[Now that the space outside of his apartment has stopped looking like the Nature Planet Neverland, Pommy's out and about in Luceti, excited to find out more about this shiny new place
( Read more... )
[Here's another self-obsessed hero, coming through!
Kazooie has a similar mission in mind as Pommy does. The biggest difference is that she's more concerned about some practical matters, like how the heck she's going to find somebody to do stuff for her here now that Banjo isn't around. Being used to rooming with someone for most of her life means that she's a little lost on her own - but she's not letting it show.
Right now, she's scoping out the bakery, wondering if anybody's got the decency to make millet doughnuts. And that's when she notices Pommy, who honestly looks like he could be a Banjo-Kazooie-style minion. He's even about the same size as an Ugger.
At least he looks like he knows something about the bakery. So Kazooie's just going to rudely interrupt his shopping.]
Hey, shorty, anything good on the menu here? Preferably something with seeds, 'cause a bird's gotta get her seeds!
[Chicken legs, actually, if Bottles is any indication.
And the speech pattern throws her for a few moments. Referring to oneself in third person is not a schtick used by anybody in Banjo-Kazooie. It's also extremely annoying.]
Seriously? Your speech pattern's almost as annoying as Gruntilda's! At least her rhymes were so stupid, they were funny...
Yeah, Pommy just got here a few days ago. Myu, you haven't seen a guy with white hair walking around here, have you? [Real specific, Pommy. You might also want to mention that he's a lot younger than most people who have white hair.] His name's Bomberman, and he's Pommy's partner! Pommy has to look after him and make sure he doesn't get into trouble!
[LIES, Pommy! More often than not, it's the other way around. But at least your presence prevents the poor guy from angsting too much over the crap he goes through.]

[... White-haired old guy? Bomberman?] ... Any relation to Sabreman or something? ['Cause that's just way too suspiciously similar.]
Guy was a hero in like, nineteen eighty-four or something. Banjo and I helped save him back on Hailfire Peaks! But that place isn't anywhere around here, far as I can tell.
[action] No worries! I understand most other people generally have things called "lives." |DbemyusedAugust 7 2011, 09:05:31 UTC
[Pommy runs a quick mental checklist of people that he knows Bomberman knows. It's not very helpful in this situation, since most of the people that Pommy's bothered to remember are female.]
M-myu, Pommy doesn't think so. Bomberman's not his real name, anyway, so they probably wouldn't be related.
[action] I'm pretty thoroughly exempt from that status actually D8talontrotAugust 7 2011, 09:15:25 UTC
Weird. Well, tell you what, Pinky. I'll keep an eye out for any white-haired guys.
[... Watch her ask white-furred things, too. Because she's more used to non-humans.
In the meantime, she heads over to the display case and grabs a poppy seed muffin, like Pommy suggested. And takes a big bite out of it right there. She would've done this even if you were supposed to pay for them.]
Hey, not bad! I could get used to these "poppy seeds"...
[action] best reason ever \o/talontrotAugust 7 2011, 09:40:27 UTC
[... Calling the Department of Redundancy Department on that last one there. But Kazooie will roll with it for now, mostly because sputtering would mean losing precious poppy seed muffin. She swallows the chunk she clipped off before responding.]
The name's Kazooie, the better half of the bear-and-bird hero duo, Banjo and Kazooie!
Myu, the name's Pommy, not Pinky! If you're going to keep being rude like that, Pommy's going take back what he said about Kazooie being cute! [Slightly confused pause.] Um, about Kazooie's name being cute!
[Yeah, because she's shown that she totally cares about your opinion. Pommy, you can't be seriously developing even the tiniest bit of a crush on a loudmouthed bird who insulted you by the third or fourth sentence she exchanged with you? You gotta get better standards, marshmallow -- or at least admit that you tend to fall for girls who are secretly (or not so secretly, in some cases) really frackin' scary.
Besides, weren't you here at the bakery getting goodies for another girl who's much nicer than Kazooie? But then again, Pommy has a big heart. Not as big as his stomach, though.]
[Note to self: This one doesn't like nicknames. Obviously this is just a reason to use them at inopportune moments.
... And she's hoping that he just omitted a word there. Though if Pommy was ever going to fall for a scary girl, Kazooie is not a bad choice. She spits grenades, hard to get much scarier than that.]
Fine, Pommy. Though I still wonder about you. Is it just bein' a ball of fluff that makes you think like that, or are you a sidekick or something? [Since sidekicks suck up to people all the time. How else do they get to be sidekicks? Except Kazooie is technically a sidekick and never does that...]
[Oh, it's not that Pommy doesn't like nicknames -- it's just that so far there's only one person he enjoys tolerates hearing them from. The guy's name starts with a "B" and ends in "omberman", and the nicknames consist of things like "creampuff", "mochi mound", "marshmallow", and "puffball". But at least he also calls Pommy by his actual name too.
...Pommy really is kind of a masochist, isn't he.
Kazooie is indeed a very scary girl, and thus well within Pommy's apparent tastes! But Pommy's other female acquaintances have included a half-demon space pirate who was once possessed by the goddess of justice, an elemental demigoddess of lightning who once managed to knock out said half-demon space pirate in a fight, and an elemental demigoddess of light who is (along with the aforementioned goddess of justice) a prime example of Light Is Not Good. Sometimes there's also an ice elemental teenage genius hanging around -- she's perhaps a little more normal than the first three gals, but her older brother/father figure was the leader of a

Myu, maybe you can try the poppy seed muffins? Pommy's new here, so Pommy doesn't really know what's good here and what's not.
[Grins.]
But Pommy will try everything eventually!

[Don't ask where Pommy got his speech patterns from. The critter barely knows what species he is.]

Kazooie's just. Gonna shrug over here.] Okay, whatever. Talk how you like. No feathers off my back.
... You're new here too, then? [Wings on this one, too. Everybody here looks like a really weird bird.]
