Eleventh Transmutation | [video] Home again, home again...?

[Hello, Johto. Here's a face that hasn't been around for a while! Al frowns and scratches his neck, looking more than a little awkward.]

Um, I know it might not be the best time with the whole 'natural disasters everywhere' thing going on, but...I just wanted to let anyone who remembers me know I'm apparently back to stay? At least for a little while.

[A long, awkward pause, before Al chuckles nervously.]

So, uh, what'd I miss?

Dude, you're back!

[Yay!]

I dunno that you missed all that much, TBH--[Oh my god Dave don't LIE, the past month was insane]--but you know who missed you?

[And here come Clara and Huggybear, the Musharna clinging to the Pidgeot's head, staring into the screen like it's the Second Coming.]

I am! It's so good to see you--oh!!

[Oh no Al is really excited to see Dave again too, but THOSE ARE HIS BABIES.]

Clara, Huggy! You two haven't given Dave any trouble, have you?

Naw, they're angels. Angels who regularly eat me out of house and home, and me a poor minimum-wage part-timer.

[Huggybear in particular has...well, he's evolved, so surely that accounts for his increase in bulk...?]

If I trade them back to you by PC, is there anywhere in New Bark you can pick them up, or do you have to wait until you hit Cherrygrove? Things are a little...completely shitbasket right now, travel-wise. You are in New Bark, right?

[Alphonse eyes Huggybear with an amused, if somewhat concerned, look. Yeah, there has been a LOT of fluff added onto that little frame of his.]

Yeah, they go through a lot more food than you'd think they do! I try and pay you back once I can. And...I don't think there's any PCs here in New Bark, no. I'll message you once I reach Cherrygrove--you two be good until then, okay?

[Huggybear squeaks and waves his trunk in response, and Clara lets out a long, sleepy-sounding coo.]

Is there anything else I can help you out with? Shit, you probably lost all your crap, too...I bet Clara could fly there pretty fast on her own with a care package, you know?

I wouldn't say no to some spare clothes, maybe some travel-worthy food if you can? They only have so much to offer here in New Bark, and I don't want to survive off of jerky for three days if I don't have to.

Yeah, can do. I'll pack an umbrella, too, in case. Dunno what I can do about water, that gets heavy to carry and it might be at a premium right now with all the insane horseshit going on basically everywhere.

I can handle water well enough, but if you can send a few bottles that would be helpful! You're a life-saver, man.

Hah. It is supposedly my vocation. Okay, I'll send Clara over with as much of that stuff as she can haul. The average velocity of laden swallows and all that.

[Al blinks a few times, then laughs and shakes his head. Gonna have to get used to those pop culture references all over again, it seems.]

Thanks a bunch, Dave! I'll have to figure out a way to pay you back sometime.

Think nothing of it, broseph. Friends don't keep balances.

[...]

Unless there's a birthday. Then it's motherfucking on.

[PFFFT.]

Yeah? So when's yours?

December.

[No fear. That's a long ways off.]

Huh! Guess that just gives me more time to plan, huh?

How far in advance should I start preparing my body, dude.

Ha ha! I don't want to set a date on that, then I might not live up to the hype!

Then I await the festivities with unflagging hype from now to winter, dude.
