Seventeenth Transformation [video/action for Ecruteak Pokemon Center]

[exeggutorhead]

[Today on Envy's 'Gear, there is a sad, worried Riolu face looking at everyone. Once it's on, Samus shifts the camera over to show Envy lying still on the bed, eyes half open and staring at nothing. Her trainer hasn't woken up yet, you guys, what if he just vanishes like her last two? So much distress here. Also in view are an extremely forlorn Tyranitar laying by the bed and taking up the entire space next to it, with his head resting next to Envy's shoulder. A Vaporeon is curled on Envy's chest, and a Luxray, Houndoom, and Arbok are all trying their very best to also fit on the bed despite collectively being about 300 pounds of giant cobra and dog and lion. It's kind of a wonder they all haven't managed to smother him yet.]

[But then, wait! Envy's head twitches to the side, and a small frown appears on his face. Seconds later, his eyes fly open and he jerks upright a few inches with a sharp intake of breath. Then he falls right back against the pillow, breathing heavily and his eyes still wide.]

..this is real?

[Chimera moves first. And for the next minute or so, all anyone would be able to see is a lot of fur and scales while Envy's pokemon loudly mob him with affection.]

HEY! Calm down all of you--Xerxes, no grooming, I've told youTAAAR [THONK] Ow, damn it Chimera be careful--

[And so on, until finally Envy manages to get them at least calm enough that he can grab the forgotten 'Gear himself. Despite his protests, though, he doesn't seem to have minded too much. He looks wary and completely worn out despite having just slept for a full week, hair going every which way even more than usual (especially the patch in front that fell victim to concerned lion grooming), and decidedly relieved to be out of those nightmares. In a moment, though, he's hidden most of that under a grin.]

Well, I'm back.

[He hesitates, very briefly.] Who else has woken back up?

<sub>[So Tulio's just been sort of hovering between both Envy's and Miguel's rooms these past few days, with very little other activity. He needs to have full check on both of them. Knowing that all the people he has some sort of relation to in Johto have fallen victim to these ghost-bug-things only made him more of a control freak, especially when it comes to dealing with his closest ones.]

[And while Miguel is the Most Important Person Forever, he's doing a damn good job of keeping both his eyes on Envy as well. He's the only other person in Johto that he truts, at least to an extent that might count for something.]

[So the fact that he's been pretty down and looks a little like a walking dead is probably not surprising, given that it's easy to figure out that he's been losing sleep over the whole situation.]</sub>

_{[Buuut on hearing all kinds of pokémon noises - and a voice - from one of the rooms he's patrolling? YEAH, that lifts his spirits instantly, and he pretty much races into it, and then just sort of stops in the middle of it and stares at Envy, double-take and all, relieved and tired but that's forgotten in favour ohmygod you didn't die excitement.]}

Envy! You're awake!

[action]

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy definitely startles when Tulio runs through the door. Chalk that up to him spending most of the time he was dreaming fighting terrible things. But still! Tulio! He is decidedly a sight for sore eyes right now, since most of the rest of Envy's dreaming was spent being terribly, terribly alone.]

[Here, Tulio, you actually get one of those very rare genuine grins, even if it's a weary one.] The zoo gave me away, huh?

[action]

[greatbigrock]

_{[Genuine grin fully returned, albeit more relieved on Tulio's end. He's been worried.]}

Haha, yeah. First time those good-for-nothing animal-things were good for something.

_{[He gestures at them, other hand on his hip, standing in the middle of the room.]}

So, uh -- you feeling okay? Any creepy mumbo-jumbo going on on the other side?

[It's been an exhaisting few days, but it seems to be paying off at least. People are waking up and hell if he knows who's done it all, but hopefully it's enough and they'll find everyone.

He hears the happy shrieking of Pokemon before he reaches the room and heads over to check it out.]

Welcome back.

[His voice is gruff and perhaps a little awkward since he didn't think dragging France back to the Pokemon centre really counted as getting to know each other.

...or maybe it did. He wasn't sure.]

[Action]

[exeggutorhead]

[Envy is wary at first when England comes in, if only because he's so weakened right now, but relaxes more when he recognizes him. Dragging France back to the Pokemon center was at least getting to know each other enough that he doesn't see England as an immediate threat.]

Thanks. [Envy's a little awkward himself. He hasn't quite worked out how to act towards England yet. At least he's been trained over the months to say thank you.] Guessing you did better at avoiding losing your soul than I did.

[Action]

[somanytosofew]

[England gives a small smile and nods, moving into the room proper instead of lingering just outside the door.]

I guess so. Can't help that they find my soul unpalatable.

_{[THE BANANA LORD IS OKAY! This pleases Henry.]}

Welcome back.

[video]

[exeggutorhead]

[Someday Envy will actually tell Henry his name. But sorry Henry, bananasauruscopter was too rowdy to be running loose in the Center and is currently in the box. :( ]

Thanks. You manage to keep your soul?

[People keep being happy to see him awake. Envy is not sure how he feels about this.]

_{[Envy is given a tiny nod.]}

All the ghosts gave me a headache though.

Welcome back, welcome back. [ cacklecackle ]

[exeggutorhead]

Why thank you. It's good to be back, and have my soul in its proper place.

Yours wasn't taken, was it?

video;

[endlessmagic.livejournal.com]

Of course not, of course not! ... How foolish would a witch that has taken souls herself to allow her soul to be snatched.

[Video]

[fullmetalbro.livejournal.com]

Go back to sleep. I doubt anyone missed you.

[Video]

[exeggutorhead]

[He'll just glare daggers at Ed for that comment, looking rather bristly. Direct hit for Ed!]

Actually, you're the first person not to be glad to see me. Too bad you're not still stuck in those dreams.

[If he could find any remaining Shedinjas to throw in Ed's face, he totally would.]

[Video]

[fullmetalbro.livejournal.com]

That's only because the people who are happy to see you don't know what you really are. Besides, if I was still stuck in those nightmares, I'm sure you'd want to be there to watch me suffer.

[What a coincidence! Ed would do the same!]

[Trainer, trainer! Let me see this other Tyranit-- oof!

Riku has to practically shove his own Tyranitar out of the way when he looks at this feed. She'll respond with a sad little and then peer over his shoulder.]

Think just about everyone's waking up now.

video

[exeggutorhead]

[Chimera is interested to see another Tyranitar! He doesn't see many others around ever. So he'll rumble a friendly greeting at her over Envy's shoulder.]

Huh, guess we're lucky that this world usually has a way to fix what it throws at us.

How are the souls getting returned? [Just in case there's anyone he cares about still missing theirs.]

video

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

Has to do with beating and catching the Shedinja. I only woke up yesterday, so I've got a lot of catching up to do, but that's what I've seen people mention over the network.

[Gaia grunts, as if confirming Riku's theory. They did a lot of fighting for him, the whole team!]

[themechotaku.livejournal.com]

Welcome back! [She's still giggling at your reunion with your pokemon~.]

video

[exeggutorhead]

[He's about to be be indignant at the giggling, but then he remembers that no wait, he's supposed to be nice. So instead he makes a more sheepish face.]

Thanks, it's good to be back.

...it wasn't that funny, was it?

video

[themechotaku.livejournal.com]

[Sorry, Envy~, maybe cute would be a better word for it?]

I could call it with a few words and funny isn't the first word on the list.

So anyway! It's good to see you again. Are you okay?

[video]

[king-of-flames.livejournal.com]

Tch. If I had known you had lost your soul, I might not have tried so hard.

[video]

[exeggutorhead]

Really, you'd rather all those other innocent people stay lost just to spite me?

[video]

[king-of-flames.livejournal.com]

If you think I was the only one out there, think again.

[Of course, he doesn't really regret his actions. Most of this is just a front.]
