4th Match // [video / action] Route 38 (November 1st)

[Today's video is focused on a Blaziken - the tall bird is reclining peacefully on the ground not too far from what seems to be a road, head propped on one hand-like claw, and very patiently tolerating a small yellow Charmander using it as a living climbing structure.

The Blaziken only moves when the Charmander starts to wobble, reaching out to steady it with its free claw.

The touching scene is sadly interrupted when the guy behind the camera speaks up, his voice a grumbling yet concerned growl:]

Torch dragons are orange. Is this one sick?

Oh yeah? Then why do you say that? Because handsome isn't really a bad thing though!

[Mabel, what have you done?! And in 5...4...3...2...1...!]

Gnnghhh...!

[Well, it has been a while since he's broken out into a good old-fashioned Psycho rant. It was only a matter of time until someone triggered another one, really.

And it's a loud one:]

HANDSOME IS THE ANTITHESIS OF GOOD AND DECENT!! IT MOCKS THE WEAK, MURDERS THE INNOCENT, AND MUTILATES THE MASSES ON A WHIM WHILE LAUGHING AT THE DESTRUCTION OF THE THING IT WANTS TO PROTECT! IT CLIMBS A MOUNTAIN OF CORPSES TO SIT ON ITS THRONE OF MISERY AND SUFFERING AND REJOICES AT THE PAIN SCREAMS CAUSED BY ITS PUTRESCENT FAKE ALTRUISM AND ITS BLOATED, FESTERING EGO!!

Whoa there, you don't need to tell me your whole life story! I mean, I wouldn't mind but that sure is a lot of stuff just to asking why being handsome is such a big deal to you!

[Seriously, look at him go ranting away!]

Mngh...If you want a story, talk to Shield Lady.

[Athena's great at telling stories! Krieg, not so much.]

Handsome Jackass can jack off!

[Krieg, pls, you're talking to a kid, here...]

[In which, Mabel simply raises an eyebrow at him]

Well, I got free time. I wouldn't mind you telling me a story!

[Pause] ...Jjjuuusssttt minus all those bad words though.

Pff...Which ones're bad?

[This is an honest question. He actually has no idea.]

Well, you know! The ones you just said before! Like that J word you used or even that C word you used too!

[Being corpses and jack off. Totally not right for a 13 year old kid to hear all right!]

[He has no idea what the "C" word she's referring to is, but he can guess pretty good on the "J" one.]

Can't not say Jackoff, he's part of the story.

Yeah but can't you just say Jack or something? I don't know if my little ears can hear something so horrible!

[...Said the girl who snarks a lot]

Jackoff is horrible.

[It's not a nice story, Mabel.]

Maybe it should wait until you're older.

[That remark is less about him caring how young or old she is and more about needling her to see how she responds, whoops.]

[For a moment, Mabel wasn't too sure if she should keep on asking. She probably shouldn't be hearing about this but at the same time, she was 13 soo....!]

Well, it's not that bad is it? I mean, you think I could just just a teeny part of it...? Just a llliittttlllleee bit?

[Because why not?]

[Is this her teenage rebellion? Ask a crazy man in a mask to tell her a horrible story not fit for young ears?]

Mngh...

[Okay, fine. Give him a minute to organize some words.]

...Once upon a time an asshole had a daughter. She died because he murdered her! Then he was killed because he was an asshole! THE END!!

[A+ storytelling skills. Marcus would be so proud. Not.]

[Well, she does hang around her Grunkle who makes her do questionable things sometimes so...!

But still, she wasn't expecting him to be that blunt. For a moment, Mabel didn't really know how to react. Instead, she just stared at the communcator in shock!]

...Ooorrrr maybe I could just pretend that I didn't hear that. I'm starting to think that's a much better option!

Pff! You asked!

I didn't know it was going to be that bad! Seriously, what kind of people have you been hanging around with anyway?

Vault Hunters, bandits, and Crimson Lance.

[So, basically all the violent ones, although probably the only word that will mean anything to Mabel is "bandits."]

Uh....I don't know what Vault Hunters and Crimson Lance are but they sure sound like they're badbutts!

[...Yyeeaaahhhh]

Mnahahahahahahaha!

[Oh, man, that was a good one. Right on the money, too. Go Mabel.]

What's your name, Kiddo?

The name's Mabel Pines! And what about you, mister? Who might you be? You have a title too, don't you?

[Because, you know, every person who is badbutts has a title!]

Pffmnahaha...Not a mister, just Krieeeeg!

[Krieg the Psycho, technically, but that's what other people call him, not what he calls himself.]

All right then, Krieeeeg! It's really nice to meet you! Don't ever think I heard of a name like that before though.

[Then ~dramatic gasp~]

It isn't some kind of super secret meaning behind it, is there?

[He laughs when she parrots his name back to him, elongated vowels and all. She seems like a Good Kid.]

I dunno. Maybe. If there is, I forgot.

[S H R U G]

Oh, I'm pretty sure you do! I can totally hear it in your voice, you so remember it!

[Because how can someone suddenly forget their own title anyway?]

[Blink.

Blink, blink.

Okay, that's a new one. He's not sure he's ever been accused of keeping secrets before?]

Nope, can't remember. I'd tell you if I did.

[He doesn't see the point in keeping things secret, honestly.]

Really, you don't? It just doesn't seem fair that all your friends get to have a title and you don't!

[Hmmmmm, this was quite the dilemma indeed. However, she just had an idea!]

Oh, oh! Maybe I can just make one for you until you remember! I think that'll be a great idea!
