[The video starts pointing out the window, toward a yard where autumn-colored leaves are falling off the local trees. Ecruteak is great for that.]

So, we're halfway through October. It's been quiet so far, far as I know anyway. If things are going to be anything like the last few years, though, it's not gonna stay that way, so I guess this is kind of your friendly reminder not to go out alone this month. Not even for a five minute trip to the store, because you never know if a bunch of Duskulls and Shuppets are playing tug of war with a thing they shouldn't be for stupid reasons just around the corner.

[After a pause, he lets out a long sigh.]

That being said. Since you never know who's interested, and since some folks around this house still need to learn to let go of things that it'd be really nice to finally forget about...

[The camera view shifts to show that Ryner is standing... in the middle of a kitchen. And on the counter, there are a few bowls, a few containers of ingredients, a Yamask unsurely fiddling with a mini white board, and a Clefairy who looks very much like she does not want to be there.]

...Marian has agreed to teach everyone how to make dango. Anybody watching this, and me, and yes, you too, Rose.

["Fairy!" She is so very not pleased.]

Don't even try it today, this has gone on way too long and you know it. ...Well, anyway. Marian, whenever you're ready.

[he says as he puts the camera down where it has a good view of the whole counter. The Yamask trills cheerfully, and then pulls out and offers to Ryner... an apron. Mostly plain, though there's a little bit of lace at the bottom...

...He kind of stares at it for a moment.]


...Ahh, that's taking it a little too far, though. Why'd you even get that...?

And here's an OOC cut for some TL;DR on the cooking itself. )

[Once they're cooked, and put on skewers, and once Marian has happily written her final note that says "And that's how you do it! See? It's not hard at all!" Ryner offers Rose one of the skewers.]

Thanks, Marian. So, Rose. What do you think?

[She's notedly hesitant. Because on the one hand, dango is the best. But on the other, kitchens and Marian and her dear partner should not be involved with both of those combined.

...Eventually dango being the best wins out, and she takes the skewer and takes a small bite of the one on the end. And chews thoughtfully.

And then goes over to Marian's white board, grabs a pen of her own, and writes, "Its not as good as the stuff from the store." But it doesn't look like she dislikes it, either.]


...Ahh, well, if you're not spitting it out in disgust or anything, I guess it's not too bad for a first time, then, right?

[He'll just ignore the glare she's shooting him that screams "don't you even dare do this again Dear Partner" as he takes a stick to have himself, then grabs the camera to turn it off.]

[Anonymous Text]

I know what I am. I know I can't change that. But is it wrong to wish that I could? Is it wrong to want something to not go wrong for a change?

[Anyone up in Ecruteak in the wee hours of the night/morning, meanwhile, will find Ryner and Rose on a bench by the pond near the Bell Tower. If you come at around sunrise, they probably fell asleep together on the bench. ...No, not like that, you perverts.]
tearsofademon: (but you never can run)
Long prose background time!! :D )

[Text, about half an hour later]

What’s it like to have a family?

[If you want Ryner in person, he’s sitting under a tree in Azalea Town, knees bent partway up so he can lean forward on them, hand massaging his forehead, and generally looking pretty pale. Today has been an odd day, to put it nicely.]
tearsofademon: (you can feel them bewitch you)
A background nightmare that's tl;dr and no one probably cares about it )

Action in his room in the inn right after that also provides tl;dr background that no one probably cares about - you can pop in during this point if you'd like, but please specify if you do. )

[Today's video feed from Route 36 is being brought to you by Aran the Paras, who is sitting on a low branch of a nearby tree.]

So basically, magic is really just rearranging the flow of energy in the world in certain ways, in order to produce different phenomena. Like this...

[And he draws a pattern in the air. Unlike the last time he tried, however, his fingers leave behind visible trails, creating a glowing pattern in the air, kind of like a magic circle.]

What I seek is lightning... IZUCHI!

[And this time, something happens - a large bolt of lightning comes forth from the pattern of light, striking a conveniently placed boulder a short distance away.

"Clefairy!!" Rose applauds while jumping up and down excitedly. That was so amazing, dear partner!!

(Incidentally, there is a Darkrai and a Litwick standing a short distance behind them, who are also both applauding, impressed.)]


Heh... That one's not really all that difficult, but, well, I'm glad you liked it, anyway.

[Then Rose steps forward and -

"Clefairy clef clefair... Clefairy!"

- uses Magical Leaf on that same boulder. She then turns back to Ryner and, with a "Clefairy fairy!", asks if he can do something like that too, since he can shoot lightning and taught her Thunderbolt.]


Mmm? Can I do something like that? Ah, well, I don't know any spells like that, but I can see if I can make something, anyway. Let's see... It'd probably be Estabul-style, the way you do it...

[He draws another pattern in the air, this one like ribbons that circle around him.]

I offer up this contract, um, how about, to call upon a tornado of leaves!

[He's not very good at naming spells. (Or Pokémon, really.) But the basic point is there, and he's surrounded briefly by several glowing ellipsoid-like shapes, kind of like leaves, which he directs to twirl upward before colliding a distance above his head and explode into a sparkling firework.

It's not quite Magical Leaf, but Rose seems impressed, jumping up and down and chattering about how awesome that was.

One small thing of note, though... were his eyes glowing red when he casted that second spell?]
