3rd flight [Video/ Action for anyone in Violet city]

[tookthename]

Hey guys, I know this is a bit late, this week has been super crazy, but I wanted to show off the latest addition to my team-

[The camera turns around to show a little Dratini sitting up, staring back at the camera.]

Say hi, Mar-Vell!

[The Dratini lets out a happy sound (a strange mix of a coo and a purr) before curling up into a ball, occasionally peaking out at the camera from behind his tail]

He hatched Thursday. I- [There's an indignant squawk and the camera turns once again to focus on a rather perturbed looking Pidgeotto]

I was getting to you! Geez. Boston evolved shortly before Mar-Vell hatched.

[The camera turns back to face Carol. She looks pretty relaxed, the most relaxed she's appeared on the network since she got here]

You know, aside from being kidnapped and brought here against my will, this place isn't too bad.

[This place isn't too bad... that was an understatement, for Vanille. She had freedom here. But, as she looks over the two Pokemon - she can't help but let out an excited gasp.]
Wow - Mar-Vell is so cute! But so is Boston!

Re: [video]

[tookthename]

[There's another squawk from off screen that roughly translates to 'Damn right I'm cute!' Carol just smiles and rolls her eyes at him.]

They are. Mar can pack quite a punch too, for just being out of his egg.

Name's Carol Danvers, by the way.

[hipstermark]

That's pretty common - most of my eggs have been strong, too...
[Pause.]
Oh! My name's Vanille! It's nice to meet you, Carol!

[tookthename]

He was my first one. I'm thinking about getting a few more.

That name sounds familiar. Do you know a guy named Hope?

[eagletalons]

Because they're all adorable, is that it?

[Says the man with a Poochyena at his feet.]

action

[tookthename]

That, and they're loyal and strong.

[She scratches the top of Boston's head. The bird leans into her touch and closes his eyes happily.]

But I've met some really good people here too. If time doesn't pass at home while we're here why not enjoy it? It's nice not having to save a city from crazy robots every other day.

[eagletalons]

[Well hmmm. Staying here indefinitely is one of the things he feels guilty about, because he doesn't want to leave. At all. So he latches onto something else for conversation.]

Crazy robots? You mean someone creates them and uses them to attack others?

Re: action

[tookthename]

Yeah. We're lucky if it's just some under-appreciated scientist with a bone to pick and Hydra credit card. What sucks is when Doom sends his little bots out to play. They're the biggest pain because Doom keeps upgrading them after ever attack.

[heartdive]

Told you so.

[tookthename]

I owe you. Your information took a lot off my shoulders.

[heartdive]

Heh heh. Any time. Seeing smiles on peoples' faces is much better than seeing frowns.

[lieutenantantichrist]

[The face that shows up has a scowl that etches every line down deep]

[His voice is full of venom]

You got a fishsnake. Isn't that nice for you.

[video]

[tookthename]

[And the venom is returned with sarcasm.]

It is pretty nice for me. He packs quite a punch for just hatching.

[video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

Great. He can help you stick your nose in things that're none of your business.

[video]

[tookthename]

Yeah, and he can help me stop grown men from punching much smaller women.

Grouchy Pidgettos seem like a recurring theme from what I've seen...

[Maybe it's just in their nature. Hard to say.]

But, if anything, I'd think of this place as a nice, extended vacation with occasional threats to everyone's safety sprinkled in.

Re: video

[tookthename]

He just doesn't like that I almost overshadowed his evolution.

[Impatient little cutie.]

Yeah, that's the way I've started looking at it.

video

[islandshore]

Ha. I think it's like kids and new, younger siblings. Always wrestling for attention.

[He may not have siblings, but he's had enough friendly competition with Sora to last a lifetime.]

And it's good that you've got that kind of positive outlook; means you'll have a way easier time getting by than the people who keep fighting to leave 24/7.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

It does grow on you.

This place, I mean.

_{[Of course, it also has a way of turning that around, the longer you stay. Johto is fickle.]}

[Video]

[tookthename]

It really does. Now that I know that time stops back at home while I'm here I don't feel like I'm abandoning anyone anymore.

[Well, the feeling isn't as strong anyways.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Yeah. ... I don't have anything back there to be doing, so that part doesn't matter so much to ME... but I know for lots of people, it's pretty important.

[neededlassie]

[SHAUN RECOGNIZES BOTH OF THOSE POKEMONS]

Oh cool, a Dratini and a Pidgeotto!

I like it here a whole lot too.

[tookthename]

[Wow. An actual small child in the pokemon world. Honestly Carol expected this encounter to happen much sooner.

She smiles]

Yeah, it's almost like a vacation.

What pokemon do you have?

[neededlassie]

A really cool vacation.

Oh, I've got lots. Well, not lots lots, but I've got nine! I have a Floatzel, a Pikachu, a Growlithe, a Mightyena, a Charizard, a Heracross, a Nidorino, a Marowak, and a Lapras!

[tookthename]

Wow, that is a lot. You must have been pretty busy with all of them.

How long have you been here?
