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.

[ save these fish

which just fuckin

land onto the ground, making deep holes into the dirt

wildly looking up and down before calling down to them ]

Onou-saaan! Renko-saaaan! Are you two alright!!

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Whups... too sharp an angle down, too fast. Koosh attempts to land them both, and kind of just. Dumps Hurricane on the grass instead. Oops.]

[He's up a second later, off and running toward the fish.]

Jesus, dude, I'm sorry. We weren't expecting fish.

[maidenheaven]

[ it's ok

they do start flopping up, as if trying to jump out of their holes

breathing out a sigh of relief ]

- It's alright, it seems they're fine! And in terms of who belongs in the skies, certainly, fish don't . . .

[ moving to start hauling the pink fish out of the hole when it jumps up ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Wh... what are they doing?

[Koosh comes over behind him, cocking his head as he watches.]

[maidenheaven]

[ the pink one just flops over to both hurricane and koosh, and starts flopping around

???

whatever it's trying to do . . . nothing happens. ]

They're exercising! Magikarps can jump to the heights of mountains, so I thought it would be fun if they stretched their fins a bit. They were eating a little while ago and they got energetic, so it seemed like a good way to burn off the excess energy.

[ hauling out the black fish now ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Don't they need water?

[maidenheaven]

[ the black fish seems to be 100% content in just like, being held in this person's arms

meanwhile, the pink one continues to splash. ]

It seems not. They're not quite fish, but rather, fish-like creatures.

[crossmyheartandhope]

...oh.

Uh.

Does this one wanna get picked up, too?

[maidenheaven]

Renko-san?

[ turning to look

tilting . . . head . . .

squints ]

Onou-san gets tired easily, so this child likes to be held quite a lot, but as for Renko-san, I don't think that child particularly needs it, but . . .

You can try, if you like?

[crossmyheartandhope]

...Renko? You wanna come up?

[Holds... his hands out??]

[maidenheaven]

[ one could say that the way renko jumps up into hurricane's arms is aggressive. just a little bit.

maybe it's just energetic.

in the meantime, just sort of petting onou from his spot, feigning some level of casualness ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

...hey, dude.

You, uh. You like getting petted?

[What do you do with a fish??]

[Koosh doesn't seem to know either. He's wandered over to stand by Hurricane, peering at the Magikarp.]

[maidenheaven]

[ the deep unfortunate part of all of this is that, despite having been picked up, renko does not seem to calm down at all, and continues to flop aggressively in hurricane's arms. ]

. . . ?

[ THIS one is petting onou, so ?? ]

Renko-san is energetic. . .

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Careful... fish... pets...??]

[maidenheaven]

[ flop

flop

stilling for a moment

flopFLOPFLOPFLOP ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Whoa! I, uh - I don't think he's into it!

[Trying to put the fish back into the hole, careful.]

[maidenheaven]

[ it flops out of the hole and then just kind of flops around, wandering into the grass ]

Oh dear -

[ looking back to hurricane and then to the retreating pink fish ]

. . . I suppose not - ? Oh -

I wonder if it's because your child is around, too. . . ?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Ah - you think? Koosh, could you like - scoot back some?

Look less like you're gonna eat a fish or something.

[Koosh scoots back some, and Hurricane goes to try and wrangle this fish back into its hole.]

Dude, you can't just like... disappear into the grass!

[maidenheaven]

[ it just kind of

bounces along

fairly quickly actually

maybe it will actually just disappear into grass? thank you very much ]

Ahhh. . . Uhm . . .

[crossmyheartandhope]

H-hey! For real, it's not safe! You can't just run off!

Flop! You can't just flop off!

[Going to try and circle around to the other side and chase it back this way???]

[maidenheaven]

[ flop flop FLOP

when hurricane goes to try to chase it, the fish

instead

jumps into his arms. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Now?? He has???]

[An arm full of fish????]

Uh.

[maidenheaven]

[ it finally stills, like it's calmed down.

huh. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Pets it. Carefully?]

[maidenheaven]

[ it flops a little, but otherwise seems docile. ]
