33rd Transformation [video/action for Olivine]

[It's early morning when the feed opens on a Gym battle already in progress; and it's being filmed by something standing next to Envy's legs. He doesn't actually know this is being filmed. In the arena, there's a Skarmory engulfed in fire from a Flamethrower attack coming from Envy's Houndoom. It goes down in one hit, unsurprisingly. Looks like someone's finally taking on Jasmine.]



Lucky, get back over here!

[Have you ever seen a smugger Houndoom than the one that comes trotting back towards the camera-holder? The sunglasses Lucky wears just make it worse. But Envy…doesn't really sound too into the battle. It's odd, he usually sounds smugger when he's winning. But he just sounds bored, with almost an edge of frustration as he sends his Lucario out to face Jasmine's Magneton. The Magneton goes down easily enough after just a couple of attacks, but these attacks left Samus open to take no small amount of damage from Thunderbolt. There's not any attempt to toy with it or do anything interesting, just to hit it with super effective attacks until it went down. He's been battling like this for the past few weeks.]

[And then out comes the huge form of Jasmine's Steelix, leaving Samus looking very small and easily-crushed in comparison.]
Aura Sphere.

[The attack does look impressive, with Samus' entire body glowing with blue energy before she fires a beam directly at the Steelix's face. The Steelix roars, shaking its head, and then charges, knocking Samus into the air and across the room with a Headbutt. …Not the OHKO Envy had been half-expecting. In fact, it doesn't seem to have done a whole lot at all. Samus pushes herself back up to her feet, and just barely manages to dodge another strike.] Come on, hit it again! Force palm!

[Yeah, that works even less well than the first attack. Except for how, in some stroke of luck, the Steelix winds up paralyzed. There's a pause before Envy gives his next command, as though he's realized something.]

Start screeching and don't get hit!

[If there's one thing Samus is good at, it's being fast enough to outmaneuver her opponents. The Steelix isn't able to keep up and actually hit her with anything, especially not while it's paralyzed and growing more and more disoriented from the Screech attacks Samus aims at it whenever she has an opening. By the time Envy calls out a command for her to use Close Combat, he's sounding much more invested and like his normal self. Which is to say, he sounds like he's wearing a smirk bigger than his face. This kind of strategy is much more his style.]

[Samus actually runs up the Steelix's back to deliver the powerful attack to its head, and this time it actually works. Down it goes, and the battle is over. Whatever camera-Pokemon was filming doesn't seem to be interested in continuing now that the battle is over, and clicks the feed off.]



[A short while later, Envy turns the video on himself, as he's standing outside the gym holding up his prize. He's actually looking fairly pleased now, in contrast to how he sounded before.]



And that's five of these things.

[He'll be hanging around outside the gym for a little while longer before heading back to the inn. He didn't actually tell anyone in his group that he was going, aside from a scrawled note saying he was at the gym and would be back. Even he recognizes that vanishing when nobody's awake right now would be bad. But early morning restlessness equals 'time to fight the gym right this second' apparently.]

I'll be expecting you. The next time you leave, would it do any harm to send a brief text message? [ the answer to this obviously no. |:

She isn't sure how the other Lust could get much done, but then she remembered she was a softie and sort of mentally moved on with a weird mental kanyeshrug. She notices the contriteness and forgives him, as expected, anyways. ]


And just who was this special someone? [ She'll address the badge later in the conversation. ]

Thank you.

[ Oh! Hey! Heather! The one girl she vaguely likes. ]

Oh? You were visiting Heather? All is forgiven. [ This isn't because she likes Heather, this is just because, compared to everyone else, she likes Heather. ] She is quite an interesting young girl.

Yes. We've met during August. She replied to that post I made. [ You know... her only post.

Lust will grow even fonder knowing she bothered to rescue such a comrade! That she views as sort of inept at causing organized destruction without her assistance. Oh well, he's good at causing regular destruction! Not the "by the rules" destruction Lust buys into. ]
We still talk from time to time.
