[The image comes on and Minako's a lot happier than she seemed a little while ago with the egg in her backpack. That's because she's been playing with a baby Pokémon all week since the egg in question hatched, and it's been way more exciting than she thought it would be!]

Hey, everyone! I have an announcement to make!

[She holds up an almost week old Eevee for everyone to see.]

It's a boy!

[The Eevee looked just as excited and wiggled his forepaws at the video feed like he was waving.]

Vee!

[She giggled, getting some happy trills from the little Eevee before holding him back against her chest.]

His name is Eros and he's looking forward to meeting people!

[With that, she reached forward and turned off the feed.]

... Isn't that nickname kinda pervy? ♪

[what are you planning to do with this eevee young lady]

[child_of_luv]

Pervy? No way! Get your mind out of the gutter. Eros is noble name I found in a book based on the son of the Goddess of Love!

It's not pervy at all!

[roadroller]

Ehh? What goddess of love? I didn't think a thing like that existed. Just sounds like the word "ero" to me. ♪

[incousinswithyou]

[and here's another Eevee, peering curiously into a tilted Warp Band. Judging by the background and the splashing, this particular Eevee is at the Water level of the Habitat.]

Eee, vee vee! [hello, small one! You're more than welcome to accept her as senpai and/or great and rightful leader.]

[child_of_luv]

Vee?

[Oh, hey... that thing turned back on. He gave it a nudge with his nose.]

Vee! Ee vee. Eee!

[Hello? Are you inside there?]

[incousinswithyou]

Eeeveee, vee - [she was about to go on about how fluff up impressively, but that question catches her off guard.]

Vee, vee. Eeeevee....vee? [no, it doesn't work like that, silly! It uses...uh. Well, whatever! Humans use it to talk to other humans who are far away, alright?]

Video

[moemoetentacles]

[The video flicks on to reveal the close-up face of a small Vaporeon, mid-yawn. It pulls back afterward, a sort of lazy smile on its face as its tail serenely wags back and forth.]

Hey, Bubbles! Quit messing with that!

[Apparently he'd nudged Squid Girl's wrist to activate the band, having seen one of its kind on the other end of the broadcast.]

Re: Video

[child_of_luv]

Eee vee vee?

[What are you?]

Video

[moemoetentacles]

Vaporeon!

[It seems proud enough to announce that much, at least.]

Yeah, you wake up for other people, but never when I want you to.

[actsmagnificent]

[ ....there's some sort of Eeveedemic going around, because Haruka had only intended to glance at the screen and grin, happy for Minako. But her own Eevee had other ideas, and tries to leap up onto this table to greet the newcomer properly. ] Vee! Ee---

[ And that would be Eevee misjudging the landing, slipping on an open script, and falling off the table taking the Warp Band with him. Haruka sighs. It's not like he's a baby himself. How are basic motor skills this hard?? ]

Re: video

[child_of_luv]

[Minako heard the commotion and came back to peer into the feed.]

Hey... you figured out how to answer that pretty quick.

[She giggled a little.]

You okay over there?

Vee vee vee eee! [Don't fall and get hurt!]

[actsmagnificent]

Eeeeeeeee. [ He's okay! This happens all the time! A paw lifts in reassurance, and Eevee begins the slow flop back onto his stomach. Which of these is his front leg, again...?

There's another sigh, and then the padding sound of feet headed over to pick up the Warp Band. Whoever owns this Eevee has really hot ankles. ]

You'll give the viewers a stomachache. [ OH GOD IT'S HARUKA. ] Yo.

[video]

[brandnewshoes]

Aw, he's cute! Just like my Adol!

[Her Eevee -- who is a full-grown one -- hops onto Estelle's shoulder and peers down at the warp band. Estelle smiles back at the warp band, then nods.]

They like swimming. It gets all the energy out!

Re: [video]

[child_of_luv]

Swimming, huh?

[Ami liked swimming, too. Maybe she could teach Eros.]

I'll have to try that. Thanks.

[video]

[brandnewshoes]

Keep an eye on him, til he's used to it, but then he'll take right to it!

[bejustorbedead]

He's adorable.

[child_of_luv]

Thank you!

Did your egg hatch, too?

[video]

[inthenameofthemoon]

Minako Minako Minako lookie!

[ And like that, Usagi fixes her video feed so that it shows off a tiny little Espurr baby in her arms. It's got a little collar that has an adorable golden crescent moon underneath a tiny gold bell that jingles every time it moves.

Pinky is right next to them, playing with the Espurr's fluff. ]

Mine hatched too!

Re: [video]

[child_of_luv]

OH! That's a really cute one! Congratulations!

[Happy!]

We should have them meet!

[allergictoloveletters]

He's very cute, Minako. [Her Dratini is eager to look into the screen and smiles as he waves his tail at the Eevee.]

Oh, I would like to introduce you to Socrates, though he seems to have introduced himself.

[child_of_luv]

Wow. What kind of Pokémon is that?

[Eros waved a paw in return! And then his tail. Because he was curious and copying the Dratini's movements.]

[celebrity_commentator]

[A young beautiful dashing Espeon gazes into his adoptive mama's Warp Band. Whoa man. All these babies. And like half of them are the same species as him. Sort of.]

[Also hey, a human with his human's level of enthusiasm on this thing, that was interesting too. But still...whole lot of babies, man.]

[child_of_luv]

[Eevee tilts his head to look back at the Espeon. Hello, there.]

[makopunch]

What a cutie!

[Here is Makoto's beaming face...just for a moment, though, because she pulls back to reveal an adorable Eevee of her own. He's sitting in her lap, and she uses the hand supporting him under his forelegs to wave one of his little paws for him at the camera.]

I'm still thinking of a name for mine.

Vee!

[child_of_luv]

Vee! Eee vee!

[Hello there, friend!

Minako smiled and gave a little wave.]

He's cute, too!

{OOC: If you haven't thought of one, she should totally name him Jove. LOL}
