Twelfth Transformation [video, backdated to Friday the 24th]
[It's nighttime in Goldenrod when the camera turns on, and the person holding the camera seems to be…on top of a roof? That's weird, what would someone be doing up there in the middle of the night? Only some kind of crazy--]
[Oh look, it's Envy.]
[He doesn't seem to be particularly interested in talking to the camera right now, although he is grinning widely and may or may not have had at least a couple drinks that night. Spoiler: he has.]
Ready whenever you are!
[At the voice, the camera swings to show that, on the roof of the next building over, there is someone else standing there waving. France, to be exact.]
Yeah, I'm coming! [Envy calls back, then turns the camera again to show Chimera the Pupitar beside him. With what appear to be some sort of hastily tied rope grips around several of his horns.] Look, I finally figured out what this evolution is good for! [He sounds so proud of himself.]
[See, this is the sort of thing that happens when you take a homunculus that misses his powers and give him the equivalent of a four foot tall bottle rocket, and enough to drink that he loses all worry for safety. Of course he can still regenerate, what are you talking about! Envy clips the gear to his coat with only a little fumbling before winding his hands into the makeshift grips.]
Okay, Chimera. Go!
[There's not much of a noise when they take off, but from the speed at which the camera is approaching the roof, it's clear that Envy's weight has barely slowed the Pupitar down. All anyone would really be able to hear is rushing wind, and maybe at the beginning a snatch of a madly triumphant shout.]
[The two successfully land on the next rooftop with a loud THUNK, so everything's great, right? Maybe not, since Chimera overcompensated how much force he put into the launch and is now continuing to skid across the roof. Right through several makeshift clotheslines and a flock of roosting wild Pidgey. Through all this cacophany of noise and feathers and a shirt or several, you might be able to make out Envy cursing and shouting for Chimera to slow down. Too bad for him there is no way for Chimera to do so because he doesn't have limbs. When the two of them finally slow to a halt, they are only a few feet from the edge of the roof. Way to avoid an impromptu trip to the Pokemon Center, Envy.]
[Envy falls back from the Pupitar and just…lays there, the Gear pointing up at the sky. After a moment, laughter starts to bubble up, and he punches his fist in the air for a moment before letting it fall back.]
Ha, I told you it would work!
Envy, that was awesome, are you alright? [France comes into view, laughing almost too hard to speak and holding a hand out for Envy to pull himself up with.]
Of course I'm alright! Hey, hey, you should try next.
…I was a flying ace. How could an ace of the Great War turn down an offer like that?
[If anybody cares to stop France, encourage them, or ask what in the hell they are doing, now might be the time.]
((ooc: Lines in orange are spoken by France, with permission. France will also be responding to comments in addition to Envy. Also, warning, both of them are kind of drunk.))

[This is what happens when he leaves? Seriously you two? He's riding on his Onix right now and doesn't plan on stopping to rest until dawn literally. Because of his speedy travel he is now in National Park and heading for the Sudowoodo Crossing, which he will use to get to Violet.]
...I just can't leave you two alone, huh?
[video]
Well if you hadn't left already, you could've tried too. [Griiiin.]
[video]
[China just sighs.]
I certainly would not, aru. That's dangerous, especially with these frail human bodies. If I break my neck here, it won't be able to fix itself like it does back home, aru. [Not that he broke his neck often back home, it's just a fiasco he's experienced in times of war.]
[video]
[He looks confused at what China is saying for a moment before he remembers that oh right. Johto. No regeneration here.] I guess I could have broken my neck...
[Does this dampen his enthusiasm? Not really.] It was worth it though! I'll just make sure not to fall.
[video]
[Despite the fact that the other is drunk, China can't help but chuckle.]
Don't get too full of yourself now, aru. Although, I have to say, you're pretty good at holding your liquor.
[video]
Before I showed up here, this much wouldn't have even done anything to me.
[video]
[He stretches himself on his back as Zhuang continues to plow over the ground.]
I miss Goldenrod already, aru. My brothers, you and France, and pretty much everyone else I know is there right now. [His eyes glance up at the evening sky before returning to the screen.]
[video]
[He laughs a little and smirks.] Or you should, who knows how much more trouble we'll get into?
[video] Sorry, I'm late. I had 5 essays due this week @.@
Just don't hurt yourselves too badly, aru. I do worry about you two, you know. ['Cause really, you guys...]
Still, I'm kind of excited to be heading for Mahogany. I needed a change of scenery, aru.
[He's all smiles. Not to mention there was someone waiting for him in Mahogany...]
[video] Don't worry!
Is it any different from all the forest it's been this whole time?
[video] <3
Well, I guess so, aru. 'Cause all I see is trees as far as the eye can see.
[He moves the gear so the camera catches the passing scenery.]
It's actually... really nice, aru.
[Video]
You should join us! China, where are you? Three is company, especially in bed!
[Video]
Aiyaa! I'm not deaf you know!
Anyways, I'm no longer in Goldenrod, aru. I'm heading for Mahogany to meet someone.
[And that someone happens to be a Russian man...]
[Video]
I never called you deaf! You're just old!
You left me again!
[Video]
I'll be back, aru! I don't know when, but I'll return someday! Besides, you still have Envy and my brothers to keep you company while I'm away.
Plus I really need to meet this person and we already agreed that we'd meet in Mahogany, aru.
[He leans his back against his Onix as it continues to move on, causing the wind to tug at China's hair.]
[Video]
Oh, I do definitely have Envy...
And who is this person, China? No secrets!
[Video]
Then there you go, aru. Congratulations. [He smiles a little.]
Nosy as always. But if you must know, he goes by the name Ivan. Ivan Raikov, aru.
[Video]
Ivan.
Am I looking at a theme?
[Video]
It's not Russia, if that's what you think, aru.
[Video]
Whatever you say!
[Video]
He wishes to take in Lien-Hua's son as his own pokemon, so that's why I'm heading for Mahogany.
[Video]
So who is the father in this relationship?
[Video]
[He shrugs.]
Probably a male Gyarados, aru. I figured I'd let Lien-Hua go out on her own a bit, so I just sat by the lake and waited for her to come back. She only had a single egg, but the little one is growing up so fast, aru. [He smiles a little.]
[Video]
Sometimes you really do act like the old man you are. Your pokemon are getting more action than you!
[Video]
I-I am not old, aru! And how dare you talk about Lien-Hua like that!
And I prefer not to have so many.. er.. people out there for me, aru. One is enough for me. [Says the one who is blushing over another Russian male.]
