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.]

It's really hazy. I remember all of us getting together and dividing up the plan of attack. Or... diplomacy.

[Then things got jumbled up.]

Oh yeah? Did one go with you?

[questioneverything]

[Romelle gave a somewhat nervous laugh and, as if on cue, a strange ghostly cry sounded behind her.

Oh, look... a giant... Misdreavous? Kind of?]

It won't stop following me!

[Romelle's voice sounded a little strained. Clearly, ghost types weren't really her forte. But, she was trying!]

[shiro2hero]

... Uh.

[Well that's alarming. Even for him, who's used to ghost type pokemon by now.]

Do you need help? I can send Haunter over. [To wherever she is. His Gengar can probably do something - and as far as ghosts go, the big guy's pretty friendly.]

[questioneverything]

[Did she need help? In her mind, yes. But in the Futter Mane's mind? The ancient creature looked almost insulted. It liked this human. She was amusing.]

I don't know? [She sounded uncertain.] It hasn't hurt me. It just... keeps stalking me... [And doing jumpscares at her, but... really, she was kind of embarrassed to admit that at the moment. She should be better at handling that, right?]

I think... it wants to stay.

[shiro2hero]

Maybe... Haunter could help translate? It's pretty good with charades.

[Maybe if they open up the lines of communication, that would help everyone.]

[And help teach a new pokemon how not to scare the humans too badly.]

[questioneverything]

Oh... that is actually a really good idea. [Haunter had hands, after all. This Flutter Mane did not. Romelle nodded, and the Flutter Mane looked between the tiny human in her device and her for a moment before imitating the movement. Except, it was nodding its whole body.]

[shiro2hero]

Sure thing. Let us know when you're ready.

Haunter loves meeting new friends.

[questioneverything]

Thanks, Shiro. I appreciate it a lot.
