[action, Residential District]
[Sometime in the early evening, there comes a brief rumble of footsteps from one of the towers in the shabbier part of the Residential District before the door bursts open and a small horde of Pokemon stampedes out.
This is shortly followed by a roiling cloud of smoke and a young teenaged boy carrying a pan of fire. ...It was probably a pan of something meant to be edible at some point, but now it's mostly just a pan of fire.
He lobs it as far away from them as possible the moment he makes it to relative safety, coughing and spluttering.]
Someone use Water Gun!
[Sentret, Teddiursa, Togetic, Drifloon, Purrloin, Bagon, Espeon, and Cottonee slowly turn to stare at their trainer.]
...I've got to make friends with a Water type.
[While he works on that, he takes off his oven mitts and begins to beat at the flames with them instead. Good thing cobblestone isn't flammable. ...Well. It's probably not.]
[video, public, much later]
Hi, everyone. ...Um.
It's been a while since everything that happened now. I hope everyone's been able to recover from their injuries - if you still need medical assistance for any reason, please come by the Medical Center. Or I'd be happy to come over and see you, too.
I guess I wanted to ask... what exactly was Sanctuary making and who... saw them? I didn't really understand too much of what was going on, but I feel like... we ought to be telling the Council how we feel about all of this, too, right? Won't they be taking some part in the decisions, too?

Oh!
N-Nothing, really! Just... making cookies.
[those aren't cookies anymore]
How's your night?
[better before the fire, probably]
no subject
~Hey, um, Right? Any ides regarding that?~ [Turnip points to the flaming pan with her foot. She's usually one for adventure and ingenuity. But when it comes to something that has type advantage against her? She's stumped, for once.]
Wha--Oh, yeah, uh... need some help putting that out?
no subject
[Around this point, the pan decides to spit out a charcoal briquette that might possibly have once been a cookie at high velocity into the sky.]
...Maybe if you have some time and if you don't mind.
[Some of Lucas's Pokemon friends sigh. The rest have vanished somewhere in the last few seconds.]
no subject
[And with that, Right pulls up his Warp Band. It only takes him a few moments to summon a Slowpoke by his side.] Osoi, this is Lucas. He needs our help putting that fire out.
[Osoi looks at Lucas, and slowly nods in greeting. The boy can easily sense that she's not mentally in the here and now, though.]
no subject
[It's a bit hard for him to pronounce, but -- ]
It's nice to meet you! You must have lived at the Lake Shrine, right?
[But perhaps the niceties can be skipped for the moment in favor of preventing any houses or people from burning down. Lucas will resume stomping on the flames.]
no subject
[Right sighs in exasperation.] Oh, great; she's still in "yesterday" mode... Osoi, that's Lucas. John is the theater guy. Now... [He clears his throat, falling into Trainer mode.] Osoi - put out that fire!
[And the Slowpoke's eyes light up with understanding (after a moment) and immediately uses Water Gun to help douse the pan with the fire. Unfortunately, part of that may have sprayed onto Lucas as well.]
no subject
Thanks, Osoi.
[Lucas will wring out part of his shirt as he tentatively steps forward towards the smoking pan. It seems unlikely that it will re-ignite for any reason, so he'll just go ahead and try to retrieve it.
...As he's reaching to pick it up, a wave of dirt will spray him from out of nowhere.]
Ghk -- !
[To the side, Espeon and a few of his other Pokemon are holding a bucket of dirt that they'd dug up to help extinguish the flames.]
no subject
Hey, hey, hey~! Easy, guys! It's already out!
no subject
...It's alright.
I think the moral of this story is... I shouldn't make cookies without anyone else in the house...
no subject
[Meanwhile, Right's Patrat pads up to the smoking ruins of the cookies. She sniffs them for a few moments, judging to see if it might be something to gnaw on, even if it's not food.]
no subject
Nothing a little healing won't fix, probably...!
So, um -- how have you been, Mr. Right? You went to Sanctuary, too, right?
[Hadn't he said not to call him that?]
no subject
[Since no one's looking right now, the Patrat will try to gnaw on...the pan itself. ...erk; damnit; fire didn't weaken it. Metal is just not good for itchy teeth that needs gnawing... Maybe some of these burnt cookies will do...]
no subject
[Lucas will squint through the dirt and gently pull away the tray.]
I'll make some better ones for you later!
[...]
...I'll buy some better ones for you later.
[Anyway.]
Sorry, Mi -- Right. Was everything OK with you?
no subject
[His wings flutter instinctively, as if to show themselves off.]
So, which mission did you become part of?
no subject
[Lucas smiles and glances around -- after a moment, he waves at his Espeon.]
Avey evolved, too. ...It was a big surprise for me; we've been together since I was really little.
The two of us ended up at the gates. ...I hadn't planned to be there, actually.
no subject
He is, however, surprised at that last bit.] Eh? Where were you planning to go?
no subject
[A slight smile.]
I was thinking I would be helping to heal anyone who was injured, but I took the wrong turn in the tunnel...
[It had been dark and confusing; that was his excuse.]
It was alright, though.
So -- did you learn how to do anything new after evolving?
no subject
no subject
Mostly Avey just got a lot bigger. I'm going to have to feed him a lot more...
[Avey grumbles a bit in annoyance.]
Sparkling is good, though. You should practice in the dark.
no subject
no subject
...I can kind of use that move now. It's probably not a good idea to do it in public, though.
[This sounds worse than he means it to.]
no subject
[...that sounds just as terrible, to be honest.]
no subject
[also pretty bad]
It's more of an attack.
But -- anyway, it looks like we all got something out of the fights, so... that's good.
