[OOC: Because my permissions post isn't up yet, there will be no spoilers in this post except in threads with castmates.]

[The woman on the screen doesn't look happy, and there is high pitched wailing in the background. She has to raise her voice to talk over it.]

Okay! These animals that we get in the balls, what do they eat? It's been screaming

Berries mostly, but it's safe to feed them a bit of human food from time to time. At least it seems to be. [None of his have gotten sick yet, anyway.]

[usedgossip]

Huh. [She eyes her Togepi.] Do they... all eat berries? I mean, this thing is... An egg, and Vince's is a sheep...

[usedwindything]

Mmm...yeah, I think? I haven't encountered any that don't yet.

[usedgossip]

Alright, thanks! Are there any that will make them sick?

[What's up with all the helpful kids on this thing? She's not complaining but, man, they're all so friendly for teenagers.]

Welcome to Johto!

They eat like berries and stuff. Also more specialized food you can buy in shops, but there aren't any shops in New Bark if that's where you're at.

They're called Poekees by the way!

[Don't listen to her, she just wants more people to say it.]

[video]

[usedgossip]

[Okay, yeah, that's worrisome.]

There isn't one store in this whole place?

. . . Poekees?

New Bark's the lame newbie town. Basically there's an old lab, "mom's" house [Complete with air quotes], and yeah. Not much else. It's about three days to the next town.

But everyone gets a Poekee when they get here, and you can use that to catch more, and battle gyms and people and stuff. It's pretty fun, once you get over the part where you're stuck here and can't get home.

[Best welcome wagon.]

[usedgossip]

Then... [She raises a questioning eyebrow.] What do people here eat?

Is that some kind of new shortening of 'pokemon'? I am too old for this...

[nasa_dreams]

Agh! That wailing! Feed it some mashed up berries or Pokémon food all ready!

[usedgossip]

I sent Vincent to get berries but he's sure taking his sweet time with it! [Forgive her if she's a little bit irritable today. Headache.]

Re: Video

[nasa_dreams]

Well- Try rocking it or something!

[Stares for a moment.]

It's like a human child?

If you stopped yelling and gave me a chance to read this thing, maybe I'd be able to tell you!

[Facepalming all over as he tries to read through his breeder's guide. Not that it seems to be helping much at all.]

Geez, it's bad enough that thing won't shut the hell up...

action; I need to get some annoyed icons. /cries

[usedgossip]

[Erica is attempting to dangle the keys that had been in her pocket for the little pokemon, but the Togepi just keeps wailing.]

Well, it's not my fault that you somehow got the well behaved pokemon!

action; I'll get you those visual book icons soon! ♥

[cubalibres]

And it's completely your fault that you suck with kids. [Rubs eyes.]

Take this, see if it works. [Rummages through his backback and pulls out a small bag of trail mix.]

action; I love you foreverrrrr ;w;

[usedgossip]

Hey! I do not suck with kids! I don't see you doing any better!

[In spite of the yelling, she takes the trail mix and crouches in front of the Togepi.]

Come on, sweetie, try this? [And the trail mix... is a success! Hot damn, Vincent was helpful!]

[usedkunai]

[Well, who's this cute, older woman? Yosuke doesn't know, but he's glad to help.]

Hehe, well, it'll probably sound kind of weird... but if you treat them like little kids, sometimes that calms them down? Usually they eat like... berries and grass and stuff, but they'll eat human food sometimes too. [An awkward laugh. Does his tone sound kind of familiar?] But just holding them is enough to calm them down sometimes, even if they're hungry.

[usedgossip]

[There is... something about this boy that reminds her of Toby. Instantly taken with him, but no, Yosuke, not like that.]

You know what? [She laughs, and it only sounds a little strained.] That's really not that weird. At least, compared to the rest of what's going on here. Thanks.

[ALRIGHT LET'S GO CRADLE HER LITTLE SCREAMING EGG. Who... instantly starts to calm down, what is life.]

Hey! It works!

video;

[usedkunai]

Yeah, most stuff around here is pretty weird - so I totally get what you mean, hehe. [Winking into the camera.] It's probably because it's not used to you yet, you know? Some Pokémon can be pretty shy like that. Well, other people's, at least...

[usedgossip]

[Erica is now kinda... cooing over the Togepi. So cuuuuuute when it's not screaming!]

I'm still trying to figure out what it's supposed to be... Eggs aren't sentient here, are they? [TOO WEIRD, TOO WEIRD.] I guess it's just a baby, and it doesn't know me... [She laughs.] Kinda cute, when it isn't trying to deafen me...
