[002]- Ecruteak Inn (Video/Action)

[brokencode]

[Angel held up a small hand, waving to the screen that she faced. Since the last time she posted, her cheeks had filled out a little, and the shadows beneath her eyes had faded. While the ghosts of whatever had befallen her in another life still remained -- her eyes are still sad, and the hair on the side of her head has yet to make any significant strides growth wise -- this time, she was smiling at whoever found her feed.]

[Also since her last post, her flock had increased. Behind her, a blue flabebe floated by, occasionally brushing over Angel with her flower. Each time, Angel's eyes crinkled, a laugh catching in her throat. An eevee, still rather young, rested in her lap, napping pleasantly. A sentret scurried around beside her, chasing after Mari in a simple game of tag.]

Hello, friends. It has been awhile since my last post. [At the sound of her voice, each pokemon stopped what it was doing, giving her a quick glance before going about their business once more.] I figured it best to post something a bit more positive after my last... announcement.

I am doing well. I am happy and safe and I have a great many friends. [The flabebe gave a cheerful cry, reaffirming her statement] But that does not mean that I am not welcome to more friends, of course!


I just... wanted everyone to know. There are so many wonderful people here, and I would love to get to know you under better circumstances so... take this as your invitation to talk to me! Whenever you want!

[Oh man, what is this positive bright energy? Hunk grins.]

It's nice just hearing someone's is having a good day.

[brokencode]

Isn't it? [Angel offered a small laugh and another, more personal wave.] Hello, new friend. My name is Angel! I hope you are enjoying yourself as well as I am.

[yellowbellied]

Nice to meet you, Angel! I'm Hunk. It was kind of a rough start but it's all pretty good now. I haven't been here that long though, so everything's kind of new and exciting. How long have you been here?

[ Okay. You look familiar. ]

Soooo. Uh. What's...your name again?

[brokencode]

[Angel could say the same to him. But then, she'd spent years staring at people, and weeks doing the same here in Johto. It was a wonder that more people didn't look familiar to her.]

My name is Angel. And yourself?

[atlasrising]

I'm, I'm Rhys.

[ Angel. Angel. Ooh, he knows about you! ] Okay, I have a really bad question to ask right now. Is your dad...?

[Snake wasn't usually the kind of guy to socialise but why the hell not? She seemed friendly enough and knowing more people meant possible battles, right?]

Hey. What Pokémon have you got?

[Yep. It's always about the Pokémon.]

[brokencode]

[Angel perked up. She glanced at her friends, mouthed a few things to herself, and then turned back to her communicator with an enthusiastic smile.]

I have an eevee, a flabebe, a sentret and my precious little Mari here! [Mareep let out a delighted bleat at the praise.] What about you?

[cardboard_boss]

I've got a Mightyena, Arcanine, Arbok, Nidoqueen, Pidgeot and a Meowstic.

[Quite a variety, considering he enjoyed collecting lots of Pokémon.]

[Ah! It's you again! Jane smiles brightly at the happy scene. Behind her, Dinah the Audino seems to have taken all the pillows and blankets on Jane's bed at the Inn and turned herself into a cozy burrito. Brrr, it's getting colder lately...]

Hello again! Goodness, you're looking well!

[Video]

[brokencode]

Oh? [Angel squinted at her own reflection, head tilted to the side in the slightest bit. She hadn't really noticed it.] That is sweet of you to say, Jane.

How have you been?

[Video]

[cyan_maid]

[A cheerful disposition also does a lot of good for a person.]

I've been well! My Pokemon and I are working hard, and I'm thinking of helping out at a farm here near Violet City! The monks here are apparently short of hands on harvesting grapes, and I figure it can't hurt to help. What about you?

[veggie_vamp]

okay, let's gab! I looove a good gab!

Video

[brokencode]

Okay. Gabbing. That's what we're doing. [Angel paused, deep in thought.] How long have you been here?

Video

[veggie_vamp]

I got here in October!

[Pause.]

... Oh, hey, I guess that means I've been here a year!

Voice

[meowbel]

I'm just glad that you're feeling a lot better! I don't know what was going on the last time around but you know I'm definitely going to keep on bothering you!

[She said with a giggle]

You know that right?

Voice

[brokencode]

[Angel couldn't help herself. There was something incredibly innocent and sweet about the girl on the other end of the line that she had to join in the laughter.]

I should certainly hope you will. I quite enjoyed talking with you before, after all.

Voice

[meowbel]

Then all the more reason for the both of us to talk more! But how have you been? It seems like you're a lot happier than before!

[Or at least, Mabel sure hoped so]

Anything exciting happen to you as of late?

[There's a knocking on the door that Angel will probably recognize by now as the sound of a Combusken beak peck-peck-pecking at waist-height against the wood. Krieg and Murder Chicken have gotten into the habit of checking in with Angel before they leave the inn for their daily ramble outside of town, and to invite her along if she feels like going out. It is once again that time of the morning, and so - impatient - Krieg asks through the door:]

Who's ready for a spine-tingler??

[Summer has moved over for autumn in a big way. The once green trees are now almost all bright orange and red and yellow, and the morning air is crisp in a way he's rarely experienced on Pandora.

If the weather continues to insist on getting colder, he might have to start wearing a scarf.]

[action]

[brokencode]

[Angel lifted her head, glancing from her device and to the door. Even before he spoke, she knew what he was there for. She hadn't realized just what time it was, and felt a little guilty for starting a conversation that she couldn't follow up on.]

[But she wasn't about to miss the morning walk.]

Almost ready!

[Angel swung her legs off of the bed, feet finding her shoes with little effort. She stood up and opened the door, offering the large man and his pokemon a smile.]

Sorry about that.

[action]

[fuelthefire]

[He would willingly wait a lot longer than that for her, but he's glad he doesn't have to. The inn was not built with people as tall and as broad as he is in mind, so he has to hunch over uncomfortably whenever he's indoors.

He grins under his mask at the sight of her smile, and moves out of her way so that she can actually step through the doorway. Murder Chicken, meanwhile, gets right up in her space to greet her enthusiastically and ask for pats.]

Mnuahaha! It's a good day for a good day!

[a_sin_for_him]

I'm glad to see you're acclimating to this world.

[brokencode]

I am glad to be acclimated.

How are you?

[a_sin_for_him]

It really doesn't take very long.

Oh, I'm fine. I've been rather busy, I run the little radio show that re-debuted last weekend, as well as working the circus and other Halloween events this month.

[journalname]

I am glad to hear it!

[Asgore smiles; he's looking happier himself, since their last chat.]
