exeggutorhead | Twenty-first Transformation [video/action for Ecruteak]

[It's been a while since the network last got any broadcasts from Envy's 'Gear; just a day shy of a month since he woke back up in Johto kicking and screaming. He's spent that time getting re-used to the world, getting used to being human and to everything that comes with it all over again. It was easier to manage this time, even after being gone a year, and he's not sure if he likes thinking about that.]

[But when the 'Gear turns on, it's not pointed at Envy's face, but up at the sky and the treetops. From the lack of buildings and the forest, it looks like he's out walking just outside of Ecruteak. The camera's following the flying form of a smaller-than-average Tropius as she wheels and skims along the treetops as fast as her leafy wings can propel her and actually looking oddly graceful for such an un-aerodynamic creature. She backwings right in the sight of the camera, neck arched like a question mark, and peers down at her trainer before she's off in another direction again. But she did stop long enough for viewers to catch sight of the little blue Riolu perched on the top of her head, looking perfectly secure in her footing. Apparently this is far from the first time the two Pokemon have done this.]

I still don't know how something looking like that can even fly at all.

[And there's Envy. The camera lingers on the flying pair for a moment longer before he turns the camera to himself. He's sitting on the back of his Tyranitar while Chimera lays out and enjoys the sun, so he's looking a bit farther off the ground than usual. Envy looks a far cry from the raging, wild-eyed person who woke up a month ago; he's back to looking composed and neat and just a little smirkish. Adjusted back into Johto? Mostly. Forgotten the reason why he was so angry? Hell no.]

There's something I've been wondering about, and I figured I might as well try the network. Does anyone happen to come from a world with a place called…'London', I think it was? I don't know anything more than the name, but--

[He's interrupted by a pair of loud, startled cries from up in the air, and the video tilts and wobbles crazily as Envy jumps up and off Chimera's back and lets the arm holding it fall to his side.] Damn it, Izumi--!

Watchers might be able to catch the remnants of a bright glow coming from somewhere above the screen before they'll see that Tropius make an extremely ungraceful, skidding landing in the dirt, along with a newly evolved and newly very dusty Lucario. Turns out that suddenly carrying a much bigger passenger while in the middle of some fancy flying trick does terrible things for your balance. Envy's already walking over to the pair of them, but they're getting to their feet and look like their only injury was to their pride. The now-Lucario barely even looks like that's the case, more concerned with looking over her evolved form with a mix of wonder and smugness.]

Heh, I was wondering when you'd evolve, Samus. [Envy sounds almost proud of her, and gives the fur on her head a ruffle with his free hand. Izumi makes an indignant noise and butts her head against his side to demand attention too. Envy sighs and relents, ending the feed to free up his hand before he winds up getting knocked over by a flying bananasaur.]

[His expression goes from a smirk to a frown.] I wouldn't be so certain. I've heard from the Flame Alchemist that he defeated your Envy. And in my world, I'm the last standing, even though we had all seven for a little while. It's troublesome, what those damned humans have managed.

Your form is highly similar to what you look like back home, except I don't really recall the green hair do. [ in other words that green is nonexistent buddy. ] Ah, we have one that ages like a human too. His name is Wrath, but also known as King. [ just testing the waters if he can make that assumption. ]

Well, Envy, back home you're made of one, and I doubt Father will allow me to give one away without meeting this other master.

I don't have any recollection of you dying to the Flame Alchemist. You haven't even met him where I'm from. But, if you're the last one standing, what happened to the other Lust?

[ She'll just shrug at those damn humans. ] Hmph. The fact that you've fallen to the humans just states on which side appears stronger, Envy. The only meddling I've had to deal with is the fullmetal brat inside the laboratory.

King Bradley? Interesting, he's known as Pride to us. Our Wrath is a little brat that causes more trouble than he's worth. [And in the end, that had been why Dante had let the Gate have him. He didn't know what had happened to Wrath after he left, but missing limbs and useless like that, Dante probably had him killed. Envy doesn't particularly want to think about that.]

[He does frown, not liking her implication of being the weaker versions.] Hey, our side was all alive back at the Fifth Laboratory too, if that's the lab you're talking about. So if you remember this place when you go home, be careful.

...as for Lust, she defected. She figured out that our master wasn't going to give her what she wanted, so she went to the Elrics. Wrath killed her for her betrayal, right after they killed Sloth.

Pride? Hardly seems like one to be gifted with the name. [ A pause. ] He's able to hold back his temper, but that doesn't mean it's nonexistent. A little brat would sound more like Pride, except he's not as bratty. He takes the form of King Bradley's son, Selim. [ This was an interesting meeting, a very interesting one. ]

I don't need your concern but I appreciate the effort. [ yes yes more poking fun. ]

[ .... A pause. Dead? Her? Dead? Well, if she betrayed Father she definitely wouldn't be alive, and Envy can hear the slightest tone of fury in her voice towards both the Master and Wrath. ]

Well, she's a smart girl. So the master promised to make her human and, once I pieced together that wasn't plausible on her part, I defected only to be killed later? At least I took someone down with me. [ Her tone sounds particularly sadistic and vengeful. ]

Are you still aligned with your master?

I'd say the name suits him, he likes to pretend he's the favorite. But Selim? That gullible little human son of his is a homunculus in your world? [Envy really can't help but laugh at the idea.]

[At the topic of his Lust's death, though, he's frowning again. He's gone through hating and blaming just about everyone for her death since it happened, including her.]

Sounds about right.

...it wouldn't matter if I was or not, I'm not likely to see her again even if I do go back home. [He is dodging the hell out of that question.]

Hmph. I'm glad we agree. Selim, in our world, is Pride. He's a lot more intelligent than he lets on. But given that all Homunculus, sans Sloth, are accounted for between our worlds, myself, Envy and Gluttony are the same to some extent, Wrath has become Pride, A random child has become Wrath, and Selim loses his position. It seems are worlds are similar to some extent, or at least to the extent where one could pass as the other? [ She lets out the biggest grin ever. She's planning something huge. ]

Ah. Let me guess, your Master passed on? [ She's smart enough to piece that together, at least. ] I can't say I'm too surprise given her track record with decisions. [ You. Don't. Lie. To. Lust. ]

Sounds about right. Sloth in my world was born out of the Elric brothers' failed transmutation of their mother, and our Wrath from their teacher's dead son. I'll give you more details when we meet in person. [Oh, Envy recognizes that grin. And he wants to know what's up.] You look like you're planning something, Lust, I see that much hasn't changed. What is it?

[At Dante being dead or not, though, he has to shrug. It's really too bad he can't tell her about his master's incredibly fitting death, but he wasn't there for it. He doesn't want to mention his trip through the Gate right now though.] She could have, but I wouldn't know. She was still alive when I was brought here, but who knows how long that will last, with her plans becoming unraveled?

So the Homunculi are created by failed human transmutations? [ She at least can figure something similar to this. After all, she does know about the human transmutations. ] Anyways, I'm planning to borrow the identity of Lust from your world. If she knows about the Elric's enough to defect, then I guess I can take her place and just play nice with them. I need to keep my eyes on them after all, they are Father's prime candidates.

[ and the smile becomes outright twisted as Lust creates a huuuuuge grin. ] She should have known better than to mess with her helpers. [ Lust states this, ironically, not knowing she's the reason why Dante died if you look at it in the grand scheme of things with Gluttony. ] Let's just hope she's put in her place. [ Y e p. Dante not giving other Lust what she wants is enough for her to actually spitefully wish her plans come to a close. Damn humans, believing they have control over homunculi. ]
