Pokemon: The Grassy Hill

[idolpro]

There's only one way to go from the Laboratory, and that's along the lane leading down the grassy hill. On the right side, there's a small farm where those of you that possess rideable Pokemon can learn to do so, as well as a farmer who could use some help herding their Mareep, Tauros, and Miltank. On the left side, there are large meadows filled with fruit-bearing berry trees, an ideal place for picnics and outdoor parties.

Naw, I'm cool. I mean, unless you super wanna?

But you look like you got your hands full. I can help out for a few.

[maidenheaven]

[ mental hamster wheel of Sir Do You Not Recognize Me and How Long Until He Does and It's Nice To Talk To Him Though and

with a little laugh ]

Well, they are . . . quite literally, full . . .

[ pats fish. ]

Your child - what is their name? - did you bring this one here to eat, or to play . . . ?

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ Hiryuu squeaks but is easily gathered in for a hug--Charmeleon, too, honestly. This was Unexpected. ]

She evolved again!

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Eases it in, and then adjusts it a little, once it's settled.]

[maleficafe]

Mm. I wish we could have games like this all the time.

Re: HSS Assemble!

[crossmyheartandhope]

I'd totally take a trophy, too. Just saying.

[wonderlandgirl]

Well, I'm not old enough to... maybe I'll like it more when I'm grown up?

[She hands one of the blue berries to Hikaru, who sniffs at it curiously before trying it--

[Again, he doesn't look like he minds it. But he doesn't exactly look overwhelmed either.]

You're not going to turn out to be a picky eater, are you, Hikaru-chan?

[maidenheaven]

Why not try some of these?

[ with a gesture to the ones that look like peaches ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Uh - we were just kinda joy riding. Fed him before we headed out this way.

He's Koosh.

[Turning back toward the Braviary.]

Hey, Koosh. C'mere and say hi.

[Koosh flaps over and lands, butting his head into Lucifel's elbow, gentle.]

[maidenheaven]

[ onou flops a little, and lucifel pets the fish's head for a moment before tilting his head down to look to koosh; with a nervous sort of smile - angled so that hurricane can't really see his expression - he offers a hand out to the braviary ]

. . . Hello. It's nice to meet you, Koosh-san.

[letgrow]

Mm, something like that... It's a nice thought.

[softlyfalling]

Ah, the names sound lovely—is there a meaning to them?

I... think I'm enjoying it? I suppose I should, since it seems like it's even required to be peaceful, and we've had little enough of that.

[ simha has meanwhile started sniffing at all the berries in the basket. ]

Re: HSS Assemble!

[mapsio]

[ NO, WE WON'T. BE MAIMED. ]

[ Hmm, leaning down to kiss him. ]

[wonderlandgirl]

Oh...! What do you think, Hikaru-chan? Do you want to give those a try?

[Hikaru nods, of all things...

[She wonders exactly how much of this he's been following, and decides it's probably most of it.]

Okay, we'll try those.

[She picks one, hands it over. Picks another for herself, just to see.]

Oh--!

[dragonheartedgirl]

Okay! We'll defer to your judgment. Do you want something to help mark off the space?

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Koosh stretches out his neck and - nibbles the offered hand a little, gentle, like he's preening it.]

Think he likes you.

[maidenheaven]

. . .

[ gently, reaching out with his other hand to try to pet the bird - carefully, making sure his fingers run down the same direction as the feathers grow ]

Nice to meet you . . .

[maleficafe]

[jack floats over to camellia and gently brushes her hair with one of his spooky tendrils]

... I think he likes your smile. I do, too.

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Koosh just straight-up shoves his head into the hand, like a pushy dog that wants pets.]

Annnd, you've got a friend for life.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Look at all of the trees bearing fruit! I've never seen any kind like this...

[ Not to mention all of the flowering plants... There's even a faint sound of buzzing bugs which might mean there's a hive with honey somewhere? ]

[letgrow]

Thank you, Jack... And I like Lavender's smile also.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Hurricane and I have managed to dig out the inside of the house and put together a frame, so that part's done. Prim is going to be in charge of decorating--with our help of course. And Eclipse is looking for a safe place to put the pool, which Charmeleon should be able to dig out in no time. So I think that leaves finishing off the bamboo and wood siding on everything, the tree house portion, finishing and filling the pool.

[ There's still a lot to be done but ]

We're making good progress!

[purrrnicious]

So is this one big or small for a dog?

[gigadevilbreaker]

They usually don't stand on two feet? But a big one can be, like... [He vaguely gestures around where a great dane or mastiff something would grow up to.]

People originally tamed dogs t'help be their hunting partners, so they can be pretty tough.

[we_meet_again]

I don't think I have, either... but that's probably normal, all things considered.

[Deerling bounces on ahead, pausing periodically to munch a leaf or fallen berry. It's very scenic, so Cobalt gets out his phone and snaps a few photos.]
