3rd Meal | Video/Action
Video:
[The feed snaps on to reveal a concerned looking Goku, glancing behind him a few times before speaking. He seems to be in the Habitat.]
I think I might need a little help with this one.
[He turns the Warp Band, showing the image of his Volbeat. Sitting under a sprinkler and looking depressed. When the sprinkler stops, it picks itself up with great effort, lumbers over to another sprinkler, and sits underneath it, letting the water pour on it.]
He's been doing that all day. When one sprinkler stops, he just moves to the next. I think he's depressed. I tried talking to him, but all he does is look at me like he's about to die or something. I've never seen him so sad, I thought everything was going great! He's usually really happy... He doesn't train because he's way too concerned with going out on dates, and he's been going out on a ton of them! But I think the last girl he went on a date with really dropped it hard on him.
I don't get it. [He scratches his head in confusion.]
Action:
[The Volbeat in question is headed home after his 150th failed date. His little buggy hand slides across a wall as he drags himself home, bent over with sadness. He can't believe this happened again.
No girl wants to date a loser like him.
He starts eating some of the comfort food he'd taken from the date. He knew he'd need it.
The poor guy looks like he's had a bad night. He takes the wrapper of his food and chucks it behind him, not caring if it hit anyone or not. Bleh.]

action
Lass?
["Are you okay?"]
action
Oh! Yeah, he's fine, he's great! Yeah...
There's an air about him that suggests that no, not everything is fine and great.]
Vol! Volbeat.
action
Fr-fross?
["You don't look fine."]
action
[No, really! He's fine... he's... yeah well she's right he's not. He slumps a little. It's...this...are you sure you want to know because it's a little embarrassing and all...]
Beat...Volbeat.
Re: action
["Trust me, it can't be as embarrassing as what Martin's done lately."]
action
Vol-ol-olbeat. [Yeah? What'd he do? That's your trainer, right?]
action
So really, her first experience with Union has being stupidity. Nothing he's done could be that bad.]
action
Your trainer is really tough or really dumb. He and my trainer would get along really, really well.] Volbeat. Vol!
[He still scuffs his foot against the pavement. Well, see. I went on this date with this girl and...well...it didn't work out very well.] Beat...Volbeat Vol... [He spat it out. Gah. Now he feels dumb.]
action
...Fross?
[Do they usually work out? Or did you really like this girl or was she a jerk or...?]
action
She said I was boring.]
Volbeat.
action
Frosslass?
[Why did she say that?]
action
Vol! Volbeat, Volbeat Beat Vol Volbeat. Beat, Volbeat...
[And the little Volbeat will go on to tell Frosslass all about the fine arts of glue brands and what not to choose when gluing cards together unless she stops him.]
action
Fross. Fro-frosslass.
[Most people don't actually know or care that much about glue. That might be the problem.]
action
[The hand over his mouth is a surprise.]
[People really aren't that interested in glue?]
Volbeat...Vol. Beat, Volbeat?
action
Frosslass. Laaaaaaa.
[Really really. Or cards, unless you like playing card games. Any other hobbies?]
action
He really likes the ones that have the incorrect colors on them, he collects those.]
Volbeat! Vol Volbeat Vol.
action
[Nope, not a common hobby either. Do you read? Play sports? Train?]
action
Volbeat! Vol Volbeat.
action
Fross. Frosslaaaaaaaass.
[Not to most people. I think you're going have to really look to find an Illumise who is as...unique as you.]
action
Hm....this is mildly upsetting.
Do you think a girl would like it if we just flew around for a while? If uh...I didn't bore her...]
Vol...beat...
action
Fross! Frosslass!
[Possibly! Maybe get to know her while you fly around!
(Why is this her life how is this her life she just wants to write poetry dammit.)]
action
[That seems to cheer him up. That could totally work.]
[Should I tell her about how to professionally fold towels? Do you think she'd like that?] Beat, Volbeat?
action
[...Um. Why don't you ask the girl what she likes before you go on about it?]
action
Beat. Volbeat Volbeat Vol.
[He's hopeless.]
[Thanks! I was feeling really down in the dumps, but now I'm a lot better.] Vol Volbeat.
action
An Illumise who can
Put up with his crap.
She likes that one. She won't write it down, but she likes that one.]
Fross.
[You're welcome. Good luck!]
