009 [Video]

[When Pamela flicks on her warp band, she's sitting outside with Dahlia, her Lilligant, and Camellia, her Florges. She's got a big glass of water beside her and she seems to have set up a chair outside to enjoy the sun.]

I'm curious as to people's experiences with evolution. Do those of you find that your affinity with your elemental typing has increased as you have evolved? Are there any notable side effects?

[She pauses to have a sip of water, then continues.]

Inquiring minds want to know. Or this inquiring mind wants to know, anyhow.

VIDEO/ACTION

V I D E O

[Maya appears to be back in the Fey Manor today, surrounded by a crowd of happy ghosts. It's been a few days since she's been back from her spiritual training, but she's been busy getting re-acquainted with the city for the past few days.]

He-llo, Union! Sorry it's been a minute. I've been training!

But I'm back, now, which means you can take meditation lessons with me-- or I can help you with your ghost pokémon needs again. And of course, channelling is still on the table, too!

[as Shinrei snuggles up under her arm, Maya gives the gengar a headscritch with one of her dark, translucent ghosty arms.]

I've missed you guys a lot, so drop by and say hi if you can! Oh, and if anyone's moved here recently, um-- My name's Maya Fey! I'm the current leader of the House of Kurain channelling school in Ninetales Vale. Come by and see us if you can!

[This action is mostly for Pearl Fey, but it is taking place in a very public area and others are welcome to witness it.

A short time after Maya's transmission, she finds the warm weather a good opportunity to get herself outside for the day. This, of course, puts her in the path of Pearl's mother.

They've never had a good relationship. Pearl's mother, Morgan, has always wanted Pearl to be the leader of Kurain instead-- after all (according to Morgan), Maya's mother, Misty, stole that position from Morgan.

Since Maya's birth, Morgan has been bitter and somewhat cruel to Maya (and her sister) under the guise of good will and tradition, but Morgan's less than savory means of dealing with Maya have ended up with her in trouble at times. She still resides in the village of Kurain, but without much influence or freedom.

That doesn't stop her from raining on Maya's parades.

Maya now stands in front of the manor in the open training area, where guests are welcome, listening to Morgan speak about Pearl. Though she says very little and keeps on a smile, her discomfort is apparent; the wisps that dance around her are dim, her hair floats just slightly less, her glow is dull-- and she seems almost weighed down as compared to usual.]

Yes, I know, Auntie. Of course Pearl did great while I was gone...

1st Prank (or is it) Video | Action.

[So the feed on the Warp Band is a little fuzzy. There's a loud, obnoxious KROW and then some muffled shushing while the camera tries to adjust itself. Eventually what can be seen is a bespectacled teenager with a huge obnoxious bird sitting on his shoulder looking into the band skeptically.]

[He blinks after a moment and then gives a toothy grin.]

Oh man, I think it's working. I can't believe I missed so much. How long have we had video on these things? I'm so mad, I've been gone for practically a million years.

[His grin fades, as does his excitement.]

So uh. Hey, Union. None of you probably remember me but my name's John Egbert. I'm an actor at the Union Divine Theater and I've been out travelling for a while so I missed practically everything. Anyone wanna catch me up?

It's nice to be-- [And he's abruptly cut off by the Murkrow cawing loudly into the feed. John shoves him off his shoulder.] Holy shit, can you not do that for like four seconds!? Ugghh.

[The feed ends with him being comically put out while the bird seems to be flying around him cawing JUST TO BE OBNOXIOUS.]

[Locked to the Union Divine Theater]

[It's been a few days since he's been in town, but honestly? When he got back he went straight home, got crushed into a hug from his dad for three whole hours, went to sleep and THEN decided to come by the theater. It's been a long year and he's glad to be back honestly.]

[He pushes open the doors and looks around. He wonders who all is here now? How many new members have they gotten? He wondered if the Commander was going to chew him out for being like. seven months late with his report. Ah, well.]

[He's left Sprite- his Murkrow- with the habitat so trailing in after him is his Goomy. Anyone walking the theater will see a familiar (or unfamiliar) kid going through the papers and fliers sitting at the ticket counter.]

Oh no, I can't believe I missed that one! Augh. Wait, who did they get for the second lead....

[He seems very interested in what plays had gone on while he was gone.]
