[The feed flickers on, revealing a somewhat nervous looking Ezreal]

Hey guys, so. Jungler just started glowing recently before running off into the bushes. I think she's evolving? Anyway she's not the...

Friendliest of Pokemon.

Can anyone tell me how big Purrloin get when they evolve?

[Suddenly a giant black blur sweeps across the screen and the camera whips wildly around before settling with a view of the sky]

Nevermind. Ow.

[...]

...It wasn't fake!

[She doesn't sound too sure all of a sudden.]

[comparative_insanity]

...If it looks good, who cares if it's fake?

[indy_wannabe]

Which'll do so much good when it falls apart in a month.

[ladyofluminosity]

[THANK YOU FAI.

She starts to say something, then immediately huffs at the blond next to her.]

It will not! I happen to take better care of my clothes than a certain delver I know!

[...Although, now that she thought about it, she had seen a few stray threads on her coat the other day...]

[comparative_insanity]

And if it does, I'll buy you a new one. See? Problem solved and no harm done~. [Boy, your privilige is showing...]

[indy_wannabe]

Damn rich kids.

[ladyofluminosity]

Completely out of the question.

[comparative_insanity]

[He'll just laugh and shrug.] Suit yourself, my dear. Maybe I should just send you gifts anonymously~.

But I'm still wondering if buying something you want which might have been overpriced is quite on the same level as antagonizing an already annoyed Liepard.

[indy_wannabe]

Jungler's always had it out for me, nothing I say'll change that.

[Jungler snickers and nods]

[ladyofluminosity]

[She frowns.]

Send them to the house if you must, but you really don't have to. I'm trying to do things my own way.

[She looks back at Ezreal.]

If you were nicer to her, maybe she wouldn't be that way. Vinegar and honey.

[comparative_insanity]

Ah, I'm... really not trying to suggest that you can't do things on your own, Lux. I'm just being silly.

[That moment of actually being serious of course melts into another grin.]

And well, maybe she has a reason. Or maybe you should try not to make it worse, hmm?

[indy_wannabe]

She knows she'll get her way eventually, I can't make her think she has too much control.

[Jungler meanwhile yawns and stretches, very obviously aware of who's boss in this household]

[ladyofluminosity]

[Had... had she snapped at him? She didn't think--but then, she might have been a bit short. That wasn't his fault, she shouldn't have assumed...

There's a very quick wince that crosses her face before she responds.]

I think it might be too late for that, Ezreal.

[comparative_insanity]

[Fai was pretty sure he'd deserved getting snapped at there. That had come off as rather condecending, hadn't it - as if she couldn't figure things out on her own. Hopefully she believed him when he said he didn't mean it that way.]

Mmm, I think Lux is right, you know. [With an amazing sense of timing, Rumpleteazer the Purrloin decides to start using his arm as a scratching post. He barely winces, and keeps smiling.] Sometimes you've just got to submit to your pokémon overlords, you know?

[indy_wannabe]

Sometimes you have to maintain your fragile illusions to keep your sanity.

Not that she cares about that.

[ladyofluminosity]

Not really, no.

[Oh, hello there other kitty.]

You too, Fai?

[comparative_insanity]

I'm pretty sure she eats your fragile illusions for a tasty snack when she feels like it.

[Fai smiles and nods, happily stroking the purring pokémon despite the claws digging into his arm.]

I'm pretty sure she likes me, though. She just bullies me and shamelessly manipulates me.

[ladyofluminosity]

That sounds familiar.
