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. ]

Mm! There are quite a lot of them, actually. Some of them are even quite cute!

*Do not trust this opinion, as Hayate is bias.*

They're troublemakers though, so keep that in mind if you do consider one.

Cute... ghosts?

[ she'll believe it when she sees it. ]

What do you mean by troublemakers? Do they... do they go around haunting and possessing people?

There are a few out there! Shuppet in particular are rather adorable. ... Most are a little eerie, though...

But... it's a pretty weird range, actually! Back around when I first showed up some teleported people off into the far ends of Johto... Normally though it's more along the lines of turning invisible and appearing where and when you least expect it to get a laugh.

. . . kind of like what actual ghosts are like, I guess.

Shuppet, huh? I'll look around for one of those.

[ if only out of morbid curiosity to see an "adorable" ghost. ]

What happened to the people who were teleported? Did they end up okay?

--oh! They were all perfectly okay, yes! It just, ah... Took some of them a good long time to get back to civilization. Some wound up in really out of the way places.

I don't want that to happen to me, so I guess I'll stay away from any ghost pokemon for now.

Don't worry, Makoto-san! That was a one time isolated incident! Not including the multiple other times ghost pokemon have been involved in strange happenings, I think they're mostly safe!

...multiple other times?

[ you aren't very reassuring here hayate!! ]

Mm, like when--

*wait, maybe he shouldn't just prattle on about those like they weren't any big deal when she just showed up...*

... er, would you like to know more, or would you feel better being blissfully unaware of past horrors?

...it's probably better if I don't know, huh?

It's true, sometimes ignorance really is bliss!

That's kind of boring though. Can you at least give me a hint?

... dreams!

Are you sure you don't mean nightmares?

... well, if you want to get technical...

No! It's okay! We don't need to get technical!

--then consider the technicalities disregarded!

[ she lets out a sigh of relief at that. ]

Good. I guess... I guess I'm ready to start adventuring now.

[ she thinks? she actually has no idea. but she feels ready! ]

Sally forth, young idol-turned-trainer! You have a long road ahead of you~!

*He's not sure either, but if it's her he's pretty sure she can wing it and survive!!*

I'll do my best!

[ she's got a lot of catching up to do... ]
