1st Tentacle - Action

[moemoetentacles]

[Anyone out and about in the streets of Union today will probably see a rather strange looking girl with tentacles for hair, walking along and looking rather carefree as she talks to the Tympole she's carrying along with her in a fishbowl, held securely by two of those tentacles as she swings her arms out to her sides.]

It's a good thing those earthquakes finally stopped, huh, Swimmy?  But that's what happens when humans go around poking their beaks where they don't belong!  I'd be squidding mad too if they put a bunch of big dumb machines down in the ocean.

[The Tympole hangs on her every word, nodding its head, its tail wagging back and forth in its bowl as she talks.]

I guess we'll put off the inkvasion for a squiddle bit longer.  I ink they've learned their lesson this time.

[This isn't a strange thing to hear out of this girl's mouth.  Ever since she washed up on the beach about a year ago as an Inkay Shifter, she's been going on and on about 'inkvasions' and how she's going to lead the Pokemon of the ocean to glorious victory over the humans.  In reality, she's been living in Union ever since and freeloading off a family who felt bad for her and took her in.  Not that that's stopped her from spouting off her silly rhetoric.]

So what do you want to eat for dinner tonight?  I'm in the mood for Corphish!

What about the Breeding Center or the Habitat?

[tm50]

I-I live at the Habitats.. you have a point, maybe I should ask for their aid as well..

[moemoetentacles]

Oh! Are you a Shifter too, then?

[tm50]

Y-Yes, yes I am.. [Hopefully this shifter is a little more competent than the last one he's meet.]

[moemoetentacles]

[Prepare to be disappointed on that count, Bertholdt.]

What kind? I'm an Inkay.

[tm50]

Cyndaquil.. It's wonderful to meet you. [DISAPPOINTED OR NO, it's always nice to meet more shifters.]

I was born human.. what about you?

[moemoetentacles]

I was born in the ocean.

[tm50]

So you were a Pokemon before becoming a human.. [What an experience.] I'm sure that was an experience, have you been a human for very long?

[moemoetentacles]

About a year, but I pretty much have the hang of it.

[tm50]

All within a year?! [Wow..] Impressive.

[moemoetentacles]

Humans aren't anyfin special.

[tm50]

No, no they really aren't ha..

[moemoetentacles]

So what do you do around here, anyway?

[tm50]

U-Um.. I'm part of the city guard..

[moemoetentacles]

...Gilly?

squid puns

[tm50]

N-No, "guard".. I patrol different areas of the city..

[moemoetentacles]

No, I mean... you? You seem a squiddle too nervous to be in the guard.

[tm50]

O-oh.. [Trust him, he believes you..]
When I was in school they recommended I change my major but being Enlightened made it easy.. I've always wanted to be a guard and eventually a ranger.. [That's not.. entirely true.] I-I hope to improve..

[moemoetentacles]

[Patting him on the shoulder with a tentacle.]

Keep trying!
