Tenth Spell: "It followed me home." [Video. Open to voice/text/video.]

[behindblueskin]

It's been going on for at least a fortnight now.

Just about every time Keldor's gone out, no matter what for, there'll be a Slowpoke either waiting for him to get there or for him to return to his hotel room.

Now, this is Azalea Town and thus Slowpoke Central™, and therefore you really can't go very far without running into one of these pink lumps with their generous five watts of brain power, and you really can't prove it, but...

Keldor switches on the camera of his pokegear and aims it at the one staring blankly up at him outside the door to the hotel he's staying at; expression that of someone especially dumb.

...he's pretty sure the one he keeps running into is the exact same one.

"..................sssssssssssssssssssssssslllooooooooooooooooooooow.............?"

He sighs, but gives it a pat on its head anyways.

"You do not need to follow me about this locale. It is not necessary."

"..............................pooooooooooooooooooooooooooookeee....................?"

Once he's inside, though, Keldor stops, then wonders aloud one thing:

"Should I capture it? It does seem to desire making me its trainer."

Comments

[crystalmaster]

It sure does. I'm kind of amazed they ever do anything else.

[behindblueskin]

I would believe the same were it not for the fact that I am being followed about this little town by one of their number.

[Hey, they move. Glacially, most of the time.]

[crystalmaster]

I would say that definitely means he likes you a lot. They probably don't get up for just anybody.

[behindblueskin]

No. I would presume that they do not. Or for very much else.

[Makes him wonder just how effective one of these things would be in battle. Would they require a lot of prodding to get into gear?]

[crystalmaster]

[Radley laughs.]

Probably. I guess you could ask somebody more about them.

[behindblueskin]

This is a town filled with experts on the species. It should not be too difficult to find someone to ask.

[And they'll be overeager to talk about the subject, so Keldor had better have a few hours free in his schedule.]

[crystalmaster]

Yeah, I'll bet. I'm affiliated with an Eevee fan club here. I guess down there, they have Slowpoke fan clubs.
