So it looks like this whole evolution thing finally caught up with me as well. I told my parents about it. They were thrilled... well at least until they got a look at me. Apparently this isn't fairy enough for them. [He rolls his eyes because seriously? His hair is pink, sparkling and so long that it goes all the way to the ground. How much more fairy do they want? On the other hand his eyes have a soft red glow to them, making his ghost typing so much more apparent, which might the part his family disapproves of.]

The pokémon seem to like my new look though, especially Hugin. [The video feed pans down to reveal a murkrow burrowed into Yuui's hair, looking about as happy as a tepig in lava with the new state of his nest.] He's been there all day. Says it's far too soft and fluffy to leave.

And on the note of my hair, if anyone has any tips of hairstyles that will help keep this mess off the ground I would be very thankful. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to be able to stroll around in the wild otherwise.

[A couple of hours later]

Brief update for those interested. I have finally managed to untangle Hugin from my hair. Unfortunately my brother has decided to take his place. I'm not sure if this counts as an improvement or not.

Taking Out The Trash

[moemoetentacles]

Who: Squid Girl, Arietta, Absol, Chester, Apollo, Pamela, and Rise
Where: The ocean's shore and a cave full of Trubbish
When: April 29th
What: Cleaning up the ocean
Warnings: Two groups here - one keeping the Trubbish back while the other dams up the hole they're coming through.  Going with no particular thread order here, just to keep things running smoothly and so threads don't get bogged down.  Post when you can and we'll just work through it as we go.

It's been about a week since Squid Girl discovered the horrifying cave full of Trubbish that feeds into the ocean via underground river, periodically dumping walking bags of toxic waste into her natural habitat.  And naturally, as a proud denizen of the deep, she's decided to do something about it.  So today Squid Girl has returned with a crack squad of environmental freedom fighters - or just the first six people she could wrangle into helping with this plan.  Either one is good enough for her.

"Okay, shut your beaks and listen up!  We're here to save the ocean from getting even more cluttered up with these Trubbish suckers!  Through careful inkfiltration, I've located their secret base in a cave not far from here!  We'll split into two teams - one team will go into the cave and make sure no more Trubbish come through, and the other team will dive underwater to dam up the hole they're coming through!  I have prepared lumber from the Verdant Forest and tools from the city for us to use.  It won't be easy, but we're doing somefin gilly important here - somefin that will be remembered by generations of Water Pokemon to come!  So what are you all waiting for?  Let's get kraken!"

[Anders is sitting in a small clearing in the forest right outside Union, his back up against a tree. He's fairly relaxed, and noticeably so for those who know him from working at the Medical Center, as that's more than rare for him. He's even smiling a little.

Wow.]

I've left my job at the Medical Center, and I'll be working as a Field Medic from now on instead. I'm going to spend at least this week training, but if anyone is planning an exploration soon and would like a Medic along, let me know.

Queen Cleo would like to help out as well. Wouldn't you?

[He turns the warp band to show a tiny Espurr, who appears much too busy licking berry juice off her paws to pay much attention. She glances up, though, briefly, making a small annoyed noise as if to say, did he have to do this in the middle of lunch?

Anders turns the warp band back on himself.]

She means she'd be happy to help. Just let us know.

[[ooc: open to action to anyone in of Verdant Forest North.]]
