1st Piece // New Bark Town // Video to Voice

[A buzz of noise comes through the PokéGear, cutting off just as fast but bringing attention to the confused face on the screen, the gray sky behind his head. He moves the view and fingers show, playing with the device before the screen goes black. Any attempts to bring it back will be ignored.

A good few hours later, there's a call from the same source- this time without a face. A dash of static threatens to cut out again, before a voice comes through. Soft, distracted, but calm.]


-hello. Could I speak to a "breeder"?

I just arrived - here - earlier today. I've already found out we can't go back... But I can't pick where to go now, just by these books. That is- how to get started, with breeding. And the walk- Does this bag really have all I'll need to get to the next stop?

[There's the sound of soft flipping, and then a quiet mumble, nearly drowned out by the hissing wind.]

It looks like a long way, with just the two of us...

[A louder thump, and volume pick up.]

And, actually- anyone with advice on taking that road in the snow? I haven't found any matches or anything.

[Looking at his own Gear, he hears the familiar voice, his hand begins to shake. Flipping open the cover, his fear is confirmed. Last he knew, they were all trapped within Leviathan and next he knew he woke up in some strange house with an even stranger woman that called herself his "mom" and handed him his backpack.]

...Yuugi?

[Crap! This is really awkward.]

Uh...well, you're not exactly unknown.

Good, he doesn't recognize me. We can start over right. Right? That's gotta be it.

Your gramps owned a game shop right?

[He'll recall the obvious details. The rest will have to come when they're on better terms...maybe.]

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-07 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's a long story. You said you're lookin' for a breeder, right? Looks like I've been assigned that accordin' to this book. Don't know why and I got m'self a furball.

Guess there's no sense dwellin' on stuff at this time. We gotta look at the matter at hand. Geez, do you always gotta be paranoid?

[He's talking more about himself than about Yuugi at this point. Even Varon thinks this is all weird.]
last_to_kneel: (concerned)

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-07 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
Seriously?

[Varon looks a bit worried. It's not unusual for him to wear his emotions on his sleeve and sometimes he's a bit too honest. He lets his tone convey his concern.]

Let's see what you got.

[Varon's Eevee pokes her head up to sniff at the Gear and tries to lick Yuugi from the screen.]

Zipper...stop that now.

[He never understood why these creatures needed to be in those tight looking balls.]

Maybe the li'l bloke's hungry.
last_to_kneel: (Aw how cute! It's a toy hammer!)

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-07 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Varon's wide blue eyes widened just a bit more and Zipper tilts her head with a purring chirp.]

Huh. He's tiny. You might wanna make sure that he starts off with somethin' balanced...like wheat crackers to settle him but they'll have to be in tiny pieces. Don't know if it's got teeth yet. Gotta admit though, it's pretty cute.

[He's trying not to gush but it's already seen on his face he thinks that Togepi is absolutely adorable. Zipper starts her chirping at Togepi as if she's talking to the tiny Pokémon.]
last_to_kneel: (Come again?)

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-07 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
[He watches for a bit as Togepi and Zipper attempt at communicating and Zipper paws at the Gear to get Varon's attention to lower it a bit more. He gently obliges but keeps it an angle where he could still Yuugi.]

Yours is still a baby, like Zipper here. She's an Eevee. Accordin' to what I learned, she's got a long while yet before she can evolve. That's what the book said anyway.

I'm guessin' that you're still tryin' to figure out your place in all this. I barely know myself. If it wasn't for the wallabies back home, I probably'd be pretty lost m'self.

Best rule of thumb, if yours don't like what you give it, it's probably not the best for it, you know. A li'l trial and error never hurts and sometimes they follow your example.
last_to_kneel: (I have some time to kill.)

[video]

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-07 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's the same with me for now. Zipper's a handful by herself.

[How he figured out that part, well, Varon's not afraid of a little hand's on approach to animals of any kind.]

I'm thinkin' that a li'l travel never hurts the soul any. Maybe I'll learn more out there than I'll pick up from any book. Ah, you know, I just realized you don't know my name. I'm Varon. Nice meetin' ya.

[His Eevee pops up into Varon's shoulders and coos at the screen, her tail wrapping around his neck for balance.]
last_to_kneel: (Heh it's fun anyway)

[video]

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-07 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
I'd like that.

[Maybe it's not so bad starting over. It's now moving forward in a strange world that's going to be challenging but his Eevee has certainly made her way into his emotional armor.]

Zipper likes that idea too.

[She's rubbing her face with his and purring with delight.]

Oy, I know, you wanna meet your new friend, huh.

[She squeaks happily.]
last_to_kneel: (looking over his shoulder)

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-08 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Ace! I'll do the same. Right now, I gotta get my pack in order. Later!

[Just then, Miss Mom comes into the room to call Varon's name.]

Yeah, yeah, I know. I'll get it do-

[-click-]
last_to_kneel: (Not interested)

[His video comes back on to show Varon putting on his sweater and his Eevee is jumping up and down on the bed which restarted the feed.]

I know, I know. You're excited about the trip. In a minute.
last_to_kneel: (calm surprise)

[re-video]

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-08 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Eee! eee!

[Zipper chirps in response during her jumping which is causing the video to become dizzying from the movement of the bed.]

I know, I know.

[His eyes look to the Gear and sees the light blinking.]

Oh man!

[He picks it up.]

So sorry, mate. I didn't think it came back on. I'm headin' out in a few.
last_to_kneel: (calm smile)

[re-video]

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-08 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be leavin' in a few. I'll meet you there. I gotta talk to the Prof about somethin' anyway.

[Zipper starts running in circles chasing her tail, catches it and rolls onto her back and licking it.]

I think...she needs a check-up.
last_to_kneel: (Come again?)

[re-video]

[personal profile] last_to_kneel 2012-02-08 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[He gives Zipper a pat on the head and she chirps in response.]

Well, I wanna make sure she's good for the trip. I need to stop in to talk to the prof anyway for some info on hardcopy. I'm not big on usin' devices.
