☘ 050; [dated 9/1 through 9/3]

[DAY ONE; video]

[The only reason the video came on at all was due to the fact that Lancer's Pokegear was being shaken; when the image came into focus viewers would be greeted by DEAR ARCEUS WHY right in their face. Upon realizing the device wasn't going to dispense food, the fluffy creature with the million-yard stare dropped it. At a crooked angle, one could see the disaster scene on the streets of Goldenrod; a few more of the gray catlike Pokemon were going through a backpack of supplies, one hanging out of said bag halfway and another chewing on a Pokeball.]

[And a little beyond that was Lancer, trying to drag himself out from under a large pile of confused Espurrs.]


[DAY TWO; action]

[Okay. So yesterday was weird. He'd really just meant to walk to the department store for supplies and to restock the Breeding Center's kitchen, but apparently the weather (such as it was) didn't really permit that. That was fine, he'd seen weirder. That kind of thing couldn't happen two days in a row, right?]

[Closing the front door behind him, Lancer started walking down the street whistling to himself. So he lived somewhere that occasionally rained demonic cats. Whatever. It really wasn't that ba--]

[It was just around that point in Cu Chulainn's train of thought when he was struck in the face by a flying poodle.]


[DAY THREE; video/action]

[It had taken him three days, several bruises, some minor lacerations, and a lot of bandages, but Lancer made it to the Goldenrod department store. Enough was enough, and on his way back home, he decided to figure out just what was going on around here.]

[He turned on the Pokegear himself this time, video focusing on a slightly battered and annoyed Lancer with bandages wrapped around his head. He opened his mouth to say something-]

[--and that's when the Skiddo stampede came through and ran him over.]




...just kill me once and for all.

Looks like you have no luck.

[Thank you for that valuable statement, Mondo.]

Are you gonna be alright?
paladinlost: (dotdotdot)

[...Oh dear.]

Goldenrod, is it...?

[Of course Goldenrod would get adorable non-falling goat kids, right when he's finally hiding from the falling dogs with Mt. Moon's Zubats. Of course.]

...I recently bought a few bottles of a very high-quality scotch. I'll send you one the moment I return home.
paladinlost: (sighing)

[personal profile] paladinlost 2014-09-03 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
You're welcome. ...Dare I ask what caused the rest of it? Unless you were unlucky enough to get trampled twice.
paladinlost: (calm)

[personal profile] paladinlost 2014-09-03 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
The end of the world is going on. Strange weather and monsters falling from the skies, though with the usual meteors.

[That's his theory and he's sticking to it.]
paladinlost: (neutral)

[personal profile] paladinlost 2014-09-03 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it that sunny? I cannot tell.

[Hidden somewhere within Mt. Moon and all.]

We've seen worse, yes. But those moments still fit this world's tenuous logic. Barring shark hurricanes, how often have you seen Pokémon rain down from the skies?
paladinlost: (thoughtful)

[personal profile] paladinlost 2014-09-03 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
...Everyone of us woke up in this world with no idea how we were brought here, against our will. Most of us woke up in that castle with no idea how we were brought there, against our will. I can see a pattern there, even if it's not a pleasant one.
paladinlost: (sighing)

[personal profile] paladinlost 2014-09-03 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Except possibly for those poor Pokémon, as they had to find themselves up in the sky in the first place.

[A beat.]

...I suppose we should be thankful the Goomies did not arrive like this.
wing_attack: (uhh...)

[Day Two]

[So Tobias was just walking to the store to check it out, but then... well. There's a person that just got knocked over by a dog. Really he should just leave them alone, but he heads over anyway.]

You okay?

[He has a Teddiursa tugging at his pant leg - come on come on. Let's get inside!]

That doesn't change the fact that this sucks. You need any help?

[Blake is sitting on the couch with his feet up on the coffee table. Beneath said table, far in the corner, is crouched an Espurr. His Snubbull is also underneath, trying to lure it out with a cracker. She is having little luck.]

Goat troubles, huh.
aufsassig: can't stop won't stop not sure how to stop (EYES ★ girl look at that body)

[You know, Lancer, you are having such a shit day that clearly the universe just has to go out of its way to make things worse.

8D

ENJOY THIS RANDOM WILD MURKROW CIRCLING DOWN FROM ON HIGH TO LAND ON YOUR APPARENT CORPSE AND PECK AT IT WITH A WEIRD SORT OF SADISTIC CURIOSITY

SON ARE YOU DEAD YOUR PAIN SMELLS DELICIOUS]
aufsassig: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES (CONTENT ★ blah blah minds like honey)

[RUDE, ASSHOLE. Them's fighting words, anyway, and getting up while it's trying to peck away at your flesh is really an inconvenience in terms of that whole succeeding at flesh-pecking thing.

NOW, DO YOU:

1) FLAIL AROUND LIKE A MORON AND RISK HITTING THIS BIRD

2) RUN AWAY LIKE A SCARED LITTLE GIRL FROM A...what is actually apparently a two-foot high crow, good lord...AND RISK SHAMING THE NAME OF ULSTER FOREVERMORE

3) TAKE A THIRD OPTION (please specify)]

aufsassig: monetarily I'm pretty much set, actually (DEVIL ★ i'm only bankrupt in morality)

[personal profile] aufsassig 2014-09-04 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[You have chosen to FLAIL LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!

This is an excellent decision, as somewhere amidst the flailing, Lancer actually ends up giving the thing a resounding whack to the beak, which in turn sends it sailing through the air a few feet away to screech to a feathery halt on the ground.

...

Of course, now it's starting to look pissed.

THIS WAS MAYBE NOT SO EXCELLENT OF A DECISION...]
