keychained | [018; video/action for goldenrod]

[hey there, Johto! it's New Year's Eve, and as such the network is receiving a video feed from Father Time himself-- who knows where the hobbling little bearded old man came from, but he's currently curled up warm and toasty leaning up against the inn at Goldenrod, with his hat and his windbreaker and his scarf and his Girafarig blanket and-- wait. it's just Sora.]

[it appears he's wearing as many Christmas presents as he could pile on today (yes, the beard was a Christmas present. it's long and gray and glorious and one of these days he'll notice the stuffed pidgey in there, too). and when he starts speaking, it sounds like Father Time is having a really difficult... time... keeping a straight face.]

... My egg exploded into a dinosaur! See? [the feed turns to reveal a very tiny Tropius-- even though she's just a baby, it's pretty obvious that she's on the small side... probably around knee height to Trainer. the Tropius squeaks in greeting and flaps a leaf like she's trying to wave.]

The pokédex said that these guys start to grow their favorite fruit around their necks because it's the only thing they eat. Sooo, I was wondering... Has anybody seen a star-shaped fruit around? I already checked the stores here, but no luck.

.... Maybe you shouldn't train her too much, just to be extra sure.

*sob, curse his girlishness.*

I-I don't know... I'm... I'm really curious, now...

-- Don't murder anybody, Hayate!

--eh?! Wh-where did that come from?! I-I won't murder anyone ever!

No, I mean-- if it's actually possible to kill someone with cute...

That's, um-- At the very worst there might be a nosebleed if someone is really into cute things...

A nosebleed? ... Why would their nose bleed?

I've never understood the logic behind it, but that's just how it works.

[... so Sora watches Miya for a minute, then puts a hand over his nose to check for bleeding.]

Huh...

... I don't think you're the type who would get one, Sora-san.

What kinda person do you have to be to get a nosebleed from cute?

A... slightly perverted one, usually.

... Ohhh.

No-- no, Miya is cute, but not-- [one can practically hear his brain deflating.]

That, um... That's usually a action reserved for looking at girls, yeah.

That's... still just really weird. I've never seen Donald get any nosebleeds.

That's... probably because he's a duck. And because he's a Disney character.

Well, yeah he's a duck-- and a... a what?

--eh? Er... Has... has no one ever mentioned Disney to you before?

You mean like the world? I think that's where Donald and Goofy are from...

... ah! R-Right... It's a whole world on its own for you, Minnie-san and the others isn't it?

Well, yeah... Is it different for you or something?

... it's a series of theme parks and a big Company where I come from.

So... it's a company that holds giant carnivals, you mean?

[poor boy's never been to a theme park of Disney caliber.]

Ahhh... Not exactly. It's more like they have a bunch of tiny cities all over the world dedicated to rides, excitement and family fun! I've never been to a Disney theme park, but they're still a lot of fun when you go with a friend.

... Does King Mickey know about this? Geez, I wonder how he manages all of that.
