exeggutorhead | 37th Transformation [video/action]

[The feed opens on a small rainstorm. But strangely, the 'Gear looks like it's actually a few feet outside where the rain is falling. Looks like somone is making use of Rain Dance, and viewers will soon be able to make out that said someone is Envy. And it's easy to see from here that he's got bright blue splotches down his arms, and a large, more diamond-shaped splotch on his forehead. He's just outside of Saffron on Route 7, and is clearly making use of his new powers.]

[Because hey, even if they aren't his own, why not use them? A few seconds after the feed comes on, he aims a Water Gun at an attacking Rattatta, knocking it out. At his feet are a few more KO'd Pokemon, as well as his own Vaporeon, who looks to be making sure none of the wild Pokemon's attacks actually hit Envy. Because for all he's having fun with his powers, he sure doesn't want to get a Bite to the face or something, and what is fighting fair? This fighting goes on for a few minutes more before the Rain Dance runs out, fortunately around the same time the wild Pokemon do. Envy turns to whichever of his Pokemon is holding the camera, and grins before walking over (he doesn't, however, take the 'Gear. He's learned the hard way already that getting it wet ends badly). Now that he's closer, you can see that his eyes have changed color to bright blue, and have slitted cat's pupils. He also looks very pleased with himself.]

As much of a pain as it was getting these powers, I can't say they don't come in handy. It's about time we got some kind of reward when something insane happens.

[[ooc: Action can happen either out on the route or in Saffron once he's decided to go back!]]

_{[There's audible grumbling on Heather's end.]}

... Wish I got water powers...

Why, what did you get?

_{[The screen had mostly been dark-- she's APPARENTLY sitting in a room with the lights out?]

[But at the question, she heaves a sigh and reaches out-- seemingly pulling a curtain aside.]

[She's lying in the bathtub. There's a towel and a pillow underneath her, so apparently it's where she's been sleeping. And...]

[Well, remember when she said she was glad she hadn't gotten sick. Apparently she'd spoken too soon.]

[Her skin has darkened-- almost black in some patches. Blotchy and scorched-looking. Her hair had suffered the same fate. And her eyes, normally a striking but relatively normal amber, are glowing orange like embers.]}

Take a guess.

[At first, he looks startled; after all, the only people he's seen with powers have been on the lower end of the scale. And even if Heather doesn't have spikes growing out of her face, that's still one hell of a mutation.]

Yeah, I think I can figure it out.

Does it hurt? [There is a small note of concern in his voice, on account of the scorched look.]

... No...

_{[Not physically, anyway... but it hits so close to home that she can feel phantom pains twanging every time a flame licks across her skin.]

[All those memories...]}

Not ... really...

But you're still not looking too great anyway.

[He says it in a tone that's almost teasing, but...not really. And it doesn't take long for him to guess why, because he feels very similarly about being sick and stuck in bed. He remembers what she told him about her original death. He's quieter when he continues.]

The fire, right?

_{[She pauses a little, then nods.]}

... Brings me right back.

[If they were in the same place he'd give her a hug. ...Although given their opposing elements that might not be the best idea anyway.]

I'd switch with you if I could.

[Which is true. He wouldn't mind having fire.] This can't last forever, though, right?

Believe me, I'd rather be putting OUT fires than starting them...

And I guess, but I mean... at least everything else more or less had an explanation, you know?
