exeggutorhead | 53rd Transformation [video/action for travelmates]

[Envy appears to be having some kind of trouble today. The camera is pointed at him, either propped up on a table or being held by something. He's in a hotel room, and he's standing..strangely. His back is bent, and his arms are bent out away from his sides…it looks like he's covered in something heavy, but there's nothing there. Nothing except for three bright red zigzags hovering in midair, and if you looked very closely an area where the air looks different. There's also a Ninetales circling closely around his legs and growling and yapping indignantly at whatever the invisible things draped all over Envy are. A Houndoom's excited barks can be heard somewhere off camera. Envy's teeth are gritted as he nearly glares at the camera, because really? Really?]

I have some Pokemon to sell. They just hatched. They're two thousand each, so send me that and you'll get your own very friendly invisible lizard.

[He shakes one of his arms lightly, and startles the Kecleon clinging to it into visibility. It lets out a whining "Keeeeeh", which Envy ignores.]

And here's what they actually look like. So--

[If he had more to say, he doesn't get to, because with a visible target the Ninetales swings around to yap at it, and the 'Gear is knocked over and off by her many tails.]

That's...incredibly weird. Could your pokemon tell you anything about what happened?

_{[Henry makes a note to keep an eye on his. They're more pets than battle partners.]}

I tried getting my Yamask to ask her and translate for me, but she didn't really have a clear answer. Something about a machine.

[He sighs, burying his fingers more tightly in the yellow fur. He wouldn't admit it, but he'd been worried about his angry, prissy fox when she was missing.]

Which I guess is still better than if I didn't have a translator, because then what the hell would she be able to tell me?

_{[Henry forms a small worried frown. They had a few translators between them but...he'd rather they not need them at all.]}

I just can't see the point of abducting somebody's pokemon just to give it back.

I don't either, it doesn't make any sense.

...but when I find whoever it was, I'll get them to explain their stupid plot.

[Because oh he's going to find them, mark his words. Eventually.]

_{[Envy's tone tells Henry that he's not playing around either.]}

I wish there was a way to track what gears your pokemon had been registered with. Mine tells me who Marlboro's original owner was, but nothing else.

[He's really not, he doesn't play around when it comes to revenge, even small-scale revenge.]

I guess nothing can ever be that easy around here.

[Sigh.]

Hey, you don't want one of these lizards, do you?

[He figures Henry would have already asked if he did, but NO HARM IN TRYING.]

_{[Henry considers it. Having a pokemon that could make itself invisible did seem pretty neat.]}

You know what? Sure!

[YES EXCELLENT let him go looking for his last baby Kecleon, he's sure there were four of the things.]

[One zigzag, two zigzags, three...]

[...and there's four, but that's the mother. Shit, did he lose one?]

Hang on, where's the last one?

[A mainly rhetorical question, as he's searching around.]

_{[Henry quietly watches his friend hunt for an invisible lizard.]}

You don't think it got stuck under anything, do you?
