Pantsu part 4 [Video/Action]

[underwearfortomorrow]

[It's been an interesting few days at the Shrine. He did not expect the levels of shenanigans he got for bringing home one injured Pokemon. Said injured Pokemon is the reason he's making this post right now. He appears on the feed looking mighty exasperated.]

Ah-sorry to bother everyone, but I'm looking for some advice.

I ah- is anyone on this network by chance a shifter who started out as a Pokemon first, rather than a human? Or maybe knows someone who is?

[He scratches at his hair.]

I ...brought home an injured Pokemon I found in the forest a few days ago and he turned out to be a shifter- only he doesn't seem to have very good control over either of his forms- [Eiji is quickly cut off by a louder, courser voice behind him. He smacks Eiji in the back of the head.]

--Oi, who are you to say I don't have control? I know exactly what I'm doing, I'm just not interested in adhering to your human customs.

[Wow, was that really neccesary? Eiji rubs the back of his head and gives him such a glower.]

If you did, I doubt you'd still be in Union at all. If we can find someone to help, then you could go back to living in the forest and not have to worry about losing your form!

[Which is half the reason, really. He kind of hopes he could find someone willing to talk to Ankh and help him adjust to actually being a shifter. As someone who's gone through it. He shakes his head finally and looks at the warp band.]

Anyway... I would be in your debt if anyone could help us. [He nods and turns the feed off.]

[He bristles, puffing up to try and look bigger (it fails miserably).]

What do you know?? You're the one that brought me here, anyway!

[underwearfortomorrow]

[You are not even a little bit intimidating, Ankh. He met you when you were like six inches tall.]

I brought you here because you were injured and needed to recover! That has nothing to do with this.

[tsunbird]

[That has nothing to do with anything and you know it!!]

And my Shifting is none of your business!

[underwearfortomorrow]

It is while you're staying at the Shrine!

[tsunbird]

[He just squawks at that.]

[underwearfortomorrow]

[sQUAWKS BACK AT HIM.]

[tsunbird]

[That--]

[That was not what he was expecting at all. So he's startled for a minute there, and then just squares his shoulders and squawks again.]

[underwearfortomorrow]

[These two are going to get into a squawking match aren't they.]

[At least until someone else in the shrine hits them.]

[tsunbird]

[He huffs, just staring, and still looking marginally startled.]

Why is this bothering you so much? It doesn't even affect you!

[underwearfortomorrow]

Because it obviously bothers you! You're stuck here in Union until you can figure it out but you have no interest in actually learning to fit into the way things work here.

[His tone softens up]

Which is fine- really. I'd be a hypocrit if I were to tell you you had to fit into Union society. I want to help you so you can actually make that decision instead of just being trapped here.

[tsunbird]

[He doesn't. Know what to do with that. And because he's not used to having an expressive face, he's betrayed by emotions that contort his features in confusion first, then irritation, then a sort of mollified annoyance.]

[He scoffs, looking away from him possibly at his own feet.]

Tch. It's none of your damn business.

[underwearfortomorrow]

Like I said before, if you're staying in the Shrine, it's my business. You're just going to have to get used to it.

[He smiles.]

So look at it this way- the sooner you figure it out, the sooner I'll stop bothering you.

[tsunbird]

Well what if I stopped staying in the Shrine, then?

[He-- sounds bizarrely desperate with that inquiry. He very much Does Not know how to handle being worried over. He's quiet, for the most part, but sort of behaving like a caged animal. How does human care.]

[underwearfortomorrow]

[He had considered that question- and honestly figured Ankh stuck around because he had no where else to go that would give him free meals.]

I wouldn't stop you, if that's what you want.

[tsunbird]

[Huff!!]

W-- well. Well maybe I will, then! [He'd be away for all of a day, maybe two, before he came back hungry, to be honest.]
