29th Transformation [video/action for Goldenrod]
[The 'Gear feed flickers on to show the bored-looking face of Envy's Lucario; behind her are shelves stocked with a variety of instruments and music books. Yep, looks like Envy is out and about despite the cold weather, and has wandered back to one of his preferred haunts in Goldenrod: an quiet little music shop. Samus turns the camera this way and that absently, so viewers will catch a few glimpses of Envy sitting at a table nearby, hunched over something. It's too quick and shakycam to really get a good look at what he's doing, though.]
[Samus is so bored, she wants to get out and run around in the snow, not sit here in a store for ages. It's not long before she gets tired of playing with the camera and sets it down on the table. Her trainer probably won't notice if she just gets up and goes out for a little while, she'll come right back…and there she goes, the camera just catching her heading towards the door. But hey, there's a good view of Envy now, if not of the papers he's working on. He's definitely bundled up for the cold weather; the only thing he's not wearing are gloves, and those are visible off to the side. He scribbles something on the paper in front of him with a short, worn down pencil before scowling and erasing it, because erasers will just have to do when you can't actually burn holes in the paper with your glare. Following that, a whole series of more enthusiastic scribbling earns a long, considering look and then a satisfied smirk before he moves on. It looks like he's been at this a while, judging by how the sides of his hands are smeared with pencil lead.]
[He completely didn't notice that his Pokemon just ran off without him or that he's being recorded. Whatever he's working on, he's focused for once. Even if 'focused' looks mostly like 'mildly angry'. He's also muttering to himself.]
Almost finished...
[ooc: For action, feel free to run into Envy inside the music shop and watch him jump a foot in the air, or encounter Samus the Lucario outside! Envy will notice her missing soon and be out looking for her.]

[ Oh hey, Victor, he's never seen you so hard at work before... Maes can't help but ask: ]
Finished what?
no subject
[He's quick to reach for the 'Gear and pick it up, although in the process Hughes will probably get a good view of the papers. Turns out Envy was composing some music.]
It's nothing. Just a gift for someone.
no subject
[ Yup, he's seen the music... ]
Is it for a girlfriend? That's so sweet!
no subject
...something like that.
[Suppressing a kneejerk 'no it is not I am not sweet' reaction (because he's got a persona to maintain here) coupled with just plain being caught off guard winds up with Envy having an almost silly-looking expression of discomfiture.]
no subject
no subject
[You were close, Hughes! Although Envy thinks he's spotted an opportunity to move the subject in a different direction. One with lying, he's much more comfortable with lying and he wants to get his metaphorical feet back under him.]
I never really had time for anything like a sweetheart back in Amestris.
no subject
Ah, really? No time like the present to start meeting people, hmm~?
no subject
[He laughs. It's not a genuine one in the least, but it sounds sincere enough, if a little awkward.]
It's certainly easier to manage when one of the only obligations is to train Pokemon. By the way...did you manage to make it wherever you were heading?
no subject
[ How nice of you to ask! You're so sweet, Victor. ]
action;
How long have you've been working on this? And just what is it anyways?
action;
It's just a present.
[Don't judge him! Dodging the question of how long because it's been pretty much since he arrived in Goldenrod.]
no subject
I understand it's a gift Envy, but won't you indulge me with my other queries?
[ SHE WILL PURSUE THIS ENDEAVOR. ]
no subject
[When caught out at something embarrassing like trying to be romantic, the clear solution is to be defensive!]
[Indignant huff. Envy don't try to pretend you aren't oversensitive you are fooling no one.] Fine, I've been coming out here to work on it for about a week.
[Which would explain where he kept vanishing to at least.]

It's music, for the piano. Can the Envy you know play?
[It's one of the only non-destructive thing this one's good at!]
no subject
I didn't know you had an interest in music.
no subject
[The music is actually pretty nice; Envy's much better at playing than he is at composing, and several parts are borrowed or modified from other pieces, but it's not bad at all.]
I had to learn a few centuries back and I kept up with it.
no subject
LET HER RELIVE THE GLORY DAYS OTOUTO... ]
[Action]
As he walks in, he notices Envy, smiles and waves.]
He~y! Envy! [He doesn't know what deja-vu is, but he swears he said that before- perhaps on a few days he doesn't remember?]
[Action]
[He stands, turning his back to the music he was composing and leans back on the table, as though he's hiding it. He's still unsure of how he feels about Other Father, but he waves back and puts a half-grin on his face. He's got to get his metaphorical feet back under him somehow, and acting normal might work.]
Hey. Didn't expect to see you here.
[Action]
You're Envy's, aren't you?
[Action]
Cario.
[Action]
Would you be interested in helping me do something for Envy?
[Action]
Lu! [She nods eagerly. Just tell her what she needs to do, France.]
