The 2nd Roar | Video / Action for Route 31

[usedroar]

[A good two weeks after first arriving in the world of Pokémon and Kovu no longer needs to chew on his PokéGear in order to get it to work. Of course, he's not the greatest cinematographer in the world, but...having only been human for a couple of weeks, a little sloppiness with his camera work can be forgiven...

[One thing that will look familiar is his facial expression, largely irritated and mildly confused.

[He lets out a huff.]

Is anyone missing one of these things?

[He asks, turning his Gear- not without some difficulty- toward the ground, where a rather smug-looking shinx is lying on its back and swatting at the camera with both paws.

[The feed goes back to Kovu just in time to catch an eyeroll.]

It started following me and Skitty around yesterday and now it won't leave us alone.

[Judging by her indignant meowing in the background, he's really the only one who seems to mind...

[Shooting her a look.]

And she won't attack it.

[Sigh.]

I thought you had to catch these things to get them.

Not always.

Sometimes they just decide they like you.

_{[A pause.]}

... Sooo... you look like you've adjusted okay.

[usedroar]

Wouldn't explain why this one's following me around.

[He growls, currently trying to detach the little thing from his leg.

[Then, with a quick glance back at the camera:]

I've been better.

[foolishwren]

Well, my starter was madly in love with me from the start, even though I pretty much treated him like dirt. Sometimes they don't have the best judgment, what can I say.

_{[It looks like this particular one is just playful...]}

... Sorry about messin' with you the other day, by the way. Normally I don't screw around with newbies.

[usedroar]

Trust me. I'm not the one he's here for.

[He grumbles, his discontent followed shortly by a delighted 'mew' from his Skitty.

[He doesn't even try to keep from rolling his eyes.

[Then, with a small sigh:]

Don't worry about it.

[foolishwren]

_{[... Ah. :I Young love.]}

A'ight.

In any case...

_{[... She's not entirely sure she wants to freak him the fuck out by bringing up Pride Rock. It might not even be the same THING. But then again... she DID meet friggin' Minnie Mouse here once.]}

I'm Heather.
