16th Tomoe || Video, Action for House of Minnie

[beforethedarkness]

[It's early in the morning when Sasuke is woken up by Sakura. He groans when he sees the cheerful Lucario greeting him, and when he's pulled along to see why...

Well, that makes his morning a whole lot worse.

A sigh leaves Sasuke before a video goes up on the network, revealing the tired boy (sans headband) in a closed, rather plain room with his happy Lucario leaning on his shoulders. Seems like the radio on his gear is tuned in to the 'Town Channel' to cover up whatever background music there is, too...]

I have a lot of eggs and am putting them up for sale. There's Zubat, Shinx, Emolga, Oshawott, Riolu, Treecko, Yanma, Feebas, Charmander, Buneary, Vulpix, Torchic, and Purrloin eggs. I can send them over the PC to you.

[Yeah he's incredibly tired right about now. Shutting off the feed on that note.]

[[OoC: There are still some eggs left! Post is here!]]

Comments

[beforethedarkness]

No. Obito's and Ren's pokémon got in on the 'action' too.

[usedswift]

[A snort at the description.]

Well, which ones come from mine, can you tell? I'd like one of the ones I don't have, if they're something that bred with mine, too...

[beforethedarkness]

[He'll just give another sigh before going through the eggs with Tenten -- apparently Sasuke managed to find them all -- before glancing up at her.]

Any in particular you wanted?

[usedswift]

[She's ticking them off on her fingers, trying to do figuring of which ones could possibly have been hers. The correct answer is that she wants all of them, but she won't be greedy.]

Oh, is that Riolu? [She reaches out with a finger to touch an egg, biting her lip as she tries to remember what the different eggs look like.]

I don't think it could have come from one of mine, but I'll pay you for it.

[beforethedarkness]

Yeah. It's a Riolu egg. The father is likely Ren's Hitmonchan.

[usedswift]

Mm... let me know the prices, and I'll take this one.

[She pulls the egg she'd touched in close to her, looking over the rest and tapping a finger against her lips.]

Treecko... that might be one of Hua's. I'll get one of those, and the Zubats... Could be Jinwu or Feng's, unless you think it was another Flying type. Feng was pretty much preening this morning, though.

[Yep, pulling those ones to her too. Egg mountain.]

What's this one, though?

[She indicates the Oshawott egg... never seen one of those before!]

[beforethedarkness]

That one's an Oshawott. It eventually involves into Samurott - Senshi. You've seen her around.

[Meanwhile getting the Zubat, Treecko, and Riolu eggs for Tenten.]

[usedswift]

Oh!

[Her eyes go wide, and she nods.]

That one too, then. Senshi looks so cool. What type is she?

[beforethedarkness]

She's a water type - though she learns some interesting moves, like Megahorn. Senshi knew Ice Beam as well, though I don't know if that passed onto the eggs. Oshawott can learn it if you're willing to pay for the TM though.

[usedswift]

That sounds pretty powerful... Yeah, I'll definitely take one of those, then. I'll pay you for the Riolu and the Oshawott then, but I'm pretty sure those other two are from mine. At least one of them. [Which means she'll just take them, thanks!]

...How much do you want for those two?

[beforethedarkness]

I was planning on putting up the Riolus for P 1,750 and the Oshawott P 1,250.

[usedswift]

[Some quick math, then she nods.]

Yeah, I'll get that to you. I've still got money saved from when I was working after the Con, and I have the money from the badge. Not a problem.

[beforethedarkness]

All right.

[Nodding.]

[usedswift]

Mm.

[She moves to sit by the eggs, letting her fingers brush each one with a little bit of a smile.]

I kind of like hatching them, you know? I mean, capturing them is one thing, but there's something nice about raising them, too...

[beforethedarkness]

... I guess I can see where you're coming from.

[usedswift]

It takes more time, but it's worth it. With the egg Misaki-san sent me, this makes...

[She tips her head back, mouthing silently to herself as she counts.]

Twenty-seven of them, and they're all pretty great in their own way.

[beforethedarkness]

[Twenty seven...]

Why do you have that many.

[usedswift]

Because they're all different types, and they've each got their own traits that're useful. I mean, back home I had more than a hundred weapons in a single scroll, and Pokémon are basically weapons...

...Is that weird?

[beforethedarkness]

... I didn't expect you to get so many so quickly.

[usedswift]

I work, then I buy eggs with that money. It seemed like the best way to succeed here, was to base it off what I already know.

[beforethedarkness]

...

You've still been training them, haven't you?

[usedswift]

[What's that face?!]

Of course! I train them off each other, or we work together. I try to get in individual time with everyone, especially when they're young, but a lot of times I'll pair like types together and see what they come up with.

Since for me, I want to beat Gym leaders so I can fight you evenly, but I'm also more concerned about if we'll be able to protect each other in actual combat, too.

[beforethedarkness]

[He nods, and at last he stops seeming skeptical and more... Serious.]

I see.

[usedswift]

Mmhm.

[She glances to him, a little curious.]

You don't think that's a valid tactic, Sasuke...?

[beforethedarkness]

I have a lot of catching up to do.

I've caught twenty-two so far.
