031 [Video/Action for Olivine]

I said get out of the way!

[Morning, Johto. Enjoy your very early morning wake up call. No, seriously, it's early. The sun's not even up-early. Lightning normally sleeps through this time of day, so why is she on the network? ...Well, she's not exactly on it by choice. Her Pokemon have the gear again, and it's showing that a nurse is trying to stop a very pale and rather shaky Lightning from leaving the Center, but considering she's dressed and with a pair of Lucario's at her side, she's not going to be stopped. At all.]

Miss Farron, if you'll just calm down--

Calm down? I just spent the past six hours puking my guts out while you ran around like headless chocobos trying to fix a problem that shouldn't have happened, and you expect me to calm down? [She scoffs at that, moving to shove past, but the nurse bars her passage yet again.]

Miss Farron, the poison is still affecting your body. If you'd sit down and let us help-

[Now Lightning snarls, and it's still rather intimidating despite looking like she's going to fall at any second.]

Help? Like when you somehow didn't notice someone go into my room in the middle of the night and let this happen? I don't need your help. I can handle this myself.

[The nurse aims to protest again, but Lightning doesn't listen and she goes around, hobbling out of the Center on crutches while not looking back even as the feed shorts out with a startled "Pika!". It never comes on again, but those who go out looking for her will find her on the porch of Minnie's house, sitting on one of the chairs with her head in her hands, that pair of Lucarios and a Pikachu nearby so she isn't alone. She really doesn't look well, either, so their concern is probably warranted.]

[ooc: due to plottings, Lightning spent the night badly poisoned and is now rather freaked out because, well, no idea who did it! :3 My thanks to both Cobra-mun and Kimblee-mun for this plot, it's been fun!]

[Yeah, well she's not you, big sis. Not to mention going three months with just Snow, Noel, and Mog would have been really unfair on poor Snow. Can you even imagine how much of a trainwreck that would have been?]

[It's going to take Serah's team a long time before they're able to even come close to Lightning's, especially consider just how unbalanced her roster is. Normal types might be versatile, but they're not typically known for being powerhouses.]

So that's why they poisoned you, because of the group you're in.

[It's a vile concept, but if big sis says it's true, then Serah believes her.]

Fine, i won't join this group, but that doesn't mean I won't do what I can to stop Team Rocket when I can, Lightning.

[Baby sis is too much of a Farron to let people get away with this sort of behavior.]

But I'll be careful, and if it looks dangerous I'll do what I can to stay out of trouble. Okay?

[A trainwreck of a very well trained Espeon, Furret, and Jumpluff. Mind over matter, baby sis.

And it's not like Lightning's team doesn't have their own weaknesses. You can do it, someday. ...Though that day is a very long ways away. Longer still than Lightning backing down on the matter of Serah joining the group someday.]

I know you wouldn't stay completely out of it. That's not like you. [Wistful little half smile. Serah certainly had the family trait of charging into trouble, that was for sure.]

Okay. I can accept that.

[chasingstorms]

[Mog doesn't believe in being well trained though, remember? She has absolutely no interest in training, battling, or anything of the sort. Snow and Noel, they'd be fine, but saddling her forever with Mog on her battle team is just mean.]

[That's a given, it's going to be a while before Serah really hits her stride as a trainer. Rinoa will probably have most of the badges by this point, breeder or not.]

Of course I wouldn't, I'm a Farron too remember? [At least they're being completely honest about what she would and wouldn't do.]

Good. I guess it's a deal then.
