exeggutorhead | 60th Transformation [video]

[Well, here's two faces that haven't been seen by anyone since Fourth Wall weekend ended. Envy and Scar are certainly looking the worse for wear between the scrapes, bruises, and what grime wouldn't come off in a Pokemon Center sink, because that's what happens when you're lost in a dark cave for almost two weeks.]

[Judging from the wind and the way their clothes and hair are whipping around them, they're in the air…and stuck on the back of a single Pokemon. Envy is sitting in front of Scar, and Scar is looming behind him and not looking like he quite fits on the back of a bananasaurus.]

[For a second after he opens the feed, Envy's just giving the camera a tired, thousand yard stare. His mouth isn't visible under the scarf he's wearing, so no hints there. But then he snaps out of it enough to say:]

So we didn't die. We're on our way back to Goldenrod now. I'm never going in another cave again as long as I live.

[And he doesn't have the energy for much more than that. THAT'S THE MESSAGE, THERE IT IS. He closes out the feed.]

[[ooc: This is a joint post between Envy and Scar! So Scar may also be replying to threads.]]

_{[ARRIVES LATE WITH COFFEE. How late is up to the mun's discretion-- it's entirely possible Wrath just didn't even see this video until Envy and Scar actually made it back to Goldenrod.]

[Either way, Wrath is beyond excited to see the other Homunculus. He'd already had a little... talk with Lust. That hadn't gone the way either of them wanted it to at all. But seeing another ~loyal~ team-mate sent the little monster into paroxysms of hopeful excitement. YES! ENVY WAS HERE! He'll know what to do!]}

ENVY!

ENVY CAN YOU HEAR ME?

I KNOW I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO USE THE PHONE BUT THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!

ALSO I CAN SEE YOU!

WOW!

_{[TECHNOLOGY IS AMAZING!]}

[And there's Tim. Apparently he did stick around after the weekend was out. It's good that he survived, at least.

Scar's eyes widen as he watches the screen, but he doesn't draw attention to himself. This kid knows Envy. Not shocking, but interesting. He'll have to watch and wait.]

[Oh. This is probably what Lust wanted to talk to him about.]

[And thinking about Lust and Wrath at the same time makes him narrow his eyes and scowl at the camera.]

Yeah, here I am. Did you just get here?

_{[Envy scowls plenty, so a sour expression alone isn't enough to make Wrath suspect something might be amiss.]

[Which is why he carries on, breathlessly.]}

Yeah!

Lust killed me but I woke up here!

She's a TRAITOR, Envy, a real traitor! I had to tell you QUICK!

Where are the others?

We can still stop her!!

[Instead of being shocked or telling Wrath what a good homunculus he is, Envy just glares more.]

[Wrath hadn't mentioned traitors when he showed up over the weekend...he must be from just before everything happened in that warehouse. Envy actually doesn't really know what happened before that.]

The others aren't here, and I'm not stopping anyone. There's no 'we'.

I'm a traitor now, too.

[HE'S VERY EMPHATIC ABOUT THAT.]

_{[8) ... 8) ... 8( why does he look so mad.]

[What Envy says next pretty much makes Wrath's entire brain freeze like a stuttering computer.]

[His eyes get big, and what little color there is in his face promptly drains from it.]}

.... What?

You heard me.

[Dante's not here, he doesn't have that as a pressing reason to act like he's still a loyal servant. And he doesn't have that as a reason to be nice about this, not to Wrath.]

[His weekend discovery that he's not as free of her influence as he'd thought might also have something to do with the vehemence. Just a bit.]

I'm not following her anymore. Not now, and not ever again.

... I... I don't understand...

_{[While he'd been more or less shouting straight into the mic for his first transmission, now he seems to have forgotten about his initial concerns over whether Envy would be able to hear him or not. His voice has now grown very small.]}

You... you said we had to do whatever she told us...

_{[YOU said that, Envy! 8(]}

[Envy tenses and clenches his hands into fists when Wrath says that.]

Not here we don't. She's not even here to take orders from if you wanted to.

[Thank Arceus for that.]

And you shouldn't, either. That's what I'm saying now.

_{[BUT BUT BUT... YOU SAID SOMETHING ELSE JUST A FEW HOURS AGO WRATH IS SO CONFUSED.]}

... But... you know what happens when we're bad.

And you said...

_{[HE'S REALLY HUNG UP ON THE 'YOU SAID' THING.]}

[He snaps, voice rising steadily.]

I know what I said! But it doesn't matter.

She can't hurt us here!

[Yeah he's kind of forgotten about Scar being behind him. He makes a 'tch' noise, and stops yelling.]

You're free, go do whatever you want. I don't care.

_{[Wrath looks a little taken aback. No, actually, a LOT taken aback.]}

... But... we're s'pposed to be a team...

_{[YOU CAN'T JUST GIVE HIS LIFE STRUCTURE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEN TELL HIM TO GO DO WHATEVER HE WANTS, BRO!]}

[It's probably not that visible on the video, but Envy tenses up completely at that. It's almost a flinch.]

[And then he just sounds angrier.]

Yeah, well, we're not. Go find a new team.

[He doesn't want to talk to Wrath anymore. So he punches the 'hang up' button with unnecessary force.]
