[countershields]

[ There is a mouse outside your house.
He seems to be hungry, so maybe you should do something.

But... what does he eat? You'll have to find out! ]

Bulbasaur! (Hey, Pikachu!)

[10_year_old_kid]

Sure has been a while, huh?

[... Since they both understand each other anyway, it's easier than doing "Bulba bulb, bulbasaur!"]

[countershields]

Pi-pikachu. Piiiii?

[rapier_ex]

-The obvious solution is to come out with a plate of carrots.-

[countershields]

[ Pikachu will be staring at those plate of carrots and nibbling on them.

For a bit. Until he realizes it's missing something vital. ]

[rapier_ex]

Do you not like carrots, little one?

[countershields]

[ He shakes his head, nope, and then attempts to pantomime KETCHUP! ]

[prodigious_mage]

. . .

[Or! Maybe you can smile in glee! Then reach down and poke it.]

[countershields]

[ He'll back away with a jump! Hey, Pikachu is not made for poking. ]

[prodigious_mage]

[so cute

Just like Mr. Dog-Bear-Stuffed-Animal-Pig Thing! Can you talk, too?!

[countershields]

Pi-ka-chu. [ Well. You're not killing him yet, bro. ]

[ignorant]

[ He stares down at it and smiles. ]

Aww, hey there little guy.

[countershields]

Pika-chuuuu! [And then, a grumbling stomach. ...Oops.]

[ignorant]

[ Aww. Yamamoto's heart is breaking! But he just so happens to have some food. ]

You hungry?

[countershields]

[ He nods, with anticipation! ]

[wise_king]

[Can thankfully speak with animals.]

Hm...can I help you?

[countershields]
