☆71☆ [Video] - hella backdated to November 11

[This evening's video feed is brought to you from the lounge area of Fuchsia City's quiet, yet life-filled, Pokemon Center. A Clefairy with a rose clip on her ear holds up a Soul Badge to the recording with a "Clef clefair~" of triumph before turning around to fuss with something. After a few seconds, she presents a scarf to the camera, where sixteen badges are pinned, lined up in four neat rows.

Johto's set and the Earth Badge look a lot less polished and shiny than the rest of the Kanto set, but hey, that's what happens when getting a certain mage off his butt is a process that takes six years.

The Clefairy just smiles at the camera cutely, because look what we finally accomplished! Ryner's voice, from behind (holding) the 'gear, is a bit more tired, though.]

So. Are we done now?

[Rose preens. She picked this scarf out herself, too. Out of the mess that Ryner got a few years back, when it was practical to get one for each member of the team.]

...Ahh, right, that's a thing, isn't it.

Guess that depends on what Sion wants to do.

Girlfriend?

[there's a small choking sound for a second, while the Clefairy tilts her head curiously]

First of all, no. And second, he's a guy. What the hell is it with people jumping to that assumption all the time?

[to be fair, Ryner, you two do live together, and he does have long, very pretty hair...]

[Dave nods equanimously.]

I got you. So, boyfriend?

[Dave.]

Or just close.

What part of "first of all no"...?

[the Clefairy is giggling at her dear partner now because he's getting flustered and that's always fun]

We're best friends, for better or worse, but it's definitely not like that.

Wouldn't judge if it were, but okay, I get that, too.

[He wouldn't want to go do something that took him too far away from John, either.]

They're your badges, though, man, so shouldn't it be whatever you want to do?

Eh, they're really Rose's when you get down to it. She's the one who was into all of this, and who did all the work. I'm just the person she dragged around as her trainer.

[Rose. Heh.]

Well, what does Rose want to do then? Hey, Rose, looks like you get to call the shots.

["Fair..." The Clefairy ponders this, perhaps a little dramatically. As though she does know what she wants, but she's making a show of not telling.]

You won't tell me? Pretty please with a cherry on top.

[Weeeeeell, since you asked so nicely~

Rose picks up a convenient notebook, because she always keeps one nearby, and writes: We'll go at the same time Sion does!

Yes, the Clefairy writes.]

[Dave takes this in stride, as is his way. Also, Rose clearly has better handwriting than he does, Jesus.]

Haha, cool. Grand epic butt-kickin' adventures are always slightly more tolerable with friends on board.

[She practices a lot.]

Well, that much I can agree with, I guess.
