[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.]

[He might have gotten a little bit lost in a forest.]

Lightning, huh. [For some reason, Snotlout grimaces a little at that. But this guy did say that they were friendly invisible lizards. Plus invisible lizards' eggs had been a profitable item for him in the past...

Alright, he's back in.] I probably still have the money for that. Haven't needed to buy anything in a while.

[...Never mind that he will need to buy things after this, uh.]

Alright, deal. But I want the best one of 'em you got.

[Oh damn did he say the wrong thing--oh, well it's okay after all then. Good.]

[...filthy urchin child you'd better be able to pay him.]

The best one, huh? I'll be sure to pick out the best one, yeah. [Lies. You get whichever one the first two people didn't get...although Parker did ask for the one that nobody else wanted, so Snotlout is probably still in luck.] But you have to pay me for it before you get it.

So, where are you right now? And what's your name?

[Fun fact: Snotlout has yet to go broke. We are all surprised.]

Yeah, yeah. I know how businesses work. [Duh, he's not stupid.] I'm Snotlout. And I'm in...

[...Where was he, now. Uh. Hang on, the 'gear is being unceremoniously shoved back into his backpack despite the fact that it's still recording. After about three minutes, it's dug back out. Such confidence this is instilling, I'm sure.]

Pewter City, I guess. "Between rugged mountains", what a stupid thing to be known for...

[Gold star for you, Snotlout.]

[And oh, such confidence. Kid, Envy's going to be checking up on this lizard he's giving you in the future. If he wasn't in such a hurry to get rid of them he'd be more reluctant, but these babies have got to go.]

Alright then, Snotlout. [That name] You're far away, so I guess we'll have to do this over the computer.

[...which he doesn't really trust but Pewter is too far away for sending a bird.]

[Good luck with that, this lizard's going to spend most of her time invisible on the ceiling or in vents. Snotlout isn't going to know where the heck she is long enough for Envy to determine her status.

HE'S A GOOD LIZARD OWNER.]

Right, the computer. [The confident tone doesn't really match up with the what are you even saying right now expression.] Yeah, that's how we'll do this. I knew that.

[Dammit, urchin child...at least Envy's going to be too far away to, y'know. Do anything about it.]

...Do you know how to use them at all?

[Yeah he saw that expression. IS THIS GOING TO TURN INTO A COMPUTER LESSON? Because Envy's from 1914 he's not great at the computers himself.]

Of course I do! I just...

[Allow a pause for Snotlout to think up an excuse.]

I just don't know where they are, in this place! I just got here, you can't expect me to know everything.

[...yeah Envy's pretty sure Snotlout doesn't know what he's talking about.]

They're in the Pokemon Center, usually. You know, the thing where your Pokemon go when you've got more than six?

[And then it's like the light was suddenly shining on the situation.]

Ohhh, you mean the peace-y! Why didn't you just say so?

[HE'S GOT THIS, NOW. The jostle of the background is more of a confident stride as he makes his way to the center.]

I...nevermind. Yeah, the peace-y. Some people call it a computer.

Anyway, if you know how to use that, there's an option in there for money transfers. And I can go transfer your lizard.

As soon as I pick out the best one.

[Or pick one at all, it's hard to tell the difference when they're all invisible.]
