[Post 039] Video/Action for Saffron City and Route 7 [Backdated to 30th of May]

[francia]

[The feed opens up to the outskirts of Saffron City just before Route 7 sometime in the mid-afternoon. It's a picturesque scene: green, summer-lush trees, well-combed grass, and a herd of multi-seasonal Deerling dotting the scope of the camera. The focus of the shot shifts after a couple of seconds to show one autumn-form Deerling in particular that is eating out of the palm of France's hand.]

[In the background, however, unnoticed for the moment by France, there is dust rising, and those watching the 'Gear might pick up the beginnings of static noise as a number of stampeding Blitzles careen towards France's back.]

[France grins at the 'Gear, voice cheerful and boastful although increasingly distorted by the static noise.]

This is Bénézet, the newest addition to my team! Isn't he a lovely and unique specimen among these cre...

[At this point, the feed's audio is far too distorted to be understandable. A moment passes where France continues speaking inaudibly before France finally notices something's up. He looks away from the 'Gear, which subsequently shifts the focus off-center to give a view of France's shoulder, the sky, and a rising cloud of dust before there's a blare of static and the feed abruptly cuts out.]

Of course not. That would be the logical solution.

[That's a really good question. Despite being a breeder, France really has no idea how pokemon come to be. And he's France.]

I was paying attention! Just not in the direction of the city. The Deerling were much cuter.

So don't get your hopes up unless they stop being Poképhiles.

Speaking of Deerling, how come he didn't notice?

[France shrugs.]

I suspect Bénézet was rather hungry. Grass isn't nearly as delicious as my food.

[Wow that took him, like five minutes to regain that ego. France you are a wonder.]

Lovely your cooking seems to have decreased one's natural sense.

[The smirk he had slowly becomes tiny grin. While he's still amused, it isn't doing much to keep his mind of certain things.]

[France starts to look indignantly offended, but then he notices the change in the smirk. He huffs again instead.]

Now you're making a jest of me. I am not just for your entertainment.

The world is my entertainment, you just happen to be what's up for today.

[He loves you, France he just has a funny way of showing it.]

[There's a beat of silence, consisting of France both pouting and looking at Killua suspiciously. It's not one of his best looks.]

You're an imp.

[He says it like it's a revelation.]

Thanks, that's one of the nicer things I've been called.

[He's messed up kid, he's fully aware of it.]
