second road ( action | video )
( i: action; all around union )
[ meet Teasel, everyone - the new addition to the Baggins household, and a right royal pest. first it was Bilbo's spoons. then anything else in the house that was shiny and not nailed down. by this point, she's built a nice little overly shiny nest for herself, and you'd think that would be a good place to stop, locked in an eternal tug-of-war with her Trainer of put those back right now and finding new and more out-of-reach places to construct her nest of bling.
except no, instead she's taken to places further afield for feeding her shiny addiction. "places further afield" being "anywhere and everywhere in Union, nevermind whether or not the shiny things are junk or if they actually belong to someone else."
she's trying to be stealthy about it, for the most part. she doesn't want her fussy Trainer catching on to what she's up to, after all. but some of those shiny things are just too good to resist even if it means thieving a little bit more... well, publicly.
Union, you may or may not find items of yours suddenly missing, or catch a Murkrow shamelessly fleeing the scene of the crime! what do. ]
( ii: video; forward dated a few days )
[ if Bilbo looks stressed in the warp band feed, that might be because he is. his face is in a deep-set frown, and he gives a deep sigh right before he starts speaking. ]
I think I owe quite a few people an apology for a certain somebody's antics over the past few days. [ he glares at something or someone off-screen before adjusting the warp band to reveal... well, a sizeable collection of shiny odds and ends piled on his kitchen table. ] Listen, I - I honestly have no idea who all of these things belong to, let alone how I'm supposed to return them, but if you do recognise anything, please, please let me know so I can get it back to its rightful owner. Again, I'm dreadfully sorry about all this. Won't happen again if I can help it.
[ at that, there's a sullen and only very slightly repentant cawing from off-screen... followed by the sound of breaking pottery, and the continued sound of squawking as Bilbo whirls around in its direction that almost sounds... melodic????. ]
--Teasel! That was my mother's best china, it was over a hundred years ol-- [ abruptly, he seems to remember that he's still recording, and with an effort of will breathes in through his nose before saying in clipped tones: ] Excuse me.
(( ooc: feel free to say that your character has lost a shiny thing and had it stolen by Teasel, or we can also action-thread it if you like! thefts will have been happening from ~9th march onwards. ))

[Action]
she tilts her head, considering. yessss, this would look nice hanging off one of the spoons...!
slowly, she begins to hop closer, taking advantage of the distraction the other two pokemon are causing. juuuuust a little closer... ]
[Action]
Noibat! Noi!
[Halt villain! Nevermind that trainer is distracted! What business have you!]
[Action]
Krow?
[ nothing? in fact, she will just be on her way--
-- and with that, she changes tactics and leaps forward, catching the necklace chain in her beak and attempting a daring take-off! ]
Re: [Action]
HOW DARE YOU, BRIGAND!!]
B-Bereth? [Yukiko covers her ears and looks back, wondering about the noise and she sees the Murkrow taking off with the locket!]
Hey! You come back here!
[And she dives for Teasel! Going for it!]
[Action]
[ not a chance! she swerves, trying to dodge Yukiko, and has to overcompensate just to stay airborne, flapping her wings frantically and losing some of her forward momentum. not as planned, not as planned! ]
[Action]
[And with a shriek, the dragon bat is airborne, flapping his wings to go on the offensive! It's a shame he lacks a lasso, but there's something to be said about being about to evolve into a gigantic bat-wyvern...]
SKREEEEE!!!!
[Noibat uses Pursuit!]
[Action]
which might end up being the case if she's not careful, actually. with not enough time to have completely recovered her full speed, she's caught off-guard by the Noibat's sudden burst of speed and doesn't quite manage to dodge entirely. with a loud squawk, Teasel is knocked off-balance by the offensive and sent spinning downward into an uncontrolled dive! ]
[Action]
[Action]
[Action]
That's not yours.
[And then she sets the bird down on the ground.]
Sorry, but I can't let you take that.
[Action]
K-krow?
[ what are you talking about. in true birb fashion, it's all hers everything is hers. ]
[Action]
[She's on to you, and she's not stupid. Her fingertip extends, and a pin-sized ball of fire starts to dance along the end of it.]
If you're hurt, I'll take care of it. But if you steal my locket, I'll roast you, got it?
[Action]
well, the prospect of imminent roasting has her changing her tune quickly, at least? she hops back a step when the fire appears. Teasel knows when she's beat, man. even if she does seem to be low-key sulking about it as she lets out a sullen croak of agreement to Yukiko's terms. ]
[Action]
[Her other hand extends, a ball of sunlight glowing there, and...indeed it is a Morning Sun!]
All better?
