video | action for Olivine

[Another video feed with Ironhide. Though, this time, he seems much more pleased with current events. He's seated on the floor, between his Growlithe, and his Aggron, examining a little green creature busily chewing on his boot toe.]

Huh. Not what I expected. Not sure I mind...

[Yep. His Christmas egg finally hatched. As he sits there, actually, genuinely smirking, the baby pokemon decides it's a good time to climb up one of his big arms, and perch on his shoulder.]

[It's a Scyther. A slightly different color of Scyther...]

I have just the name for you, kid.

[Apparently he's either unaware he turned the 'gear on, or he's feeling in an exceptionally good mood. Because he reaches up to tap the little bug on the nose.]

Best live up to it, Sideswipe.

I try.

... Yeah?

... Thanks. For stickin' around.

[... Crap. Now he feels bad for thinking of leaving. Even for a short time.]

Yeah. Sure thing.

Once the winter's over, we'll get goin', okay?

...

You mean that?

Well yeah. That was always the plan, wasn't it?

...

If it was... it was not clear.

Oh. Uh. Sorry about that.

Then... I will tell Heather I will see her after winter.

Awesome. I've been wanting to see her for forever.

Yeah.

So have I.

Besides, we can't get all our badges just sittin' here on our afts.

About time you started seeing things my way.

Give me some credit, old man. I'm not ready to settle down just yet.

Huh.

Could have fooled me.

What's that supposed to mean?

Not sure. What do you think it means?

I dunno. Just thought you were maybe implying something.

Guess not.

[Honestly, he doesn't know if he was or not. He was just talking.]

I guess that is givin' you too much credit, isn't it?

At least in this area.
