44th Transformation [video/action for Seafoam Islands | VERY BACKDATED to sometime last week]

[exeggutorhead]

[When the feed turns on, the only real illumination is coming from the 'Gear itself and from the brightly flickering tail of a Charizard in the background. They're inside a cave, the walls glittering with ice. Envy is holding the 'Gear and has only a thin veneer of a polite act over his currently very displeased mood. France is standing just behind him, and not looking much better; his expression is a little more openly grudging and frustrated. Their breath is visible even in the low light, and Envy is wearing what appears to be two coats, a scarf, and earmuffs. France is meanwhile dressed in more water resistant clothing.]

Hey, network. We were just wondering if anyone's been through the Seafoam caves recently.

[Envy's grin is very strained, for all he's trying to seem totally calm and relaxed. He's very frustrated. France mutters an addition: ]

No one should come here. It's a God-forsaken place.

[Envy glances back to France, briefly, shifting the 'Gear to keep anyone from seeing the 'halp I don't want to explain to the network that we're lost in a cave' look. This gives anyone watching a clear view of the Charizard and Tyranitar trying to maneuver a huge boulder that's gotten caught in a corner. Then the camera is back on Envy and France.]

There are a lot of boulders blocking the way out. Does anyone know another way around?

[It's a pretty succinct explanation coming from France. They really want out of these caves.]

We'd appreciate any information at all.

[Envy grins again, still too wide to be genuine, and turns off the feed.]

[ooc: Very late post fourth wall joint post! France's dialogue used with permission, and Envy and France will both be replying to threads.]

Doesn't look all that scenic to me... _{[Just rocks and darkness]}

You can't backtrack to where you came in?

[France's expression is intensely bland.]

Scenery is relative.

[He huffs slightly before puffing himself up a bit.]

We aren't about to be defeated by a cave. I've explored thousands. This is something we must surmount!

<sub>[Miguel isn't one to turn down a good exploration or anything that could lead to adventure, but srsly you guise.]

[He just rolls his eyes and smiles.]</sub>

Alright, sure. Have fun. Just... do remember that you can just turn around and go back the way you came.

[France sighs dramatically.]

Oh, we do know. We are certain, however, that this cave was made for us to conquer!

I'm sure you can make it.

Just do get back in one piece, or you'll miss out on this great surprise Tulio and I have got for you.

[France's eyes open comically wide.]

Surprise? What surprise?

[He sounds intrigued and a little apprehensive. There's no lost love between Tulio and France.]

You'll see when you get back.
