[Video]

[When the video comes on, Jinxie's already glancing back and forth like she's about to say something super secret and important.  She sort of is, but it's also pretty benign on the whole.]

Um... so, you know how usually when people have babies, there's a party for the parents to invite their friends and celebrate?  Has anyone ever done something like that for their Pokemon?  I know the breeding center just handles all the eggs and everything, but... what if the mother and the father are two Pokemon you've known for years, and are more like friends of the family?  Would it be silly to have a party to celebrate?  Do you think anyone would want to go to a party like that?

[This could just be Jinxie inviting people she knows to just such a party.  It's hard to tell, with the needlessly furtive way she's going about it.]

[Action]

[Later in the day, Jinxie can be found running errands around the city.  She's got a little cloth pouch hanging around her neck, with a black egg with a white skull on it inside - helping out Dokuro and Shi a little while they get some rest during the day.  She'll be heading for the breeding center to pick up some supplies for the baby-to-be, but she's also looking for some specific people today: Quinn, Melaka, Eucliwood, Blackquill, and Rise in particular.]

((OOC: Note to self on current charm totals - Barrier x0, Hex x1, Confusion x1, Curse x2))

[Rise can be found ignoring her Warp Band today, in favor of blowing her exploration pay from the city on nice summer clothes. She does wave to Jinxie when she sees her walking down the street.]

Hey! How's it going?

[somnambulatory]

Hi, Rise. I'm glad I found you. I wanted to give you something.

[celebrity_commentator]

You did? What is it?

[somnambulatory]

[Jinxie pulls out one of her charms, like the one she used to wear on her forehead but with a different symbol.]

It's this. Ever since I evolved, I can make these. I only have a few, and I wanted to make sure to give them to people who supported me a lot.

[celebrity_commentator]

Wow, that's...um, thank you.

[She doesn't really know what to say. She's never gotten something just for being nice to someone before, at least as far as she knows.]

What does it do?

[somnambulatory]

I have three different ones. You can pick whichever one you want.

[Jinxie fishes out two more charms. Each one has a slightly different symbol painted on it.]

This one is a Confusion charm, this one is a Hex charm, and this one is a Curse charm. If you concentrate for a moment and throw it in front of you, it will use the attack stored inside, but it's only good for one use before the power is used up.

[celebrity_commentator]

Huh! That's really cool! I wonder which one would help the most...

[She thinks it over for a minute.]

Well, Hex is the one I don't think any of my Pokémon can do, so let's go with that.

[somnambulatory]

Hex... okay.

[Jinxie looks at the three charms for a moment, drawing the appropriate one out and handing it to Rise.]

Here you go. Save it for a time when you really need it, okay?

[celebrity_commentator]

I will. Thank you so much!
