10.5 - [Video, in Poke-speak]

[When the feed clicks on, a serpentine body is obscuring most of the camera’s view. There’s a curious peep a split-second later, and then Huzar the Dragonair is leaning back to stare at the Warp Band, head tilted slightly to the side.]

Did we do it? Is it going?

[Blossom, a dainty-looking Leafeon, pads a little bit closer.]

It’s making the noise and the light. That must mean its awake and we can talk to it.

Okay!

[Huzar beams, but quickly grows more serious, wrapping herself into a coil and narrowing her eyes. Like her trainer, she’s the sort to cut to the chase without much in the way of preamble, or basic etiquette.]

The thing is, we’re worried our mom and dad are trying to replace us.

You see, everyone keeps telling us that humans don’t lay eggs, but that makes no sense. Our dads had us from eggs. And now...

[Blossom sounds positively ominous, and she is pacing back and forth before the camera like the Bad Cop questioning a particularily reluctant miscreant.]

They’ve been acting weird and wanting all this time alone, and now look!

[In a flash, Huzar uncoils and disappears, only to return with an egg rolling in front of her.]

See?! We told you!

And now they’re alone again, and we’re not babies you know. We know that it’s a mating thing. So does that mean there’s going to be even more?

[Look, she loves her family, but just how many other pokémon is she supposed to share Fai with, exactly? What if he completely forgets about her after a while?]

[ Oh, sorry, sorry! Uh......Eevee thinks. He does want to help. Hm. Deep breaths, maybe? And just think about how much your Trainer does love you? Love isn't something that can be all used up, he doesn't think. There's always more to go around. ] Vee, vee. Eevee!

[ Oh. Eevee hadn't thought of that. Maybe there is something special about raising a baby from an egg that makes it a little bit different? His Trainer's Special Human has a baby that is still mostly egg, and she gets so much love and attention all of the time...

...though that doesn't help, does it. Is there anything he can do to help? ]
Eevee vee. Eevee.

Vee.

[ That answer is so emphatic it even comes with flattened ears. No thank you.

But after that he looks contrite. That was mean. He's sorry. ]

[ Consider Eevee appropriately chastized - both by you and his gall at his own cheek. Is he really that worried about all the eggs? He doesn't want to be. Life is more fun with more people around, right? And they have a plan....

So....everything is going to be okay? ]
Eevee ee.

Ee. [ Worrying isn't going to fix things, though! How he wishes he could make this better.

What if you showed interest in looking after the eggs? Then you and your Trainer would have something in common. ]
Eevee.

Eevee? [ That would depend on the kind of Pokémon that hatched from it, wouldn't it?

If you need someone to look after you, though, he might be willing to help. Eevee feels so lost without others to assist. ]

[ He's sure your Trainer will! You're such a lovely Pokémon. You should go be with them and maybe that will make you feel better! Remind them you're around! And he'll do the same for his brand-new Trainer too! They won't lose to eggs! ] Vee!
actsmagnificent: (happy)

[ Eevee waves a paw in farewell, pleased. Did he just do a good thing?? ]
