Twelfth Sacrament: Ice Cream

[11121_assumption]

[ Hello Network, there are three birds sat in front of your screen. In the middle is a Xatu with vivid red markings around her eyes, flanked either side by a Honchkrow and a Decidueye. It seems the Xatu is going to be doing most of the talking thanks to her psychic abilities, although it's the Honchkrow who greets the Gear first with a nod. ]

Hello. My name is Wisdom; this is Darkness and Reed. Our trainer is Walter Sullivan. It is unknown when he first came into his first world. His parents did not care to take note of it, or of him. Like ice cream, left under the sun. Very soft and melty. But still good. Especially when you re-chill it.

We have taken him as our own, and put him in the fridge. He is still soft and melty. But we are very proud of our soft ice cream and his accomplishments. Very proud.

[ The two birds either side of Wisdom gave her matching looks. Darkness clicked his beak at her. She didn't bat an eyelid but seemed to get to the point. ]

We will be celebrating his birth on the 24th of this month. We would like friends of his to come. Brilliant pancakes especially, but syrup and berries are also welcome. [ She lowered her gaze seriously. ] Trash and Receivers of Wisdom are not welcome. And will be removed, so they do not ruin the Ice Cream Sundae. Bacon should also not come, because it does not go well with ice cream. [ Darkness tested his talons and gave the camera a menacing croak. Reed made a point of showing one of his feather arrows, testing it's sharpness. A Marowak; Assumption with his distinct 'Halo of the Sun' marking; came on and said something to Wisdom. She nodded and added. ]

He will be in Ecruteak City. If you wish to attend and see him, let us know. We will find you on the day.

And if you know how to make sundaes, inform us. Because we do not know.

[ Assumption also nodded and waved to the camera. So if you want to attend Walter's Birthday Party, as arranged by his Pokemon, get in touch! Or help them arrange a party because what do birds know about parties, the answer is NOT MUCH. ]

*Sion's in the back yard outside his and Ryner's house when he posts this, evidentally having just finished feeding the pokemon, to judge from glimpses in the background of food bowls being enthusiastically emptied. it's even possible that the particularly eagle-eyed (and familiar with his and Ryner's rosters) might even spot a houndour among them that doesn't look entirely at home with the rest*

I don't suppose anyone has heard anything about a lost pokemon lately, have they? I found one recently that appeared to have been left outside my house, though I couldn't say whether accidentally or otherwise, but I've yet to be able to find any information as to where it came from. And if it has a trianer looking for it, then I certainly would like to reunite them, if possible.

*of course, he's realized there's a possibility the 'mon could have been abandoned, but he'd rather hope for the best first, okay*

If anyone does have information, please do let me know.

*and with that he--well, actually, he doesn't turn the 'gear off, but rather handles it to a certain rather disgruntled-looking mage, who delivers his own message rather deadpan-ly:*

Also, the Collegiate Gym is going to be closed to challenges from August 13th to 23rd, because we're going to be out of town for the festival in Azalea Town.

*and then Ryner hands the 'gear back to Sion, grumbling something that might be barely audible over the feed*

don't see why you couldn't just do it yourself, you were already...


((This is mostly Sion, but Ryner may drop in to reply to comments as well!))
