Second Kunai: [Video/Action Cherrygrove]

[itsjustdust]

[Unlike last time he sent a message out over the network, there was no clatter. Then again, Obito was also clearly not the one holding the gear, which was rather low to the ground, the image half obscured by a bright green leaf. And there was shouting.]

Katon no! He didn't mean it! Cabbage! GUYS STOP!

[There is a dizzying moment as the gear is spun around, and the image is cleared of greenery, though it's wiggling a bit like the one holding it is laughing. Obito, holding a baby Charmander in one arm, is between his Ponyta and Deerling who look rather like they want to take a bite out of one another.]

This is way uncool! I -know- you two can get along. Is it Kiyo? [The baby charmander, who had a pretty impressive looking grip on his shirt, was lifted a little.] You were cool until Kiyo hatched Cabbage! Kinda. Okay maybe not so much, but you were learning to get on with Katon just fine!

And where's the other one..? Hyorogan! What're you doing with my gear? Wait!

[Thus, with the video still on, you finally get to see the baby Petilil as she makes a run for it with Obito's gear in hand, giggling all the way.]

[Cecil's comment is preceded by some amused laughter.]

Discovering the joys of multiple newborn Pokémon, are you?

[video]

[itsjustdust]

[There was a bit of a chase before you get your answer, but then you see first the charmander, then the unfortunate half up Obito's nose angle before the two babies were shuffled to a workable angle, the Petilil hanging onto the gear for dear life.]

Yeah, and I have another one due to hatch in a few days too. It wouldn't be so bad, but Katon and Cabbage just don't want to get along. I think Cabbage misses his old trainer, but I'm doing the best I can!

[video]

[paladinlost]

Do you have any reminders of said trainer? Another Pokémon, perhaps, or simply a physical object? He might be happier with a keepsake, and more willing to open himself to a new team.

[video]

[itsjustdust]

No, I hadn't even met him before actually. The closest I got is that my travel buddy has the same name actually. Rin was his trainer and my friend's name is Rin and I doubt that's at all helpful. Cabbage has been getting along mostly though. I understand he used to be the youngest.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Could he be jealous not that it's not the case anymore? I think that often happens with older siblings.

[video]

[itsjustdust]

Well, now he's the oldest so... Maybe? I've been trying to get him used to everyone though! It's just, er... babies.

[video]

[paladinlost]

It could be that he does not like young children. Their relationship will improve over the weeks if that's the case, at least.

[Action]

[usedswift]

There you are!

[Tenten looks less-than-pleased as she finally stumbles upon the other ninja, resting a hand on her hip and hearing her Skarmory (now carrying the rather inaccurate name 'Feng') settle into position behind her, watching the potential conflict carefully.]

Do you have any idea how long I've been looking for you, Uchiha-kun?

[Action]

[itsjustdust]

[Considering he's chasing a tiny blue plant around the room, you'll have to forgive him if he's not paying the closest of attention.] Been a bit busy.

Hyorogan! HOLD STILL!

[While he's doing that, Katon made his way over to snuffle at the girl, plainly curious.]

[Action]

[unended]

[ Joonhee was trailing behind a bit, keeping a safe distance from the uh...agitated pokémon but seeing Tenten talk to Obito he catches up. ]

Wow. [ it looks even crazier up close. ]

This is your friend? [ all the action is making Yoonjae a bit restless and she's starting to squirm in Joonhee's arms. ]

Shhh...calm down. No fighting, okay? [ he pets her lightly to try to soothe her...thankfully she listens mostly. ]

[Action]

[usedswift]

I don't think I'd call him a friend...

[She lets out a yelp of surprise and ducked reflexively as Feng opens his mouth and all but roars at the Ponyta, spreading his wings in an attempt to look (even more) intimidating.]

Gah! Feng! Do that again and you're going right back in the ball!

[Action]

[itsjustdust]

[Katon looked rather alarmed and suddenly standing nearby was much much warmer.]

What? GAH! Katon it's okay buddy, really! [Gear wrestled away from Hyorogan, he set her on Cabbage, who looked far calmer now, and hurried over to pet the ponyta to settle him down, not even holding onto Kiyo anymore, who stayed firmly attached to his clothes.]

It's been a little hectic this morning since I got in.

[Action]

[unended]

[ oh dear. this is probably not the craziest thing he's seen but it's a bit worrying. he'll just put himself between Tenten and the ponyta (well more like between skarmory and the ponyta) just in case they get more worked up. at the very least it seems like skarmory is used to him enough to not attack him. he can hope stepping between them will deter some of the aggressive behaviour. ]

I think you might want to put one or two back into their ball for now.

[ just a gentle suggestion, you know before there's a pokémon brawl. ]

*Imogen glances away from the camera.*

Omen, any useful advice.

*...It doesn't get picked up by the microphone, but given Imogen's leveled glare and following words. Probably no.*

I said useful! *Big sigh* Hey Land of Fire kid! Maybe you should start collecting them all into their Pokeballs then try to figure out why they don't get along.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

But if they're in the pokeballs they won't -learn- to get along, so I don't really see how that'd be helpful. Also? This one? [He pointed at the charmander attached to his shirt.]

No way I can make her go in a pokeball, I've been trying to coax her into it since she hatched.

[Video]

[for_realsies]

I don't mean keep them there forever, but it is easier to get each one's side of the story if they aren't actively fighting.

Well, if you can get the others away, and then it's just your Charmander and one of them, it might be easier to work out what's up?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Cabbage doesn't like that he's the oldest instead of the youngest now. I've seen it before so it's easy to spot but GAH! So cranky, all of em.

[Video]

[for_realsies]

Well, talking to each of them one at a time might help. Especially if you find things each one likes, and you do it just with them.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

That'll probably have to wait until Kiyo is willing to unlatch I think, but I'll definitely consider doing it that way!

[action]

[darkaura]

[He's a short distance off, reading his Breeder's Manual and taking notes in a notebook. Now and then, his Eevee paws at the pencil as it moves over the pages, while Sync has made itself into a pink scarf of sorts.

Rin doesn't even have to look up to know there's mayhem afoot]

Looks like you've got your hands full.

[action]

[itsjustdust]

And I have another one all set for a couple days from now and another after -that-... and then the one I just got this morning due in like, a few weeks. But still before my birthday! Oh hey you think I might be able to get an egg for then? It's not even a month off!

[He managed to get Katon and Cabbage calmed just long enough to dart after the little grass type and get his gear back.]

[action]

[darkaura]

You do know you can only keep six with you at a time, right? It's an automatic system, seven and onward get sent to a PC.

[But now he sees he will have to ask Riku about birthdays...or take notes when attending his. What do people do when they age?]

[action]

[itsjustdust]

I do! I decided the buneary egg can get stored for now cause, well, I want the other two -more- and they're eggs too so, yeah. I just gotta work out the system so everyone can hatch right? And these guys can get out of being babies.

[action]

[darkaura]

Yeah. You'll have to devise a rotation schedule or something.

[Meanwhile he's got his grand total of two 'mons]

[action]

[itsjustdust]

Exactly! I figure once the Snivy hatches I'll probably put Cabbage here away for a little while so the Buneary baby can hatch.
