☘ 039; [video/action for goldenrod/dated 7/27]

[solas_ion]

[In the middle of the night there is quite a loud noise of scrambling and vivid cursing in archaic Gaelic and Whatever-Johto-Speaks-ese, originating from Lancer's room in the breeding center. In the chaos his Pokegear is knocked off the nightstand, and this mess is now broadcast for anyone to witness.]

WHAT IN THE HELL IS THAT?!

[This outburst may possibly be justified, because despite the odd angle of the recording one can in fact see a large Aerodactyl perched on the end of his bed. How it got in there is anyone's guess, but the open window might be a clue.]

[And it looks angry. But then again if your mouth was nothing but teeth you'd probably look angry too.]

[Needless to say, this was a harsh wake-up call at Bullshit O'Clock, and Lancer is more than mildly disturbed.]

[More so when the intruder appears to have latched onto his head with those teeth.]

Scathach, do something, don't just sit there-- [A well-meaning Deino lunged from offscreen with a Bite attack...regretfully connecting with her trainer's arm rather than the formerly fossilized assailant attached to his head.]

NOT ME, DAMMIT--ATTACK THIS GODDAMN THING, NOT ME!

[...boy, that doesn't seem to be going well. It was probably merciful that the video cut out before it got worse.]

[The noise woke her, of course. She and Matches the Charmander peek in to see-]

Eeep! A...A monster!

CHAR! [Matches takes a defensive stance. MUST BE POWERFUL FIRE TYPE.]

[solas_ion]

A LITTLE HELP, PLEASE?!

[He'll just be trying to pry the winged nightmare off his head with one arm while waving the other trying to shake off his less-than-clever Deino.]

[red_roses]

[Ib's scared, too scared to give an order. Thankfully Matches knows what to do. Have some fire. Well, a good amount of fire.]

[VIDEO]

[diamondo]

[You know, leaving the 'Gear on in the middle of the night is not one of Mondo's better ideas. Hopefully he got out of the room before the noise woke his brother up, whoops.]

Shit, man, are you okay!?

[...Of course, he's going a great job keeping his own voice down...]

[solas_ion]

[When he's finally able to answer, Lancer is a scratched up and ever so slightly singed mess.]

Believe it or not? I've had worse.

[diamondo]

[Yikes, that doesn't look good...]

Worse? What could possibly be worse than a dinosaur attack?

[And getting bit by one of those bitey dragons?]

[ghostytrainer]

[John can do nothing but just stare at the screen. Wow that's...]

[That's something.]

[Suddenly he's even more glad than he was before that the only fossilmon to find its way inside his hotel room was a nice one.]

Uh... okay, well I am going to go ahead and ask the obvious because I am not sure what else to really say to this. So, here goes: Dude, are you okay?

No, you are obviously not because you had an Aerodactyl decide that your head would be a great chew toy. So better question: you are still alive after that, right?

[riastrad_ridire]

[When he's able to respond Lancer is a disheveled, singed, scratched up mess.]

Sure I am. It's a lot tougher than that to kill me.

video;

[ghostytrainer]

Oh good. Though... I guess technically you wouldn't have stayed dead anyway but still! That would have been a terrible way to go even if we can't actually die.

[Just because it's not permanent doesn't mean death doesn't suck.]

So uh... did you get rid of it then?

[Video]

[moveslikestrider]

[He silently laughs for a second before he forms up a response.] Probably a good idea not to sick a blind dragon at your problems. Or at least give them a wing man. Still with us?

[Video]

[riastrad_ridire]

She was the only one around.

[wow someone looks like hell tonight.]

But it'll take more than a pissed off dinosaur and a dragon with bad aim to kill me.

[Video]

[moveslikestrider]

Not like we can die here, anyway. [He hears a crash behind him and takes a second to check then goes back to ignoring it.] By dragon bites aren't...too bad. Depends on how big they are. Salamence would definitely put a hurt on you.

[Video]

[francia]

[France's expression is openly concerned and disconcerted. He clears his throat to relieve some of his sympathetic nervousness at the very beginning of the transmission before speaking.]

Are you alright? What was that?

[Video]

[riastrad_ridire]

I have no goddamned idea.

[Have a singed and bitten to hell Lancer. What up.]

[Video]

[francia]

[France whines sympathetically at Lancer's state.]

This place gets worse every day.

[Good job, France. You're such a cheery sort.]

Have you sought medical care yet?

[video]

[paladinlost]

...The next time we find ourselves in the same city, I'm buying you drinks.

[Because Lancer looks like he'll need them, and it's not as if Cecil can actually help.]

[video]

[riastrad_ridire]

Good plan. I could sure as hell use one right now.

[video]

[paladinlost]

Did your Deino finally manage to find the right target?

[From the look on Lancer's face, he expects that's a 'no'.]

Video;

[sifukatara]

What-- how did it even get inside?! Are you alright? [These things are literally like everywhere. Katara is about this ready to check her closet in the hotel before she goes to sleep tonight, IF SHE EVER DOES.]

Video;

[riastrad_ridire]

Yeah, I'm alright.

[Just, y'know...bleeding. And a little burnt, however the hell that happened.]

video

[tendered]

That's an Aerodactyl! They're usually noted for their ferocious temper and wrathful attempts to kill pokémon by biting necks.

But this guy see-[ Wait. never mind. That face is kinda scary. ]

T-that face.... [ Averting her eyes from the feed rn. ]

video

[riastrad_ridire]

You okay, kid?

[A bit later, the bloody and slightly burned mess would be asking if Momo was okay. Good priorities, Lancer.]

Re: video

[tendered]

I'm fine! But are you? You look really beat up! [ Momo looks a bit haggard, but she's fine. Just been exerting 100% all the time... Ooops. ]

video;

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Saber's scrambling to get dressed when she answers, so don't mind her too much Lancer... ]

A dragon?! [ ... Sadly she's not the best at guessing with limited information. ] I will fetch a blade!

video;

[riastrad_ridire]

[Close enough, really. He'll just be over in his room having a fit.]
