01 Video | Action for Goldenrod

[incorruptibility]

[Currently climbing on and pecking at both the screen and the person behind it, is a torchic. More importantly, the one behind doesn't look all too happy.  Not just for the torchic pecking his arm and trying to rip his hakama.]

Ow--  Is there any way to get this thing to stop?  It won't leave me alone!  I understand it's mine now, but, really, does that mean it's necessary to destroy my clothes?

And, furthermore...

[Just then, an ekans drapes itself over his lap and opens its mouth towards the torchic - which then lets out a squawk and scrambles on top of Kira's head.]

...furthermore, should this one really be trying to eat it, and is there a way to make that stop?  At least, that's what it seems to be doing...or maybe it's only trying to scare it?  It seems too lazy to be a hunter...

Ah, anyway, Abarai, if you're here, we still have a match, I'm holding you to it!  Don't decide you're too afraid of my great swordsmanship and pretend you've forgotten, or that you're not here, I'll find out!  You know how it ends when you pit your intelligence against mine!

[Oh no, small children, how does he deal with that-]

...But it's hurting me.

[uuing]

.. Is it..? [ oh, now she frowns. ]

Show Maria to it, Maria will teach it a lesson for you, uu-..! Don't worry, Maria won't let it hurt you anymore!

[incorruptibility]

[Are you serious, kid...]

I don't think you can convince it of something like that...

[uuing]

Of course Maria can! [ why don't you trust this smile of confidence, Izuru, rude. ]

Uu-, just leave it to her..! Maria will help you right out!

[incorruptibility]

...Alright, if you say so. What do you want me to do?

[uuing]

Just show it the Pokégear you're holding now with Maria on the screen, uu-! Then Maria can talk to it, right?

[incorruptibility]

...Okay.

[He lifts the Pokegear up above his head, trying to aim it at the torchic on top of him.]

[uuing]

[ And at this Maria takes a deep breath, puffing up her cheeks - doesn't she look scary.. ]

Uu-, you there..! [ yes, she's scolding the pokémon, go figure. ] Leave him alone, he's just poor new kid! He just wants to become your friend slowly, so give him the time, okay?

[incorruptibility]

[Go Maria, go]

H-hey, I'm not some 'new kid'! Aren't I its master or something?!

[uuing]

But you just arrived, right? Then you're a new kid! [ don't mind the fact he's older than her, nope.. ]

And it's nothing like being a master, it's like being a friend! Uu-..

[incorruptibility]

I'm not a kid, anyway... But, how can I be the friend of something like this?

[uuing]

Isn't it the same like being friends with pets? .. Uu-, have you never had something like that?

[incorruptibility]

[He blinks]

A pet?

[What's that, people don't keep pets in the after life...]

[uuing]

[ it's like a rooster, kira. ]

.. Poor thing! [ maria, stop treating everything older than you like this.. ] Uu-, a pet like an animal that's re-ally close to you! It's like an animal friend! Pokémon are just like that, it's fun to be with them..!

[incorruptibility]

[a rooster, you say...]

Wait, am I the poor thing?

[ugh how do kids]

So, the point here is to collect friends...

[uuing]

[ Of course he's the poor kid! :D You only realised it just now, huh, eeyore.. ]

That's right! You need to get as many friends as you can..! Doesn't that sound nice?

[incorruptibility]

[uwoos]

...What if you're not any good at that.

[uuing]

[ being eeyore is suffering once more. ]

.. Uu-..? There's people who aren't good at that?

[incorruptibility]

Yes, I would be one of them?

[You know, those people who just study all the time and all]

[uuing]

[ well, not like maria was very good at it either back home but that's just since she's.. weird.. ]

.. You don't know how to make friends?

[incorruptibility]

Not particularly...

[He has a few! But it's more like... 'this is the girl I like' and 'this is that guy who pisses me off but somehow we hang out']

[uuing]

[ cool descriptions, eeyore.. ]

Uu-.. then it's time Maria will teach you how to make them! [ now he can get his own imaginary friends too, oh boy!! ]

[incorruptibility]

[There's also 'the guy whose ass I saved and he better thank me for it and also recognise that I'm totally better than him']

...Can you really teach something like that?

[o-oh, oh boy...]

[uuing]

[ Anymore nicknames? :D ]

Of course, uu-! Maria's the expert at this, so she'll teach a poor kid like you too! Nobody deserves to be alone.
