There's something strange, a sudden change
Around, all across the sky;
A change of scene as The Machine
Goes wild, and no one knows why

Everyone will say it's a great display
And we brought it for you
Cynthia and Lance set off Nukes From France™
Now you know what to do:

WE'RE KICKING OFF A ROUTE FOURTH WALL
BRING EVERY JOURNAL, ONE AND ALL
HAVE A PARTY, BREAK DOWN ALL THE WALLS
'Cause it's our game's anni-ver-er-sa-ry
And we're, so ha-a-a-ppy!

[None of his pokemon are actually familiar with Ino! Her unexpected outcry just about startles his Galvantula scuttling backwards, and the walking prehistoric nightmare that is Kabutops looks mildly affronted on Shino's behalf.]

That is Kabuto. [He supplies, entirely unhelpfully.]

[As its trainer didn't seem to deem the girl a threat, the electric tarantula crawls out from behind him to hang off his shoulder to say hello too.] Kumo.

[hi ino you see he's been busy]

look like a fly but sting like a bee

[cosmosic]

[IT OK SHE IS NOT FAMILIAR WITH ANYTHING. She is however totally grossed out by the scuttling and is glad she has a Spoink bouncing alongside her and not SPIDERS or BUGS sorry Shino

NINJA INFO CARDS SHE REMEMBERS

tho she visibly shudders at the crawling and hanging off his shoudlersldkjdgs]

I guess I should have expected that if they're yours, huh?

[A small smile then she gestures to the Spoink still bouncing. Bouncing forever.]

I'm not really sure what this one's name is but they've been following me around everywhere since I got here.

[shinobee]

[Shino's stares down to acknowledge her companion. Hello, little Spoink. It's probably going to make his yellow spider dizzy, continuing to watch it bounce up and down through compound eyes.]

Ino... it's fitting that of all pokemon, that one chose to follow you. [A NICE, LONG EXTENDED PAUSE.]

[Why? Well, it's certainly not because it's a pig.] Because psychic types also possess a degree of mastery over the mind.

[cosmosic]

[THAT PAUSE INO SEETHES]

Eh?

[Her cheeks aren't just red from anger now.]

It's psychic? Really?

[She looks down at her Spoink, trying to picture the bouncing thing being able to read minds or use telepathy or anything else.]

How do you know that?

[shinobee]

I know because if one stays here long enough, it becomes necessary to assimilate such knowledge with what one already knows. [that is IF YOU WANNA BE THE VERY BEST LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS]

[produces a Pokedex from his pockets] Your Pokedex functions as some sort of encyclopaedia.

[cosmosic]

[She leans over and blinks down at it. SO THAT'S WHAT THAT THING IS. She pulls out her own and IMMEDIATELY she has a description of some pokemon nearby. In this case, it's Spoink.]

Spoink? Geez... [As if she needed MORE EVIDENCE IT WAS A PIG. Shino is right though in saying it's a psychic type. She might have liked it if it wasn't a pig. But some things had a tendency to grow on her after a while.

Take Shikamaru and Chouji, for example. Total slackers but there's no one else she'd rather be teammates with now.]

So what are yours called? [Tries to smile... in a friendly manner at the spider. Hello spider sob]
