Well hello everyone out there!

[There's a pretty girl on the screen all of a sudden.

Wait. It's hard to tell, but that's actually a dude in drag. Hopefully you have good perception-- if not? Kuranosuke's not going to correct anyone who mistakes him for a girl. He's got on make up, a lusciously full blonde wig, and pink from head to toe apart from his black miniskirt.

It looks like he's making this broadcast from the business district, and he's speaking with a girly lilt to his voice-- what, gotta act the part if you're dressed up, right?]

It's a pleasure to meet you all, I'm sure. Let's get down to business, shall we?

I'm looking for anyone who's interested in entering contests. You see, Pearls and I here-- Prrriii! -- aaare looking to offer our services as Pokémon Stylists.

If you need a consultation, or maybe just need a refresher course of your own, please feel free to contact me and we'll see if I can help you. I'm looking for a special kind of client... so don't think you'll get away with it on the first meeting!

Anyway, just look into contacting Kuranosuke Koibuchi, alright?

[Koibuchi, as in Son-of-the-politician Koibuchi. He has no shame.]

Toodles!

[With a sigh, Kuranosuke ends the transmission and looks over at his Togepi. Dropping the feminine voice, he shrugs.]

Well, let's hope we don't get anyone boring.

Kura-po, you think everyone's boring nowadays.

I'm not wrong! There's never anyone with the right style. Everyone's always talking and talking- but it's like no one cares about what they do! I need something new.

[Pearls just lets out her own exasperated sigh. What is she going to do with this boy?]

Your loss. Who knows when we'll sing something again? It's not like we do it for a living or anything. ♫

[Len seems to have cheered up. At least he's smiling now.]

Well, how about you just let me know when your next performance is, and I'll come be a good little friend and cheer you on?

We sing whenever we want! I wonder if there's any places we can actually perform in... I'll need a guitar--or better yet a keytar!

But in the meantime I could sing something right now. ♫

Really? You'd do that, just for little old me?

[ Hook, line, and sinker. Maybe. This guy's unpredictable... ]

I don't even mind if you don't play any instruments.

I have the most fun when I'm singing. ♫

[Unless people are insulting his voice.] What kind of song do you want? I know a ton. ♫

[Sweetie? She blushes a little.]

Oh, my name is Ami Mizuno, it's nice to meet you.

Oh. Then, yeah, we're about the same age. I'm a little older.

Well, it's a pretty nice day out, isn't it?

Why don't you sing me something nice to go with the weather?

And nice to meet you too, Ami!

What kind of pokémon do you train?

Huh! I never would have guessed.

Oh well, just means you'll be the luckier out of us when we're ancient like pops. [A SHRUG.]

I'm afraid I have a rather diverse group. Aurora my Luxio, Minnie my Hoothoot, and Socrates my Dratini are all those I'm bonded with at the moment.

Interesting! Minnie's such a cute name.

[He lets Pearls sit up and see the watch, and she gives a little wave.]

All I've got with me is Pearls here, so I'm impressed! I guess I've been slacking off, huh?

Minnie's name is short for Minerva, but she prefers Minnie. It is cute though.

Pearls is quite cute, though. I've only seen one other Togepi before.

Hmmm... Okay. You want something to go with the weather, huh? ♫

[Len does have to think on it for a bit first. But eventually, he's got it: Summer is Short, So Let's Fall in Love, Boys!! He's even doing a bunch of goofy pantomiming to go with it. When he's finished he's grinning and fixing his hair.]

How was that? ♫

Edited 2014-08-30 22:13 (UTC)

So what exactly does a Pokemon stylist do?

Passion...

[She thinks about that for a moment.]

Sounds like fun.

I've never been to a contest myself, what are they like?

[Fenris catches the human recording the message with such enthusiasm as he passes by. Thinking it's just another one of Union's lively inhabitants, he continues until the message finishes up and the oh-so-feminine voice from before is suddenly replaced with something very-much-masculine.

Please excuse this shiny Zorua as he stops walking past and stares very obviously, and very confusedly, at something he hasn't really encountered before. He knows of those who dress up as other genders, but he hasn't quite encountered anyone quite so...feminine before. At least when playing the part.]

[ Say hello to the gruffest lady you have ever seen. Has she been rolling in dirt? When was her last wash? Why is she wearing something that can only be called a potato sack and a helmet? There are a lot of questions. ]

Why would Pokemon need styling?

[Kuranosuke listens, wide-eyed.

It's still a peculiar sound... but man. He's never heard anything like it.]

Jeez, you're really stinkin' fast!

[...Oh wait, right, he's supposed to talk like a pretty girl. Back to that voice--]

That was amazing! I've never heard anything like it! Tell me, do you sing alone?

[What he's not thinking of opportunities to dress up an aspiring band what are you talking about]

[Len doesn't even notice the change mannerism. It's totally normal as far as he's concerned!]

Thanks. Being an android means I can sing as fast as I want! ♫ [He's grinning cheerfully now, enjoying the little boost in confidence a successful performance brings.]

I sing alone sometimes, but I really like singing duets with my twin sister Rin. ♫

Is that so?

[Oh, he's intrigued. He's so intrigued. He can see their name in lights. Robot superstars. Things just fall into his lap.

Thank you savior.]

Tell me, is your twin sister just as adorable as you are?

[...Ohhh gross. Kuranosuke tries not to look disgusted but what on earth--]

Iiii'm gonna guess a lot of you don't get your pokémon groomed on the regular.

[He completely drops the girly voice for that.]

Don't call me adorable, I'm a man you know! Nobody will take me seriously if you do that. And for the record, nobody's cuter than Rin. That's why we make such a good team. ♫

[Of course the two of them are identical, so there isn't really an argument there.]

Edited 2014-09-01 01:41 (UTC)

[Kuranosuke's just going to stare for a moment, frowning.

Wait. Is that Zorua staring at him? Oh come on, he's obviously a shifter if he's something shiny, so what the hell--

Even if he's not, Kura's still gonna be a bit of a shit.]

Hey, buddy, you gonna ask for an autograph or something?

Kurapo...

...Kind of boring, sometimes.

[Kuranosuke sighs, looking annoyed. He didn't always feel this way.]

I mean, they're fun the first time. Maybe if people did something different every once in a while...
