bravenewworld | 3rd Note [SOS & Action]

[Sometime late in the day, a distress signal activates from the bottom of the Deep Canyon! There is no accompanying video or text.]

Action
[About an hour after her unintended SOS went out, Eucliwood began to wake. The last thing she remembered was walking on a narrow section of rock on her way up the far side of the canyon. At least until it gave way beneath her. Thankfully, the impact knocked her out pretty much instantly.

However, she could tell almost right away that she was in trouble. The pain was there of course, but she could deal with a lot of pain. Her leg was bent at an awkward angle. While she'd felt the pain of broken bones before, this was the real deal. Eu grimaced as she attempted to straighten her leg out. Letting it stay like that wasn't a good idea. She needed to try and splint it or something.

While she sent out her Furret to search for usable wood for a makeshift splint, all she could do was wait, completely unaware that her Duskull had sent out an SOS while she was unconscious.]

((ooc: While it's already been planned out that Jinxie will come to Eucliwood's aid, people are welcome to try and contact her through text and video.))

[Eu will stare curiously at the small ghost, but she doesn't move. Rather, she closes her eyes for a moment.

Then Dokuro will feel her questioning, sort of. She can't exactly speak into minds, but she can emote. It causes Eu a sharp moment of pain, but at this point, it doesn't bother her too much.]

[Dokuro tilts his head for a moment, and then mimes the act of writing and tearing a sheet off the notepad before pointing down at Jinxie.]

[Oh. Well, that was a possibility. Might as well give it a try.

She jots down a brief note before holding it up for the Duskull.]

You came all the way from the city?

[And Dokuro flies it on down to Jinxie, who reads it and then calls back up toward Eu.]

We were already out training.

[That's somewhat of a relief. And made more sense, really. It had only been an hour or so since she'd fallen.]

I see.

[And once more, she holds up the slip of paper for Dokuro to relay to Jinxie.]

[Jinxie reads it and nods.]

I would have still come anyway.

It could have been dangerous.

[Dokuro just keeps on ferrying the notes back and forth.]

It's okay. Like I said before, friends help each other. Everyone needs it sometimes.

[Yoruno could probably do it too, but he'd likely turn it into some sort of game.]

I am your friend, then?

[Honestly, it's a small miracle Dokuro hasn't already done that himself.]

Uh huh. If you want to be. I think of you as one of mine.

[He's clearly going to be under the best influence over the course of Eu's stay. Thankfully the rest of Eucliwood's Pokémon are pretty chill.]

I've never had friends.

[Jinxie frowns at that note for a moment before replying.]

...Can I be your first, then?

[Eucliwood pauses for a moment, thinking it over. On one hand, she really wants this. On the other, she doesn't want to see anyone get hurt. There's always the possibility of her slipping up and speaking or something.

However, she thinks it unlikely that Jinxie will let her just wander back out into the wilderness, at least so long as her leg is injured. The risk would be there anyway.]

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

[No hesitation there at all.]

Very well.

[Jinxie may not be able to see it, but there's just a very, very faint smile on Eu's face.]

[And Jinxie smiles too.]

[And the crickets are a chirping.]

Thank you.
