soggypastry: (hands on hips)
[Morning, Johto. Have a clatter to start your day, for those of you who are late risers. Light's just packing up her bags and accidently dropped the thing, so she'll just be picking it up now to turn it off with a small headshake.

That is, of course, until Sen appears barely on screen, dragging an obviously stolen blanket down the hall. Lightning doesn't see him, but he returns just as she is about to shut off the gear. With a cheerful yip, the derpy Lucario begins to drag his trainer out of her room and into the hall, and this odd behavior startles her into following to see just what has his attention.]


Sen, what are you--oh. Fal'Cie...

[Through Lightning's fingers half-covering the camera, it's possible to see the open hall closet on the upper level of Minnie's House, and in the morning light coming in from behind Lightning, it's easy to see that Strike, Leon's Lucario, is contentedly curled around three black and blue eggs. She sleepily blinks as Sen wriggles his way to curl up behind her, the blanket that was obviously stolen from an unused bunk wrapped around the eggs, and Lightning sighs explosively.]

You have got to be kidding me.

[That said, she can't seem to move away for much longer than to call down the hall; Sen may be her problem, but Strike belongs to a certain man she is packing to move along with. A man who needs to get his butt over here, and fast. So she'll just be going to the banister and calling down the steps, gear still recording.]

Leon, can you come over here? We have a problem.

[And as soon as she's sure that the man she called has heard her, Lightning turns back to the closet and shakes her head again, shutting off the gear. This is the last thing they need right now.]
soggypastry: (acceptance)
[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.]
soggypastry: (oh crap)
[It's late. Around midnight late, when most people are asleep. And Lightning, despite being most people, is also asleep with her Riolu curled into the crook of her neck and her Rapidash sleeping nearby. So. If she didn't turn it on and Sen is asleep, who turned on the video? Well, you may note that the camera is partially blocked by a shard of metallic silver shell. Yes, the Skarmory egg she got from Leon has hatched. Where's the bird? Clanking its way to Lightnings side and tilting its head just like its mother. It's almost creepy, really. But then it tilts its head back a normal position and seems to take a deep breath before...

...It shrieks like a banshee. Ear-shattering, really. Some people are going to get a rather nasty wakeup call, and Lightning is one of them, with Sen and Odin being two others. As Lightning jolts up, fully awake and eyes wide with surprise and a little fear, Sen yelps in shock and burrows into Lightnings sleeping bag. Odin, on the other hoof, rears and bellows at the top of his lungs, hooves slicing the air in retribution for his startled mistress before said woman gets up and places a hand on his neck. While not calm, he comes back to earth and snorts steam, firey mane and tail raging in his anger. Lightning, in a moment that she doesn't know will be all over the network, seems to bury her face in Odins neck with a muttered curse, and Sen slowly reappears from her sleeping bag. The bird is chirping cheerfully, the picture of someone pleased with himself, and Lightning soon turns on it with narrowed eyes.]


For that, I'm naming you Snow. [Snow the Skarmory just coos in greeting, and the feed ends.]

[If there is one thing to be sure of when when eggs are involved, it is that there will be gear mishaps. Like this one, which has started due to someones bag tipping over and dumping its contents to the snow covered ground. There's the sound of skin on skin, along with running footsteps and grunts of pain, but the camera is at such an angle that you can't see whats going on, or make out who it is.

What you can see, however, is a pair of glowing lights. One is from the side of the camera, decently in view, and the other is in front of the camera, next to a second egg. The glow seems to get the attention of the sparring young adults, and there's the sound of footsteps. The camera is at such an angle that its impossible to see their faces even as they crouch down beside the glowing eggs, but it's now obvious that it's Lightning and Leon. Sparring, in the snow? Nothing new for them.

What is new, however, is the two forms that have replaced the glowing eggs. They look exactly the same, but they certainly don't act the same. The one that hatched on Lightning's bag sounds a happy little "Lu!", while the one from Leon's side just gives a quiet huff at the noise. She nearly pulls away as Leon gently pats her head, and Lightning leans to pick her Riolu off the ground. After a moment of this, and the second egg amongst Leons things not even twitching, Lightning speaks.]


Leon...your other egg...[The feed ends on this note, leaving anyone watching to wonder what's going on.]
