[video | action for a park in Goldenrod | backdated to 12/22]

[exeggutorhead]

[When Envy turns on the camera, the feed is mostly taken up by black feathers and yellow beaks...and one disgruntled ex-homunculus from the shoulders up. Said shoulders are taken up by two smallish, clearly young Murkrow, with a third perched on his upper left arm and clacking its beak, vying for the spot of one already on a shoulder. An older Murkrow, distinct in that she appears to have a fine dusting of glitter on her feathers and several bangled bracelets on her, is perched directly on top of his head and looks immensely pleased with herself. Judging by the amount of cawing in the background, there are a good number more offscreen.]

I'd ask who owned the Murkrow that landed me with all of these, but I'm pretty sure I know who it is. Get in touch, will you?

And if anybody in Goldenrod happens to have some glitter or shiny anything handy, I could use it. I'm in the south park, covered in birds, can't miss me.

[ When Walter sees the feed, he just immediately looks over at Darkness. Who also looks incredibly smug and puffs his chest out. He gives himself a moment to bury his face in one hand before mentally regrouping and calling Envy, Darkness fluttering to his shoulder. At the sight of his beautiful mate and their wonderful children, he caws in delight. ]

How many are there?

Oh, oh, um! I've got some tinsel!

[Frisk holds a bag up to the camera, clearly already opened and only half full. What this child was using it for...well, who knows, but a bunch of it is in their hair for some reason.]

Will that help?

[veggie_vamp]

Not to worry, I have lots of bling! I can be there ASAP!

[AH YES, HERE'S...Envy actually still doesn't know this guy's name. Whoops.]

Ten or eleven, they don't stop moving.

[He is So Done.]

[ He's so sorry Mr. Lyra's Trainer. ]

Ah...what do we do about...this? I don't intend to have Darkness neglect his offspring. [ He's never dealt with owning a pet before coming here, let alone having said pet produce a small...flock of children. But he's very willing to accept responsibility for this. He couldn't just...leave a child. Without any sort of care or nurturing. At the mere mention he got a disgruntled look from said Honchkrow. ]

Mine! Mine!! [ If a bird could sound possessive HE SURE JUST DID THEN. ]

...what in the world....?

[...What the...]

How come all the birds came to sit on you like that?

[Oh thank god for the weird always-helpful kid.]

Yeah, that outta get at least some of them distracted. Do you know the park I'm talking about?

[exeggutorhead]

[BLESS YOU, DRACULAURA. Envy's relief that people with shiny things are coming to help him out is palpable.]

That'll work great, just...uh. I wouldn't bring anything you're too attached to, because chances are they're gonna keep it.

[These are Lyra's children, he suspects they'd peck out an eye to keep a claimed treasure.]

Video

[exeggutorhead]

Guess who apparently got busy and didn't let anyone know.

[Envy's voice is just. Deadpan.]

[Lyra caws in smug satisfaction from his head. Look at all of her children.]

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

Because I'm pretty sure they're all the kids of the one who's actually mine.

[UGGGHHH LYRA WHY DID YOU DO THIS. The glittery one on his head bobs her head and caws smugly.]

[ Video ]

[exeggutorhead]

What, who said anything about neglecting offspring?

[Lyra lets out a forceful croak of her own. There will be no such thing happening with her and her love's children. Envy glares up at her as much as he can.]

I just said that wasn't happening, Lyra, get your talons out of my scalp.

[Another croak, more satisfied. That's right, she's the boss around here.]

I'm not sure these two are going to let them go anywhere, at least not if we want to keep our eyeballs.

[ Video ]

[11121_assumption]

I don't know how this works. I would offer to keep some of them but I don't have a home, and it would be cruel to confine them to a ball or a box.

[ Darkness is twittering happily to his darling. Oh yes, she was the boss. No doubt their children are safe with her, the deadly nightshade that she is! ]

Are they wild, since neither of us captured them directly, or are they considered 'captured' from having captive parents?

[Video]

[better2do]

[His eyes go so wide they almost seem like they're going to pop right out.]

That many? At - at the same time?!

video - action

[veggie_vamp]

No worries! I'll be there soon!

[When she does eventually skip up with a Persian - with a shiny, shiny jewel in its forhead - she's decked head to toe in... fake jewelry. But she polished it! Fake rings, fake necklaces, fake anklets, fake bracelets, but it shines with a real gleam.]

Hiii~!

Video

[a_sin_for_him]

Good god, how many are there?

Video

[coolskeleton_95]

WOWIE! I BET THEY COULD CARRY YOU OVER MORE THAN A SHORT GAP!

[gainedlove]

Th' one with th' big fountain, right? And th' pond? I'll be there soon!

[From off-screen a 'Flaa!' can be heard before Frisk starts scrambling to get things together.]

[action]

[no_ufo_ending]

<sub>[Snap!]

[Henry is nearby, bundled for the weather and just...taking this in. He waits until Envy is done talking on his 'gear before waving him and his literal mob over.]</sub>

I want to take a photo of the little ones in a row. Do you think we can manage?

[ Video ]

[exeggutorhead]

I don't think they're exactly wild, they're not acting like it...but I haven't seen any balls around.

Unless they're hidden somewhere, which I wouldn't put past Lyra.

[He glances upward again. Lyra merely preens one wing, noncommittally. No answers from her.]

I do live in a house, we've always got a lot of Pokemon out and running around...

video;

[exeggutorhead]

Right, that's the one. I can see the fountain from here. I doubt I'll be hard to find in this mess.

[He puts the 'Gear down, since he figures the kid'll be here soon. And, given the raucous noise of twelve Murkrows, he really shouldn't be difficult to find in the park once they get there.]

Video

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy, not for the first time, tries to get a headcount. They just all keep moving.]

At...least ten. I'm not exactly sure.

This HAS to be more than one clutch.

action

[exeggutorhead]

[With all that jewelry glinting in the sun? Fake or not, the babies can't tell the difference enough to care.]

[As one, they rise off of Envy...and head straight in Draculaura's direction, trying to land on her and tap at the jewelry with their beaks. At least they're little, so their claws won't really scratch as they try to hang on...]

Woah, careful of the beaks!

[HE HADN'T THOUGHT SHE'D BE WEARING IT ALL.]

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

I'm not sure about all at the same time, this has to be more than one clutch of eggs...

[At least he HOPES so. He doesn't want to think about Lyra having eleven egg clutches and hiding them until they hatch on the regular. That could...get real out of hand, real fast.]

Video

[exeggutorhead]

I really don't think I'd trust this bunch to carry me anywhere, their mother's bad enough.
