Pokemon: The Grassy Hill

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.

It's Sliggoo. [ she stops moving the moment he does and she looks around, her antennae eventually pointing in hiryuu's direction. ]

Just ah, mind the... slime... [ he takes a knee beside her and gives her a small smile. ] Who's your friend?

Sliggoo, is it? My name's Hiryuu.

[ She's sticking out a hand to shake, regardless of the slime. She appreciates the heads up, but some friends are slimy And That's Okay. ]

I'm Hiryuu--and this is Blaze, a Charmander. Blaze, say hello.

[ Blaze also extends his tiny hand to Yugi. Shake it! ]

[ and he's going to set a hand on her hand and shake his head. ] It can, ah, dissolve... pretty much anything... [ he looks down at himself and his disaster of a raincoat. sliggoo doesn't seem to mind not getting to shake a hand and she trills happily, since she's just glad to be making new friends. ] I'm not sure what happened, but the slime was fine before and, uhm, now it's not...

It's nice to meet you, Blaze. [ he'll take his tiny hand to shake. ] How have you guys been doing?

Oh. My.

[ uh. taking back her hand because. She likes it there and not... melted off. wh-why do they do these things to such nice creatures.... ]

Well, it's still a pleasure, Sliggoo. We've been doing well--we were just about to sit down and eat. Would you two like to join us?

[ Charmander has already fetched half a sandwich from the basket and is offering it to Yugi. ]

[ h- he doesn't get it either. he's just glad she's not climbing onto his shoulder, since she had sat there 90% of the time as a goomy. t- that's part of the reason he's got a bunch of raincoats with him, because he's having a hard time telling her no when she can't really interact with... much else... ]

How about it, Sliggoo, are you hungry? [ sliggoo looks up at yugi and then her antennae move a bit and she nods her head. ] Sliggooooo!

I think that's a yes. [ when charmander presents the sandwich he smiles. ] Thank you very much! Have you two taken in all the sights? This place is pretty awesome all, ah, pokemon'd up?

I'm applying Timey-Wimey Magic to this thread. Because I wanna have it but what is a timeline...

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-19 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[ poor sliggoo :( and poor yugi. they just wanna cuddle. ]

Well, we haven't been able to hit the water attractions, unfortunately. But we've been most everywhere else at least to look around. What about you?

puzzlers: DNT. (pic#12803263)

lol, works for me.

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-19 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
I think we have managed to see almost all of it. I had to hit up the onsen kind of early on, since I couldn't let Goomy dry out. [ rubs the back of his neck. this poor little pokemon has had nothing but problems. ]

[ munches on his sandwich. ]

It's been a while since we've been able to catch up, though things have been pretty rough lately, what with all the... games...

It's been a lousy time lately, hasn't it?

[ Charmander notes the shift of mood and begins starting to ply her with food--first a strawberry, and then a bit of sandwich. ]

Getting hurt and dying so much... the arguments... and then we lost Mars, Haku got transferred, too...

[ Even if it's supposedly temporary, she has Zero Trust. ]

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-19 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
...

[ o- oh no. he didn't mean to bring down the mood. n- not this much. ]

I, ah, I'm sorry, Hiryuu. [ he reaches out to take her hand. ] It's been rough, but... but we'll make it through this... together...

I know. You don't have to apologize--and it's okay, Blaze.

[ she pets him. He's a good boy. ]

It's sad, but--we have to keep going. If only so we can get them all back.
puzzlers: DNT. (pic#11990626)

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-19 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
And we will get them back.

[ a firm nod. ]

[ sliggoo has come closer too. she can sense all the sads! ]

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-19 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
Right. But--we certainly won't manage to do it on an empty stomach, you're right, Blaze. Thank you.

[ She'll go ahead and accept the sandwich he's been trying to put into her mouth all this time. ]

[ After taking a bite and chewing in thought, ]

... You know, these guys are really smart. Like, people smart, pretty much. And they're powerful. I wonder if they're real.

[ Although at the beginning her Charmander was looking pretty pleased, that last comment earns her the most Affronted look from Blaze. ]

[ he has finished his sandwich by this point, though sliggoo is now heading toward the basket to look for something to eat. ]

We need to keep our bellies full and our spirits up. [ chuckles. ] Hn? [ looks between sliggoo and charmander. ] I don't see why not. It could be a special kind of creature from someone's home. Like we have cats and dogs and they have charmanders and sliggoos.

Goo. Sliggoo. [ she feels real... 'stares' at hiryuu. ]
dragonheartedgirl: credit @dorkwithamask (forced smile)

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-19 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ Noting Charmander's and Sliggoo's looks, ]

Ah--sorry, I said something offensive, didn't I? I suppose--

[ She was just a little worried, about what might become of this place... later. When we're gone.

She was also thinking--they'd be extremely helpful allies if they could keep them at the end. But--that seems unlikely.

... But it occurs to her, just now, at the very last second, now that she's begun venturing down this road that maybe she shouldn't pose questions out loud that might cause these guys to have an existential crisis and/or panic about losing their masters? Or making Yugi panic about possibly losing Sliggoo after losing so many unitmates....

Time to. Hastily abort. She laughs nervously ]

I'm not sure what I was thinking. Maybe it's all this sun and heat getting to me.

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-19 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
No. It's a valid concern. I, ah, I mean most of the stuff in the other games... [ he trails off, since he's sure she knows where he's going with this. the people from the capitalism game weren't real. the armies in the castle game weren't real. s- so... it's possible that... these pokemon... ]

[ he had thought about it, but perhaps the realization hadn't sunk in that... sliggoo wasn't going to be able to stick with him forever. he stares at her and feels his chest tighten, his expression wavering, though he certainly does his best to look anything but upset. ]

M- Maybe. H- Hahaha. [ sets his hand on sliggoo's head and gently pets her. he ignores the subtle burning sensation each time his hand comes down on her head. it's fine, because it's worth it. ] How about we take a picture? I'd like to remember this day. [ musters a smile. ] How does that sound everybody?

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-20 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
[ Charmander is rather distressed that these humans are distressed and talking about things without really talking about them? So it's making it hard to understand. But... he definitely understands that something's not right. So he's decided to become a snuggle-bug. ]

I think a picture would be very nice. Maybe even a video?
puzzlers: (pic#13151763)

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-20 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ sliggoo is interested in snuggles too, but hmmmm. she decides it's time to evolve!!! goodra is going to grab him and pull him into a hug BECAUSE IT'S CUDDLE TIME, FRIENDS. ]

GoooOoOOOdra!

oof. [ he doesn't even have time to be surprised as she tries to round up hiryuu and charmander too. ]
dragonheartedgirl: (unexpected but not unwelcome)

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-20 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Hiryuu squeaks but is easily gathered in for a hug--Charmeleon, too, honestly. This was Unexpected. ]

She evolved again!
puzzlers: (pic#11952981)

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-21 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ he's kind of concerned about the hug for a split second, but it doesn't take him long to realize that she's not longer toxic to the touch. this makes it easily to laugh. ]

She did! Goodra, [ looks back up at her. ] you're amazing! but, ah, ...do you mind setting us all down? [ whelp, looks like he's not the only one that needs a towel now... ]
dragonheartedgirl: (You want me to what now?)

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-21 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ Indeed, once they've been set down, Hiryuu is holding her arms away from her body and evaluating the slime that's already bedded itself into her uniform. It feels.... very slimy. ]

Ah... I understand now why you've been wearing raincoats.

[ GOODNESS. ]

Well, it's not like I wasn't going to need a good bath anyway.

I, ah, y- yeah. That had definitely been part of it. [ the other part had been she kept accidentally dissolving parts of his clothes. these 'shorts' used to be pants! ]

[ speaking of which he should probably go change... ]

Maybe we can head to the onsen or the bay. [ take a dip and clean some of this slime off. ] ...although I'm not really sure Charmeleon would enjoy that at all. [ for obvious reasons! ]
dragonheartedgirl: credit @ colorise (Are you perhaps)

[personal profile] dragonheartedgirl 2019-07-21 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ OMG his pants... ]

That would be nice.... Maybe it would be safe if we made sure he kept his flame out of the water and put a protective enclosure around it? Like a lantern....

[ Charmeleon snorts and--because of his constant expression, it's difficult to tell if that was a surprised sound, a derisive one, or a laugh of sorts. ]
puzzlers: DNT. (pic#12875702)

[personal profile] puzzlers 2019-07-21 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ a lantern would be really cute. ]

[ he looks to charmeleon though and, y- yeah, he can't really tell what kind of snort that was. ]

Charmeleon? We don't have to go if you don't want to, especially since it's got the potential to be dangerous. I, ah, don't mind being... slimed... [ hiryuu he obviously can't speak for. ]

[ goodra trills again, giving charmeleon and big, warm smile! ]

[ Charmeleon--slaps the ground with his tail. And then he hunkers down, straining and then--begins to glow. ]

Oh! Again!?

[ EVOLUTION? ]
