[behold, Johto network: a Weedle! half of a Weedle's face, anyway; it's nested comfortably against the pokégear and is clearly not interested in its goofy-looking new Trainer trying to get it back in its pokéball. Sora's hand is visible every so often as he tries to pry the Weedle off of his pokégear, but that bug ain't budgin'- it even takes a few shots at Sora's hand with its stinger every so often, yelling out a "Weedle!" in warning. every attempt to plain recall the Weedle results in what Sora would consider some pretty impressive dodging for a giant stinging worm, if said giant stinging worm wasn't trying to dodge him. the pokégear is Weedle's territory now, buddy, best find yourself a new one.]

Oh, come on!

[completely cowed by a bug, fantastic! at least Riku isn't around to see this.. if one happens to be around Route 30/31, they'll probably see Sora scooting toward his pokégear on all fours, pokéball held out for a surprise attack. he got the bug in the ball once, he's going to do it again, gosh darnit.]

Well.. He's got some work to do before he's really suave, but you'll see, Riku! He's already well on his way.

Oh, c'mon. He's a bug.

[He shakes his head.]

You'll see!

[that just bars repeating, and besides, Beedrills can learn Swagger. chew on that!]

Hey, you've got your Ivysaur with you, right? Can I meet her?

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

Right. Just give me a second...

[ And...

Woop. Here comes his grumpysaur. ]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Hey there!

[Sora's gonna crouch down to grumpysaur's level, offering a big friendly smile. c'mon, grumpysaur, look at that face! you can't be grumpy at that face!]

[She'll just snort and turn away. Pfff.]

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Hey! I know you'd rather be all haughty and too good to talk to me, but if you just turn around and spare me five minutes, you can go back to being all haughty and too good to talk to me. Okay?

[ She grunts and then... tries to vine whip Sora in the face.

Yeah, Riku doesn't look too pleased about that. ]

Cut it out.

[newhero.livejournal.com]

Augh!

[it's a direct hit, cap'n! Sora reels back, his hands clapped over his face, his eyes squinched shut, and-- yup, yup he's bleeding. good show, grumpysaur.]

action;

[islandshore.livejournal.com]

Sora!

[Oh, that's it. BACK into the ball, Vine goes, as Riku hurries over to Sora's side.]

You okay?

action;

[newhero.livejournal.com]

... Yeah.

[he's still got his hands clamped firmly over his nose in an attempt to stop the bleeding- sheesh, at least all Dapper can do is sting and be a general inconvenience.]
