[Post 040] Video/Action for Saffron City

[The 'Gear appears to be broadcasting a very summery flower arrangement atop a table situated carefully and pleasingly in front of a window. It appears to be early afternoon, so the daylight illuminates the set-up rather nicely, casting a small shadow. It looks, for all intents and purposes, like the front of a pretty boring greeting card.]

[From France's expression as he switches the focus of the 'Gear back to himself, he certainly doesn't look entirely thrilled himself.]


Back at Christmas, a friend of mine was so kind as to gift me with painting supplies. I am a highly accomplished painter, and this -

[He waves his hand at the still-life set up with a half-exasperated, half-pained expression.]

I could paint something like this in my sleep. I have, in fact, done so.

[He sighs dramatically before straightening up and making a flourishing motion to indicate Marianne, who is, for once, doing nothing more innocuous as lying contentedly in the path of the sunbeam.]

So, the question I want to pose to you is this: where could I find a more majestic setting to properly capture her and my other pokemon's beauty?

Go to the beach. You can't go wrong with a beach for painting! Or- or paint a Pokemon battle! In the midst of all the fighting and adrenaline - it would be so totally awesome and brilliant!

It has to be a strong opponent. You can't like, do some weak dweeb because that wouldn't give the best bamf to the painting!

You've painted in your sleep? Now that's impressive.

But waking or sleeping, your work is beautiful, maestro.

Gym leader battle could be good. They normally have cool designs in their gyms too, so.
kivaember: (Hmm...)

Can't you get someone to film it for you? Man if I was there I'd do it for you!

[You always were one of her favorite nations, France. Whether she realizes you're a nation at the moment or not.]

The Salon? You mean the annual art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts?

Yeah, I should get a move on, huh? I'm in Violet City right now. I'm training my Pokemon, and I got a Growlithe egg that I'm trying to hatch...oh! I'm also trying to catch a Mareep, so, ehe, I've been a bit busy...

[Just wait 'till she breaks the news that she once stole the Mona Lisa's smile.]

Consider me even more impressed. I'm no artist myself, but I have a profound admiration for the works of the masters. And I must admit I'm pleasantly surprised to discover one so skilled here in Johto.
kivaember: (Hmm...)

Oh! Someone was selling them, and they shipped it to the PokeMart. It only cost me five hundred, uh, PokeDollars? Whatever the currency is.

Hey~ my team's great! Besides, you had a head start from me...oh! Dandelion now knows an attack move, by the way! But Soren still fights with her in battle anyway. Those two are awfully close...

[Hey, man, she put it back. Eventually. After taking Van Gogh's eyes and a Picasso nose.]

I wouldn't mind being in France right now, myself. How long have you been here?

Soren's the pidgey. My entire team is so awesome right now, y'know, although I wonder if I should put some variation in it...I mean, aside from my future Growlithe and Gilbird, they're all flying-types.
