017 - 4th wall

[blacklodged]

[AUDIO]: Is this turning into a regular event? I'm not sure I consider myself a fan.

[Or, in other words, guess who remembers the last 4th wall! Words are spoken in a sort of tense harsh tone, because he doesn't really like this whole thing. Obviously.]

[ACTION]: Feel free to run into him absolutely anywhere between Olivine and New Bark, as he's

[Have an Andalite halfway through human morph stumbling out of the nearest Pokemon Center. It doesn't even matter what city, Ax could've been poofed there. People are throwing Pokeballs at him trying to CATCH him.]

I have already informed you I amnnnnnn--

< I am NOT a Pokemon! Please cease and desist! >

[blacklodged]

[...what is that? Luckily for you, Ax, Coop's got a pretty good head on his shoulders and recognises both part of your human morph, your voice, and the fact that you've talked about morphing powers and not being human - but he still has to make sure, even as he strides up to the blue deer-centaur-scorpion-what-even, but keeps a certain distance because you never know.]

Aximili?

[ilovemyorifice]

[Ax stumbles to a stop, gracefully though, as he completes the morph. His stalk eyes turn to Dale first. Recognizing his friend first is the primary thing keeping his tail from twitching.]

< Yes, Dale. You saw that? >

[blacklodged]

Part of it.

[He gestures at Ax to come along, so there won't be more pokéballs thrown his way. The area behind the Center near a group of trees seem okay enough on this short notice.]

[He is staring at Ax though. It's not like he can help it.]

A far cry from the alien sightings, huh.

[There seems to be a green-haired young man following you now, Cooper. And he also seems... to be chatting with every bird that happens to show up. Totally normal yup.

Eventually, he addresses Coop:] Is this a sort of thing that happens often with you? [But is he referring to the fourth wall event or the birds following him? It's hard to say.]

[Action]

[blacklodged]

[Well, that's - hello. Coop stands at a distance from the birds - so many of them, it's too unnerving for him - to watch the stranger talk to them, and to be honest? That's really not that strange. He's seen worse.]

[At being adressed, he shakes his head. He doesn't look comfortable with the situation he's in, but answers calmly.]

If you're referring to the birds, no.

[Action]

[the_nth_power]

Oh. [No human is ever comfortable when N is around.] How sad. I was beginning to think perhaps you had a connection to them. [Like the one he has. But that's wishful thinking.

He smiles as the birds move again, all fluttering toward Cooper. N just cheerfully begins to follow them.] They do seem rather fond of you though. [THERE IS AN ALARMING AMOUNT OF HOOTHOOTS. RUN, COOP, RUN.]

[Action]

[blacklodged]

[His discomfort has more to do with the amount of birds, but N does give him a slightly offhand vibe that he isn't sure how to place.]

[Not to say that he doesn't, evidently, have a connection to the birds, just ... well, no, not like the one N has. He moves away from the birds accordingly as they get closer, but remains overall composure.]

I wish they didn't. You seem like the one with a connection.

[WILD DEAD MAN APPEARS because what are physical and spacial boundaries? He is chasing his Noctowl, Doc, who seems rather drawn to Cooper. OWL LOVES YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU.]

Doc! Doc, come back here! Leave that man alone!

[action]

[blacklodged]

[NO NOT THE OWLS- Coop actually takes a few steps back in a hurried fashion because do not want owl of human size near him, at least when it's not his own and is that a skeleton, holy--]

--sir?

[He doesn't even know what to do anymore. Not at all.]

[action]

[quickattackjack]

[Jack manages to get into range and recall Doc into his pokeball before the giant owl decides to sit on Cooper's attractive hairdo.]

I am SO sorry, sir! I don't know what's gotten...into him...

[Jack notices the birds. Lotta birds. What the hell.]

Er...

[action]

[blacklodged]

[This is a positive thing because Coop would probably have legit gone into some kind of shock.]

[But ... yeah. He looks around at the birds too, before just ... staring at the skeleton again. Something is oddly familiar about him, but he can't quite place it right now. Possibly because of the lack of any features whatsoever.]

Are you alright?

[His voice, so tentative.]

[Action]

[of_france]

Cooper!

[It's France, somewhere near Goldenrod, running towards Cooper, completely stark naked aside from a conveniently placed rose, cat ear and tail utterly part of his physique. He sparkles in the light, a trail floating out behind him.]

I'm myself again!

[Action]

[blacklodged]

[Aha. So Coop's just gonna stare in a somewhat baffled sense before composing himself and just ... uh.]

You normally have a tail?

[And ears and sparkles but -- let's go with the most obvious first.]

[Action]

[of_france]

[France stops, twisting around slightly to see the tail before he turns fully back to Cooper, shrugging.]

All Nations have certain oddities. At least I don't have the spirit of Winter haunting my shadow.

[Action]

[blacklodged]

[Coop is a little relieved when France stops, because if he'd leapt into his arms or anything, he's honestly not sure how he would have reacted. ...well, probably not too much, but it would have been kind of awkward all the time.]

And the lack of clothing is part of the deal? [He actually smiles just a little asking that. He totally has you pinned, France.]

No. Just on edge. Who is this?
