[Pay no attention to the small child bounding across Johto on the back of a Pyoroar. He's just doing his thing, and seems pretty enthused by it.]

Thiiiis iiiiiis SOOOO COOL.

[HE'S ON THE BACK OF A GIANT FIRE BREATHING LION. NOTHING CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG.]

Hey, big guy, can you do any tricks?

[...and he is met with silence. Steven shrugs it off.] Okay then, no tricks. I'll just pet you. You're so warm. Wooow.
dangerousidol: (♣ Guess this means you take back)

[personal profile] dangerousidol 2015-04-25 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Rise is minding her own business when she sees the Pyroar and what appeared to be a boy on its back. Oh. That wasn't too unusual. Fukuro, her Noctowl, is curious and takes off. It only takes a moment before he's side by side with the Pyroar.

Rise, of course, panics.]


F-Fukuro! Stop bothering everyone!
cookiecats: (☆ really??)

[personal profile] cookiecats 2015-04-25 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Don't worry, Rise! Steven doesn't mind. In fact, his face lights up when he sees the Noctowl flutter over.]

Oh, hey! You're a big owl, aren't you? Shouldn't you be asleep? I thought birds needed their beauty rest.

[He reaches out to touch the Noctowl's head.] Don't worry. I think you're beautiful just the way you are.

[It's then that Steven notices Rise, and coaxes the Pyroar to slow down to a halt. Steven scrambles off the lion's back with a little huff. He has stubby legs, okay!] Uh, hi. Is this your owl?

[Fukuro is more than happy to be petted, happily cooing at Steven.

When Steven stops, Fukuro lands... and flops on the ground. Rise sighs before nodding at the small boy.]


Yes... he loves meeting people, so he keeps flying off. I'm sorry!

[She bows to him, mostly out of embarrassment.]
cookiecats: (☆ OH BOY!)

[personal profile] cookiecats 2015-04-25 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Yay! Petting. Steven will happily keep petting him, then, even as he turns his attention to Rise.] Heh heh, don't worry about it. He's cute! He can be friendly all he wants.
dangerousidol: (♥ But I can't let you go)

[personal profile] dangerousidol 2015-04-25 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Rise as to blink. Wow, this kid was really okay with that? If he loves Pokémon that much, she'll be nice to him. He is a kid after all.

She walks over and picks Fukuro up, who just hoots softly.]


Right... well, he can't stand very well, so.. maybe hug him to keep him from falling over?
cookiecats: (☆ ok it was worse than i thought)

[personal profile] cookiecats 2015-04-25 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
[OH NO! That's bad news! Steven takes that news with shock and horror.] O-Oh, don't worry big guy, we won't let you down! [In a literal sense.

Steven reaches up to smoosh his hands in those fluffy feathers.]
dangerousidol: (♥ And honestly)

[personal profile] dangerousidol 2015-04-25 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
[She has to admit this kid was cute. Fukuro is very happy now, nuzzling Steven with all the love he can muster. What a wonderful human!

Rise giggles as she crouches down beside him.]


I have other Pokémon, too!
cookiecats: (☆ you should also do the thing!)

[personal profile] cookiecats 2015-04-25 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Steven is so happy. He giggles and continues hugging the big owl friend.


...and, of course, his face lights up when Rise says that. Look at him. Look at that face. You gotta show him now, okay.]
dangerousidol: (♥ Cause we're young and restless)

[personal profile] dangerousidol 2015-04-25 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Rise laughs softly and nods before standing up. She cups her hands around her mouth and shouts.]

Hey everyone~! It's time to get together~!

[It takes a moment before several Pokémon come running or floating over. There's an Eevee, Ducklett, Meowstic, Pachirisu, and a Floette.]

These are all of my Pokémon~
cookiecats: (☆ oh my gosh)

[personal profile] cookiecats 2015-04-25 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
[Holy shit.

Steven is kind of speechless.]

Ooooh my gosh. [He approaches them, nearly vibreating with excitement.]
You have so many!
dangerousidol: (♥ And you love the game)

[personal profile] dangerousidol 2015-04-25 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
[She makes sure that Fukuro lands on his back gently before going over and crouching down.]

There's people who have a lot more. I'm a little pickier about mine, I guess.

[She points to each on in turn.]

This is Himiko. She's an Eevee. Beside her is my Ducklett, Ahiru. The next is Ritsuka, a Pachirisu! The Floette is Sakuya. And last, but not least, is my Meowstic Nanako!
cookiecats: (☆ i'm gonna do the thing.)

[personal profile] cookiecats 2015-04-25 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[Steven is sure to say hello to each of them in turn. He sits, and lets them all gather around him, pleased as punch.] I dunno, this is still a lot! I only have one pet at home.
dangerousidol: (♥ Or it's gonna go down in flames)

[personal profile] dangerousidol 2015-04-26 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Himiko just nuzzles his hand. She wants to be petted. Nanko sat down silently beside him, while Ritsuka danced around with Sakuya. Ahiru just waddles up to him and quacks.]

Really? I never had a pet before I came here. My little friends here are all so amazing, though!
