video; backdated to just after Lost World Wraps

[This is very clearly not meant to be video. For one thing, it's featuring Shiro's tiny closet of a bedroom. For another, this man has obviously just woken up. His hair is sticking up at weird angles, he's trying to blink his eyes hard enough to keep them open.]

[What is this. Was he sleeping?]


Did ... did we win? The big - [A sort of floppy hand gesture.] Big Suicune thing? Did we win?


[Behold, the end result of extended use of Mega-Evolution. Exhaustion for trainer and pokemon both.]

[Please send coffee.]

She was, yes. Pretty sure she's Dimitri's kid, you know the guy? He was looking out for her.

[Eda's smile falters as she shrugs.] Yeah, it kind of just faded out into a fog. The others didn't do that, though, they're sticking around.

[One of them followed Eda out of the cavern. She has no idea what her Meowstic said to spark that... But right now, she's more concerned about Shiro.]

You have anyone around who can help you out if you need anything?

[shiro2hero]

Dimitri's kid? [Well, that's impressive. He didn't actually know Dimitri had a kid. Grant, yes. But wow - good for Dimitri.] Yeah, I know him. He's a good friend.

Guess we've got a lot of new pokemon to catalogue, huh? I know a couple people who're going to have a field day with that.

[But hey, things turned out all right, didn't they? Better than expected once they were down there.]

Yeah, I'm fine. Actually surprised someone hasn't burst in here yet.

[mamalike]

I can't really say I blame them. I'm not jumping to do all that research, but those pokemon are really something else. There was something so wild about that group, you know? It's cool.

Good, good. Oh, I'm Eda, by the way. Although I'm pretty sure we've met before, just... Differently. [a light smirk] I hope that staircase rollercoaster was as fun as it looked at the time.

[shiro2hero]

Maybe I'll head down there eventually. See if I can lend a hand, exploration-wise.

[It is cool. It's very cool, and Shiro is a big sucker for cool new places to poke around in.]

Nice to - [Oh. Okay. Definite color creeps into his cheekbones.] - Uh. Right. That uh.

Sorry about that.

[mamalike]

[She laughs.]

Are you kidding me? I still think it looked like a good time.

[shiro2hero]

Hey, if you want to recreate it, be my guest.

I'll just be over here. Decomposing in embarrassment.

[mamalike]

You're pretty serious, huh? Come on, it's not like you either of us were exactly ourselves, or well... You know what I mean.

[shiro2hero]

So I've heard.

I'm also remembering everything else that happened. And... would like to leap back into the dinosaur hole.
