route_1065 | Happy nerd time with Bakura

Who: Bakura and whomever else is around
Where: Violet
When: Sunday, 5/22, before most of the water pokemon started really losing their minds.
Summary: Bakura's Dratini egg has arrived! Time to walk around town with it and be a gleeful nerd about holy crap, dragon egg, coolest thing ever.
Rating: G for Derp
Log:

Every now and then Bakura though he had finally adjusted to this new world without going into a mental fanboy flail over holy crap, being in a RPG world. Then he'd discover something new, or something amazing would happen and he was back to his first day of wide eyed gleeful this is the BEST THING EVER.

Today was one of those days as he cradled an egg in his arms, his ghostly duo of Misdreavus and Drifloon floating behind him while his Sableye trotted at his side and his Hoppip cheerfully watched from his normal perch in his hair.

A dragon egg. Words could not describe how amazingly cool the fact that he was holding a dragon egg in his arms was. Heck, how amazing the entire situation was! Real ghosts and fantastic creatures as his companions, and a dragon egg.

So. COOL.

[[He would give you a dirty look in return but phhht. God, this is so awkward, how does he even---

There's a tug at his pant leg and Gollum lifts his arms up patiently.]] Aaa-- I can't really--- [[a pause as Gollum shakes his head and again reaches up.]] Eh? Oh! Aaa... [[awkward awkward before he carefully lowers the egg to the Sableye's reach. Egg out of his arms, he can attempt to haul Amane out of his hair to hold her instead.

If she would just let go...

The words "Fail Trainer" are just written all over this scene. A little help, maybe?]]

Hey Amane. [He addresses the Misdreavus while attempting to get the Hoppip to go to his own arms.] Why not take the egg's old place. I'm sure it's more comfortable than his head.

[[Annin's chill, he'll go wherever he's scooted as long as he can cling to something and not fly away in the wind.

Amane, however, just gives Ted a glare and screeches at him. She likes where she is just find thank you. This is her spot. She gave it up to Annin since he needed it more, but now she's being stubborn.

Bakura just looks so helpless here. He's no good with girls, no matter if human or pokemon....]] Amane-chan, please...?

[He raises one hand in surrender.] It was just a suggestion.

[He then turns to Bakura, shaking his head.] Looks like you'll have to deal with that problem alone.

Un... [[a deep sigh, shoulders slumped]] She didn't seem to care at all about the other eggs.... [[winces as again she pulls at his hair.]]

Were you ever this overly excited about them?

Aa-- [[winces again as Amane answers that for him]] I guess I wasn't.... But Amane-chan, it does't mean I don't want you! [[protests, reaching up to put a hand on the jealous hair puller, only to be rewarded with another yank. No luck at all.]]

[Snickering, before he kneels down to try playing with the Sableye as well as hold onto the Hoppip. Yeah, he's letting you figure that out on your own, Bakura.]

[[so helpful, Ted, really. Gollum smiles up at him, however, carefully minding the egg in his arms as Bakura attempts to make peace with his starter.

There's a lot of wincing and screeching, but finally it dies down as it seems the pair have come to some sort of agreement. Bakura is looking a little worse for wear, however, as his head now really hurts...]]

[He looks up as soon as it sounds like the argument is over, amused.] Found a compromise?

[[such an awkward smile]] I think so...

[[Amane's stopped tugging and shrieking, and is looking rather smug from her perch on his head. Looks more like she won whatever the argument was.]]

Good. So how did you solve it? [He shall now return your Hoppip, Bakura.]

Aaa...

[[scratches at his cheek a little]] A lot of apologizing, mostly... [[why yes, he did just get bullied into submission by his starter]]

[[Annin gets to go on his shoulder this time. Amane ain't moving or sharing.]]

You are so not the trainer of that relationship. [He says in a singsong manner, thoroughly amused.]

[[shoulders slump. Yeeeah, he knows that.]] I don't know if I'd really call myself a trainer at all... [[if anything, his pokemon are training him!]] They're more companions and friends than anything like that sort of relationship anyway. [[admits sheepishly]]

There's nothing wrong with that, right? Though, I'm not really sure that's how friends normally act. [He ponders.] More like siblings?

[[It's hard to describe the expression on Bakura's face at that. Part wistful sorrow, part contentedness, part something that's just unreadable. He reaches up to put a fond hand on top of Amane.]] She lives up to her name.

[[and his friends almost always yell at him. Just... not normally this loud. ~~unless they're Jounouchi~~ and not with the hair pulling.]]

[A pause.] A namesake? [Mostly a conclusion to it considering he had earlier mentioned something about acting more like a sibling.]

[[nods]] Amane was my sister's name.

[[it was sort of odd to reflect on just how much he had talked about her since naming his starter after her. With her name being mentioned so often, was its hard for it not to happen.]]

I'm guessing she's quite stubborn as well, given your pokémon there.

[[another nod]] Once she got an idea in her head, there was no way to talk her out of it. [[smiles fondly]] We got into a lot of trouble because of that.

Sounds like she was quite a handful. [A beat.] You miss her, huh?

[[nods]] Yeah. I still write her letters, even here.

[A smile.] Planning on giving them to her when you get home?

[[a small, almost enigmatic smile]] Maybe.

[[he hadn't delivered her letters for quite a while. She could read them well enough no matter where he was, after all]]
