7 - Video / Action for Violet

[show_my_cannons]

[This should probably be a familiar scene by now, Jhoto. The inside of a Pokemon Center, with someone sprawled out and unconscious in bed, their attentive pokemon watching them the entire time. In this case, it's Egg, curled up in an armored ball, and looking up at his trainer every so often.]

[But nothing seems to be happening. If anything, Egg probably switched the 'gear on by accident, or someone else passing by did. The Lairon huffs, and lays his head back down.]

[...]

[Then, the big, scarred man on the bed starts to stir, muttering something groggily, and holding up a hand to examine it. He scowls.]

[And the feed cuts out -- thanks to Egg scrambling to his feet to greet Ironhide again.]

No. Usually it makes more.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

Geez. Don't you guys have a medic?

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

... Yeah. We do.

[The silence is just a little awkward.]

Just... never got a chance to see him, before this place took me.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

Oh. Uh. Sorry I asked.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[He only shrugs.]

How were you supposed to know?

[He shoulders a door open, blinking a little in the sun.]

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

[ He shrugs as well, and follows Ironhide outside ]

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[And once they're out there... He releases Napalm. Who promptly starts snuggling her trainer. With her face.]

[Ironhide looks uncomfortable.]

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

[ Cliff laughs a little, and gives the Onix a light shove. ]

Give the guy some space, Nay. He just woke up.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[Napalm growls a little -- it's nothing angry, though. She knocks her head against Cliff in return.]

She... really is pleased.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

She missed you.

... We all missed you.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[He glances over at Cliff, before turning back to Napalm.]

Sorry. About that.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

It wasn't your fault.

It's just good to have you back.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

... Yeah. Good to see you, too. Even if you are a cocky little aft.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

Admit it, I keep you young.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

My cannons keep me young.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

Your cannons aren't here right now, old man.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[He holds his hands up, examining them.]

... I did. A second ago.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

What are you talkin' about?

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[He goes back to reassuring Napalm that he's in one piece, absently patting her head.]

I was... myself. Felt like days. Wandering around... but I was me again. In the metal.
