Seventh Snapshot. [Video]

[The feed begins with Hayato Ichimonji, one eccentric photographer extraordinaire looking into the camera. He frowns ...and then abruptly grins!]

There we go. How's everyone doing? It looks like you guys really enjoyed the Day of Fire. Not that I disagree, because it was definitely good this year. I hope no one got too hungover.

[He snickers a bit and then crosses his arms giving a thoughtful look into the camera.]

Speaking of Day of Fire- I've been thinking about something. If you don't know me, I'll tell you that I'm a photographer by trade. Going through all the rolls of film I came back to Union with made me realize something.

Black and white really does not suit these pictures. Has anyone ever given thought to color photos? I'll tell you right off the bat, I'm no scientist, but man. If I could develop these bad boys someway to show the true spirit of these pictures, could you imagine?.

I've been trying to experiment with it a little but I haven't had a lot of success. I've tried different washes, or using inks, but nothing lasts. I'm playing with colored light a little now and I've started to get something-

[And he reaches behind him to grab a photo. It...well. It doesn't look like much. A faded picture of a Sylveon.]

Not that you can tell much from this, because Warp Band feeds are also black and white- but I've gotten a little bit of the blues and pinks to show up but the picture itself is in bad shape. I'm kind of stumped and I think I'd like to reach out to all the mad scientists in this town for ideas.

So, photographers and sciencey types! What do you think? Anyone have any ideas?

[Dwarfhaus and anyone visiting or looking for him.]

[Hayato has ...been in the darkroom for probably a whole week. He leaves every once in a while to get some vague sustenance but otherwise goes right back to the darkroom when he's done.]

[His pokemon are getting a little worried.]

[What you may come across is Goro pointedly whacking the darkroom door with his bone trying to get Hayato to open up.]


Wak! MAROWAK!! Maromaro... [Anyone attuned to pokespeak will hear some grumbling and explicit insults thrown towards his trainer.]

[Considering Goro's methods, probably. With that, he straightens back up and gives the door a few more reasonable raps with a gloved hand.]

Hayato? Are you busy?
cyborghands: (♞ to find there's nothing there)

[personal profile] cyborghands 2015-07-14 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[You are clearly doing some serious nerd science in there.]

Hey. I'm just checking in. Couldn't you hear Goro banging on the door?
cyborghands: (♞ chasing down your silhouette)

[personal profile] cyborghands 2015-07-14 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
I think he gets the picture, Goro.

[What good friends you two are.]

You've been in there for days. Is everything okay?
cyborghands: (❀ through nights that won't end)

[personal profile] cyborghands 2015-07-14 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Something important?

[Meanwhile, Ruriko is trying to wander inside. She's curious, okay.]
cyborghands: (✿ mercy)

[personal profile] cyborghands 2015-07-14 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[She pauses to look up at him, and sits with a brief whine. Takeshi chuckles.]

She was worried about you too. I bet she just wants to see what had you so preoccupied.
cyborghands: (❀ you've gotta swim)

[personal profile] cyborghands 2015-07-14 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry if we're interrupting you.

[He hadn't been planning on going in himself, but well, so long as the Pokemon wanted to. Ruriko leads the way in with Takeshi hesitantly trailing behind. It should be find so long as he was careful.]
cyborghands: (♞ you can steal my mind)

[personal profile] cyborghands 2015-07-14 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
[He carefully takes the photo by holding it in the palm of his hand and... squints at it.]

...Is that...?
