After dealing with the guild being a pain for a bit, I've finally gotten the thread up for everyone interested. For newcomers and participants of the last Dreams RP, I present to you the Pokémon Dreams Reboot thread! Go nuts and have fun!
After watching her Starly and Bounsweet enjoy each others company in the beautiful garden, Evelyn eventually snapped out of her cutificaiton-overload-stupor. Recalling both of the little critters back in their respective pokéballs, she proceeded to take a stroll about the place herself, enjoying the sights and smells.
Sights and smells and... Sounds...?
"Hm?"
There was a lot of noise coming from the big, impressive and perhaps over-compensating manor. Or rather, from behind it. Was something amiss? It seemed very turmultuous back there. And, being a girl from a town taht thrived on gossip, the blonde couldn't contain her curiosity to sneak a peek at whatever was going on back there.
With all the skillful stealth of a wall-mounted refrigerator, Eve made her way around the corner of the building, and soon came face-to-face what with a most peculiar spectacle. A buncha people were running all over a pleasant-looking area, trying desperately to set things up in preperation for... A party? Some kind of event? A private shin-dig? Whatever they were working, there was a loud fellow barking insulting orders at everyone, as if he was compelled to end every issued command with a stinging remark as per some obligatory contract... He... Didn't seem very pleasant...
There was another fellow of note though. A much older one, who seemed a lot less intidmidating - or at least less abrasive - judging by his behavior and appearance. He reminded Evelyn of a the stereotypical 'old gardening gramps' stereotype. But , for whatever reason, the old foget was motioning for her to come over.
Why?
Was she getting in the way? Perhaps she shouldn't have come back here. After all, as far as Eve knew, this could be private property and she was trespassing. Or maybe he was just going to tell her to leave quietly without making a big stink about the whole affair? He seemed to have noticed something about the young traienr though, and as she had been both spotted and beckoned over, there was nothing for it except to bite the bullet and see what it lead to.
Moving on over with a calm, measured and unflustered stride, Evelyn made her way over to the elderly gentleman, greeting him with a raised hand and a friendly, though subtle and soft smile, as she got close.
"Good day, sir. Did you want to talk to me about something?" She asked in her usual, polite-enough tone of voice. "Am I oerhaps getting in the way? I didn't mean to snoop, I just heard a large commotion when I was walking by and, well, I wanted to see if everything was alright back here." ... A partial white lie... She was most assuredly snooping, but not entirely out of morbid curiosity. After all, someone could've needed help!
Thus, Evelyn éngaged the old garderner in friendly conversation.
Will post either today, or tomorrow, depending on RL stuff and time. Also, did I miss something in the last post? I don't recall Tristan being at the same spot as Evelyn... I should really re-read your previous post.
Had to re-read my own last one, just to remember what Eve was even doing other than being in FlorasUng. I am bad at 'membering stuffz.
@Remram Real life always comes first, and goes that double for taking care of yourself when there's a lot on your plate. So no worries, you just take care of number one, king.
Took a bit longer to get around to making this post, due to going back to work this week after a month off. Been a bit more tiring than I'd figure,d but hey, at least I got something up before the weekend.
I didn't really spellcheck it though, so if there're any obvious, glaring flubs, ahm sorreh. I'll probably go through it tomorrow after work again and touch things up. But for now, time to get some sleeps.
EDIT:
There, I fixed some of the stuff I could find. The worst of it, anyway.
While what followed the immediate capture of the small berry-like pokemon was a moment of silence, it was eventually interupted by the quiet, muted and under-volumed noise escaping from the blonde trainer's lips. Before she completely forgot about all decorum and pretenses of pride, and promptly scampered over to the pokeball - now on the ground - like an excited child bum-rushing the presents underneath a Christmas tree. And who could really blame the girlf or her excitement? Up until now, all other of her catches had been nerve-rattling, spine-tingling, breath-holding tests of endurance, having tow watch the capture device shake once, twice and finally thrice... But with this little? It had only taken one shake. A single rattle. Like it had wanted to join her! This was obviously not true, but let's let the girl dream, shall we?
Picking up the tiny red and white sphere, Evelyn's eyes sparkled like gold in struck by sunlight, staring in a mesmerized stupor at her team's latest addition. Until, y'kmow, she finally had her brain catch up with what she was doing and how she was acting, and she put a hand infront of her mouth, letting out a small cough, then straightening her posture and getting rid of that whole 'uwu-girl' look she was giving off.
When Rotom piped up, letting her know that a fresh stack of pokedollars had been added to her account, and asking if she wnated to name the little critter, Evelyn just sighed.
"I haven't given any of the others a silly nickname, so why would I start now? Do you have, like, a setting or option that can be set so you won't ask this every time I catch a new pokemon?" It wasn't a real question, but if such a function existed, welll, that would be nice.
Still, no more time was spent on chastising the living phone for doing its job, it was time to meet the freshest face of her crew! With a flick of her wrist, the ball sailed up into the air, before burping out a stream of light, and the small fruit-pokemon was now released. Standing(?) on the ground infront of Evelyn, looking just as happy and oblivious as it had when it'd been pinged in the noggin' by a random sphere moments ago.
"Boun? Boun! Bounsweet!" It looked around, then hopped happily in place, like it was a bouncy-ball toy or somehting. Eve's heart melted.
"Oh my goooosh, you're so cute! C'mere, you!"
She knelt down and picked the little being up, held it in her arms and gave it a squeeze against her own chest. The pokemon let out a happy noise, that almost sounded like a mix between gurgling and giggling... Which... Was a bit unsettling if you were anyone except for the starry-eyed Evelyn at this moment, but thankfully, nobody else was really close by enough to hear... Right?
"Boun! Bounsweet-boun!" "Mmmhmmhmm~ You're so tiny and squishy... And you smell amazing too. I just know we'll be the best of friends in no time, Bounsweet." "Booouuun! Bouboubouboun~!"
As Evelyn was reveling in her newly acquired friend though, one of her pokeballs stirred. With an unwarranted and unwanted 'bzzooorrrt', another of Eve's companions decided to - at their own volition - emerge and greet the new addition. And, surprisingly, it was her previously most recent catch - the little Starly, the one she caught back in Starburr.
"Wha-- Hey! Don't just come on out on your own like that." "Strrr! Strrly!" "Boun? Bou~n?" "Strrly! Strrly-ly!"
Starly apparently was content with circling over Evelyn's head. Botht eh trainer and her berry-mon looked at the little bird as it performed its oddly vulture-circling-esque shennanigans just above them. Eventually, Eve sat Bounsweet down, and the moment she did, Starly swooped down and landed next to the little morsel. The bird stared at the fruit, and the fruit stared with a stupid goofy smile at the bird.
It seemed the two were having a discussion(?) of some sort. However, since Eve didn't know how to speak pokemonese, she could only stand and stare at the adorable sight. In fact, so stinkin' adorable was it that she forcefully nabbed Rotom and began snapping pics of the little pair as they engaged in their little pokemon pow-wow. Well, at least she was happy and having fun.
... But unbeknownst to Evelyn, the gears of fate had finally decided it was time for her to actually do something other than self-indulgent self-gratification for once.
And so...
A sudden and completely random event just so happened to happen!
