[to those that are listening in on Pokéconnect, this feed starts with a flash of video--just the ground, nothing more--before it turns to the slightly static silence of audio. another flash to video. and then back to audio. whoever is broadcasting this is very obviously fiddling with it, in some way. a voice cuts in mid-sentence, and the fiddling

-Snake?

[ Well, first things first: ] Uh....Clover's not here.

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[oh. well first it was santa, and now this one.]

A gold star for you, Junpei. [he pauses.] . . . I see. [lil sis. :c]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

...Thanks. [ does that sound just a tiny bit sarcastic, or is it just me? ]

But it's probably for the best, right? I mean, can you imagine her with a Pokémon?

[ lmfao junpei that is not the way to try and reassure someone. ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[that's your imagination, Junpei.]

Well, she'd have the energy required for a Trainer. [thoughtful pause.] ... Several trainers.

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

[ oh okay. my imagination likes to run wild sometimes.... ]

Energetic is, uh, one way to put it. I know I wouldn't want to battle her.

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

Who knows what she'd do if you were to win.

[she might punch you or something, junpei.]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

Yeah....I don't think I'd ever want to find out. Better to lose to a girl than make Clover angry.

[ please tell me axes aren't lying around anywhere..... ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

I'm sure she'd pose a challenge either way. Best of luck if that happens, Junpei.

[she'll carve one... out of bark...]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

Thanks, I guess.....ahaha. [ awkward laughter! especially since you know his starter....

This next bit is mumbled more to himself: ] I wonder how weird that would be, Clover fighting Clover...

[ dammit snake why did you let her take woodshop ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[sorry, junpei, you know snake's ears.

they're good.]

As strange as this place is, I doubt that's possible, Junpei. [an awkward pause.] Unless you mean something else...

[the same reason why he let her get her driver's license.]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

[ dammit magic blind people powers. ]

Uh. [ Well, how does he explain this one? ] My, uh, starter is.....also Clover.

...They act alike.

[ ....you are a horrible, horrible human being, snake, unleashing that on the world. ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

. . . . . . .

[what does he even say to that. he named his pokémon after clover.]

. . . I don't approve. [half-joking, half-serious.]

[well sorry, man. someone needed to drive in the family, and it wasn't going to be snake.]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

Well, it's not like she's the only one I, uh, named a Pokémon after...

[ I DON'T THINK THAT MAKES IT BETTER askgghfg

....are you sure snake wouldn't be a better driver? clover makes me worry... ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

. . . I hope you haven't named anything after me, Junpei. [time to continue this teasing.] People might come to the wrong conclusion.

[dude. snake is blind.]

[ voice ]

[hewhosurvives]

Gah-! W-wha-no! [ trolling = successful. ] It's all Clover's fault....

[ i'm perfectly aware of that! but snake is also snake, and junpei's pretty sure he lost half of his brain cells being driven by clover. ]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

Now, now. No need to blame the Pokémon.

[... true. snake probably has some awesome driving-fu in him, or something.]
