... [ what the-- okay, whatever he's doing, it's adorable, and he's got roses, and god Rise why are your experiences with love starting to consist of your two best friends and people's Pokémon? ]

... I don't... know exactly what that was about, but he's so cute!

[action]

[will_to_burn]

Isn't he? I think it's got something to do with Fay-san's Vulpix, Clover!

[ Do you hear that? That's a really long, really excited, and really hopeful quil coming from Youta at the mention of Clover's name. IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH CLOVER, YOU GUYS. ]

[action]

[restardom]

Love is in the air, huh?

[ crouching down to rub Youta's head. ] Good for you, making the first move!

[action]

[will_to_burn]

It seems like it!

Cynda quil! Cynda!

[ Yeeeeah, he's just going to stretch his head up so Rise can pet him more easily and beam at her proudly. Do you think she'll say yes? Do you? ]

Now that I think about it, he's been refusing to evolve, too. I wonder if this has anything to do with it?

["Flaaaaaff!" A pink blur is approaching, what do? It turns out to be a Flaaffy wearing an enormous pink ribbon, excitedly gushing to Youta about how that was just so sweet and romantic and Clover is sure to say yes... Meanwhile, a tall girl with long black hair is following at a more sedate pace, hiding a smile behind her hand.]

[ And Hikaru can't hep but smile at the sight of the Flaafy, who is way too cute for her own good. Her smile only grows as Youta begins to blush and thank the Flaafy, saying that he really, really hopes she does; he isn't sure what he'll do if she doesn't! Meanwhile, the black-haired girl catches Hikaru's notice, prompting her to approach with a smile. They're the only people around, so -- ]

Is that your Pokémon? She's really cute!

[It takes a bit, what with Fay doing his routine check of the PokéGear, but when he sees this transmission, he watches a bit intently. He can't quite understand what Youta is saying, but it's pretty obvious that he's trying to communicate with Clover -- he thinks so, at least. He shifts position, giving Clover - who'd been sleeping peacefully in his lap - a nudge.

It takes a few minutes, but the feed turns back on, with Clover in full view. She's pretty expressive, especially for a Pokémon -- she looks as if she's beaming straight into the camera before she begins to speak in words comprehensible only to the other Pokémon.

"Youta, you don't have to stay a Cyndaquil just for my sake! I like you... I like a lot, really! And even if you weren't a Cyndaquil anymore, I'd still like you! One day... I'd like to be a Ninetales, so it's only fair you evolve when you're ready, too. As long as that's okay with you... I'd love to be your Pokégirl, Youta! ♥"]

[ And that? That is the sound of Youta spontaneously combusting out of sheer joy. The flame emanating from his back is bright, but it's never been as bright or big as it is now. Suffice to say someone is extremely happy and it shows, it really shows. His cheeks are a healthy shade of red and he's practically gushing when he responds, his enthusiasm as endless as his joy.

"Of course I don't mind! It's like you said: I'd love you even if you weren't a Vulpix anymore and I'm just so glad you said yes! I'll do my very best to be the best Pokéguy ever and make you really, really happy, I promise! ♥♥♥" ]

[The excitement appears mutual, Clover only further lighting up at his reaction. Her nose nuzzles the screen briefly, and as she pulls back, her tails spread, bouncing slightly. It takes her a couple of minutes, but eventually, Clover responds, her enthusiasm just as high.

"It doesn't matter what you do. Just being you makes me happy, really! I know we're far away, but we'll get to see each other soon, okay? ♥♥"]

[After a moment, Fay chuckles. He hasn't the slightest idea what is happening between the two Pokémon, but he can plainly tell that Clover is extremely pleased with the situation.]

It sounds like Youta-chan is quite a charmer~

video; how did i miss this oh scream

[will_to_burn]

[ Leaning forward to give the 'gear a proper and very much affectionate nuzzle with his nose, Youta responds with an enthusiastic quil cynda quil that translates to, "Okay! I'm really looking forward to it! ♥"

Hikaru's a bit on the clueless side herself as to the exact dialogue, but... ]

You thought so, too, Fay-san?

[will_to_burn]

I was going to ask you the same thing. Are you okay?

[text]

[will_to_burn]

I'm okay, but I've been thinking. Do you think we could have that meeting with everybody over the gears about Team Rocket when you get back?
