femininity | 1st live [video/action]

[ as the device's screen turns on, you're treated to the sight of two ralts. they don't seem to be doing anything in particular, but that's enough to inspire makoto to pull out of her device. this thing takes pictures, right? she's not entirely sure, but if it's a phone, it's gotta have that kind of function!

so while she fiddles with her device, inadvertently turning it on, she calls out to another person. ]

Hey, Ryo! Ryo! Look! They're cute, aren't they?

[Another voice gives a light giggle at Makoto's excitement. When she's excited like this, even Ryo can't stay worried about their predicament!]

You really like them, don't you Makoto-san...? Though, to be honest, I think they're more "cool" than "cute".

Really? [ no, they definitely look cute to her. she stares a bit longer, before quietly deciding to herself that they're definitely more "cute" than "cool". but more importantly... ]

Oh! I think this is recording. [ uh... whoops? she turns her device so it's facing ryo, figuring they should give their audience something more than two cute pokemon rolling around. ] Um... quick, say something!

Eh?! Why me?!

[Ryo's shocked face takes up the entire screen. What do?! All right, back up back up... Okay, much better. Well, "something" was kinda vague, and arguing with Makoto is something Ryo doesn't want to do, so... A greeting, maybe? That's pretty basic. Time to flash a bright smile!]

Umm... H-How do you do? I'm Ryo Akizuki. I'm an idol from 876 Productions, though I don't think it really matters right now... With me, is, um... [Ryo tries to discreetly whisper, though it's pretty audible.] Makoto-san, maybe you should say something too?

[ at those words, maktoo turns the camera around so that she's the one on screen now. ]

I'm Makoto Kikuchi, from 765 Production! If I have any fans here, I don't mind giving autographs! [ she laughs a bit as she says it, making clear that she's just joking. she's hardly that popular yet. ] But anyways... it's nice to meet you!

[ she nods, satisfied by the message, before turning back to Ryo. she thinks the message has ended now, though obviously it hasn't... ]

That was good, right?

[Ryo nods, satisfied.]

Yes! You're amazing as always. [Though anything Makoto does is amazing to Ryo---] Hm? It looks like... you might have left it on.

Eh? No, I made sure I... ack, you're right!

[ makoto fumbles around with the device a bit before finally, this time successfully, turning it off. ]

... eh?

OH! Erm, I-I didn't really... I mean, I've fought off evil spirits and demons of sorts before, but that's not really anything I'm planning to go out on a quest for... There are plenty of people better suited for that than I am.

Eh... Ehehehe... With you and Makoto-san both covering my back like this, I'm going to start feeling like I have a safety network of some sort...

*Secret bro...!! Hayate is just quite happy to have such a nice ~~girl~~ idol backing him up like this!! Especially in such a embarrassing area......*

Some people like to steal other people's Pokémon or hurt others, uu-.. They're definitely bad people.

[ but Maria's a kid, so she pulls that down to another level too - ] And then there's people who say witches don't exist, they're definitely bad people too!

[ at least Maria easily goes along with the topic change - she's just a little kid, after all, so she doesn't question it. ]

Maria's been here for over a year now, uu-! Going towards two years full of Johto fun..!

Evil spirits and demons is already pretty impressive...

[ don't sell yourself short hayate. ]

I didn't even know those were real.

So there are thieves... well, if I meet one of them, I'll teach 'em a lesson!

[ though the other point is a bit more confusing. ] ...are there witches here? [ and is that particularly important for some reason? ]

Really? It's hard to tell when they would be impressive to people in a place like this...

*underselling his worth is a Key Feature... And after a moment, he tacks on as if it's no big deal:*

Though to be honest, it's hard to disavow knowledge of spirits and the like when you're being haunted by one...

Edited 2012-07-01 02:42 (UTC)

... ara, that's right, it isn't~!

I nearly forgot...

*the queen of unphased mountain.*

Yeah, haha, that would make things hard! You can't really disavow...

[ ... ]

Wait, what!? Are you... you're being haunted!? By who!? What!? Why!?

[Oh goodness. In a way, that's more impressive than how Ryo did.

Either way, he's glad both of them are okay. He lets out a sigh of relief.]

Hah... Safe... Um, are you okay?

Actually, I'm surprised that you don't have anyone backing you up. Especially when it seems like you've been here for a long time...

[It can't possibly be that Hayate's that unlucky! ... Right?]

Speaking of which, do you think it's easier to travel alone or in a group?

[T-TWO YEARS...]

That long?! All by yourself?

That's not something you're supposed to easily forget...

[Whatever. Being the only sane man in this series is suffering.]

How did you even manage to get that far away....? I didn't even think there was more than Johto here.

[ makoto lets out a slight of relief, before turning to ryo and nodding. ]

Yeah... I wasn't the one fighting, after all.

[ she goes to her ralts, patting it on the head as a reward.

...though despite what she says, she seems to be more tired out than her pokemon. ]

Yeah, it's a good thing your Ralts wasn't hurt too badly.

[Sorry, even if Makoto's his senpai, Ryo has to say something about this.]

Makoto-san, maybe you should read the guidebook in your bag....

*oh. he didn't entirely mean to let that one slip.*

... er. Would you believe me if I said it was an otaku priest?

Ah, I have a few! It's just that whether said people are here or not tends to fluctuate a little... And in in certain areas I definitely don't have one... More I have enablers.

*Yeah, looking back, he's realizing his friends here are pretty varied...*

As for traveling, I've always traveled with a group! From day one in fact! I'm sure there are times where being alone would have been easier, but having a group to travel with definitely makes it more fun~! Though it can make privacy a bit of a challenge... Especially since I've always traveled with girls... Aside from when Keiichi was here, of course. Then privacy became more of a battle...

*mmm, nostalgic traveling memories. Don't mind him as he reflects a bit.*

[ ...she did look at it earlier, but...

okay she definitely needs to give it a more detailed look. she nods, pulling it out. ]

I guess we really should hang around here for a bit before going on.

[ oh. that somehow makes it... less... ]

At least it's not something scary then...

Would you tell everyone your top secret dance moves? It's kind of like that. Only insiders get to know.

[ you distract her if you mention witches, Makoto.. she was about to cheer her on, but instead just the very mention of witches in her question makes her think only about that. ]

Of course there's witches here..! Maria's one of them!

U-.. uu-, wait, not by myself..! [ she quickly shakes her head. ] Maria's not alone here at all! Even if Mama isn't here, there's a lot of nice new friends, and Lion is with Maria too, uu-! Lion is Maria's cousin..!

Really? That's amazing! [ she looks quite awed by that, before realizing... ]

What exactly does it mean to be a witch?

Ding! Ding! Ding! That's right! Just remember to pay attention to how strong your Pokemon are. If you're in a battle that you can't win, you gotta run.

[ hey, as long as she doesn't deny witches Maria doesn't have to go into creepy mode, instead she just giggles in a way that's happy and much less creepy. ]

It means using your magic to make life a lot more wonderful! Magic used to make people happy..!
