♃ - Second Strike

[thunderboltprincess]

Action
[If one is passing by the Council Hall, they will notice an adorable and pampered-looking Eevee standing on the steps. She is wearing a cute pink collar with the name of "HIME" emblazoned upon it, a bow sitting proudly behind her little head. When you get closer to her, she turns her big, soulful eyes on you and makes the most pathetic sounds.

If her coat wasn't so shiny and luxurious, you'd swear she was starving. But, really, feed her anyway.

Or, you know, try to find her trainer. Either one.]

Video
Uh, to everyone who ran into my Eevee, Hime, earlier, I'm sorry. She ran away while I was at school. If she conned food out of you, I can pay you back. And if she did something else, [Makoto sighs, knowing what trouble the adorable little Pokémon could get into] let me know and I'll pay you back for any damages.

[kitty responds with a squeak that's more noise than words, and....will probably start trying to climb up on Hime if she's not stopped.

The Corsola in the background is now running around with a Shinx lure bakery bag hanging off her spines.]

[thunderboltprincess]

[Hime sniffs disdainfully and moves away, down a step to get away from the kitten. Scram. It's not convincing to random trainers if she has company.

However, the smell of yummy food has her attention and she sniffs her way in the direction of this bakery bag.]

Eeve?

[incousinswithyou]

[too bad. Tiny kitty could've been a prop in this particular enterprise of yours. Either way, kitty follows along, mewing pitifully at you every other step. Hey! Hey, you! Hey!

Corsola looks around at all the noise and...! Oh! It's the baby she was supposed to be babysitting!!] Corsola! [kitty meeps in response!]

Sola..! Cor? [thank you, giant Corsola in the sky, for making sure her Trainer won't kill her for losing the baby. And huh. Where'd this brown Pokemon come from?]

[thunderboltprincess]

[Hime works alone and it works, but good try, little kitty. One day. As a spoiled pet, Hime is more than willing to ignore you as she tries to find someone else to feel sorry for her.

But food is very important.]

Ee eevee.

[She is Hime, the most beautiful of Eevees and you have food, therefore you are important. Don't you want to share?]

[incousinswithyou]

[sorry Hime, but this kitty is cutting in front of you to mew plaintively at her Corsola keeper. She's staaaaaarving, big sis!!]

Corsola! [don't worry, kiddo! You won't starve while she's around!!

Corsola pauses in the middle of her heroic speech and glances over at Hime.] Cor. [ya know, aren't you a little old to be begging?]

[thunderboltprincess]

[Hime narrows her big brown eyes. She hates being ignored and she definitely hates being lectured. Especially by things not even half as cute as she is.

She knows who your Trainer is, Corsola. Enjoy your freedom.]

Eevee.

[incousinswithyou]

[Corsola shakes her spikes, dislodging the bag and then pushes one of the treats towards the kitten. Kitty immediate stops squeaking and pounces on the (mildly squished) pokepuff.

Corsola turns to the Eevee, frowning.] Cor, corsola. [wha? What did you mean by that?]

[thunderboltprincess]

[Does she have to spell it out for you? You're obviously the thing supposed to be minding the kitten that was trying to steal her spotlight of cute. You lost it. She knows who your trainer is and doubts she'd be happy to learn you almost lost that Sphix. Just a hunch.]

Vee, eevee. Ee.

[incousinswithyou]

[the look Hime is getting from Corsola is...rather dramatic, to say the least. When Corsola finally manages to close her mouth and wrap her mind around that threat, she puffs up, spines bristling, and stands courageously between the snacking kitty and Hime.]

Cor! Sola!! Corsola! [y-you're evil!! Don't get near the evil Pokemon, kitty! It might rub off on you!!]

Solaaa...! [blackmail is wrong, evildoer!

Kitty is pretty oblivious to all this commotion.]

[thunderboltprincess]

[Hime doesn't care. Here's the thing. A Poképuff makes this all go away. And, you can take the Sphix and it's like it never happened.

She bats her big eyes to make her point.]

Eevee.

[incousinswithyou]

[Corsola stares at the other Pokemon in disbelief.] Corsola!!

[just what sort of Pokemon do you think she is?? She stands for truth, righteousness, and justice!! She is the Coral - ]

C-corsola! [a-and her name is Carol and she won't blacken it with the shame of dishonor!!]

[thunderboltprincess]

[That's on you, Carol the Corsola. Hime will just make sure your Trainer finds out.]

Vee.

[She sniffs and heads away. She can find all the Trainers if she tries.]
