45th Transformation [text/action for Vermilion]

For anyone who knew him, Miguel went home a few days ago. I'm trying to find out who might have any of his Pokemon. So if something showed up in your PC that wasn't there before, let me know and I'll see if it's one of his.

[It's an unusually formal message, coming from Envy, but honestly? He doesn't feel usual right now. And he figures that hey, people are usually jumping to be helpful in this place, sending out a nice, polite request can't hurt his chances of finding out where Miguel's team went. It's something he wants to know, something he feels like he owes to Miguel, because Miguel loved his team. Owes it to Tulio too (though after Tulio disappeared he hadn't wanted to talk to the network period, much less ask about missing Pokemon), because he's got Bicho now but Dinero isn't anywhere to be found, stupid cat.]

[It still hasn't entirely sunk in. Hell, Tulio being gone barely had, and that happened over a month ago. They'd been there since the beginning, a constant in his life here even if not always a welcomed one. They weren't supposed to have vanished, not now, not after he'd even stopped hating Miguel. He still keeps expecting to get a message from Tulio about meeting up for a new con, or to hear Miguel playing that mandolin he carries all over the place. But now they're both gone, one after the other, and even if they do come back they might not remember him.]

[He's lost them, and now he's lost too.]

[When he sends the text in late afternoon, he's sitting on the back of his Tyranitar, who's Surfing--more like drifting really--in the harbor just off the beach. He wore out most of his desire to take his loss out on breakable objects and trees yesterday, and now he's settling for having his Tropius and Vaporeon viciously decimate the local Tentacool population. And while it's hard to see from the shore, he looks, well. Disheveled is a nice way of putting it.]

44th Transformation [video/action for Seafoam Islands | VERY BACKDATED to sometime last week]

[When the feed turns on, the only real illumination is coming from the 'Gear itself and from the brightly flickering tail of a Charizard in the background. They're inside a cave, the walls glittering with ice. Envy is holding the 'Gear and has only a thin veneer of a polite act over his currently very displeased mood. France is standing just behind him, and not looking much better; his expression is a little more openly grudging and frustrated. Their breath is visible even in the low light, and Envy is wearing what appears to be two coats, a scarf, and earmuffs. France is meanwhile dressed in more water resistant clothing.]

Hey, network. We were just wondering if anyone's been through the Seafoam caves recently.

[Envy's grin is very strained, for all he's trying to seem totally calm and relaxed. He's very frustrated. France mutters an addition: ]

No one should come here. It's a God-forsaken place.

[Envy glances back to France, briefly, shifting the 'Gear to keep anyone from seeing the 'halp I don't want to explain to the network that we're lost in a cave' look. This gives anyone watching a clear view of the Charizard and Tyranitar trying to maneuver a huge boulder that's gotten caught in a corner. Then the camera is back on Envy and France.]

There are a lot of boulders blocking the way out. Does anyone know another way around?

[It's a pretty succinct explanation coming from France. They really want out of these caves.]

We'd appreciate any information at all.

[Envy grins again, still too wide to be genuine, and turns off the feed.]

[ooc: Very late post fourth wall joint post! France's dialogue used with permission, and Envy and France will both be replying to threads.]

42nd Transformation [video/action for Goldenrod]

[Envy is looking uncharacteristically nervous when he turns the feed on. His hair is tied back in a messy ponytail--the sort of messy hinting that he didn't actually have any idea how to do it right and just wanted these green things out of his face--and there are bags under his eyes like he didn't sleep the night before. In fact, he hadn't, as he's been wandering Goldenrod with a purpose since the past afternoon. There's a worried-looking Tyranitar standing a few feet back and to the side, just barely in the frame. Envy clears his throat.]

A-ah, I heard there were a lot of people connected to this, i-is there anyone who can help me?

[Chimera carefully shuffles a few steps closer and leans down as though to nudge Envy's head, but Envy makes a noise that's almost a squeak and half hops to the side to get away, glancing back and forth from the camera to the Tyranitar nervously.]

I'm looking for my family. [He takes a deep breath, looking more earnest now.] I really need to find them, I think they're in danger.

If anyone can help me, if it's not too much trouble, please let me know.

[The feed turns off, and the Yamask-possessed Envy returns to his searching. Chimera follows behind him, very fretful over the sudden change and lack of recognition from his trainer.]
