17th [video network post]
[The video starts on Kazuki sitting on the grass in front of a very charming little building. A wooden sign hanging from the eaves is visible. It reads: Silver Horn. A Dragon Type Silvally walks into frame to join him, sitting down and nuzzling him with its metal jaw. He laughs, and slings an arm over the Pokemon's back. It wags its fish-fin tail happily. Kazuki looks back up towards the camera with a bright smile.]
How's the shot, Sebastian?
[A neat, white paw makes an okay sign in front of the camera.]
Great! Well... [He pauses to clear his throat.] Welcome to the Silver Horn!
It's been close to a year since I started thinking this up, and I honestly can't believe everything's finally finished! The place was so run down when I bought it, and I felt like it'd never be done... But we made it! It's ready!
First off, I wanted to thank everyone for all their help with this. Whether you made a donation, or stopped by to give me a hand-- I never would have been able to do it without your support. [He gives a short bow.] Thank you so much!
Second, since not everyone knows about it, I want to explain what the Silver Horn is.
My name's Kazuki Hihara, and I'm getting close to being in the Pokemon world for four years now. I've never been much of a Pokemon trainer, or even a catcher. Almost all of my Pokemon came to me somehow, whether they needed my help, or were given to me as eggs, or found me after a friend left... And they all had one thing in common. They all needed a place to be.
For awhile, I had my own place in Lavender Town where I let them all live. I used to volunteer at Mr. Fuji's orphanage too, and I really liked it there. I realized I wanted to do something like that myself. I wanted to make something that would lighten the burden on places like that. A soft place to land, you know? And for people! Otherworlder's specifically. So many people come here shocked, or scared, and they just need a place to heal up, or get used to things. I wanted to help them too.
After Aether Paradise, I really figured out that that kind of vision was mine too. But my Aether Paradise was gonna be for real. And I was outgrowing my place in Lavender, so I couldn't do it there. So I bought this property, and... Now we're here, I guess!
That's what the Silver Horn is. It's an inn, but it's also a place to heal and get stronger in. Anyone can stay, for however long they need to. I hope that I'm able to help them.
The grand opening is tomorrow, but since I know some people can't make the visit, I wanted to take everyone for a tour! [Kazuki stands up, and Sarge stands up with him to follow.] Let's go, Sebastian!
[In order to spare you a ton of narration, I'll summarize:]
[Kazuki takes the camera into the inn first. He shows off the dining room, the kitchen, and the sitting room. He peeks into the communal bath, and quickly shows us the soundproofed music room, complete with upright piano. Then he goes upstairs, and walks through a couple of the rooms. Each of them has a small attached bathroom.]
[Then he takes everyone outside. Adjacent to the main building is a large garden. There are flowers here and there, but the main focus is on fruits and vegetables, herbs, and berry bushes. A trail leads away from the property, and towards a small lake in the distance. Along this trail, Kazuki points out several Pokemon dens in different places, such as burrows and hollows in trees. The lake itself is gorgeous and clear.]
[Throughout the tour, Kazuki's Pokemon are everywhere, and he explains the different jobs they've all taken up to help run the inn. In the kitchen, the laundry, the garden, the trails... His Pokemon are involved in every aspect of the Silver Horn. There's a strong sense of teamwork there, that they're all supporting each other.]
That's pretty much everything, right? [Kazuki looks back at the camera, and it bounces in a nodding motion.] Thanks for your time, everyone. And thanks again for all your help. I couldn't do it without you!
I hope to see you all soon!

Bring whatever you want, whenever you want, with as many Pokemon as you want!
no subject
Is it okay if I stay a couple nights? Nimbus will probably need some time to recover. I'd be happy to help out around the hotel if you need?
no subject
Yeah, of course! We can always use help in the gardens, or the kitchens. Or just cleaning up in general.
Video moving to Action
[Before her cash runs out is the unsaid ending to that sentence.]
I'm more than happy to do some odds and ends around the place! I'll go work out the best flight route there and see you tomorrow!
[THE NEXT DAY - ACTION]
[Nimbus circles the inn and surrounding area so Hermione can get a fantastic bird's eve view of all the hard work Kazuki has put into the inn, and she's in awe. He comes down to land gently near the entrance, letting her off before he goes fluttering off to the nearest lake for a drink and a rest. Drinking in the sight of the inn, Hermione smiles widely and makes her way inside.]
Hello? Kazuki?
no subject
Hermione?
[The voice came from inside. Kazuki opened a window on the second floor and leaned out to greet her himself.]
Welcome to the Silver Horn! Stay right there, I'll come downstairs!
Ack I'm so sorry for some reason I thought I'd replied to this!
The place looks wonderful! The videos and pictures don't do it justice.
Do you think you could take me on a proper tour? I'd love to see everything! Is there anything you need help with while I'm here? I'm happy to help out, especially since you've only just opened...
no worries!
no subject
Room for one please, if you have one available.
[She knows they do, but she just wants to give Sebastian an experience.
Also, is it okay if I let my pokemon out to roam around outside? I've been on the road a fair bit, so I haven't been able to let them all out together for a while...
no subject
By all means, let them out! There's plenty of space out there. There's a lake nearby too, if you have any Pokemon that like it underwater better.
