good price, I guess, right? I can go lower, though, if it's too much.

[The camera pans first to a small group of pink eggs with a Clefairy standing happily next to them. "Fairy!" she says with a wave.]

That's Rose. She's a Clefairy - her eggs will hatch into Cleffas, which aren't quite as developed, but I think they evolve because of happiness...? They're Normal types, but they're able to learn lots of different types of abilities through TMs and the like.

[Next, it showcases a small group of grey eggs. An Absol is curled around them protectively, though he's not looking at the camera. His expression might be one of... embarrassment?]

Then there's Jehra. He's an Absol, and I don't think they evolve. At least, he never has... Absols are Dark type, and they mostly fight with the blades on their head. I've heard something like they're said to bring disaster or something, but it's nothing like that.

[And then, a small group of red eggs, sitting on top of a curled up, sleeping Typhlosion.]

And Ren is a Typhlosion, but his eggs should hatch into Cyndaquils, which are really just a smaller version. He's a Fire type, and he... well, he knows how to use fire abilities, which I guess is probably obvious...

["Ras!" That would be a sneeze somewhere off camera, which causes Ryner to briefly pause to look, but he does return to his message.]

So... yeah. Delivery shouldn't be a problem - I'll ask Gail, he'll probably love another chance to get out and stretch his wings. If anyone's interested, please contact me, and... that's about it, really.

[ooc: Interest post was here. There's still one Cleffa unclaimed if anyone's interested!]
tearsofademon: (I see your face and wonder)
[Tonight's video feed comes courtesy of a certain Typhlosion (he just evolved recently) who's laying on his stomach, pawing at it a little for the sake of it. He looks like he's quite enjoying being a campfire at the moment.]

So, if the map is right, we should get there in within the next couple days.

[That would be the voice of a certain lazy mage, just off camera behind the aforementioned Typhlosion. The cheerful "Fairy!" that follows is probably not unexpected, really.]

Not that I really know what you'd do at the beach, but I'm sure you have some idea, since that's where you wanted to go...

["Clefairy clef." Oh dear partner, the Clefairy says off camera as the Typhlosion yawns.

It's about here where there's the sound of a Paras sneezing, and the Typhlosion looks up, obviously startled. It's certainly an odd sound to hear.]


Mmm? Aran, you okay?

["Par!" The Paras responds with a cheerful yes. Of course he's okay. The fact that some Stun Spore came out with that sneeze was perfectly normal, and there's nothing to worry about, even though this has happened several times now tonight.]

...Huh.

[But then that topic is interrupted, for there's the bright glow of an egg hatching that can somehow be sort of seen past the Typhlosion's flames, even better when he moves so as to better record this moment on the camera. Turns out that Ryner's been sitting up against a tree, with Rose cuddled on one side (has she let go of him at all since the whole asleep for a week thing? Also, is that an Aloe Vera plant?) and Jehra on the other, his position indicating that he had been keeping the egg warm up until this point.

Mr. Lazy Mage doesn't really flinch at the hatching at this point, since he's hatched several eggs by now, but he does blink when the child turns out to be...

"Natu!"

...a green ball of feathers. That is certainly not a Hoothoot, there. Point that he's learned - it's probably the mother that passes on the species. Useful to know, that.]


...So that's where Gail went.
tearsofademon: (call me a hopeless romantic)
[The video shows a certainly lazy mage, sitting on his bed, gently petting a Clefairy who’s curled up on his lap, sobbing into his clothes. …Also his face looks pretty heavily bruised, there, as though he’s been slapped a lot. Not that he seems particularly in pain, or if he is he’s hiding it pretty well.]

Haa… a week here, huh. That’s a new record, even for me.

[He says this cheerfully, but his expression softens into a somewhat regretful smile as the Clefairy in his lap lets forth another sob, one that’s pointedly unamused. “Clef.”]

…I guess I really worried you, didn’t I.

[“Cle-Clefairy clefair clef fairy fairy clef…” Her already-half-choked-up chatter is muffled a little by how buried she is in his clothing. She’d been so scared – so scared – because he wouldn’t wake up, no matter how much she used Wake-Up Slap which is supposed to be able to wake anyone up, and this went on for days, why wouldn’t he wake up?]

…Sorry, Rose. I didn’t mean to scare you like that.

[Rose stops sobbing for a moment to look up at Ryner in surprise – she’d been so sure he’d say something stupid about how she shouldn’t worry so much about him or something. (Which is on his mind, sure, but he’s trying to have tact here.) But after a moment, the tears take over again, and she buries her face even more in his clothes.

He just strokes her a bit more, he hopes calmingly.]


We’ll do something special to make up for it, all right? I mean, it’s too late tonight to go to the theater, but maybe – huh?

[And suddenly, at the window, there is the beating of wings, the scrambling of feathers, and a loud “’TOWL!” that announces that a certain Noctowl has returned from a couple day trip (that he decided to take seeing as Ryner wasn’t waking up any time soon at the time).

Gail is greeted by other voices in the room who are just off camera at the moment – an Absol, a Quilava, and a Paras, to be specific. (There's also a Yanma under the bed, but she's still in a bit of shock from being out of the PC for such a long stretch, so she's being quiet.) Rose tries to stop crying, at least, even if she doesn’t look up.

When he lands and registers that Ryner’s awake, Gail tilts his head and lets out a happy “Noctowl!” in happiness that Ryner is now awake.]


Ah, Gail! I guess you took a trip while I was out, huh.

[A nod from the Noctowl, who then maneuvers to take off the satchel he’s wearing and open it to display its contents: lots of fresh berries and plants and such, and… a Pokémon egg?

Yeah, um… guess who met a pretty wild female bird on his travels and had a… thing with her. He seems so proud of himself, too.

Ryner… is surprised, to say the least, but manages to not freak out.]


And you brought back your kid, I guess? Well, I hope it’s yours, anyway…

[A nod from Gail.]

…Well, I don’t see why not, I guess. Who am I to say no, right?
tearsofademon: (a happy pair of lovers)
[This video is being brought to you this fine Monday evening by a certain giggling Clefairy. The observant viewer might note that this is not taking place in a town, but instead on the road somewhere. ...Specifically, somewhere between Union Cave and Violet. The observant viewer who knows the owner of this Pokégear might note that this is different from where he has been for the last month-ish.

(Only three days to make it through Union Cave, thanks to Aran. That Paras has such a good sense of direction.)]


Oi! Jiji! Stop it already!

[So, an Igglybuff - with a kind of blank-ish smiling expression that just doesn't change - rolls past the camera, chased by an Eevee who thinks said Igglybuff is a toy or something, who in turn is being chased by a certain lazy mage. ...And now the other direction. ...And now back in the first direction. Said certain mage getting progressively more annoyed each time across.]

Jiji!! Kaile just hatched an hour ago! He's not a toy! Stop it! Ah, geeze! This is such a pain!!!!

["Sol..." That would be a yawning Absol off to the side of the camera who's trying to take a well-deserved snooze now and would like it to be a little quieter, thanks.

...It'll... probably be a while before Ryner manages to catch Jiji and Kaile and stop this. Feel free to point and laugh. Rose certainly is.]
tearsofademon: (when our tale was begun)
ExpandOff the network )

[It's a few minutes later before the video feed turns on, to show the aforementioned pile of pink eggs.]

All right, so... well. Rose laid some eggs, and I don't think I can take care of them all myself, and she seems to want me to sell them, so...

["Clefairy fairy!" And Rose pops up to remind Ryner that he should probably mention species information and the like.]

That's Rose, by the way. Clefairy is the evolved form - the eggs will hatch into Cleffas, which... well, they're similar, except smaller and not quite as developed yet. Normal type, but with the potential to learn lots of different kinds of attacks, I've noticed.

Anyway... P2000 each should be a good price, I guess, right? And no need to worry about delivery, either - Gail's agreed to do it, doesn't matter the distance. [The camera pans over to a Noctowl who's been sitting by the door, who with a "'Towl!" eagerly spreads his wings.]

So, if anyone's interested, please contact me, and... that's about it.

[[ooc: Interest post was here. Also, apologies in advance if tags are slow - notifications are hit and miss (usually miss) for some reason, and I'm admittedly a little distracted by my copy of White...]]

[Forward dated to around midnight]

ExpandCut for prose )

[On the off chance that someone happens to be up past midnight in the Goldenrod inn’s lounge or hallways or something and wants to stop and chat with him and his new Absol companion on the way back to their room, feel free. Otherwise, an actual network post will probably come tomorrow night…]
