soggypastry[Hey, Johto. Enjoy that loud crash you're hearing, because it's only going to get louder and shatter the afternoon's relative calm. What was it? A crashing Skarmory, if the metallic screeching noise is anything to go by.
Of course, the video feed that suddenly comes on confirms that; Snow the Skarmory is hopping to his feet from where he'd crashed on the pavement, and a ball of running yellow fur can be seen just past him. Fang the Haunter is in direct pursuit of the yellow thing, and Lightning's boots cut across the feed a moment later.]
Fang, cut him off!
[The ghost seems to nod, but what, or who, is the "him"? That question is answered as the yellow thing runs right past the gear again. It's a Pichu, freshly hatched if the egg shell still half covering its head is anything to go by. It doesn't seem to be able to see anything at all, and one of its little paws catches on the cobblestone streets. This allows Lightning and Fang to catch up with it, and Lightning crouches down to remove the shell from its head.
After a moment of blinking in the newly bright light, it peers up at Lightning with wide eyes, then scampers up her arm with some quiet "Pi"s. After a moment of circling like some kind of cat would, the Pichu flops on Lightning's shoulder with an exhausted little sigh. She gives it a wry smile, then reaches over to pick up the gear, shutting it off in the process.]

[ Well...okay, that dissipated some of the tension, at least, because saying it like that? Sounds fucking ridiculous. ]

Date: 2011-05-01 06:52 am (UTC)If that's how Pikachu evolve, it would make sense that you've never seen one. Not many people would know how to do it.
[She's...totally serious. And somehow glad that the tension is dissipating. It feels...odd to be tense around him.]
[video] i lied--one last tag before bed :x
Date: 2011-05-01 07:08 am (UTC)[ Tension with Lightning is a new thing, yes. There's not much emotion in the way he's talking--less than usual, I should say--giving the impression that he's being deliberately gruff. ]
[video] Ara go bed. :P
Date: 2011-05-01 07:16 am (UTC)[Leon doesn't speak emotionally on normal days. This...this is setting off quiet warning bells in her head. Something's wrong, but what? She just can't figure it out.]

Date: 2011-05-03 06:14 am (UTC)I'm going to have to call off sparring for a few weeks.
[video]
Date: 2011-05-03 06:23 am (UTC)Sure. Did something happen?
[video]
Date: 2011-05-04 05:35 am (UTC)Nothing--I just need to get Yuffie back into training.
[video]
Date: 2011-05-04 05:55 am (UTC)...though it's going to take a little readjusting to after this long. Have a nod anyway, Leon.]
Okay. Good luck. [She'd offer her help if needed, but...she's not entirely sure it's her place.]

Date: 2011-05-04 06:04 am (UTC)See you, Lightning.
