third tilt ♛ video/action for goldenrod

[loveofcamelot]

[ The feed opens to the sound of tiny feet punching through snow, and the dolphinesque giggles of a baby Pokémon. All the camera picks up is bright, glittering white, but in the background, there are heavier footfalls stuttering along, and the sound of a man's voice- ]

-said get back here! Bad- bad girl! Hand it back!

[ All at once, the camera

[Well hey there, itty bitty Smoochum; hope you were having fun jumping into snowdrifts, because you're gonna run into a little something - Chili, Soul's Snover, who saw you coming and jumped in to give you an itty bitty scare.
When Chili sees the little Pokemon hide in his snowdrift, he leaps up and gives a little shout; arms in the air and everything.]

Snover!

[And here comes Soul, all bundled up and running over to try and find his little brokemon.]

Yo, Chili! C'mon, dude, I wanna go back inside where I'm not freezing my ass off!

[Seems like Soul's been at it a bit too, Arthur; except it's because Chili likes making Soul suffer. Because he's a kid from the desert and it's snowing and cold.]

[ Smoochum squeals, a perfect mimicry of her earlier sound of fear, only this one's an accident. She's stock still for just a second, then bursts into giggles again - and plants a kiss right on Chili's face.

Arthur's not far behind her, but he spots Soul before their Pokémon. Dryly: ]

You, too?

[Steph spots him just before the snowsplosion.

I spy with my little eye "Prince Arthur losing the tickle game."

Which isn't really something you spy everyday.]

Need a hand?

I can offer you two.

[loveofcamelot]

[ The burst of snow a second later catches Arthur off-guard, but when it subsides, leaves his 'Gear visible and his Smoochum vanished again. He picks the 'Gear up and gives Stephanie a rueful look. ]

Hide and seek in the snow is her favourite game. Any good at it?

action;

[thefourthtry]

It is one of my many skills, yes.

Are you losiing?

action;

[loveofcamelot]

Dismally. I don't take kindly to being beaten by girls, especially tiny ones.

[ Sexism? No. This is chivalry. ]

[stolemyfries]

Tickling, huh? Terrible punishment. [Marceline looks a bit amused.]

video;

[loveofcamelot]

Well, I can't exactly put her in the stocks. She's just a baby.

[ Arthur's caught between amusement and embarrassment, but striving valiantly for the former. ]

video;

[stolemyfries]

Is that all that's stopping you from putting her in the stocks? [Careful how you answere here Arthur, he could be in for some mock outrage.]

video;

[loveofcamelot]

That and the fact that there are no stocks here. [ Dryly. ]

Uh- you're a wuss. Uh, huh huh huh.

[ What the f-

What?

Check Arthur's indignant face in three, two.... ]

Excuse me?

[youfartknocker]

Uh- you heard me. Uh, huh huh huh.

[loveofcamelot]

I heard you, but I'm afraid I don't speak that dialect of idiot.

[England does recognise Arthur from last time he was here. A friend of Merlin's wasn't he? And that was enough to make him curious when he sees him out and about and apparently grovelling in a snowdrift?

He only has Lambton the dratini with him today, acting as a scarf since the others all found it too cold and refused to be roused from bed.]

Have you lost something?

[Action]

[loveofcamelot]

[ Arthur glances up and assesses England briefly, then gestures vaguely to... all the snow around them. ]

There's a Smoochum in here somewhere.

[Action]

[somanytosofew]

Ah... I see. [He isn't entirely sure what a Smoochum is but he can guess.]

Does it do this often?

[Lambton peeks out from beneath his collar.]

[Action]

[loveofcamelot]

Too often for my liking. Hide and Seek is her favourite game, especially in the snow.

[ A blonde mop of Smoochum hair pops out of a snowdrift, just out of the line of vision of both men, to look at Lambton, wide-eyed. ]
